"Xiao Jiang, Xiao Jiang, I'm here to bring you clothes." The middle-aged man carefully put the wooden basin with clean clothes in his hand on the ground, supported his waist with one hand, and tapped the door vigorously with the other, shouting.

It was not a chubby fat man who opened the door, but a dark-skinned female man, she scratched her head, and said innocently: "The husband has gone out for the time being, and he hasn't come back yet, just give me the clothes." ”

"You've been walking for so long, are you thirsty? Come to the house for a bowl of water, right? ”

As she spoke, she picked up her clothes, but she was stunned for a moment by the fragrance that suddenly spread on the tip of her nose, and her nose fluttered, "What kind of smell is this?" ”

The middle-aged man beating his waist pulled a smile on his face, "This is the smell of soap, when I went out shopping today, I happened to meet the store to give gifts, saying that washing clothes with this can be clean, so I took a piece back and washed clothes." ”

Women generally wear short brown robes, brown is the least likely to be dirty, but women do hard work, every day of work is sweat and sweat, every time you take off your clothes, there is a smell of baking, even if you wash it in the water several times, there is still a lingering smell of sweat.

Every time the wolf complains that her clothes are difficult to wash, not only is it time-consuming and laborious, but it is not clean after washing, and this is the first time that a woman has smelled the fragrance on her clothes.

The woman was a little intoxicated, "This smells so good." ”

The smile on the middle-aged man's face deepened, "Yes, I also feel that it smells good, if it weren't for the clean and smelly washing, I wouldn't dare to use it." ”

"What, which store gave you a gift? How come I haven't heard of this before? The woman's eyes lit up.

Maybe she can also go and get a piece now, give it away for free, don't want it for nothing, let alone have such a good effect.

As soon as he heard this, the middle-aged man realized the woman's thoughts, and immediately said with some regret: "It's the house that your husband said in the morning, but their house is closed now, and they said that they will open the door in a few days." ”

"I've seen this soap? It's a big piece of 30 copper plates, and it's sold in the size of a palm, but it's not cheap. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that it was out of stock, the store wouldn't have taken it out and gave it away."

In this way, the woman sighed a little disappointed, but it was a pity. immediately reacted, he actually talked to someone at the door of his house until now, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "Let's not talk about this first, what's up, you wait for me to pour you a bowl of water." ”

"No, no," the middle-aged man smiled on his face, stretching out some of the wrinkles of hard work, "I still have clothes to wash here, so I won't stay long, I'll go back, I don't need you to pour it for me." ”

Ignoring the woman's retention, he left directly.

This is not an excuse, when he went to the river to wash clothes with soap before, the washed clothes were clean and beautiful and had a fragrance of their own, I don't know how many eyes they aroused, and business came to the door.

However, after washing clothes once, there are five or six businesses coming to the door, which are all blessings of soap, and the thought of making money after washing clothes, middle-aged men can't wait to offer that little piece of soap.

Although the soap was not large, only three fingers wide, it was surprisingly durable, and she washed a large basin of clothes, and only eliminated a little.

The old man has not seen much of the world, but he secretly worships soap as a treasure in his heart, and even secretly guesses whether such a magical thing will be created by a god and purify all beings?

On the other side, Xue Rou turned around and came to Piaoxiang Building again.

Every time I came to Piaoxiang Building before, the building was always full of friends, but this time Xue Rou came to Piaoxiang Building and found that the business in the building was unexpectedly deserted.

Xue Rou found the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper's face was sad, and when she saw her coming, she barely smiled, "Miss Xue, what kind of wind blew you here?" The small shop is really full of splendor! ”

"What a fluffy and shining, shopkeeper Zhang, really good at making fun of people. Xue just cheekily came over to talk about a business, but the business in this store seems to be a bit deserted! Xue Rou looked around and asked with a little curiosity.

The corners of the shopkeeper's mouth twitched, but seeing that Xue Rou was indeed just a question, rather than a deliberate mockery, he swallowed a mouthful of old blood and said with a sad face: "Who said it wasn't?" It's getting hotter and hotter, and the food in the store can't be sold at all. Miss Xue came to sell spices this time, but she has used less recently, so she can't buy much. ”

Xue Rou frowned, she didn't come to sell spices, but if she wanted to engage in a wave of farming, selling spices was essential.

Is it because the weather is too hot to sell? Xue Rou's eyes rolled, and suddenly a brilliant idea came to mind, "Shopkeeper, I got a secret recipe by chance before, which is suitable for summer business, I don't know if you are interested?" ”

"Oh?" The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows, "Of course I'm interested, please, please go upstairs to the private room." ”

Since buying a steady stream of spices from Xue Rou, the shopkeeper didn't dare to underestimate Xue Rou at all, although he had doubts, he didn't dare to show it at all.

When she arrived at the private room, Xue Rou sat down and went straight to the point, "The weather is so hot, why don't you buy some ice to put in the house, and put a few big pieces of ice in the four corners and center of the hall, when there are guests dining, you only need to fan it gently, and the room can be cool." ”

I thought Xue Rou had some solution, but I didn't expect it to be an old face of the cliché shopkeeper pulled into a bitter gourd face, "Miss Xue, it's not that I'm reluctant to spend money to buy it, but this year's weather is too hot, and ice cubes have no price. ”

The ice cubes in Da Zhou are the exclusive property of the wealthy, and the ice is moved to the ice warehouse in winter, which is low all year round, and even in summer, there will be a large amount of ice stored for the rich to enjoy.

However, this year's climate is too hot, the ice cubes in the past can be saved eight or nine times out of ten, but this year's ice cubes are stored two or three out of ten, those who have ice storage are too late to enjoy themselves, how can they sell out?

"Before I went down, I sent people to ask for ice from the four families of King Qian, Li Sun, and all of them were fruitless, alas, ......"

How much sadness and helplessness does this lament contain, I thought I would get the sympathy and relief of the person in front of me, but I didn't expect to hear a laugh?

Shopkeeper Zhang raised his head in disbelief, and sure enough, Xue Rou's mouth let out one after another, and there were continuous hey and hey sounds, and his expression suddenly changed, with a little anger in his expression, "Miss Xue, what does this mean?" "Are you making fun of her?

Xue Rou stopped laughing, but put her arms around the chubby shoulders of the shopkeeper, "Hehe, don't be angry, shopkeeper Zhang, I just thought of a great idea, and as long as you do what I say, there will be a steady stream of ice cubes for you to use in the future." ”

"When others are still basking in the sun, Piaoxiang Building is sending ice cubes as soon as you enter the door, so are you still afraid that your business will not be good?"

Xue Rou's expression was tempting, and the shopkeeper Zhang was breathing rapidly, with an unbelievable expression, and his face was full of expressions of being hit by a pie falling from the sky, "Miss Xue, what you said is true?" ”

"Of course!" Xue Rou made a loud noise.
