Jiaohu

Chapter 19

"Is your boss there?"

After handing over today's quail and pheasant, Zhao Huniu suddenly said to the man.

"what?"

The guy froze for a moment, then glanced upstairs,

"Maybe I'm here, I haven't heard anything about the boss going out today."

"Then please tell me, brother, that I have something to discuss with your boss."

"Oh, okay, girl, wait for a while, I'll go up and look for the boss,"

"Yes."

The man went to the second floor in three steps and two steps, and Zhao Huniu was waiting on the first floor; sure enough, after a short time, Jin Bolei came down the stairs.

"Long time no see Miss Zhao,"

"Long time no see, Boss Jin."

Jin Bolei nodded to her with a smile on his face,
"I heard from Xiaoyi that Ms. Zhao said that she has something to ask me for. I don't know what it is?"

"Does Boss Jin accept foxes?"

"Ok?"

What Zhao Huniu said made Jin Bolei puzzled; but it didn't take him long to think about it, because what the girl took out from the pocket she was holding answered the man's doubts.

It was a dead red fox,

Huge red fox.

Although this place is not very prosperous, Jin Bolei also stayed in the capital when he was young, and saw many rare things; it was the first time he saw a fox as big as the red fox that Zhao Huniu touched.

At a glance, the fox's fur is dense and smooth, except for a hole in the neck - which is obviously the cause of the fox's death, it is almost undamaged.

If such a fox were to be skinned, it would cost at least a few hundred taels.

"This this,"

"If you want it, how about taking this fox for you?"

Zhao Huniu grabbed the fox's neck, not minding the big hole left on it, and handed it to Jin Bolei.

"As for me, I don't know any cloth merchants and leather merchants, and I don't know the skill of skinning. You are a big boss in the county town, and you must know someone who can peel off this leather intact.

Look at the fur of this fox,"

As she said that, Zhao Huniu stretched out her hand and wiped the fox's back, and the fur was immediately covered, and it looked more and more like a satin.

"This fur, I'm afraid it can be sold for a good price. I will charge you a material fee, and then you can sell it or use it. Boss Jin, you can do whatever you want."

What Zhao Huniu said is indeed reasonable,
Jin Bolei wanted to take a closer look at the fox's body, but the hollowness on the corpse made him terrified, so he had to try his best to look carefully at the uninjured lower part.
"It's really a good leather. Girl, let me make a price, I'll accept this thing."

"I don't want to ask for a price. How do we mountain folks know the price of this thing? Boss Jin, please give me a price." Zhao Huniu hooked the corner of her mouth,
"I trust Boss Jin, he won't lie to me about a little girl."

This is cleverly said,

Jin Bolei looked at Zhao Huniu's dark eyes and laughed,
"This is natural. Ms. Zhao and I are now partners. The foundation of business lies in integrity. This is true for customers and partners.

Well, I don't want too much,
This fox, I will give the girl 100 taels, I wonder if the girl is willing? "

"?"

Seeing that Zhao Huniu was silent, Jin Bolei thought she thought the price was too low. After thinking for a while, he said again:

"Miss, I don't know. Although this leather is a good product, it is more troublesome to handle. Not all the fur of this fox can be used, and it will cost a lot of money to find a craftsman who can peel off the leather completely.

How about this, I will add 20 taels, how about 120 taels? "

Zhao Huniu was stunned before he realized that Jin Bolei had raised the price to 120 taels; he must have thought he was too cheap.
But the fact is,

She just didn't realize that this fox can be sold for so much?
"All right, 120 taels is enough."

Zhao Huniu hurriedly responded, fearing that she would regret it if she answered Jin Bolei a little late.Zhao Huniu breathed a sigh of relief, and Jin Bolei also breathed a sigh of relief. He waved to the buddy beside him,
"Xiao Yi, take this, this fox, to my room and find a piece of cloth to wrap it up."

"It's the boss."

Zhao Huniu handed the fox to Jia Xiaoyi again,
Jia Xiaoyi smacked his lips and took it reluctantly.

"Miss Zhao, wait a moment, I'll go upstairs and weigh the money,"

"Hey Boss Jin, slow down," Jin Bolei was about to leave when Zhao Huniu called out again; he turned his head and saw Zhao Huniu opened his pocket again,
Then Zhao Huniu took out a large piece,

The piece of meat, which was much bigger than her palm, was handed to the man again.

"What about this, Boss Jin, are you interested?"

"what is this?"

"This is snake meat."

"Snake meat?!"

Jinlulou should be regarded as his first blessed place. Zhao Huniu stood at the gate of Jinlulou, and the idea came to him spontaneously.

My first weapon was obtained from the first time I came out of Jinlulou,

Coming out of the Jinlu Tower this time,

She suddenly changed from a little poor ghost with only a few hundred pennies to a rich man with nothing.

