Three hundred taels of silver was enough to do many things for an ordinary family, but it was still not enough for Bai Ling 'er. If the buyer used this money to build a house, he would have to use more than half of it to treat his father's leg.
She still had to earn a lot of money.
Bai Ling 'er and the two of them found a workshop. The shopkeeper was a very smart woman. Her surname was Zhang, and everyone called her Madam Zhang.
Although this Madam Zhang was middle-aged, she still had a charming charm. She looked shrewd and worldly, very much like the lady boss.
Mrs. Zhang first looked at the Wang family's purse and Luo Zi. The Wang family's craftsmanship was quite exquisite, but the style of Luo Zi and purse was very old-fashioned and did not have much creativity.
"Little girl, these nets and pouches can only be considered ordinary. According to the standard price, I can give you a purse for five wens and a net for three wens. What do you think?”
Bai Ling 'er naturally knew that the two items that the Wang Consortium made were not worth much. She also wanted to provide some new tricks to the Wang Consortium. However, she was no longer the Bai Ling' er she used to be. If she suddenly knew everything, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.
Fortunately, the money from selling the ginseng was enough to renovate the house and hire a doctor. Otherwise, he really didn't know how to welcome winter.
Bai Ling 'er then took out the little toys that her father had carved. Madam Zhang's eyes lit up when she saw these lifelike wooden carvings.
The things Bai Qiyao carved were very vivid. There were exquisite hairpins with beads, hollowed out incense balls, and bracelets with flowers, birds, and fish. There were also various types of pressed skirts. The workmanship was exquisite, and the polishing was smooth and beautiful.
"These wooden carvings look good. I'll give you ten coins for one.”Mrs. Zhang was interested in small wood carvings. She was a smart woman and immediately saw the business opportunity.
Although wooden hairpins were not rare objects, and peasant women could not afford silver jewelry, they had a special liking for wood carvings, which were economical and practical. Therefore, there were many wood carvings on the market.
However, he had never seen such a hollowed-out incense ball or an exquisite flower hairpin. These two items were exquisitely crafted and ingenious. If they were sold, they would definitely be very popular.
Bai Ling 'er was the one who thought of this. She used the excuse that she wanted a hollowed incense ball and asked Bai Qiyao to make it for her. Naturally, Bai Qiyao discovered the benefits of this thing.
Madam Zhang also felt that this new style of incense balls and wooden hairpins would definitely be popular.
Bai Ling 'er was not satisfied with the price. Bai Qiyao had worked hard to make these wooden carvings. It was different from the Wang Consortium's ordinary appearance. They definitely could not sell the fruits of their labor at a low price."Madam Zhang, the workmanship of this wooden incense ball and exquisite spinning pearl hairpin is very complicated. Every detail is a waste of time. Therefore, the price was slightly higher than the other two.”
After saying that, he paused for a moment before continuing,"How about this? The rest will be priced at ten copper coins." Incense balls and hairpins are fifteen wen.”
Madam Zhang sized up Bai Ling 'er and Erdai without saying anything.
Bai Ling 'er thought for a moment and continued," If Madam agrees to this price, we'll sell our wood carvings in Madam's shop in the future. We won't sell them in other jewelry stores." I think that without competitors, Madam's business will definitely prosper.”
This was equivalent to selling the copyright. In the future, Mrs. Zhang's shop would be the only one. The selling price was completely up to her. Why would she be afraid of not earning it back?
When Mrs. Zhang heard this, a smile immediately crawled onto her face again.
Bai Ling 'er successfully sold everything.
The next step was to purchase. With money at home, it was imperative to renovate the new house.
However, before she bought the materials, she needed a cow and a cart.
Not only did they need cattle to farm in the future, but they also needed to travel to and from the town to buy and sell things.
Although Erdai had lost his memory, he seemed to be very good at choosing cattle. He chose a cattle that looked gentle and strong from the cattle seller.
Bai Ling 'er smiled and said," Maybe he's just a cowherd boy. He heard some secret and was hunted down."
She had originally brought Erdai home because she wanted to take advantage of him. Erdai was a rich young master. Now, Erdai didn't look like a noble anymore. She really suspected that Erdai was a cowherd.
However, it was a joke to say that he was being hunted because he heard a secret.
After the cattle and cart were settled, Bai Ling 'er went to buy some cloth. She had to make clothes for her family and her uncle's family. She had to make a few more pieces of cloth for Little Ming 'er to make diapers. She also had to make curtains and new quilts.
He also bought some snacks for Bao 'er. When he returned to the village, he had to buy a milk goat for Little Ming 'er. Little Ming' er was only a few months old. She had no milk and could only eat rice soup. It was really pitiful.
She wanted her parents and Bao Er to live a good life tomorrow, and she also wanted her grandmother's family to be rich.
When he was buying meat, he met the wife of Wang Dayou from the Wang Family Village. She was the wife of Wang Dayou who had said that Bai Ling 'er's ginseng was a radish.
Da You's wife was in her thirties and was slightly plump. She was a famous shrew in the village. Otherwise, why would she be the only one who could take care of her lazy and greedy Wang Dayou?
