Chapter 42

Jin Lian was carrying a parcel on her back, rolled up her sleeves, and looked like a peasant girl, changing from her former dignified and virtuous.There is a little more vigor in the bright eyes, and a little more toughness in the delicate figure that was teased and coveted by the men in the village in the past.

"Master, I have made up my mind. I will follow you into the city. As long as you can set up a stage for me, I will sing! Will our traffic be better?"

Yinbao thought for a while, "Have you discussed this matter with Sinan?"

Jin Lian nodded resolutely, "Well, from now on, I will be my own Jin Lian, and I won't lose my temper like before."

"Alright, Sinan will stay here today to do the final infrastructure construction. You can ask my elder brother who you think you will go with."

Jin Lian showed embarrassment, she answered but refused to leave, Yin Bao was about to close the door, seeing her hesitate, "Is there anything else?"

"Master, how can we pay him for my father's horse?"

Yin Bao rubbed the dark circles under his eyes, yawned, went to the cabinet to get the clothes unhurriedly, and wrote lightly, "Don't worry, I have a solution!"

At the gate of Mizhuang City, because too many people entered the city, Wang Sanxiang distributed special blue customs clearance symbols to the merchants, while the common people issued red symbols.

Many ordinary people with red cards saw that Yinbao and his party were tall and prosperous, and they were still holding blue cards in their hands, and they all asked if there was any help in the store.

The eldest brother brought some money with him, "Daughter, there are too many things to purchase today, and someone has to deliver them and take care of them in batches. Let's hire some temporary workers at a cheaper price!"

Yin Bao nodded, the eldest brother hired three hours of temporary workers, and the wages were one penny, and he hired more than a dozen at once, and brought a few of his own people, and hurried to the morning market to buy fresh meat and vegetables.

The second brother and the six kitchen girls divided the kitchen into red case (for selling meat) and white case (for buying rice porridge and pasta, etc.), separated the pots, and arranged all the seasonings and knives.

Yin Bao asked Jin Lian to go upstairs to prepare now, and she went down when the elder brother came back to set up the stage, "Take it easy when singing, don't get hurt, the temporary stage is not safe, let elder brother watch carefully."

Jin Lian nodded in response, seeing that Yin Bao was about to leave, "What is the master going to do?"

Yin Bao took out the land deed in his hand, "I'll pawn the land deed."

Jin Lian showed embarrassment, "But this area is a prefecture-level house, and the authority is in the hands of the governor. We only have the right to use it. Even if we go to the pawnshop, the maximum is only 1000 taels of silver."

Holding the title deed, Yinbao looked downstairs at Yuhuan Pavilion, which opened today. 1000 taels, "That's enough. Today I'll show you how to use 1000 taels to reach 1 taels!"

Seeing Yin Bao going downstairs excitedly, Jin Lian put the clothes on the table in her arms and hurriedly followed.

Turning around a few streets, I saw several pawnshops. Yinbao was about to go in and have a look, but was pulled back by Jinlian, and said in a low voice, "Master, these shops have had troubles in the past, and the character of the shopkeepers needs to be considered, I know There is a pawnshop in the street near there, which has been open for more than [-] years, and I used to be a jewelry shop there."

A trace of doubt flashed in Yinbao's eyes, Jinlian used to be Tsing Yi in the theater, every time she appeared in the theater, the theaters were full, and when she needed to be jewelry?
Arriving at the door of the store, "Chutian Pawn Shop", Yin Bao's lips curled up, "Hey, this name is very grand!"

Jin Lian whispered in Yin Bao's ear, "The owner's surname is Chen. Like my family, he is very good at judging people, caring about people, and never giving up an inch of profit. But in the pawn business, reputation has always been widely praised. "

Yin Bao went in, and saw a shrewd little old man in a black round cap, a brown half-length gown, and black-rimmed glasses, standing in the closet and crackling with plans.

