Chapter 854: Descending Yunnan Again (8)

"This boy, these colorful flowers of yours are all lace, right?" An Indian lady dressed in a sari asks a question to Cher who is selling lace through an interpreter. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Yes, yes, these are laces for decoration, which can be sewn on clothes, skirts."

"What kind of material is this?"

"It's made of chemical fiber cloth, and it's very strong."

"What is chemical fiber?"

"Your inquiry is a bit embarrassing. These chemical fiber cloths were not produced in the Qing Dynasty and were bought from a country far away. Chemical fiber means chemical fiber, that is, this kind of cloth is not woven from cotton and silk, but is extracted from a material called petroleum, so it is relatively strong. ā€

"Oh! Oil, that must be strong, is it a ruler? Is it your ruler of the Qing Dynasty? ā€

"Yes, fifteen wen for one foot of lace."

"It's too cheap, it's too cheap, can we buy a little more? Is it a hundred feet? This lace is perfect for our Indian women's saris, buying less is not enough. That's how I bought it and sewed it into the sari. The saris that we Indian women wear need beautiful lace. ā€

"Yes, yes, depending on whether you really buy it, I will sell more to you, your clothes are really beautiful."

"Thanks for the compliment."

"It's a total of one or two or five pieces of silver, and the size can be looser."

"Thank you, thank you." The noble lady looked anxious, as if she was afraid that Xue'er would change her mind and not sell it to her. Cher carefully measured the lace. She has a ruler of one foot, and a five-foot one, and measuring five feet twenty times is a hundred feet, and measuring one foot at a time, it is easy for someone in the middle to forget it. When Cher measured the size, she never pulled the lace very tightly, it was all loose, and it came out a little more. This method is called "Liuyuqing", and it was learned from Chen Ruiqian's uncle. People in the true Buddhist sect never take advantage of others, and of course they can't all be given away for nothing. Buddhist laymen still have to live and support their families, and they must be deducted from the main loss of virtue and longevity, and they must be found back in blessings and lifespan. The business in the house has never been deceived in secret, not intentionally, but habitually.

That lady was also a Buddhist, and she could see what the traitor was doing. I admire Xue'er's benevolence and righteousness, don't look at any trivial things, you can also know a person's character, and those profiteers who specialize in shortening their hands and feet on goods are the difference between heaven and earth.

"Do you come to every market?" Madame asked.

"Pretty much."

"What else do you have to see?"

"What do you need?"

"I can't say it either, as long as it's beautiful, women can use it, no matter how much it costs."

"Then you can come to the Jade Dragon Trading House over there in the next episode, I have a few beautiful things in my hands. This is something I personally think is good-looking, you may not be satisfied, you can take a look. ā€

"Thank you, thank you." The lady went away satisfied.

This time I came to Yunnan, Yun'er brought a lot of exotic headdresses to Bing'er and Xue'er, that is, the pile of yarn palace flowers, velvet flowers, silk flowers worn by women, as well as garlands, silk mesh flowers, fungus flowers, hairpins, etc., as well as agate bracelets, Buddhist beads, stainless steel earrings, rings, little girls' plastic hairpins and so on.

In this bazaar, precautions were strengthened, in addition to Bing'er, Mingming, Xiao Linzi, and Xiao Liuzi, the four men watched from side to side, and Qing'er, the female bodyguard, followed Xue'er every step of the way. Don't let the thief steal it, don't rob it, and don't let Xue'er rub oil on the salty pig's hands.

At the next fair, the Indian lady came here early to wait. When Cher put her goods on the table one by one, the lady, who had always been reserved, let out a low exclamation: "Buddha, where did this beautiful thing come from?" ā€

At this time, a small black hand reached out from under the table, grabbed a hairpin on the edge of the table, and before he could take it, something bit his hand and neck. When I looked up, I fainted, it was a snow-white little tiger. Bing'er can turn Xiaobai into a big tiger or a small tiger. In the southern rainforest, there is indeed a white-haired tiger with a very light pattern. But it is very fierce, and the big white tiger can bite off a person's neck with one bite. Bing'er turned Xiaobai into a little tiger in order to see that the goods were not stolen or robbed.

"Hey, you're pretending to be dead after taking our stuff?" The little eunuch Liuzi said unceremoniously.

The thief opened his eyes, but did not see the little tiger, thinking that his eyes were spent, and wanted to run.

"Hey, you haven't returned our stuff yet." Xiao Liuzi pointed to the hairpin in the thief's hand.

