Chapter 63 Pawn (Part )

These days, Chen Kee Pawn Shop has collected a lot of good things.

It’s not Chen Acai who is gloating over the misfortune, nor is he blaming the Chen family for taking advantage of the situation, it’s really because everyone is trying to survive.

Those treasures that cannot be eaten or drunk cannot be taken away, or those that need to be eaten but cannot be eaten. If they are not exchanged for money for first aid, what can be done with those treasures now?
Besides, these are the rules of pawn shops selling at low prices, can he still stop it?

These are the people who have taken refuge in the south due to the war in recent days. Chen Acai can only say that the real people are not showing their faces.

Some people look shabby on their faces, but when they pull out their sleeves, they find that there are quite a lot of old things at the bottom of the box!
"I have recently collected a lot of the rare copies of some famous artists that my master likes. When they are packed up and I meet your master next month, this will be my first one~"

While he was carefully wiping the jade ring on his thumb, Chen Ahcai began to mutter in a low voice.

When he was young, he was sent to the south because he made some mistakes, and he could not see his master's family all day long.

Unexpectedly, when people reach middle age, the whole family moves to the south. Their status as shopkeepers who used to work in the south suddenly rises.

Thinking about letting himself go to Yao Lin to meet his master next month, Chen Ah Cai couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts.

The master is still young and has not yet married a bride. If...

Just as he was thinking about this, he raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of a pair of grandparents walking in from the door.

It's just that the person dressed is not from here, that is Nan Ming who fled from the north.

Dressing like this is really embarrassing, but there are rules for entering the city these days, and Chen Acai doesn't mean to completely despise the other party.

However, Chen Ah Cai still couldn't help but curl his lips. He was about to get up and call the waiter who had just been sent out to make tea, but his eyes suddenly fell on something in the hands of the approaching girl.

Yo~
Brown sugar, red beans and red dates?
He could tell at a glance that the carefully wrapped oil paper and the red seal with writing on it were top-quality goods from the Zhou Family Dry Goods Store in the city.

It turns out that the real person doesn’t show his face~
Putting away the contemptuous expression just now, Chen Acai straightened his body, put on a false smile on his face and said to Mei Qian and Mrs. Mei who came over: "What do you want to pawn, Madam?"

Mei Qian screamed inwardly when she heard the name of the shopkeeper.

Mei Qian remembered that she had just observed this man looking at them with his eyes, and now she was a little surprised by the sudden change in his attitude. At the same time, she couldn't help but admire the brilliance of her breasts.

"Are you the shopkeeper here?"

Mrs. Mei did not immediately answer the other party's words, but instead showed a picky look on her face.

Chen Ah Cai was not angry when he saw this and recognized himself as the shopkeeper.

"I don't know what to call the old lady?"

"My surname is Liu."

Well, Mrs. Mei, whose real name is Li Shuangshuang, made up a fake surname for herself.

Mei Qian was studying hard while carrying food and wooden piles.

"I don't know why Mrs. Liu came here to..."

Chen Ahcai was testing the situation while staring at Mrs. Mei carefully. Under the gaze of the other party, Mrs. Mei was not nervous and took out a black brocade bag from her arms.

As soon as the brocade bag came out, Chen Acai's eyes were glued to it.

This fabric is good fabric, like the one from Yuzhou.

At this moment, he heard the clear jingling sound of the ring coming from the golden brocade bag again. Chen Ahcai immediately looked seriously and took it with both hands very carefully.

After opening it and taking a look, Chen Ahcai didn't show any surprise, but after all, his breathing had slowed down a beat.

"Are these really yours, Mrs. Liu?"

"They're all my coffin books, what's wrong? Is there a problem?" Mrs. Mei seemed to be irritated and asked angrily, "Are you suspecting that this thing of mine came from a bad origin?"

Mei Qian: "..."

So what if?

Mei Qian and the others didn't know the origins of the jewelry they had ripped off from the soldiers of the Western Army. She just took them out to pawn them off, and Mei Qian was a little afraid of being recognized.

"When the Xirong soldiers broke into the city, I didn't have time to clean up anything at home. I just brought a few coffins with me, and even asked my daughter-in-law to sew a small package out of silk and keep it with me every day. You... you don't know what's good and what's good! "

After saying that, Mrs. Mei glared at Chen Ah Cai and wanted to take it back. Chen Ah Cai immediately admitted her mistake and smiled, "Old lady, calm down and calm down."

Chen Acai carefully examined the brocade bag in his hands. The embroidery work on this brocade bag can only be said to be average. The embroiderers from big families are better than this.

It sounds like Chen Acai, the old lady’s daughter-in-law in front of me, is a little clearer again.
Generally speaking, ladies from wealthy families don't expect to become famous as female celebrities, so if they can do so, it's considered good.

