Chapter 71
Liu Yu finally selected sixteen pieces of material, and the sixteen pieces of material were stacked on the cabinet, which looked quite spectacular.
Because the materials were selected according to the order of the counters, the last group happened to be the one that Lu Chengzhang was usually in charge of, so the staff put all the materials on the counters of Lu Chengzhang's group.
After choosing everything, Liu Yu and Lu Xun said: "Uncle Lu, I will take these first today."
Lu Xun smiled brightly: "Okay, I will settle the bill for you."
Then he took an abacus from the cabinet, thought about it, Liu Yu sells this as a ready-made garment, so it’s no better than buying at zero. There are more than a dozen types of cloth Liu Yu is afraid that it will be difficult to remember the price of each style, so he greeted Lu Chengxiao and said, "Go and write a list for Yuer. Come on, she can make a reference when she goes back."
After staying in the shop for a long time, Lu Chengxiao was already familiar with the prices, so he answered and went to the back hall to get pen and ink to write the invoice.
On Lu Xun's side, the five fingers were flying with the beads, and after a beep, he glanced at two customers in the distance, and reported the number in a low voice: "Fifteen taels, and the change will be wiped off. Fifteen taels."
Lu Chengzhang's expression froze for a moment, and he looked sideways at Lu Xun in surprise.
After selling the cloth for several years, he knew very well the price of his own various types of cloth. The retail price of these cloths was at least twenty-seven or eight taels, and the cloth price his father gave to the Liu family was their own cost price.
He reacted too much, and looked at Lu Xun almost subconsciously. How could Lu Xun, who has been doing business for half his life, not notice it? He saw it from the corner of his eye, but his expression remained unchanged, even the smile lines on his face did not change. He seemed to be unaware of the second son's gaffe at that moment, but smiled and praised Wei: "Yu'er has a very good eye, these are the best-selling materials this summer."
Wei Shi and Liu Yu actually also saw Lu Chengzhang's reaction just now, but the old and the young are also mature characters, and their reactions are exactly the same as Lu Xun's. They smiled and answered a few words modestly, The other thanked Lu Xun for taking the money bag to pay.
Only Lu Chengzhang thought that no one had noticed, but he also knew that this reaction was inappropriate, so he quickly calmed down his expression.
Liu Yu took fifteen taels of silver and handed it to Lu Xun. Lu Xun took it and turned around and handed it to Lu Chengzhang who was beside him.
Wei Shidao came here with his own mule cart, please move it into the mule cart.
Lu Chengzhang called his assistants to help move the fabric, and the three members of the Liu family also helped move it together. There were only father and son left at the counter in Lu Chengzhang. Lu Chengzhang immediately said, "Father, what is the price you gave..."
Lu Xun turned his head to look at Lu Chengzhang, the corners of his lips were still hooked, but with that look, Lu Chengzhang couldn't continue to say what he said.
"Keep talking."
Lu Chengzhang still couldn't see that his father had any objections to him, so he lowered his head and said, "Nothing."
Lu Xun stared at Lu Chengzhang for a long time, then said in a low voice: "We do business Dealing with money, but it would be too sad if only money is left in your eyes, you should think about it for yourself." With
just these words, Lu Xun left the locker and went to the backyard.
When they arrived in the backyard, they saw Liu's family loading cloth into a car, and called Zhou to serve hot tea again.
Wei hurriedly declined: "Master Lu, don't be so troublesome. You have been bothering me for a long time. You are also busy with business. We will be back soon."
She repeatedly declined, but Lu Xun didn't insist anymore. Shi and Liu Yu suggested: "I see that Yu'er has good vision and craftsmanship. If you can continue to do consignment sales now, you can consider doing it for a while, so that you can save more money and go directly to the county to open an embroidery shop than you. Better to drive in town now."
After Liu Yu saw today's income of ten taels of silver, she actually had such thoughts. It seemed that the capital was not as difficult to save as she thought. Now that she heard Lu Xun's suggestion like this, she couldn't help but go to see Wei.
The Wei family was also moved. If it can be opened directly in the county, even if it is delayed by two or three seasons, it will be a good deal to open next year. The shops in the county are completely different from the shops in the town. She said: "It is possible. Ask my boss to inquire, if there is a shop that pays the rent on a quarterly basis, we will give it a go."
Lu Xun laughed, "That's the reason, the most difficult thing to find in this county is a good shop. If there is a shop, don't It doesn’t matter, take down the shop first, and if you don’t have enough money to stock up, you can get credit from me for a while, or you can buy a small amount first, as long as you open the shop, everything will be easy later.”
No matter what Whether to accept this helping hand or not, the Qingwei family accepts it, thank you politely.
On the other side, Lu Chengxiao wrote the invoice, and waited for a while until the ink dried up. Hearing that the Liu family outside seemed to be leaving, he hurriedly took the invoice and sent it out. He gave the invoice to Liu Yu, and said in a low voice: " The bids are all market prices, my father calculated for you it should be 50% and 50%, and you can convert it to the purchase price."
