Space peasant girl: mother dressed as three oil bottles

Chapter 18 In exchange for huge sums of money
This wooden box was made by Gu Li himself.The surroundings were tightly packed with thatch.Otherwise, the bright light of the beads is too obvious, which will make people suspicious.

The light in the side hall itself is relatively dim, and it needs to be lit long ago.However, when Gu Li opened the box, there was already a dazzling light seeping out.When the thatch was removed, the whole house was already as bright as day.

The man covered his mouth almost immediately.His family has been running a pawn shop for generations, and since he was a child, he has seen many treasures of all kinds.For example, there are several boxes of Ye Mingzhu.But it is indeed the first time to see such a color and size.

The middle-aged man was also shocked, but after all, he had more experience and soon returned to normal.

"Dare to ask, little lady, what price do you plan to pay for this pearl?"

Gu Li slowly put away the beads and said, "That depends on what price you, Babaozhai, are offering me?"

From the reaction of the two just now, Gu Li had already guessed seven or eight points in his heart.It seems that this bead is far more valuable than I estimated.

"Look, how about this number?" The middle-aged man tugged at the sleeve of the young man, and then stretched out five fingers.

Gu Li sneered: "Since you are not sincere, then don't waste everyone's time."

"Wait, little lady!" The young man called out to her,

"I would like to ask my little lady, is the origin of this bead innocent?"

"Of course it's innocent. It wasn't stolen or robbed. It was obtained by accident in the mountains."

Seeing that his tone was sincere, Gu Li answered the truth.

The middle-aged man next to him rolled his eyes when he heard the words. This is really lucky.I got such a priceless treasure by accident.

Seeing her answer like this, the young man breathed a sigh of relief,

"To tell you the truth, my lady, I really want this bead very sincerely, because it is related to my future. But you also need to know that Babaozhai is the only one with the ability to pay a high price. Of course, you You can also spend some effort to go to the county seat, but let me remind the little lady,

The pawn shop in the nearest county town is also run by my family, so I'm afraid the price won't be higher than mine.Even if you change to another place, not to mention the long distance, this world is not peaceful.It is difficult for the little lady to keep her property safe with a pile of silver by her side. "

"Then what price can you offer?"

After thinking about it, what he said was true, so Gu Li simply cut to the chase.

"2000 taels of silver! It's all the taels I can come up with."

The man went straight to the bottom.When he saw this bead today, he knew that the opportunity had come.Last time, because of my carelessness, I was caught in the wrong place by the boy from the second room, and I sued the old lady all of a sudden, and then I was assigned to this branch in a remote village to be the head of the shop.

I have been staying for almost two months, but I have not received a single expensive item.This will be the old lady's [-]th birthday soon, if he presents this luminous pearl, it will surely make the old lady happy and recall him back.Only then would it be possible for him to be the master of the family and inherit the family property.

So this bead, he is bound to get it.

When the middle-aged man heard the words of the young chief, his eyes widened.He really didn't expect that the master would actually exchange all his wealth for this bead.Is this price too high?

Gu Li has already weighed in his heart.

After all, the county seat is far away, and in the age of war and chaos, it is hard to guarantee that there will be no bandits in the middle.Although she is good at martial arts, she can't beat four hands with two fists. For the sake of the old, weak and young at home, she must not make any mistakes.

Besides, for such a large amount of money, the county will definitely give you a silver ticket. This silver ticket is easy to carry, but it is not easy to exchange it!But if you don't exchange the bank notes, if you pull them back so ostentatiously, you may not live in peace.A few chickens can attract a gangster like Shao Xiaowen, with such a large sum of money, I am afraid that the whole family will not have a peaceful life.

Right now, the placement of this money is an imminent matter.

Gu Li thought for a while, and then said: "2000 taels plus this shop!

Shops like this usually have secret rooms for storing valuables or large quantities of silver.If you can own it, then you have nothing to worry about.

"make a deal!"

The young chief only hesitated for a moment, then readily agreed.

This shop doesn't make any money at all, and the reason why it is still open is only to collect some treasures and use them for circulation in other semicolons.Right now, the baby has been received, and it doesn't matter whether it can be opened or not.

Gu Li felt a little dazed.It seems that this money came too easily.Babaozhai earns a small amount of money in wealthy families, but for a farmer like Mrs. Shao, it is enough to eat and drink for a lifetime.

Moreover, there are 2000 taels of silver!
"Thank you, little lady. If I have a chance to see you again in the future, I will definitely repay your kindness today."

Holding the wooden box, the young principal smiled happily, handed the house deed and the key to Gu Li, and then got into a carriage with the middle-aged man and left.

The 2000 taels of silver were neatly stacked in two large boxes, and there were some miscellaneous items in the rest.Gu Li roughly glanced at it, then took a wooden hairpin carved from nanmu and closed the secret room.

When the young principal left, he told her that this Babaozhai had already been managed by the government office, so there was no need to worry about safety in the town.

The small town is not a bustling area, and the three religions and streams in circulation are not too noisy, so the folk customs are still good.

After checking the doors and windows, Gu Li locked the door and left.

Babaozhai, which usually doesn't close until dark, locked the door in broad daylight, which aroused a lot of discussion from the surrounding people.

Right now the purse is bulging, but Gu Li told himself to keep a low profile.The road must be walked step by step.Right now, he looks very rich.However, don't be prepared for danger in times of peace.

If you want to keep the triplets completely out of the track of the future villain, you must take pains to train them.

If they are older, they will be sent to school.I heard before that the schools in the town cost five taels of silver for each session of repairs, which ordinary farmers couldn't afford.There were three in her family, and it was 15 taels at once.Then after passing the Tongsheng exam, he will go to the county seat. From this point of view, the 2000 taels of silver will be empty sooner or later.

Anyway, I have a lot of capital in my hand, so I have to think about the future and plan as soon as possible.

Now that there is no shortage of money, Gu Li no longer has so many scruples when shopping.

I bought a few thin quilts and planned to make beds so that the little ones can sleep better.I went to the butcher's stall and chopped a few catties of meat, and bought a fat catfish.Although the things in her hand were full, when she saw someone selling milk-producing ewe goats, she still bought one for a tael of silver.

The triplets have never drank breast milk since they were born, and their health is not good.Coupled with the lack of food for the past two years, he is even thinner.This goat's milk is rich in nutrients and will surely make them strong.

Seeing that it was getting late, Gu Li bought ten big buns from the meat bun shop around the corner, so that he didn't have to rush back to cook at noon.

When she arrived at the place agreed with Shao Fugui, she found that people and cars were already waiting there.

Gu Li was a little embarrassed, and hurried forward to apologize: "I'm sorry Brother Fugui, I kept you waiting for so long!"
