Chapter 53: The Beginning of Business

Jin Yun's words Jin Qiwu can still be regarded as a child who is not sensible, but Yongxin is different, he quickly stood up and shouted: "Thirty taels? Someone paid thirty taels to buy our formula? ”

"Second uncle, be quiet." The second uncle's voice roared loudly, which attracted the attention of the surroundings, he hurriedly pulled it over, and said in a low voice: "Linglong Pavilion has thirty taels, but I still don't want to sell the formula lightly." “

Jin Qiwu directly patted him on the back of the head, and said angrily: "Don't be stupid, what kind of formula is used for a silver-plated hairpin, just sell it directly." ”

Yongxin was not angry, he slowly uncovered the corner of the handkerchief, handed it to the second uncle, and motioned for him to look.

Jin Qiwu's eyes suddenly widened, if the eldest nephew didn't say it, he couldn't believe that this was silver jewelry, shining in the hot sun, bright and dazzling.

In the middle of the sound, he patted his thigh, gritted his teeth and said: "Which turtle grandson wants to pit us, don't sell it, thirty taels will definitely not sell it." ”

After running the dock for so many days, I don't know anything else, but I have seen a lot of expensive jewelry.

Not to mention silver jewelry, even gold jewelry worth hundreds of taels he has seen one or two.

The man took out the gold and jewels, and the light shone brightly. It attracted the exclamation of the crowd present.

Such a small step shake costs one hundred and thirty taels, which he doesn't dare to think about.

And the hairpin taken out by the eldest nephew, although it is not as good as these, but he has never seen such a shiny silver jewelry on the market.

Jin Qiwu took out two from Yongxin's hand, one with three plum blossoms, and the other with a blooming peony on the head of a hairpin.

"Wait." With that, he ran to the place where the crowd was most crowded on the dock.

I saw him turn left and right to find one of them, this person was wearing silk, with a clear jade pendant hanging around his waist, a belly with a big belly, and the fat on his face was full of smiles.

Jin Yun only saw her titular second brother, and after taking out two hairpins from her sleeve, she didn't know what to say to him.

The obese merchant gestured without thinking, took out a few ingots of silver from the money bag he carried, and exchanged them with the silver-plated hairpin in Jin Qiwu's hand. Then, as if he was very satisfied, he pointed to the angry man next to him and said something, as if he had introduced Jin Qiwu to him.

The distance was far, but Jin Yun did not miss the merchant's expression, although he was not amazed, but with joy.

Jin Qiwu smiled, his waist, which was bent by the weight first, straightened up, even if he was courteous, but he was not humble.

It didn't take long for him to walk back, his steps brisk and his face radiant, so that they didn't have to think about it to know what the outcome would be.

Yongxin still hurried forward and asked expectantly, "Second uncle, how is it?" ”

"Let's go, buy meat and go home. Lao Tzu almost forgot the smell of meat. "A few days ago, my uncle came to the door, and the old lady made a bowl of meat, but in the end he didn't dare to stretch out his chopsticks, so he could only open his nostrils and smell the aroma of meat. Now that the silver is in his body, how can Jin Qiwu be reluctant.

Yongxin couldn't help but swallow his throat, and continued to grind the second uncle to ask.

Jin Qiwu couldn't be entangled, so he stretched out his hand and compared two fingers.

"Two taels?" Yongxin was speechless, and his hand took it out of his pocket: "I still have five here, isn't that five taels of silver?" ”

"Stupid, it's two or two." Jin Qiwu raised his head proudly, but he didn't notice that his hands were still trembling.

Yongxin stopped his pace in shock, and Jin Yun, who walked to the back, almost bumped into it, she bypassed and continued to move forward, and when he came to his senses, he would follow.

Jin Qiwu's heart jumped, and he wanted to continue, but when he turned his head, he found that the little sister who was following him was not a little happy, and the corners of his mouth were knitting but he couldn't hold back his words.

Fortunately, when he arrived at the place where the pork was sold, he reached out and touched it on the pork.

"Brother, it's all fresh, come and have some?" Butcher Zhang twisted up a piece of thin and fat pork belly and handed it forward.

Jin Qiwu felt that his fingers were a little sticky, and he knew that what the butcher said was true, looking at the fat of Bai Huahua with bright red lean meat, it was obviously very fresh.

"What's the price?" Jin Qiwu hurriedly added: "Brother, they are all acquaintances from the dock, you have to give it to me cheaper." ”

"Well, by the way, the price of my house on the dock is the fairest." Butcher Zhang smiled heartily, took a machete and drew on the meat fingers spread on the stall: "Ten wen for pork belly, you give thirteen wen for pure fat, and you can count eight wen for lean meat." ”

With money in his pocket, Jin Qiwu had confidence in his heart, and he said arrogantly: "Don't want lean meat too firewood, give me two catties of fatty meat, and another catty of pork belly." Brother, I asked for so much, you give me less. ”

"It's a must, no matter how little I have to drink the northwest wind, how can I support my family." Butcher Zhang's hand holding the machete swayed violently, and the startled Jin Qiwu secretly took half a step, for fear that the machete in his hand would be thrown off.

"Add three bones." Jin Yun couldn't help but speak, her favorite thing in the past was kelp pot bones, kelp she has come to the town so many times, she has never seen it, and boiling a tube of bone broth can also satisfy her cravings.

"That's unacceptable, a big bone will cost three articles." Butcher Zhang refused, but his hand quickly pulled out three thick bones from the cage next to him.

Jin Qiwu watched the meat on it be scraped clean, without a little meat foam, and couldn't help but feel a little disgusted on his face. But it was rare for the little sister to speak, and he didn't want to refuse, so he said: "Brother, let's continue to take care of your business next time." ”

is still ready for the butcher to refuse, then there is no way, who knows.

Butcher Zhang thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "Cheng." ”

He cut the meat neatly, hugged it with oiled paper, took a piece of hemp rope and tied it firmly, handed it over, and said, "Forty Wen." ”

Jin Qiwu stretched out his hand to pull out the cuff, and after knowing that Suosuo had been busy for a long time, he grabbed a handful, put the copper plate on the pavement and counted it carefully.

Yongxin behind him just came, and when he saw that the second uncle was carrying two or three oiled paper bags in his hand, he couldn't help but be frightened, he bought so much, it was not easy to go back.

"Why are you so slow, let's go home." As soon as Jin Qiwu finished speaking, he was pulled by Yongxin's sleeve.

"Second uncle, if you buy so much, your grandmother will definitely blame you when you go back."

Jin Qiwu shook it off and said, "The money from selling hairpins hasn't moved." Don't forget, I'm a broker, and I get a commission when I sell things. ”

"Rake? How many, second uncle. Yongxin asked curiously.

"One or two has twenty-five Wen, and the higher the selling price, the higher the commission, the doubling of the commission." Jin Qiwu sighed that this was his first business, although he got more money than carrying goods, the joy in his heart was not determined by the price.

This proves that he has also succeeded, and he has taken a difficult first step and strengthened the confidence that has wavered in his heart.
