Chapter Eighty-Six: In the Silk Shop, Everyone Was Surprised
Jin Ran bowed slightly: "It's hard to prepare so much for you." There are a lot of customers these days, which really keeps you busy for a few days, and when the store is not busy, I will make up for you for a few days. When the time comes, we will also book some banquets from the Fuman Restaurant to treat you well. Jin Ran said curiously: "Girl, do you take out these silk satins to hinder the business of the store?" β
The girl smiled and said: "Don't worry, county lord, although the store is a little out of stock now, but now it is an appointment system, as long as you make an appointment the day before, we will definitely be able to prepare the satin the next day." When the ladies and ladies arrived, they took a closer look at the satin they had prepared, and let them take it away. When someone doesn't want to go out, we can send them the work in our store. β
This reservation system is not Jinran came up with, but the owner of the Fuman Restaurant, Fu Manniang, originally implemented a measure in his own restaurant, if those drinkers book in the store one day in advance, and come to eat the next day or later, the restaurant will be prepared in advance, and then directly take the booked drinkers to the designated seat to eat, and also avoid the situation that there are no dishes they want at that time.
Jin Ran said gently: "It's really not enough, you go and urge the people in the workshop, let them hurry up, just drive these out first, and save you embarrassment." β
A maid smiled and said: "County Lord, don't worry, the ladies who come to our store are all very good-natured, even if there is a shortage of goods for a while, they are not in a hurry, let's make up for it quickly." β
Jin Ran is also a business of buying cloth to inspect his own shop, so it seems that this business is really good. The family background of the people who come to the draft is naturally the family of the eunuch, even if the money in their hands is sometimes not very handy, they are willing to grit their teeth and buy some good satin and silk clothes for the show girls at home, and the things in Jinran's store are also very cheap, and ordinary people can afford it, so Jinran's business has also attracted many people because of its high quality and low price.
The things brought to Miss Zhang's family are naturally good, royal blue, pine green silk silky smooth like water, drape is very strong, and it is also very skin-friendly, wrapped in the body almost makes people feel nothing, Jin Ran carefully picked up a light blue like the blue sky of the blue shadow yarn, the dyes of this yarn are extracted from herbs, the color is light and classical, a whole horse is spread out on the table, the table seems to be covered with a layer of lake water, the light blue lake water flows down the table to the ground, blue and bright, so that the ladies are happy to see it.
Zhang Yan carefully compared the blue shadow yarn to her body, and her tone was ten out of ten envy: "This ...... Isn't this the blue shadow yarn of Suzhou tie-dye? She sighed: "I have heard the beauty of the blue shadow yarn for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to see it, and today I have been stained with the light of the county lord of Jinrui, and I have a good look at this priceless blue shadow yarn." β
She glanced at Jin Ran embarrassedly: "My family rarely rewards the things given by the emperor, this blue shadow yarn is very precious, one hundred and ten yarn horses can get a successful blue shadow yarn out, our family does not want to buy a horse to make a few clothes, but the original price of this thing is not expensive, let those silk merchants fry, my family can't afford it anyway." β
Jin Ran smiled: "You are still talking about the blue shadow yarn in the past, and the current blue shadow yarn is no longer what you imagined." β
Zhang Yan listened to Jinran's answer before she realized that the person in front of her was also a big silk merchant, this Jinran is also a person who owns a lot of shops, and I don't know how many silk and satin shops there are, and I have offended Jinran a little by what she said, so this Zhang Yan hurriedly opened her mouth and said: "Hey, Lord Jinrui, I don't mean that the price of this blue shadow yarn is fried by a silk merchant, this blue shadow yarn is originally very small, and it is reasonable for the price to be higher." β
Jin Ran didn't care about Zhang Yan's words just now, she hadn't been careful enough to this extent, but for what Zhang Yan just said, Jin Ran made a few additions: "It's okay Yan'er, you don't have to worry, what you said is also the truth, this blue shadow yarn is indeed difficult to dye, this yarn is actually just ordinary, mainly because of the color it dyes, which is very difficult to match, and tie-dyeing in the previous dynasty, the process has been incomplete, so those silk merchants who have the method in their hands are eager to set the price higher than the sky." β
Zhang Yan nodded sympathetically, she had also seen this blue shadow yarn in the silk shop in Jinling, to be honest, those blue shadow yarns did not feel very good to the touch, and with a gentle pressure on the hand, people could feel the stiff touch of those yarns, presumably after waiting for a long time, they could even press out the red marks all over the body.
