Chapter 38: Buying a Quilt
Leaving the inn, Gu Jiujiu looked at the six hundred coins given to her by the merchants of Cangyi Country in her hand, and couldn't help but hook her lips slightly.
The herbs were sold for sixty yuan, plus the current six hundred yuan, well, there is still thirty copper plates left for seven hundred yuan.
The uncle who pulled the ox cart said that he was still waiting at the market entrance to see them back three hours later, and it was still early, so Gu Jiujiu decided to go to the market to buy something first.
The quilts used in their thatched huts were not only very shabby, but also had a strong smell of mold, and it was time to replace them.
Before, they had no money in their hands, so they had to make do with it. Now, since she unexpectedly gained 600 yuan, then they don't have to be wronged to continue to use that quilt again.
Finding the largest cloth shop in the bazaar, she prepares to buy three new quilts and go back. She has one bed, and Yan and Brother Yan also have one bed each.
When the shopkeeper of the cloth shop saw Gu Jiujiu, he immediately laughed, "Little lady, I don't know what you need?" ”
"I want some quilts!" Gu Jiujiu looked at the shopkeeper and directly said what he needed.
"Exactly!" After listening to Gu Jiujiu's words, the shopkeeper pointed to the brightly colored quilt placed on the counter, "These are my new entrants, little lady, see if there is anything you like." ”
Gu Jiujiu looked at it lightly and felt that the lotus-colored quilt was not bad, so he walked over and touched it with his hand.
It's soft and smooth to the touch. Gu Jiujiu secretly thought that this quilt must be comfortable to use, and smiled, she looked at the shopkeeper and said, "I want three quilts, I want lotus lotus color, tender yellow, you can wrap it for me!" ”
"Okay, little lady, wait a minute!" After speaking, the shopkeeper quickly wrapped the three-bed quilt that Gu Jiujiu wanted for her.
Gu Jiujiu took the quilt from the shopkeeper's hand, and then asked, "Shopkeeper, I don't know how much silver money is needed for these quilts?" ”
"It takes a total of 90 cents!" The shopkeeper looked at Gu Jiujiu and explained a few words simply, "Little lady, these are all good quilts, not only the cloth used is excellent, but the cotton stuffed in them is also good cotton, so this price is naturally more expensive than ordinary ones!" ”
"I don't know how much an ordinary quilt costs?" After listening to the shopkeeper's words, Gu Jiujiu asked subconsciously.
"Ordinary quilts are fifteen or twenty cents a bed!" Seeing Gu Jiujiu asking, the shopkeeper told her the price.
I secretly thought that this price was only ten cents more expensive than the ordinary one, and it was not too expensive. Without asking anything else, Gu Jiujiu took out ninety dollars and gave it to the shopkeeper, took the quilt and left the cloth shop.
"Little lady, you go slowly!" The shopkeeper put the money in his arms and said with a smile while looking at Gu Jiujiu.
After buying a quilt, Gu Jiujiu didn't plan to buy anything more, but thinking that there was only a small handful of rice left after the Yan family bought last time. So, she was going to go to the rice shop and buy some good rice.
There are many rice shops in the bazaar, and you can see them everywhere. Gu Jiujiu didn't need to ask, he casually found a rice shop that didn't look big and walked in.
Two copper plates of rice are one catty, and Gu Jiujiu weighed thirty catties. When buying rice, Gu Jiujiu saw that there was still fresh flour in the shop, and after hesitating for a moment, she bought another twenty catties of flour.
Going out of the rice shop, Gu Jiujiu spent another hundred copper plates!
After buying all the things he needed, and looking like it was almost noon, Gu Jiujiu prepared to take the ox cart in the village to go back.
