The shopkeeper wanted to welcome Qiao Lan inside, serving tea and snacks, and by the way, he looked at the goods and talked about the price, in his eyes, the Jianghu people acted in a rough and informal style, and it was best to fool around, but he ignored that the Jianghu people also pay attention to cutting the mess with a quick knife, who would go back and forth with him to play Tai Chi.

Qiao Lan, a "Jianghu person", walks in a strong-blooded and impatient style, "Don't come to this set, the master doesn't have the kung fu to get tired of you." Just this Maitreya Buddha statue, in a word, give a price, it's appropriate, and the master won't keep it. It means that it is also possible to keep it.

"Shaoxia, don't worry, you have to let me take a closer look, so that I can estimate it. I also have to ask what the origin of this thing is. "The shopkeeper secretly wiped his sweat, and he didn't do Tai Chi, how could he fool people.

"It was robbed by a few young masters who broke into the Tartar camp. I said, "You shouldn't be afraid of the tartars and don't dare to take them." The crooked chirp is endless. ”

"Accept it! Why don't you accept it! I hate that tartar so much, a few young heroes. That's it......" The shopkeeper deliberately slowed down the voice offer, "Five hundred taels ......"

"What?!Five hundred taels?!" Knowing that the shopkeeper wanted to fool people, Qiao Lan pretended to be angry, chopped the wooden stick, and was about to step forward to take the jade carving back, "The eldest brother said, less than three thousand taels is not appropriate, let's take it back and offer it." ”

"Don't be impatient, listen to me," the shopkeeper hurriedly blocked Qiao Lan's hand, "The five hundred taels I said is the price of this base, and the Buddha statue is two thousand five hundred taels, and it should be a !! to die" The owner gave him a limit of five thousand taels a day, and it hasn't opened today, but he can make a lot of money on this single business, so he gritted his teeth and gave a number that he thought was good.

"Shopkeeper, don't gasp when you speak, I can't stand it. Qiao Lan accepted the price of three thousand taels and stopped fighting, she was so tired from acting, she just wanted to take the silver and leave quickly.

"When people are old, they don't speak very well. "The shopkeeper is playing haha.

So, the pawnshop shopkeeper successfully pocketed the Buddha statue, although the price was not as he wanted, but after all, it was a matter of making less and more money in the future, and there was no possibility of losing money, and Qiao Lan pressed a jade powder into a jade carving as three thousand taels, equivalent to three million, she felt that she had really earned it, so they were all happy.

At this time, Qiao Lan was still immersed in the joy of being rich, and she didn't think about it, the jade in this era only looks at the color, and there is no truth at all, so she doesn't have to worry about this problem at all, and not long after, when she knew that this jade carving was regarded as a new jade species and offered a price of 15,000 taels, she regretted that her intestines were blue, of course, this is all a later story.

Qiao Lan knew that she could bring back a lot of silver this time, if she just wanted silver, in terms of weight alone, she probably couldn't carry the pawnshop, so she specially went to learn about the silver bills, among which the widest range of the two most qualified imperial merchants in the country, the Zhang family and the Liu family, jointly issued the big treasure banknotes, and the Zhang family and the Liu family would not be forgiven once they were found to be guilty of making fake big treasure banknotes.

Qiao Lan also inquired a lot about the Fang family's pawnshop, except for inappropriate people who came to be inappropriate objects, and had not heard of being found guilty of fake silver tickets, so Qiao Lan, who did not know how to identify silver tickets, was very relieved to ask for two thousand nine hundred taels of silver tickets and one hundred taels of loose silver.

After counting the silver tickets and loose silver, Qiao Lan tried her best to restrain the muscles on her face and made a big loss and walked out of the pawnshop, but this time there was no one behind her to prepare to "pick up" the silver for nothing.

With these three thousand taels of silver, Qiao Lan had confidence, and her morale was unprecedentedly high. After changing back into women's clothes, she ran to the Treasure Pavilion in a hurry, not buying jewelry, but buying jewelry boxes, but was "invited" out on the grounds of making trouble. Qiao Lan pursed her lips, and simply went to the carpenter Li who bought the wooden stick before, and asked him to make a jewelry box according to "her idea".

Carpenter Li occasionally helps others make jewelry boxes, but the objects are small and the wages are not high, he would rather help with large pieces of furniture, Qiao Lan came to order jewelry boxes, he didn't care, but after listening to Qiao Lan's description, he became serious, and hurriedly asked his mother-in-law to go into the back room and take out a set of four treasures of the study.

Qiao Lan was originally a scumbag when she painted, not to mention that she couldn't draw with a brush that she had never used before. Carpenter Li was really curious about what the box full of traps that Qiao Lan said looked like, and asked his mother-in-law to bring his youngest son Li Da, but his mother-in-law was obviously reluctant to go, and only hesitated to go under Carpenter Li's repeated urging.

Li Da looked less than twenty years old, his eyebrows were clear, but he was too quiet, followed the old lady into the door, did not greet anyone, sat down by himself, picked up the pen and painted. Carpenter Li apologized to Qiao Lan for his son's faux pas, and asked Qiao Lan to describe her jewelry box again.

