Chapter 53 Selling Umbrellas

That kind of thing has never happened to the shopkeeper.Medical career

After thinking about it, his family's umbrella has also been in for a long time, and they haven't sold a few of them.

Rich and noble families do not like to go out on rainy days, and ordinary people and servants of wealthy families who go out wear coir raincoats.This umbrella has been in his house for a while, but he hasn't sold a few.They are all placed in the corners to generate dust.

If Mrs. Qiao can sell the umbrella, he can also make some money.Originally, there was no business on rainy days, so if we could sell some umbrellas, it would be an income to some extent.

After thinking it over clearly, he said to Qiao Mingjin: "I won't take your money first, you can sell it first, and get it back if you sell the leftovers. After you sell the money, we will settle the settlement. You just pay 25 Wen Give me the money, and if you sell it at a high price, it will be yours."

Qiao Mingjin was overjoyed when she heard that, and glanced at the people at the door who had taken shelter from the rain in this small grocery store like her, and found that they didn't pay attention to what she said to the shopkeeper.Maybe it was raining too loudly.

Then they dragged Mingheng and Mingyu in and discussed quietly.

This kind of thing can't be heard by people, let people get a share, and the sisters don't have soup to drink.

Soon the sisters and the other sisters discussed it. Qiao Mingjin took Mingyu to the wine shop to sell it, and Mingheng led Mingqi to sell it along the street.

Wine shops sell at a higher price, and I am afraid that some people will buy it for 35 yuan, but it sells for [-] yuan along the street.

After the four of them discussed it, they took out all the umbrellas placed in Shopkeeper Wen's shop.The shopkeeper Wen saw that the four of them had only divided three or four bundles each, so he hurried into the warehouse behind and brought out a large bundle.

Qiao Mingjin divided each of them into twenty sticks.In the end, there were ten more, and she and Ming Yu took them with them.

"Mother, mother, Wan'er is going too! Going to sell umbrellas!"

Seeing everyone discussing together, Xiao Wan'er seemed to have nothing to do with her, hurry up!He held on to Qiao Mingjin's sleeve tightly.

Qiao Mingjin watched her daughter looking up at her with her small face upturned. Her big eyes were watery, and she just stared at her with her small face upturned, like an abandoned puppy.

His heart softened, and he said: "Okay, Wan'er will also go to sell umbrellas with Mother."

The shopkeeper Wen was listening and said: "Little lady, you can leave Wan'er with me. It's raining heavily outside. If you get wet, you may also get sick. Don't worry, I will take care of her for you. "

Qiao Mingjin was about to agree, when she saw her daughter wrapped her arms around her thighs, lying tightly on her thighs.

Sighing, she said to the shopkeeper Wen: "It's okay, uncle, just let her go with me, maybe others will find her cute, so they can buy one."

The shopkeeper Wen shook his head when he heard this. This mother, she hurts her daughter so much that it hurts so much.

Qiao Mingjin borrowed a long strip of cloth from shopkeeper Wen, and tied Wan'er on her back like a back pocket.

Xiao Wan'er was lying on her mother's back, smiling happily, and said crisply: "Mother, Wan'er will help you hold an umbrella."

Qiao Mingjin thought that she would hold twenty or thirty umbrellas, but she really couldn't open an umbrella. If her daughter wanted to, let her hold it, so she nodded.

On the other end, Ming Yu and Ming Heng and Ming Qi were also ready, each holding an umbrella and carrying a large bundle of umbrellas.Ming Yu was a little apprehensive. She rarely had the opportunity to go out, and she always managed at home. She was really nervous to sell things outside.

But Ming Heng is completely different.

He can sell eggs and pheasants in the market by himself, and he can also bargain with others. He is bold, shrewd and flexible.He also said that he would sell it for fifty cents.

Qiao Mingjin smiled and said, "If you can sell for fifty cents, that's your ability."

Ming Qi was unconvinced and said, "Hmph, I can also sell it for fifty yuan!"

The two twin siblings like to lift poles when they have nothing to do, and no one is convinced.Without waiting for Qiao Mingjin, the two went out first, one after the other.

"The two of you must be together!" Qiao Mingjin raised his voice and said something.

"Understood." Ming Heng replied and left the shop without looking back.

Qiao Mingjin followed Mingyu out of the grocery store.

Xiao Wan'er really held the umbrella handle tightly with both hands and held it over her mother's head to help open the umbrella.The little thing was very excited, and talked to her mother cheerfully.

Qiao Mingjin carried about forty umbrellas in her arms, and Mingyu carried a dozen or so umbrellas in her armpits, as well as an umbrella.After going out, the rain splashed on the dresses of the two sisters.The accumulated water on the ground soon soaked the cotton shoes.

Qiao Mingjin frowned.She had forgotten all about it.

Most people in this era still wear cloth shoes, and when it rains, they can't walk at all.It's like swimming in water.

No wonder there was no one on the street when it rained, and no one wanted to go out.

How are the rain boots made?Hey, I miss it so much.

Qiao Mingjin felt that her feet were extremely wet, and her dress below her knees was wet from the rain.This feeling is really uncomfortable.

But you can't retreat and turn your head back, right?

Pedestrians who were hiding from the rain along the way looked at them curiously.The return rate of the three people is not generally high.

On the way, people also asked them how to sell umbrellas, but Qiao Mingjin and Mingheng Mingqi had already divided their duties, so they didn't answer, so they walked forward with their heads buried, and burrowed in when they saw wine shops.

We will soon arrive at Huibin Building.

This Huibin Building is twice the size of Piaoxiang Building, with three floors up and down.On weekdays, the hosts are all rich and noble families in the city. I heard that a vegetarian dish costs half a tael of silver.For a meal of dishes, there is nothing worth dozens of taels of silver.

At the beginning, Qiao Mingjin didn't choose Huibin Building to sell vegetables. When the store got bigger, it would be deceitful, and it was not easy to open for business.

On the contrary, in order to attract some customers, the top-ranked restaurants will pay attention to some innovative dishes.

But this will not be selling vegetables, but selling umbrellas.Rich people don't want to wait outside, where can they sit comfortably at home when it's crowded?

Qiao Mingjin took Mingyu to Huibin Building, and untied Xiao Wan'er from her back at the door.

Xiao Wan'er was also sensible, and followed Qiao Mingjin into the building closely.

Qiao Mingjin looked into the lobby, and the lobby of the store was full of people.Among them are some people of status and status, wearing straight silk clothes and gold and jade hair crowns.

It must be that the private rooms on the second and third floors were full of people, so there were so many people that they squeezed into the first floor. Otherwise, where would they usually sit on the first floor?

When the three of Qiao Mingjin came in, the skirt was still dripping with rain.Very embarrassing.

A chap came and wanted to chase them away.

Qiao Mingjin was about to argue a few words, when she heard a child's voice in the lobby on the first floor: "Ah, I've seen you! Didn't you come to my house to sell eggs?"
