Chapter 149: Preparations
These are not for people to eat by themselves, they are all used for gifts, the number is not allowed, just look good and have noodles.
After explaining clearly, Tian Qingan called his father again, went back to the other side, and borrowed the ox cart of Old Man Tian's house with two bags of snacks and a bag of candy.
Although the ox cart had a share of her family when the family was separated, the last time she went to borrow it, she was told by the old lady that she would not give a gift when she came to the door, and she borrowed it later, so she brought snacks.
Thinking about it, she felt that she should buy a cow for herself, and it was not a matter of borrowing it.
"What are you doing in town?"
Tian Dazhuang asked, "Wait until I ask your mother for some money." ”
My dad is now cleaner than his face, and he doesn't have a penny!
I don't know what my dad said, Chen Qiao'e actually took a silver ticket of fifty taels!
Her own wife is far richer than she imagined!
Before, it cost more than 100 taels just to supplement books for the eldest brother and buy pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., and then he took out 50 taels without frowning, "Dad, why is my mother so rich, my grandfather left a lot of money for my mother, right?" ”
Tian Dazhuang snorted, "There are only a few shops, and there is a lot of silver at the bottom of the box, but it is almost spent with so much money, and your mother doesn't have much money in her hand!" ”
"Mother still wants a shop?" The original little girl has no interest in these things, and she doesn't know anything about it.
"There are two shops in the capital, and there is also a yard and two shops in the county."
So?
Daddy, you're a soft rice eater!
"What are you doing now?"
"Rented out."
"Dad, is our grocery store also my mother's dowry?"
Probably not, didn't you buy it two years ago?
"No, I bought it later, but it's also in your mother's name, so don't be angry with your mother in the future, all the good things are in your mother's hands, be careful not to marry you!"
Tian Qingan is noncommittal, after all, she is an adult who has received a modern elite education, and she is not incapable, and she still needs to gnaw at the old?
While the father and daughter were talking, Tian Qing'an's ox cart drove quickly, and they arrived in the town in an hour.
"What are you buying?" Tian Dazhuang asked.
"Paint, color those boxes, and, Dad, do you know where to sell oil paper and colored paper?"
"What do you want all this for?"
"Mooncakes wrapped in oil paper, of course, colored paper is used for decoration...... I also have to go to the lacquerware shop and buy more boxes! ”
"Didn't you do it?"
"Not enough, not enough class!"
In fact, she is very confident in her craft, she is professional, but she can't paint it, so she still uses some professionalism.
"There are no lacquerware shops in the town, only in the county." Tian Dazhuang said, "And those boxes are very expensive!" ”
"Let's see when the time comes!" Planning is one thing, but she will make adjustments at any time, and if the boxes in the lacquerware shop are not as beautiful and delicate as she makes, only the paint is brilliant, but the price is very expensive, she will also think about it more.
There was no lacquerware shop, so the two went to buy paint.
There was a shop in the town that sold furniture, and the ones bought at a high price in it didn't have many eyes, the most was bright red, then tan, and it was gone.
Although the price is high, there is not much left of this house, the town is so poor, except for the furniture used for the happy occasion will be specially colored, few people will color the furniture.
Tian Qingan was quite disappointed.
Let my father take him to buy five barrels of tung oil, and then go to the dye shop to buy a lot of bright paints.
She has already thought about it, these paints will be used on the hollow gift box, the pigment will be mixed with water at that time, and then dipped in the color with a brush, although slow, but better-looking, there can be green leaves, red flowers, unlike paint, green leaves and green flowers.
After the lamp is colored, it is brushed with two layers of tung oil to prevent discoloration.
Carrying tung oil paint or something to the ox cart, the father and daughter pulled the ox cart away, these things were too precious to be put in the inn.
I didn't find the oil paper, only the dim sum shop, but they don't sell it.
Colored paper is even less available.
"What to do?" Daddy was very worried.
"It's okay, let's go to the cloth shop first, Dad, and go to the kind of silk that has it."
"Okay."
There is only one shop in the town that buys silk, Jinhuafang.
Located in the center of the town, although the location is good, but the business is not good.
Tian Dazhuang looked at the ox cart outside the door, Tian Qingan went in to see it alone, who knew that as soon as he glanced at it, a guy shouted, "Where is it called Huazi, can you come here, look at the dirty ground that you have trampled on, go out, go out, get out!" ”
Tian Qingan didn't want to move, no one could push it, these annoyed the guy, he said angrily: "I want to find something, right, you don't want to see who the owner here is, hurry up, don't wait for me to take a broom to drive you out!" ”
Tian Qingan couldn't help frowning, if she had put aside her previous life, she would have left a long time ago, and she would have to promote it for them when she turned back, but she had to sell moon cakes tomorrow, and there was only one seller of silk in the town, so she had no choice!
Fortunately, a middle-aged woman came out at this time, saw the guy pushing her, and asked, "What are you doing?" ”
The middle-aged woman is well maintained, and the clothes on her body are at least two taels of silver, and this person comes out of it, and nine times out of ten she is the owner or proprietress of this shop!
She hurriedly said: "Hello boss, I want to buy silk, but he won't let me buy it!" ”
"Boss, the cheapest silk in our store costs 500 yuan a foot, do you think she can afford it? I look like she's trying to steal! ”
Fortunately, the boss here is not bad, not like this guy who looks down on people!
"Get out of the way, let's all watch here, don't get in the way, little girl, just look at it!"
"Thank you!"
Originally, there were still a bunch of things at home, and he was delayed by this guy for a long time, Tian Qingan quickly looked at it and quickly chose two styles of cloth.
One is bright red, and another is golden.
The festival is celebrated, and the golden yellow represents autumn.
Pointing to these two colors of fabric, "I want these two, all of them need three zhang, I want more, can you give it cheaper?" ”
"Do you have the money to buy it? Don't cut it, you don't want it! ”
Tian Qingan ignored him, and only looked at the boss with clear eyes.
The boss didn't bother with the guy's pillar, and replied: "The red one zhang costs three taels, and the yellow one costs two taels, are you sure they all need three zhang?" ”
Tian Qingan nodded, "Yes, it's a total of fifteen taels, right?" Here you go! ”
Before coming in, Daddy gave her the last twenty taels of silver, and she took out a silver ticket of ten taels from her purse, and handed over a silver ticket of five taels!
The man's eyes widened instantly, and he looked at Tian Qingan in disbelief, dressed in such tatters, he could actually take out fifteen taels of silver?!
Tian Qingan is actually not worn.
It's the cotton cloth that my mother bought in the town before, but she is climbing the mountain, making things, and living mud, and her body is dirty, so it doesn't look good.
