Chapter 27 The First Pot of Gold

Chapter 27 The First Pot of Gold
The shopkeeper hurriedly motioned to the guy on the side to pour water for them.

Old man Xu also took out the ginseng at this time.

He carefully opened the wrapped cloth. During this period, the shopkeeper and the waiter kept staring at the things in his hand, as if looking forward to it.

After a while, a ginseng with some dried mud appeared in everyone's eyes.

After handing the item to the shopkeeper, he took it with some excitement, carefully put it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

Xu Lingyue looked up and down the shopkeeper from the side, and saw that his eyes were clear, and although he was excited, he didn't look greedy at all, so she made a rough evaluation of the shopkeeper in her heart.

It seems that he is not a profiteer, this Jishitang is indeed a time-honored brand.

After a while, the shopkeeper smiled and gave the answer in a kind tone: "About 200 years."

Xu Lingyue didn't respond to hearing about the 200 year old, after all, she didn't understand the value of ginseng.

But maybe the old man was different, obviously he was a little excited, but it was much higher than he expected.

Xu Lingyue couldn't help but ask, "Then what's the price?"

At this time, the shopkeeper noticed that there was a little girl next to him. He smiled heartily and patiently explained: "Hahaha, little girl, don't worry, wait for the old man to weigh her."

After listening to his explanation, Xu Lingyue nodded half understanding.

Then, the shopkeeper ordered the guy on the side to take the ginseng and weigh it.

At this moment, he began to chat, and asked intentionally or unintentionally: "I don't know where this old man got it from?"

Seeing him talking about this matter, old man Xu didn't want to hide it, after all, it's not a secret.

He stroked his beard and explained with a smile: "It's lucky, I happened to see it on the mountain."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper nodded, with a hint of envy in his eyes.

If only he had such luck!
After a while, the guy came back.

The shopkeeper pointed to the scale and said with a smile: "Brother, come and see if it is the number."

Old man Xu stepped forward to take a look, staring at the scale with his cloudy eyes for a long time, and then nodded.

Xu Lingyue also went up to take a look, but this kind of name is rare in modern times, so she didn't understand it for a long time.

Immediately afterwards, the shopkeeper made a gesture and said with a smile: "Well, I, Guan, am also a real person, how about giving this number to my brother?"

Old man Xu saw that this was much more than he expected, so he readily accepted it.

Then, the shopkeeper leaned over to the clerk and said a few words in the ear, and then saw the clerk ran out in a hurry.

After a while, the person came back.

The shopkeeper handed the received silver to the old man Xu, and explained to him patiently: "Here is 250 taels, which are two 100 taels of silver notes, four ten taels of silver ingots, and some broken silver and The copper plate, my brother can put it away."

Xu Lingyue, who was at the side, saw that he had exchanged a large amount of silver for broken silver and copper plates so thoughtfully, and immediately had a better impression of the shopkeeper.

In the future, if there are ginseng and the like, they will still come to Jishitang to sell them.

After collecting the money, the two prepared to leave Jishitang.

Until it disappeared, the shopkeeper looked at the ginseng again, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, it was the first time he met a ginseng of this quality. I have to say that the old man's luck is really enviable.

The clerk at the side was full of joy, and asked: "Shopkeeper, since someone has ginseng, do you think I need to invite that adult over?"

"Yeah..." Hearing this, the shopkeeper looked away from the ginseng and nodded lightly.

But the next second he sighed heavily again.

I don't know if the lord can leave. After all, it has been delayed for a long time. It is said that he is from the capital, and he seems to be a high-ranking lord.

On the other side, the father and daughter had just left Jishitang when they ran into the eldest brother who came looking for them.

Xu Hongfu asked, "Father, what's the matter?"

Old man Xu was still a little excited at this moment, and his voice trembled slightly: "We'll talk about it when we go back."

Xu Lingyue at the side said mysteriously: "Brother, I promise to surprise you."

What he said immediately made Xu Hongfu's heart itch, and he kept guessing in his heart how surprised the little girl was when she said she was surprised.

Then only Mrs. Wu had to wait, and they found a place to sit down, and old man Xu handed the remaining steamed buns to Xu Hongfu.

Seeing that the steamed stuffed bun also had a share, he was immediately moved.

After waiting for a long time, before Mrs. Wu's arrival, old man Xu became a little worried.

Xu Hongfu at the side probably guessed what the old man was thinking, so he suggested, "Father, why don't we go and see the second brother?"

After a long time, Old Man Xu said, "That's fine."

After all, he hadn't seen him for so long, and he also missed his son a little. Now that they are all here, why not just go and see him.

Xu Lingyue at the side was not interested in seeing that second brother, she wanted to go for a walk in the street.

Xu Lingyue said coquettishly, "Father, I want to go shopping."

Hearing that my good daughter wanted to go shopping, old man Xu became a little tangled up.

After all, it's my daughter's home, not to mention that Ah Yue is at the age of fun, so it's normal to want to go shopping.

Seeing that he hesitated, Xu Lingyue said quickly, "Father, why don't you and elder brother go to find Auntie, I'll go shopping around, and see you at the gate of the city."

The elder brother on the side nodded: "I think it will work."

Seeing his daughter's anticipation, the old man Xu couldn't help but pull him aside, and slowly took out some broken silver and copper plates from his dilapidated purse.

He handed the money to Xu Lingyue and said, "Ah Yue, take this money and buy whatever you want."

Originally, Xu Lingyue just wanted to stroll around casually, but she never thought that old man Xu would give her money in private.

It would be a lie to say that I am not moved.

Xu Lingyue pushed and shoved, but refused: "Father, I don't need it."

The old man Xu became serious in an instant, with an attitude that could not be refused: "Take it, you can't wrong yourself, let alone the money you deserve."

Having said that, Xu Lingyue obediently put away the money.

She vowed to be filial to his old man after earning a lot of money.

It wasn't until Xu Lingyue walked away that old man Xu looked away, but his eyes couldn't stop worrying.

The old man Xu looked at the eldest son with a serious expression, and said in a serious tone: "Boss, you have to treat Ah Yue well in the future. Remember, it is her that Xiao Yao is qualified to go to school."

Xu Hongfu lowered his head in shame, nodded and said, "My son has made a note."

The words that Dad said woke him up completely. The younger sister could have refused, but in the end she still chose to use the money to send Xiao Yao and A Bao to school.

Just now, he was still feeling a little uncomfortable, because his father didn't know what he was talking to his younger sister, but he didn't say it in front of him.
