peasant girl

Chapter 560, the strong eat the weak

Since he couldn't help, Zhu Xiao didn't bother.

"Grandpa!"

"Ok?"

"Let's find a place to buy clothes, and take a look at the houses nearby. Let's find a place to stay, and then buy some things to visit your old friends. What do you think?"

Old Man Meng nodded.

From the beginning of following Zhu Xiao, I can fill my stomach and don't need to sleep in the open.

Especially now that Xiao Zhu has a big belly and the weather is very cold, he really should find a place to settle down.

Although Zhu Xiao lost his memory, his mind was still there, so he took old man Meng to the pawn shop.

He took off the gold bracelet and put it on the counter, "Please take a look, how much silver can this gold bracelet be worth?"

"Dead or alive?" the shopkeeper asked.

I took a look at the gold bracelet, and it was excellent both in terms of color and style.

"Damn it!"

"..."

The shopkeeper looked at the gold bracelet, "Ten taels!"

Zhu Xiao laughed out loud, and reached out to the shopkeeper, "Give me back the gold bracelet, I'll go to another pawnshop to have a look!"

"what?"

The shopkeeper was a little taken aback, "That's ten taels more?"

"..."

Zhu Xiao smiled, "No need!"

Although there is only one gold bracelet, and it is pure gold, regardless of its shape or weight, it is worth 200 to [-] taels.

Actually ten taels, 20 taels, do you think she is a fool?
Although this Wucheng city is mixed with good and evil people, the price of any good things will drop here, but it will not drop so sharply.

"Ma'am, the maximum is 30 taels. If you don't believe me, go to another place to see. I'm afraid there is no more than what my family gives!"

"..."

Zhu Xiao didn't say a word, but reached out and took the gold bracelet back.

He took old man Meng out of the pawn shop.

"Grandfather, does this place really eat people without spit out bones?"

"That's true. If you were outside, there would be a lot of people clamoring for 200 taels and 300 taels of your bracelet. But here, it will definitely be greatly discounted. But this pawn shop has kept the price down too low!"

"Don't be in a hurry, let me see what you can buy with a tael of silver in Wucheng!"

She still has more than a dozen taels of silver in her hand, so it doesn't matter if this gold bracelet is appropriate or not.

Ask for directions first.

"Well, I haven't been here for so many years, and I don't know what it's like here!"

The two walked around the street, only to find that the silver here is really useful, because there is no silver, more for coolies, buns cost one penny, steamed buns cost two, one tael of silver can buy a thousand One steamed bun, two thousand steamed buns, can last for a long time.

"Then go and see the house!"

When the two arrived at the brokerage firm, Zhu Xiao explained his purpose.

"Want to buy a house? How many people live there?" the shopkeeper of the brokerage firm asked enthusiastically.

"For three or four people, it is best to have a small courtyard, and the one with a pavement in front is the best!"

The shopkeeper of the brokerage shop thought for a while before saying, "I really have a place here. It is in a triangle, with a small river behind it. The yard is next to the small river, and it is convenient to wash clothes. The most important thing is that there are two shops in front of the shop. There is a kitchen, behind the kitchen is a place for people to live, and there is a well, no matter what, it is extremely good!"

Zhu Xiao listened and thought it was not bad.

After thinking about it, he said, "How much money will it cost?"

"20 taels!"

"Can it be exchanged for something?"

"Yes you can!"

Zhu Xiao asked the shopkeeper of the brokerage firm to take them to have a look, but she is very satisfied with your house, especially there is a side door, enter from the alley, and the carriage can go directly to the backyard. If she doesn't want to open a shop, she can also rent the front shop. go out.

There is a room next to the yard at the back, and Zhu Xiao thought it was very good no matter what he looked at, so he asked the shopkeeper of the brokerage firm, "We don't have a household registration, how do you think we can buy this house?"

He took out another gold bracelet and pushed it in front of the shopkeeper of the brokerage firm, "Is this bracelet enough to arrange everything properly?"

The shopkeeper picked up the gold bracelet, looked at it, and laughed, "Enough is enough, has the lady decided what to call her? If she has figured it out, the household registration and house can be transferred to the lady's name in at most two days! "

The shopkeeper has a wild nature, and when people call him Mr. Hu, he is usually ruthless and merciless, and his relatives don't recognize him.

But although Zhu Xiao's face was a bit dirty, she was quite dignified. The most important thing was that the gold bracelet she took out was really well made, and most people couldn't afford it.

Looking at her accidentally exposed wrist, and the two imperial green jade bracelets on it, it can be seen that the origin is not simple.

Many people came to Wucheng, not only because they were dispatched to the frontier, but also to avoid hunting, or other things.

Hu Sanye also thought in his heart.

A woman, who is still pregnant with a child, can be regarded as a cheerful person. She took a fancy to this house, asked the price, and took out a gold bracelet.

"Zhu Xiao, thank you shopkeeper Hu for walking around a little bit, I'm in trouble!"

Zhu Xiao responded decently, and her tone of voice was no different from that of Wucheng.

Zhu Xiao was also a little surprised.

Along the way, wherever she went, she knew the local dialect almost immediately, as if she had learned it on purpose.

"Is Madam literate?"

"Know it!"

Mr. Hu looked at Zhu Xiao, and then took another high look.

In fact, who doesn't want to get out of this place seriously and go back to their hometown.

Although he is not a good person, he has always formed good karma, hoping that someone can take his family out.

The woman in front of him, from the way he looked at people, must have come from either rich or noble.

Mainly because of her imposing manner and her eyes, her words and deeds are always convincing, and she dare not bully her casually.

"That's very good, the lady writes down the name, and I will get things done sooner!" Hu Sanye said, and handed the gold bracelet back to Zhu Xiao, "Madam put this gold bracelet away first, and I will take care of it later." , come take the bracelet again!"

"Shopkeeper Hu, Grandpa and I have just come to Wucheng, and we have nowhere to stay. I don't know if you have that kind of mother and child in your hands. They know martial arts. I have an important guard here!"

"..."

Hu Sanye glanced at Zhu Xiao, "There are people like this, but you still need to choose by your wife. In Wucheng, people are the most worthless!"

Because they were all dispatched here and became pariahs, but human life was the least valuable.

"I want to make friends with Madam, so I can count them together in this house. Madam can choose from me when I have time!"

Many people sell themselves just to have something to eat.

You don't even need to give money, you just need to give food.

And those who can obtain household registration, build houses in the countryside, and buy land are considered good citizens.

So everyone wants to have a household registration and be a good citizen, but they don't have any skills, which is a bit difficult.

He has some friendship with the county magistrate, and if he buys a house from him, as long as the price is reasonable, household registration is not a problem.

"Shopkeeper Hu, I want to ask a question!"

"Huh? Ma'am, please tell me!"

"If there is no household registration, what will happen in Wucheng?"

Mr. Hu looked at Zhu Xiao, thought for a while, and said, "Ma'am, have you seen those little beggars outside? No matter how rich those people were once, when they come here, the weak prey on the strong, and without household registration, you don't even have the qualifications to buy a land. Don't talk about finding a place to build a house, settle down!"

"In Wucheng, what many people are fighting for is to have a household registration and become a good citizen!"
