Chapter 20: Buying Cloth
After everyone discussed, they began to pull the car towards the county seat.
However, their clothes are too shabby, although they can't be seen as prisoners, but they always make people mistakenly think that they are called Hanako who have fled from other places, and many bosses are reluctant to deal with them.
Song He'er hated this kind of snobbish thing the most, and after looking at dozens of stores, she didn't buy any of them.
Qin Xiaoniang saw that it was getting late, and she didn't want everyone to run back and forth in the county, so she had to persuade her: "We have to find a place to rest, why don't we come back tomorrow?" ”
Chunrao and Chundi also felt a little tired after pulling the car for a long time, and they wanted to find a place to rest.
Song He'er breathed a sigh of relief and agreed with their statement.
Because of the shortage of money on his body, and afraid that there would be the eyeliner of the county government nearby, he just chose a secluded broken temple to rest.
Zhang Xiu'e lit a torch, fetched water from the well, and boiled the millet porridge, but this was the last millet.
Chundi took out the cucumber and gave one to each person.
"This cucumber is more nutritious when eaten raw than fried."
"Why don't you scramble a cucumber and egg for the kids." Qin Xiaoniang said distressedly.
Sister Nian is very sensible and knows that eggs are hard-won things, and she can't eat them all at once, so she had to refuse: "I love to eat raw cucumbers." ”
Huahua on the side also seconded: "I also like to eat raw cucumbers." ”
Seeing that the children were so sensible, Song He'er was very pleased, took some eggs, washed them, put them in the pot, and cooked them with millet porridge.
"One cucumber per person, one egg per person, tomorrow in the city, we can use the money from selling fish to buy ten chickens, such a chicken has an egg every day, we can share an egg every two days!"
When Zhang Xiu'e heard that this idea was good, she quickly stood up and agreed: "He'er's idea is good, we still have about nine dollars left to sell fish, buy ten chickens and spend it consistently, and the rest can be kept, this is not a waste of money!" ”
"Then tomorrow we will go our separate ways, third aunt, you go to buy chickens, I will buy cloth for us, Tian Niangzi, Zhou Niangzi and two aunts will take care of the rest of the people in the same place."
"Okay."
"It's not getting early, let's go to bed quickly."
With that, everyone leaned under the Buddha statue and fell asleep......
In the early morning of the second day, Song He'er took the straw hat that Qin Xiaoniang knitted for her and went to the county seat with Zhang Xiu'e.
There are still those few shops selling cloth on the street, Song He'er ignored them and directly stopped a small businessman selling cloth.
The man is not tall, probably only about one meter six, but his face is very kind, and when he saw Song He'er, he smiled and asked carefully: "Does the girl need any help?" ”
"Shopkeeper, do you have a fabric business?"
"Girl, what you said, I'm just selling cloth, if I don't do the fabric business, can I do the bun business?"
Song He'er smiled: "I want clothes for twenty people!" ”
The man was obviously a little shocked, and confirmed to Song He'er again: "Twenty people? ”
"Yes, tell me how much is your better size, no matter what the price, as long as the goods are good." Song He'er deliberately raised her voice so that those who worshiped high and stepped on low could hear.
"Then please come with me to the house, and I will cut the size and give it to you."
"Okay."
Such a large amount of business envied the boss who opened a silk and satin village next to him.
Seeing that Song He'er was about to leave with the small trader, the owner of a silk village ran out after him, and said with a smile: "The girl wants to go to my house to have a look?" The ingredients at my house are really good! ”
Song He'er knew him, this was the snobbish thing yesterday.
"The boss is so forgetful, I went to your store yesterday, I remember that you didn't want to do this business with me yesterday, what? Have you changed your mind? ”
The boss smiled, as if he wanted to cover up the matter: "Look at my memory, didn't I joke with you yesterday?" Who wouldn't let such a big business go? ”
Seeing that he was becoming more and more attentive, the small trader next to him became impatient, and said directly: "Boss Zou! What do you mean by that? Grab business with others in the blue sky and daylight! ”
"I said, Xiao Mazi, who are you talking to, this is the uncle's freedom, the little girl can do business with whoever she wants, can you control it?"
Song He'er sneered, interrupted the conversation between the two, and then cast her eyes coldly on Boss Zou: "I'm sorry, I don't want to do business with you." ”
The boss of the silk village was angry and his face was blue and purple, and when he saw that his good words could not be persuaded, he wanted to use force to intimidate.
"Little girl, I'm afraid you don't know my ...... power"
When the small trader on the side saw that he was about to make a move, he immediately protected Song He'er behind him, "Although Shanyang is not at the foot of the Son of Heaven, but you are so rampant, are you not afraid that I will sue the government?" ”
"Sue the government?" Boss Zou suddenly laughed, and laughed sarcastically, "I am the leader of the silk industry in this Shanyang County, who buys the goods, from which house, and how much you enter, you have to let you nod, what kind of thing are you?" ”
"You?"
"Scared? If you know each other, get out of my way, don't get in my way here! ”
The peddler really had no choice but to blacken his eyes and pretend that nothing had happened, and no longer retaliate.
Boss Zou saw that the little trader was bluffed, so he walked to Song He'er's side again, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to do business with me?" ”
Song He'er turned her head and thought about it, starting with him in this public would definitely attract many onlookers, and maybe even alarm Qin Xiaoniang and them......
Why don't you go down the slope and have a salary at the bottom of the kettle?
Scold! Isn't she rich in silk and satin? See if she doesn't empty all his warehouses and bankrupt this bullying dog!
"Since Boss Zou is so sincere, then I have no choice but to be respectful and obey, but I have a request."
"What requirements?" Boss Zou asked.
"You've got to get me to go to your warehouse, and I want the real thing, not the scraps of your cabinet."
Boss Zou didn't think much about it, as long as there was money to earn, he would do everything, not to mention just taking someone to the warehouse to take a look at such a trivial matter, so naturally he agreed without thinking about it.
"Yes, no problem, please."
Song He'er smiled, turned around and took out a hundred yuan, and handed it to the small trader, "This is my apology to you." ”
"Girl, this ......"
"Take it, it's not easy to make a business at the Sunrise Labor Stall, who told me to break the contract, this is your compensation."
After that, Song He went to his silk village with Boss Zou.
Zou's silk is the largest silk village in the entire Shanyang City, employing no less than dozens of guys, it stands to reason that such a shop is not short of business, why do you have to snatch Song He'er's business from the hands of small traders today?
