Another World Farmer's Story of Farming

Chapter 61 Pawnshop
"Okay, let's just stop here, daughter-in-law of the Sun family, I will trouble you this time!" Lizheng's wife got out of the car and said to Mrs. Sun's family, and walked at the fork in the road just before entering the town!

Bai Xiaoyu also found out on the way that the Sun family's aunt was going to deliver some cut clothes. The head of the Sun family is a tailor, who usually does some work, and those who are in the town have to be delivered by herself. Naturally, the cost will definitely be Compared with the country people in these ten miles and eight villages, they are a little more expensive!
As for Lizheng's daughters-in-law, some of them want to go shopping in the street, buy something, or sell something, which is nothing new!
Bai Xiaoyu is not in the same direction as them, but it is also not in the same direction as the Sun family's. Instead, it turns to the middle street. The shops there are not like the kind of local products and agricultural by-products that Lizheng's daughter-in-law and the others shop. Instead, there are some storefronts, such as restaurants, rice stores, and ready-to-wear stores. Naturally, there are also Bai Xiaoyu and Liu Zijun's target, pawnshops!

The two bid farewell to everyone, and finally walked towards Fan's pawnshop side by side!

The Fan family's pawn shop is not big, but it is the only one in the town, so of course they have seen a lot of rural things, but the price they give is quite reasonable. It is said that they have connections, even in the county. In Fucheng, there are stores!
The entrance of the pawn shop was simple, and there was no place for reception. There was only a window open, and there was only one person sitting inside. Although the entrance was not deserted, it was still inferior to the crowded jewelry store next door.

However, a pawnshop like this is the kind that has been open for a year, so naturally it doesn't care about these!

At this time, there was another man who came with Bai Xiaoyu and Liu Zijun, and stood aside with a calm face, quietly staying in front of Bai Xiaoyu and Liu Zijun, waiting for the person at the front to complete the transaction!

There were only these three sellers present, and the person who was still trading in the front was a middle-aged woman, dressed in elegant and luxurious clothes, she really didn't look like someone who came here to pawn things!

The old man sitting inside is the court obeisance of this pawnshop.

The so-called Chaofeng is the person who appraises and appraises at the pawnshop.Due to the height of the counter, the person who came to pawn the goods had to hold the goods up to the clerk as if "going up to worship the holy", and the name "chaofeng" may have come from this.

Originally, there should be other people in a pawnshop besides Chaofeng, but it may be because the pawnshop here is relatively small, so besides this old man, no one else has been seen yet!

In front of him, Chao Feng was holding the things that the middle-aged woman brought up with his hands, rubbing them carefully, his eyes were uncertain, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking about!
But the woman didn't feel nervous at all. She looked at Chaofeng impatiently, and finally urged: "Are you ready? This is a good thing. If I didn't need money urgently, I wouldn't take it." Come and put it in this pawn shop! Just this thing, even if you get it to the county town or the prefectural city, you have to pay me 50 taels!"

Chao Feng, who had been expressionless all this time, raised his eyes to look at the woman when he heard this!Throwing the things in your hands forward: "Then you should go to Fucheng, our small shop can't afford this price!"

Bai Xiaoyu stared, how arrogant!Not even perfunctory!

Raising his neck to look at the thing placed on the table in front of him, Bai Xiaoyu's eyes lit up!
It was a gold-encrusted jewelry butterfly hairpin. The master who made the hairpin was obviously very skillful, and the butterfly on the hairpin was about to fly and came alive!It is so golden that it dazzles people's eyes!
The most striking thing is not only this, but the top of the butterfly is also inlaid with this bright red gemstone, which is quite round and smooth.If this ruby ​​is real, 50 taels of silver is really not much!

Naturally, Bai Xiaoyu is not the only one who thinks this way, even that middle-aged woman is the same!
After hearing Chao Feng's words, his face became angry immediately, and the lines that could not be concealed by the heavy makeup appeared. He stared at Chao Feng and said, "Is this the way you do business here? This is a ruby, a gold inlaid jewelry butterfly hairpin , it’s enough to keep your store open for a month! Do you know?”

Lao Chaofeng didn't even give her a look this time, and directly said to the man in front of Bai Xiaoyu and the others: "Next!"

"Hey, you, you..." The man was about to step forward, but was pushed away by the woman: "Get up!"

Jumping forward again, the woman's face no longer had so much hostility, but she still said to the old court angrily: "Then tell me, how much can you offer! Tell me!"

Liu Zifeng supported the staggering man who was pushed by the woman, and looked at Chaofeng after he stood still!

As soon as Bai Xiaoyu turned her head, she saw the man who was still very calm just now, being supported by Liu Zifeng in this way, after standing still, she immediately looked at Liu Zijun warily, and then took two steps forward to distance herself from Liu Zijun!

