68 Buy a shop
As the two walked side by side down the street, the first question to consider was what kind of shop they were going to open.
No matter how Yancheng says it, it is also at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it can be regarded as everything, and if you want to do it, you have to do something innovative. Chu Qingluo is good at clothing, and it is most suitable to open a ready-to-wear store designed and produced by himself. According to the situation that there are more men and fewer women in Yancheng, open a shop for women's clothing...... Isn't business a bit harder? It's just that my interest in making men's clothing is not so strong......
It's a pity that the cotton seeds in the backyard of the Chu family really don't give face, and after sowing so many seeds, more than a dozen cotton seedlings have emerged, and I don't know if they can bear fruit in the end. If cotton can be cultivated exponentially, now there is no need to think about it, and you can make a fortune just by making cotton pillows. Chu Qingluo even thought of the name of the pillow, and chose one of the 'Forget Worry Pillow' and 'Ruyi Pillow'.
"Alas......" had a lot of thoughts but couldn't settle down, Chu Qingluo couldn't help but sigh heavily.
Gongsun Yu saw that she had been shaking her head, and she couldn't stand it anymore, so she asked her what was going on? She just told her all her worries and entanglements......
After hearing this, Gongsun Yu had a different opinion from her: "Yancheng is the capital of Ji Kingdom, and there are many more women gathered here than in other places, and the dresses you sell are still unique, so you don't need to worry about not being able to sell them at all." Besides, you can't be so limited, and it's okay to customize men's clothes. ”
"......" Chu Qingluo is right to think about it, high-end customization, pay attention to design and quality, just a precious word. If you don't take the quantity as the leader, you can still enjoy it.
"Okay, that's it." Everyone who studies design will want to have their own brand, but they didn't expect her brand to open in such a distant ancient ......
After making a decision, the aimless two reached an agreement, and their morale came up slowly, intending to immediately find a suitable shop in the middle of the city.
This is the most lively area in Yancheng, and it must be useless to find an empty shop. But Chu Qingluo thought of an idea, remembering that Ziyan had brought her to the largest cloth shop of this generation, and the cloth shop had an excellent business, and the small cloth shop business around it might not be so optimistic, so she decided to try her luck with the small cloth shop......
Their luck is not bad, there are really two small cloth shops nearby, and they are cold. Occasionally, one or two people come and go, and they are empty-handed.
The two chose a relatively clean and tidy display to enter, and an obese man in his thirties greeted them: "Two, what materials do you want to pick?" ”
"Shopkeeper, are you the shopkeeper?" Chu Qingluo asked politely.
"Exactly down there."
After waiting for an affirmative answer, Chu Qingluo first walked around the shop twice, and found that the shop was in the format of two rooms, inside and outside, and it was quite spacious and bright. Only then did he smile and said, "The shopkeeper, I will discuss something with you." ”
It turned out that he didn't come to buy cloth, and the shopkeeper couldn't hide the loss in his heart, and his expression darkened a lot...... "Girl, please say." ”
"I don't know how much money it will cost to buy your shop?"
This straightforward opening remark made the shopkeeper stunned for a moment, and it took a long time to come back to his senses: "You mean...... Do you want all the goods here? ”
"If you can afford it, you want it, and if you can't afford it, you don't want it all." Chu Qingluo smiled, since you want to be a ready-to-wear store, there are ready-made fabrics that can be used, of course, it is the best.
Suddenly someone wanted to buy a shop, and the shopkeeper wanted to ask for a price, but after hearing her ambiguous tone, he couldn't figure out her way, so he had to conservatively open a price of 1,000 gold.
Chu Qingluo silently wrote an exclamation point in his heart! She only has a pitiful hundred gold, and even if she takes all the jewelry given by the empress, it is estimated that she will not be able to make up so much. But on the face, he still pretended to be very calm, and continued to negotiate with the shopkeeper: "Can you do this, I will pay you 100 gold first, and then give you 1,000 gold in two months, what do you think?" ”
"Two months?! Where will I go to collect my debts if you run away? Of course, the shopkeeper couldn't agree, and he looked a little whimsical.
