Chapter 149: Hand Over the Money
Xia Xiaodong raised his eyes and saw that this person called 'Second Master Huang' was a young man in his twenties, of medium stature, fairly white, with a few freckles near the bridge of his nose, but a pair of eyes were unusually smart, and he always refused to look at a place, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
Huang Erye ignored the guy, stood at the door, first looked at the people in the shop, especially after staying on Xia Xiaodong for a few minutes.
Xia Xiaodong couldn't help but shudder.
Whether it is the arrogant prince such as the sixth prince Ning Junwu and others, or the unpredictable people in the rivers and lakes such as Bai Erbai and the third generation, Xia Xiaodong has seen a few, and these people do not have such obscene eyes.
The gaze clearly seemed to have stripped off people's clothes, with a cold and unscrupulous lust, like a snake burrowing into the clothes along the neckline, swimming around and coming out, leaving only a wet and sticky feeling.
Xia Xiaodong frowned, his eyes quickly passed over Huang Er Ye at the door, and looked out.
There was no carriage in sight, and there was no Archie.
With Archie's vigilance, he shouldn't be far away, but Xia Xiaodong will never bet on others.
The hands that had been placed on the table were slightly moved to the shape of overlapping, so that the thin dagger hidden in the cuffs could be easily taken out.
Yes, since Bai Er confessed that time, it seemed that someone was trying to kidnap the girl from the Lu Mansion, and Xia Xiaodong was prepared to buy two thin daggers.
Although he is not surnamed Lu, after all, he has been in close contact with the Lu family recently.
Moreover, the dagger is not expensive.
It's just that although Huang Erye looked at Xia Xiaodong for a while, he didn't come to Xia Xiaodong, but went straight to the counter.
"How much money is in the account today? Take it all for me first! There is an emergency. Second Master Huang said impatiently to the old shopkeeper of Chonggu.
Listening to this tone, it seems that this shop is his.
Gu Lao's shopkeeper said strangely: "It was only on the fifth day of the first month that the account was checked, and only five taels of silver were left for running water at that time, and it was only a few days later." ”
"The fifth day of the first month is the fifth day of the first month, and today is today." Second Master Huang became more and more impatient, stretched out his scorched and thin fingers, and knocked a few times on the counter: "Open the cash cabinet and give me the silver first." It's all said, urgent! ”
Gu Lao's shopkeeper was still hesitating, his hand was on the handle of the drawer containing the money, and his eyes swept over Xia Xiaodong's face, revealing a little helplessness.
It's just on weekdays, the total has no money, but today I made a single big one, and it happened that Huang Erye came to be verbose.
Huang Erye had the patience to rub with Gu Lao's shopkeeper, frowned and pushed Gu Lao's shopkeeper away, put his hands together, and shook it a few times, and actually pulled out the whole drawer containing the money and placed it on the counter.
The drawer is like a regular cash chest, with several compartments containing scattered pieces of silver, string coins, and scattered copper coins.
Huang Erye's right hand was fast, and he stuffed a few small pieces of silver and a few strings of money into his arms, and even grabbed several handfuls of copper coins.
In the blink of an eye, most of the drawers were empty, and there were only a dozen copper coins left, all of which were spread flat at the bottom, with a round hole in the middle, looking at Huang Erye like eyes. If this copper coin can have a look in his eyes, it must be a mockery.
In the shop, everyone was lonely, watching Huang Erye busy with his work.
After all, Huang Erye still let go of the dozen or so copper coins, probably thinking that it was too much trouble to twist them one by one.
But this person didn't leave just like that, but looked at Gu Lao's shopkeeper and his buddy suspiciously, and sneered: "Is that all?" As he spoke, he swept the shelves again, as if to see what could go along.
The old shopkeeper Gu smiled bitterly: "Second Master Huang, you also know the business of the shop, it's good to have so much." You've just taken it now, and I don't know how to explain it when I look back. ”
Second Master Huang sneered: "Hey, if I hadn't been matchmaking, would this shop have been able to find the big umbrella of the Lu family?" It's been a restaurant like your neighbors, right? Except for the Chinese who took five taels of money at the beginning, did I ask you for money later? Reconciliation on the fifth day of the first month of each month, is it deliberately difficult for you? Don't be dissatisfied! Do you understand? ”
Every time the most hateful person asked, he shook his finger at the old shopkeeper and pointed out.
Being reprimanded by a young man in his twenties pointing his nose as a grandson, Gu Lao's shopkeeper's face was so dark that he could drip water, and when he heard the last two words 'understand', he finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said coldly: "Second Master Huang, you were originally from the Lu Mansion, and you fell in love with this shop and wanted to buy it." It's been sold, and it's been sold, and it's going to lead you to the love of the thread? Even if there is such a thing, the Chinese money of five taels is also a fair price. What more do you want? ”
"Now this shop is in your hands, but you have to go through the wood, not to mention, your home from the toilet under the bed to the chopsticks on the dining table, are all taken from this shop, have you registered? On the fifth day of the first day of each month, I am reconciling with the yellow account room, what does it have to do with you? Today, you crossed over and reached out directly to get the money, who is not satisfied? ”
"Oops, I'm going to talk back!" Huang Erye screamed: "That's my uncle!" If I weren't in charge of this shop, would you think it would be so easy to reconcile the accounts?! ”
"Okay, okay, what's the point of talking about this now," Second Master Huang tilted his mouth and looked at Gu Lao's shopkeeper twice, waved his hand casually, raised his leg and was about to leave, when he suddenly saw the little monk ornament half loaded on the table.
"Huh? That's not right. This Second Master Huang's mouth was damaged enough, and his head turned quite quickly: "These are going to be wrapped, are they sold?" Did you give the money? What about money? ”
The old shopkeeper Gu was simply crying without tears. Ma Dan, these things have been on the table for more than half a year, and there are few people who ask, why did they finally sell them today, and they actually bumped into Huang Erye to make money!
As Huang Erye said, the yellow account room in charge of the reconciliation of this shop in the house is his uncle, and he should not be held accountable, but if it involves sixty taels of silver, it will be different.
"Second master," Gu Lao's shopkeeper had to accompany him with a smiling face: "This amount is too big, it's really hard to explain." You see......"
"What do you see? Don't look! Second Master Huang's eyes quickly scanned back and forth on the faces of Gu Lao's shopkeeper and Xia Xiaodong: "Where's the money?" Hand it over! ”
Xia Xiaodong sat firmly and didn't make a sound. Mu Mu, who was already standing on the side, took a step closer, next to Xia Xiaodong, looking like 'whoever dares to bully the girl, I will fight with whomever I want'.
The guy had already hid far away, shrunken and sat on a small pestle in the corner, hating to be invisible.
Gu Lao's shopkeeper stopped between Xia Xiaodong and Huang Erye, turned his head and smiled bitterly at Xia Xiaodong: "Or, this girl will buy it another day?" ”
