Chapter 44: Every inch of cloth is golden

Gu Qingyi delayed some efforts when they went down the mountain, and it was not early for them to enter the city, and the bustling street market was full of people, and the shouting and shouting were endless, as lively and prosperous as ever.

After staying in the deserted nunnery for a long time, Gu Qingyi only felt a heat wave coming to her face, and she felt like a world away, her hand was tightly grasped by Li Niangzi, and she walked through the fireworks in the world, until she entered a cloth village, and then she came back to her senses.

This time, Mrs. Li went down the mountain to sell needlework, because she came every month, she and the shopkeeper of the cloth village had already been acquainted, and there was no need to bargain for a month's embroidery, and she also cut a linen, planning to go back to make a dress.

Gu Qingyi took out the handkerchief in his sleeve, "Shopkeeper, I don't know how much my handkerchief is worth?" ”

The shopkeeper was dialing the abacus, and glanced at it indifferently, embroidered with the red plum of the magpie climbing the branch, which was quite a bit of artistic conception, and said casually, "Always money." ”

"Shopkeeper, take a closer look." Gu Qingyi was a little puzzled, the palace embroidered every inch of cloth and every inch of gold, although she only embroidered a handkerchief, it was not only worth the same money.

"Little lady, it's just a handkerchief, if you go elsewhere, I'm afraid you won't even have the usual money." The shopkeeper frowned, looked a little impatient, and waved his hand, "If the little lady doesn't sell it, let's leave, there are many handkerchiefs in our store, and there is no shortage of you." ”

"Shopkeeper Zhou, don't be angry, who doesn't know that your Splendid Pavilion's business is the fairest, so naturally it will not lower the price. It's just that my sister's handkerchief needle is really exquisite, or you can take a look at it again, can you increase the price. ”

Gu Qingyi has never bought or sold things in person, let alone bargained, just one sentence was already the limit, and when the shopkeeper Zhou began to drive people away, he was already blushing, pinching the handkerchief and about to leave, or Li Niangzi grabbed her hand, gave her a look, and personally helped her around.

After all, it was an old customer, Shopkeeper Zhou put down the abacus in his hand with face, looked at the handkerchief that was put back on the desk by Mrs. Li, and immediately put away the carelessness on his face, revealing a touch of surprise, "It's actually palace embroidery?" Little lady, how do you know how to embroider in the palace? ”

Because she ran out of the nunnery, Gu Qingyi was dressed in a very low-key manner, dressed in an inconspicuous plain blue dress, her black black hair was tied up by a brown saro soft towel, the powder was not applied, and her face was facing the sky, if she didn't look closely at her facial features, she would be an ordinary village girl.

Shopkeeper Zhou noticed that this little lady was beautiful, well-mannered, and lively, but why did everyone come out to sell needlework? Not to mention that palace embroidery is not something that ordinary people can learn.

Gu Qingyi's expression was faint, "Shopkeeper Zhou wants to investigate the identity of the embroidery girl when he buys a handkerchief?" Well, I'm not going to sell it. ”

"Don't, little lady, I'm offended, don't be angry." Shopkeeper Zhou smiled awkwardly, pressed the handkerchief, and stretched out a finger, "I'll give you this number, what do you think?" ”

"A tael of silver?" Mrs. Li said in surprise.

Gu Qingyi didn't speak, Shopkeeper Zhou knew that he didn't fool her, this little lady knew some about the market, and hurriedly smiled, "No, it's ten taels." ”

Mrs. Li gasped, "Ten taels? A handkerchief is ten taels? ”

She only sells for five taels of silver for a month's embroidery work, and this small handkerchief is actually worth ten taels, whether this is real gold or silver.
