Chapter 101: Poor Girl
Gu Xia was very dissatisfied with the shopkeeper's attitude, she was here to spend money, not to be angry. "I don't like Xianggong's mill, why don't we go to the mill opposite?"
"My daughter-in-law is right, buying things is to shop around, not to mention that we still buy a large number of stone mills, so naturally we have to choose well." Jiang Yi replied.
When the couple sang and harmonized, it was not good for the shopkeeper to regret it.
The shopkeeper listens to this is a big business, the kind that can't be touched once a year.
If he sold twenty stone mills at a time, he would make a lot of money. Three months' shop expenses are all gone.
"The two distinguished guests stayed, everything is easy to discuss, my family's mill is the largest in the county, and the stone mill is the most complete. I will give you a good introduction to the materials of different stone grinding. The two distinguished guests are not in a hurry to choose a good choice. The shopkeeper hurriedly stepped forward to block the two of them, with a look of enthusiasm and flattery.
The couple looked coldly at the shopkeeper who had changed before and after, and the two sides had a tacit understanding to bypass the shopkeeper and leave, ignoring him.
The shopkeeper was angry with the couple, and cursed a few words in his heart, but after calming down, he still didn't believe that these two people would buy twenty stone mills at one time.
The shopkeeper went out and stood at the door of the shop to watch the excitement, only to see that the couple really went to the mill opposite.
The shopkeeper of the mill enthusiastically introduced the couple to the material of the stone grinding in the shop.
"What's the price of this pale yellow granite grind?" Gu Xia asked in the middle of it.
"The female guest has a high vision, this stone mill is the most expensive in the mill, and it costs one or two silver." The shopkeeper replied with a smile.
"One or two, it's a little expensive, can it be cheap? I bought more. Gu Xia said.
"The rules of the women's mill are not negotiable, and the amount of money you buy is one or two." The shopkeeper also replied.
"This mill is not what the shopkeeper says, the rules are dead, and people are alive. We want to buy twenty stone mills, and the shopkeeper won't give them cheap, so we have to change mills. Anyway, there is more than just a mill in the county. After Gu Xia finished speaking, he pulled Jiang Yi and was about to leave.
The shopkeeper thought that the two of them would buy a few stone mills at most, but they didn't expect this to be a big business.
"Don't be in a hurry to leave, two distinguished guests, I really can't give you cheap stone mills, this is the rule of the mill. However, I can give you an extra stone mill for both of you. ”
"Why don't you just make up an even number of auspicious and consider giving two pieces of graphite?" Gu Xia asked back.
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, "......"
Whose even-numbered auspiciousness is used like this?
However, the shopkeeper struggled and compromised, and really sold twenty stone mills at one time, and he had not encountered it for several years.
His mill was not very large, and it was far worse than the other side.
He never dreamed that one day he would be able to sell twenty stone mills, which can be regarded as a pride.
Jiang Yi paid twenty taels of silver and got twenty-two stone mills.
The shopkeeper asked the man to help carry the stone mill, and the two of them drove the ox cart over, so they just took it home. I don't need to send it to the mill guys.
The shopkeeper on the opposite side saw that the man was busy moving the stone mill to the ox cart, and there were more than 20 pieces.
This can make the shopkeeper jealous and crazy, this big business should have been his.
His bowels are green with remorse, and the more he thinks about it, the more aggrieved he becomes, and he is afraid that he won't be able to sleep tonight.
Gu Xia and his wife came to the city to buy a stone mill this time, and they pulled a large cart of stone mills, so they didn't have time to wander around the city.
Instead of going home, the couple drove the ox cart directly to the tofu factory.
The workers were shocked to see the stone mills on the ox carts.
Later, they all reacted that the factory was so big that more than 50 people were employed, and they couldn't supply it without buying more stone mills.
I just don't know if I can sell all the bean curd or something?
After all, if you employ more than 50 people, how many soy products do you have to make in a day?
The people in the village only heard that the Jiang family cooperated with Fuxianglou, and all the bean curd was sent to Fuxianglou.
But even Fuxiang Building alone doesn't need more than 50 people to make tofu.
The Jiang family can't spend money on wrongs, they all think that they don't know what is going on?
And these workers worked only with money, and they were not concerned with the affairs of the Lord's house.
At this time, he was very discerning and went over to help carry the stone mill down from the ox cart.
The stone mill is very heavy, and it is a bit difficult for two strong men to carry one!
Gu Xia could easily be lifted down by one person, and when everyone saw this scene, their eyes almost fell to the ground in shock.
No one had ever told them that the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family had such great strength. Give them these men to be like waste.
Jiang Yi knew that his daughter-in-law was born with divine powers, and he was reluctant to do heavy work for his daughter-in-law. Quickly took over the stone mill in his daughter-in-law's hand. "Don't do it, daughter-in-law, there are so many big men here, you don't need a woman."
Jiang Yi's perennial martial arts practice is not small, and he can lift the stone mill alone.
Gu Xia was helpless, she wanted to exercise her body and lift a stone mill, but she didn't expect to make her family man nervous like this.
Jiang Yi took the lead and unloaded all the stone mills into the large courtyard of the factory.
There is an area dedicated to grinding tofu.
The stone mills on the ox carts were unloaded. The couple drove the ox cart home.
Aunt Gu counted Zhang Fang's total of eight people and newly fermented a large number of fermented bean curd stinky tofu, as long as there was kung fu, the eight of them were busy fermenting.
This is also what Gu Xia meant, and the eight of them all knew that the little couple went to Zhunnan to develop agents two days ago, and it was quite smooth.
It didn't take a few days for four agents to come and pick up the goods, no matter how many jars of fermented bean curd and stinky tofu came out, there was nothing left, but I was afraid that the eight people would be busy enough to choke and not enough to sell.
When Gu Xia came back, Aunt Gu had just finished catching her breath.
"It's been hard work for everyone in the past few days, and when the agent comes to pick up the goods, I will personally make a big table of good dishes to reward everyone." Gu Xia walked up to Aunt Gu and the others and said.
She has seen everyone's hard work in the past few days, and she has not been idle all day.
When Aunt Gu heard this, their hearts were warm, they had already heard that Gu Xia was good at cooking, but unfortunately they hadn't tasted it. Now they are blessed, and they are all looking forward to the day when they get up and eat at Jiang's house.
"Xiao Xia has something I don't know if I should tell you." Aunt Gu struggled for a while, but she still couldn't help but speak.
"Is there anything that Auntie can't say to me? Say it! Gu Xia hurriedly returned.
When Aunt Gu saw that she said this, she didn't hide it, "Xiao Xia, the eldest sister you married into the city and returned to her parents' house." I also brought two children back, I heard that your father and mother don't like your sister's two female dolls, and they instruct their mothers to work every day. The mother's life is very bad. On my way home last night, I met your sister's two girls, dressed in tatters. It's distressing. ”
Gu Xia listened to Aunt Gu's words and was touched in her heart.
