Chapter 74: Trying to Sell Muppet Toys

"Mrs. Zhang, do you think this is feasible?"

Lin Putou blew dry the ink and handed Mrs. Zhang two agreements signed with his name and his own seal.

Liu Xiaohe glanced at it and saw the seal at the signature office, and she nodded with satisfaction.

"Yes, thank you Lin Putou, if Lin Putou is fine, it is better to have lunch at my house at noon and then go back." It's almost noon now, and if you don't invite Lin Putou to have a meal, I'm afraid it won't be reasonable.

"No, there is still something to do in the yamen."

"Then invite Lin Putou to dinner another day." Liu Xiaohe didn't stay either.

Lin Putou responded with a smile, went out to ride a horse and left.

After Lin Putou left, Liu Xiaohe put the two signed agreements on the small table and said to Chen Keer and Li Yuerong.

"Now that's all that's left for the signatures of the two of you."

Chen Ke'er did not hesitate, but because she was illiterate, she could only press her own handprint, and as for Li Yuerong, she was worried about ten taels of silver.

"Give me ten taels of silver first, and if you don't give it to me, I won't press my handprint."

After listening to her mother's words, Chen Keer was about to go back to the room to get the only little silver left in the house, which was not enough, and he wanted to owe it first, but was stopped by Liu Xiaohe.

"It's ten taels." Liu Xiaohe directly threw a silver ingot of ten taels to Li Yuerong.

Li Yuerong took ten taels of silver, bit it with his teeth, and then went over and pressed his own handprints on the two agreements, and left after pressing his own agreement, completely forgetting about his son.

Zhang Yunsheng said that he was very convinced and reminded him loudly.

"Li Yuerong, you seem to have something you forgot to take away."

After Zhang Yunsheng finished speaking, he kicked Chen Qi and woke him up directly.

Hearing the sound of her son's chirping, Li Yuerong remembered her son and hurriedly returned to help her son up.

As a mother to do this, everyone present admired it.

Chen Qi looked at Liu Xiaohe resentfully, and he would always remember the pain in his mouth.

"Look again, your eyes will be gouged out." Liu Xiaohe said coldly.

Chen Qi didn't dare to look at it anymore, but he was still resentful in his heart, what he received today and the next day he had a chance, he would pay back this slut twice.

Li Yuerong was also afraid of Liu Xiaohe, so she pulled her son and left quickly, and she would never come here again in the future.

When the matter was resolved, Chen Keer did not feel easy, because now he owes Liu Xiaohe fifteen taels of silver.

Fifteen taels is definitely a big amount for her and Ah Can, and they have never seen so much money.

Liu Acan hugged his daughter-in-law's shoulder, gave her a sense of security, and then looked up at Liu Xiaohe.

"Xiao He, thank you, we will return the silver to you as soon as possible."

"The money is not in a hurry." Liu Xiaohe won't say anything warm, but she will prove it with her actions.

Chen Keer smiled lightly and was very grateful to Liu Xiaohe.

"I will make the puppet toys you painted for me, and when the time comes, I will pay you back as soon as I sell them."

Speaking of puppet toys, Liu Xiaohe thought of a way.

"You don't have to pay me back the money, just when I join the shares of your puppet toys, we will earn twenty-eight cents of the money when the time comes, and you will be eight and I will be two."

"It's not okay, you drew the drawings." Chen Keer felt that she had taken a big advantage, Liu Xiaohe helped her and Ah Can like this, she couldn't treat Liu Xiaohe like this, "I'm two and you're eight." ”

"That's five-five."

Liu Xiaohe changed her words, seeing that Chen Keer was still arguing, she didn't give her a chance to speak.

"If you say it again, I'll be upset."

Chen Keer no longer argued, but Liu Acan on the side played a round.

"Tu Xiaohe paints, the money is also Xiao He's yours, Ke'er does it, take four and take advantage of it, if Xiao He you don't agree, then don't agree to the matter of buying shares, our husband and wife save enough money to pay you back."

"Okay, you four and I six, then it's decided, when it's done, you come to me." After Liu Xiaohe finished speaking, he left, giving people a feeling of hot and cold.

However, after getting along these days, Chen Keer understands in her heart that Liu Xiaohe is a good person, so she doesn't have any mustard.

Liu Acan's daughter-in-law thought a lot and comforted her daughter-in-law: "Although Xiaohe is cold, he is a very good person." ”

After listening to Xianggong's words, Chen Ke'er smiled and said, "I know, you don't have to explain." ”

Liu Acan was relieved to see that her daughter-in-law understood.

A few days have passed, Chen Keer has used up all the cloth she bought back to make puppet toys, and she keeps some of the remaining corners, maybe she can still use them in the future.

That afternoon, Chen Keer put away the last stitch and couldn't wait to go to the new house.

The weather is getting colder and colder, Liu Xiaohe didn't feel cold, so he sat in the yard and drank tea, now there is no work at home, everything that should be done is done, the rest is to chop wood, this kind of work Zhang Yunsheng will definitely not let her get wet, and in the end she will be idle.

Seeing Chen Keer come in with a smile on her face, she knew that the puppet toy was ready.

"Tomorrow we can go to town and try sell Muppet toys." Chen Keer came over and told her.

Liu Xiaohe poured Chen Keer a cup of hot tea and motioned for her to sit down.

Chen Keer sat down and held the teacup she handed over, the tea was not very hot, but it was very warm in her hand.

Liu Xiaohe saw that she was thinly dressed, and wrinkled her eyebrows slightly.

"Let's go inside and talk." After saying that, he got up and walked to the living room.

