Nongmen Xianggong is a koi

Chapter 29

"The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, and being too greedy will not end well. I just got two hundred extra money in the house. I just don't want it. I have to go to another place to inquire. Come back later, I am afraid there will be no shopkeeper. I look good."

The guy looked like he hated iron for being weak, and kept nagging, "Come back later, don't blame me for not reminding you."

Jiang Youcheng had no idea what he said, so he just reached out and tugged at Jiang Mixia's sleeve.

Jiang Mixia only said to the clerk, "I have to remind you, you have to shop around when buying things. The same is true for selling things. If you really can't sell them at the price, you should be more at ease in your heart. Do you have those two hundred? Money is okay."

The man curled his lips upon hearing this.

It is clear that it is a farmer's muddy leg that wants to break into two petals for a penny, and the master who wants to walk sideways in the village if he has two hundred dollars in his hand, and now he is here saying that two hundred dollars is fine.

I'm really not afraid to laugh my teeth out.

The man sneered, "It's enough to talk about it, so I won't talk too much. Go south along this street, and you'll find the Gaoji Pawnshop. Go and ask the price, and you'll be sure."

After all, he flung his sleeves and went back to the shop.

And at the corner door in the backyard of Zhenbaozhai, a figure jumped out, hurried up the street, mixed into the crowd, and disappeared quickly.

The three of Jiang Mixia didn't see this scene, they just left the entrance of Zhenbao Zhai, and found a place with few people to discuss about pearls.

"I think that shopkeeper Qian is so full of words, I guess he has confidence, this pearl is really worthless." Jiang Youcheng scratched the back of his head.

He also thought that if the pearls could be exchanged for money, he would renovate the house and buy land, so that the life of the family would be easier in the future. Now it seems that at most it is to renovate the house.

After all, it was much worse than expected, Jiang Youcheng looked a little downcast at the moment.

"Zhenbaozhai is a business, so it's natural to lower the price when we buy things. It's just like when we buy things, we have to pick out bad places and say that the price next to it is cheaper. In fact, it may not necessarily mean that the price next to it is lower, but it's just casual. Just say it."

Jiang Mixia said, "Let's go and ask the price first."

"That's true, at least I have something in mind." Jiang Youcheng nodded.

The three of them went to Gao Ji's pawnshop together.

After some haggling, the price offered by the pawn shop was a maximum of two taels of silver.

"This……"

After leaving the pawn shop, Jiang Youcheng scratched his head again, "I guess the treasurer of the money really didn't lie to us, and the pearl probably has this price."

Jiang Mixia pursed her lips.

It always feels like something isn't quite right.

The price given by the pawn shop was too consistent with what the shopkeeper said.

"Then let's go to Zhenbao Zhai and sell the pearls." Jiang Youcheng suggested.

Three taels of silver is also money.

This pearl was picked up for nothing, which is equivalent to picking up three taels of silver for nothing. This is the income of the whole family for half a year if it is put aside in previous years.

"Let's go to the side to have a look." Jiang Mixia didn't want to go back to Zhenbao Zhai.

The clerk's arrogant attitude and the coincidence of the price made Jiang Mixia feel that it was not normal there, and it seemed that the store was bullying customers.

Moreover, they are not far from each other in the county town, and they are all shops with some interoperable businesses. If the two sides join forces, buy at a low price, make some modifications, and sell at a high price, it is not impossible...

The daughter was cautious, and Jiang Youcheng was also a little unwilling to pay the price of the pearl, and thought it would be okay to go to the side to have a look, but they were not familiar with the county town, and they didn't know where there were jewelry shops, let alone which jewelry shops were reliable. You can only walk on the street while looking around.

"Is this also a jewelry shop?" Song Jingyun pointed to a shop not far ahead, "I see the cloth strips hanging on it are the same pattern as the shop just now."

In ordinary shops, in addition to the wooden signboard above the door, most of them hang a small wooden sign or a soft sign with a pattern painted on it, so that illiterate people can see what the shop does at a glance.

Although Song Jingyun is illiterate, he can remember the patterns.

Jiang Mixia looked up, and sure enough, she saw the words "Jinyu Pavilion" written on the signboard hanging above the shop.

However, this shop looks brand new, as if it was newly opened, not as gorgeously decorated as Zhenbaozhai, and there are few people coming in and out, so the business seems quite deserted.

But since it's a jewelry store, let's try it out.

Jiang Mixia nodded, "It should be, let's go and have a look."

The three entered the Jinyu Pavilion one after another.

There are indeed not many people inside, only one or two are picking things there.

When the clerk saw someone coming, he hurriedly greeted them, "What do you want to see, sir? Bracelets, hairpins, or collars, what are they for, birthday gifts, children's dowry, children's [-]th birthday?"

"Neither." Jiang Mixia explained the purpose of coming, "A few pearls have grown out of the clam, and I would like to ask your shopkeeper to make a price."

Seeing that he was not buying but selling things, the shopkeeper kept smiling, "Those three have to wait for a while, the shopkeeper is there to pay the bills, and I'll take you there when I'm done."

"It's work."

This guy has a kind attitude, and Jiang Mixia has a good impression of him.

After a while, the customers who were picking things checked out and left. The clerk brought Jiang Mixia over, "This is our shopkeeper, surnamed Zhao."

"Boss, these guys want to sell pearls."

"Selling pearls?" Shopkeeper Zhao laughed, "Did they come out of mussels?"

"Exactly." Jiang Mixia replied.

"Then you are really lucky. The pearls in this wild river mussel are not common. Please take them out and let me have a look and give you an estimate."

Shopkeeper Zhao came out from behind the counter, "This way please."

Jiang Mixia and the others followed shopkeeper Zhao to a room in the backyard, and after they sat down, they took out the pearls.

Shopkeeper Zhao took a side handkerchief and put it in his hand, then picked up the three pearls and looked at them carefully one by one.

"This one is big, not round enough, slightly flawed on the surface, and slightly light in weight. In terms of quality alone, it is acceptable."

"This one is medium in size, oval, with slight blemishes on the surface. In terms of quality, it is a medium product."

"This one is small in size, perfectly round, with a smooth surface and few blemishes. In terms of quality, it is on the upper side, but the size is really too small, and the things that can be made are limited."

Shopkeeper Zhao gave comments one by one, then looked at Jiang Mixia and the others, "I don't know what price the three want?"

Jiang Youcheng thought for a while, and tentatively stretched out five fingers.

But he hesitated, thinking about whether to stretch four...

Jiang Mixia opened the mouth first, "Shopkeeper Zhao also knows that we farmers don't understand this. Shopkeeper Zhao will look at it and give it to us. If it's suitable, we'll sell it."

"In this case, I will make an offer."
