"What now?" The money was lost all of a sudden, and Yu Wenyi became worried, "We don't have the money to take the car back to the capital now." ”

"I was not careful." Lin Yu sighed and said, "Look for a pawnshop or something, I still have two pieces of jewelry on my body." ”

Although Yu Wenyi was very frustrated, he couldn't complain about Lin Yu anything. One is that the money originally belonged to Lin Yu, and the other is that Lin Yu lost the money because she was soft-hearted, and watched the young beggar take out some money for him, but she didn't want the beggar to take all the money with her hands quickly. It's already sad to be disappointed by her kindness, and it's too late for Yu Wenyi to comfort her, how can it make her even more sad.

If you want to have more than one place on Lin Yu's body on weekdays, she doesn't care much about the twenty taels of broken silver. But before the two left, Lin Yu put two silver tickets of one hundred taels and one twenty taels on his body in front of the eldest mother's bed. This place is not very far from the capital, and the cost of five taels of silver for two people is more than enough, who knew that such a thing would happen in Lu Dao?

Fortunately, Lin Yu still has a few pieces of jewelry on his body, and Yu Wenyi also has some gold and jade jewelry, all of which are valuable goods. As long as you find a pawnshop, you don't have to worry about going out. Lin Yu thought about it, first found the largest inn in the county and walked in.

"Shopkeeper, what kind of suite do you have?"

At this time, it was the time when the flow of customers was low, and the innkeeper was holding an abacus to settle the accounts, and when he heard this, he looked up at Lin Yu, who was dressed in coarse cloth, "Little lady, are you sure you want a suite?" Suites are not cheap. ”

"You talk about the situation first, and then I'll make a decision." Lin Yu didn't care about the laziness in his tone, and said with a smile, "Our brother and sister went to relatives together, but my brother was injured a little bit, and I don't feel at ease if I live alone." ”

"Then let me see, well, there are four empty rooms, one larger one for two hundred wen, three bedrooms and a small hall. The other 100 wen has two bedrooms and a small hall. The shopkeeper flipped through the check-in record and said.

"Then bring me a little suite." Lin Yu looked at Yu Wenyi, touched his nose and said.

"Do you want food, then? Twenty yuan per person for a meal, one meat and one vegetable, enough rice. A la carte is coming by price. The shopkeeper asked without raising his head. I can say that the quality of the food is relatively average. ”

"What you eat, it depends on the shopkeeper how the pawnshop you introduced to me is." Lin Yu laughed.

When the shopkeeper heard this, his eyes widened, "You don't have any money?" Don't have the money to do anything? ”

"What do you think this is?" Lin Yuliang put the gold bracelet in his hand, "This is pure gold, and it is also inlaid with pearls." ”

"Don't be a fake." The shopkeeper did not believe that there were people who wore coarse cloth clothes and gold bracelets. But then he reacted again and laughed, "You are fake and don't get in the way of my business, so let's do it, there is a pawnshop in this backstreet, and the money is quite neat, but the shopkeeper is very harsh and has a very poisonous vision." If only your bracelet were real. He can get a good price. I'll ask the second child to accompany you on a trip. ”

Lin Yu smiled, "Then borrow your auspicious words, and leave me a suite." My brother. Please take care of it for the time being. ”

"This is a trivial matter, a little tea, and a bench is still available." The shopkeeper smiled.

Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper agreed, but Yu Wenyi refused, "I want to go with you, I haven't seen the pawnshop yet." ”

The shopkeeper looked at Yu Wenyi's face with novelty, and thought about his appearance of fine skin and white flesh, and muttered secretly in his heart, is it really a pair of young ladies and sons in distress? Do you want to entertain yourself? It's also good to have a good relationship. He made up his mind, even if the pawnshop in the back street didn't give much money. Let's give them a suite. It's off-season now, and the suites are generally dissatisfied.

The shopkeeper called a running hall junior to accompany the two of them, and the pawnshop was indeed quite close, but it was only ten minutes away. The name is Fugui Pawnshop, with a high door bar and a very high counter. A pale-faced middle-aged man was coming out of it, his face full of excitement.

Xiao'er saw the man and sneered, "This is Uncle Sun in the back street, of course, he can't be considered an uncle now." The little family property that his son left him was all a disaster. Look, I don't know what Lu Dao did to gamble. ”

Lin Yu also sighed when he heard this, "Such a gambler, once he gets a gambling word, it will be difficult to quit, he wants to turn over when he loses, he wants to win if he wins, and few can get out." ”

As the two spoke, they entered the door, and at the entrance was a high counter, and behind the counter sat a lean man in his forties.

