The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 708 Auspicious Villa (2)
Qing Shu didn't ask any more questions, but changed the subject, and just ordered Shopkeeper Pan to invite Mr. Accountant over.

At this time, Fu Huan came back and reported that the guard Luo had gone to work.

Qing Shu nodded, stayed in the shop for another hour, then left the shop and drove back to Chen's residence.

The next day, Qing Shu took another trip to Jixiang Village while the shop opened.

Coincidentally, the plainly dressed girl I saw in the shop yesterday was also there.This girl is dressed in a cloth hairpin skirt, she has delicate features and is very lovely.With a bamboo basket on her left arm, she was talking to shopkeeper Pan standing inside the counter.

Shopkeeper Pan, "Miss Lan, I know you are in urgent need of money, and you want to take on more small jobs such as making purses and embroidering brocade handkerchiefs. It's just that the Chinese New Year is coming, and the purses and brocade handkerchiefs collected from Zhuangzi have already been saved. At least, this kind of work will not be sent out a few years ago."

The girl with delicate features is also the blue girl that shopkeeper Pan said.After listening to shopkeeper Pan's words, she became a little sad.After being silent for a few seconds, she said with a begging look on her face, "Master Pan, thanks to your care, Yuan'er is able to earn some money from time to time to go back to supplement the family. Yuan'er is grateful for your care, I shouldn't embarrass you. It's just that my mother fell ill last night, so I invited a doctor to see her overnight. The consultation fee and six medicines for three days cost more than three liang of money at once. The money I saved for the New Year is almost It's exhausted. Shopkeeper Pan, please do me a favor, if you have any work to earn money, take care of Yuan'er first, okay?"

Shopkeeper Pan looked distressed, thought and thought, and said, "There is a big embroidery job for the screen surface. It's just..."

Lan Yuan's eyes lit up, and she said eagerly, "Master Pan, if you have something to say, just say it." Embroidering screen surface is indeed a big job, depending on the difficulty of embroidery and the level of embroidery skills, the wages range from one to two. Silver to three or four taels of silver.Furthermore, this kind of work is usually done by the exclusive embroiderer in the shop, and it is rarely assigned to outsiders like her.

Shopkeeper Pan said unhurriedly, "The key point is that the master is in a hurry to embroider the job within seven days, and the embroidery must be fine. The wages are one or two and a half silver."

"Seven days." The excitement on Lan Yuan's face faded.The screen surface is a big embroidery job, and it will take more than ten days to embroider, unless you embroider without sleep.

Shopkeeper Pan said again, "The master is in a hurry. I planned to hand it over to the two embroiderers. If I hadn't heard about Miss Lan's difficulties, I wouldn't even have mentioned it."

Lan Yuan heard this, and thought of the difficult life at home, such a good opportunity must not be missed.So, she said firmly, "Thank you, shopkeeper Pan! Don't worry, I will be able to embroider it within seven days with all my strength and effort." Then she took off the basket on her arm, Put it on the counter, "Here is the embroidery work that was picked up five days ago. You check it and put it away. I don't need wages. Seven days later, you collect the screen noodles and pay me for the screen noodles."

Shopkeeper Pan was satisfied after hearing this, and thought that Lan Yuan was indeed a girl who would come to trouble, and it was not in vain for her to take care of her everywhere on weekdays.Although Lan Yuan's wages for the embroidery work this time were small, Lan Yuan cleverly expressed her gratitude.But the ugly words must be said first, and shopkeeper Pan asked, "Are you sure you can finish the embroidery within seven days?"

Lan Yuan swore on the spot, thanked shopkeeper Pan again and again, and hurried back with her screen embroidery.

After dismissing Lan Yuan, shopkeeper Pan moved his chubby body and came out from behind the counter, "I've seen my boss."

At this time, there were no customers in the shop, and Qing Shu had already looked over all the goods displayed on the shop.She smiled slightly at Shopkeeper Pan, "The Luo Jin you mentioned yesterday, there are two in the carriage." After she finished speaking, she turned her face and said to Xiao Juan beside her, "Take them to get it."

Luo brocade is a new top-quality brocade in the south this year.Because of its cumbersome weavers and extremely high difficulty in printing and dyeing patterns, the number of weaves is very limited.Therefore, Luo Jin basically sold to the capital, and most of them were sent to the palace gate, and Jinyang City has not yet.The noble ladies and noble ladies in Jinyang City heard of Luo Jin's reputation and asked around to buy it back.But even if they have a lot of silver in their hands, they have nowhere to buy it.

When shopkeeper Pan mentioned this to Qingshu yesterday, Qingshu casually said that he had more than a dozen horses in his hand.Shopkeeper Pan was so excited that he asked Qingshu if he could take out a horse and give it to Jixiangzhuang as the treasure of the shop.There are many large and small silk and satin shops in Jinyang City, but no one sells Luo Jin at present.Shopkeeper Pan's plan rang loudly.She thought, there are no other shops, but Jixiangzhuang has one, which will definitely attract the attention of countless wealthy guests.In this way, not only can the reputation of Jixiangzhuang be established, but also it will be of great help to the business of the shop.

Qingshu laughed at that time, and said that he would send two horses over the next day.The dozen or so Luo Jin in her hand were given to her by Zhou Boyan's caravan.At that time, she only knew that this Luo brocade was the best brocade available in the South this year, but she didn't know that Jinyang City didn't sell any of it.When she came to Jinyang City, she brought four horses. She originally planned to give two horses to Mrs. Chen, one horse to Chen Qiaojiang's mother, and one horse to Chen Xuan, Chen Qiaojiang's cousin who was about to get married.

Shopkeeper Pan asked yesterday, but Qing Shu, who hadn't delivered the gift yet, changed her mind.This morning, Mrs. Chen sent two Luo Jin over there, and the remaining two were brought directly to Jixiang Village.For Chen Qiaojiang's mother-in-law, Qingshu gave other things.Chen Xuan's makeup on Qingshu's side was a complete set of gold jewelry bought by Jingcheng Treasure Pavilion that had been prepared long ago.And the new year gifts brought to the Chen family were carefully prepared by Qingshu, with high standards.Therefore, even if Luo Jin was not sent, Qing Shu's gift to the Chen family was already very good.

Zhuangzi got two Luojin horses, and shopkeeper Pan was so happy from ear to ear.She immediately assigned someone to set up a big sign outside, and wrote: Tomorrow, I will get a piece of Luo Jin in the village, 100 taels, the highest price will get it.

Qing Shu let shopkeeper Pan toss about, without any intention of interfering.She left Jixiangzhuang and went to Guji Steamed Bun Shop.

Time flies, and another day passes in a blink of an eye.It's still dark outside, and it's freezing cold, which is the time for people to lie in warm blankets.Inside the Chen Mansion, however, the lights were brightly lit, and the servants were busy coming in and out.

Qing Shu has already woken up, but she has no intention of getting up while lying in bed.She just needs to wash up before Chen Qiaojiang's sister-in-law goes out, and then go to watch the ceremony.

Xiaojuan and Fu Huan had already gotten up, walking around the outside with light hands and feet.Xiaoyu stayed in Qingyang, Qinghao, and Luo Xiaorong's house to serve, so he was not here.

After Qingshu lay down for a while, Xiaojuan opened the door and walked into the room.

Qing Shu opened her eyes, "What time is it?"

Xiaojuan put the charcoal basin under the bed, "Miss can sleep for a while when it's Yinshi. When the time comes, the servant will wake the lady up."

Qing Shu groaned, closed her eyes and said nothing.