When designing the house, she designed underfloor heating, so that you can feel the warmth when you enter the door.

Chen Ke'er followed her in, felt the warmth, and asked in surprise.

"How do you feel warm in the house?"

"There is underfloor heating." Liu Xiaohe closed the door, leaving only one window to make the room warmer.

Chen Keer began to be envious, and in the future, she and Ah Can will make such a house when they have money.

"As long as the Muppet thing is done, you can also make a house like this in the future." Liu Xiaohe said with a smile.

Chen Keer smiled lightly: "The cloth I bought last time has been made, six teddy bears and four Mickey Mouse." ”

"Tomorrow is the day of the market, and there will be a lot of people on the streets."

Chen Keer nodded: "Every time I rush to the market, there will be a lot of people on the street." ”

Although she hasn't been there a few times since she was a child, only three or four times, every time she goes, it's when she goes to the market, and there are indeed a lot of people on the street.

"Then I'll call you tomorrow when I leave."

Chen Ke'er nodded, the matter has been agreed, and she should go back.

"I'm going back."

"What's the hurry, you don't have anything to do when you go back, it's better to chat with me here." She is home alone, and in addition to taking care of Bao'er, reading books is quite boring.

Chen Ke'er thought that there was nothing to do at home, so she nodded and stayed to sit.

The next day, a group of four people got into a carriage and went to Fugui Town, where Zhang Yunsheng and Liu Acan went to buy the items needed for the whole winter.

Liu Xiaohe and Chen Keer went to Yibaofang, and the guys from Yibaofang looked at the door every day, and saw two young women holding a few puppet toys in their hands, their eyes were shining, and they turned around to inform the shopkeeper Zhang.

Liu Xiaohe had already seen it, but as if he hadn't seen it, he stopped when he walked to the front of Yibaofang with Chen Keer.

Xiao Jue didn't expect to meet Mrs. Zhang here, and when she saw the puppet toy in her hand, she felt novelty and came up.

"What is this, it looks like a novelty." Xiao Jue reached out and took it, and people in the past also noticed it, and they also felt novel, so they came over to take a look.

Liu Xiaohe generously gave him the teddy bear, glanced at the people who came to watch, and answered his words.

"Teddy Bear."

"What bear?" Xiao Jue asked.

"Teddy Bear." Liu Xiaohe repeated again.

Xiao Jue has never heard of a teddy bear, but this teddy bear looks and feels good, it is a new thing, and her sister must like it.

"How much does this cost?" He didn't bother with what kind of bear it was, and asked the price directly.

"You can watch it."

Hearing this, Xiao Jue looked at Mrs. Zhang and said with a smile when she saw her.

"How can you sell things like this?"

"This puppet is the first time we sell it, and we don't know what the price is, so let you look at it, see that you are also a person who has seen the world, and you should be able to give a reasonable price." The last sentence is crucial.

Xiao Jue's face is not very good-looking, this is being used, but he really likes this puppet toy, and he really wants to buy it.

In the capital, a puppet toy in Yibaofang is five or six taels, and the fabric is better than this, and it is bigger than this. Although the fabric of the puppet toy in front of him was not very good, it was novel, so he set a fair price.

"One tael of silver, do you sell it?"

Chen Ke'er listened to one or two, swallowed her saliva, and felt like she was in a dream, she poked and poked herself, frowning in pain, and then believed that this was true.

"Sell, how many do you want?" Liu Xiaohe was very calm.

Xiao Jue took the teddy bear, then looked at the Mickey Mouse in Chen Keer's hand, reached out and took one, and asked Mrs. Zhang again.

"What is this?"

"Mickey Mouse."

"Mickey Mouse?"

"Yes." Liu Xiaohe nodded.

Xiao Jue twisted his eyebrows again, feeling that the things that came out of Mrs. Zhang's mouth were actually things he had never seen before, but this Mickey Mouse was also very good-looking.

Thinking that asking again should be saying a bunch of things he didn't understand, so he didn't bother to ask.

"I'll buy one of this too." Xiao Jue said, then took out his purse and took out two taels of silver for her.

Just when the shopkeeper Zhang came over, he saw that Mrs. Zhang had already bought two puppets, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Mrs. Zhang is here."

Liu Xiaohe turned his head to see that it was the shopkeeper, and bowed his hand respectfully.

"The shopkeeper is early."

Shopkeeper Zhang smiled and nodded, but his eyes had already looked at the puppets in their hands.

Liu Xiaohe saw Shopkeeper Zhang's thoughts, and smiled and gave a teddy bear to Shopkeeper Zhang.

"This is given to the shopkeeper, and it is regarded as the cost of the shopkeeper to lend us a place to set up a stall."

Shopkeeper Zhang didn't expect him to be so generous, but he didn't accept it, but just took it and looked at it.

He touched the bear's body, looked left and right, and thought it was very good, if he used high-quality flannel, it was estimated that it would feel even better.

Suddenly, he had an idea.

"Mrs. Zhang, why don't we go into the back hall and talk."

"Yes, but Shopkeeper Zhang may have to wait, let's sell the rest of the puppet toys in our hands."

"We take it all." Shopkeeper Zhang said magnanimously.

"Doesn't Shopkeeper Zhang ask us the price we just sold?" Liu Xiaohe was curious.

"No matter how much Mrs. Zhang sells, entering my Yibaofang will definitely make it more expensive." The shopkeeper is still sure of this.

Liu Xiaohe understood in seconds, so he followed the shopkeeper Zhang in, and Chen Keer followed behind her.

Xiao Jue regretted it, he should have bought it all.