"Yo, Xiao Qi, why are you here? Isn't this supposed to be on duty? ”

"Bring a guest to Shopkeeper He." Xiao Er turned his head to Lin Yu and Yu Wenyi and said, "Take the things you want to take to the shopkeeper." ”

Lin Yu took off the bracelet and handed it over, and the shopkeeper He took it upside down, with a look of surprise on his face, "Yo, it's still a gold bracelet, not a silver gold." ”

"Shopkeeper, how much do you think this bracelet can cost?" Lin Yu had never seen the blackness of the pawnshop, and he was a little curious about how much the shopkeeper would bid.

You must know that this bracelet is a gold bracelet that is close to four taels, and the cost of gold alone is forty taels of silver, plus carving beads, there is no one hundred and twenty taels of silver that cannot be taken. This was given by Mrs. Lin when Lin Yu was in the Hou Mansion, and Lin Yu herself was not very willing to buy such expensive jewelry.

Why do you have to give fifty taels, Lin Yu thought while calculating, the gold alone is worth this price, and the bead also needs one or twenty taels. I didn't think about it, and the shopkeeper took it and looked at it, and immediately widened his eyes.

"Although your gold bracelet is gold, but the color is not good, one tael of gold has to be exchanged for ten taels of silver, and pearls are not good pearls, count you five taels to the sky. This bracelet is less than four taels, and according to the rules of our pawnshop, it can naturally be counted as three taels. This is thirty-five taels, the carving on your bracelet is not good, it is too rough, it affects the appearance of this bracelet, and you have to deduct five taels upside down. Death deed, thirty taels! That's the highest price I can offer. ”

Hearing him say this, Lin Yu almost laughed angrily, and Yu Wenyi's eyes widened even more, "You deceive people too much!" ”

"Pawnshop, pawnshop, if the bid is high, what money will I make!" Shopkeeper He rolled his eyes and said, "And I see that you are poorly dressed, this thing may not be stolen, it is good that I am willing to accept it." ”

Why couldn't he see the value of the bracelet? However, he always felt that the bracelet might not have been stolen by these two people, and it was the first time that these two people had entered the pawnshop. It's definitely a fool.

Seeing that Yu Wenyi was about to lose his temper, Xiao Erxiao Qi next to him pulled his sleeve and said with a smile, "What is the shopkeeper." Your price is too low. ”

Lin Yu didn't speak, but he had already seen a pawn ticket on the counter next to Shopkeeper He. It was a living deed, and he was made a fur fur, and the price was consistent, and after a month, he was redeemed for the same two hundred dollars.

"Well, since the price of the death contract is so low, let's live the contract." Lin Yu stared at Shopkeeper He and said. "Thirty taels of silver, and in a month what shall I redeem for thirty-five denarii? If I don't come to redeem it, I will naturally return to death, and you will earn dozens of taels for nothing. If I come to redeem it, you won't lose anything, and five taels of silver is a lot, so you can't be too greedy. I will give me seventy or eighty taels of silver for any silver building I get this bracelet. ”

Although the little girl seemed to be smiling, she was not as angry as the young man behind her. Shopkeeper He paid more attention to Lin Yu's attitude. He could tell that the little girl was the one who was in charge of the two. Seeing that she was not easy to fool, Shopkeeper He thought about it and signed a contract with Lin Yu as if he had made a lot of money. The shopkeeper He went back to the house and weighed thirty taels of broken silver. Lin Yu checked the condition, nodded, and then handed the bracelet to Shopkeeper He.

As soon as he went out, Yu Wenyi couldn't help but shout at Xiao Qi, the second child in the running hall, "Didn't you say that he was more kind?" I think his heart is very dark. ”

Before Sun Xiaoqi could speak, Lin Yu laughed, "What you said, the world is as black as a crow, how can this shopkeeper be a special case." ”

"It's still this girl who is sensible, this pawnshop is not black-eyed and not poisonous, but ordinary people can't open it." Sun Xiaoqi explained. "I said that he was kind, but because the quality of the money he gave was good, and he did not deduct the amount of money, nor did he cheat people on the contract. You are literate, and you are better, we are illiterate. It's even more worrisome. For example, the pawnshop opened by the county magistrate's family often cheats people on the contract, and even buys and sells it by force. ”

"Then his pawnshop is still open?" Lin Yu asked curiously.

