Chapter 452 Shop Around
Shopkeeper Liang brought coarse linen.He ordered the waiter to spread a purple-green linen on the table. "It's fifty yam braid. It's stiff, but it's really thick and durable."

Su Yunman touched it with her hand and nodded.Shopkeeper Liang is right.The cloth is thick enough, but really stiff.

Shopkeeper Liang asked someone to put this batch away, and opened another batch of rags.

"This cloth isn't as thick as the previous one, but it's actually a good linen. It's only ruined when it's dyed. It might get brittle after a few years in storage, but it's very cheap."

Su Yunman went up to take a look.Cyan is not the same as before.Comes in some metallic shades.Where it is dyed it looks sacred, but where it is not, it is mottled.

Jojo also came over to take a look.She thought the stained area was very beautiful.She glanced at the shopkeeper and pointed to the stained area. "Is there any stained place?"

"Our master wanted to make this batch of cloth, but failed several times. He left more than 50 pieces of this cloth, but none of them succeeded." Shopkeeper Liang forced a smile.

"Hmm..." Jojo felt a little regretful.She felt that the color matched Qingxian brother's complexion very well.

The third cloth was rust-colored linen, not as thick as the first.Shopkeeper Liang took it out because he thought the color looked good on the old man.

Su Yunman felt that shopkeeper Liang was really considerate.

The fourth and fifth are dyed cloths, and the sixth is fine linen.It's just that they have been in the warehouse for too long, and some insect eyes cannot be sold.

Su Yunman inquired about the price and quantity of the inventory in detail, and wrote them down in a notebook.

"Shopkeeper Liang is very considerate. I wrote it all down. When I get the pieces and yards I need, I will come to the store to discuss with you."

Su Yunman's words are beautiful.In fact, she has two or three stores to go to and she has learned to shop around.

Su Yunman also took notes on the remaining two or three stores.One of them is a clothing store that also offers discounts when clothes are made.The other has cotton in stock, but the price is indeed a bit expensive.

After saving money on rice, Su Yunman has more money to spend on good clothes.She thought that in addition to cotton clothes and trousers, she could also make some cotton shoes and cotton hats for them.

Under the introduction of the shop owner, Su Yunman came to a small shop specializing in shoes.

The store is located in the northern city.Most of the shoemakers in the shop are military families.They are received by a straightforward sister-in-law named Hua Sao.

When she heard that more than 200 pairs of shoes were to be customized, her face burst into a smile.She showed Su Yunman a pair of neatly arranged shoe soles from the waiting table. "Miss, look at the soles of our shoes. They are so thick."

Although Su Yunman didn't know much about these things, she also knew that the soles of her shoes were thicker than those she wore.

"The masters in our workshop all live in the military camps in the north, but these thin soles are really unbearable." Then she picked up an unfinished shoe sole from behind to show them. "All the soles we make are thick and glued together with layers of rags and straw paper. This pair lasts seven days."

Su Yunman was quite satisfied with the thickness of the sole, but she was stunned again. "Then make 200 pairs..."

"Don't worry, it's the end of the new year. We don't have much work here. We urge the sisters to work overtime. We won't delay your use." When Mrs. Hua heard that she was going to be sent to the nursery, she became more enthusiastic about the sisters. . "We will also pay attention to the non-slip bottom you mentioned. When the time comes, we will sew a few times with thick thread on the sole, but we can't let the old man who wears our shoes fall off."
