Chapter 69 - Buy materials for the hairpin
In the morning, Yun Qin dragged her weak body and stood up. When she walked out to take a look, the piercing sunlight entered her eyes. She subconsciously covered her eyes and called out, "Yu Er? Yu Er? "
No one replied. After a while, a maid came in with some water to wash up. She waved her body towards Yun Qin and said, "Princess, Big Sister Yu Er and Lady Qing Yao have gone out."
Yun Qin rubbed her head. She had slept for a long time, and her head was a little dizzy. Why didn't they call me? "
"It's almost noon by the time we return to Princess. His Royal Highness had instructed me not to disturb your rest and to leave Big Sister Yu Er and the others to their own devices. " Liu Dong replied.
Yun Qin grinded her teeth, turned her neck in pain, and heard a few "kacha" sounds. She took the handkerchief that Liu Dong handed to him and wiped her face while listening to Liu Dong say, "This servant has already asked the kitchen to prepare a meal. I will go ask them to send it over now."
When she finished her breakfast, it was already noon.
She sat on the carriage and went to Silk Cloth Pavilion, and saw that a stage had been built outside the pavilion, only then did she remember that today was the day of dancers's performance. In order to maintain its novelty, Yun Qin held an event every seven days to let the dancers dance on the stage.
Just as she got off the carriage, Qing Yao and Yu Er walked over. Qing Yao stared at her with lustful eyes, and Yun Qin gave her a brainwave, saying: "You two are too disloyal."
"Aiyo, you can't blame us for that, can you, Yu Er." Qing Yao winked at Yu Er.
Yu Er nodded her head, "Yes, Your Highness ordered me to not disturb your rest."
Yun Qin snorted. Xiao Hei wagged her tail and ran over to her side passionately and began rubbing his hands around her feet. Yun Qin happily picked up Xiao Hei and touched its head: "Xiao Hei is still obedient, it won't hurt if there's no comparison."
Qing Yao shamelessly stuck it out, "Aiyo, Little Qin Qin Qin, don't be angry. By the way, what did you think of the price reduction? "Can you do it?"
This move to change the topic really worked. Yun Qin nodded: "We should still try our best not to lose anything."
Although she had's support, she still felt that she couldn't be a prodigal woman.
"I've already thought of how to do it. All of our clothes will be reduced by the same amount. We will only earn 10% of the profit, and then the female attire will be given to the head and the male clothing will be given to the belt. What do you think?" Yun Qin asked for his opinion.
"But I ask for money, for elderflower herb to make a belt, he still needs money." Qing Yao counted with his fingers.
Yun Qin smirked and her gaze landed on the guards who were drinking tea and resting within the Silk Cloth Pavilion.
She had always been a high-profile person. She would do whatever she wanted and leave Ye Chenzi alone to take charge. The three of them sat in the carriage and went out to buy the materials they needed.
At a jewelry stall on Hundred Phoenix Street, he saw an old lady wearing a blue and white cloth with a fan in her hand driving a mosquito. Yun Qin called for her to stop, and the carriage slowly stopped in front of the jewelry store.
Seeing that the buyer had arrived, the aunt hurriedly stood up and greeted him with a smile. However, seeing that the customer was dressed extravagantly and did not seem to be interested in her stall, she hesitated before smiling and asking, "Ladies, would you like to buy a hairpin?"
"Auntie, I want to ask you for the materials to make the hairpin." Yun Qin immediately went to the main topic.
The aunt was startled. She usually relied on these things to make a living. If she sold these things to them, wouldn't it ruin her own road to wealth?
"Miss, this business is not easy to handle, all of you …" The aunt had a bitter look on her face.
"Aunt, you misunderstand. We don't want to steal your business, we just want to negotiate a business deal with you. If you sell us the materials to make the hairpin, we'll take all the hairpins you make in the future. What do you think? " Yun Qin said.
When the aunt heard that the fan in her hand was unsteady, she was surprised. She always felt that such a good thing wouldn't happen to her.
"Miss, is that true?"
"Naturally, our shop will head straight south from here. After passing through a street, it will be settled. Our shop's name is Silk Cloth Pavilion." Yun Qin told her the name of the shop. Knowing that the old lady was afraid of being tricked, she smiled and promised, "If Aunt agrees to supply us with the goods, Silk Cloth Pavilion can pay you a deposit first."
The aunt hesitated. To her, this was indeed a good opportunity to make money. The old man's illness was getting worse and worse. If she could make money earlier, she would have helped him buy medicine …
She then raised her eyes to look at the three girls. They all had kind expressions and did not seem like they would lie to her. Gritting her teeth, she nodded and said, "I can provide you with materials."
Seeing that she had let go, Yun Qin smiled as he took down the money pouch and took out three silver ingots, "Aunt, I can pay you right now. Can you take us to get the materials now? "
Seeing the amount of money, her vision blurred and she hurriedly nodded her head, "I have one in my family. If you guys are in a hurry, you can come back with me to get it."
Nearby, a man in embroidered clothes saw this scene, and his eyes revealed a malicious smile …
The three of them helped the aunty clean up her stall and was about to get on the carriage when suddenly, a few strong and robust men came and blocked their path. Yun Qin frowned: "What do you guys want to do?"
"Little beauty, come and play with us." A man laughed sinisterly, he stroked his beard and walked towards Yun Qin.
Qing Yao took out the medicinal powder from her bag and scattered it around like flour. Yun Qin got Yu Er to bring the aunt to hide behind him, the coachman got out of the car and placed a blade in front of Yun Qin to protect him.
"How dare a little hoodlum act so arrogantly in front of your aunts!" Yun Qin scoffed, Qing Yao added, "Ignorant!"
"These two women have quite the temper. Attack!"
A few people started a fight on the street, attracting quite a few passersby to watch.
Who would have thought that all these thugs were trained? Qing Yao and Yun Qin both had it in their hands, and after a few moves, they seemed to be difficult.
A hoodlum grabbed Qing Yao's braid and pulled her to his side. He held her wrist with one hand: "Little girl, obey me."
Just then, a man rushed into the crowd and grabbed the hand of the hoodlum. The hoodlum let out a painful cry and slowly let go of Qing Yao's hand.
When Qing Yao saw He Yi Chen, she rubbed his hands together. With a determined look on his face, she ordered her men to surround these thugs.
He Yi turned and looked at Qing Yao with deep concern: "Miss, are you alright?" When he saw Qing Yao's face clearly, he asked in shock, "It's you?"
Qing Yao nodded her head. Originally, her impression of He Yi Chen was not very good, after all, his shop had bought Yun Qin's clothes, but this time, he did not hate him.
"Thank you."
After a short while, the thugs were beaten until they cried in pain while lying on the ground by the Attendant that He Yi had brought over. He Yi said in a low voice, "Scram!"
