peasant girl wedding

Chapter 115 Zhoufu
Tong Zhi'er took out the stacked papers from his pocket, unfolded them, and took out one of them and handed it to the shopkeeper Jin.

Shopkeeper Jin took a look, and his face was filled with joy.

He believed that the dolls made according to the dolls on this paper would definitely be popular.

"Let's make an offer, girl."

The treasurer Jin is a cheerful person.

Tong Zhi'er smiled slightly, "Just give me [-]% of the profit for every puppet sold."

Shopkeeper Jin frowned.

This girl is really smart, she directly said the buyout price without opening her mouth, but based on the doll's share, the more she sells, the more she will naturally earn.

"Tong girl, let's not talk about the material I need to make a puppet and the wages of the embroiderers. I just say that this puppet is put on the cabinet and sold. In a few days, there will be exactly the same dolls on the street. At that time, my business here will be much colder, and I will not make any money. I will give you [-]% of the profit. This is a loss-making business. In my opinion, you look like a doll Sell ​​it to me for a tael of silver. I don’t want to make a lot of money, just keep my capital.”

"Treasurer Jin, what you said is wrong. Even if there are exactly the same ones on the street, the craftsmanship and materials are completely incomparable with the ones from Shopkeeper Jin, and small farmers with little money will buy them on the street. The big and rich people in the county are sure to come to you. At that time, not only do they buy dolls, but also any good-looking materials you have here. Looking at it this way, the profit is only It’s not a loss, don’t you think so?”

"Ha ha……"

Shopkeeper Jin couldn't help laughing.

What an eloquent girl.

"How about this, you and I each take a step back and share [-]% of the profit for each doll, what do you think?"

"Treasurer Jin, from [-]% to [-]%, I have lost a lot. It seems that I should go to another house to have a look." Tong Zhi'er took the puppet doll in his hand, stood up and was about to go outside.

"Don't rush to leave, we can discuss everything..."

He had only taken three steps before he heard shopkeeper Jin's voice to persuade him to stay.

"Okay, let's divide it according to [-]% of each profit. However, the girl Tong needs to guarantee that she will bring out new puppet styles to my store every month. If not, the share can only be divided Reduced to [-]%."

"it is good."

Tong Zhi'er readily agreed.

There are still 95 cards in the left and right houses, which is enough for her to last for a long time.

Even if you really don't know what to paint at that time, you can still get [-]% of the profit of the cloth shop.

She is not at a disadvantage.

The two reached an agreement, and agreed that every month when Tong Zhi'er handed over the puppet style, the money would be settled, and the deed was written, in duplicate, signed, and stamped with fingerprints. one serving.

After finishing these, Tong Zhi'er handed over the five doll patterns to Shopkeeper Jin, and left here together with Tong Zhu'er.

"Second Sister, tell me, if Shopkeeper Jin doesn't tell us how much profit he makes from selling dolls and gives us less, aren't we being tricked by him?" Tong Zhu'er asked uneasily.

"Business requires integrity. If he cheats us, we just don't want to do business with him."

"But how can we know if he lied to us? Could it be that the second sister asked him to show you the account book, so he can show it to you?"

Naturally, other people's account books will not be shown casually to outsiders, but Tong Zhi'er still has a way to know whether he has lied to them or not.

"Don't worry about this problem, I will solve it in due time."

"Ah."

After living in the new house for about five or six days, the custom-made beds and furniture arrived.

Tong Zhixin carried them to their rooms, and Fang Cuiwei and several daughters laid out mattresses, mattresses, sheets and quilts, and finally they didn't have to squeeze the whole family into one room, and each had their own separate room.

Time passed slowly, and the creeper growing beside Tong Zhixin's thatched cottage changed from green to old green.

On this day, the well-dressed old lady and Tong Zhaojin set off from Tong's old house and entered the door of a house.

The house is a brick and tile house with red walls and green tiles, and two stone pillars lit with red paint stand on the steps on both sides of the gate.

This is the home of Master Zhou, the richest man in the village.

The family made their fortunes from the gold mine at the ancestral grave, and moved to the affluent Qingzhou long ago. They usually live in the county, but they will return to the village to escape the summer heat during the hottest time of the year. .

This is the sixth year since the Zhou family came back from Qingzhou, and they only arrived at home the day before yesterday.

The old lady looked at the stately Zhou Mansion for a while, and adjusted the clothes that were very neat, and then went up the steps, gently pulled the pull ring on the door, and knocked on the door.

With three dull "dong dong dong", a housekeeper opened the door.

"Who are you looking for?"

The butler's voice was very dull, and his face was expressionless.

The old lady had a flattering smile on her face, "We are the Tong family in the north of the village. I told Mr. Zhou about the marriage between my grandson and Ms. Zhou. Today I brought my grandson to show Ms. Zhou."

"You wait here, and I will tell the master and lady."

