Chapter 98: Selling Things

The group walked along the street like this, and when they reached the entrance of the alley next to a rice noodle shop, they turned in and walked straight, passing by some shops and stalls in the alley, and came to the next street.

The street is a little smaller than the one in the square, but it's also very spacious.

At this time, it is also very lively.

Shi Ling's textile shop is on this street, and there is a signboard hanging on the spacious shop with the two big characters Shi Fen.

Today is the polder day, the business in Shi Ling's textile store is even more hot, customers are like clouds, and the small maids who are doing chores inside are also jumping up and down to take cloth from the big wooden frame, greeting guests, and they are busy and lacking skills.

Yuan Man followed Shi Ling in, and Zhou Yu also politely beckoned Yuan Dashuo and his wife and Yuan Wu to go in, and Yuan Dashuo and his wife were really flattered.

I feel that the luck of my little girl is okay, and I meet nobles one after another.

"Yo, Miss, why did you come here at this time!" The middle-aged uncle who looked like a steward hurriedly greeted him, bowed and smiled and said with a very humble appearance.

"Bring a friend over to sell things, Uncle Guo, you are so good to take a look at the goods and weigh a good price for them."

Shi Ling pulled Yuan Man with one hand and the kite with the other, and commanded with a smile.

"Eh, eh, eldest lady's friend, I will definitely take a good look at it in the future." Shopkeeper Guo smiled busily.

He didn't know that Shi Ling was alerting him, his young lady's friend, of course, the price should be fairer.

Only then did the shopkeeper Guo welcome Yuan Dashuo and Wen to the side hall, called a young man, and told him to measure the cloth and prepare to estimate the price.

Although the material used in Wen's weaving is average, but it is the lowest grade cotton cloth, she is very careful and weaves it well, so it can be sold at a good price.

But when the shopkeeper Guo inspected the cloth and quoted the price of one or two or four yuan, the Yuan family was still stunned, and Wen and her husband looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

In the past, they used to sell their cloth by Ge Shi himself, and every time they said that they would sell it for 900 yuan, and if they bought some cotton thread and came back, they would earn 600 yuan per piece of cloth.

Now the high price of one or two or four dollars of silver really surprised and delighted them.

Yuan Man also remembered the price of the cloth that Ge Shi said in his mind, so he opened his mouth and said tentatively: "Is this cloth really so valuable?" Sister Ling, don't let him go up because of sympathy for me? That's unacceptable! ”

Shi Ling hurriedly pulled her and explained, "How come! My family is in business, can I still make myself lose money? It can only be said that it will give you a fair price, and don't let you be bluffed by other stores. ”

Guo's shopkeeper also smiled and said: "Yes, yes, usually this kind of cotton cloth, the price of a horse is about one or two two or three yuan, like your craftsmanship, and we are a friend of our young lady, so I give the highest price of one or two or four yuan, to be honest, we still have a profit!" Businessmen are the most careful, how can they do loss-making transactions! ”

Since she didn't deliberately raise the price for them, according to the shopkeeper Guo, her mother's normally embroidered cloth could be sold for one, two, two or three yuan in other stores, but her grandmother actually said that it was only sold for nine hundred yuan??

Yuan Man sneered, it's really amazing.

Yuan Dashuo and Wen's faces also changed suddenly when they heard this, and they understood that it was Ge's who had made another sum of money from it.

But there is nothing to do about her.

After all, the family is now separated, and she will not be able to live in their house in the future.

Yuan Man endured the anger against Ge Shi in his heart, and said with relief on his face, and said embarrassedly to Shi Ling: "I don't want Sister Ling to lose money for me, since it is a fair price, I should also thank Sister Ling for giving us the highest price..."

Shi Ling also glanced at her and said, "This is what you deserve, it just so happens that I see that your craftsmanship is so good, and we also have jobs in our store, so you can take the job at my house in the future!" It just so happened that I wanted to replace those cheating and slippery old women! The cloth sent is getting worse and worse, if it is not out of stock, they are all veterans of some stores, afraid of chilling the hearts of other skillful old women, we don't want to accept those cloths to ruin the grade and reputation of the store. ”

Wen was overjoyed when he heard this, such a high price is really a good thing!

When the shopkeeper Guo heard about it, he saw that his young lady and the young master of the Zhou family were close to their family, so he knew that they wanted to help the family.

So he smiled and said: "Exactly, it just so happens that there are batches of high-quality cotton threads, and there is a shortage of skilled people to take over the work!" Since you're good at your craft, let's take some back and do it! ”

Wen nodded busily, Yuan Dashuo was thoughtful, and asked, "Is there a delivery time for this cloth?" To catch up or not to rush? ”

Guo's shopkeeper responded, explaining: "Oh, this is not in a hurry, it is only the beginning of the first month, this batch of goods will be transported to the capital by a ship with other goods at the end of February, but there is no hurry, you can pick up as much as you want, this cotton thread is out of our store, you just have to take it back, and I will give you a piece of cloth for one or two or five dollars." ”

This sounds like a really good job, it's only the beginning of the first month, and there is still a long time to the end of February, which is enough for the Wen family to be busy for a while, but the price is also very high.

Wen couldn't be happy in his heart, he was really lucky to bump into such a good thing.

She could weave one-and-a-half to two-horse cloth a month, which was enough time for her to earn a small fortune.

Yuan Dashuo nodded straightly, grinning happily, obviously happy to have an entry.

In this way, the price of this cloth was set, and some other scattered handkerchiefs were sold for one or two dollars, and Yuan embroidered non-stop, so the income was no worse than Wen's.

The last is eight small handkerchiefs, which Wen and Yuan learned to embroider while looking at the embroidery book, and sold a cotton cloth handkerchief for a high price of five cents.

also made Yuan embroidery happy, and the pear socket at the corner of his mouth never fell.

In the end, the accumulated cloth embroidery was sold for two taels and five pieces of silver and forty cents.

The Yuan family is happy and happy.

Shi Ling saw their happy appearance, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, Zhou Yu kept looking at Yuan Man silently, and he didn't bother much, nor was he overly close, but he kept guarding.

Until the things are sold and the cotton thread of one and a half cloths is taken, Shi Ling wants to personally send the Yuanman family out, and let the shopkeeper Guo be busy with the rest, and there are many customers in the store.

Shi Ling and Zhou Yu sent the Yuanman family to the door, and they were ready to separate.

"That's it, I'll just help the family take a look at the store, so I'll send you here, I'll take you around here another day when I'm free, eh, by the way, are you free on the sixth day of the new year? The flower temple is just about to be sacrificed over there, let's make an appointment to pray for blessings that day, Sister Man, you and your family will also come together, right? ”

Shi Ling said goodbye but invited the next meeting.

The main reason is that she really thinks that Yuan Man is close, and she doesn't know why when she chats.

Yuan Man heard that he wanted to join in the fun, but he was worried about his family, so he looked at her father.

Yuan Dashuo was about to open his mouth to get rid of it, he had to prepare for the wasteland in two days, and he didn't want the little girl to walk around outside, the child was still young, and it was dangerous outside, and he didn't have time to play with her everywhere, so he could only wait for him next time, when he was free.

Wen had already spoken, and she was rarely interested, she said: "I also went to this flower temple once when I was a child, and it is very effective, but I don't know if the taboos and sacrifices prepared today can be changed?" ”

The implication of her words is that she is ready to go, and the little girl has been blessed after the catastrophe, and now she has met nobles again and again, and the blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, she is always worried that the little girl will not be good.

So she took this opportunity to pray for the little girl, other children and her husband.
