Concubine You Can't: The Evil Emperor Dotes on Qingcheng Concubine

Chapter 22 How dare you cheat my money

Although Ji Zhuyu was a little surprised by the boy's request, she was not disgusted.It is love for others to help you, and it is duty not to help you, so she will pay the traveling fee.

She glanced at the only piece of cloth on the wooden board. It was bright in color and had a faint golden light. The weaving thread was dense. It was indeed a good piece of cloth, but the silk thread used was not of the highest quality. It would not cost much. .

Ji Zhuyu nodded and agreed, "Okay, how much is your piece of cloth, I'll buy it."

The boy stretched out a hand, showing his white teeth, "Five taels of silver."

"What! Five taels of silver!"

Before Ji Zhuyu could open her mouth, Xuetong jumped up first. She pointed at the piece of cloth, and said solemnly: "You actually sell this piece of cloth for five taels of silver, why don't you grab it?"

Three years of silver is enough for ordinary people to eat and drink for a year, but he sells cloth at a stall on the street and sells it for five taels of silver.Seeing his appearance, he thought he was a good man, but he turned out to be a black-hearted businessman, obviously because he saw that the two weak women were easy to bully, and took the opportunity to blackmail them!

The young man put on a look of whether he likes to buy or not, and said casually: "If I didn't have to go to jail for robbery, I would have done it a long time ago, so I still need to set up a stall here every day."

"you……"

Xuetong was about to argue with him, but was stopped by Ji Zhuyu. She showed a gentle smile and planned to bargain with the young man, "Boss, although your cloth has dense threads and good color, the silk thread you can use is Generally speaking, it’s really not worth five taels of silver, how about it, it’s cheaper, one tael of silver.”

Now that she has just returned to Ji's Mansion, she only has ten taels of silver to receive every month, and she has no income other than that. There are still many places where she will need money in the future, and she really can't afford to spend five taels of silver to buy this piece of cloth.

The young man gave Ji Zhuyu a sideways look. He thought she was well-dressed and thought he was being taken advantage of, but it turned out that she was poor.If that's the case, then why should he talk to them?

"I know how much my cloth sells for. It's your turn to teach me. If you can't afford it, hurry up and waste my time."

Ji Zhuyu was stimulated by the young man's attitude of watching the dishes, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and the corners of her mouth curved into a sinister arc.All right, all the money has been cheated on my aunt, I will definitely teach you an unforgettable lesson today, let you know that not everyone can afford my aunt's money.

"Calm down, boss. We will definitely buy your cloth. I am a young and ignorant girl, so I speak too aggressively. Don't argue with her."

Seeing Ji Zhuyu's willingness to buy cloth, the young man's attitude improved a lot, "Master, I have a big heart, and I am not fussy like women. Since you say you are willing to buy cloth, then pay the money."

Ji Zhuyu touched the piece of cloth on the board, and still said kindly: "Don't worry, the boss, the money will not be given to you. It's just that I also get monthly money to live in the mansion, so I spent so much money to buy it now." If you go back with a piece of cloth, you will definitely be scolded by your family."

Seeing Ji Zhuyu gossip about him, the boy suspected that she was delaying time, "You mean not to buy it?"

"Haha!" Ji Zhuyu laughed, "I have already said that I want to buy it, so I will never go back on my word. The boss does not need to be confused. What I mean is, please tell me what is so good about your cloth? Why is it worth so much money? I'd better go back and report back to my family, so that I won't be scolded. What do you think?"

Seeing that Ji Zhuyu's words were convincing, and it didn't look like he was lying to him, the young man immediately felt relieved, and proudly explained to Ji Zhuyu what is good about his cloth.

"It seems that this lady is also someone who understands fabrics. It is true that my fabrics are not very good at first glance, but if you look carefully, there are gold threads in them."

"Gold Line?!"

Ji Zhuyu wondered, the boy saw this, spread out all the cloth, and exposed it to the sunlight.In the lower left corner of the fabric, there is indeed a large golden peony flower embroidered, which is extremely dazzling under the sunlight.

Ji Zhuyu was speechless, and said with emotion: "Such a big peony flower is all embroidered with gold thread?"

Ji Zhuyu's amazed appearance made the young man very proud, he nodded, "Of course!"

"Judging by the size of these many peonies, I'm afraid it will cost a tael of gold, plus the cost of the fabric itself. Boss, won't it be too bad for you to sell only five taels of silver?"

The young man choked on Ji Zhuyu's words, and a trace of unnaturalness flashed across his face, but it was fleeting.He waved his hands, pretending to be indifferent, "It's not too bad, it's just enough to pay back the cost. So, you bought this piece of cloth, it is definitely worth the money, you have also seen the hot scene just now, so much People rush to buy my cloth, if it is normal, there will be no more, today you are lucky, there is the last one left, so I will sell you cheap."

I believe you are a ghost!

Ji Zhuyu secretly thought that in her previous life, she had been the female president for more than ten years, and she knew the cost and profit of the product very well.The selling price of the goods will generally be doubled by one or two times the cost price, and some unscrupulous merchants will even double it by ten times to make huge profits by shoddy.

Businessmen pursue profit, which is an invariable rule in ancient and modern times. Those so-called jumping off buildings and reselling at a loss are just promotional gimmicks, attracting unsuspecting passers-by to waste money, and the actual cost may be very low.

If you want not to be fooled by merchants, you must always keep in mind that it is impossible for merchants to sell things at a loss.

Ji Zhuyu is very clear about the tricks in this, she was not fooled by the young man's rhetoric, but suddenly changed the subject and talked about another matter.

"Boss, do you know about a plant called the golden peach leaf coral?"

The boy suddenly had a shocked expression on his face, his flowery face was a little pale, but in the end he shook his head stiffly.

Ji Zhuyu's gentle smile made anyone think that she was an ignorant young lady, but the young man thought that smile was like a reminder that he was about to reveal his deepest secret.