The thief is a local child, who doesn't understand the Beijing dialect spoken by Xiao Liuzi, but is very afraid. The first thing a thief does when caught is to be beaten. There are really people who were killed on the spot, beggars, most of them were orphans, and they were killed.

This thief is very shrewd, he saw that the person selling goods in this small stall has a good eye, so he quickly returned the hairpin to Xiao Liuzi, and then folded his hands, chanted "Amitabha" vigorously, nodded and bowed, with a pitiful look.

Bing'er is very pitiful to the little beggar, who wants to ask for food if it is not a last resort? So he took the little poor one aside. Bing'er couldn't beat him, and he couldn't understand what he said, so he gave him a few money, and the little guy didn't nod his head anymore, and he disappeared after a "squeak". Bing'er shook her head helplessly.

Here, Cher was not affected at all and measured the lady's lace. There were several of them, and each of them cost a hundred feet. A good amount of money is charged.

The money was collected in a zippered money bag on the waistband of his trousers. The lady's attention was on the delicate lace, and a hand reached for her purse. Qing'er beside her grabbed this wrist like lightning, and then there was a ghost crying wolf's howl, maybe Qing'er's strength was a little stronger, which hurt the thief. This is an adult thief, Qing'er looks down on such a person the most, he doesn't work to support himself at a young age, steals money and steals, maybe it's the money that he steals from other people's treatment. And he pinched his wrist, and the man howled like a pig, saying that his wrist was broken. But when I lifted it up, I looked good, and it didn't hurt at all.

Everyone laughed at him, don't steal if you're afraid of being beaten, and dare to shout.

Cher felt as if she had a lot of hands reaching out for her goods. She immediately began to pack up the goods and said to Bing'er: "Hurry up and close the stall, there seem to be a lot of thieves around us, surrounding us." ā€

"It's okay, it's okay, there's no need to close the stall, I'll let them taste the feeling of insects crawling." After a while, a few people around him began to look like the biaozi of "Yushu Linfeng", writhing all over their bodies and grabbing them with both hands. But the rest of the people are fine. Needless to say, anyone who writhes is a thief. But he hasn't stolen yet, and it can't be said that he did. Qing'er has a way to take these thieves away, put them together, and as soon as they blow, they will go to the sky. It turns out that Qing'er also has the ability of "Long Wind and Ten Thousand Miles".

Here, Xue'er has calmly sold out the goods, and after carefully calculating it, she has not lost a single item, nor has she asked for less money, of course, not more. There were also women around Xue'er, asking her if she would come to the next market to sell lace, and Xue'er said, "Come, I must come." ā€

Cher brought several rolls of bucket-thick lace, and sold them all. Most of them are dozens of feet, and some are three or five feet, and they are all sold out in less than one morning. The four men carried a table and walked back, and on the way, they met several big men with their waists crossed, standing in the middle of the road. stopped Bing'er and a few people, and he didn't know what he was talking about. Mrs. Ashmita glanced at the plainclothes guards beside her, and the guards came behind the big man. Who knew that the four big men didn't seem to see it at all, and continued to intercept Bing'er and the others. Bing'er was naturally not afraid, and asked: "If you rob other people's property in broad daylight, you are not afraid of going to jail?" ā€

A few of him obviously didn't understand and looked very impatient to grab Bing'er's clothes. Bing'er had already recited the "Beast Gathering Formula" and "Animal Taming Formula". I saw these people screaming and putting their hands into their clothes, scratching and scratching like monkeys.

A few people couldn't get enough of scratching and scratching, so they began to undress, and the women screamed and ran in all directions.

"Obviously, you and your eldest brother will go back first." The eldest brother Bing'er said is naturally Xue'er. Cher wears men's clothes when she goes out, otherwise it will be a lot of trouble if she is so beautiful.

Xue'er knew that Bing'er could deal with these riffraff, so she said to Mingming, "Let's go first." ā€

"It's not so easy to leave, this brother is a woman, and he doesn't look like a man, it's too beautiful. We are from the rainforest cottage, come back with us to be a lady of the village...... Hey, what's in your pants? Snake! It's a snake, I'm bitten by a poisonous snake when it's over. "I was still arrogant just now, but after a while, it was like mourning, and tears and snot were rushing together. In fact, where there is a snake, it is an idea of Bing'er, which makes him feel like he has been bitten by a snake. He too, he didn't even look at it, and he was going to die or live if he had a wound.

