Chapter 584: Pawnshop Pawn Knife
Xiao Feng stepped into the pawnshop, the counter of this pawnshop was really high, so high that it reached her neck, she stretched her neck and looked inside, and there was no shadow of a person, the business here is so bad, can they afford to give a hundred taels of silver, so much money?
"Anyone?"
"Is the boss there?"
Miss Xiaofeng shouted twice, the curtain behind the counter was lifted, and a fat woman came out, "Who?" Who's calling people here? ”
She looked Miss Xiaofeng up and down, and when she saw her coarse cloth clothes, she showed a look of disdain on her face, "Are you calling someone?" What's the matter with you? ”
There was a lot of unkindness in his tone.
This woman obviously doesn't think that she will have anything valuable, she really looks down on people with dog eyes, does she look at herself in coarse cloth and look down on people, but she really seems to have no money, and it's no wonder that people look down on her.
Xiao Feng gently put the cloth bag in his hand on the counter, "Boss, I just want to take it for granted, I don't know if you want to buy this thing?" ”
The landlady looked at the cloth bag and looked very impatient, "Can't you take it out yourself?" Do you want me to do it? Really, what is it, still wrapped in layers of cloth? You farmers are really, you haven't seen anything in the world, and you don't understand anything. ”
The fat woman was chattering and counting Miss Xiaofeng, while picking up the things on the table, opening the cloth bag, and seeing a short knife with exquisite workmanship, she raised her eyes and looked at Xiaofeng again, "This thing is yours?" ”
Xiao Feng was a little weak when asked, "Yes, it's mine,"
The woman still didn't seem to believe it, "How did you get this thing?" Did you pick it up on the side of the road? ”
Picked it up, she said it was not wrong, she also picked up a big living person at that time, but, don't tell her about it, who knows if she knows the aquatic life, in case she wants to take the aquatic life away from herself, but what should I do, isn't it broken?
"This thing is mine, left by the ancestors of the family, life is not good, so I took it out and sold it, you don't accept it, if you don't accept it, then I will take it."
I'd rather not sell this thing today, than let her discover the whereabouts of Brother Shuisheng, if Brother Shui is gone, what is the use of selling this dagger?
Miss Xiaofeng reached out to the counter to get the dagger as she spoke, the fat woman frowned, blocked Xiaofeng's hand, and said: "There is only one pawnshop in this town, and the one in our house is not here today, so I can be the master for you, this thing, we can collect it in the store, but I don't know what price you want to take it for." ”
"If the price you set is reasonable, I can trade with you today."
Also, there really isn't another pawnshop in this town, which can be used as a thing, if it's not here, she has to run so far to Qiantang City, and it takes two days to go back and forth, so forget it, and there are many people and thieves in that place, it's not as good as here,
"I'm going to be a hundred taels of silver,"
Miss Xiaofeng looked at the fat woman's expression, her expression was stunned, and she didn't know if she wanted more or less.
"That, your knife, although the workmanship is good, but he is a knife after all, this kind of thing, not many people buy it, so you should not be so much silver, it is better to be fifty taels of silver."
Oh, this knife seems to be really a good knife, she is willing to pay fifty taels of silver to buy it, I didn't expect such a good thing, Brother Shui has already said that he wants to be a hundred taels of silver, Brother Shui is a rich man, this is his own thing, he must also understand the price.
"No, this thing can only be used as a hundred taels of silver, not a penny,"
This girl is still a dead eye, apparently the family has explained, told her that the price is worth a hundred taels of silver, even if all these gems are knocked down for it, it is not more than the price of a hundred taels of silver.
"One hundred taels of silver is really a lot, if you must get this price, you have to tell me, which village you are from, if I am deceived by you, then what can I do?"
It's true, one hundred taels of silver, it's an astronomical amount, enough for ordinary people to live for twenty or thirty years, put it on me, I'm not at ease,
"I'm from the Elm Forest, I didn't lie to you, you think you can give me a hundred taels of silver, then give it to me now."
The fat woman knew where this girl came from, and her heart was a little more steady, she kept thinking about what big people had been in this elm forest village in the decades before.
I can't think of it, no one mentioned it at all, forget it, I don't think so much, if I buy this dagger today, I will put it in a jewelry store tomorrow to sell it, first buy it for five hundred taels of silver, if so, no one buys it, take it to Qiantang City, sell it for one thousand taels, where to buy it at a good price, there are too many rich people there.
The fat proprietress took Xiao Feng's short knife to the back hall, Xiao Feng watched her take away the things, but she didn't see the money at all, and she couldn't help but feel a little upset in her heart, would this person take the things away and not give her money? She stood staring at the curtain, waiting, and it was lifted by the fat hands.
She didn't dare to shout, she was afraid that she would always shout, and the female proprietress she would get angry and never give herself any more money, so she stood there in a hurry and waited.
Two quarters of an hour's work, hot search
The landlady came out, and the short knife in her hand was gone, but she brought out a whole plate of silver, of all sizes, and put it on the counter.
