Chapter 258 The elders don't look like elders

Chapter 250 Eight Elders Don't Look Like Elders
After a day's discussion, Xue Jian relearned some agricultural knowledge, which is his own shortcoming. In his previous life, he only saw some agricultural activities or heard some knowledge when he went to his grandma's house in the countryside during the holidays.Compared with these few real old farmers, I really don't understand it, but fortunately I have some new ideas.

Early the next morning, Shen Sanzhu took Xuejian and Xiaocao to the town in a car, and there were two other boys, namely Chengwen and the eldest sister's son Xiaoliang.Xiaoliang has been running behind Chengwen recently, and Chengwen occasionally taught him to recognize two characters, so this little uncle is Mr. Xiaoliang in Xiaoliang's mind. Although this little uncle is younger than himself, in his opinion , the little uncle knew a lot more than himself, so Xiaoliang followed Chengwen's little follower.

Shen Sanzhu took his four children to the town today, and Xue Jian was going to embroider large and small pieces from the embroidery workshop, and also went to see Uncle Jia to see if this new iron was ok.Next, I want to buy some New Year snacks for my family and some New Year cakes for the embroiderers in the embroidery workshop.

It was the first time for Xiaoliang to ride a carriage. He sat on it with his back straight and dared not move. When the carriage shook, he would jump up nervously. As a result, he couldn't stabilize when he jumped up. On the contrary, he fell down.It made Chengwen laugh out loud.Xiaocao hastily pulled Xiaoliang over and asked him to sit beside her.Xuejian also glared at Chengwen and accused:

"You're still an uncle, you don't look like an elder. Xiaoliang, don't be afraid, you relax, the car shakes and you follow it. Ignore Chengwen. Sit next to Aunt Xiaocao."

Xiaoliang nodded with a blushing face, and sat against Xiaocao, Xiaocao reached out to hold Xiaoliang's hand, so Xiaoliang didn't straighten his back, and Xiaoliang was no longer afraid before he reached the town.

When he arrived in the town, Shen Sanzhu didn't leave the carriage, but drove directly to the entrance of Hongfu Store.Just stopped there for a while, Xuejian and Xiaocao unloaded the things, and the little guy in the Hongfu shop saw it.He also hurried over to help with things and said:

"Miss Shen, the boss and the boss's wife are here today."

Xue Jian nodded, touched two coins from her waist and handed them to the boy.Thank him for helping to download the things, the little guy smiled happily, this Miss Shen is just fine.Every time I come, I will reward these little guys with a small change, even if I bring something to eat for the proprietress, and I don’t forget to prepare another bag for myself.Among all the guests, this is the first one.The most important thing is that Miss Shen has never looked down on her errands.Everything he says and does is so heartwarming.

When Hongfu saw Xuejian coming, he trotted up to meet him, hurriedly took Xuejian and Xiaocao's hands and walked in, beckoning Chengwen and Xiaoliang to follow along while walking, Shen Sanzhu had to stay outside and watch the carriage.Hong Fu smiled and blamed:
"It's so cold, what are you doing here? Come in and enjoy the fire."

Xue Jian giggled and said:

"Aunt Hong, don't worry, just touch it, our hands are warm, I also put a brazier on the carriage, it won't cool us down."

Hong Fu felt that the two little hands were really warm.Also said with a smile:
"It's not cold yet. Look, it's bound to snow today. Come here. Come to the backyard and bring your things in."

He greeted the guy behind him as he walked.

The boy put the two big bags one by one to the backyard, and Hong Fu poured a cup of hot tea for each of the children, then sat down and said:
"It looks like something has been embroidered?"

Xue Jian nodded.He stepped forward to open a package and said:

"This is a set of dowry. Take a look first, Aunt Hong, you have to check it carefully. We still have time to correct it if we find something wrong. This is a happy event for others. If something goes wrong, it will be troublesome. There is also a package in this package." The ones are the small items I took back from you. Take a look too. Is my Uncle Jia here? I also brought something for Uncle Jia.”

"Yes, yes, I won't come here. As soon as I heard that Xuejian is coming, I will come here immediately. What did you bring for me?"

It was Boss Jia who answered the conversation, Xue Jian smiled and Mimi stepped forward and said:

"Come on, Uncle Jia, take a look. These are two new irons I designed. They are much smaller than the previous ones. I think some ladies and wives don't have that strong hands. I'm afraid it will be better to use this kind of iron. Why don't you take it to the capital to try?"

Boss Jia tried it out in his hands, looked around, and praised repeatedly:

"These two models are very good. I'm optimistic about them, and they are guaranteed to sell well! I said, Xueer, how did you come up with the idea? Seeing these two models, I don't tell you, I think the previous ones are too bulky. These two models are exquisite. It’s so pretty, hahaha, how much did you get?”

"Not many, only fifty of each style were made. I'm afraid you don't want it."

Xuejian stuck out her tongue and smiled mischievously.

Boss Jia smiled and said:

"One hundred, right? I want it. I'll give you one or two more than the original ones. Do you think it's okay? It's just that one hundred is not enough. After you go back, ask Lao Niu and the others to make some more. I have to I will bring them to the capital after the next year, and prepare at least [-] of each style. I will also make [-] of the old style."

Xue Jian smiled and said:
"Okay. Anyway, you order how much it costs, and I'm just asking about it. If you want it, I'll ask Grandpa Niu to make more. I made it a year ago and brought it to you."

Boss Jia nodded and said with a smile:

"Xue'er, you are doing well in this business, don't you have a shop? Why don't you do it yourself, and leave it to us?"

Xue Jian said with a smile:

"I will take care of my shop after the new year, and then open again. I can wait for the new year with peace of mind now."

Hong Fu continued on the side:
"Yes, a child is looking forward to the New Year. There are new clothes, good food, and visiting relatives to pay New Year's greetings."

Xuejian nodded repeatedly, which made Hongfu laugh.After a while, he said:
"Okay, take a look, the one you delivered is well done. I checked, and it's all right. You wait a moment, I'll go to the counter to cancel these accounts, and settle the money to you. "

Xue Jian nodded.Boss Jia also turned around and went in to get the money.After a while, I came out and took a purse, and opened it to Xue Er to see, there were 3000 taels of silver bills in it.road:

"This is the deposit for the [-] and the [-] I ordered. You should collect it first. I will give you the rest after receiving your goods."

Xue Jian nodded, and put all her purses into her arms without politeness.Now you don't need to sign any contracts to do business with Uncle Jia.Everyone traded face to face, and Uncle Jia never gave Xuejian less money, and brought some food home for his younger brothers and sisters from time to time.Of course, Xue Jian never missed Uncle Jia's affairs.

After a while, Hongfu came in, also holding some red envelopes, and said:

"This is the money for your embroidery. I wrote a detailed list. You can check it. There are also these purses, which are for your four children, and these two, for the little one. Yuewei and Chengwu took it back. It’s the Chinese New Year, and it’s the New Year’s money that Aunt Hong and Uncle Jia gave you. I don’t think you will come to the town again before the next year. Next time, when the iron is ready, ask someone to bring it to you. It's too cold, so don't come here yourself."
