Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

I bought a few hand stoves and incense burners bit by bit along the shops. I even asked about what plays were performed in the theater in the afternoon, so I spent half a day wandering around.

Carrying the results of their afternoon shopping, the two of them found a nearby restaurant and had dinner in peace. It was getting late and they returned to the inn.

This time, Xiaoliuzi, the clerk of Ruyifang, was very anxious.

He waited and waited in the lobby of Yuelai Inn. When it got dark, he was about to hand over the letter from the innkeeper to the innkeeper when he finally came back.

When Zhou Banxia got off the carriage, he looked behind him and didn't notice that there was a waiter he had met standing in front of the inn. However, when Gu Wenxuan glanced around, he saw someone who looked familiar.

Let’s look at the clothes again?

He reacted immediately.

This is the boy from Ruyifang!
Just as he was about to say hello, the young man was already grinning and running towards the couple excitedly.

However, shopkeeper Hu said in the morning that he would give a reply before tomorrow night.

The implication is that the reply should not be given until tomorrow. Why did you send someone so soon?

Soon, he knew why Xiao Liuzi came.

Shopkeeper Hu's boss, Mrs. Qian, asked Shopkeeper Hu to order a table for him and his wife and deliver it to the inn.

Furthermore, Mrs. Qian has already given an answer regarding the knotting work.

Therefore, shopkeeper Hu asked Xiao Liuzi to inform him that they would have a good rest tonight and that they would not have to go to Ruyifang too early tomorrow, but they would have lunch together.

Send Xiao Liuzi away.

A table full of dishes.

Eight cold dishes, eight hot dishes, and four dim sum dishes.

The five-inch small plates range from shredded red oil bamboo shoots, assorted pickled melons and other cold dishes to plain-cut chicken, jerky, and pickled beef. The seven-inch plates even include shark fins and sea cucumbers.

Look at the bags and boxes of candied pastries piled up on the floor. Have you bought all the pastry shops in Fucheng?
Gu Wenxuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

It seems that Mrs. Qian still wants his wife to embroider some large patterns, but is afraid that she will refuse.

To be honest, he and his wife are really not short of money at the moment.

This is Fucheng. Shangyinhao can immediately exchange ten thousand taels of silver notes into gold leaves and silver ingots in a short period of time.

If it were a small bank account in the county town, it would take most of a day to get it done.

After all, the common people usually use copper plates most, and even serious people cannot find silver. Even in the county, very few people use silver for daily transactions.

Silver is still very valuable.

For example, two pence can buy three eggs, twenty pence for a pound of pork, forty or fifty penny for a big fat chicken, and one stone of white flour for two taels of silver.

It’s really not expensive in the village.

It's just a private school, how much money can be spent in a year.

It's a pity that his wife's eyes light up when she sees that there is money to be made, and sooner or later Mrs. Qian will abduct her into a ditch.

Can embroidery be an easy job?
Many embroiderers become blind before they reach forty.

Don't stay here for long!

Zhou Banxia was not interested in thinking about the meaning of Mrs. Qian's move.

Zuo is just trying to make a face for her in front of her husband. Even if she has intentions, what can she let others do?

Xiao Banxia knows that only by giving up first can you get something. She would rather make less money than get private money that is unknown to the public. How can she not understand the principle of making money in silence.

No matter what the reason was, she couldn't take the imperial examination, so what else could she do except make money.

Now that there are people with good intentions and money to make, why not do it!

These are little things.

It's not Zhou Banxia's boast. She has never suffered much since she was a child.

Unless she is willing, most people can't trick her Zhou Banxia.

What she wants to know most now is how Gu Wenxuan deceived the Zhao family pawnshop into getting a 1 tael silver note this afternoon.

Do not!
It should be a banknote of 700 taels.

In the restaurant before, in order to prevent the partition from having ears and not making any noise, Gu Wenxuan did not want to say anything about what happened that afternoon.

At this time, the two of them tasted the dishes. You looked at me, and I looked at yours. They looked at each other and smiled. In a tacit understanding, one protected and the other put away some of the dishes.

Fortunately, no one in the inn knew that the couple had just returned from dinner. They couldn't afford the table without five taels of silver, but it was just a good time to give it to the family to try.It’s just that the big bowls and plates at home are not enough.

Zhou Banxia simply used the pressure cooker, the pot in the rice cooker, the rice cooker, and even the wok to hold vegetables and soup.

After finishing the collection work, Gu Wenxuan called the waiter to come in.

After two dishes were ordered, the leftovers were put away.

Then I brought hot water, washed up as usual, turned off the lights and went to bed. After getting into bed, I was able to hide from others and whisper loudly.

First floor living room.

When he came in, Gu Wenxuan was still lying on his side.

His wife is naughty again.

It's not like she was standing when she didn't know at first that she could just bring him in.

Just as he was about to speak, he slowly sat up and couldn't help laughing.

There was just a circle of silver ingots and copper coins placed around the couple.

Zhou Banxia stood up in a hurry and said, "Tell me first how you deceived me this afternoon. I'm so curious."

Gu Wenxuan patted her butt, stood up and said with a smile, "It's a long story. Didn't I go into the pawnshop's private room before, so I first took out the purse with a hundred pearls in it..."

Zhou Banxia listened, forgetting for a moment that she originally wanted to listen to Gu Wenxuan telling stories while sorting the silver ingots and coins back into the wooden box.

"... Mainly those eight volumes of drawings. I spent a lot of effort to avoid exposing my handwriting, but I really didn't cut any corners...

Later, I saw that it was almost three or four o'clock, and Zhao Laosan hadn't arrived yet, so I didn't want to wait any longer...

What we are fighting is a psychological war. Whoever has the patience to negotiate the price will do it. "

"Is it that simple?" Zhou Banxia didn't know what to say.

Gu Wenxuan shook his head and smiled, "The key is that one doesn't have a name and the other buys it out.

You have to know whether this is a contract signed, or a contract only transferred to their old Zhao family. "

Zhou Banxia joked, "The waist card is not fake!"

"Hey, why do you look down on your man and me?" Gu Wenxuan stretched, "It's a pity that this badge and the lead can no longer be seen in the light, please put it away."

This is natural.

No need to remind her, she had already planned to lock it in the safe to prevent it from getting mixed up in something one day.

“Actually, all said and done, the Zhao family’s foundation is too weak and there are too few available people.

If it were a shopkeeper like Gao Fu, he might not be able to successfully conclude a deal in the afternoon. "

that's humble.

If it were a pawnshop in Gaofu, wouldn't you be able to cheat?

One routine after another.

First, use pearls twice to lower the opponent's psychological defense, and then use Boss Zhao as a bait.

The acting is really real.

Maybe shopkeeper Zhao thought he had found the truth.

Maybe you still think that you are testing his attitude again and again just for the sake of the baby, trying to judge whether Boss Zhao is a good official based on his attitude!
Gu Wenxuan is happy.

That's right.

That's pretty much it.

Zhou Banxia couldn't help but laugh out loud.

However, the Zhao family is not at a loss. Spending tens of thousands of money and making good use of it to get promoted and make a fortune is not a pipe dream.

but?

To whet my appetite?

You, Lao Gu, are still the most powerful!
