Chapter 100: run out of money

  Chapter 100 Money is spent

  After the discussion, Huo Xi went all the way to find the linen sellers in the south, and then the silk sellers.

  She still has to try to sell the silk in her hand. After tossing for so long and spending so much money to collect it, if it can't be sold, it will really be a waste of money.

  Yang Fu saw her hugging the silk sample tightly in her arms all the way, and he knew what was on her mind, and he also looked for a cloth merchant to buy silk for her along the way.

  Huo Xi led Ma Xiang and the others, first found a cloth merchant in the south, bargained with the other party for several rounds, and finally bought a whole ship of 2,000 linen from the other party at eighth of a piece.

   It cost one hundred and sixty taels.

  Pay ten taels of money and agree on delivery time.

  With a few people in a daze, they went to a merchant from the north to buy some candied pears and dates from the north, and a cart of leather goods. They also found a merchant from the south and ordered twenty stones of cane sugar.

  Yang Fu was relieved to see that she finally stopped. Pushing the cart with Ma Xiang and others, while watching her. I don't know how much Xi'er spent. I'm afraid the money in his purse will be spent.

  Huo Xi was also calculating the money in his purse.

  One carload of leather goods cost one hundred taels, twenty stones of cane sugar and candied pears and dates cost less than one hundred taels, plus the money to pay for linen, the banknotes and silver in the purse were exhausted. There are only a few golden beans and silver beans left.

   Others only saw her pay a deposit, the exact amount was unknown, but they also saw that she spent a lot.

   My heart is turbulent.

   "Huo Xi, where did you get the money? That sucrose is more expensive than meat, why did you buy it?"

   "It's not my money, I brought it for others."

   "Did you bring it for others?"

   "Yes. It's the first time we have been conscripted to transport bad grain, and this time we will be exempted from the commercial tax. Other merchants will ask my family to help bring some goods."

   "Really? Then I'll help people bring the goods."

   "You have to ask your mother if she is willing. Your mother also wants to buy some northern goods and go back to make money."

   "Then why don't you buy goods and go back to earn money?"

   "I don't have that much capital."

  Qian Xiaoxia choked, only thinking that this kid was dishonest.

  Turning his head to ask Yang Fu: "Is it really your product?"

  Yang Fu's voice raised high: "If my family had so much money, I would have bought fields and built a house in the morning!"

Too. Uncle and aunt of the Huo family have long wanted to go ashore to buy fields and build houses.

  Just like his mother, she dreamed of going ashore to buy fields, build a house to grow food, and marry his brother. When the woman's family heard that his family was floating on the water, and that they were lost and landed on the water to make a living, they didn't even want to see his brother.

  Hmph, what's wrong with his brother? Qian Xiaoxia was upset.

   Several people exchanged the fur goods they pushed the cart all the way. On the way, Huo Xi bought some food for everyone to share. Push the cart all the way back to the mooring.

  Several people helped her carry things onto the boat.

  The food on the ship has not been unloaded yet, but the location where the ship stops has moved a lot forward, and it is almost impossible to find it.

   Well placed. Seeing that the cabin was full of things, Huo Erhuai was a little worried: "How are you going to sleep tonight? You also bought 2,000 bolts of linen, how do you put them away?"

   "It's okay, dad. The other party has a warehouse at the dock. I told them that they will deliver the goods after we unload the food."

   "Is this going to be a problem? What if we take our deposit and don't deliver the goods?"

   "It's okay, dad. They brought a warehouse of goods. They have everything, and some of them are for sale. His boat is still at the dock, but he can't get away. They are serious businessmen, whoever sells is not selling."

   "That's good." Seeing that the two children had rules for doing things, Huo Erhuai felt relieved.

  Turning his head, he told Yang Fu: "You spend the night at Xiao Xia's side, and leave the cabin for Xi'er to sleep in."

  Yang Fu nodded.

