After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land
Chapter 480 Fighting for favor
Ye Qing asked Aunt Zhang to help her keep her eyes open, and as long as the embroidery method was not something they knew how to do, she would let Aunt Zhang buy a piece of embroidery to take back.
When they arrived in Wu'an City, they continued to study and try to innovate some embroidery techniques.
Aunt Ma very much agreed with Ma Rui following Ye Qing. They were both young girls and could talk to each other.
She also noticed that Ye Qing had a very good impression of her daughter and was cultivating her intentionally or unintentionally.
Lin Wenxuan was a little jealous, "Brother Youdao, why do they have so much to say in a day?"
Ma Youdao glanced at his sister who was discussing the newly bought handkerchief with Ye Qing, "It's normal for girls to have endless topics to talk about when they get together."
Ma Youdao has gotten used to it. His sister has been chatting with her little sisters since she was a child and she never stops talking.
Lin Wenxuan secretly made up his mind to ask Ye Qing to go out for breakfast early tomorrow morning without bringing Ma Rui.
Ye Qing was indeed planning to go out for a walk. She not only had an embroidery workshop, but also other businesses. It would be best if she could find another way out for the village.
The next morning, Lin Wenxuan got up early and waited for Ye Qing outside her door.
When Ye Qing heard that they were going out to eat, he turned around and called Ma Rui, and the group of young people went together.
Lin Wenxuan was a little disappointed, but when he thought about going out to eat together, he became happy again.
Everyone else was very happy. The breakfast here was something they had never tried before. The taste of the breakfast provided in the inn was average.
Ye Qing looked at the various breakfasts on the roadside and bought one of each. There were many of them, so they bought a few more and tried a little of each and could finish them all.
Ma Rui looked at the oil on Ye Qing's mouth, took out a new handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Ye Qing.
Lin Wenxuan put down the hand he had just raised, regretting that he was a step slower.
Ma Rui also noticed these past two days that Lin Wenxuan always separated her and Miss Ye intentionally or unintentionally. She thought it was a coincidence the first two times, but after it happened so many times, she became suspicious.
When she was in Sucheng, she secretly liked Lin Wenxuan. After spending so much time with Ye Qing, she couldn't even remember who Lin Wenxuan was.
Now looking at Lin Wenxuan's lowered hand, she secretly gave him a provocative look. She was the most intimate person in Miss Ye's heart.
Of course Lin Wenxuan also saw her provocative look, but he didn't say it out loud, for fear that Ye Qing would say he was narrow-minded.
He remembered that he would flatter her in front of Ma Youdao in the future. It would be better for the little girl to read more books.
Ye Qing didn't pay attention to the lawsuit between them. She was attracted by the wooden combs on the stall next to her.
Ma Rui followed her gaze and was also attracted by the unique shape of the wooden comb.
The two found the stall and picked up the comb to feel it carefully.
These combs should be made of sandalwood, feel very comfortable, and there are patterns carved on each comb.
Ye Qing chose a comb carved with a crane and planned to give it to Li, hoping that she and Old Man Ye would live a long and happy life.
Everyone else in the family chose one. Seeing that his brothers and Lin Wenxuan seemed uninterested, Ye Qing also picked one for Uncle Ye, Uncle Ye San, and the Lin family.
The vendor looked at Ye Qing and saw that he liked every one of them, so he wanted to make this deal.
"Girl, this was made by a famous carpenter in our city. He is best at making wooden combs. Even the nobles in the palace use combs made by him." The vendor said with pride in his tone.
Ye Qing became interested. "Such a great master must be very popular. Does he have time to make these combs and sell them?"
The vendor didn't feel guilty at all and even puffed out his thin chest.
"Of course not. This was made by the master's apprentice. Don't underestimate his apprentice. If I didn't have connections, you wouldn't even be able to see these combs."
After hearing this, Ye Chenjing came over to take a look, "Is a comb so magical? Let me see."
Ye Chenjing reached out and took a comb with orchids carved on it, and touched it with his hand. It was indeed better than the ones he usually used.
"How much is a comb?" Ye Chenjing's mind flashed with Miss Ling's face, and he felt that this comb was very suitable for her.
"Five hundred coins a handful."
Ye Chenjing took a step back in fear, "Why don't you go and rob them? A comb costs five hundred coins."
The vendor cried out like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
"I have been setting up a stall here for so many years, and I have never cheated anyone. No one has ever said that I am not honest. Don't talk nonsense and ruin my reputation."
Ye Chenjing was stunned and his voice became a little quieter.
"They sell for ten cents a bunch outside, and I've been using them for so many years and they haven't broken. What's the difference?"
The vendor saw that his momentum was weakening, and his attitude became stronger.
"How can they be the same? This is good for the body, it can massage the head, it's good for the hair."
Ye Chenyu couldn't help but come over. This comb had a gold rim and cost half a tael of silver.
Ye Chenjing didn't give him the one in his hand, but took another one from the stall and handed it to him.
Ye Chenyu held it and tried it for a long time, and still felt that the feel was better than the one he used, but there was no other difference.
Ye Qing likes this comb very much. The material is indeed expensive, but not outrageously so.
"Can we buy a few more and get a discount?" Ye Chenjing imitated Zhou and offered him a discount.
The vendor glanced at them and said, "The lowest price is 480 coins a piece. I'm giving you a cheaper price because you are educated people."
Ye Chenyu gave Ye Chenjing a thumbs up. Fifth brother was really capable. He saved twenty cents just by asking for it.
Ye Chenjing was about to take out his wallet so that he could pay.
Ye Qing held down his hand that was about to pay and looked at the vendor.
The vendors all had happy expressions on their faces, which must have been very revealing.
"We want them all, 200 wen a bunch." Ye Qing remembered the bargaining method her friend taught her before, which was to bargain for less than half the price.
This was her first time bargaining like this, and she wasn't quite sure.
Ma Rui’s eyes widened. Could it be that she had heard it wrong? Did he say that buying four swords would cost 2,000 coins?
Ye Chenjing was talking to Ye Chenyu just now with his back to Ye Qing.
Now he could only pretend to chat normally with Ye Chenyu. The looks in their eyes were asking how dare Ye Qing bargain like this, whether the vendor was going to beat them, and whether they should run away.
In the few moments when the atmosphere was tense, the vendor quickly reacted.
"Little girl, I think you look like a fairy, how can you bargain so hard? I have a connection with you two, and I want to do this business. Three hundred coins for each piece, I'll give it to you at a loss."
Lin Wenxuan took out his wallet and was about to pay. He got two hundred coins, which was a pleasant surprise.
Ye Qing glared at Lin Wenxuan, and Lin Wenxuan put the purse back.
"We don't have that much money with us. Can you give us two hundred coins? If the price is higher than this, we'll look somewhere else." Ye Qing said as he pretended to leave.
The others thought that Ye Qing really wanted to go to other stalls to take a look, so they cooperated by putting down their combs and going to the stall next to them to take a look.
The vendor panicked, "Ladies and gentlemen, please stay. This is our first business today. I want a good omen and I will give you the money at a loss."
