    "Are you so full from eating too much dinner, or did you become sulky after eating the fishy mutton?" Xu He patted the dust

on his thick jacket with a wool duster, instead of guarding in front of the pork stall, The clothes can also be worn for a few more days. Cotton clothes after winter are not suitable for frequent washing. If they are washed too much, they tend to get knotted and not warm. He can also stay lazy and don't have to scrub and wash clothes every day.

If it is contaminated with the fishy smell of pork, if you wear it for a day without washing it and smell the smell the next day, you really don't want to wear it on your body. Nothing is good in winter, but this is the only thing that can take advantage of it.

He slapped Zhang Fangyuan's coat to remove the dust and hung it by the side. He glanced at the man lying on the bed writhing like a cabbage worm, and shook his head helplessly. They are all people who want to be fathers. Yes, still the same.

Zhang Fangyuan looked at Xu He while lying on his back with his face propped up, and raised the corners of his mouth: "Is this something that can be said on the bright side? No matter how saucy the mutton is, if you marinate it with ginger juice, it won't be so saucy. "

How about you treat me too?"

"Ginger juice can cure mutton, but it can't cure you." Xu He covered the lampshade he bought home, so as to save the wind from blowing out the candles at night Going to go, the tip of the ear is hot: "I have to talk nonsense when I talk to you seriously, I don't bother to talk to you." "

Don't." Zhang Fangyuan got up from the bed: "Aren't you coming to sleep?"

"Winter gets dark early, go to sleep It's too late to sleep before dawn, I tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep, and I won't go to the city now, so it's hard to lie on the bed all the time with nothing to do." Xu He took out the sewing basket from the drawer, and

he The needlework is not good, as if the fingers are too long to be flexible, and those who embroider and make clothes and shoes are not as beautiful as his second sister's.

Even so, he still wanted to make some close-fitting clothes for his cub himself. There were not many shops selling children's clothes in the city, and most of the children's clothes were made by the family themselves.

Thinking that Zhang Fangyuan didn't dislike his rough hands and feet, he rushed to wear the clothes made for him after they were washed. It was obviously made later than the clothes he married before, and in the end, the more times he wore them, the longer it took. clothes are worn out first. Since the child is young, he certainly has no chance to think that the clothes made by his little dad are not beautiful.

"I'll do my sewing for a while before going to bed."

"Lighting the lamp on at night to do needlework can easily damage your eyes, and you're not afraid that I won't be able to fall asleep with the lamp on."

Xu He said, "Your temperament that you can sleep when you touch the bed, catch fire I can sleep even if I wake up, but I can't sleep without a lamp."

Zhang Fangyuan pulled the stool and sat beside Xu He: "I don't sleep, I'm here to watch you sewing."

Xu He lowered his eyes I can see that a large group of people gathered around, blocking most of the candlelight in front of me, and a shadow fell on the fabric.

"Are you sincerely making trouble, aren't you?"

Zhang Fangyuan didn't move when he heard the sound, just coiled like that. Seeing the stickiness of the man, Xu He knew what was going on in his mind. On weekdays, when I didn't have any wrong ideas, I would have fallen into bed and slept, how could it be like this or that.

He put down the work in his hand and looked at him with slightly raised eyebrows. Zhang Fangyuan smiled immediately, tapped the tip of his nose with his fingers, and hugged him shortly.

"I'm still a little worried."

"It's okay, I'm not a brat anymore, I know what's serious."

Xu He looked suspiciously at the man who had taken off his clothes and had clear muscles, his appearance didn't have much to do with what he said, and he wanted to ask You are sure, but when you find that the room is bright, you turn around and say, "Don't you want to blow

out the lamp?" "Light it up, there will be some bright light and nothing will happen." The most important thing is that he will be more excited when the lamp is blown out.

Xu He pulls the quilt, there is no mosquito net in winter, but there is a net hanging on the bed to keep warm, even if the bed is put down on the bed, you can still see each other's faces clearly, warm and soft, giving birth to a little charming: "But I'm not used to this. "

It's hard to have both.

"Well, I'll blow it after a while."

Everyone took a step back.

"Okay then."

The next day, the wind outside was blowing against the closed window, and when Xu He woke up, it was already daylight.

Zhang Fangyuan drove the carriage to the city early in the morning, and he didn't know when he left. Anyway, he heard the rustling of dressing and opening the door while he was asleep.

He went and opened the window, and light came in with a bit of fog and rain.

Winter is always gray, and even when it is almost noon, there is not much light. Such seasons and weather make it difficult to distinguish between morning and afternoon.

He propped up the window, looked at the burnt wax oil flowing on the wooden board beside him, and sighed helplessly.

.........

"Boss, I want a bowl of wontons, add more hot soup, and send it to the Linglong Toothbrush shop up front." It was

already late when Zhang Fangyuan set off to the city, and there were a lot of ravioli on Tianjie Street. The shops are already open, but he is not in a hurry, their business is no longer in the morning market, so it doesn't matter if they open later.

Passing by the side of the road where Xu He used to set up a stall, he rode on a horse and ordered some breakfast food.

"Okay."

He was already a regular customer, even if he didn't pay the money first, the vendor owner would also bring noodles.

When he was free at noon today, he went to buy a carriage and put it on. When he came here, he didn't even have a cart. I feel cold, and I just think it's interesting to ride a tall horse to open a shop in the city.

But the fun was only for a moment, the couple were used to opening a business together, it was strange that he was not used to opening the door alone today, even the proprietress of the cloth shop next to him asked Xu He.