She also sold the two pieces of snake meat to Jin Bolei,
Although seeing the size of the snake meat and associating it with the size of the whole snake made Jin Bolei very uncomfortable, such a large piece of snake meat is really rare, and the snake skin Zhao Huniu attached to it is also well preserved.

One piece five taels,
Zhao Huniu sold both yuan, and suddenly gained another ten taels of white silver.

The skin is more expensive than the meat, Zhao Huniu realized this, such a large piece of snake meat, in the end, the main selling price is still the price of the snake skin; it seems that next time I will try to get the skin off as much as possible.
Keep it for yourself.

But if you want to peel the skin, you can't use the iron spear or the sickle. Thinking of this, Zhao Huniu immediately turned at the intersection.

"Boom, boom, boom,"

The familiar sound of iron striking came from the Li family's iron shop.
It seems that it hasn't been long since the last time I came, and I didn't expect to come again so soon; Li Chui was coming out of the door, and he was surprised when he saw Zhao Huniu:
"Hey, Miss Zhao, why are you here again? Is there something wrong with the gun you shot before?"

"What? That little girl is here again?"

Li Meng in the room heard the sound of Li Hammer, and he was hitting the iron plate with a hammer, sparks flew everywhere, making a very crisp sound,
"Little San'er! Hurry up and invite him in!"

Li Meng's voice was much louder than that of blacksmithing, both Li Chui and Zhao Huniu heard it, and just as Li Chui was about to speak, Zhao Huniu went straight in.

"Uncle Li, here I come again."

"Why, is there something wrong with the gun?"

"No, the gun works great,"

Zhao Huniu saw Li Meng waving a hammer and hammering the iron pieces in the forging furnace while talking to herself; she could feel that Li Meng was an ordinary person who had never practiced martial arts,
But this hammer-swinging move is one move.
"Oh, so what are you here for?"

"I'm here to fight."

"Hit something? What do you want to hit again?"

"A short knife,"

"Short knife?"

As soon as Zhao Huniu looked away, Li Meng immediately said:
"Bring a pen and paper here."

As usual, Li Chui took the pen and paper and handed it to Zhao Huniu. Zhao Huniu leaned over to draw, and put down the pen after a while.

"Is this possible?"

Li Meng glanced at it and laughed,
"What can't you do? Can you?"

"Then make this dagger for me." Giving the paper to Li Chui, Zhao Huniu untied the purse and took out a silver coin from it.There is one tael for this ingot of silver,
They handed it to Li Hammer together.

"The material used for this knife must be better than that of the gun last time. It must be extremely sharp and can easily separate the flesh of wild animals."

As she said this, she took out another ingot of silver,
Another ingot.

A total of three ingots of silver were handed heavily to Li Chui.

Li Chui's eyes were wide open, and Li Qiang, who was on the sidelines, also widened his eyes - last time when Zhao Huniu came, he could only give half a copper coin in embarrassment, but now he can give three taels so generously the amount of silver,

How can people not be surprised?
Li Meng just glanced at it, and didn't make any fuss like his two sons.
"It seems that you are rich this time. Well, you can rest assured that the more money you spend on materials, the better they will be used. Come and get them after ten days."

"Okay. Then these three ingots of silver will be my deposit,"

Zhao Huniu raised her chin, feeling rather high-spirited,

"Just choose the materials, and when the time comes, let's calculate the money carefully."

"Hahahaha, well, since the customer has spoken so generously, how can I be negligent? Let's inspect the goods in ten days."

"it is good."

Coming out of the Lijia Iron Shop, Zhao Huniu stretched comfortably,
She checked the wound thrown by the giant snake that day, and there was nothing serious about it, but she didn't plan to enter Jianlin Mountain again until the dagger and fire were done.

Speaking of entering Jianlin Mountain, she thought of the wolf that chased her.If he encounters wolves in Jianlin Mountain next time, he still has to think of other ways.

It seems that only iron guns and short knives are not enough,

You have to prepare something else.

But today is already late, Zhao Huniu looked up at the sky, the sky was already the color of a burnt pork leg, it seems that there is no car to go back to Brassica Village, and they can only pass in Li County Went back overnight.

When she came, she took the donkey cart from the next village to the city halfway, and it was definitely impossible to ask others to take her back.

It is really troublesome to go in and out like this. Why don't you just buy a donkey cart by yourself, so that you can drive the cart into the city in the future, and you can transport more things, and you don't have to spend time with others.

There will definitely be no livestock sellers at this point, so hurry up and find an inn to rest.

Thinking of this, Zhao Huniu walked to the street with many inns.

……

"I heard that the girl from the Wu family of the village came down from Jianlin Mountain?"

"Yes dad,"

In Brassica Village’s head’s house, a man who could be called handsome was outside the house, talking to the people inside through the door.In the room, a somewhat old voice came out:
"No injuries?"

"It looks like there are only a few scratches, and the clothes are a little bit torn, other,
No. "

"Is that so..."

　Creation needs, resist fur.
