After passing through the two alleys, Zhao Rui came to the county street, there are really a lot of traders on both sides of the street, and most of these traders live in the county town, no longer farming, relying on craftsmanship and trading to eat.

These people, including themselves, are called "Chengguo households", which is a manifestation of the urbanization of the Southern Song Dynasty, indicating that the commodity economy has been prosperous and developed in the Southern Song Dynasty.

The pawnshop was a two-story building, which used to be a hotel, but later with the development of the economy and the influx of displaced people from the Northland, it started pawning at the same time, and it was very common at that time to buy and sell two small buildings.

Chen Changyuan, the shopkeeper of the pawnshop, stood at the door of the store at this time, and kept looking at the passers-by, as if he was looking for someone, but there were so many people coming and going, and he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy when he looked at the shopkeeper Chen all morning.

Alas, it's all my own fault, the last time Zhao Zhongzheng sold the mirror, he didn't even ask his address, and the guy who gave the silver last time can only remember approximately, and now the owner has to buy more mirrors, where can he find it.

And it's not like I haven't inquired in the past two days, but no one knows which young master Zhao Zhong is, this person seems to have disappeared out of thin air, and the master's family has issued a three-day order, if you can't find it again, I'm afraid the position of this shopkeeper will not be easy to do!

Chen Changyuan was in a low mood, his mouth was a little bitter, and he turned around and wanted to go back to the store to drink tea, when a familiar voice sounded behind him.

"Shopkeeper Chen, the contemptible people are bothering again!"

Chen Changyuan slowly turned his head in disbelief, and saw that it was really Zhao Zhongzheng who came, and the fat on his face was trembling uncontrollably.

"Oops! Brother Zhao, I'm looking forward to you! ”

As he spoke, a ball of fat rushed towards Zhao Rui.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!"

Zhao Rui was so frightened that he hurriedly stretched out his hand to resist Chen Changyuan's fat body, but because his power potential energy was too great, he was still stumbled.

"Do you still have the same mirror from last time? Our host's family is in dire need! ”

Chen Changyuan froze and asked hurriedly, and the spit stars sprayed onto Zhao Rui's face.

Oops, I'll go!

Zhao Rui hurriedly wiped his face with his sleeve.

"There really isn't that mirror last time."

"What!"

When Chen Changyuan heard the news, his face was full of despair, and he couldn't imagine that it would be such a result.

"But...... I have a better one than last time. ”

Zhao Rui pointed to his chest and said with a smile.

"Brother Zhao, how good it is for you to finish your words at one time, let's go, let's go up to the second floor!"

Chen Changyuan stroked his chest, a little unable to stand such a stimulation up and down.

But when the two sat down and Zhao Rui took out the so-called better mirror, even if he was prepared, Chen Changyuan was still stunned.

This time, the mirror brought by Zhao Rui seems to be clearer than last time, the oval mirror is like a woman's goose egg face, and the shiny metal edging decoration makes the whole mirror look luxurious and atmospheric.

In particular, the mirror surface can also be rotated at will, which made Chen Changyuan a little dumbfounded.

He carefully played with the mirror, looking at the workmanship everywhere and looking like a natural one, and felt that this was like a work of art.

"Brother Zhao, beautiful, so beautiful......"

Zhao Rui looked at it from this side, as if Chen Changyuan was praising himself in the mirror, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"What kind of metal is this, so shiny and shiny?"

"Oh, it's just a chrome strip......"

Zhao Rui's indifferent attitude made Chen Changyuan a little at a loss, such a beautiful mirror, if the owner takes it as a gift, it will inevitably be added to the official rank, even if it is brought to Lin'an City for sale, it will definitely be snapped up by those princes and nobles!

"How about two thousand taels?"

Chen Changyuan stretched out two fingers and looked at Zhao Rui with some apprehension.

"Okay, shopkeeper Chen, take the silver, I'm still in a hurry to go back."

Zhao Rui nodded, such a price is also expected, although this mirror is smaller than the one brought over last time, but the workmanship and exquisiteness are greatly surpassed.

Chen Changyuan was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly arranged for someone to take out the cash in the store.

