7. The first business
March 27 Sunny and breezy
No matter how good-tempered the owner of Sanlyemon was, he couldn't help but be angry with the employees who were two hours late on the first day. Yesterday, I was constantly reminded by him that "I can't live up to Mr. Miaolezhai's trust!" "Young people should be diligent! "I want to bring happiness to Xianzhi! After waiting for the reason to be taught for half an hour, he finally forgave me in my incessant apology!
Ay! Finally passed a level!
***************************************************
"Welcome! What do you need? "I was looking at the shop when a samurai walked in.
"Oh! Are you new here? Isn't the owner of Sanlyemon there? The samurai asked.
"The boss is stocking! My name is Tadabei, and I'm a new handyman! I looked at him as I spoke.
The samurai was in his thirties and wore a washed and somewhat whitish cloth robe. The two arms and neck are intertwined like the roots of an old tree, and you can clearly feel the power contained in them even through your clothes. The two eyes are clear and bright, and the whole face is full of serenity.
"That's right! I want to buy some ......" the samurai's gaze swept across the shelves. ββ¦β¦ Silk! What kind of do you have? Please show it to me. β
"Wait, please! We have some great tango silk in our shop! "I climbed up to the shelves and took down three rolls of silk from above, one yellow, one green and one purple, which the owner of Sanlyemon had brought in from Kyoto last summer. There weren't many wealthy people in Owari who wore silk, so it hasn't been sold yet. "May I ask if I bought it for Mrs. or Miss (a martial artist like him, who loves martial arts far more than clothes, naturally wouldn't buy it for himself)? Well...... How tall is it?" I took out a ruler.
"What? β¦β¦ Don't you have silk from the Ming Kingdom here? The samurai said with some disappointment.
"I'm so sorry! We don't have Ming silk in the store," I bowed to the samurai. "Ming silk is indeed draped and silky, and it is the supreme product for making winter clothes. If it can be lined with precious animal skins, such as fire fox, ferret, golden raccoon dog, etc., it will not be inferior even if it is worn on the body of the nobles of Tianhuang. But...... If it's a summer costume, nothing compares to the light and flowing Tango silk! (It's the end of March, and it's the time when neuropathy makes winter clothes!) οΌ
"It's also ......," the samurai hesitated.
"If you can wear clothes made of Tango silk at summer festivals, Obon festivals, and Tanabata festivals, you will definitely be the center of attention! Alas! β¦β¦ It's a pity that I'm just a poor fellow, otherwise I would have made my wife proudly stand in the crowd! β
"Yes! β¦β¦ It's just that? β¦β¦ This is? β¦β¦ Focus? ......" The samurai began to faint.
"Look at the color again! How bright this yellow is! The rape flowers in spring will not be brighter than this,...... Look at this green again! Verdant, people have to be ten years younger when they wear it! β¦β¦ And this purple! How noble and elegant! Even in the court of the Emperor of Kyoto, there is no doubt that he will be a bright star! ......" (the above paragraphs are taken from a clothing salesman in a large commercial building in Beijing)
"Alright! Then ......" the samurai seems to have made a decision. "The yellow ones and the purple ones...... Just three of them in one piece! The height of the inner man is four feet nine inches......"
"Isn't this the Lord of the Li family? It's so unreasonable for you to come to me and not be there! What do you want to buy? "That's when the boss came back.
"Toshiya Maeda? Inuchiyo? Gunshot? Elder Toyotomi, a famous man in the way of guns, and the first ancestor of Kaga's 1.2 million stone domainγ......" A series of illustrious names slipped through my heart.
"Boss Sanlyemon, you're so polite! I'll buy some clothes for my insider. Toshiie Maeda replied with a smile.
"Is Lady Asson okay? What kind to choose? It's a great honor to work for you and your wife! β
"Don't bother! I've already chosen. Thanks to this one for helping! The Li family pointed at me and said to the boss.
"Ahh β¦β¦ Yes! β¦β¦ Tadabei! Hurry up and get ready what the Lord of the Li family wants! The boss of Sanlyemon said to me with some suspicion.
"Yes! Madame is four feet nine inches tall, and the material of each dress is about eight feet eight inches two, and the three pieces are two feet six feet four inches and six inches...... "I swallowed my saliva and continued...... Please pay by the two-foot and six-foot rate! 200 wen per foot, a total of 5 and 200 wen! Thank you for your patronage! (Since I don't understand tailoring, the above data may be quite different.) οΌ
"Your name is ...... Tadabei? You're going to be a big businessman! After taking the wrapped silk, Maeda Toshiya looked at me, then turned to the somewhat stunned owner of Sanlyemon and said, "You have a good guy in your shop!" β
"You're very good at business!" After the Li family left, I told my boss the whole story.
"Yes! I was born into a merchant family! (It's not lying)
"You...... The ninety-nine algorithm is also very strong! β
"Yes! I studied it specifically when I was a kid! (That's a history of my bloody and tearful accusations against elementary school teachers)
"From now on, you're the shopkeeper at the Wood Bird Shop!"
"Thank you boss for cultivating!"
