92 do what you can

Chen Shan also felt right when he heard his daughter-in-law's words, "You go to your mother to get the title." ”

The five of them worked fast, loaded a cart of corn, "Boss, two children, you bring our family." ”

Chen Shan nodded, the girl went to sell food for herself, and it was not convenient to take the child.

"Big brother, it's okay, I'll just take the two of them with me."

If you know how many catties you have, just put them away and give them money back.

The town was going to go and buy cotton and cloth. I also have to go to the grain store to ask about the price, for fear that I will give less, because I really don't want to be angry with this money.

It's an hour to get to town. The grain had been put away halfway, so she went directly to the grain store, asked about the purchase price, and bought some rhubarb rice, but she still didn't have this kind of grain.

Chen Miao thought that if she wanted to buy cotton, she should go to the cloth village. The donkey cart stopped outside, tethered and went inside. She was a little anxious, because she was afraid that the donkey cart would be lost.

"Shopkeeper, how do you sell cotton?"

The shopkeeper looked at the woman who came in, and felt that he would not buy too much, and his attitude was average, and the price was not low.

"Shopkeeper, I want to buy more, can it be cheaper?"

"Buy more? How much do you want to buy? "In the winter, the best thing to sell is cotton, and although everyone buys a little bit, there are many people who buy it.

"A hundred pounds will do."

"A hundred pounds? Do you know how much a hundred pounds is? ”

"Boss, you give me a real price, and if it's suitable, I'll buy more."

The shopkeeper looked at Chen Miao, who was tightly wrapped, and said the price. If you really want it, you can still buy it yourself. I can make a lot of money this year.

"What about cotton? I want the sturdiest one, and you can show it to me. ”

She really doesn't know how to make cloth, but there should be nothing wrong with asking for sturdy.

The shopkeeper brought over a piece of cloth, "Look, this is the latest technology, it's a new technology from a foreign country, you can see it yourself." ”

"Shopkeeper, isn't this cloth shrinking?"

"It's a little shrunk, but it's a lot less than our homespun shrinkage. I've got a piece of cloth here, you can try it. ”

Chen Miao was not polite, washed the cloth with water, wrung it out and compared it, and there was very little shrinkage.

The two of them discussed the price, "Shopkeeper, I want more, this hundred catties of cotton can make about forty cotton clothes, and I want to match it with the corresponding cloth." ”

The shopkeeper, who has been working in the cloth village all his life, heard that two and a half catties of cotton clothes were made, and he knew that this was making clothes for adult men, and he had a conjecture in his heart.

This is the people of the team? Although he is a small businessman, he also has patriotic thoughts.

"Girl, you will lose three cents for a pound of cotton, and you will give me twenty cents and one foot for cloth."

Chen Miao looked at this shopkeeper, and was a little moved in his heart, in fact, everyone has patriotic thoughts, this is a transparent person, he just explained how much, and people probably guessed the purpose.

"Thank you, boss, you can give me an answer. How many to have. ”

The shopkeeper's heart was steady, and he called Xiao Er to prepare.

This time, Chen Miao spent seventy-six yuan here. The shopkeeper also gave a piece of silk, in fact, there are not many such fabrics in his cloth village, and there are not many rich people in the town, and his cloth village is not big.

Chen Miao bought needlework and thread, and it was worry-free to buy it together.

"Girl, I'll take you out in a car."

Chen Miao's heart was even more moved. Still thinking about how to get out, after all, so many supplies are really afraid of being detained in the car?

"Thank you, I still need it, the shopkeeper can be ready in a few days."

"Five days."

"Okay, I'll come and pull it in five days." Chen Miao said, took out five yuan and handed it over, "This is a deposit." ”

"No, you don't." The shopkeeper shook his head.

"No, let's put it away, buying and selling is buying and selling, and the shopkeeper is very good."

The donkey cart went out of town, and the shopkeeper got off. "Girl, be careful."

"The shopkeeper can rest assured."

No one asked for the other's name, which is also a protective mentality.

After about a quarter of an hour of walking out, Chen Miao put away all the cotton and cloth, afraid of encountering something along the way, but he didn't want any accidents.

The two children were also released, they wore a lot, and they were not afraid of the cold, and the three mothers were wearing masks and hats and gloves, which was really good.

It was safe along the way, and I didn't run into a few people. He was about to enter the village and released all the cotton and cloth. The people in the village knew that it didn't matter, and asked them to come over and help make cotton clothes.

The children in the village chased the donkey cart, and there were also sensible ones, "Third aunt, why did you bring back so much cloth?" ”

"Make cotton clothes." Chen Miao patiently answered the children's questions.

"Qiangzi, you go to my eldest brother's house and call him over."

Hadron snorted and ran away.

Rushed into the yard and had not yet unloaded the car, and Chen Shan and his family arrived. They also heard that Chen Miao came back and pulled a lot of things.

After entering the yard, I looked at the cloth bag on the car, which should be cotton, "Three girls, what are you?" ”

"Make cotton clothes for the team. You bought three dollars and sixty-three cents for your corn. After speaking, he took out the money and handed it to her eldest brother.

Chen Shan did not answer. "You go back and get thirty-seven copper coins, give three girls three yuan and one hundred copper coins this year, and pay off two yuan and two hundred wen next year."

Yang Yuemei hummed and left.

Chen Shan helped carry the cloth inside. "You buy so much?"

"If it's not enough, you can do as much as you can." It's all put on the kang in Westinghouse, and it's really a lot.

"Ming, let your sister-in-law and Xiaoyan come over and follow you to make cotton clothes."

There are not many people who can do it, and when the eldest brother still wants to help the sister, just work, then there is no problem.

"Well, it's not much for three cents a day."

"The family doesn't have to give money."

"Big brother, if I give money to outsiders, I won't lose my family. Let my sister-in-law come over tomorrow. ”

Yang Yuemei came in and happened to hear this, she put the thirty-seven texts on the kang, "Three girls, you count." ”

"Hmm. Sister-in-law, start making cotton clothes from tomorrow, give three cents a day, your needlework is very good, come and work. ”

It's too chaotic to come to your own house, but it's not okay, I don't want to test my character, I'm still at home, and the two rooms are working very fast, if I really can't let go, I'll ask Shen Wufu for a while, and arrange a wave of people at his house.

"Give the money back?" Yang Yuemei is so excited, there is not much money, but they have no place to make money, and they still make cotton clothes for the team, even if they don't give money, they have to help work.

"Well, if you think about who's good at it, call a few people over, you have to hurry. It's getting colder day by day, so hurry up and make it and send it over. ”

"Okay, I see." This is a good thing to be popular. What woman doesn't know how to do needlework? Staying now is also waiting.

"Three girls, where is the lining of the cotton clothes?"

"The lining is ordinary cotton cloth, I bought it on the set, sister-in-law, should the cloth be washed again? Shrinkage of the province? ”
