Things like leather jackets are inherently expensive and cannot be bought casually, but the leather jackets made by Shilihuhu this time are different.
There were two types of ones made in total. One was made of the best lamb wool on the inside and good materials bought from a cloth shop on the outside. It looked very luxurious and used five sheepskins.
The other is to use coarse wool and scrap leather, with a wear-resistant coarse cloth on the outside.
They had discussed it when they came, and now the market sells fur coats made of coarse cloth, which are cheap and only cost three guan.
"Three passes, three passes."
Feng Laosan was a frequent visitor to the market and had long been a familiar face among the vendors. Some people had also bought the charcoal brought by him and Shi Ping. When they saw his face, everyone gathered over.
The charcoal they sell is cheap. Now that they see this face, the first thing everyone thinks of is that he is honest and does not lie.
I came around and asked about the price, and sure enough it was like that.
"Is this leather jacket really just for sale?"
An aunt asked.
Feng Laosan said: "We brothers are not selling charcoal here every day or two. Everyone knows that we are settled in Fengxia Village and will have to do small business in the city for a long time. How can we deceive people?"
"Besides, the stuff is right here, you can look at it carefully before buying it."
As soon as Feng Laosan finished speaking, Shi Ping immediately handed over the leather jacket.
Feng Laosan opened it and let everyone see the lamb wool and shredded leather inside.
"It's not a whole piece of big leather, and the hair isn't too fine and soft. The price is low for a reason. If I said a whole piece of leather would cost three guan, you wouldn't dare to buy it, right?"
"We just buy it clearly. Everyone is optimistic about it, and the money is spent reliably."
These words are true, and everyone feels comfortable and reassured.
When buying something, don’t worry about whether it’s expensive or not. You have to know where you’re spending it.
The aunt carefully looked at the stitching of the scrap leather. The stitching was fine and neat, and it was obviously very strong. Although the wool was not the best, it was still warm when worn on the body.
The fabrics outside are also of good quality, showing that there is nothing to fool anyone.
"I want it," the aunt said with a smile, "keep it for me, I have to go back to get the three strings of money."
Feng Laosan immediately responded and put away the leather jacket. There were people next to him who hadn't finished reading yet and couldn't help but say: "I haven't taken a good look at it yet!"
"Someone bought this one," Feng Laosan said, "wait for me to get another one."
Shi Ping handed over another one: "We don't have many leather jackets, and each one is different. If you want to buy one, hurry up."
Zhao Luoyang did not intervene, and just watched Feng Laosan and Shi Ping busy.
Shi Jiu said: "They didn't run to the city in vain. From now on, everything they sell will be done easily."
Zhao Luoyang responded: "Leave this to Uncle Feng, we just need to sell those expensive sheepskin jackets."
This time, a total of five good sheepskin jackets were brought out. Such leather jackets cannot be sold at the stalls here. Zhao Luoyang has already decided to go to a clothing store.
There were several famous garment shops in the city that were frequented by wealthy people in the city. She wanted to persuade the shops to sell their fur coats on their behalf.
In a short time, Feng Laosan sold two fur coats, and there were six or seven people around him who were looking through the fur coats. Obviously, they had no worries about selling the ten they brought.
Zhao Luoyang was about to ask Zhao Xuejing to go to the clothing store with her, when Shi Jiu's voice sounded in her mind.
"Your third aunt's uncle and aunt are in the crowd on the right front."
Zhao Luoyang did not immediately look into the crowd, but called Zhao Xuejing first, and then glanced around intentionally or unintentionally.
After being reminded by Shi Jiu, it was much easier to find someone. As expected, Zhao Luoyang noticed the two people hiding in the crowd. The two people were looking here with their heads down, their eyes fixed on those leather jackets.
Zhao Luoyang smiled inwardly, because he didn't believe they could still sell such good things, right?
"Ignore them for now," Zhao Luoyang said, "If they do something else, remind me again." Anyway, Shi Jiu is here, and every move of these two people cannot escape Shi Jiu's eyes.
Shi Jiu responded: "Don't worry and do your thing!"
Zhao Luoyang then looked at Zhao Xuejing: "Third uncle, let's go."
The stall was left to Feng Laosan and Shi Ping, and Zhao Xuejing was relieved. The most important thing now was to find these five leather jackets. You must know that the price of these five pieces is far less than the price of ten pieces combined.
Zhao Luoyang put the three fur coats into the backpack, and Zhao Xuejing picked up the remaining two fur coats and the wooden frame used to support the fur coats.
Zhao Luoyang said to Zhao Xuejing as he walked: "Uncle Feng told me about the garment shops before, and I think Xue Ji is the most suitable. They have no contact with the Liu family, and they have been operating in Taozhou for more than ten years. His shopkeeper also
Very kind.”
Zhao Xueying nodded: "Then let's go to Xue Ji first."
Across two streets is a market frequented by wealthy people. On both sides are brocade shops, silversmith shops and larger restaurants and teahouses.
Zhao Luoyang quickly found Xue Ji, and the uncle and nephew stepped into the shop.
The shopkeeper of Xue Ji Shop is a man in his forties with a round face and a smile on his face. When he saw Zhao Xuejing and Zhao Luoyang, he immediately greeted Zhao Xuejing and Zhao Luoyang with a smile.
Shopkeeper Xue asked: "What do you want to buy?"
Zhao Luoyang shook his head: "Shopkeeper, I have something I want to consign with you. If I sell it, I will split the account with you. What do you think?"
Zhao Luoyang said this while his hands were not idle. He had already opened the leather jacket and placed it in front of Shopkeeper Xue.
Shopkeeper Xue was about to refuse. Their shop had always sold home-made clothes and there was no such thing as consignment. But when he saw the soft, white lamb wool, his open mouth closed again.
The sheepskin used in this leather jacket is really good, and the stitching is also meticulous. If you don't look carefully at the places where the leather is joined, you can't see the stitches.
It turned out that the furs came from the village. In the past, the Liu family sold the skins from the village at very high prices. Even if they wanted to buy them to make ready-made clothes, they thought it was not cost-effective.
But now there are ready-made leather jackets delivered...
Even if he doesn't agree to sell it, he still wants to hear how much money they are prepared to sell it for.
Zhao Luoyang continued: "Our fur coat sells for twenty-six guan. If it is sold at this price, I will give you two guan of 600 guan. If it sells for 30 guan, I will give you three guan."
etc……
Twenty-six strings?
Shopkeeper Xue heard the price he wanted to ask, but what followed closely behind was the money given to him.
Two rounds of six hundred dollars? It was a lot, far more than he thought.
Shopkeeper Xue couldn't help but said: "You..."
Zhao Luoyang said: "We are immigrants from Fengxia Village. Now we help work on the stockade. The furs used in these fur coats are all bought from the stockade. You will never be able to buy such good lambs in the entire Taozhou City."
Skin."
"If you agree, I will not go to other shops. Clothes made of good leather in Taozhou can only be bought from you. After hearing the news, everyone will definitely come to you to look for it. And we only sell fur coats, with you.
If the ready-made clothes sold are different, there won't be any bad effects. On the contrary, it will bring you business. Think about it, is that a good thing?"
Shopkeeper Xue looked at the girl in front of him. The girl spoke for a while, leaving him no time to think about it. He raised his eyes and looked over, and what he saw was the girl's smiling face.
