Chapter 196 Procurement
This lady, you want so many goods in this mouth, where can I get it for you! ”
The shopkeeper of a shop stood in the middle of the shop, his face full of embarrassment. And in front of him at this moment were Yu Panxi and Xiao Chumo, who hurried into the city.
In the shopkeeper's opinion, as soon as the two of them came in, they asked for an astonishing amount of goods, and they were just dried meat and other things that were not sold much on weekdays. Is this like a normal customer who comes to buy something?
If it weren't for the fact that they were well dressed and the jewelry on the woman's head and wrist was expensive, he would almost have suspected that they were specially sent by a rival to cause trouble. It is precisely because of this that he did not get angry directly, but was willing to explain in a good voice.
Hearing him speak like this, Yu Panxi was not angry. After all, the amount they need to buy is indeed a bit amazing, and it is normal for the shopkeeper in front of them to be reluctant to believe it.
However, after they entered the city, they inquired, and this shop was already the largest food store in the city. If even he finds it difficult, he is afraid that the last thing he bought will not even be enough for the first batch of empty carriages.
"I know it's probably a bit too much, but we're in a hurry. Look, shopkeeper, if you don't have enough in your storehouse, can you help us buy it from other stores in the city? ”
Yu Panxi did not give up, but with a move in his mind, he made another suggestion to the shopkeeper.
After all, they weren't familiar with the place, and the shopkeeper seemed to have been living in the city for a long time. If he had done this, it would have been much more efficient. They don't have to ask one store after another.
Hearing her words, the shopkeeper was obviously a little hesitant. He didn't want to give up such a rare big order easily, but he was a little worried that if the two people in front of him were really playing tricks on him, the loss of the acquisition would have to be borne by himself.
Yu Panxi is very good at observing words and feelings, and it is easy to see his concerns at this time. Regardless of the fact that as long as the other party did not refuse, it meant that there was still a possibility of this matter, so he added: "Of course, if you do things for us, the benefits are naturally indispensable." ”
As she spoke, she took out two silver tickets from the purse around her waist and placed them on the table beside her very casually: "Here are one hundred and fifty taels of silver tickets, if the shopkeeper is willing to help us purchase these things, please accept the silver tickets." One hundred taels of them will be counted as a deposit, and the other fifty taels will be used as your hardship fee for helping with errands. ”
Fifty taels!
As soon as he heard what Yu Panxi said later, the shopkeeper's eyes immediately widened.
Although he could only see that these two people did not look like the lord who would be short of money, this move was such a big move, which really scared him.
You know, even if his shop is the largest in the city, he really can't make so much money in a month. What's more, the other party still calculates the fifty taels as a hardship fee, and as for those who buy things, they are calculated separately.
Such a good thing is almost tantamount to pie in the sky. Businessman, who thinks they have a lot of money? After listening to her words, the shopkeeper didn't even hesitate too much, and directly accepted the two silver tickets on the table.
"Since Madame intends to leave this matter to me, I will do my best to do it. It's just that I don't know so much goods, when will Mrs. want it? Do you need to hire some additional carriages? ”
He saw that there was no maid or anything behind the two of them, and he must have already found a place to stay in the city, so he should have brought his own carriage. But with so many things, one or two carriages are not enough.
Of course, Yu Panxi heard the little abacus in his heart, didn't he just want to help her hire some carriages to accumulate favors for herself and make more oil and water at the same time? But alas, it may be about to disappoint him.
"The carriage is not necessary, we have our own. Because there were so many of them, they stopped outside the city. However, if there are enough people in the shopkeeper's shop, we can send someone to help us send it to us at that time, and this salary will naturally be available. ”
Although she rejected the shopkeeper's proposal, she threw out a little other sweetness. Delivery is what the store should do, and she offered to pay an additional salary, presumably no matter how tight the time is, the shopkeeper will not want to give up this business again.
"It's a bit unpleasant, because our husband and wife are still in a hurry, so we may have to go into the city early tomorrow morning to pick up the goods, I don't know if the shopkeeper can be ready?"
Sure enough, hearing Yu Panxi's words, the shopkeeper did hesitate. But in the end, he still didn't refuse, but patted his chest and promised: "Madam, you can just laugh, although my old Hu doesn't have a big business in this city, he still has connections." One night is enough! ”
"Then there's Shopkeeper Lao. I'll bring the rest of the money with me when I pick it up tomorrow. ”
Since the shopkeeper surnamed Hu has already agreed, she doesn't have to stay here for a long time. As for how the shopkeeper will use to collect the goods for her in the future, it is none of her business.
Coming out of the shop, Yu Panxi turned her head and saw Xiao Chumo, who was still speechless, staring at her, and her lips were drawn up in a shallow arc at some point. It's just that the arc is not very obvious, but no matter how you look at it, it feels like a smirk.
The matter of procurement has been explained, Yu Panxi naturally remembered what he had teased himself before, so he raised his eyebrows and deliberately asked: "Why do you look at me like this, aren't you blaming me for spending money indiscriminately?" ”
The fifty taels of silver as a reward is indeed a lot, and if it is changed to the wife of another family, I am afraid that it will be ten or twenty taels of silver for rewarding if it breaks the sky. But Yu Panxi knew very well in her heart that Xiao Chumo was not short of money, and he would not be angry with her because of this bit of silver.
Besides, she had to buy so much food, and the time given was too tight. If you don't make a generous move, I'm afraid that the shopkeeper Hu won't agree so kindly.
Xiao Chumo was really helpless about his wife's words, reached out and scratched the tip of her nose affectionately, and said in his mouth: "Naughty, you know that I don't mean that." If Madame wants something, just buy it, I have a general's mansion, and I don't lack this bit of silver. ”
"That's nice, I didn't buy it for myself."
Hearing his words, Yu Panxi couldn't help muttering. Xiao Chumo had good ears, and he easily heard such an arrogant sentence into his ears, and couldn't help laughing.
"Panxi, but you're complaining that I didn't buy you a gift? Now just go and see what you like and buy it! ”
In fact, along the way, he has given Yu Panxi a lot of things, and when he heard this sentence again, he was naturally coaxed to be happy.
