Chapter 100: Buying and selling, everyone does
The shopkeeper said very sincerely, for him, this old shop is not only the foundation of supporting his family, but also the lifeblood of the treasure he regards, and now he is even more bent on keeping the shop.
"Miss Ling, I was the one who boasted about Haikou without beads, and you have a lot of them, I ......"
"Shopkeeper Mao." Ling Xiu'er interrupted him with a smile, "Don't just say it yourself, listen to me." ”
"Yes, yes, you say."
Looking at the slender old face of the shopkeeper Mao, Ling Xiuer's eyes were bright, "Shopkeeper Mao, the shop will return it to you, but you have to take my big order and help me dye colorful embroidery thread." ”
"Colorful embroidery thread? Is it the one you embroidered the colorful deer on the embroidery girl vote? Shopkeeper Mao's face just now fell down again, "Miss Ling, aren't you embarrassing me?" I don't dye that bright color. You'd better make a price and let me buy the shop back. ”
Shopkeeper Mao said miserably, as if Ling Xiuer was bullying him.
Ling Xiu'er had a smile in her apricot eyes, and her voice was crisp, "Just because you can't dye it now doesn't mean you won't be able to dye it in the future, Shopkeeper Mao, look what this is." ”
Ling Xiu'er took out a ball of silk, although the silk was white, it showed a variety of colors under the reflection of the sun, which was very layered.
Shopkeeper Mao was surprised, "This, this is golden silk?" ”
"No, it's Celestial Silk." Ling Xiu'er put the silk in the hands of the shopkeeper Mao, took two steps, and said: "With this silk, and with the dyeing technology of the shopkeeper Mao, how much colorful silk will cost." ”
Ling Xiu'er turned around confidently, looked at the Mao family and his wife with a smile and said, "Shopkeeper Mao, Mrs. Mao, do you want to do this business?" ”
"Yes, of course."
Mrs. Mao saw that it was a good thing for the world to drop the pie and hurriedly agreed, she had heard of the reputation of the silk, and even the boss on the first floor of the world could not tell the difference between the silk and the golden silk.
The shopkeeper Mao still couldn't get an idea, many years of business created his cautious temperament, take a step to think about how to take the next three steps, he continued to ask: "Miss Ling, there are many large and small dyeing workshops in the capital, why did you choose our Mao family?" ”
"Because the shopkeeper Mao is honest and trustworthy, the contract to buy the shop is actually my little temptation of your dyeing workshop." Ling Xiu'er explained: "I won't tell you, shopkeeper Mao, I am a little peasant woman from Tu County, and I am lucky to cultivate Tian Silk, but I am not familiar with life in this capital, since I want to cooperate, I naturally want to find a century-old store with integrity like you." ”
The shopkeeper Mao treats her sincerely, and Ling Xiuer will naturally return the favor.
Her heartfelt words made the shopkeeper Mao very useful, and he clasped his fists with both hands and said to Ling Xiu'er: "Just at Miss Ling's words, Boss Mao, I will respond." ”
"Everyone who buys and sells, Wishing you prosperity, Wishing you prosperity."
Ling Xiu'er returned the salute and discussed the next matters with the shopkeeper Mao.
The first distribution store of Tian Silk in the capital was completed. Mrs. Mao personally cooked a table of good dishes to greet Ling Xiu'er, and Ling Xiu'er agreed to receive those orders tomorrow in the Mao family's big dyeing workshop, but considering the number of people, it was suggested that the shopkeeper Mao temporarily set up a shed.
The matter was finalized, the sun had set, and Ling Xiu'er walked home with the food that Zhang Xiupai had exchanged for Mrs. Mao. Before she got close to the house, she saw someone sneaking around in front of her house and didn't know what she was doing. She immediately went into hiding.
The man turned his back to Ling Xiu'er, and after a while, he saw that there was no one on the left and right roads, and left quickly.
Ling Xiu'er made sure that the man had really left before she walked to the door of the house, and found that there were three more regular scratches on the door on the left. She touted the marks with her fingertips, frowning in the direction the man had left.
Walking into the house, Ling Xiu'er woke up Cao Yu, who was still sleeping.
Cao Yu's wine hadn't finished waking up yet, and when he heard the movement, he stared at him, and his cheeks, which were red from sleep, added a little cuteness.
Ling Xiu'er didn't care about admiring his beauty, so she simply took a cup of herbal tea and woke him up, "Xianggong, we seem to be targeted by someone!" ”
Cao Yu immediately came to his senses, listened to Ling Xiu'er tell the ins and outs of the matter with a calm face, got up and went to the door to check, and sure enough, there were three scratches. He remembered that there were thieves in the village in the past, and some thieves would step on the dots to make marks during the day, and come in to steal at night along the marks.
Cao Yu's handsome face tensed, and Ling Xiu'er stood beside him and asked cautiously, "Xianggong, what should we do?" ”
Cao Yu waved her hand to signal her not to worry, picked up the stones on the ground, and made the same marks on the doors of several nearby houses, and then see what the little thief would do!
Seeing this, Ling Xiuer praised Cao Yu's brilliant idea.
Cao Yu tugged at his lips, and a dark smile spread out at the corner of his mouth, he wanted this little thief to come and go tonight.
The two returned to the room and saw the food box on the table, Cao Yu asked, "Who did you go to the restaurant with?" ”
Seeing Cao Yu's vigilant stinginess, Ling Xiu'er burst out laughing, "No, it was sent by Mrs. Mao." ”
When he heard that Ling Xiu'er went to the Mao's dyeing workshop to discuss business, he frowned unhappily, "Why didn't the lady call me along." ”
"You're drunk like a pig, how can I take you?" Ling Xiu'er glanced at him, sat at the table to eat snacks, and said casually: "Xianggong, do you have any holiday with Brother Zhang." ”
Cao Yu, who was serving food and eating, was stunned for a moment, and then denied it, "No, do I dare to have a holiday with your eldest brother?" ”
"Roar, this sour." Ling Xiu'er put her hand in front of her nose and fanned fiercely, "Lord Cao, it's a pity that you don't go to the vinegar shop to make vinegar." ”
Ignoring Ling Xiu'er's ridicule, Cao Yu continued to eat.
Ling Xiu'er smiled and leaned in, "Wouldn't you be happy to say a few words?" Xianggong, little lady, I have one more thing to ask for tonight. ”
"Don't go, don't you have Brother Zhang?"
"Oh, no matter what Brother Zhang does, he is still an outsider, how can he use it easily."
"You woman......"
Before Cao Yu finished speaking, his pink lips blocked his mouth.
At the end of the kiss, Ling Xiu'er lowered her eyes and looked at Cao Yu with affection, her voice was soft and glutinous, and she was like an orchid, "Xianggong, can you help me?" ”
Cao Yu tightened down, almost gritting his back molars and agreeing, "Help!" ”
Before going out to run errands with Ling Xiu'er, Cao Yu first went to Liuhe Bridge to find Ah Jiu and asked him to help him catch the thief who marked the door.
Ah Jiu agreed, patted his chest and promised, "Lord Cao, don't worry, I will definitely catch someone for you." ”
Ling Xiu'er was waiting at the entrance of the alley, and when she saw Cao Yu coming out, she asked curiously, "What are you doing in there?" ”
"You'll find out tonight."
Cao Yu said mysteriously, and pulled Ling Xiu'er to the post station.
The sun has completely set, and the sky has taken on a gray color, like a stage at the end of the curtain. At the end of one play, another is staged.
