Chapter 284: Shopping spree
"Five rolls of bamboo leaf-patterned fine cotton cloth, ten rolls of dark-patterned silk satin, five rolls of plain silk satin, twenty rolls each of blue, green, and gray fine cotton cloth, and twenty rolls of coarse cloth..."
Lin Shu opened her little mouth and rattled off a long list of things.
With the Master, there was no point in keeping a low profile.
You can wear nicer clothes, but it’s better not to wear jewelry.
There are all kinds of headwear in the space, so you don’t need to spend money at all.
"..."
Mrs. Xu felt that she still had too little experience.
The young lady and the young master of the Lin family have been fleeing until now, and have been able to keep their gold, silver and treasures, so they are safe and sound.
It turns out that he is not an ordinary person either.
Feeling that bargaining carries a long-term responsibility, Mrs. Xu felt like she was getting energized.
He squatted down slightly and began the negotiations calmly.
"The shopkeeper's wife is truly a rare talent, beautiful and generous.
I wish the shopkeeper a prosperous business and good luck every day.
A harmonious family brings prosperity and all wishes come true. "
After all the compliments, Shopkeeper Hua felt a little embarrassed.
"Hehehe~, sister is really good at talking, sister likes it.
If you have anything to say, just speak up. Sister will never hesitate to do what she can do."
Shopkeeper Hua held Mrs. Xu's hand, which was a little rough from the long journey, and sighed.
"Sister, we women have to take care of ourselves, look at what your hands have become.
You have to take good care of yourself. My sister just happened to get a batch of hand creams, which are very effective. "
Mrs. Xu's expression was startled. She realized she had met a bargaining expert.
Want to lure her in.
【no way! 】
"I'm destined to be a country bumpkin, so I don't need those nice things.
We are talking about the fabric now. If Manager Hua is unwilling to give it up, then so be it.
We have limited time, so let’s go to other stores.”
Having said that, Mrs. Xu pulled Lin Shu out.
wink.
Lin Shu also blinked in understanding immediately; she was watching the show with great interest.
How long can their fake sisterhood last? Why did the situation suddenly change?
[Oh, it's rare for a good show to come on stage, let's start it quickly. ]
...
Shopkeeper Hua was stunned. Why did she speak so rudely?
I almost ruined the business that was delivered to my door.
He hurried forward and grabbed Mrs. Xu, smiling apologetically.
"Sister, I just said something wrong.
As an apology, we're giving you a 30% discount on all the fabrics you just quoted.
What do you think? We can talk if you need anything."
Shopkeeper Hua wanted to slap himself in the face. It turned out that talking too much was wrong.
When everyone heard the 30% discount, they were very satisfied.
They knew exactly what the prices of those fabrics were in Qingwei Town.
"My sister is a sensible person. It is not easy to live a perfect life in this world.
Who has the mood to do those beauty and skin care things?
Living is hard, being a woman is even harder." Mrs. Xu said maturely.
This left the owner of the manor, Manager Hua, stunned.
After learning from the painful experience, they took out another batch of goods from the previous year.
“These are from last year, so I can give them to you at a lower price.
Visiting relatives and giving gifts is absolutely fine.”
When a group of women see beautiful floral fabrics at a cheap price, how could they not be tempted?
After some impulse buying, my wallet was empty.
Each person had five or six pieces of cloth in front of him, or even more.
In front of Lin Shu, there was a small mountain of cloth and two large bags of measuring tape.
It is said to be the best thing for sewing clothes and making soles of shoes.
It just so happened that my family needed this the most, so I accepted it without hesitation.
Shopkeeper Hua smiled and asked someone to send the cloth back to the inn.
She stood at the door of the store and only quickly returned to the counter when she could no longer see her back.
Re-play the abacus.
"Hehe, this is a sure-win business."
Shopkeeper Hua, who hadn't tasted the joy of making money for a long time, was very satisfied.
...
The room was filled with purchased supplies, especially cloth.
When Lin Hongyi saw the man coming back, he looked gossipy.
"Shu'er, are you buying those pieces of cloth to sell?"
When he thought about the money coming in, Lin Hongyi felt less depressed.
This pile of cloth is worth at least a hundred taels of silver.
They are still fleeing!
"Brother, why do you have such an idea?" Lin Shu said somewhat confused.
The fabric is just discounted, not free.
How much can you earn by reselling it to the next county at a normal price?
It's really a thankless task.
“Brother, ten taels of silver per pound of wild boar meat is enough for one experience.
Special handling of special circumstances.
Thinking too much is just a waste of time.”
She also wants to make a lot of money, but she needs the opportunity to do so.
The right time, the right place and the right people are all essential.
"Oh, that's what Big Brother thought wrong.
Come and see, I bought you some snacks!"
Lin Hongyi ostentatiously took out fried peanuts, fried melon seeds, sugar beans, sugar cakes, and fried wild vegetable cakes.
Seeing all these delicacies, Lin Shu actually forgot about buying snacks.
He picked up a piece of each to taste, and fed them to his eldest brother, Chuntao and the two others, and everyone was happy.
I can't help but think of the crispy fried soybeans, which are hard to find in this situation.
It is rare to see related roasted snacks on the market.
...
"I bought the cloth to make new clothes for you.
Chuntao, there's no need to say thank you, you just have to do your part.
I still have to make some clothes for me, and as for my eldest brother and his family’s clothes, they will be made by Sister Xu.”
"Thank you for your love, cousin. I will learn needlework from Sister Xu."
Chuntao was seriously aware of her shortcomings in needlework and realized that it was impossible for her to learn from a famous teacher.
It would be great if Mrs. Xu could give me some advice.
...
Lin Shu drank a large cup of herbal tea and wiped the tea stains from the corners of her mouth.
Chuntao stood behind him swiftly and fanned herself, her heart filled with joy.
The little cousin said she wanted to make her own clothes, which means that she has treated her as a family member.
"Brother, let me tell you something." Lin Shu looked at the door and whispered.
"what's up."
“Master accepted me as his disciple, but I haven’t given him the apprenticeship gift yet.
I plan to make a few more sets of clothes for them, including silk, cotton, and coarse cloth.
Also, give some gifts to Master's subordinates."
Lin Shu told Lin Hongyi her plans one by one, and Lin Hongyi blushed.
These things should have been handled by him as the eldest brother.
But he never thought about it at all.
"Okay, whatever you want to do, I'll be with you."
“That makes sense, you can carry goods and run errands.
I will go and tell Master about this and see what he has to say."
Lin Shu threw her empty cloth bag to Chuntao.
When I went out, the two followed me naturally.
Qing Xiaotian’s guest room was right next door, and he could just shout his response with just one word.
"Master, here I come!"
Lin Shu stood at the door and heard no sound from inside, so she had to raise her voice.
"Come in, why are you so naughty to come back at this time?"
Qing Xiaotian saw someone appear and said with a smile.
"Master, we are going to fight in the cloth shop."
As soon as Lin Shu entered the room, she consciously filled her master's glass with herbal tea.
Pour yourself a cup and drink it down in one gulp.
"Girl, when will you learn to be more polite?
There are some snacks I bought for you in the paper bag. Tell Master after you finish eating them. "
"Okay, there are snacks to take. Today is a really good day."
Lin Shu climbed onto the big chair and sat down, telling the details of the battle in the fabric store.
The vivid language makes people feel as if they are there.
