Chapter 24 Shen Qingyan, it’s your turn to bargain

Originally, the purpose of making money was to improve my living standard. Now that I have a considerable amount of savings, I have to continue to live a hard life.

Liu Yue glanced around the four cubs up and down, and saw that Shen Jingcheng was wearing a white green shirt. The clothes of the others had many patches, and Shen Qingyan's clothes were obviously shorter.

Although Shen Qingyan was a good sewing expert, Liu Yue decided not to let him use this skill anymore.

Give her new clothes!

I also want to buy some beautiful headbands for Ling An. Little girls should dress up beautifully!

You can also go shopping and buy some beads and hairpins. If she still has the bracelets when she travels back in time, then these are antiques! She still wants to make the difference!

There must be some benefits from traveling through time!

Want to buy some more ancient snacks?

Forget it, she only had so much snacks! Besides, she just had tea at the pawn shop, and it tasted just so-so. She should spend and save, so she wouldn't spend this wasted money.

There is a wedding banquet the day after tomorrow, do I need to buy some wine and meat?

Although it was false, it was her first marriage after all, so she still didn't want to make it too simple.

After roughly making a shopping list in her mind, Liu Yue followed Shen Qingyan to the first stop of today's shopping - Buzhuang.

With money in her pocket, Liu Yue led her four little boys into the shop with great energy.

The shop assistants were similar to those who sold luxury goods in later generations. They greeted them enthusiastically, but as soon as they saw their clothes, they looked at them with a cold expression.

This is no longer the situation where she was just waiting for the other party to send money. Liu Yue had to spend money, so naturally she would not swallow her anger. She raised the money bag in her hand and ordered: "Show me the ingredients."

When the waiter heard the "clatter" sound of the silver colliding, he immediately changed his expression, smiled flatteringly and slapped himself twice: "You are a little dog who looks down on others. Madam, please come here."

The clerk led Liu Yue to the fabric area and enthusiastically introduced these flashy Luo Yansha to Liu Yue: "Madam, look at this is the most popular material in Qingzhou now. The clothes made are light and thin."

It's almost winter, what kind of clear and thin Luo Yansha should I wear? Does she look like someone who has been taken advantage of?

Liu Yue didn't even glance up from the corner of her eye, and walked directly towards the area where the cotton and linen materials were placed.

Seeing that Liu Yue was not fooled, the clerk began to introduce her honestly: "Madam, please see, this is undyed cotton. It is perfect for making linings. It can also be used to make spring and summer singles." , this is linen, which is more wear-resistant and stain-resistant, and is more suitable for outerwear and shoe fabrics. If the men at home have to do regular work, this fabric is more suitable."

The clerk could tell at a glance that the Shen family was a farmer. Although he wanted to trick the other party at the beginning, the recommendations he made later were more considerate.

Liu Yue was quite satisfied. She planned to make three sets of underwear and outerwear for each of her four children and herself, so she asked about the price.

The clerk rubbed his hands, knowing that this was a big deal, and smiled happily: "Cotton cloth is twenty cents per foot, and linen cloth is thirteen cents per foot. If Madam buys one directly, I will give you 560 cents for cotton and 350 cents for linen. "

Liu Yue didn't know the conversion unit here, nor how much cloth was used to make a suit, so she turned to look at Shen Qingyan.

Shen Qingyan understood it and explained thoughtfully: "A piece of cloth is thirty feet long. To make a suit, it will be about eighteen feet of cloth."

Then she will understand.

Liu Yue turned around and said the price was okay.

Shen Jingcheng was a little confused. He just thought that his eldest brother and his sister-in-law had no feelings, but when he turned around, he found that they had a tacit understanding.

So what is going on!

Can anyone explain it to him?

Liu Yue lowered her head to pick out fabrics and prepared a goose yellow and pink one for Ling An, which was cute and pink. She should wear light yellow and light pink to make her look youthful and beautiful without being too pretentious. Shen Qingyan wanted to For farm work, just choose navy blue and dull cyan. Anyway, he looks good, and he doesn’t look old if he wears this color. Yixiu and Jingcheng bought white and cyan, and blue and cyan, which is in line with their medical apprenticeships. and the identity of a scholar.

Buy another 9 pieces of cotton to make three sets of linings for each person!

Oh, by the way, I also need to buy the red cloth that I will need in the future! That one too!

Due to limited living standards, farmers' marriages are not as particular about phoenix crowns and beauties as in costume dramas. After all, they have to sew and mend a piece of clothing for four to five years, so how could they be willing to spend money to make a single outfit that can only be worn once? Wedding clothes, so the villagers in Yuhe Village usually just pull out two feet of red cloth to make a hijab for the bride and a belt for the groom when holding weddings.

Liu Yue was quite satisfied with the fabric she chose and motioned to her partner to do the math.

Shen Qingyan originally thought that Liu Yue wanted to make a few sets of clothes for herself. After all, she had been wearing his mother's old clothes during this period, which did not fit well. However, as Liu Yue chose more and more fabrics, she also From time to time, Shen Qingyan would take out a piece of cloth and mark it on their bodies, and then Shen Qingyan realized that the other party was planning to make some clothes for them.

Shen Qingyan stepped forward and stopped the clerk from dialing the abacus: "Miss Liu, just make yourself some clothes. We all still have clothes to wear."

Liu Yue naturally didn't intend to listen to him, but she knew very well that people like Shen Qingyan were arrogant at heart and would not accept charity from others. In the past, she had been reluctant to accept the food she had conjured up, but now even though the clothes she was wearing were already Even though he was full of patches, he was unwilling to accept Liu Yue's kindness.

Liu Yue put it another way: "If you hadn't helped me raise the price, I might have pawned the bracelet for eighty taels, so the extra ninety-five taels I make now is all due to you. You were my It’s a hard-earned fee! If you’re really embarrassed.”

Liu Yue leaned into Shen Qingyan's ear and lowered her voice and said, "Just help me lower the price so I can spend less."

Liu Yue's warm breath hit his face, Shen Qingyan blushed inexplicably, stepped back and gave a vague response.

He knew that the other party was not giving them alms, but really treating them as family members, so he thought about sharing the blessings. However, he had become accustomed to being independent in the past few years, and he was not used to relying on others for a while, so he couldn't turn around.

Just pretend that he borrowed it and he will pay it back in the future.

Pay double the amount.

The clerk also calculated the price: "The total is eighty-two, eight hundred and ninety cents. I'll add a zero and give you eighty-two, eight hundred cents."

Liu Yue didn't say anything, and motioned Shen Qingyan to come on with her eyes.

Shen Qingyan took a step forward and said: "Seven and a half!"

Liu Yue, the shopkeeper: "!"

If there is a price, you are really willing to give it a try!

The waiter smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, this price is too low. The shopkeeper won't agree to it!"

Shen Qingyan conscientiously completed the task assigned to him by Liu Yue and insisted on the price: "There is also a cloth shop in the next street."

The cloth shop in the next street is a rival to this shop. If the shopkeeper knew that he had given up such a large business to the rival shop, he would definitely be doomed.

The clerk reluctantly gave up the profit: "I will charge you at least eight taels."

"Deal." Shen Qingyan motioned to Liu Yue to pay.

Liu Yue opened the money bag in a daze, counted eight pieces of broken silver and handed it over.

Shen Qingyan has a bit of a talent for bargaining.

Liu Yue really understands Shen Qingyan's mentality, because she has been here like this, so she knows how to maintain the other person's self-esteem.
