Chapter 55: The Rabbit Who Loves to Make Holes
Ye He, Liu Fusheng and the others counted the remaining sachets, and made all the tassels they needed, so Liu Man'er asked them to rest first, and then painted the remaining sachets with patterns.
After the last bit of work was done, Fang also called for dinner.
Liu Man'er's stomach was also a little hungry, so she put down her things first and went to eat with Ye Yuan and Ye Feng.
After eating, she first asked Ye Feng about copying the book, Ye Feng said that he still had a little bit to finish copying, and Liu Man'er asked him to finish copying tonight, she planned to return this book to the shopkeeper and then exchange two new books.
After Ye Feng left, she was thinking about the day's harvest with the Fang family and Ye Yuan, and sold all the flower baskets today, got one or two silver, and bought some other things, which cost a total of fifty or sixty yuan.
However, she counted the sachets she made today, and made a total of two hundred and fifty-eight, which was enough to fill two baskets, and if she could sell them all, she could earn more than two taels of silver.
"Two or two?" When Fang heard Liu Man'er say that these sachets could be sold for so much silver, they were immediately stunned: "Man'er, don't scare me, can these sachets really buy so much money?" ”
She was actually a little worried that she wouldn't be able to sell it, and in her opinion, a sachet of five cents a piece was a bit expensive.
"Don't you think the sachets we made look good?" Liu Man'er took out one of the sachets, this sachet is extremely elegant, the small body, the big tassel tail, compared with other sachets, it does have a different charm.
"It's good-looking, it's just that it's five cents, isn't it too expensive?" Fang picked up a sachet and couldn't put it down.
"How come, the things are good, the price is high, you get what you pay for." Liu Man'er said with a smile, "Don't say anything else, let's just say that the flowers on this sachet are painted by Master Liu, a descendant of Liu Zongyuan, and it is already very close to the people when sold at this price, and this sachet has been opened in front of the Buddha." ”
"Man'er, don't talk nonsense, this flower is clearly painted by you, when is it Master Liu again?" Fang is an honest person, and when she hears that Liu Man'er is going to be dishonest, she wants to correct her.
"I'm Master Liu." Liu Man'er said seriously.
"You?" Fang Shi frowned.
"That's right." Liu Man'er nodded.
"Are you self-appointed?" Fang asked tentatively.
"My mother is so smart." Liu Man'er laughed.
"Since ancient times, the name of this master has been called by others, and you are embarrassed to proclaim yourself a master." Fang laughed, thinking that Liu Man'er was too naughty.
Liu Man'er smiled, "I'm playing with you, I just want to tell you that this sachet is worth the money, you see, my painting is no worse than others, right?" ”
"That's right." The way nodded, and said: "Anyway, you can let me do it, but I can't intervene if I sell it." ”
"Yes." Liu Man'er nodded and said, "Anyway, mother, you are waiting for my good news at home, and after I sell them all, I will go home and buy you candied fruit." ”
Fang smiled and nodded, and everyone chatted for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
The next day, Liu Man'er took Ye He to carry her sachet to this temple fair to sell, yesterday the little monk was still there, Liu Man'er took advantage of no one, so from his basket, the peanut candy to the little monk, the little monk happily put it in his arms.
Liu Man'er and Ye He guarded the mountain gate with confidence, selling this sachet left and right.
After a while, there were more people in front of the temple, and sure enough, as Liu Man'er expected, she just made a flower basket yesterday, and someone imitated it today, and there is no property rights protection in ancient times, but it doesn't matter, these manual work is originally a simple thing, just buy one and take it home and open it will be done.
Liu Man'er herself also learned by groping.
But today, Liu Man'er sold this sachet, and there were also people selling it at this temple fair, but she occupied a good position, held this sachet in her hand, and she sold it to them when someone came: "Come, the sachet that has been opened in front of the Buddha, everyone buy one and hang it on your body to keep you safe." ”
Her sachet is indeed very elegant compared to others' colorful sachets, but the colorful tassels at the tail hem are really eye-catching, Liu Man'er herself likes her sachet very much, the texture of cotton and linen, smell it closely, there is a special aroma, rich but not greasy.
The pattern on the outside of the sachet is simple but elegant, and in comparison, it is indeed very likeable.
It's just five cents, and many people who come here don't know how much money they donate to this temple, so buying a sachet is naturally nothing.
Many people also bought multiple sachets and planned to take them home and hang them on the windowsill when the time came, or give them to others.
In short, Liu Man'er is looking at people to sell, some people who don't seem to have much money, she doesn't bother to push, like people like Fang's, she spends a penny on weekdays, she is a little distressed, and she must be reluctant to spend five pennies to buy a sachet.