She also came to buy meat, but she forgot to bring money. She wanted the butcher to give her credit, but the butcher refused, so there was a dispute. Da You's wife often came to buy meat. She thought that the butcher should give her some face and give her credit, but she did not expect that she would not buy it at all. If she went back to the village to get money to buy meat, she did not want to run back and forth so far. Therefore, she had to grind the meat seller to give her credit.
It was obvious that his wife was in the wrong. Bai Ling 'er didn't want to approach him, but it was too late.
"The niece of the Bai family!" Da You's wife called out to Bai Ling 'er when she saw her.
When they saw people from the same village, they thought that there was strength in numbers. This prostitute bullied her. She couldn't take it lying down. She had to argue with him to the end.
However, when he saw Dumby, the ox cart, and the things on the ox cart, he was pleasantly surprised! Everyone in the village knew that Bai Ling 'er had dug up the ginseng. This little girl must have made a fortune after selling the ginseng.
Bai Ling 'er was his junior in terms of seniority, so she had to call him aunt. If she had money, then she should buy two catties of meat for herself.
Bai Ling 'er rolled her eyes in her heart. She was annoyed that she had run too slowly. This daughter-in-law was definitely a problem!
She really wanted to hide far away and say that she didn't know this person. However, now that she had stopped him, he could only bite the bullet and say a few words.
"Aunt, buying meat. Erdai and I are in a hurry to go back.”
It was obvious that he was leaving if there was nothing else.
However, she had underestimated how thick-skinned Da You's wife was.
Da You's wife was overjoyed to see her and Erdai drive to the meat stall. She didn't care if she was happy or not.
"Oh my, Aunt's niece. Aunt wants to buy some meat and forgot to bring money. This wicked butcher insisted that his aunt go back to get the money. How could this ten-mile mountain road be so easy to walk? What kind of person was his aunt? How could she cheat him with two catties of meat on credit? She was really a snob.”
The reason why Da You's wife was so angry was because the meat seller said that if she didn't have money, she wouldn't be able to eat meat. She couldn't keep her face up, so there was a dispute.
When the butcher heard what his wife said, he couldn't take it anymore.
"Who are you calling a dog? There was such a logic in this world. If you didn't have money, you would force others to give you meat on credit. Who do you think you are? Even the county magistrate doesn't have as much power as you. You're really thick-skinned.”
"Who says I don't have money? My niece is here. Let me tell you, I'm going to eat this meat today.”When she heard that the prostitute was laughing at her for being poor again, the daughter-in-law felt even more embarrassed.
She turned around and rushed to Bai Ling 'er's side, grabbing Bai Ling's small arm.
"Niece, you have to help Aunt today. Aunt forgot to bring money with her when she came to sell meat. Bai girl, you just came back from selling ginseng, right? Help Aunt buy two catties of streaky pork.”
Da You's wife said it so confidently that she did not look like she was asking for help at all. She did not even say that she wanted to borrow money. Bai Ling 'er thought to herself that there were many weirdos in the world.
However, she was just a little girl. In front of the elders, it was not good for her to fall out with them and directly embarrass them as daughter-in-law. Their family had just arrived at the Wang Family Village, and it was not good to make enemies here, let alone make people have a bad impression of their daughter-in-law.
Bai Ling 'er smiled." Who said that my aunt doesn't have money? It's just that it's too slow to go back to the village to get it. My aunt is not the kind of person who would take advantage of others and owe others money."”These words were like putting Da You's wife on the spot. If she owed a little girl like her money and took advantage of her, she would see how her old face would be put down.
Hearing Bai Ling 'er's words, Da You's wife felt a little smug. However, she soon became unhappy.
"Aunt forgot to bring money, so Ling 'er helped Aunt buy it first. Aunt, don't feel embarrassed. Anyway, we're on the way. When we reach the village later, you can return the money to Ling 'er. Ling' er wants to ask Aunt for candy.”
Bai Ling 'er's innocent, pure, and kind expression made the onlookers think that she was a good girl. She had been trying to put in a good word for her aunt.
However, everyone could see that this aunt was just taking advantage of him. The little girl was probably going to be fooled by her aunt.
"Alright, help me weigh two catties of streaky pork. I'll give you money when I return to the village.”
After hearing Bai Ling 'er's words, Da You's daughter-in-law was too embarrassed to tell a twelve-year-old girl to buy it for her. However, she felt that as long as the meat was in her hands, who could do anything to her if she did not return the money?
In her heart, she was dreaming. It was a pity that he had underestimated Bai Ling 'er. How could he take advantage of her like that?
"Boss, help me weigh four catties of streaky pork. Split it into two portions, two catties each. Thank you.”
The butcher pursed his lips and cut the meat. He thought that the little girl was polite and her words were pleasant to the ears.
Bai Ling 'er took the four pounds of meat and handed it to Erdai. She said to Da You's wife,""Aunt, the road back is quite far. Take my family's ox cart back. It's on the way.”As he spoke, he held Da You's wife's hand and walked towards the ox cart.
The three of them drove away, not realizing that a familiar figure in the corner had been staring at Bai Ling 'er for a long time.
Bai Qizu didn't expect to meet his niece at the market, and he didn't expect her to be rich. He was also here to buy meat, but he was surprised to see Bai Ling 'er paying for Da You's wife.
Bai Laosi watched them leave. He wanted to hurry home and tell his mother that the third branch was rich.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:111420184: 31PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
