Chapter 207

"Your shop is very big, can you collect a lot of pearls?" The little girl looked at Liu Heng and An Ruyi expectantly.

An Ruyi nodded.

"That's great. From then on, we will sell all our pearls to you, okay? My name is Kuang Zhuer, Master and Madam. However, my father, mother, and three elder brothers are all going to sea at this time. Please hurry up." You can only come back after dark, can you wait?"

Kuang Zhu'er was afraid that the two of them would leave impatiently, so she hurriedly said, "Why don't I take you to my house to identify the door first, and I will tell my family at night, you come early tomorrow morning, you come tomorrow I'm sure there will be a lot of pearls in there."

"Since they are not here, don't worry, you open all these pearls, we will collect them directly, and you won't have to bring them with you." An Ruyi pointed to the clam shell that had not been pried open in front of Kuang Zhuer. .

"Ok."

Kuang Zhu'er responded with a happy face, and the movements of her hands were much faster.She felt that she had gotten lucky today. First, she hadn’t sold many pearls for a long time, and the people who came to ask her wanted to lower the price to six taels. She didn’t want to sell and was pointed and scolded. G.

Conscience of heaven and earth, the price of the pearls sold by their family is actually not that high, and some others sell them for 11 taels of silver a bucket, which is not as big as theirs.

Seeing that the fish market was halfway through, she had only sold two buckets of pearls. She thought she would return them today, but unexpectedly the God of Wealth came.

Liu Heng and An Ruyi stood there watching Kuang Zhu'er's fingers flying and swiftly prying the clam shells, perhaps because of her undivided attention, she finished prying the small pile of clam shells in less than a cup of tea. An Ruyi wanted to calculate the price according to the price of a bucket, but the little girl became red-eyed and insisted on only charging her eight taels of silver.

Facing the little girl who is unwilling to "take advantage", both Liu Heng and An Ruyi have a good impression.They had bought a lot of pearls before, and the pearl sellers saw that they were well-dressed but not from the local area. All of them opened their mouths, and the highest price was 100 taels.

In fact, 100 taels for a bucket of pearls is really not expensive. If you buy pearls and inlay them on jewelry, you will get back far more than this price, but the two of you have spiritual sense. The price of pearls here is only the price of a bucket between ten taels to twelve or thirty taels.Only the ones with particularly good quality and large sizes can be sold for more than one hundred taels.And that kind of pearls are generally not traded in the fish market.

Kuang Zhu'er sold all the pearls, hid the money, packed all the clam shells in a sack, and put them on a wheelbarrow beside her.Then I tidied up the furniture such as stools and small tables, and finally fixed everything with ropes, then clapped my hands and said to Liu Heng and An Ruyi with a smile, "Okay, let's go, master and madam. "

Along the way, An Ruyi and Kuang Zhuer chatted as they walked, and soon found out the details of their family.Kuang Zhu'er is 12 years old this year. Apart from her parents, there are three older brothers in her family.None of them have a family yet.

The Kuang family has lived in this town for generations, and their ancestors have been fishing for pearls for a living. The three older brothers followed their father to fish for pearls when they were only eleven or twelve years old.

The Kuang family has a small boat of their own, and if she hadn't encountered the fish market today, she would have gone to sea with her parents.Sometimes the whole family will not come back when they are at sea, as long as they bring pots and pans, and find an isolated island in the sea at night, they can make do for a few days.

Walked and chatted, and it took a quarter of an hour to get to the place.Kuang Zhu'er pointed to a small courtyard that had just entered and said to the two: "My home is here."

Opening the door with the key, Kuang Zhu'er enthusiastically led Liu Heng and An Ruyi into the house. The two of them looked intently. There were several kinds of vegetables planted on both sides of the small courtyard against the wall, such as leeks, celery, cucumbers, etc. The growth is excellent.There are no chickens and ducks in the yard, but there are a lot of clams to dry.

Kuang Zhu'er looked at the clams drying in the eyes of the two of them, and couldn't help laughing shyly.

"These are all dried and sold, and the leftovers can be eaten at home. Whether it is used for soup or stir-fried, it is delicious. Why don't you stay for lunch, and I will give you Cook it and eat it?"

An Ruyi looked at Liu Heng, who nodded slightly.An Ruyi smiled at Kuang Zhu'er; "Then let's try your skills."

As she said that, she took out an ingot of ten taels of silver and put it in Kuang Zhuer's hand, "Let's use this as the capital of ****."

"No, no, no, I want to treat you to eat, no money is required." Kuang Zhuer blushed and waved her hands repeatedly.

"Then you invite us for lunch, and we will come back to have an interview with your parents in the evening, so we can invite you, okay? It's just that I have to trouble you to get it, but I don't know if you are willing or not? Is the money enough? How to use it?" An Ruyi was full of smiles, looking at the child, she knew that the family couldn't be wrong.It is also a good choice to come here often to buy pearls in the future.

"I am willing. These silvers are enough, don't need so much, five taels is enough, and there is probably leftovers for five taels. You can just give me five taels." Kuang Zhuer felt reasonable after hearing this, so she left He refused, but seriously took out five taels of silver from his body, and handed it to An Ruyi for her to take it back.

"If there is any leftover, it will be considered as your hard work. When the time comes, you will have to buy things again, and you will have to wash and cook so hard. How are we embarrassed? You are not allowed to evade, and if you evade, we will not buy pearls from you. " An Ruyi stopped her, and looked at her small face, which was tanned a little but couldn't hide her delicacy, which made her very pleasing to the eye.

"Thank you, Master and Madam, please sit down and rest first."

Kuang Zhu'er thought about it for a while and didn't continue to refuse. She graciously moved two benches and a small table in the yard, and quickly went to pick a few fresh and tender cucumbers and washed them clean. The basin was filled and placed in front of the two of them, and after pouring two more bowls of water, he said to the two of them, "I'll be back soon after I go out."

Before she finished speaking, she went straight out of the yard like a gust of wind, leaving the two strangers who had just met at home so confidently.

"She's not afraid that we'll steal her property and run away?" An Ruyi couldn't help laughing, she couldn't help but let go of her senses to look, and she also wondered what Kuang Zhuer was doing.

Kuang Zhu'er first ran all the way to a small courtyard a few rooms away, poked her head in and called out: "Grandfather."
