Chapter 54 Yu Family Cloth Shop
Li Banfeng wants money, one thousand yuan!
"Okay, okay..." Xiao Yeci quickly took out one thousand cash from the wicker box and gave it to Li Banfeng. Li Banfeng counted it twice and put it in his inner pocket.
The two said goodbye, Xiao Yeci and her daughter went to the old house of the He family, and Li Banfeng went to the Yu family cloth shop.
The gorgeous cloth shop owner Yu Nan came up to greet him: "You want to buy cloth? Come here and take a look. This is copy satin and Ku satin. Here are Ning silk and Huaxianchun. Here are Huaya and Hang Luo. Here are Hangfang and Hu crepe. Which one do you like?"
This shop mainly sells silk, but Li Banfeng didn't want to buy cloth, and he didn't know how to cut it.
Yu Nan talked for a long time, and seeing that Li Banfeng was not interested, she asked: "Are you going to buy ready-made clothes? We have tailors here. If you don't like the ready-made clothes, we can make one for you."
Li Banfeng shook his head: "I don't buy clothes either."
Yu Nan bit the slender pipe, was silent for a moment, and smiled: "Are you buying a silk handkerchief?"
"No."
"Are you buying a quilt cover?"
"No."
"Are you buying a bed curtain?"
"No."
Yu Nan took a puff of the cigarette and frowned: "Then what are you buying?"
"Cigarettes."
Li Banfeng smelled the cigarette and thought it was pretty good.
Yu Nan blinked her big eyes and confirmed again: "Are you coming to our cloth shop to buy cigarettes?"
"Don't you have cigarettes?" Yu Nan was smoking, and Li Banfeng felt that his idea was reasonable.
Yu Nan's face darkened slightly: "Are you teasing me on purpose?"
Li Banfeng didn't quite understand the meaning of teasing: "Are you selling it or not?"
After a long silence, Yu Nan turned to the waiter and said: "Bring two packs of Da Xian Nu and give them to this customer."
Da Xian Nu is a very famous women's cigarette in Provence.
The waiter brought two packs and Li Banfeng put them in his pocket.
"How much?"
Yu Nan smiled: "No money, I'll give it to you."
This man is so straightforward, but Li Banfeng never asks for things from others for free.
"Make me a suit, choose better material."
Yu Nan shook her head: "We don't sell Western clothes here."
This store only sells traditional clothes.
Li Banfeng looked at the ready-made clothes hanging in the shop, pointed at a piece of clothing and said, "I want this... a very long piece of clothing."
Yu Nan looked back and smiled, "You want a long gown?"
"Yes, a long gown."
"Old Eight!" Yu Nan called the waiter, "Bring a ruler, I'll measure this customer carefully."
Yu Nan personally took the measure of Li Banfeng, and while measuring, he asked, "What's your name?"
"My last name is Li, and I'm the seventh child." Li Banfeng reported Li Qi's name as usual, and then asked, "What's your name, the boss lady?"
"My last name is Yu, and my given name is a single male character. Mr. Qi, if you think highly of me, just call me the shopkeeper."
This shopkeeper Yu doesn't like to be called the boss lady by others, because she is the owner of this cloth shop, and this is her own shop.
"So it's Shopkeeper Yu, I'm sorry." Li Banfeng imitated the local tone and said a few polite words to Yu Nan.
Yu Nan was half squatting to measure Li Banfeng's waist. She raised her head with bright eyes and smiled at Li Banfeng: "Seventh Master, where do you live? I'll send the clothes to you when they are ready."
"I just came to Li Gou." Li Banfeng said perfunctorily.
Manager Yu took the tape measure and measured Li Banfeng's legs again: "A few days ago, I saw you come to Fengji Grocery Store to buy a lot of things."
What this means is that you are not new to Li Gou, I have noticed you for a long time.
Li Banfeng did not deny it: "I come and go in a hurry, and I don't have a fixed residence."
"Then how can I give you the clothes?"
"I will come to pick it up in three days. You can help me choose the fabric and calculate the price first."
Yu Nan chose a piece of medium-to-high-quality silk for Li Banfeng, fiddled with the abacus for a while, and asked: "Do you use Huanguo banknotes or big money? We also accept half-open."
Li Banfeng didn't know what half-open was, but he had big money, and he really wanted to know the exchange rules of big money.
"How much does it cost in dollars?"
"One dollar, including labor and materials."
"Where are the Huanguo notes?"
Yu Nan was stunned: "One dollar for five hundred Huanguo notes, I don't need to tell you this."
Five hundred dollars for a set of clothes, let alone in Yaowanggou, even in Yuezhou, is a bit extravagant for Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng took out one dollar, plus two hundred Huanguo notes, and handed them to Yu Nan.
Yu Nan was waiting for Li Banfeng to bargain, but found that he gave two hundred more: "What do you mean?"
She thought Li Banfeng wanted seven hundred to buy two pieces.
This can't be sold, the price is too high.
Li Banfeng said: "One dollar for clothes, two hundred Huanguo notes, ask Yu Banfeng to do something, if there is any news about Feng Banfeng in the next few days, please let me know."
Yu Nan smiled: "This is a small matter, no money."
After that, Yu Nan returned the two hundred Huanguo notes to Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng waved his hand: "Just accept it. I want to make friends with you."
For Li Banfeng, if you don't pay someone, you have no right to ask them to do things.
