Chapter 49 The Blacksmith's Shop
"Speak less, let's go to a blacksmith shop to buy tools first, and then sell some fabrics." Ye Mingqin said to Ye Lou.

After hearing what his sister said, Ye Lou couldn't help but raised his hand to touch the clothes he had mended by Grandma Wang, feeling warm in his heart.

The reason why Yunfeng City has always been said to be big is not only reflected in its economic strength and jurisdiction, but also in its internal construction. The streets alone are wider than the big city in the historical documents that Ye Mingqin has read before. Quite a few.

Except for the large shops on both sides and the distance between two carriages passing by on the left and the right at the same time, there is more than enough room for pedestrians to walk.

The reason why I didn't drive the carriage directly onto the road a few times before was because the situation was special and I didn't want to be too conspicuous.

But now Yunfeng City is gradually returning to normal, and it is completely normal to drive a carriage on the road.

The two of them just sat on the carriage and walked forward slowly. As a result, they didn't see the blacksmith's shop, but they saw a tailor's shop first.

"Go down and buy it. I'll wait for you in the carriage." Ye Lou didn't like shopping in the past. He let Ma Xuanyi go out shopping by himself a few times before, and he just waited there.

Of course Ye Mingqin knew that her brother didn't like shopping, but she didn't like it either. In the past, except when they had to go out, the two of them basically didn't go to the street.

This also led to the fact that in the comprehensive shopping mall in the community, the supermarket they knew best was the supermarket.

Ye Mingqin didn't say much, jumped out of the carriage neatly and entered the tailor shop.

"Girl, do you want to buy cloth or ready-made clothes?" The proprietress of the tailor shop is a very enthusiastic middle-aged woman, and she greeted Ye Mingqin as soon as she stepped into the shop.

"Buy cloth." Ye Mingqin simply said in shock, then walked to the cloth and picked it up.

The proprietress was just about to ask Ye Mingqin to recommend it, but Ye Mingming directly pointed to some unisex cloth for the proprietress to wrap it up for her.

It may be the first time that the proprietress met a half-dressed but very generous guest like Ye Mingqin, and she was stunned for a while.

"I still need two sets of clothes making tools and two sets of embroidery tools." Ye Mingqin said immediately.

I was quite shocked before, but Ye Mingqin added another sentence.

"No?" Ye Mingqin saw that the proprietress hadn't responded for a long time, so she turned around and asked her a question.

"There are some, but now there are very few girls who are as generous as you." The proprietress came back to her senses and said to her while packing the things Ye Mingqin wanted.

"There are a lot of people in the family." Ye Mingqin can understand, after all, Yunfeng City is gradually returning to normal.

But whoever wants to spend all their money wisely, indeed, no one would buy such a large amount like Ye Mingqin.

"How much is the total here?" Ye Mingqin saw that the proprietress had almost finished packing, so he asked the price.

"The black and blue materials are better, one tael of silver for each piece, and the other four materials for five yuan each.

A set of tools for making clothes is three renminbi, and I brought you half of the embroidery tools, five renminbi a set, a total of five taels of silver. "

The proprietress reported the prices of various items to Ye Mingqin.

"Can't it be cheaper?" Ye Mingqin wondered if the price of the fabric was reasonable.

After all, according to Yuanshen's memory, her and her brother's clothes were mended from the village head's family's leftover tattered clothes.

But now, after all, there are still a lot of places where money is needed. Under such circumstances, the proprietress is likely to ask for a high price.

So Miss Ye, who had never negotiated a price before, spoke about the price for the first time in her life.

"Oh, girl, I didn't raise your price. The city lord's mansion issued an order yesterday, saying that shops are not allowed to deliberately raise prices, otherwise they will be punished. If you don't believe me, you can take these things to the yamen to ask Did I charge you more money?" The proprietress asked.

This city lord's mansion is really getting more and more interesting, and even specifically ordered the shops not to raise prices.

But even if the proprietress didn't raise the price, at least she didn't lower the price, but Ye Mingqin doesn't care anymore, as long as she doesn't take advantage of it, it's fine.

"Here." Ye Mingqin took out the money and handed it to the proprietress, then picked up the wrapped things and turned around to leave the shop.

Ye Lou was originally sitting in the carriage swinging his legs leisurely, but when he saw his sister coming out with so many bags, she hurriedly got up to pick them up.

"Why do you buy so much?" Ye Lou sat back in his seat after putting the fabric away, and then turned around and asked.

"I see that the children's clothes are all made up of old clothes. Let's make them a suit, and keep the rest for now. They will definitely be useful in the future." Ye Mingqin said.

Because Ye Mingqin and Ye Lou had the most ragged clothes before, Grandma Wang had to make two sets of clothes for them when making clothes, so Ye Mingqin didn't count her share this time.

"Why is my sister so kind!" Although Ye Lou always quarrels with his sister, he never hesitates to praise Ye Mingqin.

"Didn't you buy a lot of things last time? Do you know where there is a blacksmith shop?" Ye Mingqin didn't respond to Ye Lou's rainbow fart, but asked about something serious.

"I didn't go, I was watching the carriage." Ye Lou replied with a guilty conscience.

Ye Mingqin knew that his Erha brother was unreliable.

"No, didn't you go to buy farm tools with Uncle Ma last time? Didn't that guy buy it from a blacksmith's shop?"

Ye Lou looked at his sister's expression that I knew, and suddenly reacted.

Ye Mingqin glanced at his brother, but didn't speak.

"Okay, you still have the nerve to talk about me, look at yourself, laughing at fifty steps!" Seeing that he had caught his sister's trick, Ye Lou immediately became radiant.

"Drive!" Ye Mingqin changed the subject.

Seeing that his sister ignored him, Ye Lou was not annoyed, and cheerfully followed Ye Mingqin's instructions to drive the carriage.

Iron ore is a very important resource at any time, and the shops that usually sell iron tools have to go through the strict inspection of the imperial government, so this also leads to the phenomenon that blacksmith shops are not common no matter how big the city is.

After Ye Lou drove the carriage around for nearly 15 minutes and still couldn't find it, Ye Mingqin finally got impatient.

"Won't you go down and ask someone?"

"That's right, why don't you go down and ask people!" Ye Lou looked enlightened, and then jumped off the carriage and went to the nearest shop to ask for directions.

After a while, Ye Lou came back with easy steps.

"Just keep going, and then there is a small bridge. Turn right along the small bridge and there will be a shop, but the boss said that the boss of that shop has a weird temper, and I don't know how to be so strange."

Ye Lou's tone was not only curious but also excited, and Ye Mingqin didn't know what to be excited about.
