029 First orders
As soon as there was a touch of fish belly white, Gu Qing's family had already gotten up, and they were going to the town after selling mushrooms today, and when they harvested mushrooms last night, they told the villagers that if they didn't come back at noon, they would all come over to sell mushrooms in the evening.
The chickens at home were also put two more meals of vegetable leaves by Gu Yu and Gu Nuo, and as soon as the mushroom door was locked after selling, several people rushed to the town.
Gu Jiang heard from his two children last night that Gu Qing's family did not collect mushrooms at noon and was going to the town, so they waited at the entrance of the village in the early morning.
Several people sat in the car, and from time to time locusts flew on their bodies, and the weeds on the side of the road were also gnawed and devastated.
"Yang Pei, are there many locusts in our fields?" Gu Qing never cared about things in the field, and she had never been in the field for so long.
"It's a lot more than in previous years," Yang Pei was also a little worried about the locusts: "Family master, I've thought about it, and as soon as the rice is ripe, a few of us will hurry up and get rid of the sickle." ”
Zhu Han also echoed: "This locust is very terrifying, if it appears in a large area, our harvest this year will be over!" ”
Gu Qing didn't speak, she was looking for customer service in the mall to ask how to get rid of locusts, and the customer service sent her three common measures to get rid of locusts:
1. In locust-stricken areas, high-efficiency and low-toxicity agricultural and biological pesticides can be used to protect the predatory natural enemies of locust areas. Or stocking chickens, ducks, geese and other poultry on the hillside for control.
2. Reduce the habitat of locusts, some locusts occur in relatively low terrain, and the plots can be transformed into ponds to raise fish and shrimp, so that the habitat of locusts can be greatly reduced.
3. Reduce the food source of locusts, many kinds of locusts eat corn, wheat, sorghum, rice, millet, etc., but do not eat soybeans, alfalfa, fruit trees, etc. Planting soybeans, alfalfa, fruit trees and other trees in locust areas can be effective in controlling locusts.
2 or 3 o'clock is too late, or buy medicine, buy chickens, ducks and geese more realistically.
When they arrived in Youshui Town, Gu Qing gave twenty taels of silver to the five people, and asked them to buy two pairs of shoes each, and then buy some chickens, ducks and geese, cubs, and adults, the more the better.
According to the agreement two days ago, he took the hand-painted album customized by the mall to the Zhou Mansion, and just arrived at the door of the Zhou Mansion, an old woman immediately greeted him.
"Oh, Mrs. Gu finally looked forward to you, my wife has come to ask a few times, hurry up, please inside!"
The mansion of the Zhou Mansion is built very well, the pavilions and pavilions, on both sides are the verandahs of the copyists, among which is the hall, and there is a large insert of red sandalwood shelf marble on the ground.
Turning the interstitial screen, there are three small halls, and behind the hall is the main courtyard at the back. The five upper rooms in the front are all carved beams and painted buildings, and the wings of the verandah through the mountains on both sides are hung with birds and birds such as parrots and thrushes. On the platform, there are four girls dressed in red and green.
As soon as Gu Qing entered the living room, more than a dozen girls in the seats swarmed around her.
"Don't worry, ladies and misses, I brought a picture album today, you can choose one by one, if you like, you can mark it on the rice paper, I will decide the construction period according to the complexity of the jewelry you set! There is a price tag at the bottom of each jewelry album, which is hand-made and non-negotiable! ”
These pictures are all jewelry pictures in the mall, and they are all in kind, but Gu Qing is talking about customization, so she can't and doesn't dare to take them all out at once.
Mrs. Zhou opened her eyes when she saw where the album was, "Okay, let's choose first, Xing'er will serve the lady well!" ”
Gu Qing sat on the chair, eating snacks and drinking tea, and was not in a hurry, waiting for Mrs. and Miss to finish picking it out, it was almost noon.
More than a dozen people, 20 hairpins were picked alone, as well as earrings, step shakes, bracelets, rings, large and small, Gu Qing was dazzled, thinking in her heart, how much money she had to make with so many things.
