The game starts with escaping from the famine and flipping the table
Chapter 164: Bought out all the pastry shops
Su Xiaoya and Liu Mingquan were also shopping.
Su Qingshi, Su Mingxian and Su Mingyi were all at Yuelai Inn, guarding the cattle and horses and paying their respects.
Seeing the cloth shop, Liu Mingquan took Su Xiaoya straight in.
This was Su Xiaoya’s first time visiting an ancient clothing store, and her eyes were full of surprise.
As you step into the door of the cloth shop, you will see a long corner counter in the shape of a figure seven.
On the counter on the left side of the door, there is an old abacus. The black lacquer on it is shining when it is moved, somewhat like the patina on the sandalwood bracelets that modern collectors have been polishing for a long time.
Next to the abacus was a thick account book, which was half open.
Sitting behind the counter was a middle-aged female shopkeeper in her forties, moving the abacus beads with her fingers flying, making a crackling sound.
On the long counter facing the door, neatly arranged rolls of various cloths were lined up, including various silks, soft fine cotton, and coarse cotton.
Some are thick, some are thin, and some are obviously sold faster, while others are not so popular. Of course, it is also possible that the whole piece of cloth is sold too well and new ones are added.
Behind the counter and on the walls to the left and right, except for the door leading to the backyard, are hung with all kinds of ready-made clothes.
To Su Xiaoya's surprise, the shop mainly sold fine cotton and coarse cloth clothes.
The left wall was hung entirely with ready-made muslin garments, both for children and adults.
On the right wall are hung all ready-made adult clothing made of coarse cotton, for both men and women.
Hanging on the opposite wall were some ordinary silk gowns, the style of which was similar to the kind worn by landlords in movies and TV dramas.
Su Xiaoya understood. This was a place specifically for the poor people. No wonder it was called a cloth shop.
I think the places that specialize in selling high-end clothing are silk shops or Nishang Pavilion.
Su Xiaoya said that she had learned a lot.
Liu Mingquan came directly to make a large purchase.
Bought fifty rolls of muslin.
I also bought 500 kilograms of cotton and bought all the village goods directly from the cloth shop.
The main character is a wealthy person.
After paying the deposit, Liu Mingquan asked the shop owner to deliver it to Yuelai Inn at 5 p.m.
The owner of the cloth shop was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
I had heard a long time ago that a wealthy caravan had come to Yuelai Inn, but I didn't expect to see them in person now.
Who knows, maybe if I go there to deliver some cloth, I can attract some more business.
As he thought about it, the owner of the cloth shop became even happier.
Originally, the sales this month were not very good, and the owner of the cloth shop was worried that he would be at the bottom again this month.
I've been at the bottom of the list for three consecutive months. Even if the head of the family doesn't say anything, I can't save my face.
Unexpectedly, my luck will turn around today!
I met the God of Wealth.
You should know that cotton and red cloth cost 17 wen per foot, and summer cloth cost 12 wen per foot.
A bolt of cloth is a roll of cloth, about 50 meters of thick fabric.
One meter is equal to 3 feet.
One piece of cloth is 150 feet.
Su Xiaoya saw that Liu Mingquan had chosen the softest red cloth, which cost 17 wen per foot.
One piece of cloth was 2550 wen, and 50 pieces of cloth was also wen, which was equivalent to 127 taels and 5 qian of silver.
And cotton.
Cotton is 52 wen per jin, which is much cheaper than the 87 wen per jin in Qingyun City.
No wonder Liu Mingquan bought 500 jin in one go, spending 26 wen, which is 43 taels of silver. If he bought it in Qingshan City, he would have to spend 5 taels and 17 cents, which is 5 taels and cents cheaper.
Su Xiaoya calculated that Liu Mingquan had spent 153 taels and 5 cents in one go.
Looking at Liu Mingquan who didn't even blink, Su Xiaoya's heart was filled with emotion.
Money is the courage of heroes.
This is absolutely true.
Not only did Liu Mingquan not feel anything, but Su Xiaoya also only had a fleeting thought.
After all, they now own a mountain of silver.
This little bit of money is really nothing.
The owner of the cloth shop politely escorted Su Xiaoya and Liu Mingquan out of the shop, then turned around and instructed his clerk to quickly write back to the family and ask them to transfer the goods as soon as possible.
Then, the owner of the cloth shop personally selected the fine cotton cloth that Liu Mingquan had specifically requested.
All of them are the softest and cleanest batch.
Afterwards, Liu Mingquan took Su Xiaoya to visit the silk shop again. This time, Liu Mingquan was not such a nouveau riche. He just picked out two sets of dresses with the best materials and workmanship for Su Xiaoya.
Hearing the owner of the silk shop praising Liu Mingquan for his good taste, he directly bought the store's treasure.
However, these two dresses are indeed very beautiful, and they also reveal a sense of low-key luxury.
One of the sets is a light pink dress that looks playful and cute.
There is another set, which is a lake blue dress that looks gentle and graceful.
Su Xiaoya herself was also quite satisfied.
However, when the bill came, the money was also particularly "satisfactory". It was just two sets of clothes, but it cost 358 taels.
The corner of Su Xiaoya's mouth twitched.
The two sets of clothes I bought are twice as much as what I spent at the cloth shop.
However, Su Xiaoya did not pretend to want to return the goods or anything like that.
After all, there is really too much money to spend.
I remember that there was a popular saying on Blue Star: "It's sad to have no money to spend. But the saddest thing is that people die without spending all their money!"
Unexpectedly, I also experienced the invisible rich man in a different time and space.
There were not many things this time, so Liu Mingquan asked the shopkeeper to pack them and carried them himself.
Next, is the dim sum shop.
Looking at the beautifully shaped pastries, Su Xiaoya's saliva was about to flow.
Sugar-steamed pastry, osmanthus sugar, osmanthus cake, Ruyi cake, radish cake, hundred-flower cake, red bean cake, crabapple cake, walnut cake, wick cake, cloud cake...
Candied pineapple, candied red fruit, candied grapes, candied water chestnuts, candied oranges, candied crabapples, candied bananas, candied plums, candied auspicious fruits...
Liu Mingquan simply waved his hand and bought them all.
Then, for the first time, the pastry shop closed early.
There was no other way. Not only were all the cakes on the counter sold out, but Liu Mingquan also specifically asked the shop owner if there were any varieties that were not on the counter.
Then, we ordered fragrant cakes, frozen cakes, fried cakes, rice cakes, pulled cakes, baked cakes, rice cakes, thousand-layer cakes, nine-layer cakes, large square cakes, water chestnut cakes, crystal cakes, steamed chestnut powder cakes, plum blossom cakes, rose cakes...
Of course, it will be delivered to Yuelai Inn at the hour of You.
There's nothing I can do about it, having a space ring is just so capricious.
No matter how it is when you put it into the space, no matter how long it has been since you take it out, it will still remain in the same state as when you put it in.
Therefore, as long as Su Xiaoya liked it, Liu Mingquan would buy it all without hesitation.