Hearing the sound, he didn't lift his head, kept his hands on, and his eyes calculated ten lines at a glance on the densely packed account books, but his mouth didn't slip a word, and he said slickly——

"Jewelry and jade, wenwan walnut harvest."

"Mahogany green jade, harvested from pure hibiscus."

"The title deed of the house, the dragonwood crutches."

Yin Bao and Jin Lian looked at each other, Jin Lian said in a low voice, "Boss Chen is so quiet, he doesn't ask people, and when he walks in, he's straight to the point."

Yin Bao nodded, and raced the land deed in his hand through the small hole. The boss took a second out of his spare time, swiped the ground to look over it, and returned to the abacus.

"Rent a house for ten days, a prefecture-level house, affiliated with the palace, and a red badge in place. Accept, how many days will it be taken?"

Yin Bao frowned slightly, but Jin Lian didn't know what it meant.

The boss glanced up and saw that Yinbao was a new customer, so he took the time to twitch the corners of his mouth, "The land deeds of prefecture-level houses cannot be bought or sold according to the laws of the Jin Dynasty, and the pawn period does not exceed three months. When will you come to pick it up?"

Yin Bao thought for a while, "How to calculate the interest?"

The boss's hand tapping on the abacus suddenly stopped, and his hand turning over the book also stopped. He raised his head and adjusted his glasses, only then did he see that beside Yinbao was Chen Jinlian, a former famous Mizhuang actor.

"Other objects, the longer they get, the lower they get. Yours is different. It's more than three months old, and it's a piece of waste paper, so the longer it gets, the higher it gets."

Yin Bao thought for a while, "I should be able to get it back today."

The boss rolled his eyes quickly, "300 taels. When you take it, 500 taels."

Yin Bao was dumbfounded, "Such a high interest rate?"

"You are a prefecture-level house. Go out and ask. No one dares to accept this kind of house deed. 300 taels, with a daily interest of 200 taels. If you want to pay or keep it, it's up to you."

After speaking, the boss began to plan again.

Yin Bao murmured, "300 taels is not enough."

Jin Lian asked, "What is the hall master asking for money for? How much is still missing?"

"We are short of 200 taels."

Yin Bao turned to look at the boss, "Brother, can you be more flexible, I can redeem it today!"

The boss didn't raise his eyes, "You can go to another house and ask."

Holding the house deed, Yin Bao neither left nor stopped.Jin Lian held the package in her arms, unwrapped it on the wooden table beside her, and took out two neatly folded water sleeves from inside.

"Boss, how much is this water sleeve worth?"

"This is a reward from the ancestor of the Mizhuang Opera Troupe. It has been passed down from generation to generation. It has been 300 years. It is also my life. If it is worth 200 taels, I will give it to you!"

Boss Chen is a fan of operas, and what he liked most before was going to the Zuiqing Pavilion to listen to operas, and he also knows how important this water sleeve is to an opera artist.

The boss lowered his eyes, took out his own voucher from the drawer, wrote down the details with a graphite pen beside him, opened the locked drawer, took out a 500 tael silver ticket, and pushed it out through the small window.

Yinbao took it, and stuffed the land deed and the water sleeve into the small window together. The boss carefully protected the water sleeve, and threw the title deed back, "The water sleeve is enough. To redeem it today, it only costs 1000 taels."

The corner of Yinbao's mouth twitched, thinking that this guy was thinking of opera for a while, so the price would not be raised, but at least he had capital, so the two of them went out and hurried to Yuhuan Pavilion.

Fortunately, firecrackers were being set off, and the whole alley was full of people. Yin Bao and Jin Lian squeezed in, but because they couldn't stand in the room, they could only put the box sealed with Tibetan jade in the middle, while Yu Huan Pavilion and Shui Xiang The hall was full of people, and there was a burst of aroma from the back kitchen. Yinbao saw the eldest brother collecting the copper coins happily, and the second brother was also very energetic.

Next, it's up to her.

"The first piece in today's collection! Shanxi acacia stone!"
