Chapter 13 Buy, Buy, Buy
"Yes." Bu Linglong put down the back basket and removed the rag covering it, revealing the white fungus inside, so that the housekeeper of the Wang family could take a closer look.
"It's just the upper layer, and there's one below, and I'm worried that it's going to be damaged all the way, so I laid straw to ensure integrity."
The housekeeper of Wang's Mansion carefully looked at the white fungus picked by Bu Linglong in good condition, and each one was very complete, so he said, "The quality is good." ”
"Come on, take out all the white fungus, give me a careful look, if it's broken, you just wait to be cleaned up." The housekeeper was very satisfied with Bu Linglong's white fungus, only saw the upper layer, and the rest did not see, this price was not legal for the time being, so he called someone to come over and help the white fungus come out, and at the same time told them to be careful when taking it.
When all the white fungus was placed on the support, the housekeeper nodded with satisfaction, "Little lady, the quality of the white fungus is very good, I will give you eight taels of silver for a white fungus, you have a total of 36 flowers here, a total of two hundred and eighty-eight taels, what do you think?" ”
Bu Linglong agreed without thinking about this price when she heard it.
It can be seen that the housekeeper of this Wang Mansion is a kind person.
The good quality is generally four or five taels of silver, and the difference is in one or two taels, he directly gave a high price of eight taels and one flower, she has no reason to refuse, and it is already good that he has not been lowered by him, how can there be any reason to disagree.
"Little lady, come with me, I'll take you to the account room to settle the bill."
"Yes, there is labor."
Bu Linglong followed the housekeeper of Wang's Mansion to enter through a side door and saw a corner of Wang's Mansion.
I found that the people outside did not exaggerate, Wang Mansion deserved to be the richest man in Qingshui County, luxurious enough, and the courtyard was similar to the ancient garden architectural style.
The housekeeper led Bu Linglong all the way to the account room, and asked the account room to settle with two hundred and eighty-eight taels of silver.
Two silver bills of one hundred, one silver ticket of fifty taels, and three ingots of silver of ten taels, and three taels of broken silver.
"Little lady, there are a total of two hundred and eighty-eight taels here, you can order it."
Bu Linglong shook his head, did not take the silver ticket, raised a smile and said: "See if you can help me exchange it for ten taels of silver ingots, there is no money bank in the town that can exchange silver tickets, and it is not easy for me to go back and forth to the county seat." I can only trouble you. ”
When the housekeeper heard this, he felt that it made sense, it was indeed not easy for a country woman like her to come to the county seat, and they preferred the feeling of holding the silver in their hands, but he was negligent, "You wait, I'll let the account room change it for you." ”
The housekeeper gave Bu Linglong the thirty-three taels of silver in his hand first, turned around and entered the account room with two hundred and fifty taels, and when he came out again, he carried a cloth bag in his hand, which contained two hundred and fifty taels of silver, and a total of twenty-five taels of silver ingots.
Bu Linglong took the cloth bag, nodded it in front of the housekeeper, put the thirty taels in his hand into the cloth bag, and finally put it in the back basket and hid it at the bottom of the straw.
"Little lady, the price of our Wangfu purchase of white fungus is relatively high, if you still have white fungus next time, even if you send it to Wangfu, you can definitely rest assured of the price." The young lady's love of eating white fungus has reached the point where the supply exceeds demand, and the housekeeper must of course do what she likes, and she said hello at the same time.
There are not many white fungus on the market, and there is a way to charge a little more.
Bu Linglong saw that Steward Wang was sincere, and responded happily, "Okay, if I get it again when I go back, I will continue to send it to your Wang Mansion." ”
"Okay." Steward Wang's face was full of smiles.
Today, he has harvested so much white fungus, which is enough for the young lady to eat for a while, and the young lady is happy, can his reward be less.
Bu Linglong finished settling the silver taels and left Wang's mansion.
She felt that five taels and one flower was already the price of the sky, but she didn't expect Steward Wang to offer her a high price of eight taels and one flowers, which was more than one hundred taels more than she expected, no different from a windfall from the sky.
With so much money, the house can be put on the agenda, but she won't find someone to build a house now, no matter what, she will have to wait for about a month.
People, you can't get rich, and once you earn too much, it's easy to attract envy.
It's okay to make a fortune at home, but not for other people's families, especially the Su family.
In the past, Su Hansong was still at home, and the life of the Su family was still quite considerable, since he disappeared, he spent money to marry Bu Linglong, and the originally wealthy family suddenly became poor, Bu Linglong was lazy and lazy, and the remaining money in the family was also given to Huo Huo.
Out of Wang's house, she put the cloth bag in the back basket directly into the space, and only storing it in this place is the safest.
There are more than thirty taels on his body, which can be used to buy things, and there are too many things that need to be added at home.
With money, you naturally have to be worthy of yourself.
Money is earned, not saved.
Bu Linglong doesn't plan to buy rice or grain in the county, although there is space, but it is also a troublesome matter, and if you can use less, you can use less.
She is going to buy fabrics and spices in the county, after all, it is in the county, and the supply must be more abundant than in the town.
