Chapter 232: Oil Shop
Chen Yuru seems to have returned to the past, the arrogant eldest lady, who chose a lot of fabrics.
"You really don't have any better fabric in your shop? I've seen it at a relative's house before, and it's a very good material, but I haven't seen it like that in your place. "
Chen Yuru is talking about the quilt cover in Wang Dayi's house, the pattern is very good-looking, and the most important thing is that the material is very good, most suitable for making quilts and clothes, especially easy to get hot.
"This is really gone, it's not that I boast, if I don't have a style here, there will definitely be no other shops, I guess your relative bought it in other places, if you really like it, you can ask."
The guy is still very clear about this, their shopkeeper has the ability, and everything is one step ahead of other shops, so their business is the best in this town.
Chen Yuru gritted her teeth, she herself guessed that it should be his cousin who went out to buy it.
I can't help but buy it, Chen Yuru picked some good ones, and bought a lot of them.
"The girl is a cheerful person, I won't lie to you, I calculated according to the usual price, a total of three taels of silver and more than 100 copper plates, I will be the master to wipe all the odds, girl, you just give three taels of silver."
This girl didn't bargain from beginning to end, and people didn't like this quilt at first, so he was a little embarrassed, so he simply gave a minimum price, making money or making money, but it was cheaper than usual.
He also thought carefully, the quilt has not been bought, and has been left in their shop, estimating that the final result is to dispose of it at a low price, or disassemble it and redo it.
This girl can also be regarded as giving them a shop to solve the things that can't be sold!
Chen Yuru was a little confused, she felt that it was a bit cheap, she bought a lot of things, one quilt, two custom-made beds, plus matching sheets and quilts...... Although this fabric is not completely good, it is also a little too cheap!
In the eyes of the guy, this girl is settling accounts silently to see if it is worth it.
"Girl, I'll tell you about the price, the next time you buy these things, you will also know in your heart, this quilt is ......"
The little guy also took an abacus, and it was very clear that the last addition was really so much silver.
"Okay, thank you very much. It's just that my home is not far away, but I am alone, and I don't have a donkey cart, I wonder if you can send me these things here? "
She had to buy something else, and she couldn't possibly carry these heavy and big things to the market.
"Cheng, tell me the specific location of your home, and I'll send it back to you."
Originally, there was also this service in the shop, the quilt was quite big, and not everyone had a donkey cart at home, and it was impossible for the family to go back with the quilt, which was very troublesome.
Therefore, if the guest asks for it, they will choose to send it or not according to the situation, and if the distance is too far, they will send it and ask for some extra copper plates.
"Thank you very much, my house is not far away......" Chen Yuru smiled and thanked him, and said the location of his home.
After Chen Yuru discussed it with her buddies, she left, in addition to these quilts or something, she also had to buy rice, flour, oil and salt, they had already moved in, and it was impossible to buy and eat outside all the time.
Chen Yuru thought about it for a while, the rice and noodles were relatively heavy, so she would buy it last, let's buy oil first! It also happens to meet the people around her cousin.
Now Erdanzi can be described as proud, he is not proud, but since he followed his righteous brother to the town to do business, he has really grown a lot of knowledge, and after going back, everyone also feels that he is really different from before.
As soon as a person's temperament changes, they will be judged as two. He himself obviously felt that he had gained knowledge, experience, met a lot of people, and gained self-confidence, and he was really no longer the country boy he used to be.
His father and mother also moved here this year, his father and mother are not in good health, the family is planted with peanuts or something, and they are all planted by others, he bought a house in the town, and he took his father and mother to enjoy the blessings, he is busy in the shop alone, and he can eat a hot meal when he goes back.
He also occasionally went back to the village and saw some of his former friends, friends of the same age, he was no longer the same as them, not that he looked down on the countrymen, but he talked to them from a different angle, and he couldn't talk together.
Some of them have already married daughters-in-law, and even have children, and live like the older generation every day, working in the fields and supporting their families.
