Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 177 Take a gamble, put all your eggs in one basket

Facing her current self in the mirror, Liu Ya was absent-minded for a moment, and then a little complacent.Although the current appearance is too young, but in time, she will definitely be a beauty embryo.

And now she is [-]% similar to her previous life, but the biggest difference is the clarity of her eyes and the tenderness of her lips.

"Little girl, is my mirror very clear?" The old woman asked again with a smile.

Liu Ya's face turned red now, and she felt that she had lost her composure.He smiled and said, "It's pretty good. How can I sell this bronze mirror?"

Ever since she looked at the bronze mirror, Liu Ya really wanted to buy a bronze mirror and go home.Because the appearance in the mirror is indeed more real, and if you look in the mirror more, although you seem a little narcissistic, you can definitely feel happy.

After all, a living cardamom girl is more sincere and passionate than a cold-blooded killer.Liu Ya still really likes her current appearance.

The old woman pointed to the bronze mirror in Liu Ya's hand and said, "Is this it? It costs two silver coins. The smaller ones cost one and a half silver coins. You can also give copper plates."

One penny is 120 copper plates, and the bronze mirror in Liu Ya's hand is worth 240 copper plates.And the smaller one costs one and a half cents, which is 180 Wen, which made Liu Ya startled.

Looking at the bronze mirror in her hand, Liu Ya hesitated.If I like it, I really like it. How can there be a little girl who doesn't love beauty.

However, I originally came to the city to make money, and before I found a chance to make money, I spent one or two hundred cash to buy a bronze mirror. Is this... suitable?

Seeing Liu Ya's hesitation, the old woman said: "My bronze mirror is carefully polished by the best craftsmen. It takes two days from engraving the mold to forming the bronze mirror, and it takes two or three more to carve and polish it." God. In the end, it takes a lot of time to polish the bronze mirror so that there are no traces of friction before it can be so bright. Such a bronze mirror will take at least ten or eight days. Tell me about this effort, yes Isn't it worth the price?"

Liu Ya doesn't know how to make a bronze mirror, but she also understands that in ancient times, productivity was backward, and all kinds of tools were people-oriented, and were carefully crafted and polished by skilled craftsmen.It also took a lot of effort.

Liu Ya wanted to buy it, but she looked at the big ones and the small ones...? ? ?
Liu Ya looked at the two bronze mirrors in her hand, one large and one small, and immediately noticed the difference.The two bronze mirrors are smooth and polished, and there are no obvious flaws.But the difference is that one side of the bronze mirror reflects his own cheek, which is slightly wider than the other side of the bronze mirror.

Although the difference is only small, Liu Ya's observation ability is extremely strong, in other words, her eyes are poisonous.When she was a killer, she could even see traces of ballistics.Although it only passed by in a flash, it can make her avoid the vital parts hit by the bullet to the greatest extent, which is enough to save her life.So the small difference between the two bronze mirrors fell into Liu Ya's eyes, and it was immediately clear.

Because of the discovery, Liu Ya picked up a hexagonal mirror and compared them carefully, and there was indeed a difference in the face.

This discovery is easy to say, that is, the mirror is not completely flat when polished, but has a slight curvature, so the people in the picture will not be too distorted.But the difference is that some bronze mirrors are convex outward after polishing, while others are concave inward.

To put it simply, the principle of these mirrors is similar to that of distorting mirrors, some make people look fat, and some make people look thin.It's just that this difference is extremely small, if it is not carefully compared with the two mirrors, or someone with such poisonous eyes as Liu Ya observes, it can basically be ignored.

But it was such a small difference that gave Liu Ya a flash of inspiration, and she immediately found a business opportunity.

Liu Ya smiled and asked the old woman, "Grandma, if I buy more of this bronze mirror, can you give me a discount?"

"What is a discounted price?" The old woman was stunned for a moment, unable to understand.

Liu Ya hurriedly said: "Can it be cheaper. To be honest, grandma, I think your bronze mirror is really good, and I want to buy a few to sell. If you give me a cheaper price, I can also make some money no."

"Ah, you little girl, you are an elf." The old woman looked at the bronze mirrors on her stall with a smile, and asked, "How many mirrors do you want? If you just buy two or three bronze mirrors, I'm also cheap." It’s not much, and each mirror will give you [-] cents cheaper. After all, artisans also have to support their families, and they are all hard-earned money.”

Liu Ya thought for a while and said: "How about, grandma, can you see if this works? I will buy the four bronze mirrors first, and you will give me the cheapest price. If I sell it, I will come back and get it from you. Otherwise, I will buy the four bronze mirrors first. I don’t have that much money, so I can’t buy too much at once. But if I just took your bronze mirror and sold it, you might not be able to trust me, right?”

The old woman thought for a while and said, "As long as you are on all four sides...then I'll give you a hundred cash in total. It really can't be any cheaper. A bronze mirror is 25 cash cheaper, and I don't even have to earn it."

Liu Ya pursed her lips and said nothing. In fact, this is not an easy price to accept.And whether her idea is successful or not, she has to grit her teeth and try it out, and she must take risks.

But after hesitating for a while, Liu Ya nodded and said, "Okay, then I will choose it myself. Does it mean that the four bronze mirrors will give me a hundred cash off regardless of size?"

The old woman nodded and said: "Choose, no matter the size, they are all the same cheap."

Only then did Liu Ya pick it up seriously.

In fact, there are subtle differences in the polishing of each mirror. It is estimated that these bronze mirrors were not made by one craftsman, but by two or three craftsmen.But everyone has different habits, even different eyesight, and the things they make are also different.

Liu Ya took a picture of each bronze mirror, then took it to the old woman, let her take a picture, saw the old woman's appearance in the mirror, and looked at her real appearance, and then selected four mirrors.

After Liu Ya finished choosing, the old woman asked while counting the price: "You picked the one with three big sides and one small side. Are you giving copper plates or silver?"

Liu Ya said: "I can only give copper coins, I don't have any silver."

The old woman nodded, and said with a smile: "You little girl is really strange. You pick a mirror, but what do you want me to look at. My old skin is full of folds, and I don't see anything."

Liu Ya pursed her lips and smiled, but said nothing.

The old woman's skill was considered good, and she said: "The big one is 240 Wen, the three mirrors are 720 Wen; the small one is 180 Wen, and the total is exactly [-] Wen. It is agreed that I will give you [-] Wen cheaper, and you will give me [-] Wen." Wen Qian."

Liu Ya took out the money bag from the bundle, poured out the copper coins and counted them.And the eight hundred coins almost emptied her purse.
