The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 397 The shrewd shopkeeper

As soon as the price was mentioned, the girl's expression suddenly changed. She looked at the New Year's festival and thought it would be cheaper in the store, so she begged her mother for some money and wanted to buy some cosmetics and jewelry, but it didn't work. , a small box of Luozidai is so expensive.

Not only was she surprised, but Jing Li and others were also surprised. They were not short of money now, but when they thought that such a small box of things cost almost sixty taels of silver, they felt a little unhappy.

Sure enough, from ancient times to the present, luxury goods have always been the way to make money!
Jing Li secretly wondered if she should consider developing the women's economy. After all, women have been the main consumers of luxury goods since ancient times.

Even though there are not many manpower available at the moment, Haitang has to take care of the paper mill's current accounts and help with printing and engraving. After the spring plowing is over, the printing business will have to get back on track.

As for Wang Tan'er, Jing Li has not yet discovered her strengths. This needs to be done by those who like to study.

Jingli's thoughts are diverging here, imagining the development after spring plowing.

The waiter over there was still looking at the girl with a smile on his face, showing no signs of neglect. This was the biggest rule of Tianxiang Pavilion. Regardless of whether he was rich or poor, he was a customer who entered the store and must be treated with courtesy.

The waiters in the store had no intention of watching the excitement at all. They introduced Haitang and the others very attentively, and they didn't seem to notice what happened at the door.

The girl from the Wei family was very embarrassed and took out six taels of silver, and asked the maid to hand it to her rather painfully.

The maid named Zhusha snorted with disdain and gave the money to the man.

The waiter was still smiling, without any trace of anger, and packed the Luozidai and handed it to the maid: "Girl, please go slowly!"

After the girl from the Wei family gave her the money, she left in no hurry. She sat in the lobby and drank tea leisurely, as if she wanted to see what these country people were buying.

The waiter in the store immediately came forward to change the tea and brought some pastries. He did not show any disrespect at all, which made Jingli admire the owner of Tianxiang Pavilion. Not many people have such a sense of service these days.

"You can choose what you like. If you don't know, ask the clerk and Haitang. I promised to make clothes for each of you during the New Year. Now you have all made them yourself, so there is no use for me."

"Then I'll treat you today, you can choose yourselves!" Jing Li said very grandly, with the aura of booking the whole place in shopping malls in later generations.

Tie Hua'er and others were overjoyed when they heard this: "Really? Sister, things here are very expensive!"

Jing Li said casually: "Then do you want to buy it or not?"

"Buy! I have to buy it! Is it easy to enter the city?" Several girls said politely. They are waiting for such an opportunity next time, but they don't know when it will be.

The girl from the Wei family almost had her eyes popping out. Is she crazy?

There are more than a dozen girls, and she actually said that she would let them choose by themselves. How rich does she have to be to dare to say this!
"What are you two standing around doing? Choose, man, these two kids don't know how to choose, help them choose something suitable!" Jing Li directed the man to help Da Nier and Juhua sisters choose.

Da Nier said awkwardly: "Sister Ah Li, this is not good!"

"Hurry up, you have to rush home after you feel better. Don't wait too long to go back. It's hard to walk on the road in the dark!"

Sister Da Nier no longer hesitated, and the waiter led them to start selecting.

The shopkeeper of Tianxiang Pavilion came in at this time. Surprisingly, this shopkeeper was actually a woman in her thirties.

"Shopkeeper Chu!" The guys bowed and greeted.

Shopkeeper Chu, who is over thirty years old but has no plumpness at all. If you look at her from behind, you will definitely think that she is a cardamom girl. However, her face is just that of a middle-aged girl, but her whole body is filled with a kind of beauty that makes people want to A sense of close intimacy.

"Second Miss Wei!" Shopkeeper Chu nodded slightly towards Miss Wei. Since she was doing this business, she naturally knew the customers very well.The girl from the Wei family only came once or twice, and she remembered it.

Miss Wei Er nodded slightly and looked at Jing Li and others coldly. The shopkeepers are here today. If you don't buy it, I'll see how you step down.

Shopkeeper Chu came to Jing Li, bowed slightly and said, "Girl, is there anyone you like?"

Jing Li smiled and said, "I don't know much about this, just let the sisters at home choose!"

Shopkeeper Chu nodded and told the waiter: "Bring out all the new items that arrived in the store yesterday, and I'll try on the girl's makeup!"

Hearing this, Jing Li hurriedly declined: "I really don't need it, the shopkeeper might as well take care of his own business first!"

She never cared much about makeup, and now she had nothing important to attend, so there was no need to take care of herself like this.

But Shopkeeper Chu said enthusiastically: "Girl, it would be a bit boring to just sit and watch the sisters choose. If you are idle, you are idle. How about trying my craft?"

Jingli couldn't refuse anymore, so she had to let shopkeeper Chu help her clean up.

Shopkeeper Chu's technique was very gentle. She first cleansed Jingli's face, then used the store's lotion to stretch her skin. While doing it, she introduced the functions and usage of various creams to Jingli. The professional technique made Jingli suspect that she was... Not through time.

The master and servants of the Wei family were stunned by what Shopkeeper Chu did. They had never heard of the shopkeeper of Tianxiang Pavilion being so attentive to others!

I think back then, when Princess Xiushan was at the height of her popularity, I wanted to ask her to come over and help with makeup, but she didn't even give her the face.

It is said that there is a big backer behind Tianxiang Pavilion, but no one knows who this backer is. They only know that not everyone can mess with it.

Why should this village girl be treated like this?

While shopkeeper Chu was putting on Jin Li's makeup, Tie Hua'er and others, with the help of Hai Tang and the store clerk, each chose what they wanted.

"Oh my God! Sister, you look so good!" Tie Hua'er praised: "Why don't you just ask Shopkeeper Chu to do your makeup for your wedding?"

Zhu Sha snorted coldly: "It's really shameful. I don't think Shopkeeper Chu is such a handsome person, but he would do your wedding makeup for you!"

Tiehuaer wanted to reply, but was stopped by Haitang: "Forget it, I will go back later, why bother arguing with irrelevant people!"

Unexpectedly, shopkeeper Chu responded enthusiastically: "Okay, if the girl doesn't dislike the little woman's craftsmanship, I will be honored!"

When these words came out, the master and servants of the Wei family were stunned again. What happened to shopkeeper Chu? How could he treat a village girl so politely.

Jing Li smiled calmly and said, "If the big shopkeeper doesn't mind bothering me, I'll definitely be in trouble!"

If she hadn't noticed by this time that Shopkeeper Chu knew her identity, her years of life would have been in vain.

It seemed that the people who made the business big were all smart people. She hadn't even confirmed her identity as the princess yet. People had already gotten to know her and the people around her through various channels.

After buying the things, Haitang was about to settle the bill, but shopkeeper Chu smiled and said: "Chenghui, 300 taels!"

What, so many things only cost 300 taels, so they just wanted six taels of silver for just such a small box.
