Farmhouse Qiaofei

Chapter 194 Trouble
On the first day when Jinse opened the door, Bai Shao's family were all dressed in brand new clothes, with newly hired staff who were willing to follow from Izumo Town, and stood at the door and behind the counter to welcome customers.

Because the prices in Izumo Town and Xieyang County are different, according to the price set by Bai Shao, no matter how half the price is, they can't lose money, so they all watched with smiles as the people flocked to grab the fabric.

This move will naturally cause dissatisfaction among some time-honored fabrics, but because of the plaque that the county magistrate's nephew personally raised, many people can only look at Jinse angrily, and then leave.

Bai Shao also knows how to restrain himself, so he said in advance that this half-price event is only available on the day when the door is open, and as a result, more and more people are rushing to buy it.

The people who can live in Xieyang County have different spending power than the people in Izumo Town.

For example, when Jinse opened in Izumo Town, everyone bought cloth by the foot of the foot, but most of the people in Xieyang County bought half the cloth.

One zhang of fabric can make a suit of clothes for a seven or eight-year-old child, and one and a half zhang of fabric can make a suit of clothes for an adult.

But those are just thin clothes. If it is lined or with a big skirt, the material used is not limited to one foot.

For some complicated clothes, it may take a piece of cloth to make one piece, and with the waste materials, some people may have to prepare two pieces.

Taking these situations into consideration, Bai Shao specially bought 2000 taels of cloth and put it in the big warehouse behind Jin Se.

In the end, it was robbed about one-tenth of it just after the door opened, and Bai Shao's family couldn't help but marvel at the purchasing power of the people in Xieyang County.

"It's really rich. If it was in Izumo Town, it would take half a month to sell it." Bai Wei sighed softly beside him.

Bai Shao smiled and said, "Who can come to the embroidery shop to buy cloth, how many of them have no money?"

"That's right. When we were in Shilipu, your grandma wore the cloth bought by the embroidery shop, and your father and I bought linen cloth worth tens of pennies over there. It was uncomfortable to wear." whispered beside him.

Who would have thought that in just one or two years, her family would sell cloth and be able to wear all kinds of good materials at will.

Of course, in order not to be conspicuous, Wu Shi and Bai Chuanbai both wore ordinary materials, but the inner lining was slightly better.

As for the three children, Mrs. Wu refused to be wronged, and directly used the best materials to make clothes for the three of them.

Bai Yunshi is fine, boys don't need embroidery, but the skirts worn by the two daughters were embroidered by Mrs. Wu, because of this, one of the three skirts I received just paid a deposit and was not delivered. Woolen cloth.

It is said that Buddha relies on gold clothes and people rely on clothes. Putting on bright and bright clothes and some gold and silver jewelry, Sister Bai Shao also changed her temperament from the small village girl before.

Bai Kou staggered and barely stood in the crowd, looking at the Bai Shao sisters who were smiling at the guests at the door, she couldn't believe it, they...how did they have money to wear such nice clothes?
Last Lantern Festival was dark, and it was cold and wrapped in cloaks, so she didn't notice what kind of clothes the Bai Shao sisters were wearing, but now under the sun, she finally saw clearly.

Very comfortable material, nice color, exquisite embroidery, and the most popular double-breasted waistcoat with pleated eight-panel piping skirt in Xieyang County. Compared with the skirt I am proud of, it is not bad at all.

Bai Kou lowered her head and looked at her pale pink pleated eight-panel skirt.

He also looked at Bai Shao's lavender gown and slightly darker skirt, and Bai Wei's goose-yellow double-breasted waistcoat and eight-panel pleats of the same color. They looked so good-looking and dazzling in the crowd.

Purple and yellow are a very dazzling combination. The reason why the sisters Bai Shao and Bai Wei are dressed like this today is because of this color matching problem. They didn't expect that they would inadvertently give Bai Kou a good meal.

"700 taels of skirts are so expensive, how can they be willing to wear them?" Bai Kou couldn't help muttering.

