Pastoral Valley Fragrance

Chapter 16

After Jingzhe was beaten that day, Li Dequan went to Chen Yongyu's house, and he accompanied him to the landlord's house, and agreed to make up the money that Jingzhe returned during the autumn harvest. That precious son didn't have Jing Zhe as his companion and didn't care about studying, so he always agreed.

From then on, Jingzhe still went to private school to study every day.The days still have to go on like this.

Fortunately, Li Dequan's first batch of wooden barrels and basins have been prepared, and they are waiting to be sold at the market.

In Linjiang Town, there is one set every five days, every five and ten is the set day.After finishing the work of Jingzhe, it will be the fifteenth day after another day, every meeting.

Although Li Dequan went to Linjiang Town once with Jing Zhe, buying and selling are not the same after all, not to mention the rules and the market are not clear, even where to sell.If someone bumps into someone, not to mention selling things, if they fail, they will be beaten up. There are rumors in these villages.

After dinner, Li Dequan tidied up those things and made a wooden stick to make a pole. One end was a chicken food box and a wooden bucket, and the other end was a wooden basin pig trough, so that the weight of the two ends was about the same. He put the chicken food box on the pole. After entering the wooden barrel, he tied the wooden basin pig trough with a straw rope, picked it up and walked a few steps, seeing that it was shaking a bit, he tied the rope a little shorter, and put it aside until it was stable.

The second uncle said with a smile: "Brother Quan, your craftsmanship is really good, you must be able to sell it for a good price."

Li Dequan rubbed his hands with some embarrassment, "Second Uncle, I will send you two envoys for your old man in a while."

The second uncle laughed loudly and knocked on the cigarette pouch, "I said, brother Quan, you are too careful. With you living here, the tables and benches have been repaired, and Jinxuan's cotton-padded jacket is also your daughter-in-law. Clean up, don't be polite to me, I just ask you, do you know how to do this business?"

Li Dequan was a little stunned. At first he was doing woodwork in the provincial capital, but he was with his master. He didn't ask anything for the money. He used to eat and live at the master's house, but after he became a family, he went into the master's house every day to give People do their jobs.Of course, there are also those small families who buy them in shops.It's just that none of them have gone through this battle, so they hesitated and said: "Just put it on the ground and wait for people to buy it."

The second uncle said in a deep voice: "Well, Jinxuan will also go to the town tomorrow to have a look, and by the way, bring those two leathers to sell. I think Xiaoman has embroidered some things these days. You can take them with you." They are sold together, Brother Quan, you guys will have a partner, Jinxuan is familiar with the town."

Gu Yu thought about it a few times. Anyway, he has stayed at home for so long. Since he can go out, it is better to go out and have a look. What if he finds some business opportunities?Besides, even if there is no business opportunity, you still need to be familiar with the place where you live. The circle of the whole day is too narrow, and Li Dequan is too honest, she thinks that it may be useful at that time.

Thinking of this, she went over and pulled Li Dequan by the corner of his clothes: "Father, let's take Gu Yu with me, I've never been to town before."

Li Dequan hesitated a bit, and said hesitantly: "Gu Yu, dad is not going to hang out, this is for business, and you can't take care of you when you go, besides, the weather is a bit cold, dad is afraid that you will freeze."

Gu Yu pouted, displeased, "Father, I didn't go out when I was in the city, and now I'm in good health, I won't cause you any trouble if I go out, besides, Brother Jinxuan is going out together, you don't have to Look after me." After speaking, she looked at An Jinxuan eagerly.

Seeing the anticipation on Gu Yu's face, An Jinxuan also softened his heart, "I will watch her when the time comes."

Li Dequan was still worried, "You can walk to this five or six miles..."

Gu Yu snatched Xiaoman's embroidery and ran out the door, "I'll help hold this embroidery, I'll wait for you by the river, Dad—"

The whole family was amused by Gu Yu's move.

The group of three went to Linjiang Town.

When they arrived in the town, An Jinxuan took them to a place, helped Li Dequan put the things on his shoulders away, and then explained, "Someone will come to collect the land fee in the future, two cents, don't move the place. "

Li Dequan was a little cautious. Hearing what Jinxuan said, he didn't ask any more questions. He squatted on the ground blankly, guarding the wooden basin and barrel, looking a little pitiful.

Gu Yu ran not far away, there were a few rocks over there, thinking he had found a treasure, "Father, come over here and put it here, you can sit here."

An Jinxuan quickly stopped him, "No, they sell hoes over there. There are rules, and you will be fined if you cross the boundary."

