Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 382
Seeing a carousel music box on the booth, the passing little girl's eyes lit up, and she pulled her mother to stop.

"Can I pick it up and have a look?" She pointed.

"Okay." The person inside said.

She picked up the music box, looked back and forth, left and right, turned it upside down, and looked under her eyes, but she didn't see the expected parts.

"Isn't this a battery?"

"No way..."

"Huh?" The little girl looked up at the blonde sister inside.

"……I have no idea."

Hai Xing couldn't handle it, and turned to look at Naruse, "You're here!"

"Didn't you just say it's okay?"

Naruse put down the objects in his hand, stood up and came over, "This is the first one to ask the price."

"I don't understand this."

He shook his head, smiled at the stopped mother and daughter, asked for the music box from the little girl, and studied it.

"Probably……"

Finding that the base could be rotated, he tried to rotate it a few times. As soon as he let go, the music box rang while rotating.

"It's "Fur Elise"!" The little girl said excitedly, turned her head to look at her mother, and then kept staring at him.

"Yes."

Naruse handed her the music box again, and the pink and white carousel slowly turned with the sound of the music until the music stopped abruptly.

"It's not over yet..."

"Try turning around twice more, don't use too much force."

The little girl turned the base until it stopped turning, and then let go, and the music of "Fur Elise" sounded again.

Across the booth, the four people inside and outside did not speak, staring at the carousel until the whole music was played.

"I want..." The little girl looked back at her mother.

"How much does this cost?" Most of the items at the booth had prices marked on them, and this music box happened to be one of the few things that didn't have a price tag.

"Two thousand yen." Naruse said.

"It's so expensive." The little girl's mother frowned.

For [-] yen, you can buy a nice coat at the booth next to it.

"This music box is very delicate and in good condition, almost like a new one." Naruse looked at her, "Even if the children are tired of playing with it, it's pretty nice just to put it in the room as a decoration."

"Well……"

She was a little moved, and her daughter also raised her head at this time. Although she didn't say anything, her eyes were full of expectation.

"Can the price be lower?"

In any case, [-] yen is still a bit expensive.

"I'm just managing the booth for someone else, so I can't make the decision to give you much cheaper... How about [-] yen?"

"Eighteen hundred yen..."

The little girl's mother stared at the music box again, then raised her head and said, "We'll ask for it if it's cheaper."

She looked inside, the blond girl who was at most the age of a high school student turned her head to look at the companion next to her, and the latter frowned, as if he couldn't make up his mind.

"[-] yen, we'll take it." She gave her reserve price.

"[-] yen... okay."

He sighed, and soon smiled again, "Need packing?"

"Just give me a bag."

"Ok."

He took out a thousand-yen bill and a five-hundred-yen coin from the wallet, the boy accepted the money, and the blond girl next to him handed her the bag.

"Thank you for your patronage."

The transaction is completed and both parties are satisfied.

The two got up and sent the mother and daughter away.

"It's really black hearted... Didn't the music box say that if it can be sold for [-] yen, it will make a profit?" Hai Xing said.

"Speak louder so they can hear you."

"..."

Starfish immediately shut up.

When they walked away and she turned back, Naruse had already sat on the small stool inside.

"What a black heart!"

"The price of [-] yen is her own." Naruse said, "I quoted [-] yen just to let her bargain. Who knew she would be satisfied with that price."

Hai Xing pouted, "Who made you bid so high."

"I thought she would cut it in half..." Naruse was also a little puzzled, could it be that they seemed too honest?
"Remember, carousel music box, [-] yen." He said again.

Hai Xing picked up the notebook next to it, and recorded the items and prices that were just sold.

And on this latest record, seven or eight sales records have been left, all of which were sold by her and Naruse.

Chao Yueming went out to scan the goods not long after he opened the stall. To him, it didn't matter whether the things he brought today could be sold or not. What mattered was whether he could receive any good things here.

