Chapter 166 Belonging to Sri Lanka
Eight Immortals Table, Huanghuali Top Box Cabinet, Huanghuali Vertical Cabinet, Huanghuali Bookcase, a pair of Nanmu Treasure Boxes, Huanghuali Three-horizontal Cabinet, and four pairs of camphorwood boxes.
There were several pairs of nanmu boxes, four clothes hangers, four basin racks, four armchairs, four round chairs, four stools, and four embroidered cushions.
A pair of huanghuali kang tables inlaid with mother-of-pearl and a pair of huanghuali money cabinets inlaid with mother-of-pearl.
The large furniture is all made of huanghuali wood, and some are made of nanmu wood. It is indeed very complete.
Moreover, the specifications of furniture such as step-out beds and top-box cabinets have been enlarged, with novel patterns, and they look very elegant.
Tutu's eyes sparkled. "What a fine piece! I don't know if it's an illusion, but it feels better than the furniture in your trousseau."
Qiwu nodded quietly, then turned to discuss the price with the shopkeeper.
The housekeeper who came to return the furniture was very happy to get back 20% of the money. After all, it was custom-made furniture, so it was good enough to get some of it back.
Qiwu also bought this set of furniture at a 30% discount and instructed the people from Xingheshun to deliver the finished furniture to the backyard of Qiwu's silver shop.
The four armchairs that have not been finished will be delivered separately after they are finished.
Xing Heshun really wanted to make this deal happen, so all the carpenters worked overtime and the remaining armchairs would be finished and delivered in a few days.
Xing'er led the group to the silver shop warehouse first. When Qiwu arrived, Xing'er went out to watch over him. Qiwu was tying beads one by one while chatting.
By the way, I sorted out all the embroidered jewelry I had made before and sent them to Tutu,
The empty storage building of Tutu was filled up again.
Tutu was full of excitement. She chatted with Qiwu while cleaning up. Qiwu also looked at Tutu's inventory and explained it to her.
"This set of furniture you mentioned earlier looks better than the furniture in my dowry.
In fact, judging from the wood, this set of furniture is basically made of huanghuali wood, with a consistent overall style and novel patterns. It is the crabapple flower pattern that has been popular in recent years, although the price is not cheap.
But the overall value of the wood is not as expensive as my dowry, but my dowry is pieced together and the patterns are inconsistent.
Although it doesn’t look damaged, it’s all old furniture, and the value of the wood is what’s holding it up.”
Tutu thought about it and said, "Then isn't it a waste of money for you to send me new furniture? After all, I don't have any new or old styles here.
The price is mainly supported by the wood, why don’t you keep some for yourself? You like new ones, I like old ones.”
Qi Wu wrinkled his nose, "Forget it this time. This batch of furniture is all enlarged, I don't like it very much. Besides, it would be a waste to put any good things in the mansion."
Tutu is online, and Qiwu can also see the page she is looking at on her computer.
"If you buy more, our silver shop can also make dowry tinware sets to sell."
A pound of tin ingot costs more than 100 yuan, so Tutu directly found a manufacturer with a storefront in Shanghai and ordered a ton, spending more than 200,000 yuan.
In just two hours, the tin ingots were delivered to Tutu's warehouse.
The driver gave her a phone number and told her that if she needed it in the future, she could just call and he would deliver it immediately.
They were transported in tents. Qiwu was a little surprised. These tents were specially made by Tutu and the doors and windows were specially painted. They looked very realistic.
The main thing is that every time we use a tent to transmit things, the system is very reluctant, so Tutu specially made this kind of tent that looks like a small house to fool the system, but at least the attitude should be there.
Tutu sent the new furniture to the warehouse and asked the store manager to bring someone to pick it up.
By the way, the imperial green jewelry and cat's eye green jewelry that were picked out were also picked out. Together with these, the collection of the old lady of the Marquis's Mansion that was picked out last time, we can make a special sale.
Tutu packed all the selected jewelry into wooden boxes and placed them in two large wooden boxes. He then went to the store with the escort vehicle.
The furniture that was moved into the store last time has been cleared out again. It seems that the number of customers brought by parents of children is really large recently.
Arrange the store manager to contact the photographer to take pictures of the items and make them into an album, and then send the album to all high-quality customers.