50% was originally decided by Lu Xun when Lu Chengxiao first talked about it with Lu Xun, It is a cost price based on the Lu family's purchase price plus shipping costs.
Liu Yu hurriedly thanked her in a low voice, and took the order, only to realize that Lu Chengxiao wrote excellent handwriting, but unfortunately she is "illiterate" at the moment, and she can't even give a compliment, so she can only fold it and put it in her sleeve pocket middle.
Knowing that she was leaving soon, Lu Chengxiao felt rather sad, and couldn't say much because of the presence of his elders, so he asked Liu Yu in a low voice, "Are you at home these days, do you catch up with sewing every day?"
Liu Yu knew what he meant . , smiled and said: "Fortunately, I didn't feel very tired when I did it with my aunt."
How can I not be tired? Lu Chengxiao thought for a while and said: "You can do the cutting and embroidery, sewing, please Auntie will help you see if there are any women who are good at sewing in the village, and ask one or two to help out at home. You can save a lot on paying the wages, and you can make more ready-made clothes in time for the current peak season. Maybe earn more."
Liu Yu's eyes lit up, that's right, with just her and the auntie, it took only half a month to make seven sets of clothes, and now Second Sister Cui's shop only has the set she asked the embroiderer to bring over today. Waiting for another seven or eight days for her to send a few pieces over, it will delay the time of selling the goods.
"You have a good idea. I'll discuss it with my aunt when I get back today."
Lu Chengxiao liked to see Liu Yu like this, with his eyes black and bright, and his spirit high.
It turns out that he likes doing business so much. With a smile in his eyes, he moved his fingertips lightly, restraining the inexplicable urge to touch her eyebrows at this moment.
Wei Shi and Lu Xun watched from the sidelines, and couldn't help but smile on their faces. Lu Xun really wanted to ask if he could invite a matchmaker to Liu's house to propose a marriage for his stupid son in August. After thinking about it, he held back Yes, there are still three months left, let Mrs. Chen go to mention it in July. Let the silly boy rush, this process should be very beautiful in the future. At Liu Yanping's place, the last piece of fabric was neatly tied
up. He jumped out of the car and said to Wei Shi, "Mother, it's all done."
Liu Yu opened the curtain, but when he saw the carriage, he put down the curtain: "No, there are too many piles of fabrics, and it's too crowded for people to sit on it. I'll drive the car to take you back."
Wei hurriedly lifted the curtain to look After looking at it, I can actually sit, but people have to be next to the door, so I hurriedly said no, "It's too long to go back and forth, we can go back by ourselves."
Lu Chengxiao didn't listen to her, "No trouble, I'm fine , Wait a minute, I'm going to hitch the cart right now."
Even Babao didn't even call for it, and went to hitch the mule cart by himself.
Mrs. Wei wanted to stop him, but Lu Xun also said: "The shop is full of people. It's true that he has nothing to do. Let Cheng Xiao send you off." The
father and son said one by one, and it was really settled like this, Zhou Qiongying is not far away Chu was dumbfounded, she saw how her uncle doted on Liu Yu today, a young man with angry horses and fresh clothes, besides farming, he can also drive a cart and be a coachman.
When the mule cart got out, Zhou Qiongying suddenly remembered, isn't Babao just tallying the goods in the warehouse next door?
This is... in order to give it to someone in person, even snatching the job of the servant?
Lu Chengxiao, who robbed the servant's job, drove all the way to Liu's house, took a cup of tea from Liu Yu, and the brown rabbit raised by Liu Yu, who was not afraid of life at all, jumped to his feet and pasted it, feeling extremely happy up.
If he wasn't afraid that Mrs. Wei would invite him to dinner again and cause trouble, he would have stayed at Liu's house for a while, even if he was chatting with Liu Yanping, or staying in the two courtyards of the same house with Liu Yu. Very satisfied.
However, looking at the time, I still can only take a dip in the tea and leave.
Seeing that he was about to leave when he first arrived, Wei decided to keep him, but Lu Chengxiao thought that every time he came by himself, Wei and Liu Yu would have to work in the kitchen for more than an hour, so he shook his head decisively, told Liu Yu not to be too tired, and left in a hurry gone.
After sending him away, Wei smiled and teased Liu Yu: "
I'm afraid I won't be able to keep you for long." Liu Yu hugged Wei's arm and said with a smile: "That's not possible. It’s my aunt, but she promised to give the three elder brothers a daughter-in-law.”
Liu Yanping folded her arms and teased: “It’s for your dowry.”
Wei Shi laughed, but asked Liu Yu seriously: “Today in the Lu’s shop , can you see what is coming?"
Liu Yu raised her eyebrows: "You mean Erlang of the Lu family?"
Wei Shi nodded.
Liu Yu smiled, and said: "There are all kinds of people, Lu Chengxiao is good, his parents are good, that's fine, as for the others, it's fine on the outside, I don't think it matters."
Wei patted her hand, Said: "You can count as long as you can. In the future, I will go to the Lu family to get cloth. It will still be the same as this time. At least
ten pieces at a time will save people's tongue." Wei Shi and Liu Yu are too lazy to care about it, it is better to ignore it.