And the family is poor, five cents is a lot of money for them, Liu Man'er is still very interesting, she sells things, and sees the consumer group.
It's the third day of this temple fair, the nearby residents have long left, and some of them have just seen the excitement at this temple fair, the people who came out of this temple are people who are dedicated to worshiping the Buddha, Liu Man'er This thing is not expensive, she looks and is pleasing, most people will buy one or two.
After all, this is in ancient times when it has not been polluted, if it is in the later life, it is different, in the later life, you are burning incense, and those people will be cheeky to ask you for sesame oil money.
Occasionally, one or two big monks would send guests out, Liu Man'er's ears were sensitive, and when they came, she left far away, and after they left, she took Ye He forward.
Today, because the sachet is a little too much, so it was not sold out until the afternoon, Liu Man'er gave the little monk ten copper plates as usual, and said that the next time I saw him, I would bring him food, and the little monk nodded happily.
He can't go out in this temple, he just wants money, and it's useless, Liu Man'er can bring him things, that's the best, but Liu Man'er She doesn't know when she will come over next time, but she also made it clear to the little monk that she may be a long, long time before she comes, and she lets the little monk have time to go to her house to play.
In the past few days, Liu Man'er chatted with the little monk when she was idle, she already knew the life experience of the little monk, it turned out that the little monk had left since his parents sent him to this temple, and the little monk himself did not know where his home was.
Every time another monk goes down the mountain, there is a place to go, but he has no home, and this Guanyin Temple is his home.
Liu Man'er looked a little distressed, she was such a person, she couldn't care about the things she didn't encounter, and when she did, it wouldn't be good if she released a little kindness to others.
"Then you have to remember, my home is in Nadawan Village, when you go to the village, say find Ye Yuan's house, and they will tell you where to go." Liu Man'er said seriously, she didn't know if the little monk would come, but the address still had to be clear to him, in case he had the opportunity to come next time.
"Okay, I'll write it down." The little monk nodded, Liu Man'er patted his head again, and left with Xiaohe.
When she went to town, the first thing she did was to take the book she had put under the basket to the bookstore and return it.
The shopkeeper of the bookstore flipped through the books brought by Liu Man'er, and saw that although the handwriting was not as beautiful as Liu Man'er's, it was very neat, so he nodded, paid Liu Man'er, and brought Liu Man'er a book to copy again.
Liu Man'er is also very grateful to him, in her eyes, it is really difficult to encounter such a thing as copying books.
Before leaving, the shopkeeper saw Ye He beside Liu Man'er, and took out two pastries from the inner room, saying that he wanted to give them to Ye He.
Liu Man'er refused many times, but the shopkeeper's kindness finally refused and accepted it.
It just so happened that there were two sachets left in her basket, so she gave them to the shopkeeper, who hung them on the pen holder, which was just right.
Leaving the town, as usual, I bought some food and went home.
This time, because Liu Man'er knew the reason why this Ye Tianchen didn't grow, she bought some pastries and some nuts, and planned to give them to Ye Tianchen.
In fact, she didn't have any children with her, she didn't understand these parenting scriptures, she just bought them by guessing, she guessed that children of this age should be able to eat them, anyway, when the time comes, she will know when she goes home and asks Fang's.
She bought two catties of sugar, and also bought some rice and noodles, etc., she thought that when the time came, she would go to the mountain to help Uncle Li pick loquats, so that she could give these things to him, in order to repay him for his kindness in taking her and Ye Yuan in the last time.
When she got home, she handed over the fraction she got from buying the sachet to the Fang family, and Liu Man'er herself put away the rest of the money, she counted it, and the money she earned during this period was more than four taels of silver, which was about equivalent to four thousand yuan in her previous life, well, it was very good to be able to earn four thousand yuan in a short period of time.
However, it is still far from her desire to buy land and build a house.
In the past few days, Ye Yuan has gone hunting as usual, and Liu Man'er has followed, her ears are sensitive, every time she goes up the mountain, Ye Yuan always harvests a lot, because Ye Qing is now on duty in the restaurant, Ye Yuan's prey, in addition to keeping it for his own family, is sent to this restaurant to be sold every time.
Liu Man'er is concerned about his own rabbits, they are too shrewd, yesterday Liu Man'er went to feed these rabbits, and found that they used this hind leg to make a hole, almost made a hole in the kitchen, fortunately they found it early, otherwise, the rabbit that was caught so hard was escaped by it.
No wonder it is said that it is a cunning rabbit three holes, these rabbits are too powerful, and their claws are not very sharp, obviously rabbits, why should they learn to burrow with mice?
