Chapter 76 Returning to Beijing for Purchase ([-])

The mule was grazing in the spirit territory, but Qi Ke didn't pull it out again. After walking out of the alley, she went shopping leisurely by herself, got to know the current situation of the capital, and got a feel for the prices.

As for the address of Qiu Shilang's mansion, I didn't ask those guards before, but it didn't matter, Qi Ke believed that she would be able to find out after she went shopping for a few more days and bought more things.

Now that the time is about to beat the drums, there are not many people on the street, and many shops along the street are closed, showing a depressing scene.

When passing by a soy sauce shop, a woman happened to be carrying a pot to buy soy sauce. After asking the price, she complained that the price had gone up again, but she still made a half pot and hurried away.

Qi Ke looked curious, and wanted to go up to ask the price, but before his feet could stand firm, he was blasted away as a beggar.

Looking at the ill-fitting old clothes, Qi Ke reluctantly went to the cloth shop first.

They walked another street and caught up with a cloth shop that was closing. The couple was busy in and out. When they saw a customer come to the door and greeted Qi Ke warmly, the couple were smart. Those who have spare money to buy new cloth, don't care how the money comes from, they will not refuse anyone who opens a shop and do business, and they will make a sum of money.

Qi Ke glanced at the store and saw that in addition to cotton and linen, there was also a small amount of silk and satin on the counter. These silk fabrics were shiny and bright even if they were plain. It was indeed a shop opened in an area where rich and noble families lived. .

Out of curiosity, Qi Ke asked about the prices of the fabrics in the store, and then bought himself enough cotton for two sets of dress socks and fine linen for middle clothes. When paying, he not only paid for the cotton and linen, but also In addition, I paid an extra deposit, and asked the store to pack all the inventory overnight, calculate the total price, and asked the store when the store opened every day. I decided to drive over at that time to get it, and hoped that the cloth head accumulated in the store would be given to her as a gift. Tim head.

This was a big deal, and the shop owner and his wife were overjoyed. They agreed again and again. The two sides signed a contract to pick up the goods. The boss took the initiative to take Qi Ke to the backyard. Since he was coming by car tomorrow, it would be inconvenient to park in front of the shop. The backyard is spacious. It can be parked directly, and it is convenient to carry goods.

After coming out of the backyard, Qi Ke remembered the features on both sides of the door, said goodbye to the shopkeeper and the couple, and continued shopping with the fabric. At the same time, he quietly took out the alarm clock to set a [-]-hour countdown, in case he was late for the delivery tomorrow.

Qi Ke walked around until the sound of drums came from the sky, and she turned into the dark alley and quietly returned to Qianhejing. She put the cloth in the living room. She went into the kitchen to wash her hands and make dinner. She pressed two taels of noodles with a noodle machine and washed a handful of them. I threw the shrimp into the noodles and ate it warmly. After tidying up the kitchen and dining table, the rice cooker was soaked with the rice for tomorrow's porridge.

The sewing room is very professionally arranged. It is a tailor shop that can be opened as it is. Qi Ke can step on a sewing machine. There used to be an old sewing machine at home. She saw her mother use this sewing machine to make clothes for her family since she was a child. She learned from her mother and quickly mastered the skills. Her mother discovered that she had this talent and thought that her daughter would take the road of clothing design in the future, so she specially enrolled her in an art class to learn painting and cultivate her aesthetic sentiment. year.

As she grew up, Qi Ke herself became more and more aware that she was interested in the mechanical structure of sewing machines. Learning how to make clothes was a natural development, and it was a surprise to be admitted to a major engineering degree.
