Chapter 145 Good things can't be cheap anymore
Qiao Mai suddenly thought of something, and said to her, "Wait a minute, I'll bring you some good things, you must like them."
Mayor Qian saw that the two of them had something to do, so he went directly to the old man.
It's been a long time since I ate her food, it's weird.
Qiao Mai returned to her room, closed the door and entered the space.
On the computer shopping platform, I bought ten different sets of horse-face skirts in one go, all of which are thin and suitable for wearing now.
Every piece was packed in a beautiful box, and she carried a bunch of cardboard boxes back to the front hall.
Shopkeeper Lu quickly took it over, "What is this?"
"Horse face skirt, we don't have it here."
Shopkeeper Lu opened the box, Qiao Mai took out one, and showed her a try on the spot. Seeing such an exquisite dress, shopkeeper Lu was very happy.
Her hand caressed the skirt, "This workmanship, this needle corner, this embroidery work, my God, how much silver do you want me to sell?"
It happened that Miss Wang came from the old lady's courtyard and asked Qiao Mai to eat. She was also very surprised when she saw the horse-faced skirt.
"Sister, where did you get it?"
"Don't worry about where you got it, is this thing good?"
"Great, not to mention the embroiderer, the stitches, the fabric is hard to find."
Shopkeeper Lu asked Ms. Wang, "Sister Ru, how much do you think you can sell?"
"One piece will not be sold if it is less than two thousand taels."
"It won't be too expensive, right?"
"Rare things are more valuable. Who in this world can make such a skirt? Embroider such a pattern? Find such a fabric?"
"Then I'll sell it for three thousand taels and see if anyone buys it."
"That's right, good things can't be cheap."
"Then I'll take it away first, and I'll give you money when I sell it later."
"Shall we go after dinner?"
"No, I had a bowl of dumplings at your house just now, I'm full, I'm leaving."
The shopkeeper Lu has left, and the mayor Qian is drinking with the old man right now.
When Qiao Mai passed by, the two of them blushed after drinking.
"San Niang is gone?"
"Yeah, it's getting dark, why do you stay here by yourself and don't go with her?"
"I'm always tired of her annoying me. She has enough for everything, especially annoying men who have been pestering her, so I will help her when she finds me for so many years. I rarely take the initiative because I am afraid that she will be annoying." I."
"How hypocritical!"
"Haha, but that's how I like her, there's nothing I can do about it."
Qiao Mai sat down, and Yuan Jiaqi hurriedly brought the dumplings in front of her.
"Eat it, it's still warm."
Miss Wang stared at her with bright eyes, watching Qiao Mai eating dumplings, fearing that she would be thirsty, so Miss Wang hurriedly poured her a glass of juice.
"Come on, sister, drink some of this."
Seeing her like this, Qiao Mai knew that she had something to ask of him.
"Just talk about it if you have something to do."
"Such a skirt, how many for me? Ah, no, how many for me?"
Qiao Mai gave her a white look, "Sell?"
"Could it be a gift?"
The two looked at each other several times, then laughed.
"Let's go for a while. After dinner, I'll go back and see if there are any more. What color do you like?"
"I like young ones, but if I get married, I have to wear more prudent ones."
"How about purple?"
"Just look at the color that suits me."
Mayor Qian took a sip of the wine, "Master, this wine is really strong, where did you buy it? I also make two jars?"
"Two jars? You think so beautifully. This wine was made by Mrs. Qiao for the old man. It's not sold outside. It's really good for me to drink. She made ten jars for the old man at once. After sealing it and putting it away, I slowly drink."
"Is it possible to share my two altars?"
"No, I don't have enough to drink myself."
Mayor Qian turned his head pitifully, "Miss Qiao, I'll buy you two jugs of wine."
"One thousand taels is an altar, and two altars are two thousand taels."
"Your wine is gold, so expensive?"
"Don't buy it if it's too expensive!"
