Chapter 342: Purchasing
Liu San glanced at his shopkeeper very helplessly, didn't say anything, obediently took the flowers and the silver ticket and went out to buy things.
After sending Liu San away and asking him to buy things for himself, Si Si was tired of reading and couldn't stand it anymore.
Probably because Qi Zhaodi came to cooperate with her today, it gave her a lot of stimulation, and she couldn't calm down at this time.
Seeing that there were no customers in the store anyway, Si Si simply stood up, brushed his hair slightly, called a person in the middle to help look after the store, and went out for a walk.
Although now is the time to be short of money, Si Si doesn't want to treat himself and the people around him badly to come out to buy something or anything, and the money is still there.
Liu San should have bought all the things he had just explained.
Si Si couldn't think of what to buy for a while, so he walked around slowly, looking at the shops along the street, and thinking.
I guess I forgot to buy spices.
Si Si happened to pass by a grocery store, so he simply walked in to buy spices.
There are only a few grocery stores in the town, and Si Si is already a regular customer, because this is a regular customer, she didn't ask the price after she went in, and directly asked the guy to help her weigh three catties of salt, and she looked at the spices on the side, thinking about what else to buy back.
Before I could talk about buying anything else, I heard the guy say: "Three catties of good official salt, one hundred and five yuan, because this guest is a regular customer, I will wipe you with a fraction of this five yuan, and I will charge you a hundred yuan." ”
Si Si was still thinking about what else he needed, but when he suddenly heard this price, he felt that something was wrong, and asked, "The price of this salt doesn't seem to be right, has the price increased recently?" ”
How do you remember the last time I came to buy it, I only charged 90 yuan for three catties! It's only a long time of effort, why is there an extra five wen per catty?
"Isn't it, this business has been getting worse and worse lately."
It shouldn't be the first time that guy has met someone who asks for a price, and he is very happy to tell the reason.
"Recently, I heard that I don't know what's going on, it's a lot of trouble, people in the capital are panicking, the caravans are not big, and they are willing to do business, it's almost the New Year, the goods sent over, much less than in previous years, and the price has been raised, we have no way, we can't lose money!"
"I see."
Si Si nodded, and didn't want to embarrass people, and quickly said several spices and weights such as pepper, cumin, and fennel, and asked the guy to weigh it and pay for it, and asked him to help send it to his own store, so as not to go shopping with things in his hands, and he was very tired.
After paying the bill, Si Si walked out of the grocery store and turned a corner to go to the ready-to-wear store on the next street to buy clothes.
In fact, if she could, she would like to buy some cloth to make her own clothes, but she completely forgot about this year's New Year, and if she came to do it now, it would be too late for Sisi alone, so it was better to buy a few clothes to wear first.
It's not too far away, and soon it will be to the cloth village, and there are not many people in the store at this time, too, this is closed for nearly a year, and the family wants to make new clothes, and they have bought it early to go back and do it themselves, and most of the ones bought now are ready to marry a daughter or daughter-in-law after the New Year.
There were only a few elderly women in the shop, and a few girls who looked like they were just passing the cloth and carrying the fabric. Bookstore.com
As soon as Si Si entered the store, a guy immediately greeted him: "What is this guest officer going to buy?" There is everything in the store, this is the New Year, the fabrics are cheap, the more you buy, the cheaper, the price, absolutely you are satisfied. ”
"Oh, is that so?"
Si Si, who originally just wanted to buy a few new clothes to go back, heard the news, and immediately became moved.
An adult's clothes will take about 50 feet of material, and a child's 30s will probably be about the same.
Si Si was thinking about making a new set of clothes by himself, Lu Yanjixiang was also making a new clothes, and the village chief and his wife.
That's right! and the child named Zhou Bowen, who has been with Jixiang, has also done a good job.
So much to do, it may be a little troublesome, Si thought, otherwise, let Wanxi help him do it together, I heard that his craftsmanship is also good, and then give some wages.
Si Si thought about it like this and said, "What do you look like in cotton and linen here?" How much is a piece of cloth? ”
Ordinary people wear cotton and linen materials, not to mention that they are durable, they are comfortable to wear, and they are not expensive.
"Look, this is the cotton and linen in my shop." The guy brought two pieces of cloth with his hands and feet, and asked Si Si to take a look, "This linen cloth, five cents a foot, white cotton cloth, seven cents a foot, if you want to dye, some patterns, then the price will be raised, different patterns, the price is also different, you can go to the platform over there to take a closer look." ”
Si Si followed the guy over, not to mention, there are really a lot of such formulas, so that people's eyes are almost unable to see it.
Si Si did things simply, without so many entanglements, glanced over, and when he saw something pleasing to the eye, he asked the man to pick it up, "Two horses of this type of material, and then five pieces of cotton cloth and six horses of fine linen, one each of dark blue and cyan, and one of tender yellow." ”
It's still big business!
When the guy heard that Si Si wanted to buy so much, his face immediately smiled, and he quickly wrapped the fabric, seeing that Si Si came to buy it alone, thinking that she couldn't take it, and asked someone to help send it over.
"In this case, the rice that was sent to my house will be laid, and then thirty catties of cotton will be loaded and sent over one piece."
Si Si paid the money, sent someone to send the things to his shop, ran out again, and walked around casually, there was nothing to buy, just bought some for snacks, and walked back.
When Si Si went back, all the things he bought had been delivered, and Liu San, who was sent out by himself, also came back.
"Shopkeeper, you've bought so many things!"
Liu San said as he gave Si Si all the money he had left after buying things.
Si Si took the money, took half a tael of silver from it and gave it to Liu San, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, you take this little thing and give it to Wanxi to eat, she loves to eat these small snacks." ”
Liu San didn't excuse himself when he heard this, and simply accepted it.
