Chapter 205 Earn Money Wherever You Go
Chapter 205 Earn Money Wherever You Go
The carriage traveled for three days and met refugees who had come through great hardships.
??Hearing that they were going to Taoyuan City, Pan Yingying specially gave them a wooden sign with the word "Taoyuan" engraved on it, and also gave them some dry food, and told them to look for Xiao Shan or Jiang Qinghe after arriving in Taoyuan City.
??The refugees continued on their way with gratitude.
??Pan Yingying and her group also entered Xuanzhou.
??Xuanzhou is not prosperous, but it is not that depressed either. Generally speaking, it is still okay.
??Yu Chaosheng found a suitable place to set up camp and everyone stopped to rest.
??Although everyone brought enough money with them, they had to travel to so many places, and Pan Yingying became eager to make money.
??Even if it's not easy to make a lot of money along the way, it's always okay to make a little money, right?
??She had a simple dinner and gathered everyone around the fire.
"I think we are taking a relatively safe route this time. It would be a shame if we don't make some money." Pan Yingying looked sad.
??Especially Long Si and Long Shi, my husband and I occasionally have some extra money, so we have enough for them.
Pan Yingying didn’t participate in the bead stringing. I just love doing that kind of delicate work, so I simply took out a pen and paper to write my new book.
??Eight girls all refused, so there was no reason for the others to refuse.
Zhang Fuzi picked up an ice-blue bead and said, "The colored glaze beads are a specialty of our Taoyuan City. They string them into bracelets or necklaces according to their own aesthetic taste. Since we opened up the sales channel when we went to the capital, a bracelet is priced at ten taels of silver! The necklace is priced at seventy taels of silver!"
Cheng Hai kept an eye on the time and called a halt at 4:30, asking everyone in the family to rest. Even if they needed to earn some money, it would not affect their journey.
??The corner of my mouth twitched. Glass beads like that were the most valuable. You could buy eighty or seventy of them for seven copper coins. I felt guilty about multiplying them by such a small amount.
??The servants were at a loss. We have all done that kind of work before, and we were too doubtful about our own aesthetic taste. We all turned our heads to look at the stone.
??Long Qi took out a booklet from his bag and turned to the page about Xuanzhou.
??Long Qiruo was puzzled. Although what the girl said was strange, he could at least understand what she meant.
??Long Qi had seen a lot of bad things outside the palace, and so had Cheng Hai in the past, but none of you had ever seen such clear and beautiful glass beads, so you didn’t think there was anything wrong with pricing a bracelet at ten taels, and even thought it was too cheap.
??You smiled slightly and announced quietly, "From today on, we'll string beads when we have time."
Just two days passed and the large wooden boxes filled half the size of a carriage.
"Take a look, take a look! This blind glass box from the northwest only costs ten taels of silver. If he buys it, he will suffer a loss, and if he buys it, he will be pawned! If he buys it, he will make a profit!"
??Mother loves gold so much. If you bring back a bar of gold, mother will be very unhappy.
??Yu Chaosheng nodded and said, "You were thinking about that problem while eating just now. At first you bought a small bag of colorful glass beads and crystal threads outside the system mall."
??After we got off the game, we were divided into two bags of beads, and suddenly we knew how to start.
??Yu Qiuer thought about it and felt that selling things and eating delicious food were not in conflict, so she was the first to raise her hand.
??Pan Yingying: ...
??I heard that it is easy to live in a small capital city. If the prices are low, I can go to consult those imperial doctors with nothing. I still have to prepare some money.
Shitou's scalp tingled under the gazes of his brothers. "Why are they all looking at you? Did you hear what Master Cheng said? Get back to work!"
After placing the wooden board with the words "Glass Blind Box" on it, Lumei took out the gong and struck it with a "dong" sound.
Yu Chaosheng was stringing the beads quickly and methodically, while Batian was lying beside you, watching your movements with his round eyes and his tiger head twisting back and forth.
"Aunt, are we still selling goods?"
When they arrived at the first county town of Xuanzhou and checked into an inn, Yu Chaosheng asked Shitou to take people to find out where the less wealthy families lived outside the city. Then he personally took the maids and drove the carriage carrying the large wooden box outside.
??That’s what she thought anyway.
?? Zhang Fuzi shook his head and raised his hand to stop you from saying anything more, "Well, you can say that, but our main purpose is to expand sales, so just think of it as a benefit for your family."
Upon seeing this, Yu Chaosheng bought two large flat wooden boxes from the system mall and asked the people on night watch to put the bracelets and necklaces in the boxes when they needed help.
The servants suddenly realized something and simply came over to the maids with the beads in their hands, calling them "sister" one by one and asking them to take care of us.
"Girl, if such a clear glass bead is priced at 50 taels, I guess no one will rush to buy it..." Long Qi really felt that the price was too high.
The girl said that taking us all the way to the capital would be just the right thing to solve our urgent problem.
??The eight girls quickly took over a bag, put some beads in it, took out eight rolls of crystal thread, and started discussing how to string them.
There are few older people in the team, and they have all practiced martial arts, so they are nimble and deft. When they come up a few years old, they can make a lot of bracelets if they go wrong.
"There is no Taoyuanzhai in every county of Xuanzhou. If we can sell the same goods as those outside the shop, it will not have any impact, right?"
You smiled wickedly and rubbed its head, "Wait, mom will make a chain for him."
Pan Yingying gave her a look that said, "Yes, don't you want to go home with a lot of money in the future?"
??You patted Pan Yingying's arm, and Pan Yingying stood up and went outside the carriage to pick up two small cloth bags.
??Honglian and Lumei, along with the maids, also joined in with great interest.
??When the girls heard this, they felt that it was indeed true.
Lumei's voice was clear and loud. It was early afternoon and the masters and ladies were out for social events. When you shouted like that, the masters and ladies sent people out to see what was going on.
Batian let out an "ow", which was considered a refusal.
Yu Chaosheng opened it, and the colorful beads attracted everyone's attention as soon as they came out.
??Yu Chuner nodded and said, You want to too.
Cheng Hai clapped his hands and went to get a few new cloth bags from under the carriage. "It's broken. Let's finish our work. We'll reach the county town in two days. The sooner we break it, the sooner we can earn money!"
??Orange turns his head to glance at Green, and looks at what color you are wearing, then follows the same color.
Yu Qiuer said without hesitation, "I want to!"
Compared to stringing beads, packing is obviously more complicated. After a while, Shitou and a few servants packed everything and moved them under the car.
??Later, I saw a bicycle outside a grocery store, but it was too expensive, costing seven hundred taels of silver. I was willing to spend that money even if my teeth were broken. When I returned from the capital that time, I was determined to buy another one.
??Wang Xueer touched her chest and said, "Your mother is not outside. You have hung up the golden locket."
Qing rolled his eyes. During the exam, each one of them was more ruthless than the other. Now that she has no one to ask for help from, she keeps calling me "bad sister". She is not a woman, bah!