The store manager started to work skillfully, and Tutu went back to lying down.
The connection with Qiwu is still open. Qiwu is already in the teahouse, drinking tea and eating snacks.
"When you're done cleaning up, come and try some of the snacks in this teahouse."
Qiwu and Tutu have become big eaters since they started practicing. After just eating, they would feel hungry again after strolling for an hour or two.
Xing'er had already ordered more than a dozen famous snacks and fruits from the teahouse.
Yushuang bean cakes, chestnut cakes, eyebrow cakes, jade belt cakes, crabapple cakes, osmanthus yogurt, ginkgo sugar cakes, fermented bean curd and phoenix cakes, Wenxi cakes, pea yellow cakes, Dingsheng cakes, crab shell yellow cakes, and some crispy mountains with dried fruits.
Xing'er waved her hand again, and three food boxes came out, all of which were nanmu food boxes with mother-of-pearl inlay.
Tutu was curious, "What's in Xing'er's storage ring? How can she take out the food box anytime and anywhere?"
Qi Wu smiled and said, "Xing Er started preparing the things she would need for playing yesterday. She happily prepared for the entire afternoon. Whenever she came across something she needed, she got very excited."
Sure enough, Xing'er was already smiling and started to leave only two pieces of dessert on each plate, and carefully arranged the rest of the desserts into food boxes, which she then hung with beads.
Tutu really liked some of the dim sum. She had actually eaten most of these dim sum before, but she felt that they were not as delicious as the ones from Qiwu. There was always an indescribable difference. It might be due to the difference in craftsmanship and raw materials.
Tutu particularly likes these three snacks: ginkgo candied crisps, fermented southern milk cakes, and crab shell yellow.
While drinking tea and eating snacks, Tutu suddenly looked at the teacup in his hand, "Hey? Do you think the snacks tasted especially good because the tea I drank was good?"
Qiwu took a sip of tea, "Tuanhuang is not a particularly good tea, it's just above the mid-range. Xing'er, order a few more pots of top-ranked tea."
Xing'er ordered five pots of tea and took out the jade cup she brought with her and passed it to Tutu. Xing'er was amazing, she even brought the jade cup.
Tutu drank the tea one by one, and felt the fragrance lingering on her lips and teeth. She didn't understand tea, but she was a cultivator, and her five senses were very sharp. She could detect that the taste of the tea was much better than the first cup of above average.
Seeing that Tutu liked it, Qiwu asked Xing'er to ask around. The teahouse also sold tea leaves, so he packed a portion of the top ten teas for Tutu.
The teahouse is very considerate and clearly states the brewing time and water temperature for each type of tea.
Qiwu taught Tutu how to make tea, but since he was just drinking it himself, there was no need to make tea.
Tutu also asked Qiwu to find a kind of high-quality and easy-to-brew tea and give it to her. She planned to put it in the store and use it to make tea for customers.
Qiwu arranged for Xing'er to go directly to the tea shop to buy it. "For small quantities, you can buy some at the teahouse. For large quantities, it's still more cost-effective to buy from the tea shop. But since you have incense burning in your shop, it's best to choose a tea that doesn't conflict with the fragrance."
Tutu hadn't thought about it in such detail. After walking around with Qiwu for a day, she felt that Qiwu was in a much better mood.
Qiwu drank tea while listening to the storyteller telling stories in the teahouse.
"It is said that in ancient legends, there was a sacred mountain covered with sacred flowers and sacred trees.
There is a mythical beast on the mountain named Shusi.
It is a kind of animal that looks like a horse and lives in the mountains, but has feet like humans.
Eating its meat can cure carbuncle. Once taken, the pain will disappear immediately and the body will be as light as a swallow.
Its feet are huge and nimble, making it difficult to catch, but it likes filial sons. When it sees a truly filial person, it will take the initiative to bite through the flesh and blood to give to the filial son. "
Tutu frowned as he listened to the storyteller telling a story.
"It doesn't feel right, this story doesn't sound right.
Taking the initiative to bite off its flesh and blood to feed people, no matter how divine a beast is, it would not have such awareness. Only the Buddha would sacrifice himself to feed the tiger. "
