Chapter 2 Tonight and Night
Since you are not a gentleman, it is not easy to survive in this era.
Chen Shou's stomach was empty, thinking of the hairpin that Lu'er gave him, Mrs. Su's family was rich, and she was a widowed widow, and most of the family's business was her alone.
The use of her personal maid is likely to have been used by Mrs. Su herself, and she will be rewarded to Lu'er, which must be of great value.
took out the hairpin from his arms, carefully looked at the texture and pattern, and Chen Shou took the hairpin back into his arms.
Chen Shou walked and looked left and right, and suddenly saw a slender young woman in front of him, asking the price in front of a stall, so he stepped forward and asked:
"Excuse me, this girl, where is there a jewelry store nearby?"
This slightly abrupt way of asking for directions made the young woman frown, and when she turned around and saw Chen Shou's appearance, her anger disappeared.
The young man was indescribably handsome, especially when he was still wearing coarse linen clothes, which made people a little closer.
The young woman blushed and said, "One hundred and ten steps forward, there is a Jade Xuan, which is a jewelry shop." ”
Chen Shou smiled and thanked him, and walked forward, sure enough, there was a Jade Xuan.
On the vermilion shelf, all kinds of jade are dazzling and brilliant.
The guys in this kind of place are used to looking at people's clothes, and although Chen Shou is wearing tattered clothes on the outside, there is a trace of precious brocade fabric inside.
Looking at his appearance again, the young man suddenly showed a look of understanding, and recognized that this was a rich kid, deliberately dressed like this, to find a sense of excitement and novelty.
Chen Shou took in the young man's expression, and after a little thought, he knew it in his chest, and secretly calculated in his heart that this misunderstanding was a good thing for him.
The young man nodded secretly, bent down to meet him, "Hey, this son, what jewelry do you want to buy?" This store is a shop on the row of Liangzhou City, you can see, even if you see, are genuine. ”
Chen Shou didn't move, and said lightly: "I'll take a look at it casually first." ”
Chen Shou turned around, and sure enough, he found a few hairpins of similar style, and after asking the price slightly, the guy smiled: "Son's good eyesight, this is all good jade, delicate meat, exquisite workmanship, if it is given to a beauty, I guarantee that you get what you want, hehe..."
"Less nonsense, just say how much money."
The man's eyes rolled, "Only fifty taels of silver will be charged for each branch." ”
"Hmm..." Chen Shou nodded, and didn't say to buy it, nor did he say not to buy it.
Seeing that he was about to go out, the man hurriedly said, "The minimum is thirty taels, which is really the lowest price." ”
Chen Shou sighed, stepped out of the door, and didn't look back.
I don't know this era at all, so it's strange if I go to a pawnshop rashly and don't get slaughtered.
After going to the jewelry store and understanding the price, I felt a little bit at the bottom.
After walking a few steps forward, there was a pawnshop, Chen Shou deliberately pulled out a little bit of the cloth woven from brocade inside, and walked to the pawnshop with arrogant steps.
After entering, he took out the hairpin and said directly: "Twenty-five taels, don't bargain, do you want it or not?" ”
The shopkeeper of the pawnshop looked at him around, pursed his mouth, and snorted, just about to lower the price, Chen Shou raised his leg and was about to leave.
The shopkeeper hurriedly stopped him, took the hairpin in his hand and looked at it, "You are a young man, and your temperament is really anxious." ”
Chen Shou said with a smile: "This bit of silver is a small matter, but the master's time is precious, how can I have time to ink with you." How can you fool some nouveau riche who are supposed to be rich? The things that the master handled, there are not a thousand but eight hundred, this thing I bought at the beginning of fifty taels, it is estimated that someone has been cheated a little, and I don't care. If you come across a generous one, you can sell it for fifty taels. Don't hide it, I ate flowers and wine and rewarded the girl today, and my money is a little tight, otherwise I can cheapen you? How, do you want to? ”
When the shopkeeper saw his style, coupled with the underwear that was not covered, he was like the guy in the jewelry store, and decided that this was a gentleman.
He laughed and said, "Just make a friend, how about the son who will come to patronize the shop when he has something to sell in the future?" ”
"Well said, well said." Chen Shou threw it at will, and the shopkeeper hurriedly and carefully caught it.
"Come on, give this son, take twenty-five taels of silver,"
Chen Shou frowned, if he really went to drink flower wine, he would definitely take out a ingots to reward the girl, but unfortunately he didn't have that leisure, and it was inconvenient to spend it. He waved his hand and said, "Get me some loose silver taels, don't tattoo silver." ”
The shopkeeper didn't know what quirks these boys had, so he just smiled and agreed, and told the guy to get the scattered silver.
Walking out of the pawnshop, I had twenty-five taels of silver in my arms, although it was less than two catties, but I also felt heavy, which was a huge amount of money.
For the former Chen family, it was enough for the whole family to chew for a few years. Of course, for Mrs. Su, it is estimated that the money for a meal is not enough.
"The original Chen Shou died of eating soft rice, but I didn't expect that my first pot of gold also started from eating soft rice."
Thinking of Lu'er's charming figure and face, Chen Shou secretly clenched his fists, how could the eldest husband be depressed and live under the people for a long time, no matter what era it was, he had to mix it up.
After setting up the ambition of the bird, Chen Shou touched his stomach, and was feeling a little hungry, when he looked up and happened to see a small wine shop.
"Little Er, let's have a plate of flowers and hairs."
Xiao Er put a white towel on his shoulder, bent over and asked with a smile: "Guest officer, what is this flower and hair?" ”
"Peanuts and edamame."
"It's... Peanuts are a rarity, but there is really no small shop, and the villain has never heard of it. Edamame is available, do you want to cook it or steam it? ”
Chen Shou nodded, there were no peanuts in his heart, this was definitely not after the Ming Dynasty, I don't know which dynasty was tampered with.
The costumes of the people on the road obviously have some Tang Dynasty relics, especially the women of Daqi, and the white flowers are very eye-catching.
When you have the opportunity to meet a reader, you may be able to solve your doubts.
"Forget it, let's have a roast chicken and a pot of good wine."
Xiao Er smiled happily at this time, "Okay, the guest officer will sit down for a while, and the wine and food will come up." ”
After a while, Xiao Er brought a roast chicken wrapped in oiled paper, plus a small pot of wine.
"Bah, bah, bah", this wine is really hard to drink, but it's a pity that I can't make wine, otherwise I can make a small profit.
Although he inherited Chen Shou's memory, this kid doesn't read poetry and books, and he doesn't even know the general trend of the world today. I only know that this dynasty is called the Great Qi Dynasty, and the royal family is surnamed Zhao.
What the hell is this Great Qi Dynasty, it is obviously not a historical dynasty that he is familiar with, and it is impossible to use historical knowledge to pretend to be a god.
Where to go next?
Chen Shou took a sip of bitter wine over and over again, and thought: Although the Chen family is down-and-out, they always have to go back to see, no matter what dynasty it is, the Central Plains is dominated by clans.
The rain is widespread, and the grass without roots is not moistened.
After raising his head and taking a sip, Chen Shou took a pack of roast chicken, sighed, and discharged a piece of loose silver from his sleeve, "Xiao Er, look for money!" ”
