A good wife and a good mother

Chapter 404 Pay attention to the influence (3)
Whether it's bookstores, teahouses patronized by literati, jewelry shops, garment embroidery workshops patronized by nobles, or grocery stores, snack bars, handicraft workshops patronized by ordinary people, she will pull the sky. Clear in and turn around.

In the bookstore, she was surprised to find that the book that she told the story in Liugang Town had been printed and sold in a book called "Legend of Journey to the West". Shi Lan.Mo Dai didn't know if this was Shi Lan's original intention, but she was a little disgusted, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

The proprietress of the bookstore enthusiastically introduced this book to her, saying that it sold very well, and it was sold for two taels of silver. It started selling a month ago, and more than 500 copies have been sold.Mo Dai lacks interest, but Qiong Qing seems to be very interested in the story inside.So Mo Dai bought a copy for Qiong Qing, seeing him holding it like a baby, Mo Dai smiled helplessly.

They went to the teahouse to sit for a while, drank a cup of tea, and came out after listening to a little song.The jewelry shop also came in, but they only looked at it and didn't buy it. The proprietress inside also greeted them indifferently. When they finally left, they said enthusiastically, "Welcome to come back next time."

Mo Dai focused on visiting the ready-made embroidery workshop, and learned about the styles, materials and prices of the clothes inside. There are four husbands in her family who are proficient in this industry. She can trust their craftsmanship. The key is sales. She thinks, maybe in the future Sell ​​the embroidery work made by Mo Wuyun and the others to the Imperial Capital. The things here are generally expensive. As long as they are more gorgeous and colorful, no one will buy them.

Passing by a snack shop similar to the modern Malatang, Modai took Qiongqing in and ordered two bowls of duck blood vermicelli soup with chili peppers added. Qiong Qing was so hot, Mo Dai leaned under his veil to take a look, and saw that his eyes were full of autumn water, his forehead was dripping with sweat, and his pale pink lips were as red as a peony flower in full bloom.

Mo Dai couldn't help turning her face to snigger, and Qiong Qing immediately blushed, embarrassed and embarrassed, neither eating nor not eating.Mo Dai ordered another bowl of non-spicy ones for him, and he ate the remaining half of the bowl directly into his own bowl and ate it.

Qiongqing was moved again by Modai's unabashed behavior.Mo Dai didn't pay attention, she was a bit of a clean freak, but because it was a family, she didn't care.

The two continued to go shopping after eating, and suddenly saw a group of people in front of them clamoring around a stall, and a few came out after watching the excitement, and laughed while walking: "I think that man is crazy about money." I can only sell bamboo baskets for fifty renminbi at most, but he actually asked me for a tael of silver, why didn't he grab it!"

"Isn't it? I don't think the craftsmanship of the bamboo baskets is very good. They are everywhere on the street. How dare he ask for a tael of silver!"

"Look at him wearing a black gauze hat, he doesn't even dare to let us see his face, he must be shameful!"

"Hahaha……"

Mo Dai and Qiong Qing didn't want to join in the fun at first, and they didn't join in the fun, but they were just passing by, and the people around the vendor scattered like wild animals, and the man selling things came into their sight all of a sudden, all of a sudden. White shirt, wearing a black gauze hat.

Mo Dai's heart skipped a beat, she was just passing by, she didn't see anything...

"stop!"

Mo Dai froze, subconsciously stopped, and wailed inwardly, why is Mao such a coincidence?

So turn left and walk in unison, stand at attention and stand still.

"Master, this imperial capital is really small!" Mo Dai said with a smile, and Qiong Qing hurriedly nodded to the man in salute.

"Bah! Don't think that I can't hear that you are saying that I am haunted!" Chen mercilessly read through Modai's implication.

"Hehe, how can I? Master, you should know what I am. I respect my elders the most. If you don't believe me, you can ask my father!"

"Come on, don't give me the yin and yang! Hey, these bamboo baskets are sold to you, one tael of silver, a total of 20 taels!"

"Master, are you robbing?" Mo Dai's mouth twitched.

"Hmph, haven't you found the money owner? You don't care about being a teacher anymore, right? If that's the case, let's break up together! Give the teacher 1000 taels of breakup fee!" Chen naturally stretched out his hand to Modai. Claws, the claws are slender and clean, the knuckles are distinct and strong, the nails are smooth, beautiful, but poisonous!

"Master, a rascal wouldn't go too far like you!" Mo Dai had an expression of "Are you crazy? Are you really crazy? No one would believe you're not crazy".

"Rascal? Can you try again?" Chen picked up Mo Dai's collar, and suddenly smelled the smell of vermicelli soup from the snack bar on Mo Dai's body, "You will enjoy it, you know your bowl of duck blood The vermicelli soup can buy forty Zamian steamed buns, and the porridge is enough for forty children to eat?"

"Master, calm down, can I buy it?" Mo Dai hurriedly took out the bag of broken silver that Li Xianlai gave her, and was about to open it and count out 20 taels for him, but he snatched it away. Mo Dai was angry "Master, how can you do this? My money is also earned by me. It's not that I haven't lived a hard life. You robbed the rich and gave to the poor and found the wrong person!" He took back his purse, counted 20 taels to him, and walked back with Qiongqing carrying twenty bamboo baskets on his back.

Chen looked at the back of Mo Dai's leaving, and the cold and thin lips under the black veil slightly raised a curve.

Mo Dai put the bamboo basket at the entrance of Xianlaiju, and asked Li Xianlai to help watch it, while she and Qiongqing went to a handicraft workshop to buy 20 red strings and a small wooden sign engraved with auspicious blessings for [-] yuan. Mo Dai specially selected five kinds: good luck, prosperity, prosperous business, fulfillment of wishes, and promotion.

The small wooden tokens and red strings totaled eighty Wen. After buying them, Mo Dai and Qiong Qing tied these small wooden tokens with red strings to the edge of the bamboo basket.

Mo Dai borrowed a brush and ink from Li Xianlai again on red paper, and wrote three large characters: transfer baskets. Li Xianlai roughly guessed that Mo Dai might want to sell these baskets.

This kind of basket is the most common, but Li Xianlai didn't think that Mo Dai could sell it for a sky-high price by tying a few small wooden plaques on it. It was too expensive, sixty yuan a piece, and the people who came to the restaurant to eat were all famous people, who would buy it? These low things?The baskets are sold outside the restaurant, won't it lower the standard of her restaurant?Li Xianlai somewhat disapproved of Mo Dai's actions, and was even more disdainful in his heart, but he didn't say much, after all, she was Mo Dai's wife, and she was quite in awe of Mo Dai.

However, Li Xianlai's guess was wrong. It is precisely because the baskets are placed at the entrance of her big restaurant that people feel strange. They have speculated about the difference between these baskets. In addition, these baskets have an auspicious name "Transfer Basket". Therefore, most of the guests entering and leaving the restaurant will take a look and ask a few questions.
