Chapter 66: Making a living for Chen Keer

"Didn't I give you five taels of silver before?" She asked Chen Keer.

It is impossible for the two of them to run out of five taels of silver, they have not been to the market since they came here, and there is only one time when Yun Sheng goes to the town, Liu Acan asked Yun Sheng to bring back a jar of salt, and it didn't cost much.

"The money is going to be kept for after the birth of the child." Chen Keer was a little embarrassed.

"There are still six or seven months before the birth of the child, you might as well let the money make money." She said she was a little speechless, these people are wooden fish heads.

"Money begets money?" Chen Keer was stunned.

"That's right, you can't keep more money, you might as well buy cloth and cotton to make puppets to sell, so that money becomes more money."

Chen Keer understood, but she was afraid.

"What if I can't sell it?"

"If you're afraid, make ten small ones and try them in town, and then make them bigger."

Chen Ke'er thought for a long time, and then nodded: "Then listen to you, go to the town tomorrow to buy cloth and cotton." ”

"Well, I'll go with you tomorrow." She may not have been to town in a long time, but she just went shopping.

Chen Ke'er nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you." ”

"We are neighbors, and we should help each other."

Early the next morning, Zhang Yunsheng got up early to make breakfast. The warm body around him was gone, so Liu Xiaohe followed and played Tai Chi in the yard.

Nantian is now watching her practice in front of the window, and thinks that the moves are very strange, can such a soft move be lethal?

After watching it for a while, he lost interest and turned around and went back to sleep.

After a set of punches, Zhang Yunsheng also made breakfast, she didn't eat any more after eating a bowl, and turned around to feed Bao'er.

When she feeds her, Zhang Yunsheng is also full and cleaned up, as for Nantian to solve it by himself, it would be good to give him a place to rest.

"Bao'er, you take care of it, he will come back at noon, and the milk he wants to drink has been milked, add him the water in the bowl I left on the table when he drinks, don't add too much, just add a few drops." She explained to Nantian.

Nantian nodded after listening.

Looking at Nantian, who was stunned, Liu Xiaohe was a little uneasy.

"Forget it, I'd better take Bao'er with me."

"Daughter-in-law, you have to let him get used to it, so Bao'er will stay at home and let him take it." Zhang Yunsheng glanced at Nantian with a warning after speaking, if he didn't bring it well, it would be miserable.

Nantian said that he was very aggrieved, dared to be angry, and finally nodded: "I will take care of the little young master, please rest assured Mrs. Zhang." ”

After thinking for a while, she nodded: "Okay, then let you give it a try, anyway, it is your little young master, you will definitely take care of it." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was pulled away by Yun Sheng.

At the door, next to the carriage stood Liu Acan and Chen Keer.

Chen Ke'er saw that they didn't hug Bao'er together, and asked.

"Aren't you bringing Bao'er with you?"

"Bao'er has someone to take you, let's go." With that, she got into the carriage first, and Chen Ke'er followed behind.

Hearing her say that Bao'er was brought by someone, Chen Ke'er had doubts in her heart, thinking that Xiao He and her family loved Bao'er, how could they leave Bao'er at home alone, so she didn't think much about it.

At this time, it is already dawn, and everyone doesn't sell anything, so there is no need to go so early.

When I arrived in the town, the sun was high and it was very comfortable to get sunburned.

It's still the old rule, they get off at the entrance of the town, and then Yun Sheng stores the carriage in a shed that specializes in storing ox carts and carriages, and there are special people to serve the two copper coins.

"Let's go shopping first or go to the cloth shop first." Zhang Yunsheng asked his daughter-in-law.

"Let's go to the cloth shop first." Don't estimate Chen Keer's uneasiness.

The four of them went to the cloth workshop together, but it was not the one where they used to buy cloth and clothes, but the most famous Yibaofang in Fugui Town.

Yibaofang is a large cloth workshop with shops all over the country and a good reputation.

At the door of Yibaofang, Chen Keren stood at the door and was reluctant to go in.

"Xiao He, let's go to another house, this thing is very expensive, we can't afford it."

"Let's go in and have a look." said that Chen Keer could not refuse, and stepped into the gate of Yibaofang. Zhang Yunsheng followed behind, and Liu Acan was the same as Chen Keer, but they all went in, and he could only follow up.

When they entered the door, they came to receive them, glanced at their clothes, and still kept a smile on their faces, which Liu Xiaohe was very satisfied with, and it was worthy of being the world-famous Yibaofang.

"What do you need?" Dude asked.

"Do you have any of that fluffy cloth here?" She glanced at it, and there was no shaggy cloth on the table.

The guy heard that she asked for that kind of fluffy cloth, smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's just that it hasn't arrived yet, it is estimated that it will take a while, if Madame is not in a hurry, you can take a look casually." ”

"In that case, then we'll wait a while." After Liu Xiaohe finished speaking, a bright carriage stopped at the door, and the carriage was full of boxes.

The guy immediately laughed when he saw it and told Liu Xiaohe.

"It's already here, ma'am."

After the guy finished speaking, he went over to move the goods, Liu Xiaohe and a few people stood aside, and at this time there was no one else in Yibaofang, just the four of them.

After a while, the guy came, holding a fluffy cloth in his hand.

