From He Miao's entry into the mansion to the present, this is the first time that Xiao Man has seriously looked at the other party.

The hair was all tied up, revealing the little white face, a pair of red phoenix eyes, the nose without obvious male humps, coupled with the pointed chin, at first glance she looked like a girl, but He Miao grew very tall, which made people have to ignore this impression.

The texture of the robe he wore was the most ordinary, but the stitches were very fine and dense, and it could be seen that a lot of thought had been put into it. The pair of black boots He Miao was wearing were also exposed a little, and he couldn't see anything from Xiaoman's angle, but he could only see that the shoes should be newly made.

After looking at it, Xiao Man raised his eyes to look at He Miao and raised his eyebrows, "Then tell me about the price you know." ”

He Miao nodded in response, then cleared his throat and began to say: "As far as I know, in the capital of Bei'an, the most popular and highest-priced store is Hao Yixuan in the north of the city. ”

"And after it gets colder, Hao Yixuan's clothes range from fifteen taels of silver to thirty taels of silver, and the prices of some shoes and accessories in their house, does Madame want to know?"

Xiao Man shook his head, "No need, you just need to know the price of the clothes." ”

Now that he knew the price of a pair, Xiao Man also asked the two of them to go back first, but this time He Miao still refused to leave, looking at Xiao Man with a look of concern, and he seemed to have something to say.

She knew that the child was shy, so she took Wang Dacui away first, and then said: "He Miao, if you have something, just say it." ”

There were only Xiao Man and her two personal maids left in the house, He Miao clenched her hands tightly, and made mental preparations for a long time before she raised her head and said very carefully: "Madam, I heard from the Jade Girl that those cotton clothes you brought from Donglan are unsalable in Bei'an, right?" ”

Xiao Man couldn't help but glance at Jade, and after getting a positive look, she turned her head to look at the other party and said, "That's right, what?" Do you have any ideas? ”

He Miao clenched her palms, and her cheeks were inexplicably red: "If Madame doesn't dislike it, you can... You can put those cotton clothes in Hao Yixuan to sell! ”

"Hao Yixuan? Isn't that one of the most expensive and popular stores in town? I rashly put all the cotton clothes in Hao Yixuan to sell, and they had to agree with their shopkeeper. Xiaoman couldn't help but smile, and the original expectation gradually fell, turning into a little helpless.

The other party looks like a child, and thinks about problems like a child. Holley's caravan has cooperated with several shops in the city, so this cotton coat is transported from Shangjing in Donglan, so it must be sold in a shop that cooperates with Holley, how can it be rashly called to Hao Yixuan?

Besides, even if Xiaoman overcomes many difficulties and this dress is really sold in Hao Yixuan, what will those stores that failed to sell it before think?

Thinking of this, Xiao Man couldn't help but shake his head and said, "He Miao, I know you are kind, but-"

"Actually... Actually, that Hao Yixuan is a shop owned by my father. He Miao interrupted suddenly, he looked up at Xiao Man's eyes, his face was flushed, his hands were tightly entangled, and the whole person was tense, looking cramped and nervous.

"What?" Xiao Manden was stunned, his face full of incredulity.

He Miao swallowed his saliva, still looking very cramped, he lowered his head slightly, and said with some embarrassment: "My father and mother run a shop together, that is, Hao Yixuan, the reason why I came to learn embroidery, in addition to my own liking, is also because they support me and want me to help the shop after I finish my studies, so... So ......"

He was still young and had always been shy, and the rest of the boys who were about his age had already taken charge of themselves, either starting a family or starting a business, in short, they were all more independent than him.

But He Miao is not naturally interested in doing business, only interested in clothes, embroidery, etc., but in the eyes of others, these are the manifestations of his sissy. Although He Miao didn't say anything on his face, he was very anxious in his heart.

Fortunately, his parents did not force him to become a different person, but encouraged him to come to the county lord's mansion to learn embroidery so that he could help the shop.

In fact, He Miao didn't want to say this, because he was afraid that Xiao Man would misunderstand that he was hiding his identity to steal embroidery, after all, Xiao Man and Hao Yixuan did not cooperate.

"I see." After listening to the cause and effect, Xiao Man nodded, looking at He Miao, who was still nervous and cramped, she couldn't help but show relief: "Don't worry, no matter what kind of person you are, no matter what kind of store you run at home, as long as you study sincerely, I will definitely do everything to teach you." ”

He Miao first raised her head in disbelief when she heard this, and then slowly eliminated the tension, and her tense body also relaxed.

Since the price of the clothes sold by Hao Yixuan and Manrou Garment Workshop is about the same, then Xiaoman can put these 300 pieces of cotton clothes in Hao Yixuan to sell this time, and if Hao Yixuan's shopkeeper agrees, all the clothes that Holley shipped from Shangjing in the future can be put into Hao Yixuan.