"Naturally, there are still such uninformed outsiders, or first-time people. His pawnshop is in a good location, on the busiest street in the city, and you can see it when you enter the city and walk along the main road. Sun Xiaoqi said with a smile, "The two of you are lucky, if you go there to be a thing, you will definitely be forced to be a death contract." Speaking of which, the county magistrate is better, especially his housekeeper, who is really greedy, and we all call him a bloodsucking mouse in private. ”

Speaking of the county housekeeper, Yu Wenyi remembered his identity jade plate again, in case he lost it, it would be difficult to get another one. But it looks like a valuable thing, so I don't worry too much about damage. Thinking of this, he relaxed a lot and happily followed Sun Xiaoqi back to the inn. Now that they have silver, food and accommodation are not a problem, and the innkeeper heard that they wanted to go to the capital, and he was even more enthusiastic to help Zhang Luo, which surprised both of them.

The two of them didn't know what to do, and the county government at this time had a lot of turmoil because of the jade plate. The local county magistrate's surname is Sun, and he has the same surname as Sun Xiaoqi, but he is not related, and he can't fight together. The grandfather of Sun County is a serious person, but he is only a side branch of the Sun family, a small local family, and the family is powerful, and his ability is also ordinary. Seeing that there is no hope for promotion, he can also see it, marry a few beautiful concubines, chickens, ducks and fish every day, and be a local emperor is also very comfortable.

Sun Xiaoqi said that the county order housekeeper was greedy, but he didn't know how Lu Dao would have tolerated such a housekeeper if it wasn't for the county order himself. The housekeeper scavenged all over the place, and although he could keep a small part of it, most of the best ones had to be handed over to the county order. At this moment, the housekeeper is offering treasures to the grandfather of Sun County, including the prince's jade plate that he snatched from the old man a few days ago.

"Master, how do you look at this jade pendant? This is a few days ago an old man in the countryside with a jade pendant and a letter to recognize his relatives, how can you have such a poor relative! So I blew him away, and seeing that the jade pendant was good, I asked him to play with you. ”

"Well, well done, I really don't have any poor relatives."

Mrs. Sun County has been pampered for many years, and he has been eating fat head and big ears, and he is leaning on the soft couch with his eyes closed at this time to eat cherries. Hearing this, the county master nodded and stretched out a white and fat hand to the housekeeper, motioning for him to put the jade pendant in his hand. The housekeeper can get him so trusted, naturally there are almost less roundworms in his stomach, and he hurriedly put the jade pendant in the hand of the county master.

"Well, the tentacles are warm, good jade, good jade. I also have a lot of beautiful jade, and there is nothing better than this one, well, take a good look. "Master Sun County has also seen a lot of beautiful jade, and he knows the grade of Daoyu when he touches it, and his originally closed little eyes have also opened, ready to appreciate it.

As his eyes, which were getting smaller and smaller due to too much fat on his face, slowly opened, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He was able to be admitted to the lifting of people, although he went through the back door, but he also has some real skills, at least he has read poetry books, and he knows the rules.

"Idiot! What stupid things have you done! He glanced at Yu Pei and was immediately shocked and angry, the fat body jumped up from the soft couch at once, and kicked the butler to the ground fiercely.

"Master! Why are you hitting me? The steward asked, "It's just an old man in the countryside, does he dare to go to the court?" ”

"Fart, old man in the countryside! This is the jade pendant of the Seven Princes, and it is like seeing people. As for the old man, bring him quickly, and I will ask him myself. ”

Because it is not particularly far from the capital, he has already known about the accidents of the princes and princesses. In fact, his superiors also ordered him to search the area for the traces of the Assassins and the missing prince. Sun Xianling didn't expect that this matter would be his turn at all, so he didn't worry much about it, but just asked the others in the county government to do it.

I didn't expect the Seven Princes to really appear in his jurisdiction. It was a great credit to save the prince. But now in this situation, let alone the credit, his life may be lost. It's all to blame on this housekeeper! Worse than useless!

"Hurry up, bring me someone." Sun Xian ordered a stack of voices to urge the housekeeper to come.

"But he's gone." The steward was embarrassed to say that he had beaten the person, but only whispered about the situation.

"What about faith? Didn't you say he also brought a letter? Sun Xianling was in a cold sweat right now.

"I didn't ask for it, he brought it back!"

"Idiot! Idiot! Idiot! Three fools in a row were not enough to express Sun County's anger, "Go find me, find it all over the county!" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
