 Chapter 419: Want to Make Money at the Black Market


As the customers stabilized, there weren't actually many people who needed Shu Yu's makeup services. In the past month, including tomorrow's engagement with the Deng family, she had only received three orders for image design.

On the other hand, there was a steady stream of customers for the ready-to-wear clothing in the shop.

Initially, the clothes were indeed designed by Shu Yu, but later, Ruan Shi and Ah Xiang started making more on their own and developed their own sense of touch and inspiration. They had enough business and quantity. With the suggestions from Da Ya and Fu Xiangdi, as well as the feedback from the customers in the shop, they gradually started making adjustments on their own without needing Shu Yu's confirmation.

Ruan Shi, who used to be timid, had become more cheerful after finding something she enjoyed. She was skillful in making clothes.

And the dolls made by Old Madam also sold very well. The scraps of cloth at home were not enough, so they had recently acquired a lot more.

So, although Shu Yu hadn't been to Yiren Pavilion for a long time, they still had a stable income.

Meng Yunzheng had also noticed this.

He looked at Zhao Xi and said, "Didn't you realize that miss Lu had already planned to let go early on? It's not just Yiren Pavilion; Lu Laosan and Yuan Shanchuan have also found stable jobs."

Zhao Xi blinked, blinked again, and then suddenly reacted after a moment. "Don't tell me Lu Girl already anticipated her own exile and made arrangements for each member of the Lu family?"

Thinking carefully, the Lu family now could indeed live well without miss Lu, but...

After listening to Zhao Xi's words, Meng Yunzheng turned his head to look at Shu Yu, his eyes filled with inquiry.

Shu Yu coughed lightly and said, "How can I have such foresight to predict my own fate? Even if I did, I would pretend not to know!"

"Just to be on the safe side, considering the numerous misdeeds of the Shu family, who knows if they might drag me down too."

Zhao Xi nodded, "Makes sense."

Meng Yunzheng, however, still looked at her skeptically.

Shu Yu immediately stood up. "I know everything I need to know now. It's getting late, so I'll head back."

Meng Yunzheng also stood up. He didn't pursue further questions and simply said, "If you need any help, feel free to come to me... us."

"Okay, I'm leaving then."

Shu Yu turned around briskly, but when she was almost at the door, she suddenly stopped and patted her forehead. "Oh, I almost forgot something."

She quickly returned in a few steps and asked Meng Yunzheng, "By the way, do you know how often the black market opens?"

"Every six months."

Shu Yu: "..." Every six months??

That was too long. It seemed her hopes of accumulating a large sum of money before her exile were shattered.

She would have to think of other ways to make money elsewhere.

Shu Yu sighed, and Meng Yunzheng asked her, "What's wrong? Do you still want to go to the black market?"

"Not really. I just have something I want to put up for auction at the black market. Hehe, you know, poor family, rich roads. The journey to the southwest is long, so I need some silver by my side."

Meng Yunzheng instinctively wanted to say that he had silver, but he hesitated for a moment and stopped himself. Instead, he said, "That's not a problem. You can take your item to the black market. If they assess it and find it acceptable, they will directly buy it. However, the price will be lower than what you might get at an auction."

Shu Yu's eyes lit up. "That's fine."

Zhao Xi was curious. "What item is it?"
