"How much does it cost?"

Xia Qingqing smiled confidently, "The cost is less than one or two silver, the price of gold is already low, the clavicle chain is thin and soft, and it will break if it is pulled vigorously, and the skill will leave traces in the exquisite master's repair, so it can only be rebuilt." ”

"When they figure out the details, we will already push the new model, as long as the new model comes out quickly, the nobles of the family buy more, and it is useless for anyone who wants to copy and imitate us."

The fourth sister-in-law was amazed by the picture she depicted, "As long as we keep this clavicle chain selling well, we can completely copy this selling method, and the silver will continue to come!" ”

"Yes," Xia Qingqing affectionately put her arm on the arm of the fourth sister-in-law, "After the launch of the jewelry, we are regularly holding banquets in the name of tea tasting, flower appreciation, etc., all of whom go to the banquet are noblewomen, and there will definitely be a comparison heart. ”

The fourth sister-in-law said softly, "You are simply a walking gold ingot, how do you have such a little head?" ”

Xia Qingqing took the opportunity to say: "Fourth sister-in-law, you know everything about the in-laws of the Jingzhong family, why don't you leave the matter of organizing a banquet to you, and we will divide all the revenue!" ”

"You little man, sister-in-law, can I still covet your little silver? My mother's brother Lin Qing came to our house the first time, and your brother Lin also has many fields and shops under his hands. has a capable person who does business, and I will borrow a few big shopkeepers from him at that time. Implement your ideas one by one. ”

"At the moment, you just think about where the shop is open and what the name of the store is!"

"Sister-in-law, my good sister-in-law, no matter how big the shopkeeper can bring, we must also have a general who leads the troops to fight, right? After me, I may have to get married, so these things can't marry the third prince with me, right? You still have to stay in our house, you're the most suitable person. ”

"The location of the store must be found in the street with a large flow of people, this has to be bothered by Brother Lin, the name of the store I plan to call Bai Yutang, taken from the "Jade Pearl Tent, Mandarin Duck Bai Yutang." ”

"Okay, you're a ghost, you've figured everything out! I said, how did you keep asking Xiaolan to bring me food during this time? So you're waiting for me here? Well, I'll take charge for you for a while. It's okay to wait until you meet the right person and give it to her. ”

"I knew my sister-in-law was the best for me."

"Miss, let's get to Kuanzhai Alley." Xia Qingqing got out of the carriage with Xiaoqing's support.

"The reason why this alley is named Kuanzhai Lane is because it is the busiest street in front of it, and many food stall owners set up stalls in front of it. And there's a dead end behind that. The shops on both sides of the narrow road are mostly rouge gouache. ”

"Due to the inconvenience of roads, many shops are also facing closure."

"Okay, let's walk around first."

I saw that the people who walked into this street were very targeted, and after choosing a shop, they left with their things in a short time, and there were not many people hanging out.

"Behind this alley is a wide avenue, but if you want to enter this path, you have to go around a big circle. So there are not many people on this road. Xiaoqing explained on the side.

"The shops are old, the windows are painted, and there are more than a dozen shops in such a short road. The rent is very cheap to think about. ”

"It's Miss, the brother of the fourth sister-in-law, Lin Qinggongzi, sent a message that the rent of the shop here is only ten taels of silver a year. That's why a lot of stall owners have built their shops here just to be a place to stay. The money-making business is all on the street ahead. ”

Not long after, the group walked back from the small alley, Xia Qingqing tasted the pastries in the carriage and said: "The pastries made by Xiaolan are getting better and better!" ”

Xiaolan smiled shyly on the side, "It's all Miss, you give good advice." ”

"It's so humble, it's obvious that you have added a lot of new ideas yourself. Let's just talk about this filling, I often eat mooncakes with five-kernel filling. Five-kernel stuffed rice balls are quite rare, and they are eaten dry. I want to come to the pastry shop over there of the three princes, and the income is quite considerable. ”

Xiaoqing immediately replied, "The third prince is every ten years, and the account book is sent once, and in just ten days, we can do thousands of taels." ”

Every time the shopkeeper came over, he smiled so much that he wanted to squeeze his face into a chrysanthemum. He always asks if there are any new products, as long as the little guy spreads the word that there are new pastries, he will not be able to come to our house in three quarters of an hour. Every time we sweat profusely, for fear that we will run slower, we give the new product to others. It can be seen that the profits here are huge. ”

"As long as the business is good, that's it, and the rest is harmless."

"Isn't it true that Miss just takes this business back into our own hands and makes more money?"

Everyone knows that making snacks makes money, and the low unit price of this pastry is a daily consumable. It's just that after a long time, there should be a short-sighted search. Relying on the big tree of the Three Princes behind us, we only take money and don't need directors, which is the best. ”

What Xia Qingqing didn't say was that she could start with inconspicuous little things in order to be tied to the same boat with the three princes, what she had to do was to make the little things to the extreme and be inseparable, after all, only having common interests are friends.

