Chapter 205 Earn Money Wherever You Go
The carriage traveled for three days and met refugees who had come through great hardships.

Hearing that they were going to Taoyuan City, Pan Yingying specially gave them a wooden plaque with the word "Taoyuan" engraved on it, and also gave them some dry food, and told them to look for Xiao Shan or Jiang Qinghe after arriving in Taoyuan City.

The refugees continued on their way with gratitude.

Pan Yingying and her group also entered Xuanzhou.

Xuanzhou is not prosperous, but it is not necessarily depressed either. Generally speaking, it is still okay.

Yu Chaosheng found a suitable place to set up camp and everyone stopped to rest.

Although everyone brought enough money with them, they had to travel to so many places, and Pan Yingying became eager to make money.

Even if it's not easy to make a lot of money along the way, it's always okay to make a little money, right?

She had a simple dinner and gathered everyone around the fire.

"I think that we are taking a relatively safer route this time. It would be a shame if we don't earn some money." Pan Yingying looked sad.

When the little girls heard this, they thought it was true.

Yu Qiuer thought about it and felt that selling things and eating delicious food were not in conflict, so she was the first to raise her hand.

"Aunt, are we still selling goods?"

Pan Yingying gave her a look that showed she was a teachable child. "Yes, don't you want to go home with a large sum of money in the future?"

She thought so anyway.

Yu Qiuer said without hesitation, "I want to!"

Yu Chuner nodded, she wanted to too.

I heard that it's not easy to live in the capital, and the prices must be high. When I go to consult those imperial doctors, I can't go empty-handed. I still have to prepare some more money.

Wang Xueer touched her chest, where her mother had hung a gold locket.

My mother loves gold so much, if she brings back a bar of gold, she will definitely be very happy.

The three girls all agreed, so there was no reason for others to disagree.

Especially Long Jiu and Long Shi, the couple have always been generous and have never had enough money.

The girl said that she would take them all the way to the capital, which would be just the right way to help them out of their urgent need.

Long Er took out a booklet from his bag and turned to the page about Xuanzhou.

"There is a Taoyuanzhai in every county in Xuanzhou. We definitely can't sell the same goods as in the shop, otherwise it will have an impact, right?"

Pan Yingying nodded. She had been thinking about this problem while eating just now, and finally bought a large bag of colorful glass beads and crystal threads in the system mall.

She patted Yu Chaosheng's arm, and Yu Chaosheng stood up and took down two large cloth bags from the carriage.

Pan Yingying opened it, and the colorful beads immediately attracted everyone's attention.

She smiled and announced loudly, "From today on, we will string beads whenever we have time."

Pan Yingying picked up an ice-blue bead and said, "This glass bead is a specialty of our Taoyuan City. You can string it into a bracelet or a necklace according to your own taste. Since we are going to the capital to open up sales this time, the unified price for a bracelet is ten taels of silver! The unified price for a necklace is twenty taels of silver!"

Yu Chaosheng: ...The corner of his mouth twitched. Glass beads like these are the cheapest. Five copper coins can buy thirty or fifty of them. He doesn't feel guilty about multiplying the price so much.

Long Er had seen many fine things in the palace, and so had Cheng Hai in the past, but neither of them had ever seen such clear and beautiful glass beads, so they did not think there was anything wrong with pricing a bracelet at ten taels, and even thought it was too cheap.

"Girl, if such a clear glass bead is priced at 50 taels, I think there will be many people scrambling to buy it..." Long Er really felt that the price was too low.

Pan Yingying shook her head and raised her hand to stop her from saying anything else. "Hey, you can't say that. Our main purpose is to increase sales. Just think of it as a benefit for everyone."

Long Er seemed to be thinking about something. Although what the girl said was strange, she could roughly understand what she meant.

Cheng Hai clapped his hands and went to the carriage to get a few new cloth bags. "Okay, let's get to work. We'll be in the county town in two days. The sooner we finish, the sooner we can earn money!"

He had seen a bicycle in a grocery store before, but it was too expensive, costing two hundred taels of silver. He was unwilling to part with it even if he had to bite his teeth off. When he returned from the capital this time, he was determined to buy one.

The three little girls quickly took a bag, stepped forward to put some beads from the big bag, took three rolls of crystal thread, and began to discuss how to string them.

Honglian and Lumei also joined in with their maids with great interest.

The servants were at a loss as they had never done this kind of work before and didn't quite trust their own aesthetic taste. They all turned their heads to look at the stone.

Shitou's scalp tingled under the gazes of his brothers, "Why are you all looking at me? Didn't you hear what Master Cheng said? Get to work!"

They stepped forward and divided the two bags of beads, but for a moment they didn't know how to start.

Orange turned his head to glance at Green, and followed the color she was wearing.

The servants suddenly realized what was going on, and simply took the beads and went over to the maids, calling them "sister" one by one, asking them to take care of them.

Qing rolled her eyes. During the exam, they were more ruthless than each other, but now that they need help, they call me "good sister". This is how men are, bah!
Yu Chaosheng did not participate in stringing the beads. He did not like doing such delicate work. He simply took out a pen and paper to write his new book.

Pan Yingying strung the beads slowly and leisurely. Batian lay beside her, watching her movements with his round eyes and his tiger head twisting back and forth.

She found it funny and rubbed its head. "Wait, mother will make a chain for you."

Batian let out a small “aww”, which meant he agreed.

Cheng Hai kept an eye on the time and called a halt at half past nine, asking everyone to take a rest. Even if they needed to earn money, they could not interfere with their journey.

There were mostly young people in the team, and they all practiced martial arts, so they were nimble and quick. After a few hours, they had made a lot of bracelets.

Seeing this, Pan Yingying bought two small flat wooden boxes from the system mall, and asked the people in charge of night watch to put the bracelets and necklaces in the boxes when they were free.

Compared to stringing beads, packing is obviously simpler. It didn't take long for Shitou and a few servants to pack everything and put it in the car.

Two days passed like this, and the small wooden boxes had accumulated to half the size of a carriage.

When they arrived at the first county town of Xuanzhou and checked into an inn, Pan Yingying asked Shitou to take people to find out where most of the wealthy families in the city lived. Then she personally took the maids and drove the carriage carrying the small wooden box there.

A wooden board with the words "Glass Blind Box" was placed on the table. Lumei took out a gong and struck it with a "dong" sound.

"Take a look, take a look! This blind glass box from the Northwest is only ten taels of silver. You won't lose anything if you buy it, and you won't be fooled! You'll earn money if you buy it!"

Lumei's voice was clear and loud. It was early in the morning and the ladies and masters had not yet gone out for social events. When she shouted, many ladies and masters sent people out to see what was going on.
