Chapter 17: Large-scale purchases in various parts of the county

When Chen Qingxin buys clothes, his thoughts can drift away to thousands of miles away. No one else can do this!

I didn’t buy the quilt cover and quilt lining.

I bought 5 pieces of coarse and fine cotton cloth, some solid colors and some with fine patterns.

She doesn’t like to wear or look at flowers with big patterns, so she didn’t buy any.

I bought a big bag of sewing needles and thread, as well as embroidery needles and thread, and 10 thimbles.

Mrs. Chen Li has started to get better in the past two days, and we need to find something for her to do.

I gave her some fabric and told her to use it as she wanted since it didn't cost much anyway.

The reason I didn't buy a quilt lining or a quilt cover was because I planned to sew a few large pockets with fine cotton cloth when I got home, put the cotton batting in them, and then sew the pockets shut.

After all, in your previous life, you lived to the age of 25. Haven’t you ever eaten pork or seen a pig run?

The quilt cover is used every day. With her ability to remember everything she reads, she knows how to make it just by taking a look.

In order to prevent the cotton quilt from pilling, she bought a lot of gauze and prepared to sew a layer of gauze on the outside of each cotton quilt.

In this way, the cotton batting will not come loose every time you take off the duvet cover and wash it.

We bought 5 pairs of shoes and socks for each person, and the shopping at the fabric shop was over.

When paying the bill, she handed the shopkeeper a silver note worth 100 taels and said:

"Give me the remaining 75 taels in small-denomination silver notes, okay? I want some small change, too."

"Okay, no problem. Here are five 5-liang notes and four 10-liang notes. We'll give you change for the other five liang."

The shopkeeper smiled happily and handed the banknotes to Chen Qingxin personally, and finally a bag of silver coins.

He took the banknote and stuffed it into his sleeve pocket, and actually entered the space.

The small change was put into the backpack and of course entered the space.

"This is the receipt for the custom-made clothes. Remember to bring it with you when you pick up the clothes. Where can I send these things to you? Where can I send them to you?"

The shopkeeper stepped forward and patted Chen Qingxin on the shoulder, saying in a gentle voice:

"My surname is Huang, you can call me Manager Huang or Aunt Huang."

"Next time you go into town, even if you don't buy clothes, you can come to the store to rest."

[Thank you, Aunt Huang, my name is Chen Qingxin. Please send someone to deliver these things to Wulipo outside the city.

I'm going to buy something else first and will be back later. Let your people load the car first. I'll be back in about an hour. 】

Shopkeeper Huang responded, "Okay, Miss Chen, you go and get busy first."

Just like when he entered the store before, when he came out, he was still carrying the backpack.

I had been keeping an eye on the seductive woman in the shop opposite. When I saw her, she spat on the ground in a sarcastic tone:

"Tsk! I thought I had made a mistake. You just bought a set of clothes.

Your outfit only looks like it cost 40 cents, I don't even care about this little money."

Chen Qingxin didn't even give her a glance and just walked away.

She really didn't have time to argue with this woman, so she would deal with it slowly when she had time.

Now let's go to the iron shop and see if I can buy some and a pot.

She was not used to cooking in clay pots.

Following the route given by the cloth shop owner, they soon found the iron shop.

"Ding Dong!"

"Ding Dong!"

Two sledgehammers took turns hitting the red-hot iron block.

Under the influence of gravity, the iron block began to deform little by little.

Two men, one old and one young, were sweating profusely as they swung their hammers.

The old man looked to be around 50 years old, and the young man was around 20 years old.

When the two men saw someone coming, they did not stop what they were doing.

The old man glanced at the visitor and spoke in a calm tone:

"Little girl, this is not a place for fun. If you are accidentally hit by a spark, it will be bad."

Chen Qingxin was not angry when he was misunderstood, but stared at the ironware hanging on the wall.

To be more specific, he was staring at the dagger on the wall.

The dagger has barbs on the back? There's even a blood groove!

Are the cold weapons of this era also so advanced?

She pointed at the dagger and asked, "Shopkeeper, how much is this dagger for?"

The owner of the iron shop put down the hammer in his hand and looked at her seriously.

The girl had delicate features. Although she was wearing coarse linen clothes, they were brand new. She was wearing a pair of leather boots that looked very valuable. She also did not look like someone who would cause trouble for no reason.

He said calmly: "Including the leather case, 10 taels of silver."

Chen Qingxin immediately took down the deerskin knife sheath and the dagger hanging next to him with joy, and played with them in his hand: "I want it!"

After that, a silver note with a face value of 1 taels was stuffed into the hands of the shopkeeper who looked stunned.

"Ahem! Little girl, that knife is very sharp, be careful! What else do you want?"

Now he no longer regards the girl as a child.

Chen Qingxin listed the items he wanted like a treasure: "Iron pot, spatula, iron spoon, iron rake, shovel, hoe, small shovel, 5 of each."

The iron shop owner twitched his lips and said, "Girl, ironware is a controlled item in Dashun State. One person cannot buy too much at a time."

"Hey, uncle shopkeeper, do they know how much you made? And who did you sell it to?

If the quality of the iron is not good, can we just break it and scrap it?"

Chen Qingxin made specious excuses for the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper's charcoal-black face was now smiling:

"Okay, okay, there's really nothing I can do about you. But I can only give you two of each, no more."

Chen Qingxin said, "There are two iron pots, and the rest are five, is that okay?"

The young man, who had been working silently on the iron, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

I thought to myself: Master has met his match today. He is usually very stingy, and when people come to buy iron tools from him, it is like cutting his flesh.

How could they sell so many at once today? I've never seen anything like this before.

Chen Qingxin finally paid the blacksmith shop 50 taels of silver.

Before leaving, he imposed a pair of scissors.

Then, he left with satisfaction.

He didn't walk far before throwing all the things into the space when no one was paying attention.

The next stop is the grocery store.

The grocery store owner was a middle-aged man in his fifties. When he saw Chen Qingxin, he smiled and greeted him:

"What do you want to buy, little girl? Our store sells rouge, gouache, knives, kitchen utensils, tea, spices, grains and oils, food, fruits, vegetables, and all kinds of seeds.

Chen Qingxin curled his lips slightly: "Thank you, I plan to buy a few wooden barrels, 20 bowls and plates for eating, and 20 pairs of chopsticks.

You need 10 face towels, 4 medium-sized wooden barrels and 6 small ones.

10 kilograms of cooking oil, 5 kilograms of sesame oil, 10 kilograms of millet, and 20 kilograms of brown rice.

Seeing the enlightenment books and writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone, she bought two more sets.

I also asked for some seeds of various fruits and vegetables.

“How much does this sell for?”

She saw the dusty watermelon and tomato seeds in the corner over there and asked curiously.

Don’t people here grow these two things?

The shopkeeper asked with a look of disdain: "Is this what you are talking about, young lady? I don't know what kind of seed this is.

A friend put it here for consignment. It's been two years, and no one knows what species it is, let alone anyone who bought it. "

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he let out a long sigh.

This friend of his likes to wander around and he can hardly be seen all year round.

I wanted to return it to him, but I couldn't find him.

It doesn't take up space in the store, but it looks unsightly.

You said you watch the same thing every day for more than 700 days, so I want to ask you, are you tired of it?

"How much? I want it." Chen Qingxin asked calmly.

The sandy land next to her bamboo house is not suitable for growing other things, but it is great for growing watermelons.

There is also a way to treat tomatoes. You can pile up the grass to make compost, or collect the feces of several people at home and make some organic fertilizer. It's not a problem at all.