"Let's go, leave him alone." Bing'er didn't move at all, and scared the thieves who blocked the way away. However, it can be seen that it is not easy to do a small business, either a thief or a bandit.

"Wow! We are destined to meet thousands of miles away, but we don't know each other because we don't know each other. ā€

Bing'er burst out laughing when she saw it, who else but James? .

"Correct you, the second sentence is not to meet the other side, what does it mean to not know the other side? It doesn't fit and doesn't rhyme, and it's awkward to listen to. "When old friends meet, they don't care if they say it is deep or shallow.

"I accept your opinions, my Chinese language skills are really bad."

"It's okay, if you don't care, we can help teach you some allusions in Chinese, can you teach us your French?"

"Yes, yes, yes, no, no, yes!"

"Tell me, why did you disappear as soon as you arrived in Kunming?"

"It's not missing, it's doing something. I'm going to ask my friend, who has a lot of yarn, to hurry up and bring some yarn from the sea, and let the little fairy recruit some local girls to process it. You don't know that the lace we ordered last time went back like a gust of wind. I was almost eaten myself. Whisper to you, I have made a fortune, a medium fortune. James' eyes widened and he had a very serious expression.

What is medium wealth? Bing'er Xue'er laughed at him.

James said seriously, "Really! I promised God that I was not lying, that is, it was sold to the royal family, and the price could not be too low, and if it was low, they would look down on it. I would like to ask if you can still process those laces? ā€

"Yes, yes, only me and Sister Qing'er are women in the team."

"I still prefer the kind of lace you hook. If the manpower is not enough, I will recruit some ingenious girls in the local area, and I can't learn from you for a few days? ā€

"Not to mention, it's a good idea. We don't bring too many goods, this is not in the house, many things are not very convenient. I don't know which kind of goods you buy back will sell the best. ā€

"It's the kind of basket shoes that don't have heels. I made a note of it, wait a minute. James took out a notebook from his pocket, flipped through a few pages, and said, "And that little thing called a handbag, lace of cloth, small animals made of cloth, that long necklace and transparent curtains......"

"Wait a minute, Mr. James, we don't have much of what you said, but we can do it on the spot. You can recruit female workers, but you can't do the kind of lace you said you can't do by hand. ā€

"Then recruit female workers, I will pay for the materials, you will pay for the technology, and the profits will be divided in half. I'm sorry, but I want to say that you must not have suffered. Ah no, I won't let you suffer, don't fight, just do what I ask. Little fairy, what materials did you say you wanted to buy? ā€

"The material requirements for making handbags are not too soft fabrics, they should be gorgeous, beautiful and generous, cotton cloth can also be, and national fabrics can also be, but they can't be too soft."

"Okay, I see. Brother Ruan can help with the recruitment of female workers. He is a local, so he knows what kind of character the girl living in the neighborhood is and how many people are needed? ā€

"I don't know how many handbags you'll need."

"Ten thousand."

"Huh? 10,000, can you sell so much? ā€

"Don't worry, I don't necessarily sell these things in France, but also Italy, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Greece, Ireland, Sweden and other countries, let alone 10,000, 100,000 will be no problem. Can we make a contract for 100,000 handbags? ā€

Bing'er, Xue'er, Mingming and others looked at each other. Cher said: "Of course, we are happy that you have a large number of orders. But if we process 100,000, the materials we have and those good-looking accessories will not be enough. How many people do you want to recruit for processing? ā€

"Otherwise, can I go to the capital and go to your house to find the big housekeeper surnamed Tian? There are many maids in your house, and you can write to him to confirm that I am not an impostor. And then we'll process it in your house. ā€

"Well, I guess so. Then we will write a letter to you and bring it to Mr. Tian. But isn't it a waste of time for you to run back and forth like this? ā€

"That's a good deal, it's a lot of money. The manager you are talking about is the very handsome young man who is very authoritative in the house, right? ā€

"He's my uncle, do you think he's young? He's in his thirties. ā€

"Of course, young, handsome, and wise."

"Thank you for your review. If you are in a hurry, I will write now. You wait a while, it won't take long. ā€

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll wait here."

"We'd better go back to the inn."

"Okay! Okay, too, great. ā€

A couple of people laughed, what kind of grammar is this.

When Cher handed over her secret letter to James, James looked at it seriously with joy: "I know this, it's the English alphabet." Huh? What is it? The letters are in English, why can't they be connected? ā€

"This is not the English alphabet, it's the Chinese alphabet." Cher held back a smile and said, "This is unique to our country. ā€
