Hou Kun

Chapter 151 Phoebe
The big guy had sharp eyes, saw the carriage at the door, and pointed out, "Master, it's him, I recognize the carriage."

The little beggar got the copper coins and ran away, and Ge Ge led others into the barracks.

The big man grabbed the man's collar when he went up, and she grabbed the bench on the ground to greet him.The man was tall and had fleshy arms, he strangled the big guy by the neck as soon as he stretched out his hand, and without turning his head, he kicked the barracks back and fell backwards.A group of guys saw that the owner had suffered a loss, so they rushed forward and raised soldiers for half a month, just for this time.

During the noisy time, several people poured in from outside the door.A kind-hearted man came up to persuade him, understood the whole story, and knew that the old problem had happened again, so he acted as a peacemaker.

"Grandma, I understand. You see, Brother Dong is confused, but the bank note hasn't moved yet? He also did this stupid thing because his old lady was sick and needed medicine. Look at him Out of filial piety, let him return the bank note to you, will you hold your hands high and let him go?"

The barracks' eyes rolled wildly.

Just now with so many of them, they didn't take advantage of half of it. What the little beggar said was true, and this brother Dong dared to be in the camp.

She's smart, anyway, she's doing it for money, as long as she doesn't lose money.So he nodded and agreed, saying that he didn't care about what he said because of his old mother.

When the bank notes were brought back, she became more considerate.Ask the guy who just received the goods to go and take out the ten taels of silver.

When Dong Geer heard this, she began to babble, but she became calmer.Fei pulled the middleman and sat down in the broken courtyard.He said that his shopkeeper had something to do today, and he didn't understand, so he was a little more cautious, but when the money was brought back, everyone walked on both sides of the road.

The young man drives her carriage, and will be back soon.

Sure enough, the bank note was fake.The real bills have been exchanged for silver and left.

Gege in the barracks was furious. He spent his childhood in the alleys. He had seen shameless people, but he had never seen such shameless people.He couldn't beat him, but he couldn't help it, so he yelled to go to court.

The guy named Dong Geer was not afraid of fighting, and he was scared when he heard that he was going to court.He has an official status, and once he goes to court, he will lose his serious job, and his family will be ruined.

The barracks Ge Ge was even more reluctant when he heard that, many heads were protruding from the partition wall, Dong Geer hurriedly replied, begging her to keep her voice down.

It turned out that this brother Dong was working in the county prince's mansion, and he usually guarded a courtyard or something.I haven't gotten to be a serious guard yet, but it's coming soon.

"That money has already bought medicine for me. If you don't believe it, you can go to my back room and see that it has already been boiled. You see, I don't have any money for the time being, but our county prince has been waiting for me recently. If you see me, you will be promoted soon. Grandma let me go, and I will pay you back when I get promoted to Geshha." Seeing that the relationship could not be reached, Brother Dong knew that he had encountered a hob meat. But the situation is stronger than people, so I have to bow my head.

The barracks princess thinks who knows if your county king wants to see you or not, you just said it with your mouth, it's strange to believe you!
She refused to let go, and there was really no money to pay back. In the end, the middleman made a guarantee, and Dong Geer signed an IOU, agreeing to pay two percent of the interest.After asking which county king it was, and where the county king's mansion was going, Ge Ge left the barracks with satisfaction and left the dejected Dong Ge'er and left.

After a lot of tossing, it was already lunch time when we returned to Nanluoguxiang. The shopkeeper Ma had been back for a long time.

The boss and the shopkeeper did not eat with the buddies, they sat down in a small flower hall in the backyard.Hearing the ins and outs of the barracks Gege, shopkeeper Ma first complimented, "The owner is really not an ordinary person. When he opens a store, he welcomes customers from all over the world. He can meet anyone. If it wasn't for the owner today, the money would have been wasted."

The barracks princess was naturally proud of hearing this, and the more they chatted, the more speculative they became.The barracks Gege heard from the shopkeeper of the horse that especially the pawn shop, without a pair of bright eyes, would really lose everything, and he was also a little scared.

The horse shopkeeper was careful, and took the IOU again.Asked if it was from the Prince Zhijun's mansion, he laughed and said, "This Prince Zhijun is really an outlier. He doesn't keep any money in his hands, but the dogs, birds, and grasshoppers in the mansion are really expensive. Every year, he will go to the clan mansion to fight famine several times."

After hearing this, Gege from the barracks asked, "Is that him?" One of her two younger brothers was beheaded, and the other was exiled to that cold place.

But I heard that the case of Zhijun Wang was just a name, and all my bad luck was thanks to the noble concubine.The imperial concubine is pregnant, the emperor loves the house and Wu, and the two younger brothers bumped into each other, but she doesn't have to complain.

Now that Qiye still has this problem, she just took it as a joke, "Anyway, the emperor's family has money, and he rewarded him whenever he was happy, but us people, living a really pitiful life." The shopkeeper Ma saw that she was about to get angry , Picking up a few nice coaxing words, and then talking about the Great Buddha Temple.

The barracks Gege listened to him for a long time, and he didn't have much to do with the pawn shop, so he didn't talk much.

Shopkeeper Ma finally sighed, "Speaking of which, the biggest business of the Great Buddha Temple this time is the good wood needed for the construction of the Daxiong Hall."

If you raise more money, you have to do things beautifully.But the world is really so strange, you can't buy ready-made good wood even if you have money.

"The most important thing in building the hall, and the most magnificent thing is to support the pillars of the hall. Ordinary wood is not so thick, and it is not so hard, so if anyone wants ready-made nanmu now, it will be a big deal. "

But nanmu is all picked now.First of all, there are regulations on this thing, and it can only be used in the palace and the princes' mansions.Secondly, for such an expensive item, no one is hoarding it with money.

The Great Buddha Temple can use nanmu because it bears the name of a royal temple. "I can't afford to wait. If I want to pick nanmu now and then transport it from Yunnan, it will take a year or two." Shopkeeper Ma sighed, rubbing his hands.

"Then what else?" asked the barracks.

"What's the matter, it's really impossible to use pine wood, so there won't be much profit to be made." He only cares about profit.In fact, compared with nanmu, pine wood is much worse in style.

"How much difference can it make?"

"If you use nanmu, the two main halls and several small halls add up to one hundred thousand silver. If you use pine wood, you won't be able to use ten thousand silver."

The barracks Gege sneered, no matter how big the business is, what does it have to do with her pawn shop?
At night, she dreamed of nanmu trees all over the mountain. She saw and sawed vigorously, but saw only one crack in one night.The shopkeeper Ma stood dry and smiled and didn't help her. After waking up, he sighed, Nanmu is really hard.

When the men saw her, they asked, "Boss, what did you dream about last night? Why do you want to chop wood?"

The barracks stared and asked, "Why did you all hear it?" The big guy nodded.

The barracks Gege said in a moody way, "Do you know Nanmu? If you can buy it, I will let you be the shopkeeper."

That guy named Dong Geer couldn't sleep last night, and if Qi Ye didn't mention promotion, he wouldn't pay the high interest this month, so what would he have to pay for the high interest!If not, you have to go to the pawnshop to discuss with that beautiful owner.

Unexpectedly, no one paid any attention to him when he went, the boy brought him a cup of tea and went to stand at the counter, looking at him coldly.

For his fake bracelet, he was fined two months of silver by his boss.