The butler turned around, and the door slammed shut.

The smile on the old lady's face disappeared immediately, and she spat at the closed door, "What is it? It's a bullshit! When my family recruits Jin to marry Miss Zhou, let's see if you dare to be so defiant!"

"That's right, when I marry Miss Zhou, let's see how I treat him!" Tong Zhaojin followed and walked to the old lady's side, "Grandma, don't be angry, he will look good to you in the future."

"Well, I'm not angry, I'm not angry."

The two stood outside the door for half an hour before the housekeeper opened the door.

"Master, please come in."

"Hey----"

The old lady and Tong Zhaojin were all smiling, and followed behind the cold-faced housekeeper.

The Zhou Mansion really deserves to be the home of the richest man.

As soon as you enter the door, you can see famous trees and flowers, rockery and flowing water, pavilions and waterside pavilions, and the row upon row of buildings behind it, which is really magnificent.

The old lady and Tong Zhaojin's eyes were dizzy all the way.

The butler led the two of them to a mansion.

"Master, here we come."

The butler said respectfully.

The old lady and Tong Zhaojin were also very nervous.

The door was not opened, and a nonchalant voice came from inside.

"Take them to see the lady."

"Yes."

The old lady and Tong Zhaojin looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.

"You two, please follow me to the backyard."

Seeing that the two of them didn't follow him, the steward said in displeasure.

I really don't understand why the young lady has taken a fancy to such a greedy family and insisted on marrying into Tong's family.

With this question in mind, the housekeeper led the two of them to the water pavilion in the backyard.

The water pavilion is surrounded by white tulle to block other people from peeping. Four maids dressed in the same clothes are standing around the water pavilion.

Tong Zhaojin looked at the four maids, his eyes almost popped out.

As expected of the richest man's family, even the girl is white and clean.

"Miss, we're here."

"Ah."

A soft female voice came from the middle of the water pavilion, like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, sweet and moving.

Tong Zhaojin was immediately attracted by the sound, and moved his eyes away from the four maids, staring straight at the figure under the tulle and living in the water pavilion.

The woman stood up and took a few steps to this side, revealing her graceful curves.

Tong Zhaojin's soul was firmly hooked.

"We meet again."

Tong Zhaojin subconsciously gave a "hmm" and didn't pay attention to what she said.

Instead, the old lady nudged the stunned Tong Zhaojin quietly with her elbow, and said in a low voice, "When did you guys meet?"

Tong Zhaojin came back to his senses, with doubts on his brows, he didn't seem to have seen the young lady of the Zhou family before, probably the young lady of the Zhou family had seen him and was attracted to him.

Thinking of this possibility, Tong Zhaojin was secretly delighted.

Although the old lady is mean and stingy, and is not good to her sons, she has a good appearance. The old man Tong is also handsome. The four children born to the two are all good-looking, and the grandchildren are also handsome. It was the fourth child of the Tong family, because Tong Zhixin married Fang Cuiwei, the most beautiful of the three wives, and the four children she gave birth to were also the most beautiful in the Tong family.

Lin's appearance is the most unattractive among the three daughters-in-law, but Tong Zhiming is still acceptable. Tong Zhaojin inherited Tong Zhiming, and she looks like a human being.

In addition, he works in the city and does not want to bask in the sun. His skin is that wheat-colored, and he has received winks from some girls on weekdays.

Tong Zhaojin thought, this Miss Zhou must have seen his face before, so she fell in love with him.

Fortunately, I have divorced the Hu family, so I don't have any worries now.

Suddenly, Tong Zhaojin stared straight.

In the waterside pavilion, the thin gauze was lifted, the woman's pancreas was as soft as snow, her skin was snow-white, and the clothes on her body were also expensive gauze, but half of her face was burned, which was terrifying and frightening.

Not only Tong Zhaojin's eyes stared straight, but also Miss Zhou's.

She didn't expect that this person was not the person she met that day.

"Housekeeper, seeing off the guests——"

The silly old lady and the shocked Tong Zhaojin were thrown out of the door by the butler of the Zhou Mansion in the blink of an eye.

Tong Zhaojin was suddenly born in a dream.

It's terrible. It turns out that the young lady of the Zhou family had such a terrible birth. No wonder no one married her at the age of twenty, and this good thing happened to him.

"Why did you blow us out?"

The old lady was confused. Didn't the young lady of the Zhou family just now get angry in the blink of an eye, and asked the housekeeper to drive them out.

"Grandma, let's go back."

Thinking of that burned face, Tong Zhaojin felt lingering fear in his heart.

The old lady glared at him, "Go back? What are you doing going back? Think about how you offended Miss Zhou's family? Hurry up and apologize!"

Tong Zhaojin had a bitter face.

Inside Zhou Mansion.

"This person is not what I want to see!" Miss Zhou said angrily.
