Chapter 30 Lazy Cat
When shopkeeper Feng took a look at the packaging, he didn't think it was that outstanding. It was even a little rough, so he felt a little disgusted.
Although clam oil is packed with clam shells, it is not expensive and is relatively simple. However, the name of ice cream sounds very high-end, and such a porcelain bottle may not be sold at a high price.
But as soon as I got closer, I could smell the fragrant fragrance. Shopkeeper Feng was looking forward to the cream inside.
When he opened the porcelain bottle and saw the delicate, white and moist paste inside, Shopkeeper Feng's eyes lit up.
Dip a little with your fingers and spread it on the back of your hand. It is moist and light, making even his rough old hands feel comfortable, and even seems to be much more delicate. It is not greasy like clam oil, and its rich aroma is more suitable for ladies.
Shopkeeper Feng was even more disgusted with this porcelain bottle. He really couldn't hold it back and said helplessly, "Little shopkeeper, can't you use a better bottle?"
Lin Xiaoman blinked innocently, "I can't help it. I also want to buy a good one, but I really don't have the means. Besides, good-looking porcelain bottles are so expensive. Shopkeeper Feng will deal with it. Let's negotiate a good price. From now on,
Shopkeeper Feng just looks for a good-looking porcelain vase."
Shopkeeper Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he also knew that Lin Xiaoman was telling the truth. How expensive is a good-looking porcelain vase? Their siblings didn't look like they belonged to a wealthy family, and they couldn't find a way to buy it.
"How much does the shopkeeper want to sell a bottle of cream like this?" He thought for a moment and said, "Not counting the porcelain bottle."
Lin Xiaoman was amused by him and laughed, "Well, not counting the porcelain bottle! The cost of my cream is much more expensive than the clam oil, so the price is naturally higher. I think twenty cents for a bottle like this is not too much, right?"
/p>
When her mother was alive, she would also buy some rouge and gouache in the rouge shop. Which of the better ones cost more than a hundred dollars? The price she asked left enough room for shopkeeper Feng to make money.
Sure enough, shopkeeper Feng had a look of surprise on his face after hearing this, but he still didn't respond. "How many bottles did the shopkeeper bring this time? I'll keep them for a few days to try. It'll be fine for later use. We will cooperate more in the future."
."
Lin Xiaoman didn't think that Shopkeeper Feng was wrong in doing this. Naturally, the more careful she is when selling rouge and gouache, the better. She also checked online after buying the cream on the way home. She knew that these creams were old domestic brands and how many people had verified them.
It’s a good thing, otherwise I wouldn’t dare to sell it so rashly.
He took out five bottles from the basket, "I only took five bottles this time because I wanted Shopkeeper Feng to try them." At the same time, he took out a few bottles of small balm.
Compared with the porcelain bottles containing cream, these small porcelain bottles are much more delicate. At least shopkeeper Feng was very satisfied after seeing them.
"Is this also cream?"
After saying that, I took one and opened it. I saw that there was some paste like clam oil inside. It was not as oily as clam oil, but it smelled better than ice cream.
Lin Xiaoman also took one, sipped it lightly with his fingers, rubbed it on the back of his hand, brought it to his nose and smelled it, "This is the balm, just apply a little on your neck and wrists.
It can smell good all day long."
Shopkeeper Feng looked at Lin Xiaoman as if he were looking at the God of Wealth. Although there are scented bath beans here, the fragrance does not last long and the smell is not that good. The balm can last all day.
If you put it in a place like Fucheng or Beijing, you won't have to worry about selling it for just one tael of silver per box.
This time, Lin Xiaoman directly offered a price of 100 wen. Shopkeeper Feng didn't even hesitate and immediately bought all the 100 bottles of balm that Lin Xiaoman brought.
After calculating the accounts again, Lin Xiaoman earned more than 10,000 copper coins from just these balms and creams.
Lin Xiaoman asked Shopkeeper Feng to exchange them for nine taels of silver and more than one thousand Wen, so that it would be more convenient to carry them around.
After coming out of Feng Ji Rouge Shop, Lin Xiaoman is also a young rich woman.
I found Yahang and asked who had a yard for rent. The Yahang people mentioned a few places. Lin Xiaoman finally chose two places not far from their hot pot restaurant and asked the Yahang people to take them there to have a look.
It just so happened that these two places were owned by Yahang, so the people from Yahang worked harder to introduce them.
One is a courtyard upon entering, with three main rooms and two east and west wing rooms. There is a well in the courtyard. Apart from a few wooden beds, there is no other furniture in the house. It can be seen that it has always been rented to workers.<
/p>
The monthly rent is 500 yuan. After Lin Xiaoman read it, he thought it was okay, so he wrote it down first.
I went to look at another one, which has a two-entry courtyard, with a total of more than a dozen rooms in the front and back yards plus the main room. It is also rented out all year round, and it also has a large wooden plank shop.
Because the yard is large and there are many rooms, the monthly rent here is one tael of silver.
Lin Xiaoman thought that more people might come to the city to help in the future, so he rented both yards and told the people in Yaxing that he wanted to set up a fire bed here.
The people in Yaxing had never heard of a fire kang, but when they heard Lin Xiaoman talk about the benefits of living in a fire kang in winter, their eyes immediately brightened up. When Lin Xiaoman built a fire kang, if he didn't rent it anymore, they would use the gimmick of a fire kang.
Renting a house out may also be more expensive.
Even if the fire bed fails, the worst thing is that it will be done when the time comes.
Lin Xiaoman and Ya Xingren rented for three months first, paid the money, signed the lease deed, and walked back. They passed by the blacksmith shop and went in to take a look. When the blacksmith saw her coming, he pointed to a large pot in the corner.
The iron pot said: "I've finished one bite first. If you need it urgently, you can take it back first. It will take three days for the remaining two bites."
Lin Xiaoman was naturally full of joy. The stove was built and he was worried that there were not enough pots. This time he could relieve the pressure.
After giving him the money for a pot and putting the big iron pot on his back, Lin Xiaoman returned to the shop happily.
At this time, the store was already full of people, and the young man in green shirt from yesterday also came with the rugged book boy.
Today he is wearing a blue shirt. He is still handsome and handsome, and his face is not as cold as yesterday.
When he is satisfied with his meal, he can't help but squint his eyes, which reminds Lin Xiaoman of a ragdoll cat he saw there. It was equally graceful and luxurious, with a hint of laziness in its beauty.
What kind of wealthy family must be able to raise such a beautiful child? If he is from Qingping County, with his appearance and demeanor, she should have never heard of him.
There was a bowl of sour plum soup on the table beside him. After eating a few mouthfuls of chicken and vegetables, he would take a sip. After finishing the drink, he would ask the bookboy to go to the fourth grandma to serve another bowl.
Lin Xiaoman nodded secretly. When he came to eat hot pot chicken yesterday, he kept asking her and Erhu to add more pot, but he was considerate of the fourth grandma's old age and inconvenient legs and feet.
However, seeing the fourth grandma going back and forth between the tables, Lin Xiaoman thought that she would have to buy some big containers, so that the fourth grandma would not have to work so hard, and she could also have a few waiters to help serve the sour plum soup.
He took off the pot on his back and asked Lin Mao to move it to the backyard to open the pot and use it. This would also alleviate the problem of insufficient chicken supply.
Lin Mao took the pot and shouted, "Xiao Man, this pot came just in time. We are worried that the chicken in the pot will be sold out and there will be no new pot."
After saying that, he carried the pot and walked to the backyard, calling people as he walked, "Hurry, see if there is enough water in the tank? If not, hurry up and get water."