Qiao Lan said a few words, and Li Da silently changed a blank piece of paper and drew it according to Qiao Lan's description. Qiao Lan approached and pointed at the paper while describing, Li Da didn't speak, but he noticed what Qiao Lan said, and the two cooperated seamlessly. After drawing a few pictures successively, Qiao Lan's jewelry box was finally freshly baked, in fact, it was a solid wood jewelry box that she used and liked very much, as soon as it was opened, it came out layer by layer, as well as small drawers and dark grids. Qiao Lan didn't expect to be comparable to her previous one, it was enough to score six or seven points.

Qiao Lan wanted to pick up the drawings and look at them, but Li Da put away the drawings one step ahead of her, and she didn't give them to anyone. Carpenter Li held his forehead and apologized again, only saying that he already knew how to make the jewelry box and would definitely do it.

"Has he been like this since he was a child?" Qiao Lan asked more, she knew that Li Da's situation was by no means as simple as being shy, but very likely to be autistic.

"Ah......" Carpenter Li replied casually, not wanting to continue the topic. He and his mother-in-law basically didn't let Li Da appear in front of people, everyone said that his son was a fool, and even the eldest son Li Kui and his wife were disgusted, either cynical or making a lot of trouble, he and his mother-in-law had to split up, and then took his younger son to live in the shop.

"I still want to carve a picture on the box, can you help me draw it? Qiao Lan suddenly turned to Li Da, who was still struggling to write, Li Da was stunned and did not reply, but waited silently for a new piece of paper. Qiao Lan began to describe the "Moonlight on the Lotus Pond" to him, Li Da drew very seriously, and soon drew a picture of the "Moonlight on the Lotus Pond", and Qiao Lan pointed out a few things that were not well drawn. Li Da'an sat quietly, although he didn't seem to be listening, but after Qiao Lan finished speaking, he changed another piece of paper, this time he drew more seriously, after the picture was finished, he probably felt very satisfied, looked at it and looked at it, and finally handed the painting to Qiao Lan.

"For me?" Qiao Lan was surprised, she thought that she had probably inadvertently entered the world of an autistic person.

"......" Li Da still didn't speak, and after Qiao Lan took over the painting, he buried his head in painting again, and the painting was still the moonlight on the lotus pond.

Li Carpenter and his wife were overjoyed, they were heartbroken for their youngest son, and they couldn't cure it, and even communication was a problem, so they could only watch him sit alone in the corner and write and paint sadly, just saw Qiao Lan actually "talking" with his younger son, they already felt very surprised, the younger son actually gave away the painting, isn't this a sign of illness.

For the sake of that painting, Qiao Lan shallowly told Carpenter Li and his wife about "autism", and when Carpenter Li learned that his son was not a fool, he was grateful to her and called him a miracle doctor, but when he knew that autism was basically incurable, he all wilted. In fact, it is not absolute, but with the current level of medical care, it is too difficult, and it can only be alleviated with more guidance.

"You don't have to be like this, Brother Li's situation is not serious, but you must not force him to do what he does not want to do. He likes to draw, you can find him a gentleman to teach him to paint, he has a skill, and you don't have to worry about his life in a hundred years. ”

"Ah......" Although Qiao Lan's words talked about the life and death of the people next to him, it really talked about their hearts, they are now working day and night to do work for others, but not just to save two more money for the younger son, lest they kick their feet, and the younger son will ask people to rush to the street to beg for food.

Carpenter Li's mother-in-law couldn't wait to go out to inquire about her husband, but Qiao Lan was still there, so she had to greet her patiently.

Qiao Lan wanted to order two small ones, two extra-large ones, she gestured, the small ones were as big as a hug, the girl could hold them with a little strength at home, the extra-large size reached her waist and chest, and all of them were taller than her.

When talking about money, Carpenter Li was a little twisted and refused to quote the money, Qiao Lan thought that Carpenter Li was afraid that he would not be able to pay, so he asked him to report, she only asked for things to be made finely, and the price was easy to say.

To Qiao Lan's surprise, Carpenter Li planned to take nothing, but there was one condition, that is, to ask for her design. Qiao Lan couldn't turn around all of a sudden, and didn't reply, which made Carpenter Li so nervous that his palms were sweating, he probably felt that his request was too much, and he wanted to buy out a few jewelry boxes, so he stumbled and said that if the business of jewelry boxes was good, he would give Qiao Lan dividends.

Qiao Lan doesn't care, it's just a design drawing, it's not her own idea, you can get four exquisite jewelry boxes for free, why not? Qiao Lan didn't ask for dividends, just said that it would be good to let Carpenter Li make four jewelry boxes for her, and he could use the design drawings at will, and kindly mentioned that his drawings were not limited to jewelry boxes, but could also be used on other furniture.

Discussing the matter of the jewelry box, Li Carpenter and his wife were very enthusiastic about leaving the meal, Qiao Lan declined, she went to the famous, it is said to be very delicious, she asked for a seat, the seat position is very cleverly designed, that is, blocking the sight of most people, you can also hear the gossip in the hall.

Qiao Lan ordered four or five dishes, and as soon as she ate the meal, she was immediately satisfied, she hadn't tasted such a delicious meal for a long time. Qiao Lan savored the delicious food, and there was a table of people outside, probably running darts, talking about the autumn harvest in half a month. It is said that there was a severe drought in the south, and grain production plummeted. They were discussing running darts and at the same time brought a batch of food to buy.