Frowning, Bai Xiaoyu felt that something was wrong with this man!

Over there, Chao Feng didn't ignore the woman who was rushing over again, but stretched out his hand and spread his fingers: "Five money!"

"What?" A scream sounded, and the woman's face turned red with anger!

Then the woman ignored the volume, and shouted directly at Chao Feng: "I think you are old and dizzy, and you actually gave me five dollars for this hairpin? Are you begging for food? Believe it or not, I demolished your house Shop! A gold-encrusted jewelry butterfly hairpin actually gave me five dollars, I think you have lost money!"

Lao Chaofeng became impatient, and waved his hand: "The five qian silver is still for the sake of the good workmanship of this hairpin. It is a fake, and you still want to be 50 taels. I think you are just looking for money!"

The woman suddenly lost her voice, and then stared at the old court with a look of surprise, "What did you say? Is this hairpin fake? Where is it fake? Is the gold fake or the gems? No, you Did you lie to me, you want to use a low price, so you lied to me, right?"

Lao Chaofeng simply waved his big hand: "It's all fake, gold is fake, gemstones are fake, if you don't believe it, the shop next door sells all jewelry, you can ask the master inside, if you still have If you don’t believe me, ask whoever you like! Then if it’s fake, it will never be true!”

The woman gritted her teeth, and finally took the hairpin and left!The staggering footwork made Bai Xiaoyu look extraordinarily restless, causing Bai Xiaoyu to take another look!
To be honest, if Bai Xiaoyu and his laymen see that hairpin, it is really pretty. Whether it is the golden color, the luminosity of ruby, or the workmanship of the hairpin, they are all eye-catching and heart-pounding. thing.But just like what Lao Chaofeng said, a fake is a fake, you can only look at it, but you can't exchange it for money!

Soon, the matter about the woman was forgotten, and Bai Xiaoyu looked at a man in front of him!
Like the two of Bai Xiaoyu, holding a small bag with unknown contents in his hands, and being tightly hugged by the man!
Different from the composure just now, the man's face is full of hesitation and nervousness, and there is even a fine layer of sweat on his forehead!
Finally, the man gritted his teeth and said to Chao Feng: "I have something here, show me how much it is worth!"

With that said, he unpacked the bag!
This time it is still something that makes people shine!

Ginseng!

And according to visual inspection, if such ginseng is wild ginseng, it will probably take a hundred years!
Sure enough, Lao Chaofeng's eyes lit up, he couldn't wait to pick up the ginseng tree, looked at it carefully, and groped!

After a while, when the owner of the ginseng was nervous and didn't know what to do, the court priest put down the ginseng in his hand and said, "I can't tell whether this thing is true or not, why don't you wait a little longer, little brother?" , we will have a doctor come over later, let him see how it is!"

The man nodded in embarrassment, quickly wrapped the ginseng and hugged it again!

After giving up their seats, Bai Xiaoyu and Liu Zijun will naturally be next!
"Old man, show me how much this is worth!" Bai Xiaoyu stepped forward and opened the bag!

It was the most expensive set of jewelry in Bai Xiaoyu's dowry, which was relatively comprehensive, including a jade bracelet with a hundred sons wishful pattern, a gourd-shaped white jade earring with many children and many grandchildren, a white jade pendant for sending a child to Guanyin, and a pair of peony hairpins. There are all of them, and there are piles of white gold inlaid with jade. Although there is not much gold, it doesn't look so dazzling, but the workmanship of each one is exquisite, and the material of the jade is also good. money!
Bai Xiaoyu chose what she said to Liu Zhengshi at the beginning, such a set of things can be worth ten taels of silver, but she understands in her mind that it is definitely more than ten taels, that is, the one who has never brought jade all year round, and yearns for gold and silver even more. Liu Zheng, who made the finished product, would not know the price!
As for why I chose these jewelry, apart from being the most expensive, there is another reason, that is the meaning of these things, each one has good wishes, and it looks like it is for the newlyweds!But in Bai Xiaoyu's heart, those things were all wishes for the former Bai Xiaoyu, and it had nothing to do with her!And after last night, she felt even more that it is better to keep these things for herself, and if there are any more in the future, they are hers!

Although a little childish, but she is so awkward!

Seeing these beautiful things, Chao Feng glanced at Bai Xiaoyu. Obviously, he knew that these were a woman's dowry, and looking at Bai Xiaoyu's age, where these things came from, he had some guesses!
However, as a pawnshop's court tribute, these things can be seen a lot. If it is not forced by family circumstances, no one will come to the pawnshop with valuables at home!
So even though there was some fluctuation in his heart, Chao Feng didn't say anything in the end, and went up to test these things!
　The last update for today, dear friends, good night!