Gu Qing rearranged everyone's jewelry numbers and prices, 5 hairpins in Zhoufu, 10 earring rings, five bracelets.
The Zhao Mansion, the Song Mansion, and the Yao Mansion are no less than the Zhou Mansion. According to the charging standard of Yinlou, Gu Qing can earn more than 7,000 taels of silver for the jewelry of these houses!
More than 7,000 taels, sure enough, it is a woman's best money at any time!
There are many things, Gu Qing accepted a deposit of five hundred taels from everyone, and agreed to send the first batch of bracelets and rings with the simplest styles in seven days.
With these five hundred taels, you can buy that store directly, Gu Qing is in a good mood, and her steps are much blower after going out.
On the way out to find Yang Pei and a few people,
Gu Qing walked into the only grocery store in the town by the way, the things in the shop were quite complete, there were some antique porcelain bowls burned, it looked very good, she opened her mouth and asked, "Shopkeeper, how much is one?" ”
The shopkeeper glanced at the muslin shirt she was wearing, and said with a smile: "Thirty-five Wen." ”
Gu Qing: "......"
This is also too expensive, wouldn't it cost half a tael to buy ten bowls and spoons, and if you use these to open a store, it will invisibly increase the cost.
She retreated: "Is there a cheaper one?" ”
The shopkeeper's face collapsed instantly, and he pointed to the side and said lightly: "Here is the cheapest row in a row, one penny, choose whatever you want." ”
Gu Qing looked down, the tableware placed under this was all defective, either broken or ugly, a little bit stronger than the broken bowls at home.
She shook her head, turned and walked out of the shop.
The shopkeeper rolled his eyes behind her, dressed so well, expensive and unaffordable, cheap can't be looked down upon, who is it......
Gu Qing is confident.
She went around the alley and clicked on the mall, and there were all kinds of tableware on the floating panel, which was called a good look.
She chose a set of household utensils, and she had long wanted to change the bowls at home, and the gap was piercing.
A ten-inch large soup bowl, four eight-inch porcelain bowls and porcelain plates, eight white porcelain medium bowls, pink plum blossoms are reflected on the bowl surface, and eight spoons are matched, a total of only 400 Wen, and the quality of the mall is good, it is the kind of fall-resistant type, and it is no problem to fall once or twice.
"Head of the house!" Mo Li saw Gu Qing coming out of the alley at a glance, and he knew that there were a lot of things in the back basket by looking at the tightened shoulder straps on both sides of her.
"The head of the house will carry the basket to me!" Mo Li skillfully took off Gu Qing's back basket and put it on his back, "Family master, we have bought all the things, and all the chickens and ducks are put on Uncle Gu's ox cart, where are we going now?" ”
Gu Qing waved his small hand and pointed in the direction of Yunshan Academy, "Naturally, I went to Yunshan Street and bought a shop!" ”
"Buying a shop? Didn't you say rent? Zhu Han asked.
"Did I talk about renting before? You must be misremembering, I always said buy! ”
Gu Qing's eyes were a little evasive, and she quietly pulled Mo Li, who was standing next to her: "Yes, Mo Li!" ”
Mo Xuan comprehended: "Yes, yes, the head of the family has always said that he is buying, you see what your memory is!" ”
Yang Pei saw the cooperation of the two in his eyes, and was a little funny: "It's not too early, since you want to buy a shop, let's leave quickly!" ”
"Will you bargain? I always think 800 taels is a bit expensive! But she didn't know what the price of the shops in Dark Water Town was.
Yang Pei said with a smile: "Don't worry, master, we all inquired when we went shopping just now, the shop is at most five hundred taels, and we will bargain in a while, don't be that wrong!" ”
"That's fine!" Gu Qing took out the 500 taels of silver tickets given by Mrs. Zhou, "I'll leave this matter to you!" ”
Several people watched Gu Qing take out so many silver tickets, and their hearts jumped, they knew that it was very profitable to collect mushrooms at home, but they definitely couldn't make so much silver.
Several people glanced at each other, but they did not speak in tacit understanding, and even Gu Yu and Gu Nuo did not ask questions.