He sometimes really sighed, if it weren't for his righteous brother, he would have lived such a life, and he was even inferior to them, after all, his family was poor and there was not much land.
He is now wearing decent clothes, and he can read and settle accounts, and everyone politely calls the second shopkeeper.
There are also many people who introduce girls to him, he just smiles, he is not in a hurry, he envies the life of his righteous brother, and he just wants to find a virtuous girl, the two of them have the same heart and live a good life.
Today's business is also very good, he is happy in the shop, he does not feel bored, he made a pot of tea, drank it beautifully, and took a book, he has to read more books, read more.
Brother Dayi has said that they will do bigger in the future, and the shop will be opened to other places, and a person can grow his knowledge by reading, and when he has nothing to do, he will read more and better, and he will get better and better.
He had never studied at home before, his family was poor, and he couldn't even read a few words at first.
At the beginning, he also took the children's textbooks, learned little by little, and practiced word by word. If you are in business, it is absolutely impossible to be illiterate, and it is even more taboo to not know how to settle accounts.
He learns slowly, the opportunity is rare, if Brother Dayi didn't care about a little friendship, he wouldn't have given him such a good opportunity, but the opportunity was given to him, and he couldn't help but work hard.
Fortunately, he persevered, and now he knows a lot of words, and the accounting is fast and accurate. Therefore, the next step in literacy is to read books, and reading books can realize many things.
When Chen Yuru came over, he saw a young man sitting behind the platform, holding a book and looking at it with relish.
"Does the girl want to buy oil?"
Erdanzi, no, now he has changed his name, he is now called Zhang Yu, and there is a lot of spare space.
He just opened the door to do business, someone came over, he must have seen it for the first time, and when he saw a guest, he asked with a smile.
"Yes, I don't know how to sell this oil? What kind of oil is there? Chen Yuru asked with a smile.
This young man looks pretty good, but there are still shortcomings on his body, which is the grace of ease and the majesty of the superior.
Her cousin has it, and when the discerning person looks at it, he thinks that her cousin is not an idle person, and his temperament is different.
The young man in front of him seems to be quite peaceful, and he doesn't feel cowardly and incompetent, but he is very ordinary. I guess he shouldn't be a powerful person, and even more, he probably still relies on her cousin.
"The girl must be here for the first time! We have rapeseed oil, peanut oil and soybean oil in our shop. The price is calculated according to a pot of oil. "
Zhang Yu said with a smile, there are almost no people in this town who have not come here to buy oil, and this girl looks like she has just come to this town.
"Yes, I moved here with my family, and I heard that there is a special oil sold here, which is not available anywhere else, so I came to take a look and buy some to taste. What kind of oil does the little brother think? Chen Yuru smiled gently.
"I see, the girl wants to try it, generally the stir-fry at home is made of rapeseed oil, peanut oil is very fragrant, the girl can use it to mix cold vegetables to eat."
Zhang Yu introduced it and said the price again, if it is a person in the town, then you can buy a pot, and you don't need to buy a pot next time, just take the pot and fill it with oil.
"Then little brother, get me a pot of rapeseed oil! I want another pot of peanut oil, and I smell it very well now! "
"Okay!" Zhang Yu said and gave Chen Yuru oil.
"The shopkeeper's business here must be very good, can you be busy alone? Why didn't you hire a guy? Chen Yuru asked pretending to be curious.
"My shop has a good business, but everyone can eat a pot of oil for a long time, and they don't come to buy it often, so I can be busy alone. And there is also a young man in the shop, who happened to be on leave today. Zhang Yu said with a smile.
"So that's the case, the shopkeeper must be very powerful, this running a shop, it must be to settle accounts, sell things, and make ...... There are so many projects, and one person in charge of the store is really powerful. Chen Yuru praised.
