Chapter 222: You can still make money while escaping from the desert, who would believe it?

Qiao Ran smiled and thought she was just saying polite words and didn't take it to heart.

Not to mention that she was going to the distant capital, it was impossible for Sister-in-law Yang to go all the way to thank herself.

Let’s just say that when most people make money, they would like to keep it all in their own pockets. How can they be willing to take it out and share it with others?

She didn't take it seriously, but Sister-in-law Yang was serious.

Sister-in-law Yang knew that with these drawings, her clothing store, which was on the verge of closing down, could finally come back to life!

There is still a lot of backlog of fabrics in the warehouse, and the materials are pretty good. I will make a batch of ready-made clothes first, and then buy better materials after I get some money back.

When the shop becomes famous, many noble people will come to order clothes, and the price will be much higher.

She was very confident that she would be able to make a lot of money from this winter clothes.

However, when spring comes, spring and summer clothes will start to be sold. It would be great if there were clothes styles for other seasons!

Thinking of this, Sister-in-law Yang couldn't help shaking her head and laughing.

I am so greedy!

Originally, I just thought that I could keep this shop open, but now I am sure that I can make a lot of money without closing the shop, but I also think that I can make more.

Really...

People can never be satisfied.

Until they walked out of the clothing store, the men who came to sell leather still couldn't believe it.

500 taels! This is an astronomical figure for them!

Before this, they had never seen what five hundred taels looked like.

These leathers were collected by more than 50 households in the village. Some families did not have any extra leathers to sell, so only about 60 of the more than 50 households could come up with leathers to sell. Each family could get almost ten taels of leathers, but it was also That's a lot of money.

When they were still in Qingshui Village, they worked hard for a year and could only earn more than ten taels of silver. After all the miscellaneous household expenses, it was pretty good to be able to save three to five taels a year.

But now, the family can get almost ten taels of silver, and there are still several taels left after buying the linoleum cloth. This is really a wealth that they can't even imagine.

You can still make money while escaping from famine. Who would believe it?

Qiao Ran led a group of people who were confused and followed the direction directed by Sister-in-law Yang to find a shop selling linoleum cloth.

After explaining that Sister-in-law Yang introduced me, the shopkeeper was very enthusiastic and waved the waiter to bring out a large pile of linoleum cloth.

The shopkeeper is a middle-aged man with a kind face and gentle words.

"Sister-in-law Yang and I are somewhat related. Since she introduced you here, I will naturally give you the best. This batch of linoleum cloth is of the best quality, thick, durable and non-leakable. It will be the best for you to use on the road. If it’s suitable, it can keep out wind, rain and even snow.”

Qiao Ran stepped forward and touched the linoleum cloth. As expected, it looked very thick and durable, perfect for setting up tents.

"Thank you, shopkeeper! What is the price of these cloths?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "The big ones cost two taels of silver per bundle, and the small ones cost one tael of silver per bundle."

Qiao Ran took a look and saw that the rolled thickness of the two specifications was about the same, and the smaller ones were not much smaller than the larger ones.

She also asked to unfold the two sizes of linoleum cloth for comparison, and the shopkeeper readily agreed.

The men who came together started to unfold two bundles of linoleum cloth, one large and one small.

Qiao Ran compared it. The big one was about 5 meters by 5 meters, and the small one was about 3.33 meters by 3.33 meters, which is what the ancients said was one foot long and one foot wide.

She roughly estimated how many families there were in the village that had a larger population and brought more supplies, and she had an idea in her mind.

"Excuse me, shopkeeper, we want 30 bundles of big ones and 50 bundles of small ones, both of this quality. Please calculate how much it costs in total."

"Okay! Please wait!"

When he heard that they wanted so much, the shopkeeper smiled from ear to ear and quickly started calculating with his abacus.

"Ran Ran, we only have more than 60 households, why do we need to buy 80 bundles of cloth?"

Qiao Erhe asked puzzledly.

Qiao Ran replied: "Second uncle, in addition to setting up tents for sleeping, we also need to buy more cloth for the cows and horses to put up tents to avoid freezing to death! We also have our bullock carts, carts, and luggage, which can be piled together. "

"Well, you're still thoughtful."

Although he felt sorry for the money, Qiao Erhe didn't say anything else.

I have spoken, and I have entered the city and listened to Ran Ran.

"Thanks for your patronage, the total is 110 taels."

The shopkeeper settled the accounts and said to Qiao Ran.

When the men heard that so much money was required, they all felt a little sad.

They have never bought such expensive linoleum cloth before, but they are worth every penny, and they can also see that the quality of these linoleum cloths is not comparable to the cheap ones they bought before.

Although they didn't understand why Qiao Ran bought the most expensive one, since they had decided to listen to her in everything from now on, no one questioned it.

Anyway, this money was earned only because of Qiao Ran and the others. Use it as she says, and she will never harm anyone.

Qiao Ran looked around the shop and saw some scraps of linoleum cloth piled on the floor.

She pointed to the ground and asked: "Shopkeeper, are you keeping these pieces of cloth for no use? Can you give them to me?"

Being able to do such a large business was enough to meet his usual monthly sales. The shopkeeper was very happy. When he saw Qiao Ran asking for those rags, he waved his hand generously:

"Yes, yes, yes! If you want them, just take them all! There are still two sacks in the warehouse, and I'm thinking of saving them together and taking them to the countryside to throw them away. If you want them, I'll give them all to you!"

"Thank you, shopkeeper! Then I'm welcome."

The shopkeeper asked a few guys to go to the warehouse and bring out two sacks of cloth, and gave them to Qiao Ran along with the sacks.

"Now, these are all for you. I wonder what the girl wants these pieces of cloth for?"

Qiao Ran smiled and said: "The ground is cold in winter, so we lie on the grass to sleep at night. We use these scraps of rags to sew and sew together to make mats to spread on the ground. It can also prevent cold, moisture and bugs."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he praised: "You still have an idea! This is such a good idea."

He thought for a while, then went in and took out a few sets of needles and threads: "Since we have to sew, we can't lack needles and threads. I'll give these to you too!"

"Thank you, shopkeeper, you are such a good person! A good person will have a safe life and make a fortune! This is one hundred and ten taels, please keep it!"

Qiao Ran handed over a silver note worth one hundred taels and a silver ingot worth ten taels.

"Thank you for your patronage! Thank you also for your kind words, girl, hahaha!"

The shopkeeper smiled very happily, this little girl is such a cheerful person!