The shop opened, and the steaming wontons just happened to be delivered to the shop. Zhang Fangyuan took out ten cents from his pocket and gave it to the hawker, and ate his breakfast like a jujube.

After dinner, imitating Xu He's way of opening the shop in the past, he brushed the teeth in the shop neatly, wiped the cabinets spotless, and took the broom to clean the front of the door. It's a great way to kill time, and it will soon be time.

"If you want to order something, you can look for yourself. If you have any questions, just call me." "

Is it the owner of Linglong Shop?"

Zhang Fangyuan raised his head when he heard the words, and glanced at the visitor. One was wearing a felt hat and had a beard. man, not like a local. "Exactly." Zhang Fangyuan

asked again: "Are you a merchant?

"

cup of tea. Since he is a merchant who takes goods, he goes to the shop to inquire, and he knows that he wants to negotiate without even mentioning the goods.

Such a businessman Zhang Fangyuan is very eager to see. When he was not in the shop before, the merchant who came to sell Luo Qi in their county town in autumn came to the shop to buy some goods to take to sell, but the order was not big. , I remember it seemed like I made four or five taels.

At that time, there were a lot of businesses with orders bigger than this in the city, and the couple didn't pay much attention to them.

"To tell the truth to my master, a small merchant came here to order some goods in the autumn, and it was very easy to sell when I went back. This morning, I returned to Siyang to send Luo Qi to the distinguished guests in the city, so I came here again to order some goods for my master." Zhang

Fang Yuan didn't know which order it was before, after all, there were many merchants from other places, big and small, and he didn't pay much attention to it, so he asked, "I wonder how much goods you want to take?" "After finishing this

order I won't be going out this year, and I want to

order as much as possible, but I don't have much money, so it depends on whether the owner can do it conveniently." If possible, go to places that are more affordable." Zhang Fangyuan smiled and refilled tea with the man: "The most important thing is to have a good conversation, make friends, and come and go often in the future." The merchant also laughed when he heard the words: "

This It couldn't be better."

I've made an order before, and I'm a regular customer, but there are no customers in the shop at the moment, so Zhang Fangyuan took people around and introduced the things in the shop with the shopkeeper. .

To be on the safe side, the merchants bought the cheapest bristle toothbrushes and saponin toothpowder. The more expensive toothbrushes and toothpowder were rarely bought, but when I took them to other counties, I found that they were surprisingly good. This morning he was much bolder.

I ordered fifty toothbrushes of various styles at one go, and selected each type of tooth powder. For convenience, I never took the tooth powder that had been divided into porcelain bottles, but directly took it by the catty. Take it away and pack it yourself.

Zhang Fangyuan wanted a lot of goods, so Zhang Fangyuan reduced the price of toothbrushes by fifteen cents in the shop, and the market price of tooth powder by twenty cents. The price can be said to be quite affordable.

Even so, Zhang Fangyuan can still earn forty taels of silver from this batch of goods at one time, which is the advantage of more goods.

"After two days, the goods will be packed and ready, and then you can come and take some goods away."

The joy of being a merchant is evident, and I am very happy to meet such a bold shop owner as Zhang Fangyuan. After traveling a lot, and meeting many cunning merchants, I cherish such merchants even more. He bowed his hands politely: "I'm Song Yong, I'm lucky to be able to get married with my boss."

Zhang Fangyuan also reported his name, and when he went to the business, he proudly paid half of the deposit, drank a cup of tea in the shop, and saw someone When the guests came, I took my leave.

Zhang Fangyuan carefully put away the bank note for fifty taels of money. This batch of goods is quite a lot, and it would be impossible to drive them out two days ago, but Zhang Fangyuan had already made up his mind to do business with the merchant when he was the first merchant to enter the shop. For a while, I always ran around without guarding the shop just to be able to stock up on more goods so that I could take big orders.

He rubbed his hands, the merchant took so much and sold it back, he thought he could make a fortune and have a good New Year.

In fact, his price is low. If you sell it slowly in a shop, you can at least double the money. When the merchants learned from others, he lowered the price in one breath, and the merchants did not negotiate with him anymore.

I think it should be much lower than the price I got last time.

"Boss Zhang, good business. Going into business is another big business!"

Zhang Fangyuan sent Song Yong out after hearing the sound, and only turned back when he was far away. Hearing the voice, he raised his head and looked right. The owner of the spice shop on the street, he smiled politely: "It's nothing more than a petty profit. It's nothing big to talk about. It's nothing

compared to Boss Xue's big business." A merchant, Luo Qi's silk and satin are sent from Suzhou every year. Many big households in the city rely on him to select goods, and cloth dealers look at his new materials for business. Such a person, the merchants in the city can't They are vying to discuss business with him, but Boss Song has always had a sharp eye. Since he came to the door, how could it be a small business."

Zhang Fangyuan raised his thick eyebrows slightly, and said the truth: "I am a small businessman, but I didn't know Boss Du Song was such a character just now. It is really disrespectful. If Boss Xue reminded me earlier, I would definitely keep him in the restaurant next door. Have a drink before letting him go."

As he spoke, he heaved a long sigh, and his appearance did not seem to be fake. The boss surnamed Xue smiled when he heard the words, and didn't say much, thinking that Zhang Fangyuan, a man of five big and three rough, really doesn't look like a veteran in the business field. He went back to the shop.

"The smell of this sauerkraut chicken can really be smelled across the street. Boss Zhang, have you ever smelled it?"

Zhang Fangyuan tilted his head, looking at the proprietress of the cloth village next door.

He couldn't help laughing: "Lao Tanqi's stewed chicken with sauerkraut is naturally delicious."
