Chapter 117 Worrying about losing hair
After a few days of training, the naughty kids' skills have improved. They used to climb over the wall many times when they were naughty, but now they are even more skilled. They immediately jumped out one after another like dumplings.
Crash——
The villagers passing by were so scared that they all screamed at the top of their lungs.
"You're going to die! You dare to make trouble in the Shen family? I don't want to be with you anymore!"
"Hush, before Chun girl finds out, quickly send her beast back. If she holds a grudge against me... I'm afraid I'll be living in fear for the rest of my life."
"Master, you are indeed far-sighted... Hurry! Don't just stand there and watch..."
In the yard.
Diao's lips twitched downwards, wanting to smile, but then feeling she shouldn't. She was always protective of her shortcomings, and couldn't stand hearing anyone speak ill of the eldest maid. But this time, she couldn't find a reason to be polite.
"Just do it. Once your reputation is ruined, I wonder how you can find a husband." Diao was heartbroken.
“…”
There is no big talk in the spring travel.
She really wanted to drag Ah Huai out and talk to him, but Diao Shi didn't give her a chance and rushed to cover her mouth.
"Xue is just a little bit stupid. If it doesn't work out, you two can just make do with each other. I'll reluctantly accept it. But there's one thing: he has to marry her in a formal way. The matter of the maidservant must never be mentioned again!"
Chen Chunxing shut up.
She wouldn't be fooled.
In ancient times, when a girl reached the age of fifteen, she was considered old enough to get married, so old ladies would not worry about it in advance.
"Since you said it's just a matter of making do, I'll have to think about it carefully. Life is nothing but birth, old age, sickness and death. Living is already difficult, so what's the point of making do?"
Diao opened her mouth for a long time, then mumbled, "It's not entirely a makeshift... Xiao Xue is still... quite pleasing to the eye..."
“Do I look like someone who judges appearances?
Chen Chunxing didn't give her a chance to confirm and changed the subject directly: "Business requires publicity. If you don't spread the word first, how can you attract big customers? Just wait and see. I know what's going on."
Although there are many poor people in the North, it is surrounded by several forces.
Whether it is the military, grassland tribes, or even Liuren City, they are all her targets.
Moreover, there is a shortcut waiting for you to take...
But she couldn't tell these things to Diao, and the old lady didn't want to find out the truth. She had questions in her mind, and it was enough for her to speak them out and get explanations.
Compared with many fellow villagers, the Shen family members are the ones who trust Shen Chunxing the most.
It took two days to prepare.
According to the previous division, everyone found a market to set up stalls.
This time Hu Zi was not left behind.
He was taken to the county town by the Shen family.
The good thing about collective business is that it doesn’t matter who steals the business.
Anyway, the price was set by Chen Chunxing, and they were all doing it under the guise of "Xiao Shi". After returning, they had to enter the public account records, so no one dared to have any ulterior motives in this regard.
After all, there are quite a few of them. If they are spread out, they can occupy more than 20 markets, basically covering the surrounding area.
If it's sold too cheaply, I can't bear to part with it. If it's sold too expensively, it will ruin the business if it gets to other places, but it will be a big deal if it gets to Chun Yatou's ears!
They don’t want to be kicked up and tortured after they die!
But this time, the business was not as easy as everyone expected.
When I was selling hot pot dishes before, the pickled dried radish was given as a complimentary side dish, which received unanimous praise from diners. Many people took the initiative to inquire about the price. However, I was busy making money at that time and did not have the time to pickle it in large quantities, so I gave up.
Now I have a stall alone, and although it attracts a lot of people to come and see what's new, not many people buy.
When those people asked, how did you sell it?
I learned that it was six wen and one liang.
I can’t bring myself to buy it.
You know, pork only costs a dozen cents per pound!
The stall owner had no choice but to explain with a smile that only one or two ounces of pickled vegetables can be obtained from one pound of fresh seasonal vegetables. After buying them, they are excellent to go with porridge or rice, and they are particularly durable. As long as you don't let them touch water when picking them up, one or two ounces can be eaten for half a month.
Only then did we sell a few.
But they are all sold in quantities of one or two taels, and less than two kilograms can be consumed in a day.
Thinking about the hundreds of pounds at home, everyone was worried to death.
So.
The Diao family welcomed the second wave of villagers who came to their house to talk nonsense.
One after another, more frequent than the previous time.
They talked about everything under the sun, but never got to the point. After chatting for a long time, he finally asked in a roundabout way, "How is the Shen family's business recently?"
Diao thought to herself, don’t you know whether it’s good or not?
Selling in the county town is no easier than in the countryside.
She saw it all and was worried, but her granddaughter acted as if nothing had happened, so she didn't say much to outsiders.
She couldn't say anything!
When it comes to doing business, the whole village is a layman and can only point to Chen Chunxing.
Just like that a few more days passed.
Everyone seemed to have accepted their fate. Fortunately, the weather in the north was cold and every household had a cellar. When it snowed at the end of last year, the Shen family asked them to store ice, which was now just the right amount to use to store pickles.
At worst, I can just sell it slowly.
However, Chen Chunxing didn't want to spend too much time on this business.
No matter how much you sell pickles, they can never be sold at the price of gold.
Time is precious, and there are many big deals waiting to be done.
She soon found the person she was waiting for.
This day, I returned from the stall.
Everyone appeared at the entrance of the village almost at the same time, greeted each other and chatted for a while.
“How much did you sell?”
"Well, it's still the same."
We exchanged information and analyzed where the products were selling well and where people were stingy. We decided not to go there next time.
He was getting excited.
Suddenly, a few children came running towards me, patting their buttocks and shouting.
"A distinguished guest has arrived from the Shen family!"
"He rode a tall horse and brought a lot of stuff!"
"Sister! Where is my sister Shen? They want to see my biological sister!"
When he stopped in front of the crowd, he didn't forget to shout - whoosh.
The villagers' faces turned black when they saw their own children.
I don't know where they learned this from! They are becoming more and more like monkeys!
Chen Chunxing stuck his head out of the carriage and glanced down furtively.
The more I look at it, the more guilty I feel.
She is sometimes too calm, and sometimes willing to be childish.
Anyway, all the idiots in the village put together can't play as well as she does.
Diao wanted to curse a few words, but when she realized the meaning of the words, her heart skipped a beat. She didn't bother to say anything and hurriedly asked Yang Yi to speed up the car.
Could it be that the rich man my granddaughter is waiting for has arrived?
The villagers watched the Shen family's mule cart go away, pondered for a long time, and then grabbed their children's ears.
"Did you hear what those nobles said they were here for?"
They are now learning skills in the Shen family. After finishing the literary classes, they have to take martial arts classes. Except for eating and sleeping, it is almost like they grow up in the Shen family. They don’t need to eavesdrop and can know some things naturally.
The naughty kid bared his teeth and said, "Looks like he's here to do some business..."
Everyone was stunned at first, then let go of their hands and ran towards the Shen family.
What business can we do at this time?
They didn't dare to think too much, but they had to think about it!
At this time at the Shen family.
From a distance, Wu Min was seen pacing at the door, with Shen Mingqiu beside her, looking helpless.
"Sister Min, can you take a break?"
Wu Min blushed, but she didn't stop. After seeing the people who came to visit the Shen family today, she couldn't stop anymore.
My heart was in my throat.
He wanted to reveal his identity regardless of the consequences, but was also afraid that it would be a disaster rather than a blessing.
She is actually quite satisfied with her current situation.
Although life in the narrow village is a bit hard, at least I can support myself, which is enough to give me hope.
It was still a long time before Wu Qing became an adult, so she had to think carefully about it.
