Chapter 15: A Proposal
Chapter XV: A Proposal
Shang Ruonan and Wanglan didn't feel anything, one didn't understand it, and the other didn't take selling white cloth seriously. However, Shang Ruonan's eyes lit up when he heard that there was a white cloth. In my previous life, I was poor and loved stinky beauty, so I always wondered how to make my clothes different, but let myself find some ways.
Therefore, I am still a little sure about printing and dyeing. Seeing Daddy's sad face. Shang Ruonan said softly on the side:
"Dad, can you dye white cloth into beautiful cloth and sell it?"
"Huh? Yes! ”
Shang Ruonan was still timid and spoke very quietly, and Shang Dongliang almost suspected that he had heard it wrong. After turning his head to look at his daughter, he said:
"I know that white cloth can be dyed and sold, but first, we won't be able to dye so much white cloth. Now dyed, no one has a beam, and the embroidered flowers are beautiful! ”
Shang Dongliang didn't take the child's words as child's play, but still answered his daughter seriously. Shang Ruonan thought about it and said:
"If you don't give me a piece of cloth to try, I might have done it differently. Is it good? Father? ”
Looking at his daughter's coquettish appearance, how could Shang Dongliang disagree, this daughter originally seemed to have been picked up. Doctor Wen said no, but I didn't expect her to come back to life, not to mention that she was alive, and she recovered so well all of a sudden.
Okay, let's make things for the children, anyway, the children are small, and their nurses are chasing them to learn to embroider something. Then give them a horse to play with.
With my father's approval. Shang Ruonan smiled at the sixth sister with some excitement, and then said softly:
"Dad, I also need dyes of various colors."
In fact, after saying that, she was still nervous in her heart, what if the statement here was different?
"Shopkeeper Yang, when you turn around, you will have someone send some of our previous dyes to Miss Four, as well as cloth."
After that, he turned his head to look at his daughter on the left and right, and said:
"Take two horses of cloth. Anyway, they have a lot of sisters, so they may have to play when they play. ”
Shopkeeper Yang and Shopkeeper Fu looked at the boss's favorite girl, and they both sighed in their hearts. He doesn't care about the business here, but he arranges the things of his daughters properly. There's really no way to meet this boss.
But no matter what, the matter is not settled yet. Boss Yang was so anxious that he stepped forward and said:
"The rice grain store, you said to open the warehouse and release the grain. That's more than enough. What about our cloth village? You see, now the warehouse is full of some goods that came in last year, which can't be sold! What if all those old customers are gone? ”
Shang Dongliang still waved his hand impatiently and said:
"You take the cloth in the warehouse first, and if there is a customer, explain it, saying that I am sick and did not go to the stock, and when I am sick, I will go to the stock!"
The eyes of the people in the room widened, looking at Shang Dongliang, Shang Ruonan wanted to ask, is it really the father with a shrewd business mind that the eldest sister said that told such a scoundrel-like lie?
Shopkeeper Yang and Shopkeeper Fu can't cry or laugh, with such a scoundrel boss, what else can they do. Shopkeeper Yang sighed and said:
"Boss, are you sure it's good?"
"Nice, huh? I haven't been going out lately! ”
Shang Ruonan, who really couldn't see it, said on the side:
"Daddy! Old customers still can't be offended casually, right? Will the business continue in the future? ”
Shang Dongliang looked back at the four girls with some surprise this time, this girl used to speak in a low voice, but now she dares to answer when the adults are talking? Regardless of whether this is rude or not, this girl has changed!
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Shang Ruonan was a little uncomfortable, and he didn't want to be the point that everyone paid attention to. But now everyone has seen it. I, a modern person, would still be afraid of them?
Coughing lightly, he mustered up his courage and said:
"Dad, you don't have a lot of rice now, then give rice to the people who come to buy cloth, only send as much as you buy, and don't give away if you buy less. Wouldn't that sell the cloth? Although it was last year's cloth, it was also a new cloth. If you don't want to be fastidious, tell them to wait a minute, and we'll dye the cloth and give it to them first, so that they will be happy. ”
Shang Dongliang was still surprised by the child's thoughts. Shopkeeper Yang frowned and said:
"You said that you can buy cloth and send rice, you can think about it a little, although no one sells things and gives things away. But when it comes to dyeing cloth, you can't do it yet, Miss Four, so let's talk about playing, how can you give people promises. ”
These words aroused Shang Ruonan's temperament! With a stiff neck, he said solemnly:
"I will, you brought the cloth. I'll show you. ”
Shang Dongliang now just wanted to send the two shopkeepers away, and waved his hand:
"I think what Ruonan said is also good, what about you, open a warehouse and sell grain, what about you, sell cloth and send rice. That's it. Oh, bring the cloth to Miss Four, let her try it, maybe it will be done. ”
Hearing that his father also supported him, Shang Ruonan smiled happily!
Seeing this daughter smile, Shang Dongliang felt that it was worth it! Thinking about it, I haven't seen this daughter smile for a long time, others think that the seven daughters of the merchant are the ugliest, but in fact, they haven't seen Ruonan smile, Ruonan laughs makes you feel that the sky is clear, and all the haze in your heart has disappeared.
The shopkeeper Yang and the shopkeeper Fu reluctantly retreated, and said that they would send the things when they went back. They're gone. Shang Ruonan saw his father's eyes, looked left and right with some evasion, and then said unobtrusively:
"Dad, did my mother ask us to come and see you for dinner?"
Shang Dongliang shook his head and said:
"Forced here by those two old guys, I haven't eaten yet. Let's go, let's go back to the inner courtyard to eat, and I'll go see your mother." I'm afraid I'm sleeping now. ”
Shang Dongliang stood up, walked to the backyard with his two daughters, walked two steps and looked back at the fourth daughter who followed him, a little puzzled, but still asked:
"Wakanan? Does your head really hurt anymore? ”
"It doesn't hurt anymore."
"Do you really know how to dye cloth? Didn't you say to play? ”
"Really, I didn't say to play, but I probably don't have much strength. I want my father to send two more powerful people to help me. ”
Shang Dongliang looked at his daughter again, didn't respond, and went back to the backyard.
Sure enough, when Shang Dongliang had eaten, someone brought the white cloth and some dyes that Shang Ruonan wanted, and Shang Ruonan stepped forward to take a look. These white cloths are really good, soft and delicate, and if they are dyed and lustful, then they can really make very beautiful clothes.
The eldest sister waited for her mother to fall asleep. Everyone came to Shang Ruonan's courtyard to see the excitement, and they didn't know what Shang Ruonan was going to do, especially the third Panlan, who jumped up and down! It's like a head with a hundred thousand whys around Ruo Nan there. Keep asking this and that.
