Wei Lan thought about it seriously, if there was a sewing machine, she could learn from Grandma Gu how to measure the size and cut the clothes, and then tie the thread on the sewing machine again, it would not be troublesome.

Wei Lan pondered in her heart, Gu Chao hugged her slender waist tightly, and said, "Then buy it." ”

"Huh?" Wei Lan looked up at him, his eyes full of doubts, thinking that he had misheard, and asked again: "What?" ”

Is it so simple and crude? Buy it outright?

"I'll go get something and I'll be back in a minute." Gu Chao said, picked Wei Lan up by the waist, put him straight on the chair, opened the door and strode towards his house.

Wei Lan was still confused, and Gu Chao had already walked in with a package and an envelope.

The package was the one that Gu Chao had brought back last night, it looked a little big, but it didn't seem to take much weight.

Wei Lan took the package and opened it, "Cashmere thread? ”

The white and black cashmere threads are soft and fluffy, and they feel warm and warm to the touch.

At least 90 percent wool!

It's a really good thing!

Wei Lan immediately hugged two rolls into his arms, looking even happier than seeing Gu Chao come back.

Gu Chao choked in his heart, sat next to him, took out a stack of colorful tickets from the envelope, and counted them in front of Wei Lan.

Wei Lan carried the large package of cashmere thread to the bed and put it down, and paced back again, a pair of peach blossom eyes lit up: "So much money? ”

"Hmm." Gu Chao replied lightly, had already counted the five hundred fragments of the Great Unity aside, and continued to count the rest.

Wei Lan asked again: "It's so thick, how many are there?" ”

"The big yellow croaker was sold for seven thousand two, and I bought cloth for business in the sea market, and I also bought other things, and after all, there should be five thousand six or seven."

Wei Lan nodded again, took out the notebook and pen from the drawer, wrote down everything Gu Chaogang said, and asked again after a while: "What did you buy?" Also, How much do those cashmere threads cost? ”

"Cashmere thread costs two dollars a roll, and the textile factory only has these, and I took them all." Gu Chao tilted his head, pinched the ticket with one hand, and gently scraped the tip of Wei Lan's nose with the other, and said with a smile in his dark and deep eyes: "As for what you bought, you will go to the post office tomorrow to see, and you will know." ”

Wei Lan said before that he wanted a TV, Gu Chao always kept it in mind, and when he had money in his hand, he bought things in the sea market.

He wanted to surprise Wei Lan.

"It's still sold." Wei Lan pursed her lips and snorted.

Gu Chao smiled without saying a word, counted out the remaining five thousand seven hundred yuan, he took out one thousand yuan from it, and handed the remaining four thousand seven yuan to Wei Lan, "Part of this thousand yuan has to be paid for the final payment, and I will keep the rest for circulation, you can take these away." ”

Wei Lan didn't answer for a long time, and her peach blossom eyes were full of surprise: "Give, give me?" Don't you have to give it to grandma? ”

"Grandma is old, and you usually take care of the house, you take all this money, and you can buy whatever you want." Gu Chao's voice was deep, as if he had made a promise, and looked at Wei Lan seriously, "I will make more money in the future, and I will give it to you." ”

After saying this, Gu Chao's eyes flickered, his Adam's apple rolled, and he faintly felt that the roots of his ears were a little hot.

Wei Lan suddenly smiled and teased: "If you give me all the money, aren't you afraid that I will run away?" ”

"Wherever you run, I can get you back." Gu Chao suddenly leaned over and pecked at the corner of her lips, "Moreover, you can't run away." ”

"I'm annoying you, I'm not serious!" Wei Lan pushed Gu Chao away in embarrassment, and buried himself in the notebook to calculate the accounts, "What kind of cloths did you buy?" How much does it cost? And how much are you going to sell? ”

Gu Chao came one by one, and told Wei Lan what he had said to Gu Yang.

"Ah, ...... that's it"

Wei Lan paused, buried his head and quickly listed two formulas, and finally pushed them to Gu Chao: "Five horses of each type of cloth of four colors, converted into two thousand feet, so that Brother Yang does not have to bear the cost risk, if he sells them, he can get eighty yuan, and we have two hundred and eighty yuan in hand." ”

"Three of the solid color cloth cost two cents per foot, the net profit is one cent eight, and one is a small fan cloth printed on a white background, the cost price is two cents and five, I am ready to sell it for five cents, do not want a cloth ticket."

Gu Chao nodded, shook his head again, and said in a faint voice: "If they are all sold, Brother Yang should get eighty-five yuan, and we can get three hundred and one after deducting the cost and Brother Yang's commission." ”

Gu Chao said it in an orderly manner, and it was obviously in his heart that he had already written it in his heart.

Wei Lan nodded, signaling understanding, and said worriedly: "However, with a total of two thousand feet of cloth, this amount is quite ......."

Gu Chao had been paying attention to the change in Wei Lan's expression, afraid that she would mind, but he didn't expect that Wei Lan would settle the accounts, but he was worried that the goods would not be good, and he didn't care about anything else.

Gu Chao felt a burst of ironing and emotion in his heart for no reason.

His girl, who is always kind and knowledgeable, is that he thinks left.

Gu Chao said with a smile: "The New Year is coming to an end." ”

Wei Lan was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted.

She patted her head and exclaimed, "Yes! It's almost the New Year, why didn't I think of it? ”

When the New Year is approaching, in order to celebrate and have more hope for the coming year, they grit their teeth and buy some New Year's goods.

Among these New Year's goods, the more practical needles and threads and fabrics account for the majority.

"Brother Chao, you are too smart!"

What about being smart? It's just a good idea!

Wei Lan was happy to calculate the accounts for a long time, and suddenly remembered something, she got up and ran to the bed, and pulled out a folded sweater from the inside of the pillow.

It was the one she had woven in the past few days when Gu Chao had been out.

Wei Lan shook off the sweater, and first compared it to Gu Chao for a while, it looked a bit big, but it depended on the effect of the upper body.

Gu Chao was still wearing the thin jacket that Wei Lan filled with cotton before going out, it was quite warm before, and it was not enough to look at it in such a snowy day.

The padded jacket on his body has been worn out for more than ten days, and it is still clean and tidy, and it can be seen that he usually pays attention not to get dirty, but the gap in his chest is very obvious.

The fabric around the gap was deflated, as if cotton had come out of it and been rudely stuffed back.

Wei Lan stretched out his hand and stuffed the sweater into Gu Chao's arms, and hummed, "Put it on and take a look at me!" ”

She pushed Gu Chao back to her room to change clothes, and she put the four thousand yuan back in the envelope.

Wei Lan walked around the house with the envelope, always feeling that it was not safe to put it anywhere.

This money is not only a large amount, but also of extraordinary significance, it is the money that Gu Chao risked his life in exchange, and she must collect it.

Looking around the room, noticing the iron rings and locks on the drawers of the long table by the window, Wei Lan took out the brass key from his neck and replaced the small lock on the rattan box to the drawer.

The envelope containing the money was placed in the drawer, and Wei Lan counted out some things of actual value in the rattan box, put them in the drawer and pressed them on top of the envelope.
