At night, Hua Rong Yunshang reported the progress to Qianshu.

Yunshang said that after telling Liu's mother that the eldest lady was in a hurry to use the money, Liu's mother reported that Mrs. Liu's wife had to buy a house, and she could give her more than 200 taels when she dropped some jewelry.

Hua Rong and Zhu Xiang also went to the East and West pawnshops twice, and found that two pairs of jade bracelets were worth 1,000 taels; The two jade brands are worth 500 taels because they are made by famous artists, followed by gold medals, which deserve 400 taels, and the rest of the gold earrings, jade rings, bead chains, etc. can get a total of 200 taels.

After some calculation, it was still 900 taels short of the target of 3,300 taels.

Qianshu frowned, she didn't expect these things to be worth so much money, she was very satisfied; Second, I'm a little worried, what if the nine hundred taels can't be scraped together.

"Hua Rong, that blood jade will definitely come out tomorrow. Come with your ears and I'll teach you something. ”

She made two preparations, tomorrow to see how much silver this blood jade can be worth, if it is not enough, she will go to ask He Jue to borrow it. As the darling of the Jin Palace, how could he have some valuable things on him. If he is willing to borrow it, she will give him more when the business starts in the future.

Hua Rong wanted to interrupt her master's words several times, but looking at the master's determined look, she knew that she was afraid that she would not be able to keep it. I have to sigh that some people have no fate.

Qianshu was also sleepy after explaining, turned over and fell asleep. Ming'er is the first day she is shopping, I'm afraid there will be some trouble. After all, this errand is the same as fat pork, everyone is staring at it.

However, she also thought about it and would not interfere too much. After all, where are there no unspoken rules? She's just trying to get out of the house for the convenience of going out.

In the middle of the night, someone in Lang Yuexuan still had no intention of sleeping.

When the woman asked, he asked Chaoyu again after finishing his own home, and Chaoyu couldn't figure out what this meant.

However, he always felt that those words were wrong, very wrong.

He Dongfeng put his hands on the back of his head, and everything his eyes touched was pitch black, but in this darkness, the woman's face became clearer and clearer in front of his eyes.

First she was whipped, then she was wounded by a sword, and she was indeed unlucky. However, it was Shen Qian who saved her every time.

Thinking of this, He Dongfeng was a little depressed. Shen Qian has been married for a year, hasn't he given up on that woman? I've met twice since I came back, but what about after that?

What the hell did the woman think? Do people really get this fast? Obviously, he blushed with shame when he saw him before, but now that he hasn't taken the book, he thinks Shen Qian is better than him?

What you like may quickly turn into dislike, but what you don't like becomes like, and it won't be very responsive?

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration.

Yes, what the woman said, he understood. It is ironic that he was cold and ruthless to her before, and now he is repeatedly involved with her, which is what it means to spit it out and eat it back.

And she originally liked to eat, but she slowly quit because she was not in good health, implying that she was so happy with him in the past, but she was hurt a lot by him, and she was able to quit liking him slowly.

He Dongfeng's heart was suffocated, and there was a slight numb pain overflowing, saying that it was uncomfortable, not to; Let's say it's not uncomfortable, but it's panicked.

A tossing out of bed, he quietly patronized the next room again.

The woman was sleeping soundly, and she didn't know what she dreamed of, the corners of her mouth were bent, and she murmured: "It's so good!" ”

He Dongfeng reached out and stroked her face, the touch was smooth. But how on earth did he ignore her before? In terms of appearance, she is not inferior to any woman in his house; In terms of talent, Yanjing is also famous, especially the dance skills, which can be called the first dance in the capital, but he can't see it.

Withdrawing his hand, he was stunned for a long time before he left lightly.

When Qianshu got up the next day, he went to look for the other maid who had been bought. The maid heard that she was a relative of a concubine, and she was a little arrogant because she had been doing this shopping errand for a long time.

But Qianshu didn't mind at all, but put on an open mind to ask for advice.

The maid told her to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables at the beginning, and Qianshu naturally agreed happily. She also happened to go to learn about the meat and vegetable market, otherwise how would she do business in the future?

With a basket in hand, she went out the back door.

In fact, she took the road on the left and soon arrived at the vegetable market, but she wanted to see the shop. So he took a detour and came to the shop.

Thinking that this shop will be his own soon, I am looking forward to it for a while. That's a lot more than she could have looked forward to opening a restaurant in modern times. Maybe because she has been a little bitter through it, and there are so few women in this era, she has put all her sustenance on this shop.

It's all over again.

Qianshu silently planned to change the name of the shop first, make some small advertisements and the like, be sure to fire the first shot, and there will be no business in the future.

I went to the vegetable market and compared the stalls little by little, and after a round of shopping, I finally picked out the dishes.

The first thing she did when she returned to the palace was to find Hua Rong and ask how much silver the basket could be used for.

Hua Rong had just come back from outside, and after bumping into her master, she panted and said, "Lord, master, it's done!" ”

"What do you say? It's done?! Qianshu was surprised and delighted. You must know that although the blood jade is rare, it is not easy to sell it for more than its own price.

