Chapter 91 Shopkeeper Ren’s invitation

He Jiuniang knew what she was worried about, so she smiled and said, "Don't worry, there are far more rich people than you think."

Jingzhou is already rich and has never experienced a drought. Coupled with the arrival of refugees, the prices of many local things in Jingzhou have increased. It can be said that the locals are making a lot of money, so why worry about buying clothes?
Just like when clothes were sold in the morning, everyone onlookers shouted that the price was expensive, but in the end, they were all sold in high numbers?

Lianhua nodded, she believed Aunt Jiuniang.

The two led the horse to find Lu Guilan and his wife. At this time, they had already agreed on the price and were waiting to build the cart. The couple stood under a tree to enjoy the shade, having been busy all morning without even drinking water.

"Aunt Guilan!"

Lotus saw them and waved to them, and the couple came towards them.

"Have you bought the fabric?"

Lu Guilan said, opening the curtain to take a look, and her eyes widened when she found that she had bought a lot of high-quality materials.

"There are so many good materials, third sister-in-law, do you want to sell our clothes to rich people?"

The ones sold in the morning were all ordinary linen fabrics, which were already expensive. If they replaced them with high-quality materials, their costs would increase, and the price would definitely rise as well, and they might be even more expensive than cotton-padded clothes.

Calculating it this way, rich people are naturally more willing to buy cotton-padded clothes, so they won’t lose these fabrics in their hands, right?
She was worried in her heart, but she didn't say it out loud. She knew that He Jiuniang always had her own ideas, and was afraid that she would say something she shouldn't and make a joke.

Of course, even if she didn't mention He Jiuniang, she could guess what she was worried about, so she took the initiative to explain: "I thought we wouldn't make any money by selling to ordinary people, so we might as well develop into a wealthy area. Our feather uniforms are no better than The cotton clothes are poor, not to mention, we are going to make new patterns, so don’t worry!”

He Jiuniang never does any uncertain business. The clothes she sells to the rich must be of high quality, and the feathers must not be rough. The good and bad must be distinguished, and the fine parts can be sold at a high price with peace of mind.

After hearing what she said, Lu Guilan began to look forward to it. She really didn't know how many surprises this third sister-in-law could give them.

"It looks like it will take some time for the carriage and carriage to be ready. Let's go eat first!"

He Jiuniang suggested that everyone was hungry after a busy morning.

"Is it too expensive to eat in the town? Let's endure it and eat at home."

We all come from hard times and are generally not willing to eat on the street because the food on the street is very expensive.

"It's okay. How expensive is it to eat once in a while? There will be more clothes to sell in the future, but you still have to eat."

He Jiuniang has never eaten snacks on the street since she came to this era. Although she has everything in her space, she has no way to eat them with a big family living together, so she has been craving for roadside snacks for a long time.

She took the lead and walked in front. Lu Guilan and his wife looked at each other and followed. On the one hand, they were really hungry, but on the other hand, they felt that they would not be afraid if the sky fell and their third sister-in-law was still there to support them, hahaha~
A few of them didn't have the luxury to go out to a restaurant, so they just sat down at a roadside stall selling mutton noodles.

However, eating at a roadside stall does not mean that you can save money, because He Jiuniang shouted to the boss: "Boss, come to four big bowls of mutton noodles and add more meat!"

"Okay, sir, a big bowl with meat is five cents per bowl!"

As soon as the boss saw that there was work, he immediately started working.

When Lianhua heard that four bowls cost twenty cents, which was equivalent to the wages of a strong man, he hurriedly said: "Aunt Jiuniang, I can just eat a small bowl, and... there is no need to add meat!"
The boss looked at He Jiu Niang again, and He Jiu Niang said very arrogantly: "Don't listen to her, just four big bowls with meat!"

"Okay! Wait a minute, guest officer!"

As soon as they sat down, a little boy of seven or eight years old came up with tea. He must be the boss's son. He was quite sensible and invited them to drink tea in a polite manner.A few people were not polite. I was really thirsty after working all morning.

The noodles were served quickly, and the meat in this big bowl was really affordable. The bowl was bigger than your head, and the mutton slices were also spread tightly.

He Jiuniang hadn't eaten mutton for a long time, so she immediately said: "These five cents are well spent! Eat quickly, Lianhua, you need to eat more to grow taller, you will be busy in the future!"

How could a half-grown child like Lian Hua not be able to finish eating when he is most able to eat?
He Jiuniang was not worried at all and just kept her head down and started working.

Lu Guilan and his wife are also breaking the rules. Let's eat. They haven't tried this fragrant mutton noodles yet!
Just when He Jiuniang finished the last sip of soup, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy came over: "Ms. He, I finally found you. Our shopkeeper wants to meet you! Please come with me." !”

He Jiuniang raised her eyes and saw that it was the boy from Yuyuantang. If I guessed correctly, it was shopkeeper Ren who wanted to see her for a consultation again.

But hadn’t she already rejected it clearly before?

After thinking about it, she said to Lu Guilan and others: "You guys eat slowly, I'll be back as soon as I can."

It's not very far from the place where pallets are loaded. She can come back to them later.

"Did something happen?"

Zhang Song stood up nervously. He was the only man here. If something happened, he would definitely stand up.

"It's okay. This is a young man from the medical clinic. He is probably talking to me about medicine business. Don't worry!"

After He Jiuniang finished speaking, she got up and left with the young man. Before leaving, she paid for the mutton noodles.

When they arrived at Yuyuantang, the shopkeeper hurriedly put down what he was doing and came forward, smiling like an old chrysanthemum.

"Ms. He is here! Please, please, please!"

Shopkeeper Ren personally took her to a private room and asked the waiter to serve her tea. It seemed that she was going to entertain her well.

"Ms. He, I believe you also know the reason why I called you here. You have a very good foundation. As long as you are willing, I am willing to accept you as a disciple and teach you medical skills personally. Besides, I will also give you five taels of silver every month. Why? Sample?"

In this era, five taels of silver per month was considered a very high salary, but for He Jiuniang, it was very low.

She didn't refuse immediately, she was just thinking about something seriously.

If we get along for a long time in the future, her medical skills must be properly revealed, and there must be a source for this. It would be a good way to let shopkeeper Ren support her and give her medical skills a way out.

But in comparison, she is actually more optimistic about the doctor she met when she first entered Jingzhou City. After all, he was an imperial doctor from the palace. His medical skills are worth learning from and he can help her better. But now she lives in Daling. County, it is somewhat inconvenient to go to Fucheng, so I can only let the old doctor fly.

"I know that Shopkeeper Ren has good intentions, but although I haven't seriously studied medical skills, I have read a lot of medical books. I shouldn't be less familiar with Shopkeeper Ren."

In other words, he just doesn't want to be his apprentice.

He Jiuniang took a sip of tea and said slowly: "However, I am a little interested in what shopkeeper Ren said last time. However, it needs to be changed according to my requirements. I just don't know if the shopkeeper can accept it."
