Chapter 33 Pricing



Golden Swallow continued, "When I was building the Golden House, I liked to eat the leaves of the Agarwood tree. The saliva mixed with the leaves formed a green bird's nest. It takes about 10 to 20 years to build a Golden House, and in such a long time, only one or two bird's nests can be built. The Golden House is very cold, and it must be covered with bird's nests to keep warm. So, the green bird's nest is my mattress, and I can't give it away casually. Occasionally, I take some out, but I just tear a strip from the bird's nest, not the whole piece."

The bird's nest, which takes 10 to 20 years to build, is really a rare treasure. No wonder it is green, it turns out there are leaves inside. Also, that tree is an agarwood tree, also called agarwood... I will study these later.

Chen Ahfu asked again, "Can a bird's nest cure a disease?"

Jin Yanzi said, "Not to mention one, even half of it can save a life."

Oh my god, I made a fortune. Chen Ahfu smiled sweetly and said, "Great, Jin Baoer, go and tear off one."

Jin Yanzi was standing on the palm of Chen Ahfu's left hand, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. Chen Ahfu also silently said "enter" and followed into the space.

She was riding on the tree again.

Jin Yanzi said, "Mommy has to shout 'come in' before you can stand on the ground. If you just shout 'come in', then you can only ride on the tree."

It's still so troublesome. Chen Ahfu slid down the tree and said, "Okay, I'll know next time."

A golden swallow flew into a golden house and pecked out a thin piece of fragrant bird's nest.

Chen Ahfu was a little disgusted and said, "Jinbao, you are too stingy. This piece of bird's nest is not much thicker than a hair. How can it be useful?"

Jin Yanzi said, "Green bird's nest is too nutritious. People with weak constitutions cannot bear to eat too much. Put this one into grandpa's medicine and boil it. Take one every month and boil it in the medicine. Eat it six times in a row, and his illness should be cured." She also warned, "Green bird's nest is extremely precious. Mommy, don't try to take it casually."

Chen Ahfu agreed and took the green bird's nest. He smelled it and found a light and lingering fragrance, similar to the fragrance in this space. Fortunately, he put it into the medicine. If he drank it with water, it would be hard to explain its fragrance.

Before leaving the space, Chen Ahfu picked up the two bags of broken gold and gems and asked, "Jinjin, these things are not from the tree. Can Mommy take them out and sell them?"

Jin Yanzi took a look and said, "This is the leftover material from building my house. Mommy can sell it if you want."

Chen Ahfu was very happy, but after thinking for a while, he put the small package back where it was and said, "If you want to sell it, you have to find an excuse. You can't just fall and pick up a piece of gold. That will easily arouse suspicion."

Jin Yanzi said, "Mommy, you are still stupid and you can't even figure out such a simple thing. Why don't you let Dabao fall and pick up a piece of gold?"

The naughty kid's mouth is really annoying, and even the nice things he says are not pleasing.

But Chen Ahfu was squeezed and had no choice. He laughed, "Okay, let's find a chance to make Dabao fall." He picked up the bag of leaves and asked, "I also picked up these leaves from the ground. Can I take them out? They smell better than the Chanel in my previous life."

Jin Yanzi looked at her as if she were an idiot and said, "You just treat it as perfume? Fu Ma, you're almost pissing me off. No, I have to go find Qiqi and Huihui to cheer me up." After saying that, she disappeared in a flash of black light.

The implication is that this leaf has other uses? How can I know if it doesn't tell me? My child has very little patience, so I'll ask it later after I've made it happy.

Chen Ahfu came out of the space and went to the kitchen. Wang was boiling medicine, so he threw the green bird's nest into the medicine jar while she was not paying attention. Although the smell of medicine was very strong, there was still a faint fragrance wafting away, which made people feel refreshed.

Chen Ahfu went to the backyard again and coaxed Jin Yanzi to take Qiqi and Huihui back to the woods to play first, and then invite them to live permanently after their new house was built. Their voices were so loud that they could be heard in the house even in the backyard. This sound would make a normal person panic, let alone Chen Ming, who was a patient.

Qiqi and Huihui didn't want to leave yet, and kept calling Chen Afu "Mom". Their voices were just like Chen Dabao's, so cute. The golden swallow whispered to them for a while before reluctantly flying away.

That piece of green bird's nest was really effective. Chen Ming felt better in the second half of the day. He was obviously more energetic than before and coughed less often. The whole family was extremely happy.

The golden swallow came back two days later, and this time it brought back three beautiful kingfishers. It said, "These are the most beautiful birds in the forest. They don't sing loudly and don't like to sing."

These birds are so beautiful, the feathers of the three birds are different colors, all bright and shiny, and the beaks are long and pointed. Chen Ahfu knew that making jadeite jewelry was popular in this era, and it would be a pity to catch such beautiful birds.

Before daybreak, they quickly asked the golden swallows to send them back to the woods.

Ten days later, Jin Yanzi brought the bird back again, saying it was the best singing bird. Their voices were indeed beautiful, melodious and lingering for three days. But they liked to sing at night, and Chen Ming almost had a seizure again, so he quickly drove them away.

In addition, it brought back gold jewelry three times. Even with so much gold, it said it was not enough to build a house and had to keep stealing.

Later, Chen Afu realized that the forest that Jin Yanzi was talking about was actually the deep part of Honglin Mountain, which belongs to the Yanshan Mountain Range and is rarely visited by people. However, Jin Yanzi was so powerful that Chen Afu was not worried about its safety.

Finally it was June 18th, and the family had worked hard to make 52 sewing baskets and eight sewing kits.

Chen Ahfu suggested that the prices of large, medium and small sewing baskets be 70, 80 and 90 wen respectively. Chen Ming and Wang Shi both accepted this suggestion, thinking it was fair and not expensive. Anyone with some spare money could afford it.

She also suggested that the price of a sewing kit be set at ten taels of silver for the time being. When it comes to the actual price, she really doesn't dare to set it at the price of a top luxury product.

She estimated the value of silver in the Dashun Dynasty through grain trading, and ten taels of silver was equivalent to 6,000 yuan in the current world. In the previous life, many middle-class people spent more than 6,000 yuan to buy a bag, and she bought two.

This era was relatively affluent, and except for the occasional wars at the border, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. There were also wealthy families who spent thousands of taels of silver to buy a rare orchid or top-quality embroidery. Ten taels of silver for a top-quality sewing kit with a button reform and the first cartoon dog would probably be bought.

Chen Ming was still a little surprised. "It's just a sewing kit, it's so expensive, how can anyone buy it?"

Chen Ahfu said, "Exquisite embroidery works would cost dozens or even thousands of taels of silver. This sewing kit is exquisite, beautiful, and practical, and the buttons are extremely exquisite. Selling it for ten taels of silver is not expensive. This price is not only for the sewing kit, but also for the design of the buttons. If they are skillful and can figure out the tricks of the buttons, they can use this kind of buttons to make clothes in the future, which will be even better."

Wang was also a little hesitant and said, "We are a vendor, not an embroidery shop. We may be able to sell it at this price in an embroidery shop, but we...how about we sell this bag to the embroidery shop?"
