Chapter 864： Generous

Chapter 864: Generous

Mrs. Qi picked up the fabric, touched it, and expressed her approval, "It looks impervious to strong light, and the quality is good. I never thought there was such a material in the county. I think it's good for lining the windows. How many colors are there?" ?”

“Twelve kinds.” Shopkeeper Guo replied.

"One of the same things." Qi said.

"Okay." Shopkeeper Guo nodded excitedly, and then said, "This is..."

"Mom, I have to buy some other things later. It's really slow for you to pick and choose like this." Shao Anping urged from the side, "Don't waste too much time then."

Mrs. Qi looked at the clock, then at the large cloth selling area in Linglong Pavilion, and nodded, "It's indeed a bit slow, so be it."

"this…"

“This is Songyun brocade, and the most outstanding thing is the woven pattern on it…”

Shopkeeper Guo hurriedly introduced, but before he could finish speaking, Qi said, "This, that, this, and that..."

Mr. Qi pointed to a dozen pieces of cloth one after another, and then said, "One piece of the same color, all of the same color."

This appearance of buying something made Shopkeeper Guo’s jaw almost drop in shock.

Even the richest families in the county did not buy cloth like this. The person in front of me must be too wealthy to buy things.

But regardless of whether she was wealthy or not, since she had to buy so much fabric and such a large amount of business, there was absolutely no reason not to do it.

“Yes, I’ll arrange for the guys to pack it right away.” Shopkeeper Guo nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

Mrs. Qi looked at the guys starting to pick up the cloth and nodded slightly, "In this case, it should be almost done. Can the shopkeeper calculate how much it costs in total?"

As Mrs. Qi spoke, she took a few banknotes from her purse and handed them over.

Shopkeeper Guo took the banknotes and looked at them. Each one was worth one thousand taels.

"Madam, just give me two pieces. There are one hundred and sixty pieces of cloth in total. Each piece of cloth is about twelve taels, for a total of one thousand nine hundred and twenty taels. I will give you the fraction of the twenty taels for wiping, for a total of one thousand nine hundred taels." Two, I still need a hundred taels from you.”

Shopkeeper Guo returned the extra silver notes to Mr. Qi, and called the boy to get another one hundred taels of silver notes.

"Shopkeeper, we are buying these cloths for the girl's family to propose marriage. When wrapping them, help me wrap them in red cloth and tie them with red silk. It will look more festive. Besides, there were not many carriages accompanying us when we came. "Can you send these pieces of cloth with me later?"

Qi Shi said, "Although it's a long way from here, it's not too far. It still belongs to this county."

"No problem, madam, don't worry, I will accompany you to deliver the goods when the time comes, and the things will be packed beautifully." Shopkeeper Guo agreed, "Since madam is here to propose things, I think she brought them We don’t have enough manpower, so I’ll bring a few more guys and two more cars later, which will look better, and I’ll have someone to help with the lifting.”

For such a large amount of business, the other party didn't even mention the price. Shopkeeper Guo is a good businessman and knows when to do what he likes.

"The shopkeeper is interested." Mrs. Qi saw that shopkeeper Guo was very active in doing business and had a good impression of him. She just said, "Let's do it. We want to buy some things later, so we might as well trouble the shopkeeper to send a few more cars to follow. Let’s install some extra stuff so that the hardworking guys can show off.”

“It’s not in vain for the shopkeeper and the waiters to come here. Don’t look for the remaining one hundred taels. Let’s just treat it as tea money for the guys.”

When I opened my mouth, I received one hundred taels of tea money. It was really generous!

Shopkeeper Guo lowered his head repeatedly, "Thank you for your money, Madam. Don't worry, Madam, I will make sure the arrangements are made."

Having said that, he arranged for his men to pack up the carriage and bundle the cloth.

The guys at Linglong Pavilion are quick and ready for everything.

Each of the five carriages was clean and tidy. The horses and carriages were all dressed in red silk. The cloths they bought were also neatly placed on the first two carriages, wrapped and tied with red cloth. The red silk flowers look very festive. "Not bad." It was good to be able to do this in a hurry. Mrs. Qi felt that the money she spent was worth it, so she took Shao Anping to her home to buy things.

Shopkeeper Guo accompanied us all the way.

Because the Qi family gave Linglong Pavilion such a big deal, shopkeeper Guo also tried his best to make suggestions for the Qi family along the way, and even went to the door with the Qi family to help negotiate the price.

As for the Qi family, they knew that this was the first time they had come to propose marriage, and they didn't know what to buy, so they walked from shop to shop.

He bought several cartloads of gold and silver jewelry, jewelry, facial makeup, rouge, gouache, tonics and medicinal materials.

Together with Heng Zhixuan, the herbal medicine store also benefited greatly and made a big deal.

Several shopkeepers laughed so hard that their faces turned stiff. They all sent Qi and Shao Anping out in person and said many words of thanks.

The five carriages were finally loaded and headed out of the county town in a mighty manner.

Along the way, it can be said that it attracted the attention of many people.

This is no wonder, the carriage is tied with red silk, and it means there is a happy event, either a dowry, or someone coming to propose marriage.

But no matter which one it is, it is really rare to see something so majestic and full of pretense.

“I don’t know whose daughter this is, she’s about to fall into the nest of fortune.”

“No, this husband’s family must value so many things. If you marry her, your life will be very easy.”

“I really envy the dead…”

There was a lot of discussion along the way, and some of it reached the ears of Qi and Shao Anping.

Mother and son listened and both curled their lips.

Shao Anping was dissatisfied with what those people said about the girl falling into a lucky trap.

It is a blessing to be able to marry someone else's girl. Others should envy him for his good fortune. What is the reason for envying someone else's girl?

As for Qi, looking at the five carts, she was a little worried.

These things are not available here. Time is really short, and there are too few good shops in the county, so things are really lacking.

Shao Anping said earlier that the Baishuiliu family was well-off and had no shortage of money. However, I felt that they might not appreciate the things they were giving now.

Now I just hope that I won’t lose my etiquette and make the girl’s family unhappy.

After all, it was so easy for someone to fall in love with his own son...

Mother and son have different thoughts, but Shopkeeper Guo is in high spirits.

Several shops have made a lot of money today. If the owners know about it, they will be very happy.

Furthermore, this family came to propose marriage, so he could be considered happy if he went along with them.

Shopkeeper Guo thought this way, grinning from the corner of his mouth to the base of his ears.

It’s just that the further the carriage moved forward, the more shopkeeper Guo felt that something was wrong.
