Chapter 50: Buying Fabric

The days passed day by day, and soon it was Gu Chengyu's Mu Xiu Day.

Early in the morning, Daddy Gu, Gu Chengli, and Gu Chengyi were divided into two ways. Gu Chengyu followed Father Gu to the town to welcome guests, while Gu Chengli and the others took the honeysuckle to the county seat.

Originally, there was not much honeysuckle this time, so Father Gu thought about selling it directly to Renhetang in the town, but thinking that Gu Chengchi's leg was almost better, and the scar removal cream could also be used, he had to let the eldest and second take the honeysuckle to the county seat.

In fact, Gu Chengyu has been adding a small amount of spiritual spring water to Gu Chengchi's medicine, and Gu Chengchi's scald recovery is very good. It's just that Gu Chengyu didn't dare to add more, so there was still a little scar on the skin of his thigh, Li Langzhong was surprised when he saw it, how could his medicinal effect be so good? It is also said that you only need to buy a bottle of scar cream.

The honeysuckle picked this time was not as much as the last time, only twenty-five catties, the Gu family left five catties for Li Langzhong, and the others were all asked to take them with the boss and go to the county seat. The silver from the honeysuckle sale can also buy a box of scar removal cream!

At this time, Gu Chengyu and Gu Lao Dad sold the dried fungus to the shopkeeper Liang, a total of thirteen catties and six taels, and got fifty-four taels of silver. was told by the shopkeeper Liang that the restaurant was full of seats with these three dishes in the past few days, so the Gu family hurried to dry more dried fungus, it seems that they have tasted the sweetness, at this time Gu Chengyu does not know how much silver a plate of cold fungus was sold by the shopkeeper Liang, otherwise he will definitely grit his teeth and scold the profiteer.

Coming out of the restaurant, Father Gu planned to go directly to Craftsman Sun. Today, Father Gu has made an appointment with the craftsmen, and today he will take them to see the terrain and estimate how many materials they need.

Originally, Gu Chengyu didn't need to follow him, but Gu Chengyu wanted to go to Tang Ji Buzhuang. The last time I saw the cloth in Tang Ji Cloth Village, it was just that the time was in a hurry, and he didn't have time to choose, he wanted to buy some cloth for the family, a big family, only he wore muslin, he was a little embarrassed, even his father didn't have decent clothes when he went out, this is not good, people rely on clothes, poor wear, and go out with less confidence.

"Daddy! Let's go to Tang Ji Buzhuang! ”

"What are you doing in Buzhuang? Do you want to go and see Shopkeeper Zhou? Father Gu was a little puzzled.

"You'll find out when you go!" Gu Chengyu wouldn't say that he was going to buy cloth, otherwise his father would definitely not go.

The two drove an ox cart, and halfway through, Gu Chengyu bought two packs of peach blossom cakes at the pastry shop. Last time, everyone gave jade pendants, and this time they can't lose their manners when they come to the door again, although people may not look down on such pastries, it can only be a courtesy and family affection. The two arrived at Buzhuang and parked the ox cart directly at the place where the oxen were tied last time.

Gu Chengyu and the others entered the shop, and a familiar guy greeted them. "Huh? Is that you? But do you want to find Shopkeeper Zhou? It's unfortunate today, Shopkeeper Zhou went to the county seat to replenish the goods, and he was not in the shop. "The goods of their Tangji Buzhuang are all replenished in the county town and then transported by ships on the wharf, so Buzhuang often needs guys to carry goods at the wharf.

"Little brother has a good memory!" Daddy Gu doesn't know what his son is here for, this kid has always had an idea, and he won't come here anyway.

"That's not a coincidence! These two packs of pastries are for Shopkeeper Zhou, since he is not here, please wait for him to come back and then hand them over. Gu Chengyu handed the pastry wrapped in his hand to the guy.

"Actually, in addition to visiting Zhou's shopkeeper today, we also want to buy some materials to make clothes, and I don't know if the little brother has any more affordable materials, so let's introduce them?"

When the fellow heard that he had come to do business, he immediately rejoiced.