Regarding Jinse selling three pairs of dresses worth 700 taels in five months, Bai Kou first laughed at those who bought the dresses. She thought those people were too stupid. The skirt is only three or four hundred taels. What kind of beautiful clothes can the embroidery shop in a small town of Bai Shao's family make, worth 400 taels?

Later, Bai Kou accidentally saw the dress on Zhao Yueqian's body, and was dumbfounded in shock.

Such a beautiful, dazzling, and rare material is enough to deserve the price of 700 taels.

At that time, Bai Kou was tempted and wanted to do it, but because 700 taels was too expensive, she felt that the third uncle's family would definitely not be willing to wear it for her own people, so she just kept this idea in her heart and didn't pay for it. Actions.

Unexpectedly, Bai Shao and Bai Wei each wore one.

Does this mean... She can also ask for a dress like this?
The more he thought about it, the more his heart moved, and the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't restrain his excitement. Bai Kou pondered among the crowd for a long time, and finally took two steps back quietly, walking towards his own courtyard.

Because Bai Chuanqiang has indeed made a lot of money, the house where the Bai family lives now is also a house with three entrances.

The only difference is that there is no row of rear rooms for maidservants in the back, and the others are almost the same as those in Bai Shao's house. The rent alone is 400 taels a year.

At this time, Mrs. Liu was sitting leisurely in front of the small garden next to the main room of the back house, basking in the sun, squinting her eyes and humming for some reason.

Bai Kou walked over quietly, leaned against Liu Shi's ear, and called softly, "Grandma..."

"Ah, big sister is here." Liu slowly opened her eyes, first she got used to the harsh sunlight, then shook her head and cleared her throat, "What's wrong? Didn't you go out to find your father?" , Why did you come back now? Let me tell you, there are many young talents in your father's job, and you are 16 years old now, so don't pick and choose, find a suitable one to marry."

Bai Kou lowered her head, a look of disgust flashed in her eyes, but the moment she raised her head, her face turned into a smiling face, "My grandma is right, I just went to find my father, it's just... just that I saw it on the way..."

"Who did you see? Why are you like your mother, you still say half of what you say, and you can die if you say it all." Liu sternly reprimanded Bai Kou.

"Grandma, you must not have guessed who it is, the third uncle and the third aunt..." Bai Kou opened her eyes wide, staring at Liu Shi's reaction.

"What?" As expected, Mrs. Liu stood up from the recliner in great surprise, "They came here? Did they come to buy things? They are all rich. They can come to the county to buy things. What do you see them buying?" ?"

"Grandma, the third uncle and the third aunt are not here to buy things, they seem... seem to have opened a shop in Xieyang County..." Bai Kou said slowly, "It seems to be quite big, today is the day to open the shop , A lot of people have gone to buy things.”

"What, the old third shop has opened in Xieyang County?" Liu was even more shocked, "The shop is still very big? They don't want the shop in Izumo Town? How expensive is the rent in Xieyang County, big sister, you and I Tell me, how big is that shop?"

"Yes, it must be as wide as the two of our family..." Bai Kou gestured and glanced at Liu Shi's face. Seeing that she seemed a little unhappy, she hurriedly said, "Third uncle and third uncle are wearing clothes. Brand new clothes, standing at the door to welcome the guests, I saw it at the time, and I couldn't believe it, so I hurried back and told grandma."

"Where does the old three have the money to rent such a big shop in the county? Our yard will cost 400 taels a year, and his big shop will not cost 1000 taels...Impossible, they can't come to the county Business. Did the shop in Izumo Town lose money, and they came to the county to work?" Liu muttered in disbelief.

"That's unlikely. I think the third and fifth sisters are also standing there wearing brand-new clothes, and Saburo is also there. It's impossible to work and bring a child." Bai Kou continued to say cautiously.

"This... this..." Mrs. Liu finally couldn't hold back anymore, she slapped the arm of the rocking chair, and said loudly, "Sister, go and bring me my maroon jacket, I want it Go and see for yourself!"

"Hey, okay." Bai Kou responded happily, turned her head and quickly went to the most central room in the yard, and fetched Liu Shi's clothes.

Because old man Bai was taking a nap because he was afraid of being disturbed, although she was extremely excited, her movements were still very light.

Very light.
