There are many people watching the fun, but few buying.
Most people admired the beauty of the colors of the cloth, but it was twice as expensive as the original color cloth, which discouraged the poor people in the village.
Because it is a small town in the county, there are few people from the city, and those who can really afford it are at least wealthy families like the old rich man and the county magistrate.
Some girls like this color, but they only buy a foot and a half to make a girdle, scarf, etc., and make it all over their body. It is too luxurious for people who make a living by farming.
Price reduction.
Working in the low-end market was Bai Haitang's first thought.
Due to labor, cost, and thinking about how many times she tried dyes and risked disfigurement, Bai Haitang could not lower the price. She suddenly understood that maybe now was not the best time to turn every girl in the village into a beautiful girl.
"Come and buy some cloth. It's such a beautiful color. After passing through this village, there is no such shop..." Lamei continued to shout.
A person who looked like a young lady from a wealthy family passed by, accompanied by a personal maid.
A master and a servant stared at Bai Haitang and Lamei, which made Lamei feel embarrassed and thought she had tweed on her face.
Bai Haitang knew that they were admiring the colors.
"How many colors are there in total?" the maid stepped forward and asked.
"Nine kinds."
"Our eldest lady said that each item comes nine feet long." The maid said generously.
The same three meters, no matter the price. This is the customer Bai Haitang really needs.
The eldest lady still didn't say a word, all the maids were chirping, feeling very proud of her generosity.
Lamei and Haitang cut cloth for the two of them while listening to their conversation.
"Miss, we came to the right time for this small gathering. There are no such good colors in the county. Our eldest daughter is naturally beautiful and looks good in any color." The little maid said sweetly.
"Yes, the color of the cloth shop in the county town seems to be terribly old-fashioned now. Before I saw this color, I thought the color of our county town was not good. Only when I saw this color did I open my eyes and know what
It’s so colorful.” The eldest lady shook her dress.
This is the color dyed by the most expensive cloth shop in the county. It is green, but dyed the color of chicken daddy.
When I saw the spring grass green and oily green of the white begonia, my eyes were really bright, and then I realized that it was dwarfed by comparison.
"Girl, where did your cloth come from? Is it the capital?" The eldest lady couldn't care less about being reserved. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. She couldn't help but ask curiously.
She was a regular customer of all the high-end cloth shops in the county, but none of them had this color.
"This is the color I dyed myself." Bai Haitang put down the ruler in her hand to measure the cloth. This was also a courtesy to the guests.
"Yourself?" The eldest lady frowned slightly, a little unbelievable.
"This is my name tag." Bai Haitang took out a bark business card and handed it to the eldest lady.
"Qiaotou Village, Haitang Dyeing House." The eldest lady read it out smoothly, "Are you literate?" I thought that a young woman selling cloth was either the daughter of a poor family who had not yet left the court, or a young woman who was married to another man.
It has nothing to do with such elegant things as reading, literacy, music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Unexpectedly, the other party is also literate.
"I've been studying for a few years and I don't know many," Bai Haitang said modestly.
But I wanted to calculate in my heart, one year of kindergarten, two years of preschool, six years of elementary school, three years of junior high school, three years of high school, and four years of college. In total, I have attended nineteen years of school, which makes me older than this eldest lady.
