Zhan Zhumen

Chapter 133
"Sister Huo, are you there?"

"Hey, come here!" Yang responded loudly, and walked quickly to open the door.

Soon a young woman was led into the yard.

"This is my daughter Huo Xi, and this is Aunt Guan who is diagonally opposite from us."

"Good morning, Aunt Guan."

"Is this a girl?" The young woman looked like Xiaojiabiyu, and she was very surprised when she saw Huo Xi dressed in boyish attire.

Huo Xi smiled at her: "It's so convenient."

"She usually fishes with us on the water, sells goods, and dresses up as a boy to facilitate walking." Yang explained with a smile.

This Guan family didn't have any children yet, so he stared at Huo Xi very strangely.

Knowing that Mrs. Guan came to see the fur goods, Huo Xi hurriedly ran to the house to carry the fur goods.

While yelling towards the wing room: "Uncle, get up soon!"

"Are there any men in your yard?"

Guan's face flushed red all of a sudden, she covered her face and turned around to leave.

Yang hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold her: "My younger brother is still young, less than ten years old. He's still a kid, and he was still wetting the bed two years ago!"

Mrs. Guan was half-believing, seeing half of the big boys walking out of the room rubbing their eyes, staring at Mrs. Yang with pouts, let out a light breath, and smiled awkwardly at Mrs. Yang.

Yang also let out a sigh of relief in her heart, this scholar is really particular.

Guan was picking and choosing from a lot of leather goods, but he was not interested in a pile of linen.

Generally, the family can support a scholar, and even send them to the capital to study and take an exam. The family does not say that the family is rich or small, but it is better than the ordinary people's family, for sure.Scholars all wear long gowns. Who do you see wearing long gowns made of linen?

Well, I can't think that wearing a long gown made of linen is not ostentatious enough.

lose face.

Seeing that Mrs. Guan picked out seven or eight furs, Huo Xi looked her over, and seeing that she still had a jade hairpin on her head and a jade bracelet on her hand, she gave Yang Fu a wink.

After Yang Fu took out several packs of brown sugar and candied dates, he said to Mrs. Guan: "Aunt Guan, let's take a look at the sucrose from the south, and the candied dates from the north. They are also very good."

When Yang saw it, he enthusiastically asked Guan to try it, repeating the same rhetoric that he had sold yesterday.

"Brown sugar boiled eggs with distiller's grains? Is the effect really that good?"

"Okay, okay. You'll know once you've tried it. If you're not used to distiller's grains, you can cook eggs with brown sugar."

Guan put down the leather goods, picked up some brown sugar with his fingers, put it into his mouth, sipped it lightly, and nodded.

"Here, boiled eggs with brown sugar and wine lees, can men eat?" Guan asked in a very low voice.

Yang was stunned for a moment, then looked at Huo Xi.

Huo Xi nodded: "Yes. A man can nourish his energy and blood after eating it, and he can refresh himself."

Invigorating qi and nourishing blood, Guan Shi didn’t respond, but when he heard that he was refreshed, he immediately ordered several packs per catty: “You, don’t you have any distiller’s grains?”

"I don't have any at home, but we have a lot of distilleries in the capital, and distiller's grains are not difficult to buy."

Guan Shi pursed her lips.

Seeing this, Huo Xi rolled her eyes: "Does my aunt's uncle not drink alcohol?"

Guan Shi smiled and shook his head: "Never drink."

Huo Xi expressed his understanding.The men in the family don't drink it, so a woman like Guan who abides by etiquette probably won't go to a wine shop where men gather to buy distiller's grains.

"If Aunt Guan wants it, my family can help buy some. My family also helps some people in the alley to buy vegetables and firewood. If Auntie still needs eggs, my family can also help you to collect some in the village."

Guan's eyes lit up, if someone really delivered the goods to the door, it would be great if she didn't have to go out.

"Really? Can you buy it for us and deliver it to your door?"

Mrs. Yang took a look at Huo Xi and nodded: "Yes, yes. We are in the same alley. You buy goods, and I make money. I am too happy. I can't refuse. My family can sell cloth and sugar, and I can also help. You look for something else."

"That's really a big thank you."

After Guan finished speaking, he looked at the brown sugar in his hand: "I'm going to try some of the recipe that Huo's sister-in-law said just now, and my husband will also eat it together. Please help me buy some distiller's grains and eggs. Oh, by the way, firewood, I also want vegetables."

Hearing that Huo's family was still selling some groceries on the water, and mentioned some daily necessities, Yang nodded and kept it in mind.

"My family originally only sold goods on the water, mainly for the convenience of fishermen on the water. It is not easy for everyone to go to the city, which delays work. And there is no one watching the boat at the ferry in the outer city, so my family will help everyone bring some goods. If our Qiong Neighbors in Huaxiang, if you need it, just come to my house and tell us, and we will do it easily."

"That's great." Guan Shi was infected by Yang Shi's enthusiasm, so he talked with Yang Shi about their own affairs.

She had just been married for a year, and after her husband's provincial examination, she accompanied her husband to Beijing to prepare for next year's spring.If you pass the exam, you will be sent out together, if you fail, you will also plan to study in Beijing for a few years.

Usually, she only does some housework at home, and doesn't like to go out in leisure time.

Wouldn't it be great if someone delivered the vegetables and daily necessities to the door, as if hiring a servant from outside?If the daily food and needs are solved, there is no need to buy book boys and maids.

She and her husband are just newly married, and it's time to mix oil with honey, and she doesn't want outsiders to be mixed in.

Husband and wife need money to study and socialize everywhere. If they pass the exam, they need money to take care of it. If they fail the exam, they need to prepare three years of expenses for their studies.Can save a little is a little.

Hearing that Mrs. Yang still went to the weavers' house to collect and sell cloth, he ordered a few more bolts of cotton cloth.

Yang was very happy.

Huo Xi was also happy, this inadvertently, mother brought another business for the family?
This is group buying, right?Write down the needs of each family in Qionghua Lane, pack them together for purchase, and then distribute them?Delivery?

hiss……

It seems that the shopping habits of the people nowadays are quite different from those in her life.In her life, everyone was willing to go out to buy and shop, and let go of the house, but nowadays men like to be shopkeepers and ignore household affairs.Women don't like to show their faces, and they don't step out of the door.

And the traffic is not convenient.

Why are there so many shopkeepers?

Hey, it seems that this business can be done, not to mention better than fishing, but why not take an extra business and make more money?
Isn’t this business just a little bit bigger, customers start from scratch, gradually increase, new customers become regular customers, regular customers become repeat customers, and then become more and more sticky?
hiss……

Mrs. Yang sent Mrs. Guan away, and when she came back, she saw Huo Xi twisting her two small, curved eyebrows and resting her chin in thought, while Yang Fu stood aside and looked at her quietly.

Yang sneered and laughed.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Mother, you have won a lot of business for the family today!"

Mrs. Yang didn't quite understand, she thought it was about Mrs. Guan's purchase just now.Good guy, I thought the other party was just here to buy leather goods, but in the end he bought not only eight leather goods, but also three catties of brown sugar, four catties of candied fruit, and five catties of red dates.

How much silver is this?count.
