Chapter XXVIII

Chu Dashan earned money, and when he came back, he and the Yu family continued to make bamboo chairs.

Chu Yuqin occasionally nodded a few words, so the monotonous bamboo chair quickly turned into a variety of forms.

Yu is a very thoughtful woman. Sometimes she came up with an idea, and Chu Dashan fully cooperated, which became a new pleasure between husband and wife.

Chu Yuqin worked hard to do his job.

The flowers in the yard grow superbly. After picking, a batch of fine pastes was made.

However, the price of this batch of face cream is definitely different from that of ordinary face cream. In order to match the consumption of ordinary people, she made another batch of ordinary ones.

"Sister Qin, this is the flower I picked from the mountain next door."

Chu Butterfly came over with a basket of flowers.

"The quality is very good. Butterfly, the next mountain is a little far away, how dare you go alone? Don't go in the future. Safety first. ”

Chu Yuqin took out ten cents and stuffed it into her hand.

"No, I don't. I didn't go there on purpose to gather firewood around there. Anyway, the flowers are not heavy, so you don't have to give me money. ”

Chu Butterfly hurriedly waved his hand.

"Silly sister, the petals are not heavy, but it takes time and effort for you to pick. Take it! I use the petals you pick to make a face cream, and I earn even more. ”

Chu Yulan echoed beside her: "Take it!" ”

Chu Butterfly blushed and then made a heavy copper coin.

"It's the first time I've touched money."

"In the future, there will be such petals, and it will still be a basket of ten pennies. However, you can't take any chances, or I won't take it. ”

Chu Yuqin pretended to be serious and scared her.

Chu Butterfly nodded: "Okay." I don't go to the mountains anymore, I only pick outside. ”

"Find a place to hide, don't give it to your family. They are adults and have a way to make money. And you'll need money. ”

"Hmm." Chu Butterfly held the copper coin tightly.

With the copper coin, I feel that I suddenly have a backbone, and it seems that my back is straighter.

"I can't do it alone, you two can help me! I'll clean up the petals and give you two pennies. ”

"Do I have that too?" Chu Yulan leaned over with a smile.

"You can't do without you. Sisters settle accounts. Chu Yuqin teased her.

Chu Butterfly is an extremely hardworking person.

With the ten cents I earned for the first time, I picked flowers every time I picked up firewood, and I could carry three or four baskets every day.

In order not to be discovered by others, she spread a layer of firewood on top of it to make others think that she was picking up firewood.

"Big girl, it's market day again. What else is there to be busy with, mother help you. ”

"Daddy will help you too." Chu Dashan said: "The bamboo chair has done so much, don't do it first." Your things are also important. According to your mother, many people have already asked you to order in the last market. We can't make others wait for a long time, otherwise no matter how good the business is, it won't last long. ”

"Dad, mother, you can help me grind these petals into powder!"

Chu Yuqin arranged the work in his hand to the two of them.

Chu Lihong also came to help after school.

The whole family worked together to finally make more than 20 boxes of medium samples, more than 30 boxes of small samples, and 10 boxes of large samples before the market.

"Sister, if all these goods are sold, we will follow you to eat and drink spicy food."

Chu Yuqin glanced at him: "Do you think I can't sell it?" ”

"Mother said that a lot of people are looking for you. It shouldn't be impossible to sell. However, if you want to sell them all...... Difficult. Let's do the math. Ten taels of silver for a large bottle, five taels for a medium bottle, and two taels for a small bottle. Ten boxes of large bottles are one hundred taels, twenty-two boxes of medium bottles are one hundred and ten taels, and thirty-five boxes of small bottles are seventy taels. and it was two hundred and eighty taels of silver. ”

Yu Clan and Chu Dashan widened their eyes.

Chu Yulan covered her mouth, her face full of consternation.

Chu Yuqin looked Chu Lihong up and down.

"Didn't your master teach you to read and write? Why is arithmetic also taught? ”

"Our Master is omnipotent. He said that as the son of a farmer, he usually sells something to settle accounts, otherwise he will be cheated by others. ”

"Your master is quite far-sighted. To thank him for teaching you, I'll send him some flower pastries I made later. However, you have overlooked one thing, and that is that two of the ten boxes of samples are high-quality creams, and one bottle is worth twenty taels of silver. ”

"Huh? So expensive? You're robbing money, aren't you? ”

Chu Dashan interrupted the joke of the two siblings.

"Big girl, your mother and I don't know this, and we don't know that these things are worth so much silver. Can we sell it? ”

"Daddy!"

Chu Yuqin hugged Yu's arm.

"Has my mother become more beautiful recently?"

Chu Dashan's old face turned red.

Yu's face was also full of embarrassment.

"You girl...... Make fun of your mother. ”

"You say, has my mother become more beautiful?"

Chu Yuqin asked Chu Yulan and Chu Lihong again.

The two nodded.

"I really can't sell it, the three women in our family can use it for themselves! Afraid of what? This thing doesn't break. ”

When a few people heard it, this was the truth.

Anyway, I did it myself, and it didn't cost anything.

It's just that the whole family has been busy with this thing lately, and has spent a lot of energy in it.

"Can I go and witness a miracle tomorrow?"

Chu Lihong looked at them pitifully.

"You're going to school."

"If you don't go for a day once in a while......"

Chu Lihong didn't finish his words, and was glared at by the whole family.

In their eyes, going to school is the most important thing.

"Forget it, when I didn't say it."

Chu Yuqin did what he said. After dinner, she made a flower puff pastry out of the remaining petals.

Considering that men don't like sweet, they made it salty.

After Chu Lihong sent flowers to Ling Shengyi next door, the whole person was extremely excited.

"The Master said that tomorrow would be a day off. Can I go into town with you? ”

"It wasn't like you telling your master that you wanted to take leave, did you?"

Chu Yuqin looked at him with suspicion.

"The conscience of heaven and earth, absolutely not. It seems that the master is also going to the market, so he will rest tomorrow morning and go back to class as usual in the afternoon. ”

"Oh."

On the second day, the whole family got up early and hurried in good spirits.

This time there was a rattan rocking chair, thirty small chairs, and two dozen medium chairs.

Because there are so many things, they are tied high with rope.

Chu Dashan was a little difficult to push alone, and the Yu clan was beside him to help him.

Chu Lihong and Chu Yuqin wanted to help, but their parents didn't allow it. After all, one of them is still young, and the other is soft and weak.

Chu Yuqin's goods were wrapped in cloth and carried on his back.

Anyway, they were all small bottles, and each one was wrapped in rags so as not to break them.

"It's finally here."

Chu Lihong stood at the gate of the city.

"Sister, where to go first?"

"Let's sell my father's goods first. Otherwise, there are too many things, and we won't be able to walk around the city. ”

"Do you want to go to Carpenter Zhang?"

"Yes."

Carpenter Zhang is in a good mood today.

The rattan rocking chair I bought a few days ago was sold, and it was sold for 500 yuan. I don't know when that little girl will come back. The guest said that as long as it was still in stock, he would buy it again.
