Chapter 41 Mobility

The boy standing in front of Tang Mi was tall and tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and an upright appearance.

Tang Gu is different from many men in the village. He looks more handsome, but because he is taciturn and doesn't like to join in the fun, he has always had a good reputation in the village.

The Tang family is now poor and has no family background, and there are still young girls who will fall in love with him, which shows that he is indeed a reliable man.

Tang Mi just looked at Tang Gu quietly, the smile in his eyes was obvious.

In fact, Liang had faintly revealed his idea of ​​lowering the price before, but Zhang Hu stopped him.Although she felt displeased at the time, she thought that more things are worse than less things, so she didn't make it clear to her family.

Now, Tang Gu just heard Liang slander her a few words, so he protected her angrily, which shows that his brother really loves her.

"Sister!" Seeing that Tang Mi didn't speak, Tang Gu just smiled, thinking she was upset, and quickly coaxed her, "Your craftsmanship is really good!"

He said seriously, "Really!"

Tang Mi really couldn't help laughing this time.

Her elder brother is too real, he doesn't even know how to say nice words, and he can't keep doing business like this in the future, he has to let the second elder brother teach him.

"En!" Tang Mi smiled and tugged on Tang Gu's sleeves, "Brother, let's go buy clay pots!"

Seeing that she really didn't seem to mind, Tang Gu breathed a sigh of relief.

The brother and sister bought six clay pots in West Market. Because they were too heavy, they both rode in an ox cart when they returned.

After hearing what Mrs. Liang did, everyone in the family said that Tang Mi did the right thing. Even Tang Liang, who had a good relationship with Zhang Hu, changed his face. If Tang Mi didn't stop him, he would have to go to Zhang Hu for an explanation. .

Tang Dashi felt uncomfortable when he heard it. He felt that he was too useless.

He has worked as a coolie on the pier for many years, and he can't help Tang Gu at all, and even let his eldest son be bullied like this on the pier.Moreover, if the family was not too poor, Liang would not dare to lower the price like this.

Overall, it was all his fault.

Tang Dashi didn't fall asleep at night, lying on the bed tossing and turning.

His movement was very small, but Jiang Shi was still keenly aware of it.

"The child's father!" Jiang raised her hand and gently pushed Tang Dashi, and said worriedly, "Is there something uncomfortable?"

Jiang has seen the wound on Tang Dashi's arm with her own eyes. She is worried that the recent heavy rain will cause Tang Dashi's arm to hurt.In the end, Tang Dashi sat up and talked to Jiang about his uselessness.

Jiang shi listened quietly, she couldn't understand her husband's helplessness.

"Dashi, in fact, sister Mi is right!" Jiang said calmly, "You and Dagu can't be on the pier for the rest of your life. It's better for us to find a new way out sooner!"

"Why don't you just listen to her this time and try to start a small business!"

The husband is also getting older, so his strength is naturally not as good as that of the young man!Jiang Shi also went to the pier to deliver meals before, and she also saw her husband bowing his knees. She couldn't help crying just watching.

As for starting a small business, she didn't dare to think about it before, but since Tang Mi's baskets and various gadgets sold better and better, she thought she could try it.

Besides, she has calculated that her embroidery skills are not bad, and she can also do some needlework to support the family.

The couple were silent for a long time, and when Tang Dashi got up and opened the window, he saw that Tang Mi's room was still lit.

He thought, maybe, as his daughter said, he could really try to do other businesses.

…………

Tang Mi didn't just say it casually, she counted the money in her hand, and there were still about four taels.

She asked Hu Sanmu the price of renting a shop in the town. It cost about two or three hundred Wen a month, and it was about two or three taels of silver a year.As for buying a shop, it costs dozens of taels of silver.The closer the shop is to the street and the pier, the more expensive it is.

Like Hu Sanmu's shop, the monthly rent is [-] Wen.

Tang Mi thought about going to the town to rent a shop, and then she and her second brother Tang Gu would arrange it in person, which would save some money.

As for the items for sale, they must be groceries...

She also thought that the stewed vegetables she made could also be sold. Pig trotters and pig heads are not expensive, and pig ears can also be tried, but the stewed ingredients have to find a way to find.

There are two prickly ash trees and star anise trees growing in the space, and the fragrance must be incomparable to the trees outside.

Her golden fingers are still pretty good.

Tang Mi was a vigorous and decisive person. When she woke up the next morning, she taught Tang Gu and Tang Dashi to weave other bamboo utensils.

Summer is here, and bamboo mats are actually the best selling thing at this time.

The bamboo mats woven by Tang Mi are different from those in other grocery stores. Not only does it look better in appearance, but also due to the problem of the technique, the woven bamboo mats are smoother to the touch without any burrs.

Tang Gu is not good at words, but he is faster than Tang Dashi in finishing work.

This time Tang Mi went to the town in person again, and told Hu Sanmu that the family was planning to start a grocery business.

Hu Sanmu was enthusiastic, and immediately told Tang Mi that there was a shop for rent in the next street, and the price was very affordable.

In fact, what Hu Sanmu thinks is very simple, Tang Gu is young and tender-looking, if the two shops are close to each other, he can still help out at that time.

Tang Mi was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately went to the shop in the next street with Hu Sanmu.

This street is a little far from the pier, so the price is not too high. The only downside is that the shop covers a relatively large area, and the rent is about 360 yuan a month.

Tang Mi liked it very much, although the rent was somewhat beyond the Tang family's budget.

There is also a small yard and two small houses behind the pavement, which can be used as storage and living quarters.

"Boss, can't it be less?" Tang Mi tried to ask, "I want to rent for a long time, not just one or two months before leaving!"

The owner's surname is Wang, and he is also very embarrassed, "Little girl, my shop is not small, and there is a yard and a house behind it. You can go to the town and have a look, and you will never find a shop that is cheaper than mine!"

"I know Miki, how could I cheat you?"

"Boss Wang, your shop has been empty for half a month, and it's still empty, so it's better to be cheaper!" Hu Sanmu said to Boss Wang, "My niece is right, she doesn't just rent one or two. months, it is a long-term business!"

Boss Wang was a little embarrassed, he looked at Hu Sanmu and smiled wryly, "Brother, you also know that the price is really not high!"

At this moment, a man's voice sounded outside the door.

"Miss Tang?"

Tang Mi raised her head and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Wen Xiuming wearing a blue long gown and carrying a basket of medicinal herbs on her back, looking over with some doubts.

He seemed to be sure, after Tang Mi responded to him, Wen Xiuming immediately smiled, "I look familiar, it really is you!"

He was originally handsome, but with such a smile, he was even more eye-catching.
