Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 371

After thinking about the pros and cons, the shopkeeper shook his head and said, "My bookstore is not very profitable. If you want to cooperate with the girl, it is okay. After the girl's book is printed, I will buy more and sell it for you." Yes. But it is a bit difficult to pay for printing books with the girl, so the girl should find someone else."

According to the shopkeeper, this meant that she was unwilling to cooperate with her, but instead of being angry, Liu Ya smiled, and said, "In that case, well, please ask the shopkeeper which printing workshop is cheaper, specifically How much does it cost. I will come back on the [-]th of this month, and if I am satisfied with the manuscript of the first chapter, I will consider writing it directly."

"Girl, you made a mistake." Jiang Zitao hurriedly interjected after hearing Liu Ya's words: "Girl, you only gave me such a short outline, let alone ten days, no matter how hard I write, I can't write it. Can't write a whole book."

The shopkeeper also thought that Liu Ya didn't know the specific steps, so he hurriedly said: "Yes, girl, you made a mistake. How can you print the book before it's finished? From writing to finishing this small essay, it took three The month is the fastest time. It must be when the money is sufficient, and the girl will contact the book printing workshop next month, and it will be in time."

Liu Ya waved her hand and said, "You don't need to worry about this. Since no one is willing to cooperate with me, it's up to me to print the book, and I will pay for the money, and it's all my own if I lose money or make money." Profit." Liu Ya said to the shopkeeper again: "If you find a suitable workshop, just ask how much it costs for a book of [-] copies, and tell him to print at least twice a month, and each time it will not be less than [-] copies. Ben, let the workshop give me the most affordable price."

After finishing speaking, Liu Ya took out two pieces of broken silver, one of which was about a penny, and handed it to Jiang Zitao, saying: "This is my reward for asking you to write for me, and I will pay part of it first so that you can write for me with peace of mind." " Then he handed another smaller piece of silver, which was also four or five cents larger, to the shopkeeper, and said, "Please tell the shopkeeper, please help me to ask about the publication of the workshop. Let the shopkeeper's Bai waste time, right?"

The shopkeeper was polite at first, but Liu Ya put the money directly on the counter in front of him, and the shopkeeper took it with a smile on his face.And he promised again and again that he would treat this matter as his own business and negotiate a good price for Liu Ya.

Liu Ya thanked her first, and then said: "I still have urgent matters, so let's stop here today. I'll come back when I'm fifteen, and I hope both of you can give me a satisfactory answer."

Both Jiang Zitao and the shopkeeper said "yes, yes", and Liu Ya left in a hurry.

At this time, the sky was getting dark, and it was getting late.Usually at this time, Liu Ya has already gone back.But today I have to be busy with the fight against oirans in Hongxiufang, so I can only delay it for a while.I just hope that Dou Huakui doesn't make a fuss too late, so that she can go home early.

However, fortunately, she has a horse today, and it will be faster for her to go back by riding a horse. She doesn't have to walk back from Xiaozhang Village to her home, which can save a lot of time.

When Liu Ya hurriedly walked towards Hongxiufang, she passed by the cloth shop where she bought the quilt before.It just so happened that the master craftsman of the tailor shop came out, holding a pole to pick out the lantern in front of the door, it should be ready to light the lantern.

Liu Ya looked at the old clothes on her body, and felt that it was time to buy herself some better clothes.Although this dress was sewn by my mother herself, Liu Xuer wore it again after wearing it, and after washing it in a lot of water, it didn't look so glamorous anymore.

These are nothing, Liu Ya doesn't dislike old clothes.It's just that apart from this set of clothes, she doesn't even have any clothes that can be changed.Every time I go home, I still wear Ya'er's old clothes, patch after patch.This dress can only be washed and waited to be worn in the process.

What's more, when I returned to Hongxiufang in a while, that Zhao Dadong's family still came.If I want to discuss business with Zhao Dadong's family, I can't dress too shabby, and I'm easy to be looked down upon by others.This business was calculated by Liu Ya, and it is more developed than the voices of these small connections, so it is not too much to pay attention to it.

Thinking of this, Liu Ya hurried forward and asked, "Master, is the door open here?"

"No, no." The master craftsman had already picked out the lantern. When he turned around and saw Liu Ya, he still had an impression, and said with a smile, "Yo, it's you, girl. What do you want to buy today? If you still want to make bedding, This time is too late. I will open the door for half an hour after lighting the lamp, so I should close the door and go home."

Liu Ya waved her hand and said, "I don't want to buy bedding today, just take a look at the ready-made clothes in your shop."

"Yes, come in." The teacher invited Liu Ya into the shop, and said, "Girl, please take a look at it first. The women's clothes on your right are all in small sizes, and you should be able to wear them. If you really like a little bigger One point, it won’t take long for me to change it for you temporarily. I’ll light the lantern and hang it out first.”

Liu Ya said: "Okay, master, you are busy first, I will call you after I see it."

The old master agreed and was busy lighting the lanterns.

Liu Ya was short on time, and didn't have time to choose carefully, first look at the colors of these clothes, choose simple and elegant colors and feel the materials, and if they feel suitable, take them out to see the style.What is rare in this tailor shop is that there is also a bronze mirror, although it is not a large mirror that stands on the ground, but it is more than two feet high, and it is a half-length mirror.

Liu Ya brought the two suits of the selected styles to the bronze mirror, and compared them on her body, and they were both suitable in size.It's just that there is a peony flower on the front of one set of clothes, which destroys the pure beauty.I made gestures in front of the bronze mirror, and I really didn't like it, so I gave it up.

Liu Ya compared another set of dresses, lotus root pink jacket and light purple pleated skirt, simple in style and good in fabric.Then he asked, "Master, how much is this dress?"

"Here, let me take a look." The old master also just hung up the lantern, put down the bamboo pole in his hand and came over, looked at the clothes in Liu Ya's hand and said, "I made this set of clothes the year before last, when I made a jacket and a jacket This is just one piece of fabric, but the tailoring is a bit tight, and the average girl's figure is afraid that she won't be able to wear it. Girl, you have a good figure, so you should be able to wear it. Why don't you try it, if the upper body fits, I will give you a cheap price point."

Liu Ya compared with her body again, she felt that the style and color were suitable, so she nodded.

The old master pointed to a door curtain inside and said: "There is a small room behind the curtain, where you can try on clothes. After the girl enters, just hang the door hook. There is a light inside."
