Chapter 338: What, I'm in the Dirt!
Chapter 338: What's that, I'm in the dirt in my mouth!
I asked Mo Lu when he would be able to arrive in the capital at the current speed, and Mo Lu said that he would be able to arrive before sunset, so I was no longer anxious.
No one spoke along the way, looking at the appearance of Xiaodouzi and Yue'er, the two of them seemed to be still reminiscing about the dog-beating stick method that Yan Feifei had played before, I didn't have any impression, I forgot after seeing it, if I could remember it, I would have been a martial arts master a long time ago.
But I saw Yue'er's slightly frowning appearance, and I was a little happy in my heart, this girl was lucky, she didn't plan to apprentice to Yan Fanfei as a teacher, and it was a kind of chance.
At noon, we casually found a teahouse at home, had a simple lunch and continued on our way. Now it is getting closer and closer to the capital, looking at the pedestrians hurrying on the road, the galloping horses and the luxurious carriages, you can know that the momentum of the capital is really different.
Before the sun set, Mo Lu, who was driving the carriage, suddenly said, "Master Bi, we are about to enter the capital!" ”
As soon as I heard this, I poked my head out of the carriage and asked, "Have you arrived?" ”
Xiaodouzi and Yue'er beside him also looked eager, poking their heads out of my way, and the three of them poked their heads out and saw the distant city walls and high city gates, although they seemed to be a few miles apart, but there was still a bustling sound in the city.
Mo Lu turned his head to look at me, and said in a low voice: "Master Bi, the capital has always been mixed, princes and generals are everywhere, and you will meet the prince or the prime minister when you walk on the street, so you must be careful!" ”
"Hmm!" I nodded solemnly.
Turning my head to look at the two girls in front of me, the faces of the two people showed excitement and curiosity, and it could be seen that they were also entering Beijing for the first time, I pondered for a while, and said to the three people: "When we bring back to the capital, we will all change into a set of clothes, so as not to let others think that we are from other places!" ”
Yue'er turned her head to look at me puzzled, and asked curiously, "Brother Bi, aren't we just from other places?" ”
Before I could speak, Xiaodouzi on the side explained: "Brother Bi means that we have to pretend to be from the capital, otherwise they will bully us!" ”
Yue'er listened to her words and nodded as if she didn't understand.
Mo Lu drove the carriage and quickly rushed to the city gate, just looking at the two huge city gates about ten meters high, he knew that this capital city was extraordinary, and the guards guarding the gate on both sides of the gate were also wearing shining armor, and they were holding spears and other weapons in their hands, which looked very powerful, they just glanced at the vehicles entering and exiting and put them in, but although it was only a glance, they could also see the vigilance and scrutiny contained in this look.
Mo Lu cautiously drove the carriage into the city gate, as soon as the carriage entered the door, I and the two girls couldn't wait to poke our heads out and look around, and then I couldn't help but take a deep breath, the market is very wide, enough to drive five carriages side by side, there are three or five storey wine shops, teahouses, inns and other shops on both sides of the market, groups of passers-by wearing clothes cut out of fine silk, stop and stop and point shopping, there will be carriages passing by in the market from time to time, Even the groom driving the carriage looked at the color of the people with disdain, as if he was superior, and I couldn't help but spit out: "Bah......!" ”
Xiaodouzi and Yue'er looked at me, and I hurriedly covered up: "Uh......, what's that, I'm in the dirt in my mouth!" ”
"Bi Gongzi, where are we going now?" Mo Lu asked softly.
"Go to the cloth shop and make a few clothes first!" I replied casually.
Mo Lu didn't need to ask for directions, he drove the carriage straight to the door of a large cloth house, and as soon as the carriage stopped, the four of us jumped out of the carriage, and then walked in with our feet raised.
As soon as I entered the cloth village, I couldn't help but take a deep breath again, this cloth village is too luxurious!
The word 'luxury' is not very appropriate, but it is indeed the feeling that the shelves are full of fabrics of various colors and materials, and there are satin, silk, brocade, embroidery of the same color, and each color also has the main materials and accessories, as well as supporting goods such as buttons and needles, which can be regarded as a dazzling array of goods.