One asked her for a dress, and the other asked her for wine. The dress is easy to say, the embroiderers are machine embroidered, the cost is not high, and a dress is not expensive, but the wine is really not cheap, it is a good wine that is famous all over the world She used fifteen bottles of wine to fill a jug of wine. The price of a bottle of wine was equivalent to one hundred taels of silver, and fifteen bottles were worth one thousand five hundred taels. She even paid him a thousand taels Woolen cloth.
"It's not too expensive, it's not too expensive, I'll buy it, I'll buy it, can't I buy it?"
"My things are hard to find in the world, and they are too expensive. I don't even want to sell them to you. They are not even enough for the cost price."
Mayor Qian immediately took out two silver bills from his pocket, "Here, here, bring me here after you finish eating, and take them with me when I leave."
Qiao Mai accepted the cashier's ticket unceremoniously, ate several dumplings in one go, and left after finishing the bowl of juice.
Yuan Jiaqi got up quickly, "I'm with you, you can't move the two jars by yourself."
It was rare for the couple to walk alone like this, and the Yuan family begged for several times, wanting to chat with Qiao Mai.
But Qiao Mai wanted to get the things quickly, so he left very fast.
Arriving at the main courtyard in the backyard, the Yuan family stopped in the courtyard.
"I'm waiting for you here?"
Qiao Mai nodded at him and entered the room, gently inserted the door into the space, and bought a hundred bottles of Maotai wine on the platform.
Find out two clean jars, open the caps and pour the wine into them.
One jar filled fifteen bottles, and I bought two horse-face skirts and two long-sleeved white women's tops.
Only then did the space come out, and the jar was moved outside the door. Yuan Jiaqi stepped forward and carried a jar in his arms.
"lady"
He yelled these two words with a low voice, the kind that had no confidence, and used to call Mrs. Qiao.
Qiao Mai didn't pay attention, and picked up another jug of wine, with a few cardboard boxes under his arm.
"Well, let's go"
Yuan Jiaqi felt a little elated, he called her his wife, but she didn't refute, that's great, let's call her like that from now on.
Don't be impatient, take your time, one day, she will truly accept herself.
Yuan Jiaqi hid his small thoughts, and the two returned to the old lady's courtyard. Mayor Qian immediately got up when he saw the wine jar.
He beckoned to the two guards, "Go and take it quickly."
After getting a good wine, he stopped drinking, "Old man, I'm leaving, and I will drink with you some other day?"
"go Go!"
The old gentleman saw that he looked like he had never seen the world, and he guarded his wine tightly, for fear that the guard would fall.
As soon as Mayor Qian left, he burst out laughing.
He didn't know until now that this jar of good wine actually costs more than a thousand taels, and this girl is really willing to give him up.
"Girl, thank you!"
"You are welcome, you are at my house, you are at your own house. If there is anything good in my house, I will stick to you first. You are the hero of my house."
"Look, it can talk!"
Qiao Mai smiled and handed several boxes to Ms. Wang, "Take it and wear it. It's different from those ten pieces, in terms of material, flower shape, and color."
"Hee hee, thank you sister!"
She took it and opened it, almost blinding her eyes.
"Oh, I can't bear to wear such a beautiful dress now, so I can wear it when I return to Beijing?"
"This is a summer dress. When I go to the capital to attend your wedding, I will bring you two more winter dresses."
"Sister, you are so kind, come on, go back to the room with me and change into some clothes?"
The two entered the room holding hands, Qiao Mai personally taught how to wear this skirt and how to match this skirt with a top.
Then he helped her change, re-styled her hair, and put on her head like a magic trick, the most popular hair accessories and earrings on the planet.
After came out, neither the old gentleman nor the old lady dared to recognize her.
"This dress is really beautiful. How should I put it, this dress makes you look noble and elegant, and your temperament has been greatly improved. Not bad, not bad, really great!"
Miss Wang hugged Qiao Mai happily, "Sister, thank you, the dress is so beautiful, I like it so much."
Qiao Mai pouted, "When I go to the capital, just remember to treat me well."
"necessary!"
