The Landlord And His Wife - Chapter 223
Liu Family, Feng County.
The willow tree came out from the backyard. He hasn’t been out recently, and he spends more time with Shao Rong at home. Shao Rong is about to give birth, and the whole family is nervous, especially the willow tree. I can’t wait to be born safely!
Liu Shu saw Liu Changgeng wandering around the door, and hurriedly called: “Dad, what’s the matter?”
Liu Changgeng said, “Senzi left in the morning, why hasn’t he come back yet? Did he…was called to a restaurant again?”
Willow came over and said, “No? Dad, you told him, he probably won’t, Moriko is still obedient…”
“But this kid will definitely come back before it gets dark! Aren’t you afraid of the dark? Why haven’t you come back today?” Liu Changgeng looked at the sky: “It’s already dark. “
Willow was about to say that winter is short, and it gets dark early. It’s not even two quarters of time, but seeing the anxious face on Dad’s face, he said: “Dad, don’t you either? Hurry, I’ll go look for it!”
Liu Changgeng nodded: “Okay, look for it!”
The willow tree came out of the house and went straight to the fabric shop. The merged handmade shop was managed by Liu Tao, the silk shop was always managed by Liu Lin, and the fabric shop opened by Liu Shu was originally managed by himself. The more, so it is handed over to Liu Sen.
When I came to this shop, I saw the bright lights in the shop from afar. Willow was relieved first, and ran two steps to the front. Shocked!
It’s not a small shop, but it’s packed with people!
Willow began to think that it was someone who was here to pick quarrels and cause trouble. Some customers were not satisfied with the purchases and wanted to return them when they came back.
Willow really thought it was such a person at first, mainly because after the shop opened, I have never seen so many people! After he was busy squeezing in, he heard someone shouting, “Slow down, slow down! It’s all there!”
“Don’t squeeze, the cabinet will collapse! If you have it all, don’t squeeze! Get the money ready! Pay with one hand and deliver with one hand, don’t stretch out your hand and grab it!” It was Liu Sen’s voice.
Willow squeezed in with great effort, and saw countless pieces of cloth cluttered on the counter. Take a ruler, cut it constantly, wrap it up, hand it to the person in front and collect the money.
How did this man get in?”
Liu Sen turned his head and glanced at him in his busy schedule, and when he saw him, he called, “Brother! You’re here, great! Hurry up and help.”
The willow hurried over, found a ruler in his hand, and asked the person in front: “What do you want?”
The man stretched out his hand and held a long piece of white paper in his hand: “Three-foot bird holding auspicious flower brocade! This is written on it!”
The willow tree was stunned for a moment, then took a look and saw that it was really written on it was ‘Ten characters at a discount for the bird’s name Ruihua Brocade’, the handwriting looked like Liu Sen’s, he turned his head and called: “Senzi What is this?” Holding the note in his hand.
Liu Sen glanced at it and exclaimed: “That’s what I did, brother, you can give him a discount according to the above, remember, no matter what kind of cloth it is, at least three feet will have a discount. !”
The willow tree has been here for so many years, and he has done a lot of activities. Although he still doesn’t understand what Liusen’s activity is, he still cut a three-foot bird titled Ruihua Brocade for the man. , and then received thirty-five cents. Originally, it was fifteen cents per foot, three feet was forty-five cents, and the discount was ten cents, which was thirty-five cents.
Interest, will such a discount be a loss?
However, there are too many people at the moment, and he has no time to ask, so he can only rush to work.
I forgot how long I was busy, and when people turned a little less and looked up, more than half an hour had passed! At this moment, there were finally fewer people in the shop, and then a few people stepped up to send all the remaining customers away, and they didn’t care about calculating the money. Liu Shu directly picked up the silver box and the ledger, and told the man and He Zhongshuang to go back, on the way. Be careful, he led Liu Sen to close the door and go home.
Walking on the willow tree, I hurriedly asked Moriko what activity he was doing? Liu Sen said embarrassingly: “I also thought about it casually. Our shop also has some low-level silks, and those silks can’t be sold, so I just thought how can I drive them…”
“How did you drive it?” Willow asked.
