158 Embarrassment (4 more)
After sending off the shopkeeper, several people entered the house, and Gu Yi happily walked to the table.
In the morning, the people who came to buy peppermint oil were all students from slightly poor families, and they were given copper plates, which occupied most of the table, so he grabbed a handful and lifted it slightly, let go of his hand, and let the copper plate fall back on the table, and then grabbed another handful, and raised it again, playing very happily.
Song Si walked over and stopped him with disgust, and at the same time pulled some copper plates in front of him, "Hurry up and count, let's go to the door to sell it after lunch." ”
"It's me and Young Master Gu, there's nothing about the eldest brother."
Song Wanyue also came over and sat down, pulling some copper plates in front of herself, "Even if the shopkeeper doesn't come to me, I won't sell it upstairs in the afternoon, which will affect the eldest brother's reading." ”
I was able to go down and play! Gu Yi's eyes lit up instantly, and he couldn't help but nod happily, "Yes, yes, yes, I can't delay my eldest brother from reading, I and the little girl will go out to sell." ”
Song Si's eyes were full of copper plates on most of the table, and he counted them very carefully, and he didn't say anything else when he heard the words. It's really time for me to read, and if the two of them are too busy, they have their own Xiaosi and a few other little guys to help.
"Excuse me, is peppermint oil sold here?"
There was an inquiry at the door.
Gu Yi was overjoyed, bent down and picked up the back basket with a few bottles of mint oil left and strode out.
The door was opened by Xiao Si from the outside, and the people standing at the door saw a gorgeously dressed young man come out with a basket on his back and were stunned in place.
Gu Yi had already walked to the door, "One hundred and twenty wen for a bottle of peppermint oil, if you bring a friend to buy it after you buy it, you will be refunded ten wen per bottle." “
Hearing his words, the person at the door came back to his senses and asked with a slight embarrassment, "Can you sell this peppermint oil on behalf of you?" ”
Song Wanyue looked at him, wearing a washed white blue coarse cloth robe, and at first glance, his family background was very bad.
didn't encounter this situation in the morning, Gu Yi didn't know how to answer for a while, and looked back at Song Wanyue.
Song Wanyue got up and walked over and nodded, "Yes." ”
The man was even more embarrassed, lowered his head slightly, and didn't dare to look at their expressions, "Can I sell some on my behalf?" ”
"Yes, the deposit for each bottle is one hundred and five Wen, whatever you sell, we will recover the rest at the original price."
The man's two hands hanging down at his side tightened slightly, and his voice was as low as a mosquito, "I, I don't have any money, can I use something else as collateral?" ”
"Yes."
It seemed that he didn't expect Song Wanyue to agree so happily, and the man raised his head in disbelief.
"What do you want to use as collateral?"
The man hurriedly took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it to him, "This is my guide and appearance book, which can be used as collateral." ”
"Road Guide" and "Physiognomy Book" are equivalent to the "admission ticket" and "ID card" of modern society. These two things are extraordinary, and they are very, very important, and they are related to whether students can enter the examination room.
Song Wanyue took it and didn't look at it, "How many bottles do you want to sell?" ”
"Twenty bottles."
"Big brother, get him twenty bottles."
Song Si took out twenty bottles, and saw that he was covered with a bookish atmosphere, and he should also be a student who came to the scientific examination.
The man standing at the door was very embarrassed, took the peppermint oil, thanked him, turned around and hurried downstairs.
Song Si watched his back disappear at the top of the stairs, and then sighed softly, if it weren't for Yue'er, I'm afraid that his embarrassment when he came to Fucheng this time would be similar to that person just now.
Song Wanyue handed the cloth bag to Song Si, "It's better for the eldest brother to help put such an important thing." ”
Song Si carefully held it in his hand, "Yue'er, you did the right thing." ”
Even if you can sell ten bottles, you will get at least 100 yuan. If you are frugal, you will have a few days of food or a day's store money. Looking at the person's clothes just now, I'm afraid that even the money to come to Fucheng was borrowed, and it was a great thing for him to have this opportunity to earn some.
……
After lunch, as soon as Song Si returned to the house, Gu Yi couldn't wait to go over and pick up another basket, beckoning Song Wanyue to go downstairs and come to the outside of the inn.
The weather at the beginning of August is very pleasant in autumn.
Gu Yi put the basket on the left side of the inn door, and the guy was just about to step forward to say something, when the shopkeeper waved his hand at him.
He could see that Song Wanyue was a well-informed little girl, and she should know how to do it.
Sure enough, Song Wanyue asked Gu Yi to move the back basket a little farther away.
Gu Yi put down the basket and began to look around. Fucheng is indeed much more prosperous than the county, with many shops and many people coming and going.
He put down the basket, his beautiful eyes rolled around a few times, and he put on a pitiful look, "Little girl, we haven't even left the inn door since we came to Fucheng, mine is going to suffocate, can we wait for a while and then sell peppermint oil, go elsewhere first." ”
"Okay."
Gu Yi said just that, and he didn't have much hope. He knows Song Wanyue very well, she is a little money fan, and it is difficult for her to play with her without making money.
At first glance, when she heard Song Wanyue agree, she thought that something was wrong with her ears, and looked at her in a daze.
Looking at this silly look, Song Wanyue couldn't help laughing, "What's the matter, don't want to go?" ”
Gu Yicai reacted immediately, and almost jumped up with joy, "Little girl, you agreed?" ”
"I want to get out there too."
"Then let's go!"
Gu Yi completely forgot about peppermint oil, and was about to run away when he grabbed Song Wanyue's hand, but was pulled by Song Wanyue, "Wait." ”
Gu Yimei turned his head with a smile, and slowly tightened Song Wanyue's hand, and Ruyu's face floated with a beautiful bubbling flush.
"Little four, you stay and sell peppermint oil, if there are too many people to come, call them to come and help you."
The little four feet stepped out, listening to Song Wanyue's words and was unwilling to take it back, he has been serving by the young master's side since he was a child, he will follow the young master wherever he goes, and he has never left, and there are many people in this city, if he doesn't follow, what if the young master has a mistake?
"Miss Song, I'd better go along, these peppermint oils have already been sold anyway, and someone comes to the door, and a few of them know how to sell them."
The voice fell, and he was kicked hard by Gu Yi. This thing that doesn't have long eyesight, today I finally had the opportunity to be alone with the little girl, what are you messing with?
After kicking out, he said in a vicious voice, "You stay, and if you can't sell ten taels of silver at night, take out the twenty taels of silver tickets that the little girl gave you and make up for it." ”
Xiao Si wailed in his heart, did the young master know how important the twenty taels of silver tickets were to them? If you really take it out, they won't even be able to take out the money for the young master to buy a candy man on the street in the future.
After finishing talking about Xiao Si, Gu Yi changed his smile for a second, "Little girl, let's go." ”
Today is still a diligent day. (〃▽〃)