Mei Qian didn't know what the middle-aged shopkeeper with a mustache similar to Yu Hai's was thinking about. At this time, she finally remembered why the little bag looked familiar. This brocade bag seems to be the fabric of Li Baizhou's clothes.

what!
Mei Qian suddenly remembered that Li Baizhou was still wearing her eldest brother's linen clothes when he left.

Li Baizhou didn't wear his own one, so Mei Qian thought it was taken away, but it turned out that this one wasn't taken away either, and it ended up in her grandma's hands, right?
Her eyes fell on the cloth bag made of good material, and she wanted to ask her when she made this bag.

At this time, Chen Ahcai smiled again and said: "The materials of the old lady's things are indeed good. This mutton-fat jade bracelet and silver hairpin..."

"Shopkeeper, you can see it clearly. It is clearly a jade bracelet. When I got married, my father specially bought it for me from the jade merchant on the Annan border and made a pair of it for me.

Also, even though it’s a silver hairpin, there’s a touch of green on it~
As a shopkeeper, you have to be responsible for what you say. What is worth thousands of gold has turned into trash in your mouth? "

Mei Qian saw that when her mother said something about jadeite, Mei Qian first put on a straight face to prevent her flaws from being exposed. Then she looked at the shopkeeper opposite and saw that the man didn't look panicked or shy at all. On the contrary, he was Admit generously that you said something wrong.

For a moment, Mei Qian felt cold sweat break out from her back.

Yes, the other party was obviously suspicious of the origin of her breast jewelry.

If she followed the other party and said something about mutton-fat jade, if she couldn't keep it, she would be imprisoned by the other party for stealing other people's belongings.

In serious cases, you may be sent to the government;
It's light, maybe someone will take it away directly, and they will be dumb and eat Coptis chinensis.

But what she just said to those jewelry was very familiar. Mei Qian, who didn't know what kind of jewelry her nipples were, now listened to her nipples and Whatever the shopkeeper said, I subconsciously felt that what she said was right.

How is this like those roosters and dog thieves who only know that gold is valuable but don’t know why it is valuable?

At this moment, the other party believed Mrs. Mei's words and invited Mrs. Mei to the inner VIP room to work out the price. Mei Qian and she also received a cup of fragrant tea and a small plate of exquisite snacks.

Fortunately, Mei Qian was quite reserved and only tasted the snacks briefly and drank some tea.

This action fell in the eyes of Mrs. Mei and Chen Acai. The former was very satisfied. She was indeed her smartest granddaughter.

The latter had some new speculations about the origin of Mrs. Mei's grandson.

Despite her fierce temper, this old lady doesn't look like the young lady she once said she once was, but looking at her granddaughter's reserved movements, she doesn't look like a small businessman either.

It gave him a feeling of family poverty. Moreover, the old lady had previously said that this was a book to sell her coffin. I think she had a lot of dowry when she was young~
As a result, Chen Acai and Chen Acai started raising prices with more confidence.

Mei Qian sat there and let herself go. She did not listen carefully to the conversation between her mother and the man. She was afraid that when she listened to the two of them talking, she would show some unseen expression on her face, which would affect the overall situation of her mother. Broken clean.

However, Mei Qian still kept feeling that her milk was real.

Mei Qian also had some doubts about the true origin of her milk.

Is she really just an ordinary farm girl?
With her knowledge and actions, it's no wonder her mother dislikes her father.

Just like this, Mei Qian even doubted whether her father was born from her milk.

【Host host~】

System Xiaomei suddenly came online with a friendly tone, which made Mei Qian wary in her heart.

【what? 】

[This plate of lotus cake has been identified by this system and has met the inclusion requirements. The host can upload it~]

Mei Qian took a look at the lotus cake that Xiao Mei had been thinking about. It was beautifully shaped, but there was too much butter. One bite was greasy and the other was sweet. However, compared to what Mei Qian had made before and what was uploaded to the system, this lotus cake was indeed worthy of the system. Heartbeat.

[I can’t upload them all, my grandma is “talking about big business”, so I can’t do anything to help my grandma, just a small piece at most. 】

Xiaomei didn't understand what Mei Qian said.

[What does your grandma’s “business talk” have to do with you eating lotus cakes? 】

[That’s a big deal. 】

Mei Qian broke down all the preparations she had made, the inadvertent consequences for her identity, and the excuses she had made to deal with the shopkeeper who didn't know where.

[I can’t act like I’ve never seen anything in the world, it’s easy to make people suspicious. 】

After listening to what Mei Qian said, Xiao Mei felt that her CPU was being burned.

[You...are all humans so complicated? 】

 Xiaomei: I met a host whose mind was like briquettes.

  Mei Qian: I met a grandmother whose county swallows were as good as briquettes.

  Mrs. Mei: The descendants are more solid-eyed than the other_(:3 ∠)_