She taught Hua Rong and made up a story, saying that the legend of this blood jade dragon is owned by the Nine Heavens Goddess of the Western Regions, and the dragon condenses the essence of the sun and the moon, coupled with the care of the Nine Heavens Goddess, and finally the blood has spirituality, and it is the same color as blood. Legend has it that whoever owns this basket will have a smooth life.

Qianshu also taught Hua Rong to say to those pawnshops that if this basket is obtained by a woman, she will absorb the aura of the basket over time, look like a fairy, and be able to marry her beloved. If it is obtained by men, Wen Taowu is strategic, and young heroes are not a problem, and they should be strong when they are old.

Hua Rong said in the end, and she blushed: "The shopkeeper of the pawnshop on West Street looked and looked, and finally he could give the slave and maid eight hundred taels, and the slave and maid went out without saying a word." After walking not far away, the shopkeeper chased after him and said that he was willing to buy the basket for nine hundred taels. ”

Qianshu couldn't laugh anymore. These foolish words were also believed by these ancients.

But the slave didn't agree, and told the shopkeeper that it was better to keep nine hundred taels and buy someone else's basket, and don't want the Nine Heavens Goddess's basket. The shopkeeper seemed to hesitate what the slave said. The slave and maid went to another pawnshop, and before the shopkeeper of that pawnshop came out, the shopkeeper of the pawnshop on West Street came with him, and pulled the slave and maid out alive, saying that he was willing to buy it for a thousand taels of silver. Hua Rong's mood was up and down, and it was the first time to talk about such a big deal.

"Well done, I'll reward you with ten taels of silver. But right now, I'm in a hurry to use the silver, so I can only go back and write it down for you and Yunshang. Qianshu said.

One thousand taels of silver, that's great! With an extra hundred taels, she can prepare a lot of things. First ask a reliable person to teach basic skills; and use some of the money to honor those local snakes, and wait for them, someone will cover them, and the shop will be less troublesome; The rest of the money is used to buy goods and make working capital......

When he was thinking about it, he couldn't help but shout to another buying maid: "Fu, come here." ”

After a long time, the maid threw a small basket of vegetables over: "This is the food you bought?" It's not fresh at all, and it's a waste of silver. You have to think about how to talk to Concubine Shen. ”

Annoying, these women are so annoying.

You can't get by without bothering her for a day, can you? When Qianshu looked at those dishes, he didn't buy them at all. She didn't understand, she didn't want to rob this servant of the credit, and she didn't want to expose her, why did this biting herself?

Hua Rong glared at the servant angrily: "She's only on the first day of errand, and you are also responsible if she doesn't do well." ”

The maid ignored Huarong and turned around and left.

"Hey, who's this?" Flower Rong that gas. It's not like her master is a bully, everyone wants to step on it. She was unconvinced: "Master, don't be afraid, she is a relative of the Yun family, and she has been buying in the mansion all these years, no matter how many more maids are added, she will be the only one left in the end." If there is no cat here, the slave and maid will not believe it. ”

Chishu shrugged. Isn't it just to explain to Shen Bailian? She wasn't afraid when she wasn't buying before, and she won't be afraid now.

Slowly pacing towards Lianqing Courtyard, as soon as he turned a corner, he saw He slag and Chaoyu in front of him, and there was a beauty next to him, Qianshu vaguely remembered that this was He Slag's concubine.

It's impossible to pretend that she didn't see it, so she can only salute.

He Dongfeng walked up to her: "What are you going to do?" Ready to buy? ”

Yun was stunned, is this still a master? So gentle. She came to find her because she was picked up by Concubine Shen and came to sue Fu.

She didn't want to wade into the troubled waters of the Fu family, but the Fu family was the buyer, and the other person who bought was her cousin's sister-in-law, she was afraid that the Fu family would make something happen again, and she would not have any good fruit to eat at that time, so she listened to Concubine Shen.

Qian Shu replied respectfully: "The slave maid was about to go to Concubine Shen's courtyard and explain to her why the things the slave and maid bought were not fresh and expensive. ”

Yun Shi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "That's your mistake, everyone knows, when buying things on the basis of good things, reduce expenses." ”

He Dongfeng glanced at her, and she didn't dare to make a sound. Ye's eyes were very cold.

"And how do you explain that?"

Qian Shu explained indifferently: "As a purchase, of course, it is to do as much as you want to do with as much silver. The vegetables bought by the slave and maid are not fresh, and they are also the best ones to buy in the price range. If someone buys a better dish for the same amount of money, either with their own money or with their own vegetables, and neither is it, then there is a problem. ”

He Dongfeng said two words for the first time: "Reasonable." If so, what do you think is the problem? ”

Qianshu raised his eyes and glanced at him, a little unbelieving that this was what He Slag said. And looking at his expression, he was not angry. Then let's say, whoever you offend, that person deserves it.

"Slaves and maids are foolish, this biggest problem is that they are stupid and have a lot of money as princes, and they can scrape a little is a little, and they can scrape ten taels and never scrape a penny."
