Student An Le was mistakenly captured by the Black Impermanence, forcing her to reincarnate into a poor farming family in another world, equipped with the Seven-Colored Pastoral System given by the...
Hearing that they were going to visit Greentown, Anning was incredibly excited. She packed many gifts to give to Yan Qingxue.
She had thought her younger sister had forgotten about it, but she was surprised that she still remembered.
Although it was a little different from what she had imagined—it wasn't that people came to visit, but rather that they went to visit people's homes.
"Little sister, do you think Miss Yan will like these things I've prepared?"
Anle's lips twitched as she looked at the large and small bundles that Anning had prepared, and her head began to ache.
"We're not moving house, Fourth Sister, aren't you bringing a lot of stuff? What kind of things did you bring?" The carriage that Anle and Anning were riding in was almost completely filled with Anning's things, and there was no room for a third person.
"There's nothing I can do about having too much stuff. I've bought a lot of nice things from Jincheng Commercial Street these past few days."
Little sister, do you know that the streets over there are getting more and more crowded lately, and there are all sorts of strange and unusual shops and gadgets popping up everywhere?
The two largest bags contain plush toys, including a large teddy bear and a pig plush toy. They are really adorable, and many girls love them!
I have never seen such a cute doll.
I think if I give this to Miss Yan, she'll definitely like it. Then I'll go to the toy store and buy two more.
"After all, time was too tight, and we were in a bit of a rush. Otherwise, I would definitely have gone to Jincheng Commercial Street first to buy some new gifts for Miss Yan before visiting her."
Anle blinked and glanced at the two large cloth bags. No wonder she said there were so many things. The two large cloth bags could fill a carriage. It turned out they were large dolls.
"I wonder if Miss Yan has been to Jincheng Commercial Street recently, or if she has tried any of the candies there."
I also brought three bags of candy: one bag of QQ gummies and one bag of lollipops. The candy at that candy store was especially delicious, with all sorts of kinds. I should have bought more if I had known.” Anning started chattering away, her face beaming with excitement.
Anle clicked her tongue. "Look at you, is it really necessary to get so excited? It's just a guest."
"And look, this is what I brought you. It's underwear I bought from that shopping street. I originally wanted to buy it for myself, but thankfully I haven't tried it on yet." Anning pulled out a set of pink underwear from a small bundle and showed it to Anle.
"Look how pretty this dress is! I heard that the embroidered trim on it is called lace. Look at these pretty patterns, they're so eye-catching."
Anle finally started to feel a headache.
"No, Fourth Sister, you can't take this as a gift, can you? You bought this for yourself. You two are different in height, weight, and bust size. It won't look good if you give it to someone else. You should keep it for yourself. Luckily, I took a look, otherwise it would be really embarrassing to give this as a gift."
Ah... she opened a lingerie store over there, but the sales staff there recommend sizes based on customers' body shape and bust size.
"Probably not?" An Ning muttered to herself, gesturing to herself before thinking about Yan Qingxue's figure.
"It seems her breasts are bigger than mine." At this point, An Ning started to hesitate. This thing was quite expensive; this set cost her ten taels of silver.
Originally, giving this thing to that Miss Yan would have been such a source of pride, since it's a valuable item after all.
Wouldn't that make it unpresentable?
"Fourth Sister, let me tell you, you absolutely cannot give this away as a gift. What are you going to give away anyway?" She should quickly take a look at it beforehand.
Anle's gaze lingered on the various bundles on the carriage, and she began to unpack them herself, as she needed to have them approved beforehand.
"Oh...and there's also nail polish. I bought it at that nail salon on Jincheng Commercial Street. This looks so much better than those henna nail polishes I do myself. If I give this to her, she'll definitely love it. It's bright red, and I think it suits her perfectly."
Anle breathed a sigh of relief. "This thing is actually quite good as a gift."
"This little thing costs three taels of silver. If you leave it at that nail salon and have someone do your nails, I heard that if they do them carefully, it will cost even more, one tael of silver per finger."
However, I saw a lady who had two little fingers made, and they looked really good, even better and brighter than this stuff when painted on.
After seeing this, the other young ladies immediately endured the pain and had two little fingers made.
Anle raised an eyebrow. If this thing doesn't make money, why would she get it? Of course, the more expensive the better.
"What's in this cloth bag?"
An Ning paused for a moment, then chuckled, "Oh, this is a pair of baby dolls. You have to paint them yourself. They look really cute, so I painted one right there in the shop."
However, these New Year dolls weren't that expensive. I found them in a particularly cheap shop that had all sorts of exquisite little ornaments, none of which cost more than one tael of silver.
I wanted to give this to Miss Yan because I noticed that the little girl in the pair of dolls looked a bit like her.
Anle nodded. "I see. Then I'll deliver it."
She actually came up with some ideas that didn't require the use of a systematic farming system; they were things that could be made simply by hand.
The cost of clay figurines is naturally low, and dolls, underwear, and the like can all be made by hand, so setting up a shop only requires some manpower and doesn't require using up her farmland.
Moreover, she checked the profits of those small shops over the past few days, and the income was quite considerable.
In particular, recently there have been more and more prominent families and clans coming from outside, and they have gradually begun to open up the market. Yu Rong said that several young masters from prominent families in Baicheng have also come.
Among the people who came with her was someone she didn't want to mention to her cousin Zhiyi: Duan Qi.
It seems that because of the coup in the capital, his whole family was also ostracized. Since they were under the control of the former emperor's ministers, their lives didn't seem to be easy.
The new emperor naturally rejected the old party members, so their subordinates were also implicated.
