Rich and wishful

Chapter 210
The father and son of the Kuang family have already washed and changed their clothes, and they are talking with the second son Kuang in the main room.

"When someone comes, you have to be careful and wait on them. Don't say anything that offends others. These two masters seem to be generous. If you can climb up, then you don't have to worry about the beads you have worked so hard to pick." The good ones were taken to the fish market, and those good ones will no longer have to worry about selling. Pearl is a girl who will grow up in two years, and it is not suitable to sell pearls in such a publicity."

Kuang Lao Er carefully told his youngest son, "After all, Zhu'er solicited this matter, and I don't know how much this merchant can handle, so I didn't let your elder brother come over to get involved. If they want to The amount of beads is large, and you can help your elder brother collect the beads at that time."

"Father, don't worry, I'm not that foolish and won't offend people." Father Kuang nodded.

Kuang Lao Er finally felt relieved, he was afraid that the youngest son would not know the importance, and the benefits of having such a merchant come to collect the beads directly, among other things, it would be a shame to take those good beads to their shop for a price The pressure was too hard. When he was young, he once met a rich and powerful businessman from other places. The price of the good beads he bought was five or six times the price given in the shop.

It's a pity that the merchant stopped coming after a few years.Over the years, he has always told his sons that he kept those good-looking and large beads because he wanted to have something to take out when he met that kind of big merchant again, but it's a pity that big merchants are rare.

Just when the Kuang family was looking forward to the Prime Minister frequently, Liu Heng and An Ruyi finally appeared.What the two of them did not bring to the door empty-handed were all practical things. In addition to a lot of beautifully packaged pastries, candied fruit, dried meat, tea, wine and other food, they also brought them a lot of cotton cloth of different colors and patterns.

The Kuang family was shocked when they saw it.

After exchanging pleasantries, the two were invited to the table, and Kuang Zhu'er and Kuang's mother quickly brought out the food. An Ruyi saw that most of the food was seafood, so she couldn't help smiling at Kuang Zhu'er.

After the meal, the three Kuang family brothers, Kuang Mu, and Kuang Zhu'er all left, and only Liu Heng, An Ruyi, Kuang Er, and Kuang Fu were left in the main room.

The four of them sat on both sides, and the second brother Kuang looked at Liu Heng and An Ruyi probingly, feeling a little unsure in his heart. It is said that they were the ones who came to collect pearls from the Kuang family, so why did they come here the other way?Even if you want to bring something to your door, there is no reason to take so many and expensive things?
"Why do you two come to the door with such a heavy gift? How can we live in our hearts?"

"Yeah, I'm here right now, what else do you bring, you should take it back later!" Father Kuang looked uncomfortable, he was very uncomfortable accepting things from others for no reason.

"Actually, we came here today for something other than buying pearls." Liu Heng smiled slightly, "We didn't come to Quguo this time to buy pearls, in fact, we traveled all the way. Come. I happened to come across the fish market in your place, and after shopping around, I bought a lot of pearls, and found that only your family’s Pearl is the most honest despite her young age.”

"Aren't you pearl merchants?" Kuang Laoer and Kuang Fu were taken aback for a moment, and the disappointment was immediately revealed in their expressions.

"Didn't you say that your family has many jewelry shops?" Kuang Lao Er murmured.

"You misunderstood me. I said that we didn't come here specially to buy pearls, but it didn't mean that we stopped buying pearls. In fact, we will not only buy them now, but will also come to buy them regularly in the future. It is true that our family has a jewelry store, but Usually there are dedicated people to take care of it. Now that we have met, as long as the quality of the pearls is good and the price is suitable for us, we will be happy to continue looking for you in the future." Liu Heng saw that his words had caused a misunderstanding and quickly explained.

Kuang Lao Er and Kuang Fu breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked cautiously, "I don't know what you are asking for?"

"It's actually very simple. One is that our husband and wife want to follow you to the sea to see the process of your pearl hunting." Liu Heng said, and then he took out the clam shell wrapped with asparagus, "If it's convenient, we can go with you tomorrow." Go. Second, this kind of seaweed is very popular with us, I don’t know where you picked it, why don’t we go there tomorrow.”

"This seaweed?" Kuang's father looked at it for a moment, apparently he had no impression of the seaweed wrapped around the clam shell, he thought for a while and told the truth: "The pearls that Zhu'er sells today are all picked recently. We have changed two places recently, so it’s hard to say which one this one is in.”

"No problem, why don't you show us both places tomorrow."

"It's not difficult. If you like, we can help you pull out a few. But what's so good about picking pearls?" Father Kuang shook his head and said, "The sea is very risky. If there is a big storm, the nobleman will be surprised." What should I do?"

"It is said that life and death depend on fate and wealth and honor, even if we encounter danger at sea, we will never blame you." Liu Heng smiled and refused Kuang's father's request to help pull the dragon's beard.

"You don't need to bother with this seaweed. We'll just go and have a look tomorrow. I don't know if you still have pearls in your home. If you have any, we can buy them together. If you want, you can keep all the pearls you collect in the future." Wait for us to collect it."

Liu Heng thought about it and took out an ingot of ten taels of gold and put it on the table, "This is ten taels, it's considered a deposit."

Kuang Lao Er and Kuang Fu's eyes widened when they saw the ingot of gold. They had never seen such a large ingot of gold in their entire lives. One tael of gold and ten taels of silver, doesn't that mean that what is in front of them is 100 taels of silver?

"No, I don't want so many. Take it back quickly, and you don't need to pay the deposit. How many beads do you need?"

Kuang Fu stammered and waved his hands again and again, his movements were exactly the same as Kuang Zhuer's, as expected, like a father, like a daughter.Seeing that An Ruyi gave a "puchi" smile.

Liu Heng knew what An Ruyi was smiling and smiled, "Our husband and wife are traveling around, and the return date is undecided. I don't know when we will come back next time. Giving a deposit first is to make you feel at ease. The shortest is half a year, and the longest is one If we don't come by the end of the year, then this ingot of gold will belong to you."

Kuang's father wanted to evade again, but Kuang's second child hurriedly kicked his feet and said first, "If that's the case, then we'll take care of it for you."

Then Kuang Er said to his son again: "San'er, don't you still have those big beads you kept, why don't you hurry and take them out for the nobleman to see."

Father Kuang slapped his head, "Yes, yes, yes." He apologized, turned and went into the inner room, and took out a small fir box after a while.
