Chapter 34: Business is Good
Gu took out a box, put the bracelet in place, and pointed to the printed silk cloth next to him: "Do you want to write something on the silk cloth and give it to that young lady?" β
The man in ink was a little surprised: "You are well prepared." β
"I sincerely hope that the marriage will be successful."
The man in ink chose a crescent-white silk cloth and put it in the box, and said that he could write directly if he had pen and ink, but the man refused politely, and he didn't force it, thinking that he should want to write in private.
The man in Tsing Yi also chose a pair, but they were all put in a box, and two pieces of silk cloth were also selected.
"How much?" The man asked.
"A bracelet is a tael of silver, and if you buy a bracelet, you will not be charged for silk cloth and boxes."
"This price is a bit expensive." The man in ink smiled and shook his head.
"Childe, the maple leaf is not red every day, and this bracelet is not available everywhere, what you bought is just a heart, one or two silver, it should be worth it."
The two looked at each other and smiled, and shook their heads again, and they couldn't refute what they said.
After the three of them left, the vendors on both sides breathed a sigh of relief, and Li San looked at Gu with admiration: "Little brother, you are really bold, those few seem to be dignitaries, you are not afraid that they will find someone to arrest you?" β
"The biggest official here is definitely not them, so it's not their turn to teach me a lesson, besides, the maple appreciation conference is a good thing, who will make trouble at this time? I'm just doing my job, so there's nothing to be afraid of. "Gu said it very casually.
"Little brother, you are really good, the news is so well-informed, we just watched that there were guards coming to Qingyun Mountain, here every year there are dignitaries with their families, you actually know who is coming this time, then tell me, who is it?" Li San was also curious.
"Third Brother Li, there are some things, the less you know, the better." Gu patted him on the shoulder, too gossipy people, not with a firm mouth, not calm, she didn't plan to befriend them.
At this time, a carriage in the distance slowly walked over, and a clean-looking maid got out of the car and began to ask: "How do you sell the bracelet here?" β
After Gu introduced it, the maid went to the carriage to reply, and after a while, Gu saw that the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and it was a teenage girl inside.
Gu saw the maid coming over again: "It's inconvenient for my young lady to get out of the car, give me the best bracelet you have here, hurry up." β
"Inconvenient? I'm here for the marriage line, you are her maid, are you sure you want to arrange her marriage? Gu tapped his palm with a fan, and sat there leisurely, without the slightest intention of giving her a bracelet.
Pretend to be delicate, if you feel shy, you can put on an umbrella or a veil, even if you are really embarrassed, you can't talk well, what is it called letting her take one, she is not her subordinate, if you want to hurry, then I will slow down.
"You! Do you know who my young lady is, if you are said to be in your stall, even your life will not escape! The maid glared at Gu angrily.
Gu just sold a bracelet for a tael of silver, and the vendors on both sides were already red-eyed, but their own things were completely far from Gu, they sold either food or use, and the price was also very low, so they could only blush, and now they saw that someone blamed Gu, and several people were happy in their hearts.
After Gu was done, he propped his arms on his stall and looked at the maid seriously: "This girl, I don't know who your young lady is, and I also believe that she has the ability to make my job unsafe, but I want to ask you to ask your young lady, what are you doing at the maple appreciation conference today?" I'm just a common person, of course I'm not afraid of making a big deal out of it, are your young lady sure you want to do this? The people who came and went were all watching. β
The maid didn't expect that Gu was not only not afraid, but had a strong attitude, and was about to attack again, when a voice suddenly came from the carriage: "Cui'er, don't be rude." β
A woman in a pink dress wearing a veil slowly got out of the car with the help of her grandmother.
"Miss, why did you come down, it's this person who doesn't understand the rules, go back and tell Master SΓΉ, he ......"
"Cui'er!" The old lady interrupted her sternly when Cui'er complained, this person knew about this maple appreciation conference, it can be seen that he is not an ordinary person, if something really happens, it will not be good for the reputation of the young lady, not to mention that just now they saw that the son of the Ministry of Labor was also a handrope selected by dismounting.
"Boss, it was the little woman who was abrupt just now." The woman bowed slightly, expressing her apology.
Gu didn't pursue it, but said in a soothing tone: "Marriage needs sincerity, I don't mean to embarrass Miss below, the so-called sincerity is spiritual, not to mention that the scenery of Qingyun Mountain is very beautiful, Miss can also come down and have a look." β
The woman nodded, didn't say anything more, looked carefully in front of the stall, and felt that she would reach out and feel it.
Finally, after picking it out, Gu divided it into two boxes and put it in, chose a piece of silk cloth and put it together, gave the silver and left, without saying a word.
After the carriage left, the peddlers were jealous again, and this time it was not difficult for her, it was really unfair, a bracelet was sold for a tael of silver, hey, why didn't they think of it?
After that, the business is getting better and better, after the sun comes out completely, the temperature has risen a lot, many sons are riding horses, and most of them will stay when they meet the stalls that Gu Li, and some people are too expensive to want to press the price.
"The past few sons and young ladies were all bought at this price, and they can't be one person at one price, not to mention, the marriage is equal, does the son want a cheaper marriage?"
One sentence annoyed the other party, the man wanted to argue, but the people who were traveling with him persuaded me one by one, and everyone forgot it.
When the bracelet was sold for more than half, Gu saw two familiar carriages, and the coachman in front also knew it, it was from the Prime Minister's house, it seemed that Gu Weiwei and Gu Yiyi were here.
At this time, a gust of mountain wind blew, lifted the curtain, and Gu saw that there was a red sandalwood string piano in Gu Yiyi's carriage, which brought out a faint fragrance with the autumn wind.
It seems that Gu Yiyi has made a lot of money, this time she must be going to show her skills, if she can go, she will definitely let her lotus flower become a joke, but unfortunately, God will let her go.
Just when Gu was distracted, a carriage stopped in front of her, and it was Zhang's eldest maid who came down, the cuizhu last time.
"Is there anything special about it?"
Gu looked cold: "All the styles are here, buy what you like, if you don't like it, you can't do it below, your young lady is late." β
"Don't you know how to speak human words!" Cuizhu frowned and looked at Gu.