Yu Nan admired Li Banfeng's straightforwardness. She took the money and said to Li Banfeng in a low voice: "If you are not satisfied with the clothes, you can return or exchange them. There is another thing I don't know if I should tell you."
"Please tell me, boss."
"A friend who came to Li Gou with you before asked for food in Weiwei Hutong. I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for a few days."
The friend who came with me?
"Which friend?"
"That honest and strong friend."
Fatty Qin?
Li Banfeng was stunned.
Qin Xiaopang's family is not rich, but he is not so poor that he has to beg for food.
What's more, he also got eleven snake-spotted pills. In Puluo Prefecture, as long as they are not for special purposes, the price is not expensive. One pill sells for 10,000 or 110,000, which is enough for Xiaopang to be famous for a while.
How could he be asking for food?
"Is there some reason here?" Li Banfeng felt that the situation might be a bit complicated.
Yu Nan looked around and lowered his voice: "Master Qi, it seems that your friend has offended the Geng family medicine store because of selling elixirs.
The people from the medicine shop threw him into the street and found someone to guard him and let him starve to death. The Geng family medicine shop had contacts with Jiang Xianggang, so this was something they often did. "
Hearing this, Li Banfeng thought for a moment and asked, "Is the person guarding him a cultivator?"
Yu Nan nodded: "He is a cultivator, and he used to have some issues with me."
"What sect, what cultivation level?"
"The cultivation level is not high, but the Taoist sect is special." Yu Nan blew out a puff of smoke on the counter, and the smoke changed into the word "oil" and then dissipated.
This woman can freely control smoke. Li Banfeng asked in a low voice: "Are you a smoke cultivator?"
Yu Nan smiled and didn't answer.
Li Banfeng asked again: "Are you taking the initiative to talk to me today so that I can help you get revenge?"
Yu Nan smiled and said: "I didn't say anything, but if Master Qi wants to save your friend, the shop is willing to help."
Li Banfeng frowned and said, "Is this considered cooperation? Why are you looking for me?"
Yu Nan said: "Because Boss Qin is a friend of Master Qi, and Master Qi is a capable man."
Li Banfeng did not deny the matter of being a friend: "How do you know I am capable?"
Yu Nan blew out a puff of smoke: "Anyone who can come back alive from Kuwu Mountain has real abilities."
This woman seems to have been targeting me for a long time.
Li Banfeng thought for a long time.
Fatty is in trouble.
Should I help him?
Li Banfeng didn't owe Xiaopang anything. Even if he owed him before, he would pay it back afterwards.
But he was starving to death.
When Li Banfeng was hungry, Xiaopang treated him to two bowls of Yangchun noodles.
…
Weiwei Hutong is a relatively closed alley. There are old houses on both sides of the alley, and all of them live in poor families.
During the day, there were not many pedestrians passing by the alley. In the evening, the number of pedestrians gradually increased. Qin Xiaopang, who was kneeling on the ground and dying, opened his eyes.
Dusk is his last hope for survival.
A passerby saw him in tattered clothes and covered with wounds. He felt really pitiful and threw half a piece of cake to him.
Xiaopang reached out to pick it up.
Beside him, a man wearing a mandarin jacket and a felt hat stepped on the pancake.
"Did I let you eat it?" The man in the jacket looked down at Qin Xiaopang and spat in his face.
Xiaopang said nothing and took his hand back.
A passerby couldn't stand it, so he stepped forward and asked, "Hero, what can you do for a beggar?"
The man in the mantle raised his head, his left eyebrow sank, his right eyebrow raised, his mouth tilted, showing a standard scoundrel smile: "What the hell does it have to do with you?"
The passerby still wanted to argue, but a woman next to him pulled him aside: "Don't mind your own business. This is the Geng Family Medicine Store's prestige. Let's go quickly."
When they heard that it was the Geng Family Medicine Store, the passers-by didn't say anything more and walked quickly.
The man in the mandarin jacket trampled the pancake on the ground to pieces and kicked it far away.
Xiaopang lowered his head and closed his eyes.
He is a food cultivator. If he doesn't eat for one day, he may starve to death.
Yesterday he ate half a bowl of cold, rotten rice and survived.
I haven't eaten anything since today, I'm afraid I won't be able to endure it anymore.
It doesn’t matter if you can’t stand it any longer. If you starve to death, you will be liberated.
…
With Curie at home, Li Banfeng is waiting for the bronze lotus.
A person who has been hungry will never forget the person who gave him food.
Maybe some people will forget, but Li Banfeng will not.
Li Banfeng glanced at the record player: "Madam, I gave you food, you can't forget me!"
Chichi~
The record player sobbed twice and sang with a cry: "Hey, my husband, marry a man, marry a man, wear clothes and eat, the slave serves the husband diligently, and gives the slave a mouthful of food, does the husband still feel sorry for me? Not to mention the previous ones. The food is not fresh anymore.”
What she said made Li Banfeng feel ashamed.
I have to think of a way to buy something fresh for my wife.
But before buying groceries, you have to bring all your equipment.
If the dagger that drinks blood is eaten by the lotus, at least one rust pill can be made.
Although Li Banfeng already had a rust pill, he always felt at ease with one more pill.
Strange, why is the lotus alchemy so slow today?
PS: Half-open silver dollar, also known as No. 2 silver dollar, is generally half the value of No. 1 silver dollar (foreign money).
