Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Clash of Consumption Ideas

Shu Jin felt that Chai Yanfeng's heart was still very strong. If he doesn't even care about other people's eyes, he is afraid of people's strange eyes. She's really going to look down on him.

The two of them sat and pushed one by one, walked a short distance along Fulu Street, turned right to Xianyu Street, and there was a tailor shop on the right hand.

Because Yuping Town is not a big town, there are few cloth shops and garment shops, Shu Jin is now going to Li Ji Sewing Shop, which is the largest in Yuping Town, where the goods are very complete, cloth and cotton have to be sold, and there are the best tailors in the town.

As soon as the two entered the store, someone came to greet them.

"Come in, two of you. Excuse me, do you want to buy cloth? ”

The guy asked, looking at Shu Jin. This is a normal reaction, usually buying cloth and tailoring is a woman's business, so he asked Shu Jin as a matter of course.

"We want to buy a few pieces of cloth to make bedding, and in addition, to make cotton for quilts." Shu Jin replied.

When the man heard this, he hurriedly brought her to the counter and brought her some suitable fabrics for bedding for her to choose.

At this time, the cloth is mainly red, yellow, blue, and green, but each can be divided into several kinds in detail, for example, red is divided into silver red, water red, scarlet, crimson and purple; Yellow also has goose yellow, beige, chrysanthemum, apricot yellow, golden yellow, earth yellow, brown and so on.

Therefore, when Shu Jin really started to choose, he was really dazzled. Chai Yanfeng was also pulled by Shu Jin on the side and put forward a lot of opinions.

Shu Jin discussed with his buddies, and the cotton was played in the store, and the cloth was also selected in the store. Then ask someone in the store to help make two mattresses, two thin and two thick four quilts. After it is done. She'll come back in two days to get it.

In the end, Shu Jin chose four white cloths for the lining, ordered fifty catties of cotton with his buddies, and selected one water red, a batch of azure, one bean green, and one goose yellow for the quilt cover. Mattress covers.

Speaking of this quilt cover, it really stunned the guy.

At this time, the people made cloth, and they all played cotton. The layers are stored, then wrapped in cloth, and then sewn in rows with needles and threads. Ordinary people's quilts are covered like this, if they are dirty. While disassembling the outer cloth to wash. I washed it off and re-sewed it.

However, Shu Jin specially bought more white cloth for the lining, and then the cloth of other colors was specially used to make a cover that matched the size of the futon.

This statement is a waste in the eyes of both the guy and Chai Yanfeng. The guy didn't say anything, although Shu Jin and Chai Yanfeng were dressed in the same way, not like a big family, but the temperament of the two didn't seem to be shabby, so the guy should be a rich family in the village. But Chai Yanfeng moved his mouth, wanting to say that this was too wasteful. But thinking about Shu Jin just selling snakes and making dozens of taels, it was rare for her to be happy. Anyway, it's just to spend a few more pieces of cloth money, so let her go. He didn't speak.

A qiē was ordered, and the guy calculated the account for Shu Jin, a white cloth of eighty wen, a total of three hundred and twenty wen; The other horses were more than twice as expensive, ranging from 18 to 200, and the four horses were 770 yuan; Sixty wen a pound of cotton, Shu Jin asked for fifty catties, a total of three thousand wen.

It cost a total of 4,090 yuan to buy cloth and cotton, and I discussed it with my buddies, and I paid a total of 30 yuan to the store for making bedding.

Shu Jin first left two taels of silver for the subscription, and the remaining two taels were more than two taels to make up for when he took the quilt.

The futon matter was settled, and the two turned out of the sewing shop and crossed Fortune Street to the blacksmith's shop. Before coming, Shu Jin measured the stove, so when he arrived at the place, he reported the size, a big pot, and spent a tael of silver.

Shu Jin put the things to Che Bo first, and finally pushed Chai Yanfeng to the Lu Ji grocery store.

The two of them had made a lot of money selling snakes, so Shu Jin decided to keep the mountain goods they collected and eat them for themselves and not sell them. Regarding this decision, Chai Yanfeng smiled and agreed without saying anything.

In his opinion, although Shu Jin was calm when she got a few dozen taels of silver, she was also very proud from the two things of making bedding and selling fruits.

But in fact, what Chai Yanfeng didn't know, if he had a choice, Shu Jin would never sell food to the outside. This is an obsession brought about by the previous life.

When I visited Lu Kee's grocery store again, the shopkeeper Lu was not sitting at the counter where he was waiting for a long time and reading a book, and the person who looked at the shop was a young man in his twenties.

"What do you need?"

Shu Jin didn't care who received her, she pushed Chai Yanfeng around the store, picking out what she needed at home. This is a relatively complete place in Yuping Town, so basically everything you need at home can be bought here.

Shu Jin chose two water tanks, a flat pole, and two buckets; I bought three catties of salt, and many kinds of spices, such as vinegar, soy sauce, star anise, and so on. I also bought some white noodles and japonica rice. In addition to the necessary utensils at home, I bought a lot of food-related things.

In the end, Shu Jin saw that there were red dates for sale on the side, asked the price, and asked for two catties.

This trip cost a total of more than 600 yuan.

Shu Jin paid the money and asked the guy to help deliver the things to the car. The guy agreed very happily, and while the guy was calling, Chai Yanfeng whispered to Shu Jin:

"Why did it take so much?"

"I bought a lot, salt, vinegar, and soy sauce are more expensive, with an average of thirty or forty pounds, but I can use it for a long time. Dates are also very expensive, costing twenty-eight wen a catty. I haven't bought sugar yet, and the sugar costs a hundred dollars a pound. Shu Jin replied as a matter of course.

"What are you doing with all this?" Chai Yanfeng felt that it was a bit of a waste to buy those seasonings. Eating in the village has always been not very particular, boiled vegetables, porridge, dry food, at most some salted side dishes, no one can use those seasonings.

He wanted to say that even if the two of them made a lot of money now, they still shouldn't spend it like this.

This trip came down, and it cost a little ten taels of silver, right? If you follow this flowering method, more than 50 taels of silver is a month's business!

"Of course it's useful, with these, the food is even more delicious." Shu Jinda took it for granted, counted the things he bought, and thought about what kind of food he could make.

"What's the need for so much? I haven't seen any of them, so I don't know how many people use them for cooking. Chai Yanfeng frowned and said.

Shu Jin glanced at his expression and frowned, but didn't say anything. The two are separated by thousands of years of consumption concepts, how can there be no conflict.

The so-called "people take food as the sky", in her opinion, as long as the money spent on food is not a waste. Yes, you can eat without these seasonings, but that is not allowed. Since she has so much silver, what is she saving for if she doesn't spend it to buy delicious food? Besides, the silver was earned by her, and if she wanted to, she could earn more, wouldn't she? Why be reluctant to eat and drink? (To be continued......)
