Chapter 32 Selling Pearls

After a few people were settled down, Shopkeeper Yu asked the boy to bring some bowls of tea. After everything was done, he asked:
"I heard from Brother Eleven that Brother Yan Qing has pearls to sell?"

Su Yanqing nodded, pointing at Jinli with a pointed finger, "Ask her."

Shopkeeper Yu was shocked again, it's her again? !

Jin Li directly took out a wooden box from his bosom, which contained 28 pearls, each round and plump.

Shopkeeper Yu stood up abruptly, "This!"

Pearls of such fine color are not common, let alone so many!
In recent years, for unknown reasons, there are few good-quality pearls in river mussels, which has led to the situation that pearls are priced but not marketed in the jewelry industry.

If the 28 pearls in Jin Li's hands were planned carefully, the price they could sell for would be sky-high.

Shopkeeper Yu had already considered it in just a few moments, he paused, and said seriously:

"Miss Jinli, can you trust Yu?"

Jin Li froze for a moment, why is this man so serious all of a sudden?
But he is a member of Boss Su, so he can naturally trust his ability.

So Jinli nodded, "Of course I can trust you."

Shopkeeper Yu's face was also loose.You know, with so many top-quality pearls produced by him, his network will undoubtedly expand even more.

Thinking of this, a more sincere smile appeared on Shopkeeper Yu's face, "I will definitely not disappoint Miss Jinli!"

Jin Li took a sip of tea and frowned.Regardless of past life or present, she still doesn't like the bitter taste of tea.

On the contrary, Su Yanqing sat at the main seat, sipping tea leisurely.

Jinli thought of the breakfast stand that was being prepared, and asked casually:
"Does shopkeeper Yu know where the stalls are cheaper?"

Shopkeeper Yu is well-known in the town, not only because he is the shopkeeper of Huichuntang, but also because shopkeeper Yu is kind-hearted, and he will open free free clinics in Huichuntang every month.

He knew the town well.

Shopkeeper Yu thought for a while, and mentioned a stall in the Wa Lane on the east side of the town.

The stall owner is renting out the stall recently, saying that he is going to move to another place.

As soon as Jinli heard that he was interested, he and shopkeeper Yu got together to discuss.

Su Yanqing squinted at the two excitedly, and took another sip of tea.

"Chiba."

Chi Bo was sitting on the sidelines looking at this side and that side, when he was called out suddenly, he was startled, and almost threw the tea bowl in his hand.

"Hey! Huai Jin?"

"How is the arrangement of fine salt?" Su Yanqing put the tea aside and asked slowly.

In his memory, he just handed over this matter to Chi Bo two days ago.

When this matter was mentioned, Chi Bai's anger rose immediately, and he spat:
"Bah! Those old things in Shangjing probably negotiated with each other, and everyone kept the price very low."

"Everyone with a money-greedy face is ashamed to say that he is a parent official, thinking of the people of the world!"

Refined salt purification is a big project. Their original plan was to open a workshop, and after the purification tools were ready, they would concentrate on producing fine salt.

But setting up such a workshop requires a lot of money, and they alone can't eat this big cake, so they plan to divide the workshop into several shares and sell them to officials and wealthy businessmen, so as to prevent one of them from going back on their word.

They had already reached an agreement on the wealthy merchant's side, but the officials on the other side of the capital lowered the price by coincidence. It seemed that it was a good deal, and the royal family of Daxing might also be involved.

Su Yanqing tapped the table with his long and handsome fingers, and after a while, he said four words:
"Jingxi Jin's family."

Chi Bo didn't understand.Isn't the Jin family in the silk business?Have such a relationship with them?
What's more, the geographical location of Jingxi is very embarrassing. It is located in the center of Daxing, Beiyan and barbarians. The Jingxi Marquis Mansion is not under the jurisdiction of any party, and it is independent.

It is said that the first Marquis of Jingxi had an agreement with the royal families of the three parties at that time.But it's just a legend, no one knows the truth.

Now that Huai Jin mentions the Jin family, this is...

Chi Bo showed a suddenly realized expression, he understood!

Since you went to Beijing to set up a trap for them, they will not cooperate with Shangjing.On the contrary, Jingxi's forces were chosen, and none of the other three parties dared to take action lightly.

Wonderful!Wonderful!

"Hahaha! Huaijin, you are the one who is bad!"

As he said that, Chi Bo was about to reach out and pat Su Yanqing on the shoulder.

Su Yan turned his head to look at him quickly, and forced Chi Bai to withdraw his hand and clap instead.

With lingering fear in his heart, Chi Bai peeked at Su Yanqing.

Be good, after Huai Jin's eyes healed, his whole person changed!very scary!

On the other hand, Jinli was going to go to the stall in the east of the town with shopkeeper Yu to have a look. If possible, Jinli wanted to make a decision as soon as possible.

The Chinese New Year will be one month away, and the market has a lot of traffic this month, which can nearly double the money.

The two left Huichun Hall together.

Su Yanqing watched their backs and did not move.

The booth that shopkeeper Yu mentioned was not too far away. When Jin Li and the others arrived, a strong man was sitting on the booth with a sad face.

Jin Li asked with his eyes:
He is the stall owner?
Shopkeeper Yu nodded:
it's him.

Jin Li stepped forward: "Uncle, is your booth for rent?"

The strong man raised his head and glanced at Jinli, saw that it was a little girl, and pushed her away impatiently:
"Go, go, go, little girl, go and play, the stall is not for rent but for sale!"

Jin Li raised her eyebrows, hey, there is an unexpected harvest.

She thought she could only rent stalls here, but she didn't expect to be able to buy them.

Jin Li didn't care about the uncle's tone, and continued to ask:
"Uncle, how much does your stall sell?"

The uncle looked at Jinli now, "What's the matter? The little girl really wants to buy it? Let your adults talk about it."

Still smiling, Jin Li pointed to shopkeeper Yu, and said, "My lord is right there, uncle just tell me."

"Success! If you want to buy it, it's 15 taels of silver."

The uncle is also a cool person, so he directly said the price.

Jin Li looked back at shopkeeper Yu.

Shopkeeper Yu nodded.This price is very reasonable. If the stall owner is not eager to sell, this position should be able to sell for 20 taels.

"Uncle, may I ask why you sold the stall?"

Jin Li thought it would be better to ask more carefully.

The uncle sighed, "I have to sell this as a last resort."

The uncle was originally from the Beiyan country. He fled all the way during the war a few years ago and came to the border of Daxing.Just a year ago, Beiyan's family found him. His father and mother were in poor health and wanted him to go back, so the uncle had to sell the stall.

After listening to the uncle's explanation, Jin Li had already made up his mind to buy the uncle's booth.

That is, she didn't have 15 taels of silver, only six taels...

Seeing her hesitation, shopkeeper Yu said at the right time, "Miss Jinli, take a step to speak."

Jin Li followed him to the side.

"Miss Jinli, what do you think of this booth?"

Jin Li liked it very much, and said directly:

"It's not bad, but I don't have that much money in my hand."

Shopkeeper Yu thought for a while and suggested:

"Miss Jinli, how about this."

"Yu wants to buy a pearl from you. My wife has been with Yu for many years, and Yu has never given her anything. When I saw the pearl today, I planned to buy one from you as a gift. To my wife. It’s just that I felt that pearls were too precious at the time, and now Yu has the cheek to ask for them.”

 Jin Xiaoli: I didn't expect you to be such Shopkeeper Yu!How could he hurt his wife so much!
