Mr. Ge knowingly said: "The rules of the small shop have always been like this, and I hope that the son will forgive me." Li Zhuoran has never heard of anyone who opens a business and does not collect cashiers but only hangs accounts, I don't know if it is true or not, I was thinking about it, and suddenly heard Yunhua say: My righteous brother, who is a shopkeeper in Guoyun Pavilion, is indispensable to usher in the send-off, please also choose a few suitable materials to make ready-to-wear.
Mr. Ge got up and recommended three kinds of acacia gray, silver rat gray and lamp grass gray to Li Zhuoran as the background color, with the clothes of the Yi male hundred flower patterns, the double cloud goose pattern and the four gold carving patterns, for Li Zhuoran to choose. Li Zhuoran didn't know how to shirk it for a while, so he had to say: "It's all right, any kind of thing is fine." Yun Hua smiled: "Then you need all three, each of which makes a cotton robe." At this time, Qiuqiu and Ou Jinshu also chosen, Ou Jinshu preferred bright colors such as gardenia yellow and daylily yellow, and Qiuqiu chose bamboo moonlight and Ji color.
Yunhua asked Qiuqiu, "Don't you like goose yellow the most?" Just choose what you like, don't think about me. Qiuqiu's head turned for a while before he understood, Yunhua probably thought that Qiuqiu chose this plain blue color to cater to his preferences. Busy said: "Sir, Qiu'er liked goose yellow when she was a child, but now she likes such a plain color." Yunhua nodded after hearing this, thinking that this child must have been following him for a long time, and his preferences have become similar to his own.
Mr. Ge saw that everyone had chosen, so he asked the guy to write down Yunhua and what they wanted one by one with a pen and paper, and found two tailors to take Qiuqiu and Zhuo Ran in to measure the size. Ou Jinshu was worried that Qiuqiu would be afraid of strangers alone, so he also followed.
At this time, Mr. Ge found a young man, whispered a few words to him, and the young man walked to the back warehouse. Ge Laoxian said to Yunhua: "Zhang Gongzi, I have a few snow fox skins in my store, which were bought from the Mongolians by a few gold people who are doing business this year and sent them to me, the condition is very unusual, can you take a look?" ”
While speaking, the young man had already brought those few skins, Yun Hua glanced at them, and saw that the skins were shining with silver light, the fox fur on the face was smooth and tight, and the leather plate was soft and dense, and he knew in his heart that it was a good thing, and said: "The things that Mr. Ge handles are naturally the best products in Lin'an City, but they are too few to make a big one." Mr. Ge laughed in a low voice: "Although it is not enough, you can make a set of winter boots and hats to keep out the cold, but it is enough, the boots are covered with the fox fur of this northern land, even if it is cold in winter, the feet are as warm as a stove, and it is not cold at all." ”
Yunhua nodded and said, "That's really good." Mr. Ge smiled earnestly, arched his hand and said: "Seeing that the young lady just chose the style worn by a young woman, the old man dared to guess that this young lady should be the person that the son liked, so he asked people to take out these few skins, which is not a tribute, and it is a good thing to give the son a beautiful gift." Yunhua said politely: "How can this work, how can it win people's love for nothing." Mr. Ge said with a smile: "As long as the son does not dislike it, the old man is happy to offer this and show his heart." ”
Yunhua knew that Mr. Ge was a veteran in the business field, and he was familiar with the way of making money with harmony, and every time he made enough money, he would find some appropriate reasons to return some appropriate value to his customers, which not only deepened the relationship, but also consolidated the long-term cooperation. In Mr. Ge's view, if both parties can experience joy and gain from a business, the business will be successful. Seeing Mr. Ge's sincere gift, Yunhua said with a smile: "Since Mr. Ge is so generous, the younger generation is better than obeying his fate." ”
Mr. Ge waved his hand to let the young man retreat to the back, and said with a smile: "Don't dare, if the son doesn't dislike the old and stupid, I will personally do it, make the boots and hat collar, and when the time comes, together with the ready-to-wear, I will send it to the house for you." Yunhua said: "I am grateful to bother you old man to do it yourself." It's just that these clothes and fabrics are not family, and you have to trouble sending them separately. ”
At this time, he thought in his heart that since he planned to return to Jiangnan Villa tomorrow, it was better for Li Zhuoran's satin cotton robe and Ou Jinshu's clothes to be sent to them separately, so as not to prevent them from moving back from Qingpingzhai. I first took Su Mengtang and Ximen's fabrics back today, and Qiuqiu's clothes, when they were ready, and then let them send them to Qingpingzhai with Pizi, and Uncle Lao Feng to the mountain.
