Chapter 184: Surprising Da Ya
Da Ya didn't know how to remain calm. Initially, she had envisioned a pretty good outcome. After opening the shop, as long as they sold two pieces of clothing each day, earning around one or two hundred wen per item, they would make three to four hundred wen daily. In Da Ya's mind, that was already quite high. In about a month, they would accumulate around ten taels of silver. After subtracting rent, labor costs, and various miscellaneous expenses, they would be able to save at least five taels of silver each month. That would amount to fifty to sixty taels in a year. Just thinking about it was exhilarating. But now... Ah Yu had earned half a year's worth of money in less than a day, no, less than half a day. Da Ya's heart was about to burst. It turned out her imagination was truly impoverished. Seeing her reaction, Shu Yu stuffed all the silver notes into Da Ya's hands and said, "Sis, feel it now. Once you get used to it, it'll be fine." Da Ya almost threw the silver notes away, but luckily she reacted quickly and tightly held them in her palms. She let out a long breath and said, "Ah Yu, don't scare me." "I didn't scare you. Didn't you hear Miss Ding say before that earning thirty taels in a month is considered difficult? Sis, we common folks indeed don't have much money. Earning a single wen is already an achievement. But truly making a business thrive, going out for a meal can cost hundreds of taels." Da Ya paused. So they must be dining on dragon liver and phoenix gall? Shu Yu smiled and said, setting aside other matters, "Just look at the lavish life we lead in the Shu family on ordinary days. Although they often withhold your monthly allowance, they are generous in other aspects." After Da Ya had digested everything for a while, Shu Yu began discussing the main topic, "Sis, did you notice anything while watching me do Miss Ding's makeup just now?" Da Ya was momentarily stunned. After thinking for a moment, she hesitantly said, "I noticed that you only changed Miss Ding's eyebrows and eyes, but her overall appearance became completely different. Also, Miss Ding's nose was somewhat flat, but after you finished, her nose looked much higher. Hmm, the sides of her face also have more depth now." Shu Yu was somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected Da Ya to notice all these details so attentively. The reason she had brought Da Ya along was precisely for this. She wanted to utilize the two months to provide Da Ya with intensive training. After all, someone had to manage the shop when she wasn't around. She hadn't anticipated that Da Ya would give her such a pleasant surprise, displaying even more talent than she had imagined. Since that was the case, she wouldn't hold back anymore. Seeing Shu Yu's silence, Da Ya felt a sense of uneasiness in her heart. "Did I say something wrong?" "No, Sis, everything you said was correct. When we return, I will teach you makeup." Da Ya's eyes brightened. "I... I will definitely learn well." Then she would be able to earn a lot of money like Ah Yu. Of course, she didn't dare to expect sixty taels a day. Half of that would be enough. As they spoke, the mule cart stopped in front of the ready-to-wear shop. In the shop, Da Hu and San Ya heard a sound and quickly ran out. To Shu Yu's surprise, Da Hu was actually holding Zhao Cai in his arms? He decided to play with the cat after not seeing him for half a day? The old lady also came out to welcome them. "Oh, you finally came back. We were so worried." It was only after Shu Yu left that she learned that the maid who came over was a servant from the Ding family. And Master Ding from the Ding family has been kept in the county government office and not allowed to go back. The old lady wanted to ask about the situation in the Ding family but was pulled by Da Ya to go inside the shop. "Grandma, let me show you something." (End of this chapter)
