Chapter 157

Tang Mingrui did not hide his admiration at all, held his fists and said, "Sister-in-law Mo really has vision, dare to do business with foreigners, and can make such unique dolls."

He Zhiran smiled and answered very modestly.

"Life forced me, I had no choice."

After exchanging greetings for a few more sentences, Tang Mingrui finally spoke about his purpose.

“Sister-in-law Mo's dolls are special. It would be great if there were more varieties. After leaving here, I can sell them all the way to various cities, and the income must be considerable."

Making rabbit dolls was just a momentary intention for He Zhiran to help the Xie family and Fang family.

She did not expect Tang Mingrui to see unlimited business opportunities here.

From He Zhiran’s understanding of him, Tang Mingrui had a unique business mind. If he said the income was considerable, it must be true.

Thinking that a long-term business could be developed, not only could she earn some money for herself, but also the women of her family and the Fang and Xie families could earn money together. He Zhiran simply could not resist such a good thing.

"If I cooperate with Young Master Tang, I am naturally willing. It just so happens that I bought a lot of fabrics that can be used to make dolls from foreigners, and I can come up with several other doll styles when I go back."

He Zhiran also saw that using foreigners as an excuse was not questioned by Tang Mingrui, and decided to use this unfounded scapegoat again.

At the moment, Tang Mingrui was thinking about making the first pot of gold from the doll business, and indeed did not doubt the existence of foreigners.

Seeing He Zhiran say that she could come up with several other doll styles, he was already looking forward to it.

"In that case, I’ll wait for Sister-in-law Mo’s good news."

"There is no problem making dolls, but does Young Master Tang plan to sell them around here?"

He Zhiran felt that if Tang Mingrui was really as talented in business as recorded in the history books, it would be impossible for him to choose to sell dolls locally immediately.

The best way to make more money is to wait until the two hundred dolls in the embroidery room are sold out. People who didn't get to buy them will definitely feel regretful.

By then, Tang Mingrui could sell the dolls in his hands at high prices and limited quantities, which would definitely arouse customers' appetite. At the same time, with the addition of new styles of dolls, Tang Mingrui's business would definitely make a fortune.

Tang Mingrui's answer did not disappoint her.

"Sister-in-law Mo, if we still have to stay here for a long time, I plan to observe the customers' desire for dolls after the embroidery room dolls are sold out before making plans."

He Zhiran was very satisfied with such an answer.

"In that case, I won't rush to work here either. I will definitely make some exquisite dolls to maximize benefits."

"That’s great. I’ll wait for Sister-in-law Mo’s exquisite dolls."

The two talked a lot about the details of the doll business. Before they parted, they agreed that if they still could not leave here three days later, they would meet again at noon in this teahouse.

Mo Jiuye knew that He Zhiran would definitely take some plush fabrics back, so he arranged to hire an ox cart.

He Zhiran found a secluded place to prepare.

This time, she bought plush fabrics in various colors, as well as a large amount of cotton padding.

In addition, some of the food in her space also had to be taken away, as well as eggs and meat. The poultry and livestock raised in the space had not been harvested yet, so she bought some on Taobao Mall.

In addition, He Zhiran also carefully bought Mo Hanyue a book about traditional Chinese medicine in traditional Chinese characters.

She had just prepared the items to take back when Mo Jiuye came back with an ox cart.

This time He Zhiran bought a lot of plush fabrics, and a single ox cart simply couldn’t fit everything.

The driver went to call another companion, and the two ox carts carried the goods back to the camp.

When He Zhiran left with the finished dolls, the women felt regretful.

The reason was that He Zhiran had used up all the doll-making fabrics she bought from foreigners, and could no longer earn money so easily in the future.

Unexpectedly, He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye went out for a while and brought back two carts of fabrics.

This made the women extremely happy, and they all came forward to help unload.

The second sister-in-law kept asking around He Zhiran.

"Sister-in-law, did you and brother run into foreigners again?"

"Yeah, the foreigner was also unable to leave here. We went to look for them specially today, and happened to find that there were still such fabrics there, so I bought more." He Zhiran lied without revealing anything.

Mo Jiuye next to him did not forget to win favor for his wife: "It took Ranran a lot of effort to find that foreigner. It really wasn't easy to get these fabrics."

Sure enough, when the women heard that He Zhiran had taken great pains to find foreigners to buy fabrics, they came forward to express their gratitude.

Following Mo Jiuye's words, He Zhiran said a few words, just to let everyone know how hard it was to get the fabrics, so that they would make dolls more carefully.

The goods on the cars were moved aside by everyone, and He Zhiran took the opportunity to settle the wages for making one hundred and thirty-one dolls.

The money everyone got was more than last time. Especially the Fang and Xie families, the silver earned from making dolls should be enough to support them until the northwest.

The women of the two families, led by the matriarch, were about to kneel down to thank He Zhiran.

As a modern person, He Zhiran was not used to receiving such a big gift.

She stopped the actions of the two families together with the sisters-in-law, and at the same time, she also saw clearly that these two families were not white-eyed wolves. They had grateful hearts anyway.

After some polite words, He Zhiran got to the point.

She casually took some colored plush fabrics in her hand.

"You see, the fabrics I brought back this time are colorful. I plan to study several more doll styles."

Seeing the fabrics of various colors in He Zhiran’s hands, the women liked it very much.

Mo Hanyue got close to He Zhiran to take a closer look at those fabrics, and became more and more pleasantly surprised the more she looked.

She pointed to the brown fabric in He Zhiran's hand and said,

"Sister-in-law, I saw in Beijing that someone used this color fabric to make teddy bear dolls, which were very popular."

He Zhiran did intend to make plush teddy bears with this brown fabric.

She believed that the styles she provided would be countless times better than the ones Mo Hanyue saw in Beijing.

"Well, I’ll draw a pattern of a teddy bear doll for everyone later."

The women recognized that their vision was not as good as He Zhiran's, and they were used to listening to her arrangements all the way, so no one made any suggestions.

After making the future work clear, He Zhiran also gave Mo Hanyue the book explaining Chinese medicine, asking her to read it carefully and come to ask her if she didn’t understand.

Mo Hanyue happily hugged the book and went to flip through it.

There was still some time before lunch, and He Zhiran returned to the tent and flashed into the space.