Xiaodouzi and Yue'er are girls' families in the end, as soon as they see these fabrics, they can't help but touch and see, the shopkeeper is also a person who has seen the world, and when he saw us walking in, he didn't come forward to greet us, and of course he didn't snub us.
I raised my hand and touched the texture of several fabrics, smooth and soft, and there was no burr feeling at all, making clothes can be regarded as a high-quality material, I turned my head to look at the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, how much silver does this material make into a set of clothes?" ”
"Ten taels!" The shopkeeper was an old man who looked to be more than fifty years old, dressed in luxurious clothes, and knew that he was a rich man at a glance.
As soon as I heard it, I was anxious, "What, what, what?" Ten taels? I said shopkeeper, why don't you grab it?! ”
The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Childe said that the cloth in my cloth village is all high-quality goods, from the South China Sea to the West Regions, whether it is feel or texture, it is definitely not comparable to other cloth villages, to tell you the truth, even the people in the palace come out to buy cloth, they are all coming to my store!" ”
I understand the meaning of his words, businessmen pay attention to doing business is to raise their own value, regardless of whether the shopkeeper in front of him is telling the truth or not, just saying that he 'the palace people also come to me to buy cloth' invisibly increased the value of his shop.
I smiled, "The palace people buy cloth, the palace people are rich, and I don't have so much public money!" ”
"Public money?" The shopkeeper looked at me in surprise.
"Uh......, anyway, the four of us each have to make a set of clothes, let's talk about the price!" I ignored his words and spoke.
"Ten taels per person!" The shopkeeper was full of smiles and did not let go.
"Cheaper!" I took out the ability to bargain in the commercial street in my previous life, and counteroffered.
"Ten taels, a lot!" The shopkeeper hid a knife in his smile.
"Five taels!" I repaid.
The shopkeeper's face does not change, "Ten taels!" ”
"Little Bean, Yue'er, let's go!" I was a little angry and beckoned to the two girls.
When the two of them heard me shout like this, they immediately gathered around, but when they heard me say that I was leaving, a little reluctance appeared on their faces.
The shopkeeper laughed and didn't say a word.
Damn, this is playing hard with me, in this case, whoever loosens his mouth will be considered a loser, but the so-called biggest fun of selling is bargaining, so I don't move.
Yue'er is very good at this fabric and silk, and whispered in my ear: "Brother Bi, the material here is indeed of the highest quality, but it is indeed worth ten taels, but eight taels can almost be won!" ”
I also know that the material of this cloth village is the best quality, in my experience in my previous life, it can definitely be regarded as a high-end brand, plus it is all hand-spun, it is even more worthwhile, but who does not want to save money when buying things!
I looked at the shopkeeper in front of me, gritted my teeth and said fiercely: "Eight taels, one more penny is not enough!" ”
The shopkeeper was still smiling, and gently spit out two words: "Ten taels!" ”
"Damn, you don't want to do my business, right? We did four bodies at once, and it was a group purchase, you were good, there was no discount, if you did a good job this time, maybe next time I asked my friends to come to you to make clothes, your voice is more than just the four of us! I said angrily.
Four people, including Mo Lu and the shopkeeper, looked at me together, "Group buying? ”
"Uh...... Well, it means that there are many people buying the same thing together! I explained ramblingly.
The shopkeeper looked at me with a smile and said softly: "If a set of clothes only costs eight taels of silver, then I have to find eight taels of silver!" ”
When I heard this, I was stunned, "You...... What do you mean? ”
"Someone has already paid the money for the four sons!" The shopkeeper said lightly.
When the four of us heard this, our eyes widened, and we were surprised in unison: "Someone paid the money?" ”
"Not bad!" The shopkeeper nodded slightly, "About an hour ago, someone paid the silver, and the person who paid the silver didn't let me tell a few of his identities, but just said to make four sets of clothes for a son with a waist jade with the word 'Xu', ten taels of silver each!" As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the piece of jade around my waist.
The four of us looked at each other, and I went, what is the situation?