"These are all weighed, a total of one hundred taels, you can take something and take it away."
She said as she looked at Xiao Feng's eyes as she looked at the pile of silver coins, and said, "Next door is our family's jewelry shop, you can go next door to pick up two decent pieces of jewelry, you have so much silver, it won't cost much to buy one or two pieces of jewelry." Moreover, this woman has to dress herself well, so that the men around you will look at you pleasing to the eye. ”
This last sentence said to Miss Xiaofeng's heart, yes, she never seemed to have decent jewelry, the only hairpin that counted as jewelry was still made of copper, she wrapped the silver into her cloth bag, and really walked into the next door, there were really a lot of jewelry on the cabinet next door, Miss Xiaofeng chose a hairpin made of silver, spent a tael of silver, after buying, she felt distressed for a long time The silver or two.
Then, according to the original plan, she bought a plaster and an oral decoction for Shui Sheng, as well as two plain coarse cloths, because she saw that Shui Sheng's original clothes were plain, thinking that he might not like the colorful silk and satin of the general son's brother's house, and then bought Xiao Chen a pair of cloth shoes, as well as some rice and flour,
In the end, I thought about it for a long time, and I didn't buy chickens to lay eggs, because there were too many things to buy today, and I couldn't take so many at all.
If the aquatic brother wants to eat eggs, it's not too late to buy them tomorrow.
Miss Xiaofeng finally bought some pork and beef, and Brother Shui should still eat some broth, otherwise when will this wound be healed, but when did Miss Xiaofeng worry about this, afraid that he would get better too quickly, and then left.
That night, Miss Xiaofeng made a very hearty dinner, not only made meat for Brother Shuisheng, but also broth, and washed new clothes for the pulp to change in the evening.
No matter what you eat, it's delicious or not, aquatic eating is always so gentle, so you can't tell if he likes to eat or not.
However, whether it is vegetables or meat, he only eats so much at a time, and after eating, he never eats it again, whether it is really sweet or not.
Every time Xiao Feng saw him eating, he would say to Xiao Chen's younger brother that he should learn from Brother Shuisheng, that look was really comfortable to watch, Xiao Chen was also willing to look at Shuisheng's handsome face, every time, the two sisters and brothers took turns to look at Shuisheng, and he was embarrassed to eat again.
At night, the aquatic students have been washed and laid down for a long time, but they don't see Miss Xiaofeng go back to sleep in the room outside.
What's wrong with this woman?
Shui Sheng got up and walked out of the house, but saw that Xiao Feng was digging a pit with a knife in the yard, doing it very seriously and devotedly.
Shui Sheng stood aside and asked softly, "What are you doing here?" ”
Frightened, Xiao Feng was excited, quickly turned around, saw that it was aquatic, and gasped for breath.
"Oh my God, you're scared me to death, I'm digging a pit, digging a hole." And when he had finished speaking, he dug up again and set aside the earth which he had dug up.
In the middle of the night, she doesn't sleep but wants to dig a pit here, what does this woman want to do?
"Let's dig again tomorrow, it's so late today, you should go and rest, haven't you been running around all day?"
Xiao Feng squatted there, didn't get up, and looked back at him again, "Then how can you do it?" I can't wait until tomorrow to dig again, I have to dig when it's dark, you see, I've already dug so much. ”
Shui Sheng looked in the direction of Xiao Feng's finger, and under the dim moonlight, he saw some shadows mottled, and on Xiao Feng's side, there were already about a dozen small pits.
"What do you want to do with digging holes all over the yard? Do you want to plant trees? ”
Hey, this man doesn't have any work at first glance, planting trees, planting trees is not good for such a small pit, how can it be as big as the basin itself,
"No, I want to bury ......" Speaking of this, Xiao Feng looked around, and when he saw that there was no one, he lowered his voice and continued: "I want to bury the silver coins I got back today in this pit." I thought I couldn't bury it in one place, so I dug a lot of pits and planned to bury one piece in each one."
Oh, it turns out that she wants to plant silver all over the yard, Shui Sheng thought of this, and couldn't help but smile,
"Oh, it turns out that you are going to plant silver all over the yard, but I don't know when these silver of yours will grow seedlings and when they will be able to blossom and bear fruit."
Xiao Feng saw that Shui Sheng was joking with her, and was still making fun of her, and looked back at him again, under the moonlight, as if seeing his two rows of white teeth and smiling face,
"It would be nice if I could really grow a silver tree, I would just plant a silver tree every day, and then, the silver harvested would be enough for the three of us to live a steady stream of lives."
Shui Sheng continued: "Why are you so nervous with such a little money? ”
So little? There is still ninety-four taels of silver left, and in the future we must use it to buy a piece of land, and then buy a cow to plough the land, and then we must renovate this small house again, and strive to build a big house, so that everyone can live more comfortably together.
And, after doing this, I'm afraid there will be some broken silver left in my hand.