   "Father, what about you?" Seeing that the cabin couldn't sleep anymore, Huo Xi looked at Huo Erhuai.

   "Father is fine. Daddy can handle the night on the grain bag. You can also sleep in the bow of our boat. Don't worry about daddy. Daddy still needs to keep watch at night. It's okay."

  Huo Xi looked around on the boat and nodded helplessly. Forgot about this, I bought too many things at once, and there was no room on the boat. Let dad deal with it for one night first, and then catch up on sleep during the day, she will help dad look after the food tomorrow.

   "Has the silk been sold?"

  Huo Xi and Yang Fu shook their heads. A little frustrated.

   "It's okay, we still have time, just search slowly. The cloth is so good, it's cheap for us to collect, if it doesn't work, we can lower the price, and we can always sell it." Huo Erhuai comforted the two children.

  Huo Xi didn't want him to worry, so she nodded and smiled at him, "Dad, guess what I bought today?"

   Huo Erhuai didn't take apart a cart of things, so he really didn't know.

   "Brother-in-law, you must not guess!"

   "Oh? What's there?" Huo Erhuai became interested.

   "Xi'er bought candied pears, jujubes, leather goods, and cane sugar. I bought a total of twenty shi! I also bought linen from the south. Brother-in-law, guess how many pieces you bought?"

   Twenty stones of cane sugar?

  Huo Erhuai opened his mouth wide.

  Baby and his mother wanted to drink a few sips of brown sugar water during the confinement period, and she was reluctant to buy it when the family was the most difficult. The kid bought twenty shi now? How many years does it take to drink a bowl that day?

   "You bought linen? Isn't there a lot over there?" Huo Erhuai was very puzzled.

   "Cheap. And good quality."

"How much?"

  Huo Xi compared to eight?

  "Eight points?" Can it be so cheap? The Gema they collected in the village paid back 1 cent and 5 cents.

  Huo Xi nodded: "The south is rich in ramie."

   "Then you can buy some of this. If you ship it back, you shouldn't worry about selling it."

  Yang Fu nodded, and asked again mysteriously, "Brother-in-law, guess how much Xi'er bought?"

"How many?"

  Yang Fu made a two.

two? Twenty should not be possible, buy it and wear it at home. If Xi'er wants to do business, she should not only buy this. "two hundred?"

  Yang Fu raised his mouth and shook his head.

   How much is that? Huo Erhuai's jaw is about to drop again, can't it be two thousand horses?

  Seeing that Huo Xi nodded and Yang Fu also nodded, Huo Erhuai felt his forehead buzzing and his veins throbbing.

   Two thousand horses? Although it is cheaper than Ge Ma in Jiangnan, what if it cannot be sold?

  I just felt a big breath of cool air in my mouth. hands trembling. This kid is really brave.

   No, how much money did this kid borrow from Guanshi Huo?

  Huo Xi understood what he meant, "It's gone, the silver will be used up after buying it. You have to sell the silk cloth to have money."

  Huo Erhuai became worried, and his brows were knit together.

   "Why don't you ask Uncle Yu to help watch our boat tomorrow, and Dad will go ashore with you to find cloth merchants?"

   "It's okay, dad. You are the owner of the ship. It's not good if you're not here. It's not good if the supervisor can't find you. Besides, I have to guard the things on our boat."

This is how to do? Silk cloth is cooperative with others, and Xi'er has spent all the borrowed money, and silk cloth has not been sold yet.

  How do you explain this to others?

Seeing that Huo Erhuai was in a hurry, Huo Xi hurriedly told Yang Fu: "Uncle, you can ask Uncle Yu and Brother Xiaoyu to see if they want linen. If so, let's give them some. Then ask Zou How many horses do Grandpa and Jixiang want?"

   "Hey, I'll go right away."

  Huo Erhuai was interrupted by Huo Xi, so he forgot to worry about getting angry.

   Only talk to her about what the **** officer came to order today.

   Morning~
