The next day.
Zhao Dazhu and Zhao Taohua delivered the goods together, with two full buckets, and brought Zhao Sizhu and Zhao Sui'an along.
After the two buckets of ice powder were ready and the payment was made, Zhao Taohua took everyone to the cloth shop in town and bought three pieces of cloth, one gray, one dark blue, and one bean green.
"Oh, third sister, why did you buy so much cloth, and cotton at that? We can't wear this," Zhao Dazhu took a breath when he saw the price.
Most of today's income has been wiped out.
Now that the Zhao family's business is just starting out, it is indeed not appropriate to show off, but it also takes time to make clothes. By the time they are done, the ice jelly business will probably be almost done.
Then you won’t be afraid of showing off.
Zhao Taohua really couldn't stand the Zhao brothers, who were always in rags. She didn't feel sorry for them, but she felt sorry for her own daughter Sui'an, who was at the prime age of a budding girl, but was also dressed in rags.
As for why she had to buy more expensive cotton cloth, Zhao Taohua's thinking was even simpler. Clothes are to be worn for a long time, so if she was going to buy them, she had to buy good ones. Besides, coarse cloth was not comfortable to wear.
In her previous life, Zhao Taohua used silk casually, and she really couldn't stand it.
"Okay, let's get these first."
I’ll come back to buy more when I make money!
After paying the money, Zhao Taohua asked Zhao Dazhu to stuff the cotton cloth into a sack and wait for them outside. She took Sizhu and Sui'an to visit the only teacher in the town directly.
Master Zhao.
That’s right, everyone still has the surname Xi, but unfortunately they are not related at all. Sizhu used to go to school here, and Master Zhao also had some impression of him.
Master Zhao was teaching under the sign of a sage, and although he spoke with all the virtues of a sage, in reality he was calculating. As long as he could pay the tuition, everything would be fine.
There aren't many children studying in town, so I'll fool as many as I can. After all, the master will lead you to the door and you can practice as a person.
"...The tuition is the same as before, one month, plus room and board, and you can go home once every ten days. It's eight qianwen. But for the first month, you have to buy new books and writing materials. If you have better ones at home, that would be great. If not, you can all use my own. It will cost you one qian and nine qianwen in total."
Master Zhao was indifferent.
"Ninety..."
Zhao Sizhu was young and ignorant before, and he didn't know how dark the school was. Only after he worked as a laborer did he realize how difficult it was to earn these nine hundred yuan.
"Third sister, I..."
"Sit still."
Zhao Taohua remained calm and then talked to Master Zhao about Zhao Sizhu's problem. Since he had been delayed for a long time, it was inevitable that he would need some special treatment.
Master Zhao understood immediately, "If you want to add a separate class in the evening, it will be charged. Just add another two yuan."
Zhao Sizhu almost went berserk.
One thousand and one hundred yuan, why don’t you want my life!
"Sit still."
Zhao Taohua remained calm, nodded with a smile, and looked like she was thanking Mr. Zhao for his kindness. Seeing Zhao Taohua being so humble, Mr. Zhao finally showed a satisfied smile on his face.
It seems that he is not short of money. What he hates most is people who leave halfway through the course because they have no money. It makes him lose a lot of energy.
Finally, Zhao Taohua presented some small gifts of pastries. Of course, the pastries were high-end goods taken out from the space, and there were hardly any decent ones in the pastry shops in the town.
Mr. Zhao's only hobby is his greed. When he saw that the packaging was extraordinary, he immediately smiled.
"Okay, okay. If Sizhu is a promising talent, I will definitely give him my all."
"Thank you very much, sir. Goodbye. I will bring the Four Pillars to officially report tomorrow."
"Okay, okay..."