"In that case, then He Miao, is it convenient for you to take me to Hao Yixuan now?" Xiao Man got up and asked with a slight smile.

He Miao nodded hurriedly, "Of course you can!" My parents have wanted to see the county lord for a long time! ”

Someone was sent to prepare a carriage, and the group drove directly in the direction of Hao Yixuan in the north of the city.

On the way, He Miao wanted Xiao Man to introduce Hao Yixuan, such as the origin of the store, the guys in the store, and his parents' admiration and admiration for Xiao Man, etc., the two talked like this, and soon arrived at the door of Hao Yixuan.

At that time, it was already evening, the sun was about to set, and the sunset on the horizon was slightly pink, which was particularly beautiful.

Because he returned to a familiar place, He Miao was more lively than before, he led Xiao Man and his party to the door of Hao Yixuan, and then walked in quickly, shouting with irrepressible excitement in his tone: "Dad! Mother! Who's coming?! ”

Because it was getting late, there were no more customers in the store, only a few guys were packing up and settling accounts, so He Miao shouted like this, and everyone's eyes looked in the direction of Xiaoman at the door.

After so many eyes on herself for a while, Xiao Man's cheeks blushed a little embarrassed, and she walked into the store and smiled politely at the guys.

Soon, a man and a woman followed He Miao out of the back of the store, the man and woman looked like they were less than forty years old, and the clothes they were wearing were similar to the fabric of the robe on He Miao's body, they were all beaming, and walked straight towards Xiaoman.

"I've seen the county lord!" The two stepped forward and called out in unison, and they were about to salute when they finished speaking.

Xiao Man hurriedly helped the person up, and said embarrassedly: "You don't have to be polite, I came here to discuss with you on important matters, and I have to trouble you, don't be so polite." ”

"If the county lord has any orders, just say it, where there is no trouble." He Miao's mother said with a smile: "We have heard about the county lord for a long time, and we have always wanted to meet each other, but now that we can finally see me, we are too late to be happy, where will we refuse the county lord's request." ”

Xiao Man couldn't help but smile and said modestly: "You two are polite." ”

Saying that, He Miao's father said with a smile: "Don't hide it from the county lord, in fact, we have heard of your name long before you came to Canglan. It is said that your store in Shangjing is famous far and wide, and there are so many branches in it, my husband and wife have long wanted to meet them! I didn't expect you to take the initiative to come to the door today, and I was really surprised. ”

A long time ago, there was a person who had bought things in the Manrou Garment Workshop to Bei'an, and at that time this person described to He Miao's parents the prosperity of Shangjing, and then told them that there was a shop in Shangjing called Manrou Garment Fang, which was doing a prosperous business and the clothes were quite exquisite and novel.

At that time, this person's description made He Miao's parents very interested, and later heard that Xiaoman was about to come to Canglan, they were even more happy, always thinking about picking out time to visit, but the business in the store was busy, and they really couldn't get away, so they had to delay it again and again.

Later, when they learned that the county lord's mansion was recruiting people to learn embroidery, the parents encouraged He Miao to sign up.

After listening to the narration of the two, Xiao Man showed a smile that was the same, she thought to herself: I thought that the family that could cultivate a soft temperament like He Miao should have been dull or serious, but when I saw it today, it can be said that it broke her previous thoughts.

After some greetings, Father He finally remembered the matter: "I wonder what the county lord has to teach this time?" ”

"It's not a gift, it's just a favor for me." Xiao Man said with some embarrassment: "I brought three hundred cotton clothes from Donglan before, and I thought that I would sell them locally, but I didn't expect that after such a long time, none of the cotton clothes were sold. ”

"How come it is that none of it has been sold?" Both of them were very surprised, especially He Mu, "I heard that the business of the county lord's shop is very good, and many people are rushing to buy things in the store, presumably the clothes must be very exquisite, how can they not be sold?" ”

Speaking of this, He Miao couldn't help but stand up and explain to the two of them and explain the reason.

Father He suddenly realized and said, "Madame wants to put these three hundred cotton clothes in our shop, right?" ”

Xiao Man nodded, "That's right, let's not say that your Hao Yixuan is the most popular shop in the entire Bei'an City, and the price of our two cotton clothes is almost the same, if I put the clothes here to sell them, and then lower the price a little, I think I can dispose of these cotton clothes." ”

Let's not talk about whether we can cooperate in the future, the most important thing at the moment is to dispose of these cotton clothes.

"It's not that hard." Father He was thoughtful, raised his eyes to look at Xiao Man, and his face was embarrassed, "It's just ......"
