Start with an antique shop and become rich overnight

Chapter 46 Thick Raincoat
Zhao Wanyi once again stole the show at the banquet. Everyone was amazed at the beauty of the bracelet on her hand, which made it look like she was wearing the stars in the sky on her hand.

Everyone was asking where I bought it from. Remembering my mother's instructions, I just said that I asked someone to get it from a merchant in the Western Regions and that it cost a lot of silver.

In the past, she just wanted to keep it a secret so that no one would go to the shop to snatch those good things from her.

After listening to what my mother said, I realized that the shop was involved with fire-proof cloth. They could go there to buy things, but they must not be involved in any way.

At that time, an official of the provincial government kept one horse for himself, but he was accused of being disloyal and his entire family was exiled thousands of miles away.

Those who had been keeping an eye on the situation in the street where the shop was located also reported the news to the Prince's Palace.

Upon learning that the shop was open for business, Li Heng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his movements of picking up the pen to write became much lighter.

"Your Highness, you still have an injury on your shoulder." Zhong Jing looked worried and reminded him.

"It's okay. I've already used Miss Shen's medicine."

Li Heng looked at the solar lamp on the table and his eyes softened.

He has been walking on thin ice these days, and his every move has to be reported to the palace.

However, he was already accustomed to these things and had been living like this for years.

However, Miss Shen's shop was closed for a few days, and he felt uneasy, worried that he would not be able to see her again in the future.

She was able to move her entire shop from Yunzhou to the capital. If she really never came back, he would probably not be able to find her even if he searched all over Da Qi.

Sometimes, he also thought that if Miss Shen was not a master who had transcended the world, perhaps the distance between them would be smaller.

After receiving the two pieces of cloth, Shen You immediately went online to research how to preserve them.

She planned to keep one of her favorite ones for herself and sell the other one to a tailor shop when the time comes.

However, it will take some time. I just told people a few days ago that it was hard to buy, but suddenly it’s hard to say again.

If we could find someone to cooperate with in Da Qi, we could sell modern cosmetics and perfumes to them, and buy their tea.

It's a money-making job.

There is also fire-proof cloth. Ever since Shen You learned that this thing really existed, he has been thinking about how to get it.

This thing is really rare. It can be found in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. She is also curious whether it is modern asbestos cloth or some mysterious weaving technique.

Judging from the current situation of Da Qi, this matter is difficult to accomplish and even Li Heng cannot get it.

Why not wait until he becomes the emperor?
Shen You sighed, took her cell phone and some change, and went to the vegetable market.

Hairy crabs are out of season recently, but the takeout here is still not that fresh. Now that she has money, she wants to buy the best!

Shen You looked at the seafood and river fish on the stall. She wanted to eat every one of them, but she didn't know how to cook them in complicated ways.

Finally, I bought five hairy crabs, steamed clams and conchs, and mantis shrimp.
Gouty meal, but happy.

Afterwards, she went to a dim sum chain and bought several gift boxes to give to each other during the holidays.

Yesterday afternoon, Boss Huo personally delivered the mooncake gift box to the store, so I had to reciprocate.

Shen You just had a quick lunch, dinner was the highlight.

She was sitting at the door eating skewers when she heard the sound of wind chimes and the gate opened.

Li Heng was wearing a moon-white robe and a jade pendant with a warm texture hanging around his waist. He stood there, looking deeply at the person in front of him.

"Miss Shen, I haven't seen you for a few days. I hope you are well."

"I'm fine." Shen You nodded, thinking that the person he wanted to cooperate with was here.

Liu Zheng, who came with them, knew what to do and didn't say anything. He focused on looking at the rare items that had just been put on display in the store.

On the table over there, there is a glowing moon?! How did they do that?
"Are you here to see me for something, or to buy something?" Seeing that neither of them said what they wanted, Shen You asked first.

"I want to see if there is anything else in the shop that can be used." Li Heng said this, but his eyes fell on Shen You.

When business comes to her, Shen You will definitely recommend it with all her heart. She picked up a thickened raincoat from the carton next to her that was sold at a wholesale price of 20 yuan per piece online.

"How about this raincoat? It's lighter than a straw raincoat, and more durable than an oil coat."

Ancient armies could not afford good rain gear when they were on the march, so they just had to endure the storm.

If you catch a cold after being caught in the rain, your life or death will be in the hands of God.

Li Heng took the transparent raincoat and watched Shen You sprinkle half a cup of water on it, but it was not soaked at all.

Moreover, this thing is more durable than the tung oil umbrella. Liu Zheng pulled it in his hand but it didn't break. "Your Highness, this piece of clothing is really useful!"

It's cold and rainy at the northern border of Da Qi right now. Having this thing will undoubtedly improve the living conditions of the soldiers and enhance the strength of Da Qi.

More importantly, this thing is light and thin. It feels weightless when worn on the body and is easy to transport.

There are so many magical things in this store, there are surprises every time I come!

Li Heng was puzzled. "What material is this clothing made of? Why is it so watertight?"

The best oil coat made in the palace is not as waterproof as this raincoat.

Shen You thought for a moment and answered, "We have a material that is unique to our place, called plastic."

In fact, what she bought was polyvinyl alcohol, not the cheap disposable plastic raincoat, which only costs 2 yuan at wholesale. Selling it to Da Qi at a high price would be tantamount to destroying her own reputation.

"How much are the raincoats? How many do you have?"

Shen You thought for a moment, "The 200 pieces that just arrived yesterday, as usual, you can exchange them for some porcelain, or gold, silver, and jade, and I'll give you a piece of waterproof cloth that you can use for camping, or you can charge 10 taels of silver for each piece."

"Okay, I'll ask someone to prepare it right away." Li Heng agreed.

The person who went to do the work was naturally Liu Zheng. Just as he was about to say goodbye and leave, Shen You stopped him.

"You seemed to have said before that the Liu family has a shop in the capital?"

Liu Zheng did not dare to neglect it, "Yes, Manager Shen, do you need it?"

"I want to discuss a cooperation with you. I have some high-quality rouge and perfume here. I can sell them from your shop and give you 40% of the profits. You can also use some of my money to help me buy some tea and silk."

Liu Zheng glanced at Li Heng and saw that he had no intention of objecting, so he quickly agreed, "Okay!"

He was so happy about this good thing that he couldn't contain himself.

Not to mention 40%, even 20% would make money.

The rouge and perfume here sold by Shopkeeper Shen are the ones used by Miss Zhao, so they will definitely sell well!
When Liu Zheng went to move things, Shen You saw that Li Heng had no intention of leaving, so she poured him a cup of coffee with oat milk.

"Would you like to try this?"

Li Heng took it with a faint smile and took a sip. It tasted bitter but also a little sweet.

It's a bit weird, but not bad. It's just not as delicious as milk tea.

His eyes fell on the rabbit lamp placed on the antique display shelf behind the counter.

On the day of the temple fair, the streets of the capital were filled with vendors selling these lanterns.

Compared with the glass lamps used in Miss Shen’s shop, they are nothing.

But she carefully placed the ordinary rabbit lamp in such a good position.

Is it because of someone?
Thinking of this, Li Heng felt a little depressed.
