Chapter 364: Second Visit to the Brothel
Old Lady Hua waved her hands again and said, "We can't leave all of them for you today. We're delivering the goods that were ordered before. If you're sure you want them, one of our people will deliver them to you tomorrow."
"Okay, then you guys can send some over tomorrow, and I'll take a look and choose some to keep when the time comes."
Old Lady Hua said, "We have taken most of these cheap hairpins that cost five or ten cents, and we also have quite a few bracelets and other things. Do you want to keep some? I can give this to you today."
The shopkeeper kept some for himself. When he was checking out, he was inexplicably nervous. Don't get me wrong, he wasn't afraid of buying fake or inferior goods or getting cheated.
There were ten old ladies staring intently at his hands as he counted the money. The pressure was too strong.
If this wasn't his own shop with so many employees and it wasn't a sunny day, he would have been really worried that this group of old ladies would swarm up and rob him of his things.
He sold them for 800 coins in total. After all, even if they were cheap hairpins, he couldn't keep all of them. There were still several grocery stores, cloth shops, and other silver shops in Fang County.
As soon as ten old ladies left the store, several waiters in the store burst into laughter. It wasn't that they looked down on people.
They just feel that there are ten old ladies of similar age, dressed exactly the same, and if you don't look carefully you can't tell who is who, which is quite funny.
When passing by the brothel, Mrs. Hua pointed at it and introduced it to the old sisters: "This is a brothel, you guys will come here later..."
But she didn't even bother to talk. The other old ladies kept saying, "What? This is a brothel! It's where those losers come from, right?"
"My God, why is the door of this brothel still closed at this time?"
"I'm curious too. If the door is open, can we take a look at what's inside?"
Old Lady Hua: "It's so beautiful inside, with flowers everywhere, red lanterns hanging from the roof, and colorful silk hangings, just like a rich family getting married."
Her mother-in-law, Old Lady Wang, looked surprised: "Have you been in there?"
Old Lady Hua nodded and said, "Come, let me tell you, this is a good place. If you set up a stall on the first day, go here. Let them choose our jewelry first when you sell it, and ask for double the price.
But I tell you, it would be best if you could bring a few guys in with you, so as not to let them rob you. Who knows if those who can do this business will do other things?"
She also explained her experience with a smug look on her face: "When you go in, when the girls try on the flowers, you can't just praise them for being beautiful. You have to say, what did I say, let me think about it... By the way,
You just say you wear it at night, so that the candlelight will make it look better than during the day, and they will all throw money into your arms."
Good guy, Shen Youyou said: "Looking at a beauty under the lamp is ten times better than in the daytime."
It took the old lady a long time to explain it, but at least that's what she meant.
When the old ladies heard this, they understood: "That's right, why are they closing the shop at this time? They are busy at night."
Cui Fen stood on tiptoe to see if she could see anyone through the open window on the second floor. She was really curious, so she asked, "Should we go in and sell today?"
Mrs. Hua said, "We came here last time and sold quite a few. I guess they won't buy any for the time being."
But Cui Fen'er really wanted to go in. She said, "We have new bracelets. We have bracelets of all colors, and some with dried and fresh flowers inside. Have they seen these? Why don't we go in and ask?"
Not long after, ten old ladies really stood in the lobby of the brothel. This time they didn't see the madam, who was out. They said that the madam was not there, and the one who agreed to let them in was the top prostitute in the building.
Old Mrs. Hua knew from last time that this girl was the most beautiful one in the building and her name was also very nice, Zi Yan.
She suddenly had an idea and took out a white transparent plastic bracelet with purple flowers dotted inside:
"Miss Zi Yan, this bracelet suits you so well. Let me tell you, the little purple flower inside is called Forget-me-not. It means never forget me."
In fact, the old lady didn’t know why the small purple flower commonly seen in the wild was called forget-me-not, but she thought that the girl Zi Yan in front of her should like this flower.
Forget-me-not is a small plant, usually between 10 and 40 cm in height. It has an erect, branched, ribbed stem. The leaves are linear or needle-shaped and grey-green.
The flowers are blue or purple, sometimes white, and are bell-shaped or pot-shaped. Each flower has 5 lobes, which are triangular or lanceolate.
It likes to grow small flowers near water, in meadows, roadsides, hillsides and under forests.
It was very common in the fields in their village, so Shen Youyou asked her brothers and sisters to pick a lot of them, and then wrapped the small flowers in them like making amber.
Mrs. Hua is promoting her new product.
The other nine old ladies came in here and their eyes seemed to be overwhelmed. They wanted to look everywhere, especially at the girls who were wearing really cool clothes.
Why is that coat he is wearing similar to the mosquito net that Yoyo wears, just a layer of transparent gauze?
Also, early in the morning, everyone is awake and fanning themselves with fans. Won’t their hands be tired?
Old Lady Hua noticed that the old sisters were looking around a little bit, so she coughed twice and the nine old ladies looked away.
Old Lady Hua smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Miss Zi Yan, look, we old sisters have never seen so many beautiful girls, we are all stunned."
The little maid next to her burst out laughing, and then hurriedly glanced at her mistress's face.
Miss Zi Yan had no intention of paying attention to anything else. Her mind had long been attracted by the crystal clear bracelet with a small purple flower in the hand of old lady Hua.
She stretched out her slender jade hand, pinched her orchid finger, took the bracelet from Old Lady Hua, put it directly on her hand, and asked Old Lady Hua if she had any other styles.
This was exactly what Old Lady Hua wanted. As they displayed the bracelets and rings, they also put out this crystal clear, glue-injected hairpin, which was also decorated with fresh or dried flowers.
These are easy to make, so you can make more in one day.
As more girls came down from upstairs, the other nine old ladies knew they had to make money and no longer cared about it.
They all came up to help, business was booming, and then the madam came back.
Seeing Old Lady Hua, he frowned and asked, "Why are you here again today?"
The main thing is that the madam bought some hairpins with flowers. It's enough to wear them. It's not that you guys go to the brothel every other day. The key point is that you are here to make money, not to give money away!
Old Lady Hua recalled that when she watched a play in the past, there was a selection of the most beautiful women, and they said that the women had to throw silk flowers into a bamboo basket. She suddenly had an idea, and she approached the madam and said:
“In your building, have several people come and ask to see a girl by name, and if you refuse this one, will the other be unhappy?
Let me tell you, our flowers can not only be used as head flowers, but also as real flower bouquets and flower vases. They called a girl,
It's not easy for you to refuse, and it's not good to reject anyone, so you just let them buy the bouquet, and whoever gives more will get the meeting.
These flowers can be reused in the future. They can be sold to another group of people after they leave.”
