Sturdy Countryside: Lord, Please Blow The Lamp

A shop is not an acre of land in the countryside. You can buy it with just a year or two of money. That's a lot of money.

It is estimated that even if she had been doing embroidery for more than ten years, she would not be able to earn so much money to open a shop.

"You better think about it. Just following me is useless. Just like Xia Ziyin, although she did something wrong, in some respects, she wanted to support the sky by herself. This kind of thinking, It’s still advisable.”

Xia Beibei said confidently.

"You are still young, and I can't say anything to you, but there is always a future. Although the Dream Kingdom regards the husband as the top priority, if a woman does not have her own abilities and career, she will be looked down upon by others."

She hopes that the people around her are not weak.

What's more, Xia Xiaoju has this ability, and she can also help a little.

"If you are short of money, you can ask me...to borrow it."

"Borrow?" Xia Xiaoju rolled her eyes, speechless.

"Well, I have never been in favor of getting something for nothing. Just like back then, even if Xia Ziyin tried every means to get more from me, I didn't give it to her. That's because if I gave it to her, it would encourage her laziness."

After getting something for nothing once, you will think about it a second time or a third time.

Isn’t that where the idiom “waiting for rabbits” comes from?

"Sister Jiuniang, actually I want to... make money on my own. Even if the borrowed money is yours, I don't think it's real." Xia Xiaoju said in a low voice.

Even if she wants to impress others, she has to rely on herself step by step and cannot rely on others, not even Sister Jiuniang, whom she regards as a sister.

"Looking at this, I want to go to the street and ask if this is worth the money."

"Then let's go ask." Xia Beibei said with a knowing smile.

Hey, in fact, she is not as good as Xia Xiaoju. I think back then, she took advantage of the situation and robbed the seriously injured Dongfang Yu just for her own belly.

Does that count as getting something for nothing?

No, no, she saved someone's life, which is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Can Dongfang Yu still care about this little money?

How much courage does it take to save people? You have to get some money to cope with the panic.

…

"Shaobing, I sell sesame cakes."

"Sister Jiuniang, let's go buy sesame cakes to eat. I'll treat you." Grabbing Xia Beibei's hand, Xia Xiaoju pulled her and rushed to the sesame cake stall not far away.

Feng Xing'er: "..."

A sesame seed cake, is it delicious cooked by a lady?

Sure enough, it had been a long time since she came out. Xiaoju was really excited. Everything she saw felt like the best.

However, she herself felt that everything on the street was new.

"Uncle, here are three sesame seed cakes. I have meat." Xia Xiaoju excitedly stretched out three fingers to the old man selling sesame seed cakes.

After a while, the three sesame cakes were already in her hands. As she said, the money she paid was only six copper coins.

"Xing'er, eat it, I'm very generous today." Xia Xiaoju patted her chest after passing a sesame seed cake in front of Feng Xing'er.

Hearing this, Feng Xing'er rolled her eyes angrily, "That's right, next time I come out, I'll sell my embroidery too, and then I'll treat you to sesame cakes."

She had never thought that this double-sided embroidery could be so easy to sell. Although her embroidery was not as good as Xia Xiaoju's, it could still be sold for a few dollars, right?

"Okay, okay." Xia Xiaoju responded naturally.

It’s not that she is stingy, just like Sister Jiuniang said, she feels that she is really capable, but if she opens an embroidery shop, as long as this double-sided embroidery is so easy to sell, each piece can be sold for one or two silver dollars. ah.

"Xiaoju, I think you are extremely happy, right?" Xia Beibei tapped her forehead.

Xia Xiaoju's embroidery is indeed sold at a high price in Thousand Layers Realm, because double-sided embroidery is rare and almost non-existent.

However, she thought that if Xiaoju was sold to an embroidery shop in Tucheng, the price would be different.

"Let's go and look elsewhere. Maybe we can sell it at a higher price." She took the sesame seed cake and took a bite.

"Hey, this cake...is hard enough!"

It almost hit her teeth, it was really powerful.

"Sister Jiuniang, did you just ask me to keep one thing just so that I could ask you questions elsewhere?" Xia Xiaoju heard her words and asked.

She still had one on her body. The landlady insisted on selling it to her, but Xia Beibei refused, so she didn't sell it.

"You silly girl, you have to shop around when buying something. This thing is for sale, and it is a rare thing. Of course, you have to pay more than four or five stores." Xia Beibei reminded her.

Double-sided embroidery is hard to find, so you have to ask several stores to know the price.

"Yeah, I really shouldn't have sold it all at once." Xia Xiaoju patted her head before she remembered.

Sister Jiuniang didn't remind her just now. If she had thought of it earlier, she wouldn't have sold it.

However, just sell it. Anyway, the money is enough to last her a long time.

"Don't you still have to buy embroidery thread? Find the next embroidery shop and buy it again." Xia Beibei said.

"Okay." Xia Xiaoju responded.

…

"Master, is she that woman?" In a corner, several wretched men looked at Xia Beibei and the others.

"Yes, it's them. Have you seen the man in purple clothes? As long as you put her to sleep and beat her until she is half dead, these twenty taels of silver will be yours." A man wearing a brocade robe said, He said to a few people around him.

He held two dozen taels of silver in his hand, and his eyes were dazzled when he looked at several wretched men.

Twenty taels, although not a lot, is enough for them to eat and drink for a while. Moreover, it is such a good deal to have sex with such a beautiful girl.

"Brother, I think that little girl in purple clothes is not yet an adult, right?" A man stared at Xia Beibei and the others with squinted eyes, and asked in confusion.

"What? Underage?" The leader looked at the man in brocade robes with a stern expression.

If you're underage, that's not possible. The laws of the wilderness are too strict. If you are caught desecrating an underage girl, you will be sentenced to death.

He didn't want to lose his head just for twenty taels of silver. This was not worth it.

"Don't worry, they have already grown up in a few years. Why would I let you do something that you are not sure about?" said the man in the brocade robe who took the lead.

It didn't matter whether they were adults or not, he just did what his wife asked him to do. He didn't care about the life and death of the people around him.