Only by advancing and retreating together can the three princes really take her safety to heart, otherwise they may be implicated in their families one day in the current undercurrent situation in Beijing.

Back in the house, Xia Qingqing went to find the fourth sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, I took a fancy to the wide and narrow alley, bought all the shops in the alley, demolished the wall at the end and opened up the main road, and planned it into two parts, namely the expensive area and the flat area, separated by a teahouse in the middle, the young lady and the lady are naturally shopping for the expensive price, so the decoration inside should be extremely luxurious, don't be afraid of spending silver, the main building of Baiyutang should be built magnificently, and the lobby signboard must be mentioned by a respected master." ”

"The first floor should be decorated with flowers every day, put a few more mirrors, use screens to make a compartment for people to try on, the second and third floors, make a private room, specially receive nobles, make jewelry into a picture album and choose at will, if you are happy, just summon the little two."

Xia Qingqing said word by word.

"Look, you're sweating profusely, and you're not in a hurry at this time, sit down and have a cup of tea."

The maid had just poured the tea to the brim. Xia Qingqing picked up the tea bowl and drank it all, "Time is not waiting for me, I am so anxious when I imagine that we have silver coming in every day." ”

"No matter how anxious you are, you have to do the same, as far as the master you said mentioned the word, there is a suitable candidate in my heart, I think I will let my grandfather go out!"

"That's definitely not appropriate, grandfather's word is good, but it's not top-notch, the emperor's word is really good, but the emperor's ink treasure is too hard to find. The ink treasure of Master Puhua of Foguang Temple is still famous in the world. ”

"Speaking of this Foguang Temple, it can only be to invite my grandfather to come out. He has a bit of friendship with this Puhua master, and when he writes a letter, it should be okay for the two of us to go with the letter. ”

"Okay, then it's decided, I'll go to my grandfather tomorrow."

"Don't be busy leaving, the martial arts arena in the backyard has been sorted out, when are you going to invite the princesses over?"

"Speaking of which, I've been busy looking at the shops for the past two days, and I haven't seen the ice cars and skates made by the craftsmen."

"Then I'll go with you to have a look."

The two got up together and came to the backyard, only to see that the original martial arts arena had been bulldozed, all paved with marble, the ground was smooth and tidy, and a pavilion was set up on the side for people to rest, all the weapons were put away, and ice cars and other objects were placed in the place.

The craftsmen were banging and beating, and the leader saw the two of them hurriedly stepping forward and said, "The little one is two nobles. ”

"No need to be polite, just stand up and talk."

"Yes, noble man, please see that this ice car has been improved and completed, the early ice car evolved from the northern snow climbing plow, the material is mostly wooden planks and wooden squares and ice blades, ice blades are good and bad. Equipped with a pair of ice ties with large steel nails nailed with a log pole and sharpened with the steel nail heads, this set of ice cars is ready. ”

"Now, we have made improvements, using fine wood carvings, and building small stools on wooden planks about half a foot wide, so that the nobles can sit on them more stretched, and prevent the car from overturning when the body swings back and forth. Two wooden strips about half a foot long and about an inch wide were used to connect the skates, which greatly reduced the weight of the ice car. ”

"It's so that you can glide on the ice without any effort, and you can slide far and smoothly."

"Bingga!"

"Sister-in-law, when the time comes, we will compete to see who spins for a long time and whose Bingga is beautiful!"

The craftsman's detailed narration also aroused Xia Qingqing's fun, "After the ice surface is built, I want to be the first to play, sister-in-law, you are too powerful, that's what I said, you can do this thing so well." ”

"Hey, don't praise me, this is my grandfather's idea, you put it up that day and just let it go, or my grandfather thought that when he led the army to the north that year, he saw those ice carts and ice cars and other things that the children smoked on the ice in the northern winter, and found craftsmen to make them, so that you can see these things now."

"Yes, yes, my grandfather is the best to Qingqing, my sister-in-law is good to Qingqing, you are all good to Qingqing, today I have your lovers, I am the happiest person in the world."

"Flamboyant little slippery head, I won't eat your set, keep it and coquettish with my grandfather!"

"Sister-in-law, this ice is ready-made, just dig it from the cold storage, and the ice truck is also ready, why don't we try it tomorrow."

The fourth sister-in-law looked at her helplessly, "Listen to the wind is the rain, do as you say." ”

Xia Qingqing stuck out her tongue mischievously and continued to ask, "Grandfather, when are you coming back today?"

"Grandfather went to the camp in the western suburbs to train today, so it must not be so early."

"Alright, I'll go back and change my clothes first, and I'll go to find my grandfather later."