"I can write you an IOU, and I will mortgage the house. That house is worth 5,000 gold! ”
“…… House? The shopkeeper suddenly felt a little moved, and asked, "Where is the house?" ”
Chu Qingluo just wanted to strike while the iron was hot, but was stopped by Gongsun Yu first: "Otherwise, we will give you five hundred gold first, and three months later, we will give you another thousand gold." But only write an IOU, no collateral. A total of fifteen hundred gold, buy your entire shop. ”
I'll go!! Chu Qingluo's eyes widened, Gongsun Yu's arrogance is to pit the rhythm of his daughter-in-law's master!
She just wanted to object, but the shopkeeper had already clapped his hands and applauded: "Then it's decided!" Pay 500 gold first, and then write an IOU for 1,000 gold. "Originally, this shop was worth about 600 gold, and the price of 1,000 gold was just to prevent bargaining, but I didn't expect it to be sold at a total price of 1,500 gold...... This deal is really quite a bargain, and the shopkeeper is happy.
Gongsun Yu didn't say anything, and pulled Chu Qingluo to get the silver ticket.
"Crazy, aren't you?!" The local tyrant didn't do it like that, Chu Qingluo couldn't help but sigh.
"I'm normal, but you, you want to mortgage the house given by the emperor?"
"Who said I was going to mortgage the house in the east of the city?!"
"......" Gongsun Yu stared at her little face incredulously, and it took a long time to calm down: "Are you going to mortgage the Chu family's house?!" ”
Chu Qingluo looked at the sky as if he had been recognized, and muttered in a low voice: "It's a mortgage, not a sale......"
"......" is a stopper, and Gongsun Yu is extremely speechless. Who would have thought that she would be so bold and dare to fight Mrs. Chu's idea.
Seeing his awkward appearance, Chu Qingluo hurriedly explained: "I will definitely be able to make up the money asked for by the shopkeeper within two months, and I will definitely not let the Chu family be taken away, don't you still believe me?" ”
Gongsun Yu frowned: "But you're too risky like this." ”
"What if...... If that fails, we'll move our family to the Chengdong Mansion. But that's the worst-case scenario, and you've got to have faith in me now. ”
He shook his head helplessly: "Be careful that Mrs. Chu picks your skin." It's risky, so you might as well do what I said. ”
"Luxury!" Chu Qingluo criticized him from the bottom of his heart, and asked, "Where can I find five hundred gold?" ”
Gongsun Yu looked at her funny: "Borrow." ”
"If you can borrow it, why do you have to pay a total price of 1,500 gold for the shopkeeper to take such a big advantage?" With so much gold, it hurts to think about it!
"If you don't give more temptation, do you think the shopkeeper can agree to give you the shop in one bite? Besides, three months is enough time. ”
Chu Qingluo pursed his lips in disagreement, but he let out all his words, and he could only feel distressed silently......
This son-in-law is the son-in-law. Gongsun Yu directly took Chu Qingluo to the pawnshop opened by Gongsun Ruyi, and Shengsheng lent a silver ticket equal to five hundred gold with his face.
Chu Qingluo stared at him, with a wicked smile on his face, and deliberately teased him: "You say, if we don't pay back the five hundred gold, what will happen to Lord Gongsun?" ”
The corners of Gongsun Yu's mouth hooked, and an evil smile spread on his face, and he said unhurriedly: "As long as we give birth to a baby, let alone the five hundred gold, it is estimated that my mother will add another five hundred gold as a gift." ”
Chu Qingluo: "......"
Dalliance!! It's definitely naked flirtation! Gongsun Yu is really a wolf!
Seeing that she was suddenly honest, Gongsun Yu kept snickering beside her, who asked her to make fun of him first?
I thought it would take at least a few days to buy a shop, but I didn't expect it to be so smooth...... If it is a problem that can be solved with money, it is not a problem.
The two handed over the silver ticket to the shopkeeper of the cloth shop, and Chu Qingluo reluctantly wrote him an IOU of 1,000 gold and signed it.
The shopkeeper happily took the counted silver tickets into his bosom and handed them the deed, and the matter was done. After taking stock and handing over to them, he handed over the key to Chu Qingluo. In the end, he hummed a little song and walked away with the silver ticket and IOU, and did not forget to remind her that there was a limit of three months......