"That's what Madame wants?"

Looking at the cloth that the guy brought over, although it was different from the cloth of modern bear dolls, it felt good to the touch, and it could be replaced, so he nodded.

"That's it, I don't know how to sell this?"

"Twenty cents a foot."

When Chen Keren heard that it was so expensive, he pulled Liu Xiaohe's sleeve and shook his head.

Liu Xiaohe held Chen Keren's hand and said: "You can make two small feet, just pull three feet, it's only sixty yuan, and you can sell one ...... when the time comes."

Speaking of this, Liu Xiaohe stopped, looked at the tiger puppet doll placed not far away, and asked the man.

"How do you sell that tiger puppet?"

"One tael of silver." The guy was very curious about what the lady had just said, and suddenly the guy had a bold idea, if this kind of fluffy cloth was used to make a tiger, wouldn't it be more appropriate?

Liu Xiaohe saw the changes in the man's eyes, did not say a word, and turned his head to Chen Kedao: "When the time comes, what you make should be almost half the size of that puppet, we will sell five hundred copper coins, and you will make money except for the capital." ”

"Can you really sell it for five hundred copper coins?"

"Is Madame going to be a puppet to sell?" Dude asked.

"Yes." Liu Xiaohe smiled and nodded.

"As long as the lady's stitching is good and the appearance is good, we can accept it in Yibaofang." The guy smiled, this lady is right, this kind of puppet toys are something that makes a lot of money, but it's not easy to sell, but the efficiency of their Yibaofang selling things is still okay, so I'm not afraid that they won't be able to sell it.

"How are you going to do that?" She looked at this guy and looked like a man, could he be the steward of this shop?

"If it's that kind of tiger puppet, we'll take a hundred dollars."

"A hundred pennies?" Liu Xiaohe laughed and didn't say that your shop was black-hearted, "What we do is not a tiger puppet." ”

"What's that?" The dude is curious.

Liu Xiaohe smiled mysteriously and said to the guy: "We will keep this secret for the time being, and when we make it, we will try to sell it first, and then your fang will take a fancy to it, we are talking about business, how about it?" ”

The man also laughed at this time, from the moment this lady entered the door, he felt unusual, now it seems that his vision is not wrong, it is really unusual, so he nodded.

"According to my wife's meaning, I am the manager of this shop, surnamed Zhang."

"What a coincidence, my father-in-law is also surnamed Zhang, so I will call you Shopkeeper Zhang from now on."

Shopkeeper Zhang didn't expect that he had the same surname as this lady's husband, smiled and nodded, and then pointed to the flannel cloth and said, "Then how much does this lady cloth want?" ”

"Three feet." This was said by Chen Keer, and she had already figured it out.

If she keeps being so timid, she is afraid that she will not be able to do anything, and she believes in Xiaoke, so this time she plans to give it a try, if she can really make money, then she will not worry about it in the future.

"Pull another foot of pink cloth, and two feet of black, light yellow at a time, and two catties of ordinary cotton." Liu Xiaohe said what he needed to be Mickey Mouse in one breath.

Shopkeeper Zhang knew that they were using it to make puppets, so he didn't recommend expensive cloth, so he recommended a one that was comfortable and inexpensive to the touch, and the price was very fair, so Chen Keer didn't say anything.

"This is what the two ladies wanted." Shopkeeper Zhang packed the things out, and Liu Acan stretched out his hand to carry them.

"Thank you, shopkeeper."

"Thank you, I don't need it, I just want to think if Mrs. can sell the puppets at the door of our Yibaofang."

Liu Xiaohe was surprised, he didn't expect Shopkeeper Zhang to be like this, but this was exactly what she wanted, so he nodded and agreed.

"Yes, as long as the shopkeeper is not afraid that I will steal the business." Generally, the shop does not allow peers to set up stalls in front of their own stores to sell things, she didn't expect this shopkeeper to do this, it seems that this shopkeeper is a good person, like doing big things.

But think about it, the shopkeeper Zhang is only in his twenties, and he became the shopkeeper at such a young age, how can he sit in the position of the shopkeeper without any ability.

When I came out of Yibaofang, I went shopping on the street,

At this time, there were more and more people on the street, and Chen Keren rarely came to the town, and after a while, he looked like a child, look here and there. Liu Acan followed nervously, for fear that she would bump into it.

"Kerr, slow down."

"Kerr, be careful."

......

Listening to Liu Acan's reminders one by one, Liu Xiaohe couldn't help laughing and looked sideways at Zhang Yunsheng beside him.

"This guy compares to you."

"You're more obedient than she is." The 'she' in Zhang Yunsheng's mouth refers to Chen Keer, if his daughter-in-law Chen Keer is the same, he will be the same as Liu Acan.

After listening to Zhang Yunsheng's words, she glanced at Zhang Yunsheng, turned her head to look ahead, and saw Chen Ke'er walking towards a place surrounded by a bunch of people not far ahead, followed by Liu Acan.

"What happened, why are there so many people?" She asked.

"Let's see." Zhang Yunsheng saw that his daughter-in-law was really gone, and his brows immediately wrinkled, and suddenly Liu Acan possessed her and chased after her to protect her.

Seeing this, Liu Xiaohe laughed, and she was also very careful not to collide with others.