"The girl praised falsely, you just came, I guess you don't know yet, we have two oil shops in the town! It's not just me, I don't know much, my eldest brother is really powerful, everything is prepared by him, I just follow it. The girl is really good, and since you can say that, you must know a lot. "
Zhang Yu is sincere praise, this girl is different from other girls, she seems to be knowledgeable, and she is also talking about the things in this business, and she is estimated to be doing business at home, she has seen a lot and knows a lot.
Such a girl reminded him of Sister Yang, she was the person he admired the most, and he admired Sister Yang more than Brother Dayi.
They are all from the village, he naturally knows more than others, and Brother Dayi is inseparable from Sister Yang's contributions. Sister Yang seems to know everything, that is, the rapeseed used for the oil in their shop is also grown by Sister Yang.
"It's just that the elders in the family do business, and occasionally hear about it, but they don't know it very well, and they just know a little about it. It's just that I've always admired people who know a lot, and when I heard my brother say this, I admired the shopkeeper very much, and I thought I could get to know him if I had the chance. Chen Yuru said with a smile.
Zhang Yu smiled and didn't speak, he didn't want this girl to go to his righteous brother to ask for anything, his righteous brother is different from him, he is alone, if he says a few words to other girls, he will not say anything.
But Brother Dayi is already married, and if he talks too much to a girl, it will not be appropriate in the end. But he doesn't have to worry about this, with his understanding of Brother Dayi, other girls talk to him, except for official business, he won't care about the other party at all.
Chen Yuru lowered her head and gritted her teeth a little, she talked about this, but the man didn't answer, and he didn't say that if she went to get married, she would definitely get along very well.
In fact, she didn't mean to see her cousin, it was too fast, and it was inevitable that it would be exposed.
She just wants to start with the people around him, so that the people around him can slowly feel that she and her cousin are very suitable, they can talk together, and she is also helpful to her cousin's business.
But today she just mentioned it, and the man didn't speak! Then how can she talk and continue!
The oil has also been bought, and Chen Yuru is also coming here for the first time, she is not familiar with this man, and it is definitely impossible to continue, it seems too purposeful, and it is easy to be suspicious.
"Then I'll take my leave." Chen Yuru said with a smile.
"Girl, walk slowly." Zhang Yu still had a smile on his face.
Chen Yuru turned around and went out, she was a little discouraged, she always felt that the first time was not smooth, it was not the same as she thought, and they didn't say a few words today.
She cheered herself up, it must be because she had just met, they were not familiar with each other, and they would definitely not talk too deeply.
There is another person, who seems to be the head of Changle Fang, and she hasn't figured out how to approach that person for the time being.
Changle Fang is a gambling house, she definitely can't go in, she doesn't know that person now, and she hasn't seen what it looks like, so she just saw it elsewhere and didn't know it.
She thought about it for a long time before deciding that she still had to meet her first, and she couldn't enter the gambling house, after all, she was a girl's family. But she could stay outside the gambling house to see what the man looked like, and then create a chance encounter somewhere else.
Chen Yuru was so distracted that she almost bumped into someone, who grazed her arm and almost knocked off the oil pot in her hand.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are you okay, girl?" The man quickly apologized.
Chen Yuru was not in a good mood, so she wanted to blame this person out of her temper, but when she raised her head, she saw that person's face, was it?
This person was the person she had met last night while eating dumplings, one of the guards, and she remembered it clearly because it was this young man who smiled at her when she looked over.
Chen Yuru immediately turned her face back, and quickly apologized.
"It's okay, it's okay, I didn't pay attention, it's my fault, Childe didn't hit anywhere, right?" Chen Yuru asked thoughtfully.
"Is that you?" The man said with a smile, a little surprised in his expression.
"Huh? Childe knows me? Chen Yuru asked pretending to be puzzled.
She decided in an instant, if this person didn't remember her, she would take the initiative to recognize her, and then this time she must have an impression, but this way it was inevitable to fall behind.
If he remembered, it would be better, she pretended not to know, this time, it seemed that the last time she looked at them was just unintentional, it seemed that she was innocent.
