Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

On Chengdong Street, with Ruyifang as the center, Zhao's Pawnshop belongs to the best golden area on the vertical street at the intersection north of the center.

Its facade is also quite impressive, with the same two floors and five shops.

Three of them are connected to the Zhao family's silver building, and the other two are the Zhao family's pawn shops.

The carriage drove all the way east and waited until it passed the Ruyifang street.

Then slowly turn into the street where Zhao's pawn shop is located.

When it stopped, Zhou Banxia moved.

The "he" who never showed up neatly took out the improved rice huller, large fan, household wind box, and a bag of rice and stuffed them into the carriage and immediately entered the space.

With two deeds of sale in hand, not only the father and son whom she bought with confidence did not dare to run away, Gu Wenxuan also felt at ease.

Let the middle-aged man guard the mule cart outside, take the young man carrying a package, and step into the Zhao family's pawn shop accompanied by two guards.

Not to mention, from the outside, the store looks grand and richly decorated, but the interior is not inferior at all.

The third thief Zhao is rich.

The richly dressed middle-aged man (Gu Wenxuan) held a fan in the cold weather, raised his chin, and the young boy asked the waiter to invite the shopkeeper over.

As soon as these words were said, the old priest behind the counter asked a waiter to respectfully invite the distinguished guest to move to the private room inside, and he went to invite the shopkeeper.

Zhou Banxia didn't see this scene, otherwise he would have laughed to death.

No matter which dynasty you live in, you can't live well if you go to a pawnshop, and you can't lose your temper if you want to pawn something.

Gu Wenxuan knows this very well.

At this moment, "she", who had taken advantage of Gu Wenxuan's cover to leave when the car was parked, could no longer think about how to deal with Gu Wenxuan after entering the store.

After walking a few steps, she found a carriage. "She" transformed into a little scholar and asked the driver to take "her" to a street near the Zhao family's house in Fucheng and get off.

After walking for a while, she spent [-] yuan to ask the waiter at the teahouse to help deliver a letter to the Zhao family's concierge, and she quickly returned to the Zhao family's pawn shop to wait.

During this period, in the private room of the pawn shop, the shopkeeper of the Zhao family pawn shop came very quickly.

Calls himself surnamed Zhao.

He was paler and fatter than the Butler Zhao whom Gu Wenxuan had met before, and his attitude was more kind. He smiled without saying a word and bowed as soon as he came in.

Gu Wenxuan didn't know if the other party recognized that the two guards guarding the door of the private room were martial arts masters from the Zhenhai Escort Bureau, but the other party didn't mention it and was more happy to ignore it.

"Let your surname be Wang."

He changed himself to the same surname as his waist brand Lu Yin.

Gu Wenxuan exchanged a few words with shopkeeper Zhao and then got down to business. He took out a wallet, opened it and handed it to him.

Logically speaking, if you want to sell pearls, you should go to the silver shop next door instead of going directly to the pawn shop.

Apparently shopkeeper Zhao didn't expect this when he saw the pearls in the purse.

Gu Wenxuan saw Shopkeeper Zhao stunned for a moment, and then he reacted and began to calmly pour the pearls in his purse into a cushioned tray.

The pearls poured out were so bright that they almost covered the tray, and they were all the same size.

Shopkeeper Zhao blinked subconsciously and realized that he was not dazzled.

When he looked up again, he saw Mr. Wang opposite, who was only holding a tea cup and not looking at the tray. He immediately realized that the customer in front of him was very calm. If he wanted to make business, he couldn't do it without taking the initiative to speak.

"Master, although these pearls of yours are not big, they are of the same size.

In this way, I will not bargain with you, but will give you two taels of silver per piece. "Mr. Wang" raised his head and glanced at Shopkeeper Zhao, "Five taels."If you don't accept it here, I will go to the Fang family's silver house. I have a grudge against the Fang family, but not against the money. "

The Fang family?
Shopkeeper Zhao smiled bitterly, "Three taels, this is the highest price I can give you.

I wonder where these pearls come from, sir? Are they still in stock?
To be honest, Mr. Wang, if you have a long-term supply channel, our Zhao family is very sincere and wants to achieve long-term cooperation with you. What do you think? "

"Master Wang" picked up the tea cup and took a sip, "This is brought back from the south by one of my brothers' caravans. I don't know when he can deliver it next time.

If you, the shopkeeper, are sincere, I will naturally come back to you first if I have these goods in the future.

However, I can’t explain your price to my brother. "

Shopkeeper Zhao pondered for a moment, then gritted his teeth and reported the price, "Three, two, five, we can't raise the price any more. If you add more, I really can't explain it to our master."

"Master Wang" slowly opened his mouth, reached out from his arms and took out a smaller purse than before, put it on the table, and pushed it to the opposite side, "Don't worry, the good stuff is here."

Shopkeeper Zhao immediately went to pick up the purse with both hands with a smile on his face.

I opened my purse and took a look, but I didn't dare to pour it on the tray casually like before.

"Twenty black pearls, each one the size of a thumb. How about it?" Mr. Wang looked at Shopkeeper Zhao with a half-smile, "I'm not exaggerating, are you? I won't embarrass you, 20 taels per pearl."

Shopkeeper Zhao was very happy when he saw the goods, when he suddenly heard that there were 20 taels each, and he was so shocked that his hands almost shook.The corner of his mouth twitched, and he quickly put his purse carefully on the table without knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Huh?" Mr. Wang suppressed a laugh and looked puzzled, "Is it too high?"

"It's too high!" Shopkeeper Zhao lost his hurry when he heard this.

He returned to his seat and sat down sideways, looking at Mr. Wang seriously, "I have to say something bold, there is no price like this in the entire city.

Let me tell you the truth. My eldest father is an official and he does not allow my third master to make dirty money. Therefore, in the whole city, our third master's business is the most fair. "

"Master Zhao?" Mr. Wang has been waiting for this sentence for a long time.

After saying that, he immediately put away his casual attitude, sat up straight and nodded, "He is a good official!"

"Yes."

Mr. Wang gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, as long as you don't make me too embarrassed in front of my brothers, Mr. Zhao, you can decide the price, or I'll charge you 380 taels of silver for these twenty black pearls."

"300 taels."

Mr. Wang closed his eyes and patted his thigh, "One price, 350 taels!"

"……Row!"

"It's a loss, it's a loss!" Mr. Wang wailed in a low voice, "Give me money, give me money. I'm afraid I'll regret it later. Hurry up, I'm going to regret it."

Shopkeeper Zhao couldn't help laughing, and immediately waved to the waiter who was waiting to pour tea to quickly pay the money, and then turned to coax people, hoping to get information about the source of the goods.

Mr. Wang returned to his undying posture, and replied absentmindedly. He reached for the cakes in front of him and ate them one bite at a time.

The waiter soon came in with the banknote. Shopkeeper Zhao motioned the waiter to hand it to the customer, and continued to remind him with a smile that if there is goods in the future, be sure to come to their pawn shop.

Mr. Wang took it and looked at it, checked the authenticity, casually put away the seven 100-tael banknotes, and nodded slowly.

Then he stood up, hesitated for a moment, and before Shopkeeper Zhao could speak, he sat down in frustration and muttered: "Forget it, I'm convinced."

what?
"Your Zhao family is really happy, and you are worthy of producing such a good official as Mr. Zhao. I am really convinced this time.

Ah Fu, move the things in the car in. "
