Chapter 14: Finding the Treasure

A young man, carrying a bundle of cloth behind his back and a rattle in his hand, walked from house to house, shouting a long cry: "Sell cloth!" Sell cloth! Cotton, flower cloth, fine silk cloth! Make clothes, quilt covers, and shoes! The eldest aunt, the little daughter-in-law, and the clever girl came to take a look! ”

Ye Xiaoman trotted over, with a pleasing smile on his white and tender face.

"Do you want to pick up the cloth from Brother Blang?"

The Bulang also replied to her with a smile: "Accept it, the little girl wants to help the family sell cloth?" ”

Ye Xiaoman nodded and led him home.

On the way, she asked Bu Lang: "The first time I sold cloth, please ask what is the price of white linen?" What is the price of other colors of cloth? ”

Seeing that she was not very old, but she spoke very well, looked cute, and treated people very politely, he replied to her in a good voice: "My owner is the largest cloth village in the town, and the price of cloth is the highest in ten miles and eight villages, and the ordinary white linen cloth is two cents and one foot, and the colored ones should be seen in the color and pattern, and if the pattern is good, there are also twenty wen and one foot; If the pattern is not good, five or six wen a foot at most. ”

Ye Xiaoman thanked her, she knew that the reputation was very good. The indigo blue cloth she dyed is not in bad condition, and it should be able to sell for a good price.

led the pick-up to the backyard, and Ye Xiaoman pointed to the half-dried fabric on the shelf.

"My brother is well-informed, and I asked my brother to pass by."

Who doesn't like to listen to flattery, took Bulang with a smile and went forward to look at Cloth.

The color of this blue cloth is very positive, but the blue is a little lighter, like a touch cut from the sky, probably because it was dyed for a relatively short time. Although the color is light, the one-foot cloth is dyed very evenly, and the color is very good.

He touched the dried place of the cloth with his fingers, so that it would not fade, and asked closely, the cloth had a slight medicinal fragrance.

It turned out to be a medicinal dyed cloth, but I don't know what kind of dye it is, but it should be blue.

Hey, there are people in such a small village who can dye cloth with blue, and he thought that only the big dyeing workshop in the town knew about it.

Thinking about the high price of the blue cloth in the dyeing workshop, he was secretly happy in his heart, and felt that he had picked up a treasure.

"Not bad." He commented: "It's a pity that it's not dry yet, it's wet, and I can't buy it." ”

As long as he is willing to buy it, Ye Xiaoman put his mind at ease and said to him: "My brother is a cool person, and I will tell my brother the truth, in addition to this kind of blue cloth, my family will also dye many colors and patterns." And dyeing it at home, it takes a lot of effort, and the color and pattern dyed out must be the best. If my brother takes a fancy to it, you might as well talk to your host, and let's sit down and talk slowly. If the negotiation is completed, I will definitely thank my brother. ”

Hearing her tone, Jie Bulang smiled and said: "The little girl is quite able to say, and it's not impossible to do this, but you still have to be the master of your family." ”

Seeing that he didn't refuse, Ye Xiaoman's heart was even happier when he heard the words: "The adults in my family are busy in the field, you wait a minute, I'll call them back." ”

"Oh, I still have something to do, so why wait." Pick up the cloth and wave his hand, he still has the cloth to send.

Seeing this, although Ye Xiaoman was anxious in his heart, he still said with a smile on his face: "Then let's talk about it another day." ”

As the saying goes, it's not the business that catches up, and she must not be impatient.

Sure enough, as soon as she said this, she hesitated. I finally picked up the treasure, what if someone else took the lead.

"Otherwise, you cut a piece of this for me and take it back, show it to our owner, if it's okay, I'll come to you tomorrow."
