677 Black-Hearted Merchant
Since the other party has said this, Su Qingluan also understands that the next thing is not something that he and an "outsider" like Yaoguang can ask about.
When Su Qingluan arrived at the door of "Su Ji", there was already a long queue at the gate.
However, when Su Qingluan drove to the tail of the line at the door of the carriage, he found that there were no new products on the market in the store. It's the guy inside the store who is handing out numbered plates.
Su Qingluan didn't know why, and turned to look at Yan Min: "May I ask what the number plate means?" ”
"It's used to grab jam."
"Jam?" Su Qingluan raised his eyebrows.
"Su Niangzi has just arrived, I'm afraid I don't understand the joints," Yan Min looked at Su Qingluan and explained, "This hollow golden silk nanmu license plate costs twenty taels of gold a piece, a total of ten yuan, and with such a license plate, you will definitely be able to get a new set of jam; The mahogany number plate costs five taels of gold, such a number plate has thirty pieces, and sometimes the first ten golden silk nanmu brands are taken by a family with three or four sets, and there may be a situation where the mahogany number plate can not be grabbed behind, but it is relatively rare. ”
When Yan Niangzi said this, she also carefully explained to Su Qingluan, after all, although many families send handmaids to buy, but those who can do this kind of work are personal handmaids or housekeepers, and the social circle in the capital is so big, and there are a number of personal handmaidens in whom's family.
In this way, whoever buys how much jam every day, as long as you have the heart to ask, you can know.
If you buy too many sets at one time, it is not the kind of New Year's holiday or the birthday of the elders in the family, you don't need to make a big deal, so if you buy too much, you will inevitably be laughed at - no matter how good the jam tastes, after all, it is just food. If you are too greedy, it is difficult to retain the reputation of "gluttony", which is not a good thing for any female dependent.
Of course, there are strange things everywhere, and it is not without the kind of people who completely disregard their reputation and let people pay attention to it in order to eat for a bite.
However, probably because he felt that it was also rude to pay attention to others behind his back, Yan Min did not say who were those who "didn't care about their reputation".
Su Qingluan wasn't really interested in these parents, so he didn't continue to ask. As for Yaoguang, Su Qingluan hadn't seen her interested in anything other than eating and sleeping so far, so she basically acted as a background board all the time.
Obviously, she looks quite beautiful, and she is also a beauty when you look closely, but if Yaoguang wants to, she can not attract anyone's attention - even after Yan Min was helped down by Xia Ying from the carriage, he thought that Yaoguang was lost for a moment.
Su Qingluan said in his heart, could this be one of the "training results" of the dark guard? I want to wait until I go back and ask Yaoguang.
But right now, there is another thing that attracts Su Qingluan even more. She quietly leaned over to Yan Min and asked, "But I see these people, the brand they came to line up for is neither golden silk nanmu nor mahogany?" Su Qingluan naturally didn't know any golden silk nanmu, but she recognized the mahogany.
However, these people in front of her were only holding the same wooden number plate, and even if she hadn't seen it, she knew that it was very expensive. And expensive wood has a texture that cheap wood can't match.
But the wooden cards of these people in front of him were visible to the naked eye cheap, and Su Qingluan saw that the price they paid was one or two gold.
Su Qingluan looked at Yan Min: "Do you want to line up by yourself?" By this moment they had disembarked from the carriage, and the coachman went to park the carriage at another special place.
Yan Min smiled and shook his head: "I let Xia Ying go, but this time it was too late, and I didn't have time to catch up with the mahogany number plate, so I could only try my luck and take a beech card first." ”
"What, what does the beech brand say?" Su Qingluan took Yaoguang and Yan Min and asked slowly in a shady position on the other side of the street.
"Although there are occasional times when you can't get the jam, in the end, everyone looks up and doesn't look down, and rarely does things absolutely, so you can usually pick at least one set or a jar of jam - of course, it is the golden silk nanmu brand that picks the leftovers, not necessarily the one you like the most. But the beech brand is different. ”
Saying that, Yan Min sighed: "The jam on this brand is only a few bottles of jam on the wheel, so nine times out of ten, I can't grab the jam." ”
Su Qingluan raised his eyebrows: "But I see that there are a lot of beech brands here!" Although it is not to the level of "rotten street", Su Qingluan looked at it, there are still one hundred and eighty people.
"There's no way around it...... Who made Su Ji's jam every time really delicious, even if there was a substitute, it would be inferior by three points after all? Speaking of this, Yan Min sighed softly, "The store stipulates that if you don't grab the wooden brand, you won't even have the qualifications to buy jam." ”
When Su Qingluan heard the first half of Yan Min's words, she was still a little smelly, after all, she was the complete inventor of the jam recipe, and the finished jam was also the result of the efforts of the employees led by her.
His hard work has been sincerely praised by others, and the other party does not know the relationship between himself and "Su Ji", so this praise must not have added any water.
However, before Su Qingluan was stinky and beautiful enough, Yan Min's words in the second half made her angry, so she immediately said coldly: "Why haven't I heard of the bullshit rule that you must buy wooden cards?" ”
Su Qingluan's reaction was so strange that Yan Min looked up at her. At this time, Yaoguang stepped forward and patted Su Qingluan's shoulder gently: "Cousin-in-law, don't be so angry, if you go to buy jam, these two gold should be able to deduct the price, right?" ”
Interrupted by Yaoguang like this, Su Qingluan also regained his composure, and said secretly in his heart: Maybe there is a secret? She must not mess with herself.
Thinking so, Su Qingluan also looked at Yan Min.
Yaoguang's speculation is very common sense - after all, even the cheapest beech brand costs one or two gold. Although in the capital city where rich and noble families are everywhere, one or two gold is really not enough for high-ranking families, but in fairness, this price is not a small amount.
Even if it is a big family, the monthly money of the big girl is only one or two taels of silver, and this two gold is worth most of their salary for half a year.
And this is considered a "high-paying" profession. More people can only earn three or five taels of silver all year round - after all, the vast majority of families are still ordinary people.
Unexpectedly, Su Qingluan and Yaoguang still underestimated the shamelessness of the black-hearted businessman, Yan Min shook his head under the gaze of the two: "Whether you can buy jam in the end or not, or whether it is the one you like, the money for buying the brand is considered a 'deposit', the brands of golden silk nanmu and mahogany should be recycled, and the beech wood ones don't need - that thing doesn't have a lot of money." ”
After all, beech wood is a common furniture material in ordinary people's homes, and it can't be too expensive.
Su Qingluan and Yaoguang gasped when they heard this: This is too dark!
