Qi Dongjia has run an embroidery shop in Lanxia County for more than 10 to 20 years and has a stable customer base.

She reached out and took Su Rongrong's drawing, and after seeing what was drawn on it, she immediately liked it.

"Miss Su's clothes look elegant and decent, and the key is that although they are winter clothes, they don't make people feel bloated.

I want all of these patterns. I'll give you two taels of silver for each one. Is that okay?"

Su Rongrong didn't know how much people's pattern drawings were worth nowadays, but when she heard two taels, she thought it was okay.

After all, according to the previous prices of rice and flour, this drawing can buy several hundred kilograms of grain.

Besides, she didn't have time to bargain or ask around, so she was ready to agree.

Of course, you still have to subconsciously raise the price before agreeing.

"Master Qi, five taels of silver for one, if you think it's possible, I'll sell it all to you.

I can also give you the other three styles of hair flowers."

When Mr. Qi heard that it would cost five taels of silver, he naturally refused.

She would buy the drawings that others brought to sell for one or two taels of silver.

I was able to get two taels today, and that was because the style of this dress is novel.

Now Su Rongrong asked for five taels right away, and she felt that she was being taken advantage of.

But the dress was really beautiful. Even if she took a quick look at it, she could draw it, but she still couldn't remember the details.

If she makes clothes like this, she won't have any trouble selling them.

What's more, after she finishes the work, she can take the drawings to the capital and sell them, and then make some money.

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and said, "Three taels, the most I can give is one piece of silver, I can't afford more.

As for the head flower, it doesn’t matter whether there is a pattern or not.

I have the finished products here. If you take apart a few of them, you will know how to make them. "

Su Rongrong: “…”

One ticket can bring an extra tael, which is a pleasant surprise.

She was just talking casually, but the Qi family gave her an extra pound or two, so there should be room for further increase.

However, as more and more refugees came outside, the situation became more chaotic. She had to buy things and go back quickly and could not delay here.

Therefore, she thought for a moment and said, "I wonder if Qi Dong's family has any leftover cloth from the embroiderers making clothes?

Also, if you can give me some of this wire for making hair flowers, I will sell it for this price."

This time it was Qi Dongjia's turn to be speechless, but she really liked the styles of these clothes.

When she sells it later, she can not only make back the money, but also make a profit at the same time.

Plus, it was early in the morning, and she wanted to have good luck, so she agreed.

“There is iron wire, but not much. I can allow you some.

As for the cloth, you have to wait for me for a moment. I need to send someone back to get it."

All the embroiderers in her shop were kept at home.

Scraps of cloth and other things were also piled up at home, and she had to wait for the shop assistants to come to work before sending them back.

When Su Rongrong heard that she had to wait, she said, "Okay, then please settle the money first. I'm going to go back and buy some things.

As for the cloth and wire, you prepare them first, I'll come get them later!"

Qi Dongjia is a businessman. She can make the silk net in less than three days from Su Rongrong.

By the way, I can also make several novel styles of hair ornaments, and finally come up with clothing patterns, and then I will want to make friends.

After hearing this, he started to use the abacus quickly.

"Five blueprints for fifteen taels, thirteen tulips for sixty-five wen, twenty-four roses for seventy-two wen, and twenty-nine daisies for fifty-eight wen.

All these add up to fifteen taels and one hundred and ninety-five coins. Since you made a good silk thread earlier and gave it to me in advance, I will make it an even number, two hundred coins."

After she finished speaking, she moved the beads back and began to give money to Su Rongrong quickly.

When Su Rongrong left the embroidery shop, her feet felt a little unsteady.

Just now, after deducting the original 100-wen deposit for Luozi, a total of 15 taels and 480 wen were credited to her space.

This made her instantly give up the idea of ​​pawning some space items at the pawn shop.

With this money, not only would she have a place to buy her pots, pans, and other items, but she could also buy more food and meat and bones.

Now not only she has to make up for it, but her three younger brothers and sisters also have to.

She can't afford anything else, but meat and bones are okay.

She planned to make some carrot bone soup when she got back...

Compared with yesterday, Su Rongrong found that all prices were more expensive.

The price of a dou of coarse grains and coarse flour has increased from twenty wen to twenty-four wen, and the price of refined rice and white flour has increased even more, from forty wen to fifty wen.

In just two days, the weight of one dou increased from thirty-five to fifty.

The price of sweet potato rice also increased a bit, one stone became 350 wen.

If there weren't more and more refugees on the streets and the temperature hadn't dropped so dramatically, Su Rongrong would really be reluctant to spend money to buy this expensive food.

In the end, she bought it, and spent five taels of silver.

Moreover, the amount of food bought with this money was much less than yesterday.

After she asked the grain shop to deliver the grain to Mrs. Wang's house, she went to Caishi Street again.

When she arrived, she visited every meat stall.

She didn't buy the meat that was considered good by people nowadays, but only bought the bones and offal.

Originally, she didn't want to buy the sewage treatment machine. Not only was it troublesome to clean up, but it also consumed a lot of water.

But good meat is too expensive. When she bought it two days ago, it was less than 20 cents per pound, but now it is directly 45 cents per pound.

Originally, a pound of fish cost less than five cents, but now it has risen to ten cents.

Even the price of meat and bones rose to fifteen cents per pound.

So, in order to save money, she ended up buying all the offal and bones from the meat stalls.

Fortunately, she bought a lot, so the butchers didn't feel bad about the backpacks and simply gave her two large ones.

She had originally planned to buy pots, pans, and utensils, but when she saw so many things and it was difficult to put them all in the space, she had to carry them back.

It was also a coincidence that when she was going back, she happened to meet Da Hu who was returning from the bookstore at the entrance of the alley.

"Miss Rongrong!"

Da Hu greeted her and then took the backpack from her.

He didn't bother to find out what was inside. After picking up the backpack, he took out a stack of things from his arms and handed it over.

“This is the girl’s household registration book, and there are also house deeds and land deeds.

As for Miss Qiaoqiao's indenture, it has also been resolved. She is now a good citizen and has been included in your household registration, Miss Rongrong."

Upon hearing this, Su Rongrong quickly flipped through the household registration book. When she saw that the head of the household, Su Rongrong, and her three younger brothers and sisters were all in the register, she really breathed a sigh of relief.

She thanked Da Hu and said, "Thank you, Brother Zheng, and thank you, Brother Da Hu, for your hard work in helping me with these.

By the way, I still have to buy some pots, pans, and utensils, so I won’t be going back.

Brother Dahu, please help me take the offal and meat bones in this basket back to Jinhong.

Please also tell Jinhong that the people from the grain shop will send the grain back later, and ask him to keep an eye on it."