"Uncle and little brother, don't worry, our Tang Ji has always been a child, you look first, which horse you like, I will cut it for you." The guy put the pastry in his hand and followed Gu Chengyu and them, ready to introduce them at any time.

"Little treasure! Why did you buy cloth? You have clothes to wear at home, so you don't have to buy them! "Daddy Gu didn't expect Xiaobao to buy cloth, during this time, there are many places to spend money at home, and they all spend a lot of money, so you can save it!

"Daddy! Our family is having a better life, and it's not bad for this money. When you and your eldest brother go out, they always wear decent clothes; What's more, they haven't bought new clothes for years; Da Lang's clothes are all short, and the rest of the small ones are not wearing new ones, they are all picking up big clothes and changing them, so I will buy them two today. I can spend money and earn money, so don't worry. ”

Father Gu listened to Gu Chengyu's words, and thought that the Lu family had followed him for so many years, and he hadn't worn a few new clothes, even if he was reluctant to buy them during the New Year, he wouldn't have to buy them! The family has recently earned more money, which also makes the big guys happy.

Gu Chengyu browsed the colors on the shelf, thinking that men always have these two colors, and there is nothing to pick, unless it is satin, there are many colors of satin, and there are patterns and dark patterns. Gu Chengyu chose azure and light gray for the young men in the family, stone blue for Gu's father, and autumn fragrance for Lu's family; The girls in the family are all pink, only the second sister chose lotus lotus, after all, the second sister is the elder of the eldest girl, and it is unreasonable to dress the same as several nieces; But thinking that the women in the family made it difficult again, the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law were not up to age, and the purchase was deep and old-fashioned, and the purchase was shallow and not in line with the age. In the end, Gu Chengyu fell in love with a snow-blue material, and thought about pulling a muslin cloth for the two sisters-in-law, and the coarse cloth was also selected to be a little darker than this, so that it could be regarded as a good color.

Gu Chengyu didn't take a closer look, although he didn't refuse to buy fabrics, but now he was dressed as a male baby, and he was a little bean ding, which was inevitably a little awkward in the eyes of outsiders. He decided to bring the woman of the family next time, and whoever bought it was more experienced than him.

I chose the fine cotton cloth, and also chose the coarse cloth of the same color, the Gu family is a farmer, rough work is indispensable, the cotton cloth is not wear-resistant, or the coarse cloth is durable.

"That's it! Xiaobao! What are you buying so much for? That's a lot of money! When Father Gu saw that Gu Chengyu had chosen so much, he immediately felt pain. He forgot that this baby can earn money, and he can spend it indiscriminately, and he bought so much after a while.

"Daddy! If you have to buy it anyway, don't you have to buy everything in the family? Rulers or something, you have a number, you calculate, how many feet do you want to buy? "Gu Chengyu doesn't know anything about the size of clothes made in ancient times, in his previous life, there were ready-made clothes for sale, who would buy cloth to make clothes?

"I didn't count that!" Daddy Gu patted his head, this kind of thing is done by women, he is a man, how can he know this?

"Uncle, don't forget me! I know! Tell me, how many people are in the family? I'll do the math for you. ”

It's rare for a guy to meet such a big customer, although he buys muslin, but the silk is easy to sell, isn't it? Those are all worn by big families, who can afford to buy them? Big families can't buy materials twice in three days! Therefore, the most sold in the shop are coarse cloth and cotton cloth.

Gu Chengyu pondered for a while, "How much silver is your coarse cloth and muslin cloth?" ”

"The coarse cloth is 350 wen a horse, and the muslin cloth is 800 wen a horse, and you and our shopkeeper are also old acquaintances, if you buy more, I will give you less. However, it can only be a little less, and you know, I am just a fellow, and I can't be a master. ”

Gu Chengyu knew that the guys knew that they had some friendship with Shopkeeper Zhou, so they shouldn't be expensive to sell them, so there was no need for a counteroffer.

"Then you ask me for one piece of azure muslin, one piece of light gray coarse cloth, one horse of pink coarse cloth and muslin, and you can cut the ruler for me for the rest!"
