Chapter 13 The Beginning of a Commercial Empire

Early the next morning, Gu Yanli took Sheng Qingtang to the county seat. When he went out, he saw Mrs. Gu who had already gotten up to cook.

"You two, get out of here tomorrow. Our families have been separated. If you don't give me pension money, your father and I built this house. It has nothing to do with you. Get out of here right away."

Today, the two of them came to the county together to find someone to build a house. There are people in the village who can build houses, but no one is at home. After all, there are a few people in the countryside who need to build houses. They usually stay in the county town, waiting. People who need housing built go to them.

Sheng Qingtang followed Gu Yanli, paid a penny entry fee at the city gate, and began to look at everything around him without leaving a trace.

If Gu Yanli hadn't been by her side, she would have definitely taken a stroll, but unfortunately she needed to maintain her persona now.

This world has little restraint on women. Who's richest daughter has never gone shopping?

"Husband, I want to buy some clothes and pull some cloth to make bed sheets. I wonder where there is a cloth shop?"

Gu Yanli opened her mouth. She originally wanted to say that I have already bought it for you, but she thought that what she bought might not be what she wanted, so she could just let her choose.

After her thoughts fell, she quickly showed her the way and took Sheng Qingtang to the largest cloth pile in the county.

Sheng Qingtang took a look and saw Jiang's cloth pile written on the plaque.

After entering the gate, the store owner immediately saw Gu Yanli, who was dressed very simply and even a little shabby. I thought there would be no big business.

But after taking a closer look, there was a young woman with good clothes and a jade hairpin on her head following behind her. She had a noble temperament that could not be compared with the daughters of many wealthy families in the city.

He quickly came out and said, "What do you two want to see? Our Jiang's cloth pile has the most comprehensive range of fabrics in Lan County. We have Yun brocade, Sichuan brocade, pure cotton, silk, and misty silk here."

Sheng Qingtang thought for a while, and it seemed that pure cotton would be more comfortable for the sheets and quilts. As for clothes, any good clothes could be worn in the village. Pure cotton would be good, but the small clothes inside could be made of silk.

"Do you have one foot of light-colored, non-shrunk silk, half a piece of pure periwinkle cotton with lotus embroidery, half a piece of pure purple cotton with peony embroidery, and buy three more quilts."

"How do you sell ready-made clothes here?" Sheng Qingtang has been wearing the clothes he wore for two days and must change.

She didn't know how to make clothes, so she could only buy ready-made ones, and Gu Yanli's clothes were so washed that the color was almost gone.

Will definitely need to be replaced.

Anyway, she has money and can afford to wear these clothes.

"Go back to this madam, our ready-made clothes here all depend on the material. The better the material, the higher the price." The shopkeeper finally saw that it was this lady who made the final decision.

But think about it, this man doesn't look like a rich man.

The woman was dressed very well, maybe it was the woman's dowry that she was spending now.

Sheng Qingtang saw a set of green men's clothes hanging on the wall at a glance, "How much does this set cost?"

She felt that this outfit matched Gu Yanli's temperament and would look great in it.

Gu Yanli didn't expect that Sheng Qingtang would buy him clothes. When was the last time he bought clothes?

It seems like two years ago?
The clothes were so small that I had to buy some linen and make them myself.

Now he has a wife, someone who will think about him.

that's nice!

[666: Congratulations to the host, the villain’s malice value is -20, the villain’s malice value cannot be detected, the danger level is SSS+, the system reward points +20000, the total points +21100]

Sheng Qingtang thought about it and felt a little funny and a little distressed. Can just a set of clothes reduce the maliciousness of a beautiful husband so much?
The Gu family is really not a good person, otherwise he would not be moved by this small favor.

Gu Yanli was pushed into the dressing room by Sheng Qingtang and started chatting with the shopkeeper.

"Shopkeeper, may I ask your name?"

"My surname is Jiang." Jiang Hu didn't expect that Sheng Qingtang would ask him what his surname was. Could it be that there was something going on?
"It turns out to be Shopkeeper Jiang. I want to ask Shopkeeper Jiang. There is a closed shop in the back street, but what's the point?" Sheng Qingtang thinks the location at the back is very good and suitable for making food.

When she visited the system mall last night, she found that the system mall not only sold formulas, but also loyal slaves and simulated robots.

Doesn't this tell her that if she starts a business boldly, she doesn't have to worry about leaking the secret recipe or being betrayed?

She was so excited last night that she didn't sleep for a long time.

"There's nothing special about it, this house is just ready to be sold."

"Isn't it convenient for Shopkeeper Jiang to get in touch?" In this era, you can't just buy a store if you want to. If there are no acquaintances to guide you, people may not be willing to sell.

"Ma'am, are you going to run a shop?"

Jiang Hu looked at Sheng Qingtang with some pity, what do you mean by this picture?

This lady seemed to be a wealthy person before she got married.

Now he actually wants to start his own business. Hey, I'm afraid the eldest lady of some family has eloped with someone!

"Yes, there are some prescriptions in my dowry. It's useless to try to find the bottom of the box. I wonder if it's convenient for Shopkeeper Jiang to have it here?"

"It's convenient, it must be convenient. I'll find someone to talk to. I'll just have to wait a while for my wife to come with me."

"Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Jiang!"

"Madam, you're welcome. Aren't we neighbors from now on?"

"Shopkeeper Jiang, there's no need to be polite. My surname is Sheng. Just call me Mrs. Sheng."

The two were having a friendly exchange when a young man wearing a royal blue robe came in outside the door, "Sister-in-law? Why are you here?"

Gu Shixu went to his classmate's house yesterday but didn't come home. He didn't know that the family had been turned upside down and they were separated.

And he got no benefit at all.

"Hey, isn't this the second brother? What are you doing in Buzhuang?" Sheng Qingtang was angry with Gu Shixu, and she felt uncomfortable when she saw the fine clothes on his body.

"Sister-in-law, my clothes don't fit. I'm going to make them again."

Sheng Qingtang pretended to look at him and sneered, "Yeah! It doesn't fit. My husband's clothes have long been out of fit. But who told him that a scholar's salary is only enough to be filial to his parents and raise his younger siblings? It’s not even enough for him to wear new clothes.”

Gu Shixu knew that this sister-in-law was difficult to get along with since she came in, but now he found that she was not difficult to get along with.

What good would it do to ruin his reputation like this?
Sheng Qingtang said there are no benefits, only happiness!
He took a deep breath and tried to make his expression look natural.

"Sister-in-law, aren't you the one who has to worry about brother's clothes?"

Sheng Qingtang nodded, isn't it just me, the newly married daughter-in-law, who worries about this?

"Look, my second brother is really good at talking. He got married the day before yesterday. I took him here to buy clothes today. I'm afraid that my husband's clothes won't be good if I buy them too late!"

When it came to buying clothes, Gu Shixu's eyes darkened. Whatever money his elder brother had in his hands, all his money was given to his mother.

The money spent on clothes now must be Sheng Qingtang's dowry.

Hasn’t the dowry girl got it yet?

If they go shopping after buying clothes for their eldest brother, wouldn't they spend almost the same amount of money?

How much will he have in his hands in the end?
 I did check the fabric issue, but it was vague.