After some calculation, Yun Hua told Mr. Ge the location of Yun Zhai, Qing Ping Zhai and Ou Fu, and quietly took out a gold ingot from his cuff, handed it to Mr. Ge, and said, "Thank you for your hard work." Mr. Ge nodded and whispered, "Then thank you Gongzi." After a short time, Qiuqiu, Li Zhuoran and others walked out of the inner room, and everyone discussed when Zhuoran's ready-to-wear clothes and brocade brocade would be sent, so they took the brocade for Jiangnan Villa and took the car back home.
In the afternoon, it rained again, and in the evening, the thunder rumbled, and it was already pouring down. Bihu asked Yunhua: "Childe, such a heavy rain, will you go back tomorrow?" Yunhua stood under the corridor, looked at the splash of rain on the ground, and said: "With such a heavy rain, I'm afraid I won't be able to go tomorrow morning, so wait for a day." "Who knew that the rain in the sky continued to rain intermittently for three or four days, and the rain continued unabated, and even became heavier and heavier, and the water in the pond almost overflowed the white stone and flowed into the courtyard.
Ou Jinshu looked at the heavy rain outside the window and said to Qiuqiu: "Xiaoqiu, have you ever seen such a heavy rain?" Qiuqiu was lying on the bed watching "Erya", and when she heard Jinshu ask her, she said, "I haven't seen it." Ou Jinshu looked out and said, "Yes, I haven't seen such heavy rain in seven or eight years." She looked at it for a moment, then suddenly got up and pulled something out of her baggage with a clattering sound.
Qiuqiu curiously sat up from the bed and asked, "Aunt Jinshu, what are you looking for?" Ou Jinshu took out a hollow copper turtle shell from his baggage, took out a string of copper coins pierced by red rope, and said: "I want to count a hexagram to see if this heavy rain is bad or auspicious." So saying, he brought the two objects to the table. When Qiuqiu heard that Ou Jinshu was going to tell fortunes, she felt interesting in her heart, so she hurriedly put down the book and walked to the opposite side of Ou Jinshu and sat down.
Ou Jinshu dismantled the strings of copper coins, counted thirteen, put them one by one from the larger holes in the turtle shell, and then picked up the turtle shell, covered the upper and lower holes with both hands, closed his eyes, raised them to the top of his head and shook them, and said in his mouth: "Copper tortoise shell, golden bean soldiers, Zhao'er came to ask the Xuanjing; The way is not right, the thing is the sound, and the divination is for peace; Ask what is the matter, listen in the shell, and show the hexagram so as not to frighten the ghosts and gods. After that, he aimed at the hollow of the turtle shell, said a few words softly, and then held the turtle shell in his hand, and shouted in his mouth: Hexagram! Turning the hole in the turtle shell downward, he threw his hand away, and the thirteen copper coins fell from the turtle shell to the table with a clang.
Qiuqiu looked at Ou Jinshu's serious appearance, worried that she would disturb her practice, and she didn't dare to breathe. At this time, Ou Jinshu put the turtle shell aside, began to study the direction and number of copper coins, and said in his mouth: "Five green dragons, one white tiger, weak soil and strong water are strong and harmful to Hegu, three vermilion birds, four Xuanwu, Yin people are stalkers and empty labor... Oh no, it's a bad hexagram. ”
When Qiuqiu heard the word "fierce hexagram", she felt a chill, she tightened the gown she was wearing and asked, "Aunt Jinshu, does this mean that the crops will suffer when it rains heavily?" Ou Jinshu raised his head and said: "No, what I am asking about is the bad luck of our people, judging from the hexagram, I am afraid that there will be ominous in the near future." ”
