Chapter 053: Sincerity is the ultimate weapon
Su Yun prepared a simple pot of mutton offal soup very well. He found a plant in the mountains that could remove the mutton smell. After marinating the mutton offal, he blanched it in water before putting it into the pot to cook the soup.
The original flavor is the most comfortable. We had a delicious meal in the evening and felt warm.
The next day we agreed to go out together to deliver goods to the county, deliver clothes to my eldest brother, and buy raw materials for making shaqima.
The reason I asked my three brothers to go was that I wanted to take them there to have their sizes measured so that each of them could wear winter clothes.
You have to buy what you need to buy and wear what you need to wear. You can earn money again if you lose it.
Jiang Yu was the only one left at home. Before Su Wan left, she asked him to lock the door and have a good rest in the room, and they would try to come back as soon as possible.
Jiang Yu also knew that he was hunted down and ended up in this situation. There was no need to cause trouble for others, and it was normal for them to have concerns.
I went out early and bought a total of 350 bars of soap, including goat milk soap, 160 each of dyed and undyed.
I also had thirty bars of shampoo soap, and I kept five for myself.
Su Wan set the price at thirty-five cents per piece, so she would have to earn thirty cents in interest.
This is a hair soap, specially used for washing hair. First, it contains Chinese herbal ingredients that are good for hair. Second, it has a unique fragrance. Third, the production process is complicated. There is a purchase limit, so it is understandable that it is sold at a higher price.
Just talk about it in a profound way.
Anyway, her soap has already established a good reputation, so she is afraid that some people will not buy it.
It’s only thirty yuan, which is not enough for the landlords to share even if they have thousands of gold coins.
I told the boss lady that this is the last batch of goat milk soap this year. In the future, they will only restock body and hair soap from time to time, and the quantity will not be too large. They will consider restocking floral soap again after the spring of next year when all the flowers are in full bloom.
The suspense is there. Now there are still two months before the Chinese New Year. They will only miss it when they have used up all the goods and can't buy them anymore.
The total amount of money paid for the goods this time was fifty-four taels of silver.
The proprietress also made money with Su Wan, so she was naturally happy about it. After all, the soap was easy to sell now, so as long as she was the only one who made the money, it was fine.
Su Wan's purse was bulging with money. When Su Yun saw such a big purse, his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Su Wan.
Wow, they easily got fifty taels, which is what their parents could only earn after working in the mine for several years.
"Third brother, please keep it for me. You're tall and I'm afraid it might get targeted by some bad guys!"
He stuffed the purse into Su Chen's arms. He was a tall and strong man, and as a martial artist he was naturally heroic and looked like someone who was not someone to be trifled with.
Su Chen was willing to help her keep it temporarily. She was smart and thoughtful.
"Come on, brothers, let's go cut out two sets of winter clothes each!"
I have to get two decent sets of clothes for the New Year. My eldest brother bought them for me, so the other brothers shouldn’t forget either.
Su Mu's stature is about the same as Su Jing's, so just make it for him according to his elder brother's size, and give him a surprise.
"It would cost a lot of money to tailor clothes for so many people. We still have clothes to wear at home. We don't need to do the work every day. Why don't we just forget it?"
Su Yun felt distressed when he thought about spending a lot of money at once.
"No, you must have what my brother has, and you can't be partial. I have money to pay, what are you afraid of?"
Su Wan generously waved his hand. Seeing that they were hesitant, he simply hooked Su Yun and Su Yi's arms with his arms and pulled them towards the cloth shop.
The brothers had no choice but to follow obediently.
But they felt warm in their hearts. Su Wan thought about them in everything and was not partial at all. He took care of every brother, whether it was food or clothing.
She is using her sincerity to win their hearts little by little.
So, sincerity is the ultimate weapon!
Each of the four brothers made two suits and chose the fabric color they liked. Su Wan took the initiative to choose a blue-gray color for the second brother, but the color was too dull and not suitable for such a handsome man.
Ordinary cotton cloth costs fifteen cents a foot, and the four of them spent less than ten taels in total. The floral fabric that Su Wan chose for himself was a little more expensive.
When working in the countryside, it is inconvenient to wear long clothes, so people make short clothes. The leftover fabrics can be used to sew two pairs of socks.
It cost twelve taels of silver to buy the cloth. I took it to the tailor shop, and calculated that it cost one tael of silver for one person to make two sets of clothes, which was five taels. Now it has to be made of thick cotton, because it is just one outer layer, and my eldest brother has a robe covering the outer layer, so it’s okay if the inner layer is thin. A set of clothes must be made of at least four pounds of cotton, right?
Eleven taels of silver, including the cost of the cotton and the processing fee, the boss finally only took ten taels. Considering that it was a large order, he asked about half of them to come over and take it away together.
Su Jing's clothes were ready. The tailor shop owner wrapped the clothes with unwanted clean scraps of cloth, and then gave her the shoes that Su Wan had left here.
On the way, I bought him some food, some paper for writing, and a small piece of ink, the very ordinary kind, which cost more than one or two taels of silver!
The academy was not far from here, so Su Chen took them to find it. At the gate of the academy, there was an old man sweeping fallen leaves from the sycamore trees.
She said she was there to deliver winter clothes to her brother, but the old man said only one person could go in.
The clothes were Su Wan's gift, so naturally she could go in alone.
There are several teachers in the academy, and hundreds of students are divided into different schools, but they are all recorded in the roster.
After mentioning Su Jing's name, the old man took her in directly without even looking through the name list.
"Su Xiucai's sister? Come in quickly. I didn't expect him to have such a beautiful sister. He is so lucky!"
On the way, the old man was talking to Su Wan. Judging from his tone, it seemed that the eldest brother was still a big shot in the academy.
This is not surprising. With both talent and good looks, naturally more people will pay attention to him.
Gu Yue had never been to Su Jing's academy, and some of his close classmates only knew that he had a younger sister, but had never met her.
One reason is that it is inconvenient for the family to live in the countryside, and the other is that Gu Yue is young and rarely goes out. She doesn't have many opportunities to go to the county. It takes a long time to walk on the mountain road, and it costs money to take a ox cart.
Generally speaking, Su's mother would not bring Little Tail with her when she went to the county.
Under the window, rows of students sat upright, either reading with the teacher or listening quietly to the teacher's lectures.
In the classroom where Su Jing was, everyone was concentrating on writing something.
He was the only one who turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside the window and was only focused on reading the books of sages. The old man stood at the door and nodded to the teacher sitting in the hall. Only after getting permission could he call people. Some people couldn't help looking outside.
"Su Jing, Mr. Su, your sister is here to bring you something. Please come out for a moment!"
Su Jing raised his head when he heard someone calling him. The old man moved aside, revealing Su Wan who was hiding behind him.
The brother and sister's eyes met, Su Wan raised a sweet smile, and Su Jing suddenly felt that all the fatigue from studying late into the night for days had dissipated.
Everyone looked at the pretty little fairy curiously and whispered to each other, but the teacher warned them by knocking on the table with a ruler, and then they lowered their heads and continued to write.
