Chapter 419 Wanting to Make Money on the Black Market

Once the clientele stabilizes, there aren't actually many people who truly need Shu Yu's makeup services. Haven't you noticed that in the past month or so, including tomorrow's Deng's, she's only received three image design orders?

On the contrary, the ready-made clothes in the shop have always had customers who love them.

The clothes were indeed designed by Shu Yu at first, but later, as Ruan Shi and A Xiang made more clothes themselves, their feel for the craft and their inspiration came out. The two of them discussed things together, and with the suggestions of Daya and Fu Xiangdi, as well as the ideas of the shop's customers, they gradually began to make adjustments on their own, no longer needing Shu Yu's confirmation.

Nguyen was timid by nature, but now that she has found something she enjoys, she is gradually becoming more cheerful.

She is indeed very skilled in making clothes.

The dolls made by the old lady also sell very well. We don't have enough scraps of fabric at home, so we bought a lot more a few days ago.

So even though Shu Yu hadn't been to Yi Ren Ge for a long time, she still had a stable income.

Meng Yunzheng actually saw this very clearly as well.

He looked up at Zhao Xi and said, "Didn't you notice that Miss Lu actually planned to let go a long time ago? Not only Yiren Pavilion, but also Lu Laosan and Yuan Shanchuan, they all have stable jobs now."

Zhao Xi blinked, then blinked again, and after a moment suddenly realized, "Don't tell me that Miss Lu had long anticipated her exile and therefore made arrangements for the future of each member of the Lu family?"

Thinking about it carefully, the Lu family can indeed live a good life even without Miss Lu, but...

After listening to Zhao Xi's words, Meng Yunzheng turned to look at Shu Yu, his eyes also showing a questioning expression.

Shu Yu coughed lightly and said, "How could I be so divine as to foresee my own end?"

Even if you anticipated it, you should pretend you didn't know!

"I'm just doing this as a precaution. After all, the Shu family has committed many evils, and who knows if it might implicate me."

Zhao Xi nodded. "That makes sense."

Meng Yunzheng, however, still looked at her with suspicion.

Shu Yu immediately stood up. "I know everything I need to know. It's getting late, so I'll head back now."

Meng Yunzheng also stood up. He didn't ask any further questions, but simply said, "If you need any help, just come to us..."

"Okay, I'm off then."

Shu Yu turned around briskly, but just as she was about to reach the door, she suddenly stopped and patted her forehead. "Oh dear, there's something I almost forgot."

She quickly returned and asked Meng Yunzheng, "Um, do you know how often the black market opens?"

"Six months."

Shu Yu, “…” Half a year??

That's been way too long. It seems her hopes of accumulating a large sum of money before her exile have been dashed.

She should think of another way, to fool someone elsewhere... and make money.

Shu Yu sighed, and Meng Yunzheng asked her, "What's wrong? Do you still want to go to the black market?"

"No, it's just that I have something I want to auction off on the black market. Hehe, you know, it's better to have some money on the road than to travel far to the southwest.

Meng Yunzheng was about to say that he had money, but after hesitating for a moment, he stopped and said instead, "That's not a problem. You can take the item to the black market. If they assess it and think it's acceptable, they'll accept it directly. However, the price will be lower than at the auction."

Shu Yu's eyes lit up. "That's alright."

Zhao Xi asked curiously, "What is it?"