But...... Zhang Yan curiously touched the blue shadow yarn in Jinran's shop, and she said in surprise: "Hey, Lord Jinrui, this ...... Your blue shadow yarn here is so soft and comfortable to the touch, not rough at all! Jin Ran smiled and said: "You finally saw the idea, the Biying yarn in our shop is different from the yarn used in the Biying yarn in other shops!" We used a pineapple tent, which is better than the Jiuyang yarn used before the original blue shadow yarn dyeing. Andβ"
Jin Ran said that she usually sold a pass, and Zhang Qi, who had been listening to her on the anxious side, couldn't help but reach out and push her: "Okay, Ran'er, don't sell Guanzi, if you sell Guanzi again, our Zhang Yan is going to die in a hurry!" Zhang Qi said as he pointed to Zhang Yan, who was in a hurry beside Jin Ran.
Zhang Yan also cooperated to show a pitiful face, this time even Zhang Zi was honest, did not say some cynical words on the side, but obediently stood aside to pick up the silk, although she did not come over in the face, but secretly pricked up her ears to listen.
Jin Ran saw that everyone's attention was focused on him, so he pretended to be mysterious and continued: "Guess, I use a good material of Biying Yarn, how much silver does a horse need?" β
Zhang Yan was the first to reply: "Lord Jinrui, aren't you asking in vain? We all know that this is not a very good blue shadow yarn with Jiuyang yarn, just one horse, that one horse is not as much as your store, just one horse costs one hundred and eighty taels of silver, and when the market is good, it is sold to as much as two hundred taels. β
What Zhang Yan said is very accurate, and she is obviously very clear about the market price.
Jin Ran smiled and said to her: "As far as your speed is the fastest, I think you also like this blue shadow yarn very much on weekdays, otherwise how could you answer it all at once?" β
Zhang Yan smiled slightly: "Isn't it?" I love the color of this blue shadow yarn the most, so I inevitably pay more attention to it. Lord Jinrui, you have a blue shadow yarn here, so many big horses, it is rare that the fabric is soft and soft, and the dyeing is also very good-looking, without a single flaw, this bundle of yarn is worth five hundred taels of silver, to say the least, right? β
This price is set to the point, because Jin Ran's one blue shadow yarn, not to mention there must be two blue shadow yarns from other shops, so five hundred taels is not expensive.
Jin Ran shook her head mysteriously, and she lowered her voice: "No, it's not right. My horse of Biying Yarn was sold for five taels of silver, and it was just one of a hundred. β
"Five taels of silver? Five taels of silver and a blue shadow yarn? Jinran, are you crazy? The first to speak was Zhang Qi, who had been silent and demure, she screamed in surprise, ruining the lady's demeanor for the first time, but then, Zhang Qi calmed down, and she shook her head at Jinran disapprovingly: "Ran'er, you don't want to sell us such a good Biying yarn at such a low price, right?" Zhang Qi's eyes were firm: "Ran'er, I know your good intentions, but you bought us so much jewelry before, not to mention, now if you even want to take a dress and a skirt from yours, what does it mean for us ladies of the Zhang family to be in front of yours?" β
Zhang Yan also followed up to help: "Yes, Lord Jinrui, if you give us a few taels of cloth tie or something, we can still accept it without any worries, and we won't worry about anything, but this blue shadow yarn is too expensive, and we will definitely not want this for nothing." β
Jin Ran really made the two of them cry and laugh, she bent over with laughter, and even squeezed out tears with laughter, Jin Ran didn't expect that her truth was thought by everyone to give them the cloth for nothing, Jin Ran cried and laughed: "I really don't know what you guys are thinking, I'm telling the truth!" Tell me, what did I lie to you? The price of these cloth satins is the same for you and the price for the outside, including this blue shadow veil! Think about it, if I give it to our family for nothing, will I still give it to the noble girl in Kyoto? β
Zhang Qi sent the girl around her to the store suspiciously, she seemed to want the girl to go to the store to inquire about the true price of Biying Yarn, and to inquire whether Jin Ran was blinding her.
This girl's hands and feet are very fast, and after a while, the news came out, this girl stood in the middle of the room, and said crisply: "If you want to destroy the eldest lady, I have just asked, including the ladies and ladies who came to the store, everyone said that this blue shadow yarn is five taels of silver a horse!" β
Now it's really hard for Zhang Qi to believe it, if Jin Ran buys the little two people in his own store, let them all speak in unison, the key is that this girl not only asked the guys who served in the store, but also asked the young lady and wife in the store, most of these people who came to the store to buy jewelry were noble families, and they would not collude with Jinran to deceive them anyway.
Therefore, this blue shadow yarn is actually five taels of silver a horse, and the blue shadow yarn sold by other stores is a hundred times the price of Jinran's blue shadow yarn.