The children's clothes at home are full of patches, and if they are torn, they can't be repaired, so buying cloth to make clothes is the first thing.
The three cubs are still young, and they don't need much fabric to make clothes, and they don't cost a lot of money, and several sets of clothes in the original body are new, so she doesn't have to buy her own, but she has to buy the old lady's.
Bu Linglong inquired in the county and found the relatively affordable cloth shop.
Living in the village, you don't need to dress too well, it's almost fine.
When the cloth shop owner saw Bu Linglong entering the store, he immediately came over to greet him warmly.
The proprietress looks about thirty years old, and she looks average, but the smile on her face makes people look very comfortable and gives people a feeling of getting along well.
"Little lady, come and buy cloth."
Bu Linglong nodded.
"Buy it for yourself or for your family? There are many kinds of fabrics in my house, and the price is affordable, you can take a look at it first, if you find it troublesome, I can also recommend it for you. ”
Bu Linglong swept her eyes over the fabrics in the store, and then said: "I bought them for my children and mother-in-law, three of them are sons, one is six years old, and two twins are three years old. ”
The proprietress looked at Bu Linglong with some surprise, "Little lady, do you have three children?" ”
"Hmm." There's no need to explain, they're her children.
"I really didn't see it, seeing that you are not very old, you are only in your teens. Good fortune. ”
The proprietress was a little envious, this little lady was really blessed, she gave birth to three male babies in her life, and her status in her mother-in-law's family was nothing to say.
"Thank you."
After talking to Bu Linglong, the proprietress led her to see a few horses.
"Little lady, look at it, the price of these horses is relatively cheap and good. Ordinary people can wear such materials, the upper body is comfortable, and they don't have to spend too much money. ”
After introducing the cloth in her hand, the proprietress then introduced the next one, "This horse is mixed with cotton, one foot thirty Wen, this one is pure cotton, one foot forty Wen, this horse ~~~"
Listening to the proprietress talking, Bu Linglong touched the softness of the fabric.
The children's skin is tender, Bu Linglong plans to buy cotton to make clothes for them, and the old lady is old, so she can buy cotton.
"I'm going to make two sets of clothes for each of my three children, the children's ones are pure cotton, one is six years old, the other two are three years old, and my mother-in-law wants to mix cotton, and I also make two, how many feet of cloth are needed, you can calculate it, the color of the child is blue, and my mother-in-law's you help me get the dark red."
The proprietress hurriedly responded, "Okay, little lady, you wait a while, I'll cut it for you." ”
Soon the fabrics for children and adults were cut according to the requirements, and a total of 1,490 wen was calculated.
The proprietress is a businessman, and she gave Bu Linglong a discount of ten yuan, and in the end she only received 1,480 yuan, and also added some useless rags to her.
"Little lady, give you some rags, you can take it back to mend clothes or make purses, it doesn't count as money. It's all wrapped up for you, you take it. ”
"Thank you, hostess."
"Haha, you're welcome, little lady, next time you need to come back again, I will definitely give you a discount."
"Okay, no problem. Good bye. ”
After buying the fabric, Bu Linglong went straight to the grocery store, and she still had to buy a lot of seasonings.
In the past two days, her mouth has faded out of the bird, and she is worried that she will not be able to carry it if she does not eat something tasteful.
Bu Linglong didn't buy some big ingredients in the grocery store, only bought oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, which are often used seasonings, as well as some vegetable seeds, the most expensive in the grocery store is salt and oil, the last time I bought it was too little, and I had to buy more, and I spent more than 800 yuan in the grocery store.
Food made without big ingredients has no soul and is not fragrant enough.
After walking around the county again, when she saw a pharmacy, she suddenly remembered that many ingredients were used as medicinal herbs in ancient times, and there would definitely be no grocery stores.
He patted his pig's head vigorously, lifted the shoulder strap of the basket, and walked into the pharmacy.
"Little lady, take medicine or see a doctor?" The little medicine boy stepped forward to entertain.
"I want fennel, cinnamon, star anise~~~" Bu Linglong reported the names of the things he needed in a row.
"Little lady, you don't look like you're catching medicine, it's useless for you to buy these."
"I'm useful, you can help catch it." How could these things be useless, they are too useful.
"Okay." Seeing that she insisted, the little medicine boy gave half a catty of everything according to her request.
"Little lady, it's all right, a total of 2,100 Wen."
"Give." Bu Linglong took out an equal amount of silver taels and put them on the table, put all the spices on the cabinet into the back basket behind him, and turned around and left the pharmacy.
After looking at the sky and touching her hungry stomach, Bu Linglong found a noodle stall, ordered a bowl of shredded meat noodles to eat and drink, and went to the market to take a carriage back to Baiyao Town.
She was not very lucky, there was no carriage to Baiyao Town, and if she wanted to take the carriage to Baiyao Town, she would have to wait for at least an hour or so.
After waiting too long, Bu Linglong directly gave up the carriage, chose the ox cart, and swayed for less than two hours, and finally returned to Baiyao Town.