Compared with visiting the flea market, the experience of setting up a stall is also very interesting for Haixing, not to mention having him by his side...

Then he stood up.

"I'll go out and have a look, you can watch here, and send me a message if you need anything."

"Eh... eh?"

Hai Xing was shocked, "I watched alone?"

"Can't you?"

"no!"

Naruse stopped and looked at her in surprise: "When people come to buy things, you collect the money and give them the things, what's wrong with that?"

"I...I won't bargain. If others come to bargain, I will definitely be cut down." Hai Xing said.

"The things with clearly marked prices on the stalls will be sold as much as they are marked. If there is no price marked, they will be sold at the lowest price given by Mr. Chaoyue."

Looking at the crowd passing by outside, he continued: "If you reach the lowest price and still want to cut it, let them go."

"..."

Let them go!

How easy it is to say!

Starfish only knows that he can't do it.

"I can not……"

Naruse was helpless, "Idiot."

"Idiots are idiots, I can't do it anyway."

Hai Xing also stood up, putting on a posture that she would run if he wanted to leave.

"Then you can pretend to be dumb. When someone comes, just smile and wave your hands without speaking."

"Stop joking... What are you going to do? Can't we wait for Mr. Chaoyue to come back?"

Naruse sighed, but still didn't leave.

"If you don't do anything, just look around and learn how the flea market works."

Hai Xing waited for him to sit down again before sitting down.

"Flea market, isn't it just that everyone comes together to set up a stall?"

"Well, but I want to understand more thoroughly." Naruse said.

Hai Xing was puzzled, "Why do you know this?"

He didn't speak, just looked at the crowd coming and going outside.

Just when she thought he didn't want to answer, Naruse said, "Because I suddenly thought of an idea."

"What's the idea?"

"During the cultural festival, we can also organize a small-scale flea market in the school."

Hai Xing was startled, "Cultural Festival..."

"Well, after all, you can't really show those 'love letters'."

She was startled again: "Love letter?"

"No, it's nothing... Anyway, I'm still thinking about it, and I just have this idea right now."

"Oh... so you're planning to learn from the flea market here."

"Ah."

Naruse nodded, "After all, if you don't practice, you will only have some taken-for-granted ideas in your mind. Only by learning more can you discover unexpected problems under the current experience."

Hai Xing looked at him for a while, then suddenly said: "Then you go."

He also turned to look at her, "Can't you be alone?"

"I can play dumb."

"..."

Naruse laughed.

"Baka."

(ba ka)

After laughing twice, he shook his head again.

"Forget it, wait until Mr. Chaoyue comes back. The rally here will last until evening, it's still early."

She made up her mind, but he said he wanted to stay. Of course, Hai Xing would not object, so she dragged the small stool and moved a little closer to him.

"Am I still a member of the Restoration Department?"

"What?...Forget it."

"I can come and help then."

Naruse didn't speak.

Hai Xing looked at him, "Can't you?"

"No, I was just wondering how you could help."

"..."

Subconsciously, she thought he was laughing at her, but just looking at the way he was thinking, she soon realized that he was serious.

But to figure this out, he had to figure out what he was going to do first.

Before he could figure it out, Chao Yueming finally came back with a big bag and a small bag.

"Big harvest." He said calmly and happily.

"I see."

Naruse and Hai Xing made room for him, but he had no intention of coming in, "I want to go back."

"what?"

"Send these things back." Chao Yueming said, "Come over and continue collecting."

"..."

Going back from here is only a ten-minute drive.

"How many things is Mr. Chaoyue planning to collect, can't you let them go now?" Naruse asked.

"I can't let it go, I even bought a wardrobe."

"..."

Chao Yueming came over to say hello, and went back without asking how the stalls were doing.

"Is shopping Mr. Chaoyue's hobby?"

"...No, it's collecting second-hand items."

　Thanks to the leader of the book friend [Grandpa Sledgehammer], I will add an update tomorrow.