Liu Sen was really excited when he talked about this: “Brother, look, what’s the best thing our shop sells? It’s Jiading twill, Songjiang Feihua cloth, Songjiang white cotton cloth! Low! The best selling silk is probably the bright red Lianzhu paired with the peacock brocade. Why? Because the country people buy less fabrics, of course it is impossible to buy other colors of brocade, and it will definitely be bright red when you buy it. I just thought For an event, buy these Jiading twill fabrics, Songjiang Feihua fabrics, Songjiang white cotton fabrics, and red peacock pattern brocade. As long as they have more than ten feet, they will be sent a white note that reads: Low-grade silk that cannot be sold, but at a high discount…”
Willow thought for a while and nodded: “The discount is high, if we buy it separately, we will suffer a loss. For the individual guest, he really took advantage of it, so Most of them have used this item, but if we calculate it comprehensively, including the previous Jiading twill, Songjiang Feihua, Songjiang white cotton, etc., we are still profitable, with small profits but quick turnover.”
Liu Sen hurriedly nodded and smiled: “Yes! That’s it.” He smiled and scratched his head: “I didn’t think it would be interesting to do business.”
Willow smiled, and naturally reached out and rubbed his head: “Senzi, you are actually very smart, you just didn’t want to use your brains before, if you really want to be in business If you think about it a little more, you will have a good idea.”
Liu Sen smiled and said, “The big brother and the second brother are capable, and the elder sister… By the way, the elder sister and brother-in-law went to Hanzhong Mansion. When do you mean to come back?”
“I’ll be back in three or two days.” Willow smiled.
Liu Sen nodded.
The brothers walked back, and they ran into Liu Lin again after walking a short distance. They also came to look for Liu Sen. Liu Changgeng looked at Liu Shu, but he didn’t come back. Even more anxious, just as Liu Lin went back from the shop, he didn’t even call into the house and called out to look for it.
Liu Lin saw that they were the same, and asked Liu Sen strangely why it was so late today? Isn’t Liu Sen the first to go home tomorrow? Liu Shu said that Liu Lin was also quite surprised and praised Liu Sen.
Back home, Liu Changgeng was relieved when he found out. When Liu Sen was eating, he smiled and assured Liu Changgeng: “Dad, don’t worry! Whoever looks for me now, I will not Go to a restaurant or something.”
Liu Changgeng said: “You just know! How old are you? What are those seventeen or eighteen-year-old young people taking you to eat out? Just think about it and understand. .”
Liu Sen nodded: “Understood, I just want to get along with me and get some light.”
“You know it, you know it!”
He said: “Oh, Mori already knows, don’t say these things over and over again.”
Liu Changgeng nodded and said nothing. On the contrary, Liu Shu added another sentence: “Now that you feel that doing business is a bit interesting, you should put more effort into it, not to mention how prosperous the business is that requires you to rectify the shop, but it should be done gradually, and it will become stronger day by day.”
Liu Sen smiled and nodded: “I see.”
When Liu Changgeng heard this, he put down his chopsticks and rushed out. Liu Sen stood up and called, “Dad! I’ll go tell him!”
Liu Lin hurriedly stretched out his hand and grabbed Liu Changgeng: “Dad, tell Mori to talk.”
Liu Changgeng stopped, Liu Sen had already left the house, and came to the gate of the mansion, two young men in long gowns stood at the gate, they were scholars from Fengxian County, who went to the examination with Moriko last year Yes, but the two of them fell off the list. After knowing that Moriko, who was only twelve years old, had passed the exam, he shouted that Moriko was a ‘prodigy’! Must befriend him.
The two invited Moriko to a restaurant for dinner, and they wanted to give Moriko some repairs, asked Moriko to help them with their homework, and then wanted to pull Moriko into one of their clubs. , Said to be a literary society where poetry is usually written.
Liu Changgeng was extremely tired of these two people.
Moriko was still young, and was even less interested in the romance, but at the very beginning, these two people did go to a restaurant for a meal. Liu Changgeng found out about this, and gave Mori a good scolding!
Senzi went to the door, the two smiled and stretched out their hands to pull him: “Liu Sen brother, let’s go! I will take you to a good place tonight on Xiongtai! I promise you to go there once, and every day from now on. I want to go!”
Liu Sen stood at the door, folded his fists and gave the two a long bow. The two of them were so panicked that they both turned sideways and shouted, “I can’t bear it, I can’t bear it!”
I hurriedly gave Moriko a deeper bow.
Senzi asked: “Two brothers, what’s the matter with you? I’ve been asked to go to a restaurant all day long, and I’m also asked to go to the Wenhui, what else is a good place… I wondered. After a while, I think that the two of you want something? If you don’t want anything, why are you befriending me like this? I’m just a twelve-year-old child. In your eyes, I should be a child. Why are you being so polite to me? Really? Please tell me anything, and I will definitely help you with what I can do… But I can’t help you much if you think about it, I’m still a child!”
