The lady boss then realized what she had just said. The corner of her mouth twitched. Alas! Beauty can lead people astray! But the words had already been spoken, so there was no reason to regret it.

Anyway, she didn't buy much, and if no one bought it, it would cause a backlog, so it would be better to sell it and get her money back.

Because this thing is not selling well, the price has been reduced again and again, and it is close to the cost. She originally just wanted to recover the cost and be done with it.

"I'll give you a 10% discount, this is the cost. I have over a thousand kilograms of it. But the colors are not as complete as those of the old embroidery thread." The lady boss didn't lie, 90% of it was indeed the cost. The colors were not complete either, this must be made clear.

But can this little woman eat thousands of kilograms of thread? How many embroidery pieces would it take to finish? But this is someone else's privacy, so she can't ask.

Fang Qianxue tapped her fingers on the armrest of the chair. This was her habit when she was thinking.

It's possible to buy at this price, but merging the yarn into wool is a problem.

Her mind was working fast, searching for the blueprint of the original hand-spinning machine. She had this in her memory, and before the machine was made, the thread was twisted by hand. Although it was time-consuming and laborious, she only wanted to weave a sample.

"I'll explain this embroidery to you first, and then you can take me to see the goods." Fang Qianxue put the cloth bag on the table and took out the embroidery one by one.

It wasn’t much. The result of more than a month’s work only earned me more than a hundred yuan.

Every time the boss lady receives goods, she charges a higher price than those with the same craftsmanship. People who are pretty always get some advantages.

"Let's go! I'll take you to the warehouse." After the two of them paid the bill, the proprietress took Fang Qianxue to the warehouse in the backyard.

There is a door leading to the backyard in the east corner of the store.

The two of them walked out of the door, and a courtyard came into Fang Qianxue's sight. The courtyard was quite spacious, with houses all around.

"Lao Chen, Lao Chen, open the warehouse." The proprietress shouted while standing in the yard.

Lao Chen was the boss lady's husband, and the original owner had only met him twice. Normally, this man should be doing business in the front. But this man had a problem with one of his legs, and he limped and walked inconveniently, so he was in charge of the warehouse's incoming and outgoing goods in the backyard.

A door creaked open, and a man in his fifties came out. He was tall, with a full beard, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was a man, but unfortunately he walked with a limp. I don't know if it was a congenital problem or acquired.

Fang Qianxue just glanced at it inconspicuously and then looked away. She couldn't let people think that she looked at someone's leg, it was impolite.

The man nodded at Fang Qianxue, holding a bunch of keys in his hand, and found one to open the door of the next door.

The boss lady and her husband took Fang Qianxue into the warehouse.

There were a lot of cloth and many large cloth bags piled inside.

The proprietress opened one of the cloth bags, revealing the embroidery thread inside.

"Look, this bag is all red, about 100 kilograms.

There is only one color in each bag." The proprietress pointed to a pile of white cloth bags.

Her husband opened each bag and let Fang Qianxue inspect the goods.

Fang Qianxue was satisfied after seeing it. The color of the wool yarn was not so bright and glaring. This was exactly the color she needed.

"I want them all. Can I pay the deposit first? I will pick them up in more than a month.

Take a few kilograms first so I can use them when I get back." Fang Qianxue finished reading it and said after dusting off her hands.

"Okay, of course." The proprietress waved her hand and said that she was in charge of the family business.

The two hit it off immediately and went to the shop in front to write a contract in duplicate.

Fang Qianxue and the boss lady each took a copy and paid a deposit of 1,000 yuan. Fang Qianxue put the deposit receipt and the contract in the cloth bag (inside the storage ring).

Boss Chen handed Fang Qianxue a cloth bag, which contained the five kilograms of bright red thread that Fang Qianxue had requested.

Both parties were very satisfied with this transaction. One was happy because he had dealt with the inventory backlog, and the other was excited because he had gotten a bargain.

This trip was totally worth it, and Fang Qianxue was warmly sent off by the proprietress herself.

Fang Qianxue was walking on the street carrying two cloth bags. She looked at the bag of wool in her hand, reached into the bag, and some of the yarn went into the storage ring.

I dare not put them all in at once. There are so many people, there will always be those who have sharp eyes and bright minds. It is better to be cautious.

Anyway, move it in a little bit as you walk a certain distance until only an empty bag is left.

She did not forget to buy fruit. She had promised to keep her word, and with this bag as a cover, she could buy more.

I don’t know what time of day it is now. It’s really inconvenient without a watch.

But the streets are still crowded with people. Looking up at the sun, it should still be early. I came out today mainly to buy vegetables, as there is no vegetables at home. I also need to buy seasonings. She is a good cook and a picky eater. I don't want to eat noodles cooked in salt water for the second time.

I was thinking about what to buy, and before I knew it I was at the fruit stall.

The mother and daughter are still very busy.

The girl saw the girl with a black cloth on her face coming and quickly greeted her. She felt sorry for the girl. She had beautiful eyes, but it was a pity that her face was ruined. If there was nothing wrong with her face, who would wear a black cloth to cover it? She thought so.

"..."

"Girl, here I come."

"Okay, here I come. Please weigh out 10 kilograms of Baizhu fruit and 20 kilograms of sour fruit for me! I can't carry more than that." Thirty kilograms is enough. It would be difficult for her to carry more than that.

"Okay, I'll pick a good scale for you." The girl skillfully picked grapes for Fang Qianxue.

While the girl was picking grapes, Fang Qianxue looked to the side. The stall next to her was selling cloth. There were cloths of various colors and white cloth.

This reminded Fang Qianxue of batik. She decided to buy some white cloth and dye some batik cloth to test the market.

"Why did you increase the price of your cloth? And it's increased so much. It was not the same price when I came here the other day. I'm a regular customer. If you raise the price like this, we won't be able to do business with you in the future." A woman frowned and put a piece of cloth back on the stall with dissatisfaction.

"Ouch! You are wronging me. I really didn't raise the price randomly. This batch of goods encountered several waves of bandits along the way, and there was not much left in the end.

We're losing money at this price." The boss said this with a tearful tone.

This time, only one-third of the goods were left when they arrived at my house. The cost is ridiculously high, and I am destined to suffer a huge loss this time. If I raise the price too much, I will lose customers, and if I don't raise the price, I will lose everything.

Bandits? Fang Qianxue, who was watching the fun, was startled. Yes, the original owner seemed to have the concept of bandits in her memory, but she didn't know much about it. After all, she was young, and although she was not well-received, she was also a flower in a greenhouse and had never seen the big "world".

It is said that the outskirts of the imperial capital are not safe, and bandits often appear. If the emperor's feet are so rampant, what will happen to other places? The truth is even worse. Fang Qianxue dare not imagine.

No wonder there are soldiers everywhere in Yan State, these soldiers are here to suppress bandits.

What should she do? She originally planned to flee far away from the Imperial Capital, but it was even more unsafe to leave the Imperial Capital. Although her family was not human, they were still a little different from bandits.

The lofty ambitions I felt when I left the Mohist School were instantly extinguished by a basin of cold water.

"Girl, it's done." A female voice interrupted Fang Qianxue's confused thoughts.

She gave the money absentmindedly and walked on the busy street carrying the heavy bag. She was like a spectator, and the prosperity and scenery around her seemed to have nothing to do with her.

My legs now feel as heavy as the bag in my hands, and I walk slower and slower.

She felt disoriented and didn't know where to go.
