Chapter 42: Ruxuan's Defeat
Chapter 42 Ruxuan loses
As the night deepened, the lone lamp man was alone. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In the empty shop, a middle-aged man has an account book in front of him, he is the second shopkeeper of Qiaomufang, and he is crackling the abacus at this time, settling the income of this month.
It's really unlucky, it's his turn to be on duty today, he has to hurry up, and he has to go back to coax the good grandson who didn't sleep at night and was talking right.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound of entering the door from the front hall, and the second shopkeeper was a little surprised, and turned his head to look at the funnel next to him, it was already over.
Except for the Flower Street Willow Lane and the inn, the other shops have long been closed.
If it weren't for the reckoning today, their Qiaomu Workshop would have closed long ago.
At this time, how can there be a guest officer entering the store?
The second shopkeeper closed the account book and walked to the front hall, because he planned to close, the man sent him home, and now he can only greet him himself.
When he saw the three people in front of him, he was a little surprised, all three of them were coarse and gray, but their demeanor was calm and natural, and they were not half restrained.
But no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like you're rich, and you shouldn't be here to talk about business.
Although it is true that they can't do a few businesses every month, who doesn't know that the things in Qiaomufang are high and good, and he really has never met a patron who is dressed so shably.
Besides, in the wood business, the material is very important, and how can you see it clearly at night.
The second shopkeeper couldn't figure it out for a while, and these three people came into the store at night.
With a smile on his face, he stepped forward and asked with a smile, "I wonder what the guest officers need?" "There is no warm flattery, and there is no contempt.
Gu Ruxuan saw it in her eyes, but she was very satisfied with this attitude, smiled faintly, and said lightly: "When you enter the store, you are naturally here to talk about business." ”
Talking about business? She talks? Big night talk?
The second shopkeeper's face was as usual, and he continued to smile and asked, "I don't know what business the girl wants to talk about?" "At this hour, such a dress, it shouldn't be a young lady, it's always right to call a girl.
"Naturally, talking about big business," Gu Ruxuan tilted her head, looking slightly annoyed, "The yard where I live is empty, there is nothing, of course I lack everything." ”
The second shopkeeper was surprised, this whole set is calculated, in their Qiaomu workshop, even ordinary wood costs a lot of silver, which is indeed a big business.
He looked at Gu Ruxuan and asked, "I wonder what kind of wood the girls want to use?" Do you have any special instructions for woodworking? ”
Gu Ruxuan looked around, pointed to a fuchsia wood and said, "This kind of mahogany comes out with the utensils of three bedrooms." ”
The shopkeeper was surprised again, this mahogany is not cheap, the most basic utensils of a bedroom can be a bed, a cabinet, a dressing table, a desk, a few, a stool, etc., the mahogany wood alone is at least a hundred taels of silver, if you want a delicate style, the best wood art can be nearly three hundred taels, and the amount of three bedrooms is about seven or eight hundred taels of silver.
You must know that ordinary small households, more than ten or twenty people, a family can chew for a year and no more than fifty taels of silver.
Gu Ruxuan didn't care about the mahogany anymore, and began to wander around the hall, the dim light did not affect her eyesight at all.
"None of this will work, take me to see the fine wood." In fact, mahogany is already considered a first-class wood, but she really doesn't need to use it.
The second shopkeeper was not only surprised this time, yes, the wood displayed here is indeed very rare, and they also have a special place for high-quality wood.
I didn't expect that I would look away today, what this girl wants to talk about is really big business.
Not daring to slack off in the slightest, he stretched out his hand, bent down and bowed, and respectfully led: "Girl, please come here!" ”
The second shopkeeper directly led Gu Ruxuan's master and servant to a large warehouse in the backyard, and lit all the lights, which were bright and bright as day for a while.
Gu Ruxuan took a fancy to the two kinds of wood in the middle at a glance, high-grade huanghuali and golden silk nanmu.
She asked, "How much of these two types of wood are there?" ”
The second shopkeeper was shocked, what she meant, yes...... Do you want it all?
Does she know what kind of wood it is?
The second shopkeeper said tentatively: "Miss, there are still a lot of high-grade rosewood, but this golden silk nanmu is the only one in front of you." When talking about the finest huanghuali and golden silk nanmu, the tone was deliberately accentuated, implying that this is the best wood and is very valuable.
"That's enough, all these golden silk nanmu are used in the study, it should be more than enough, and the hall and my bedroom are all made of huanghuali." Gu Ruxuan smiled slightly, knowing what this person meant, but she didn't care at all, she would remind her like this, it was normal.
The second shopkeeper was dumbfounded, and his intuition felt that he must have heard it wrong, but deep down in his heart, there were thousands of joys rushing up, and he was almost unable to suppress it and went on the surface.
In the end, he cautiously and tirelessly asked again: "What does the girl mean...... Is it all about these two types of wood? "It's unbelievable," I don't know...... Can the girl know the price of these two types of wood? ”
All use these two kinds of sky-high wood, just kidding, this will cost nearly 10,000 taels of silver!
Who dares to spend so much, this girl probably doesn't understand this, right? The second shopkeeper thought to himself, although he hoped that it was true.
Gu Ruxuan smiled, she didn't know the price of Linzhou, but she understood what he meant, and it was normal for her to be suspicious, she looked at the second shopkeeper and said, "I don't know, you can count it for me." ”
The shopkeeper smiled at her but was a little uncomfortable, as if he was laughing at her for not being able to pay the bill.
In fact, it was not a mockery, but it was just too surprised: "If there is really nothing in your yard, these two kinds of wood plus the mahogany in the front hall just now, a total of four bedrooms, a hall and a study, I'm afraid ...... It will cost at least eight thousand taels of silver. "As for the style of wood art or something, you don't need to ask, naturally you want the best.
Banxia's mouth opened wide, and she could already stuff an egg.
Eight thousand taels of silver!
Are they to be made of gold?
And then what did she hear?
"Well, this price is fair, then it's set," Gu Ruxuan nodded lightly, her eyes wandered, she looked at Banxia, and said, "Banxia, take out a thousand taels of silver first as a deposit and give it to this ......."
"We are the second shopkeeper of our store." The second shopkeeper saw her looking at herself, quickly picked up her chin that had dropped, and replied.
OMG! What a huge customer!
Tonight's business is at least worth a year's income from Qiaomufang.
Banxia's chin has not been recovered yet, she really wants to say that this must be a black shop, deliberately blackmailing them for money, but the master just said that the price is fair.
