Chapter 91: The Female Shopkeeper is a profiteer

Chen Wen said a lot, her mouth was dry, and she didn't see the shopkeeper's expression shaken for half a minute, but the child in her arms listened to it with relish.

Chen Wen quietly lowered his hand and sighed, looking at her appearance, she definitely didn't want this entanglement.

Forget it, she'd better take it back and treasure it.

Ah Die was still holding a tangled flower in her hand, pinning it in her hair and asking, "Is it good-looking?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled and nodded.

Chen Wen and the shopkeeper were already paying attention to the other guests, and several women stood not far from Chen Wen, pretending to discuss, but in fact secretly listening to their conversations.

But immediately, the female shopkeeper knocked on the counter with her fingers, suddenly put down Ah Die, took away the tangled flowers in her hand, and rubbed her little head.

"Go in and play, my mother has something to tell this sister."

Ah Die nodded obediently, and disappeared as soon as he slipped away.

Mother? Chen Wen secretly looked at the female shopkeeper, so young...... The child looked ten years old, and she thought that the shopkeeper was her sister.

The shopkeeper shook his sour arm, looked directly into Chen Wen's eyes, and said to her, "Sincerely want to sell?" What is the price in mind? ”

Chen Wen saw hope, grabbed the edge of the counter with both hands, leaned forward, was not afraid to look at her, and asked her, "What is the price in the shopkeeper's mind?" ”

Chen Wen originally thought that there seemed to be no hope, but the shopkeeper suddenly asked, doesn't that mean that it is expected to be sold!

asked her about the price in her mind, the first is that Chen Wen doesn't know the market, and the second is that she is afraid that if it is high, people will be dissatisfied, and when the time comes, what will she do.

When the shopkeeper heard her rhetorical question, he was stunned, and couldn't help but smile his eyebrows and eyes, and inserted the tangled flower that he had just taken from Ah Die's hand into the hollow position of the bun diagonally.

Following Ah Die's appearance, he propped up the counter delicately and asked Chen Wen: "Is this good-looking?" ”

"Good...... Pretty. Chen Wen stumbled in response.

Obviously, she was still unfazed just now, but suddenly approached and laughed, with the flowers on her bun, she was delicate and moving.

A few women who secretly paid attention to them saw that the shopkeeper was wearing flowers, so they looked so tight, and came over and asked, "Do you sell that kind of hairpin?" ”

The shopkeeper touched the flowers in his hair, shook his head with a smile, and pointed to Chen Wen opposite: "Don't you discuss this with the owner of the flowers." ”

Several women turned to Chen Wen: "Do you sell it?" ”

"......" in other people's stores, if you want to say that it is good, it is just to trade casually, which is not good!

Chen Wen shook his head: "After I discuss it with the shopkeeper, you can talk to the shopkeeper again." ”

The female shopkeeper glanced at Chen Wen appreciatively, and politely said to the other guests: "I'm sorry to wait, let's take a look at the other objects in the store." Then he turned his head and shouted into the curtain: "Zao'er." ”

Soon a little girl with a round face and a round body came out of it, greeting the guests.

Chen Wen was taken to the back room by the shopkeeper.

said that it was a good discussion, but in fact, Chen Wen wanted to make a quick decision and say it quickly, after all, Zheng Jiang was still waiting for her.

"What do you think, two taels of silver will cover all the money you have on hand?"

Chen Wen frowned, the price was low, it was not to her liking.

"I haven't seen such a hairpin, and the raw materials are sticky or something, you see that cotton thread and gum are sticky! I'm already giving a very high price. ”

Chen Wen raised his eyes and looked at the shopkeeper, broke the petals, and explained to her: "You see, this hairpin has a total of fifteen petals, not including the leaves, all of which I wrapped around with cotton thread, the cost is low, but it is particularly time-consuming and energy-consuming. ”

Often wrapping a flower will take her a whole day's time. Fortunately, she is young, otherwise she would have been in a bad position for a day.

The shopkeeper gave her a surprised look.

"How about three taels?" One or two, she will make a deal.

The shopkeeper fell silent, and Chen Wen took a sharp breath: "No...... Agreed? ”

But three, two, three, it's not expensive.

She walked in just now and glanced at the prices of other hairpins, one that was quite cheap cost more than one or two, and it was expensive.

"Agreed."

The shopkeeper nodded, stretched out his hand to her, and Chen Wen handed it over.

"Only three?"

Chen Wen smiled dryly: "...... Scarcity is expensive. ”

The shopkeeper chuckled: "If I take it out, guess the few guests outside will buy it?" ”

"Perhaps."

"I guess even if they don't buy it, within half a day, these three will be gone."

Chen Wen frowned, this shopkeeper seemed to have something to say.

"One or two, long-term trading, do you want to do it?"

...... "Okay, it turns out that there is something to say, and I am waiting for her here."

However, Chen Wen felt that the shopkeeper's words were so familiar!

She only sold it for emergency use temporarily, and had no intention of doing business for a long time...... However, what about one tael, ten is ten taels, wouldn't you be able to make a fortune by doing this?

Thinking about it, Chen Wen couldn't help but smile.

This made the shopkeeper feel that there was an opportunity.

"One or two, sister." After she finds a few aunts who specialize in hairpins and breaks down this tangled flower, she doesn't need to do anything for a long time with this little girl.

But now, she thinks it's a good business opportunity, and she loves the flowers.

Chen Wen didn't know what she was thinking, and she didn't know that she hadn't gotten the money yet, so the shopkeeper was thinking about how to find a few hairpins in the future to produce tangled flowers.

"But it's not easy for me to come to the town...... "If it weren't for Zheng Jiang's and Yang Muge's ox cart, she wouldn't have known that Ma Yue would have been able to come to the town in the Year of the Monkey."

is really persuaded to quit, although one or two is really exciting, but she is not without other ways to get money.

It's much easier to make a purse.

"It's not easy." The shopkeeper took a piece of paper and a pen and said to Chen Wen, "Report your address." ”

“……”

Under the constant urging of the shopkeeper, Chen Wen obediently reported his home address.

Of course, whether she can find it or not is her business.

After all, there is no house number in front of the house.

Chen Wen came out of the noodle shop with a few taels of silver, and as soon as Chen Wen left, the shopkeeper carefully broke the flowers and took them outside to place them.

At that price, it was written directly, three by two. The shopkeeper thinks it's not expensive at all, according to what Chen Wen said, scarcity is expensive!

If Chen Wen is still there, he will definitely scold him, this female shopkeeper is a profiteer!

But Chen Wen had already gone out, walking in the alley, turning into running.

Sweat slowly oozing from my head, why didn't I feel that this alley was a bit long when I came.

Out of the alley, Zheng Jiang had already changed to sit next to the old man who had tea on the table, with two bowls of tea in hand, Zheng Jiang's eyes lit up when he saw Chen Wen.

When the old man saw Chen Wen, his eyes looked at her head, and it was empty.

Didn't buy it?

Chen Wen sat down, Zheng Jiang pushed the tea to her, and then took out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat.

"Sorry auntie, I've kept you waiting."

"It doesn't matter." I'm afraid that you will lose it, and it will be difficult to explain: "Where have you been?" ”

"Head Noodle Shop." Chen Wen smiled: "Auntie, I can invite you to the teahouse to drink tea and listen to the story." ”

"Huh?" Zheng Jiang was stunned and said, "You went to the first noodle shop and made money?" ”

Chen Wen tilted his head and smiled sweetly: "That's right." ”