Management so strict?Gu Yu was a little unbelievable, and stayed for a long time. As expected, there were more people around. Those who should sell chickens and ducks were selling chickens and ducks. In the past, there were some selling vegetables, and then there were those who sold rice and bran. It was very orderly. Preface, this is what I believe.

An Jinxuan looked up at the sky, and said, "This wooden thing won't be sold out anytime soon. I'll take Gu Yu to sell embroidery and skins, and I'll come back when the time comes. Uncle Li, wait here."

Gu Yu walked a few steps, turned around and saw that Li Dequan had nowhere to put his hands and feet, and ran over, "Father, look, turn the wooden basin upside down, you can use it as a stool, anyway, the wooden basin you made is strong."

An Jinxuan walked awkwardly with Gu Yu, he didn't lead Gu Yu like Jingzhe, he walked with big steps, he often walked past, he was worried, but he suppressed his anxiety, turned his head slightly, and waited. Follow Gu Yu to follow.Until he figured out the rules, he asked Gu Yu to walk in front of him, so he had to walk two steps and stop one step. Gu Yu looked up at him, and didn't see any impatience in him. Gu Yu saw him walking as if he was in military training , I snickered to myself.

Finally arrived at the embroidery shop, the proprietress looked at the three purses and seven handkerchiefs handed over by An Jinxuan, her eyes lit up, she looked at the two children again, she didn't say the price, but asked Gu Yu: "You embroidered this? "

Gu Yu replied crisply: "No, my mother and my sister embroidered it. It's something from Yunzhou City. Look at the color and luster of the silk. It must not be found here. The proprietress saw that you are a person who knows the goods, so she took it away." This embroidery from me is the only one in Linjiang Town, I guarantee that your business will be prosperous, and the threshold will be trampled by customers."

The proprietress was so teased that she burst out laughing: "You little girl is really smart, that's fine, I'll just say this to you, and I'll accept it, eight coins for a purse, six coins for a handkerchief, no more. "

Gu Yu was a little hesitant, she calculated in her heart, but she still didn't know whether it was a good deal or not.

An Jinxuan, who hadn't opened his mouth all this time, said now, "This can't be done, this is a high-quality soft cloud, not to mention the embroidery worker, this material is a tribute, plus the embroidery worker, there must be eighteen pieces of money. Is this a handkerchief? It’s Sujin, and it only costs ten coins.”

Gu Yu took a deep breath, this An Jinxuan is a boy from a farmer, he couldn't have blackmailed the embroidery shop, could he?A lot of money was added.

Unexpectedly, the proprietress was not very shocked, she just smiled bitterly, "Little brother, how can a purse use so much money, my shop also wants to make money, your price is too high Now, whether or not it can be sold is another matter."

It turns out that An Jinxuan is not tall?She held back the excitement, and said: "Madam proprietress, we are underestimating this way. Just think about it, the momentum of the embroidery shop will be different now. I can't guarantee that the owner of the pavilion is still the lady and wife of the rich family." If you do, I will come to you to buy things in the future, won't the momentum of your embroidery shop increase? When you have a reputation, you will make money at that time."

The proprietress moved her eyebrows a few times, but she still didn't speak.

Gu Yu went over and took An Jinxuan's hand, "Brother Jinxuan, let's go to another embroidery shop, they can still be sold."

The proprietress was thinking in her heart that the Qin family's embroidery shop is getting more and more prosperous, and her business has always been deserted. Mrs. Hu San came here a while ago, and she promised to ask for good things. There is nothing good, I'm afraid it's just unreasonable.

Seeing that Gu Yu and the others were about to leave, they didn't care too much. They gritted their teeth and said, "Wait a minute, each of these three purses is eighteen cash, and the seven handkerchiefs are seventy cash, total, total..."

Gu Yu counted it when An Jinxuan quoted the price, and replied neatly at this time: "A total of 120 four coins, I see that the proprietress is sincere, if you accept them together, it will be 120 coins."

The proprietress smiled, as if she had made up her mind: "This 120 Wen is too much, why don't I give you a hundred Wen."

Gu Yu thought of a way: "In this way, proprietress, you can give 120 Wen, and we will send you something when we have something in the future, so you don't have to worry about other shops stealing your business."

The proprietress finally agreed, "Okay!"

Carrying 120 Wen coins in his pocket is a bit heavy, Gu Yu is like a rich man: "Brother Jinxuan, you know a lot, I treat you to eat."
