Chapter 683: Positioning
Xiaomei nodded and agreed: "Well, it's pretty good-looking, but it's too outrageous to ask for fifteen taels of silver." ”
There is no shortage of wood in this world, and the price of woodworking products is therefore low, generally speaking, an ordinary wardrobe in the people's homes is about dozens of dollars, and a little better is only about one or two silver, but the carved mahogany wardrobe just now actually costs fifteen taels of silver, which makes Xiaomei, who is still diligent and thrifty, a little unacceptable.
Da Mei smiled slightly: "To buy something, of course, you have to shop around, you can't buy one if you can't see one." Yan Yue and Da Mei nodded again and again, they are both from poor backgrounds, so they are naturally very cautious in spending money, especially when buying 'large items', they must remain calm and sober in order to spend the least amount of money to buy the best things.
The next journey is long, it is painful for Yuan Fang and Guan Xiaoyun, and it is indeed happy for Damei, the women who haven't come out to shop for a long time spread their wings and fly like birds that have regained their freedom, and every store has to go in to see, they have to ask about the price and then take the trouble to compare and discuss, one by one they are more excited than winning the jackpot.
Yuan Fang, who was completely reduced to a follower, fell behind, frowning and thinking about a puzzling question, why do women like shopping so much, but men are diametrically opposed?
Think about the only few times before shopping without feeling painful experience, dissect and analyze, trace back to the source, and finally get a conclusion, for men, the mood of shopping depends on the participation or accompaniment, if it is a participant, a buyer, with a certain enthusiasm, the mood will naturally be relatively better, on the contrary, if it is just an accompaniment, a bystander, then lose the basic motivation and positive attitude, and naturally will be easy to feel tired.
With this conclusion, Yuan Fang plans to adjust his mentality and actively participate in it, otherwise, he will not stop watching Damei's posture for most of the day, Yuan Fang doesn't want to go on like this, he is worried that he will die young because of physical and mental exhaustion.
stabbed Guan Xiaoyun, who also had a sad face next to him: "Xiaoyun, let's not just watch the excitement." ”
Guan Xiaoyun was weak and said, "Otherwise, what should I do?" If I had known that I wouldn't have come. ”
Yuan Fang encouraged and said: "Don't be so depressed, you will inevitably encounter adversity in your life, at that time, should you resign yourself to fate or fight up?" ”
Guan Xiaoyun scratched his head: "I want to fight, but how to fight?" ”
Yuan Fang thought for a while and said: "By the way, isn't the military hospital almost finished, but there are no office supplies yet, such as hospital beds, tables and chairs, just right, let's see if there is a suitable one by the way." ”
Guan Xiaoyun's eyes lit up, and he suddenly came to his senses, but then his eyes dimmed again: "Dean, the built-in demand of the military hospital has long been sent to the military factory in the form of an order, even if we are optimistic, it is useless, and we will not buy it." ”
Yuan Fang scratched his head and asked, "What's on the order?" ”
Guan Xiaoyun, as Yuan Fang's secretary, still understands these things, and after thinking about it, he said: "Gurneys, stretchers, surgical tools, uniforms, gowns, distillation pots, hanging bottles, needles, sutures, slides on the roof, absorbent cotton, and many more, I won't be able to remember them for a while, anyway, there is everything." ”
Yuan Fang asked tentatively: "Are there ordinary tables and chairs, curtains, sheets, toilets, stoves, cutlery, wardrobes, etc.?" ”
Guan Xiaoyun was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "That's not true, these things don't have any technical content, and the military factory won't waste time and effort to make these for us." ”
Yuan Fang clapped his hands: "That's it, let's just take a look at these things, and buy them if there is a suitable one." ”
Guan Xiaoyun was overjoyed: "Really? But Dean, we don't have any money. ”
Yuan Fang pursed his lips arrogantly: "Do we still need money to buy things?" ”
Guan Xiaoyun was stunned: "Do you want to repay the debt?" ”
Yuan Fang rolled his eyes wildly: "What do you mean I want to pay the bills, don't forget, the bureau hospital is a medical department under the imperial military department, and it is the cradle of training military doctors, although it is a way to pay for its own profits and losses, but the funds needed for the initial construction of the empire still have to come out, okay, don't be blindfolded, you just buy things, and I will naturally deal with the rest." ”
Guan Xiaoyun said in high spirits: "Okay, I'm doing this kind of thing." ”
After some conversation, Yuan Fang and Guan Xiaoyun changed their previous decadence, strode forward with their heads held high, and even surpassed Damei and the others, and went straight to the nearest carpentry shop.
Wan Chunya saw Yuan Fang and Guan Xiaoyun enter the store with their hands behind their backs like a big-tailed wolf, and said in surprise: "What's wrong with brother-in-law and Xiaoyun?" How does it seem like a different person? The girls glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison, but they succeeded in arousing their curiosity, leaving behind the guy who was talking about the goods and followed quickly.
Walking into the store, Da Mei was stunned to find that Yuan Fang was walking leisurely among the furniture, occasionally stopping, Guan Xiaoyun would ask the price of the goods next to him, and then give his own evaluation, whether it was expensive or cheap.
Xiaomei was puzzled and asked, "Brother Yuan, what is he going to do?" Do they want to buy furniture too? ”
Sang Rou thought for a while and said, "It's possible, isn't the third floor still empty, maybe my brother-in-law is planning to decorate the third floor and other empty rooms." ”
Ye Qingru explained: "But, does my brother-in-law have the money to buy things?" ”
Da Mei glanced at Yan Yue and said with a smile: "Don't forget, Yan Yue borrowed twenty taels of silver from him." It dawned on everyone.
Immediately, Ouyang Xianxue sympathized and said: "The things here are too expensive, brother-in-law's twenty taels of silver can't buy anything at all, you say, will my brother-in-law be hit?" ”
Yu Jingqiu lowered her voice and asked, "Do you all bring any silver?" Why don't we get some together for my brother-in-law? The women nodded in unison.
Da Mei objected and said: "I don't think it's necessary, I'm not reluctant to give up the silver, don't get me wrong, you see, his expression looks like he's been hit?" I think he must have some plan, so let's not get involved. ”
Everyone looked at it together, only to see Yuan Fang licking his stomach like a tyrant and swaying all over the house with high spirits, Guan Xiaoyun followed him like a human being and shouted five and six, how could there be the embarrassment of being shy in his pocket? It is clearly the domineering spirit of a local tyrant who spends money like dirt.
All the women felt that what Da Mei said made sense, and continued to browse the furniture in the shop, but their eyes glanced at Yuan Fang and Guan Xiaoyun from time to time to see what kind of nerves these two people were experiencing.
Yuan Fang walked to a desk placed in the corner, looked up and down for a while, Guan Xiaoyun saw this, and asked the guy who followed him: "How does this table sell?" ”
