At this time, she missed the Mercedes-Benz G G that she had driven in her previous life. Its speed and comfort could meet her needs, and she could change counties in more than half an hour.
It took me more than two hours on my bicycle to arrive at Jinxian County, the next county. If I were to find a place to set up a stall to sell cloth, it would be extremely inefficient. It was already noon and it would take me three hours to get back. If I were to set up a stall and go home, I would get midnight.
These days, walking at night is not that safe.
She walked on the county road and found a hidden place to put the cloth in the space.
He only carried a small baggage with him, which was not conspicuous at all. He pushed his bicycle and looked at the shops on the roadside.
Both the photo studio and the mutton soup restaurant were located in low-rise bungalows. As she continued walking along the road, she saw a tailor shop.
Su Mingruan paused, then took the small bundle and knocked on the door of the tailor shop.
"Here comes the eldest sister. What kind of clothes do you want?" The tailor eldest sister looked at Su Mingruan and her eyes fell on the small bundle she was holding.
Su Mingruan spread out the bundle, revealing a cloth with bright colors but mildew spots.
"What kind of clothes can I use with this kind of cloth? Can it block mildew?"
"Let me take a look." The tailor stared at the moldy spot and rubbed it with soapy water: "80-90% of this thing can be washed away, and the rest can be blocked with a fake button pocket and made new. There’s no problem with the clothes.”
"That's good. I bought this cloth for more than five yuan." Su Mingruan pretended to pat his chest.
When he heard that it was more than five yuan, the tailor was immediately moved. His eyes flashed, and he took Su Mingruan's hand: "Sister, where did you buy this cloth? I can't buy any more. If you can buy a batch for me, Sister will make you a set of clothes for free."
"Free? Are you serious? My cousin got these cloths. He works in a cotton spinning factory. Some of the ones that are not well kept will be dealt with internally." Su Mingruan said it truthfully. If she directly came to sell it door-to-door. , and fell into the inferior category.
Now that the tailor sister was tempted by the price she mentioned, she took the initiative to inquire, so she was in a dominant position in the negotiation.
"How many can you get?" asked the tailor.
"It's no problem if it costs around two hundred yuan, but it's hard to say if it's more. If you want it, I'll go find my cousin and I can bring it over in two hours." Su Mingruan said.
The tailor calculated the account carefully, gritted his teeth, and asked for three hundred pieces of cloth.
Just based on the color and texture of the fabric, as long as it is made into clothes, others will be competing for more than ten yuan a piece, and you will earn a lot of money by selling them. Such an opportunity is rare!
The color and feel are really good, which is different from the popular indeed Liang in previous years. As soon as you touch the material in your hand, you can tell that it is breathable and comfortable.
"Then wait a minute, I'll go find my cousin." After Su Mingruan finished speaking, he walked around Jin County, tasted the local flatbread meat, and drank a bowl of tofu.
Then she walked out of the restaurant and walked around Jin County, passing several tailor shops. Every time she saw a tailor shop, she walked inside and ordered another batch of cloth using the same method.
After thinking that it was almost time, she took out a piece of cloth from the space and sent it to the first tailor shop she went to.
The tailor took the cloth and took out a thick wad of money. With reluctance in his eyes, he glanced directly behind Su Mingruan: "Where is your cousin? He can rest assured that you have so much money in your hand?"
"As I said, he knew exactly how much cloth he would bring out. If I didn't pay enough, he wouldn't be able to tell my parents.
He was in the mutton soup restaurant next door. I met an acquaintance there and was dragged to drink. I didn't come here because I was afraid of delaying the transaction. Su Mingruan said, pointing to the mutton soup restaurant not far away: "It's over there." "
The tailor looked sideways and saw several men eating wine inside.
He immediately retracted his head.
She wasn't happy to deal with a drunkard.
Su Mingruan took the money, left the tailor shop and went to other tailor shops to deliver goods. Those who dare to be self-employed these days are a little bit cunning, and it is a little difficult to deal with, but delivering cloth to a tailor shop is much more efficient than setting up a stall in the village. .
Su Mingruan stopped when he saw a stall selling pots, bowls and stoves on the road.
Staring at the sharp watermelon knife.
I'm so greedy.
She spent money to buy two knives, a small fruit knife and an oversized watermelon knife. After filling the space, she pedaled her bicycle back toward her home.
Passing by the entrance of the village, I vaguely saw a familiar figure.
She paused in her steps and stared at the person in front of her. Even though she was injured, she remained tall and straight, with a clean shaven head.
She just let her speak eloquently. The moment she saw this person, her whole body froze and she didn't know what to say.
He seemed to see her discomfort: "My name is Zhou Jibei. I work confidentially. I can't appear openly around you for the time being."
"Are you here just to introduce yourself?" she asked.
Zhou Jibei was silent for a moment: "Also, be responsible."
After saying that, he took out a wad of money from his body, totaling eight or nine hundred, and handed it directly to Su Mingruan: "I don't know what you need to buy for marriage, you can see for yourself, the money is not much But when my mission is over, there will be bonuses, and they will all be handed over to you."
Come and give me money once, and if you look closely, he looks extremely handsome. If you really get married, it won't be a loss. Su Mingruan is a little moved.
Especially when she reached out and touched her belly, she must have won the bid just like she did in her previous life! There are no pregnancy test strips these days, so you have to go to the hospital if you want to take a test. She has no plans to be single and have a baby.
If it's the person who gives money every day, she doesn't seem to be that resistant. It's just that we need to observe more about the person's temperament, and we can't decide too early.
"Are you busy?" Su Mingruan asked tentatively. She didn't know anything about him yet.
"Well, I have to go to Yangcheng for a mission. I plan to leave in five days. Before then, the marriage has been negotiated." He said with apology in his eyes.
"You don't need to notify your family about getting married?" Su Mingruan continued to ask.
"No, I can make the decision myself." Zhou Jibei said.
"We'll wait until you come back. Besides, I'm only 18 years old this year, so I can't get married." The marriage law has changed since the 1980s, and women have to be 20 years old to get a marriage certificate.
"You're not 20 years old?" Zhou Jibei felt as if he was struck by lightning and couldn't recover for a long time. His eyes inadvertently fell on Su Mingruan's excellent figure, and his mouth went dry thinking of that experience.
Su Mingruan felt the hot gaze and turned back to look at Zhou Jibei.
He met Su Mingruan's surprised eyes and turned away suddenly as if he was being burned. It was impolite to look directly at others like this.
"Well, you can't get married, you have this money..." Su Mingruan said, picking up a thick wad of money to return to Zhou Jibei.
Zhou Jibei frowned: "You can use it. I'm not irresponsible. I'll wait until you get the certificate when the time comes." After saying that, he heard the cry of a night owl, glanced at Su Mingruan, and said: "I will I'll come find you again." Then he left in a hurry.
Su Mingruan stared at his back with a smile in his eyes.
Judging from his life experience, this person has some problems, but it is probably not his own problem. There are usually two reasons for not telling the family about the marriage and getting the certificate. The family is too doting on the children, as long as the children are happy.
On the other hand, the situation at home is complicated, and talking about it will cause more problems.
She felt that Zhou Jibei's problem should be placed second.
