Abandoned peasant woman in the prosperous world

Chapter 40
Just such a piece of silk will cost nearly four taels of silver!Qin Yuyao couldn't help but gasp. You know, a farmer works hard in the field for a year, and when the weather is good and the harvest is good, he can only earn five taels of silver!
"Ah, it's really cheap!" Who knows, the little girl was pleasantly surprised after hearing this.However, as soon as the words came out, she was slapped by the little sister next to her, and she quickly changed her words: "I bought it for our lady, and you know that our lady is the one who is loved by our master the most. The porridge shed has a bit of our lady's self-esteem. Our lady is such a good person, can you give it a little cheaper?"

"Hey, you little girl, you have a really smart tongue. Forget it, I'll give you another five cents cheaper. 110 five cents a foot, how much do you want?" The boy said, picking up the scissors to cut.

The little maid giggled: "I want this piece of cloth!"

Qin Yuyao, who was standing on the side, was already speechless, and bought the whole piece of cloth at every turn, claiming that it was cheap, which is really rich and powerful.She was not in a hurry, and casually browsed the cloth on the shelf, and waited until the two little maids walked away happily wrapped in silk, before she stepped forward and asked, "What is the best cloth here?"

Unexpectedly, the little guy didn't pay attention at all, he glanced at her from the corner of the eye, lay down on the chair behind the counter, closed his eyes and fanned himself!
No matter where you go, there are always people who judge people by their appearance.Qin Yuyao buckled the counter and shouted: "Man, show me the cloth in your store, it must be the best."

The young man half-opened his eyes and squinted at him: "What is the best? No." He has seen too many women who have no money but love smugness, and every time they use him up, they don't buy it, wasting him in vain. strength.

"Kah!" Qin Yuyao didn't say much to him, but just reached into her bosom, took out Fang Chengqian and her ten taels of silver, and placed it on the counter with a little force.

Seeing it suddenly, the little boy couldn't help being stunned. He rubbed his eyes vigorously, and jumped up with an "ouch", "Wait a minute, I'll get it for you!"

Qin Yuyao curled the corners of her lips and took the silver ingot back into her arms.It is an eternal truth that money can turn ghosts.As for getting angry with the little guy, it's not enough.There are people who judge people by their appearance. She wears such a dress and carries a farmer's pannier on her back. A cloth shop might look down on her.

"Here we come!" At this moment, the curtain leading to the inner room was opened, and the boy walked out with a bag full of cloth.Gently put the cloth in his arms on the counter, raised a passionate face: "This is the best cloth in our shop, this is east silk, soft and close-fitting, it is excellent for making small clothes. This is Nan Ling, light and breathable, very suitable for making handkerchiefs and sweat towels. This is..."

On the counter, there were seven or eight bolts of cloth laid flat, with fine texture, smooth and soft, and it was many times more delicate and beautiful than the silk silk that the little maid bought just now.Qin Yuyao twisted them carefully one by one, then pointed to the two pieces of cloth and asked, "How do you sell these two pieces of cloth?"

"Oh, you have a good eye! These two pieces of silk are the latest material in our store. They have only been purchased for two days, and they have not had time to sell. It just so happened that you caught up with them!" The young man praised , and then gestured two fingers: "Just now you have seen the scene where I sold the little maid to the Baifu. I am the most sincere and innocent. I don't want more from you. These two pieces of cloth, It's all two taels of silver per foot."

"Hehe." Qin Yuyao smiled, and raised her clear eyes to look at the boy, "Do you think I'm an ignorant woman who doesn't know anything when I'm dressed in shabby clothes? people?"

The little guy was stunned for a moment, and his expression suddenly became a little embarrassed: "Where, how could it be?" He said, but his eyes could not help but look at Qin Yuyao carefully.I saw this young lady dressed in shabby clothes, like a very poor peasant woman, otherwise, he wouldn't bother to look at her at first.However, her words and deeds don't look like an ignorant fool...

"Hold these all down, and bring up the really good things in your store." Qin Yuyao's eyes swept over the delicate and gorgeous cloths on the counter, and then moved away without hesitation.It is true that these cloths are not bad, but they are still a bit short of making things for the ladies of high-ranking officials and noble families in Beijing.

Hearing these words, the boy's eyes really showed a bit of respect: "Okay, wait a moment." If a woman without vision sees these things, her eyes will immediately flood, and she will move away again. Keep your eyes open.But Qin Yuyao's indifferent reaction showed that she had at least seen a lot of this kind of material, and her vision was far more than that!
The little guy who became cautious, obediently picked up the cloth on the counter and went into the inner room.After a while, he came out with four or five pieces of cloth in his arms, and placed them on the counter with extra care: "Madam, please take a look."

This time, even the address has changed, becoming respectful.

Qin Yuyao nodded, raised her hand to touch the material, and a gleam of satisfaction flashed in her eyes the moment she touched it.Among these several pieces of material, one is pure pear-blossom white, flipped against the sun, flashing a flowing brilliance.And the other one is bright red, lively and brilliant, so enthusiastic that it seems to have won the favor of heaven.

"The price of these two bolts of cloth?" Qin Yuyao pointed to the pear-blossom white cloth and the bright red cloth.

The young man subconsciously opened his mouth and boasted: "Madam has a good eye, these two pieces of cloth are—"

"Stop!" Qin Yuyao raised her hand to stop him from eloquently, she had limited time and didn't have time to listen to his words, so she just said, "Just tell me the price."

The boy didn't care when he saw it.He had already noticed that this lady had a temper, so he said loudly: "I am an honest person, and I don't ask you how much you want. The white one costs five taels of silver a foot, and the red one costs six taels of silver a foot." " After that, as if afraid that Qin Yuyao would not believe it, he said again: "Madam, don't think it's expensive, these few bolts of cloth are not even superfluous in our store, they are all reserved for the nobles. Look at the whole Qingyang Town , and I will never find another one."

Qin Yuyao nodded.She had inquired about it before she came, and this is the most famous cloth shop in Qingyang Town.Although the price quoted by the boy was expensive, it was already expected.

However, I felt a little emotional in my heart. The villagers of Xiushui Village, a family of four worked hard for a year, but they only earned a dozen or 20 taels of silver.But the two pieces of cloth in front of me can be sold for five taels of silver or six taels of silver per foot.

This world is often like this. Looking at it on a flat level, everyone has one mouth and two hands, which seems to be similar.But looking at it vertically, the gap is so high.Countless splendors and riches are like the intangible clouds, fluttering wantonly and flamboyantly high above, and mortals can't see the end.Qin Yuyao had a deep understanding of these things in her previous life.