"Brother Zhao, it's not a coincidence today, there are only 300 taels of silver, how about the rest of the Jiaozi?"

"Okay, but next time I'll cash it."

Zhao Rui thought that he had to repay the debt anyway, and the other Jiaozi used it for food and clothing at home was nothing, so he took Jiaozi and picked up the silver and was about to go out.

"Brother Zhao, wait!"

Chen Changyuan hurriedly caught up and hurriedly said: "Our master said that he wants to buy your mirror for a long time, I don't know if you still have it there?" ”

"There are more than a dozen sides!"

Zhao Rui's answer made Chen Changyuan gasp, such an ingenious mirror, even if there is only one side, it is enough to shock, I didn't expect that there were more than a dozen in his house.

After asking Zhao Rui's address, Chen Changyuan promised that two days later, he would scrape together enough money and personally come to buy it.

After saying goodbye, Zhao Rui walked out of the store with the silver.

One mirror is 2,000 taels, 40 mirrors are 80,000 taels, the silver comes too easily, Zhao Rui can't help but feel secretly refreshed.

In terms of purchasing power, one tael of silver is about equivalent to 1,000 yuan in modern times, which is equivalent to 80 million yuan in the future.

has finally entered the ranks of the rich, but Zhao Rui is still thinking about the Tartar invasion two years later, I am afraid that when the time comes, if he wants to settle down in the troubled times and develop his own power, the 80,000 taels of silver is really nothing.

As soon as Zhao Rui entered the middle courtyard, he heard Steward Li's dissatisfied voice coming from the living room.

"Steward Zhao, what do you young master mean? I kindly waited for him for three days, but I couldn't see anyone as soon as I came? You still say he's not avoiding me? ”

The old housekeeper is a relative of the same surname of the Zhao family, and he has been in the town for so many years, so Steward Li is naturally familiar with it, but now Steward Li is really a little angry.

Originally, his friendship with the Zhao family was not bad, but when the old man Zhao had an accident, he borrowed money from himself, but now it's better, not to mention it, and let a junior play him around.

The old housekeeper had to be comforted by the side, but Steward Li still blew his beard and stared.

"Hehe, what are you angry about, aren't I coming back!"

While laughing, Zhao Rui stepped into the living room.

When Steward Li saw that Zhao Rui was back, he directly slapped the last land sales contract directly on the table.

"Zhao Gongzi, the matter has come to this, I have nothing to say, you signed this contract directly, I can also give an explanation to the Li Mansion, and I can be regarded as doing my duty to you Zhao Jiaren!"

"Steward Li, don't be angry, I'll give you the silver!"

Zhao Rui felt that Steward Li was still a good person, the so-called icing on the cake was easy, it was difficult to send charcoal in the snow, when the old man was suffering, he could still help borrow money, this is an extremely benevolent person.

Zhao Rui put the bamboo basket full of silver in his hand on the ground at random, and there was a sound of silver colliding and rubbing inside, and then took out a large handful of Jiaozi from his arms.

One hundred taels of Jiaozi, Zhao Rui counted out ten and put them in front of Steward Li, and took out two silver ingots weighing five taels and pressed them on them, Steward Li's face suddenly became surprised.

You must know that the silver at this time is very valuable, if ordinary people just eat, three taels of silver is enough for a family of three to eat and drink for a month, Zhao Rui directly took out so much silver in such a short time, so that Steward Li was shocked enough.

The commodity economy of the Southern Song Dynasty was developed, not only everyone could do business, but also foreign ancients also came to the Southern Song Dynasty to trade, if a big deal was made in a short time, it was really possible to make so much money.

Steward Li stared at Zhao Rui, and secretly thought in his heart, it seems that he still has some ability, although his father is gone, and his family is surrounded by walls, but he has earned such a lot of money in a short period of time, which is enough to prove that he is a genius in business.

Thinking of this, Steward Li's impression of Zhao Rui has changed greatly, he has such a business mind at a young age, and he will definitely be prosperous in the future!

"Steward Li, these two ingots of silver are counted as interest, our Zhao family is in trouble, and your help can be regarded as my gratitude."

Zhao Rui has never been stingy with those who are kind to him, but now that the silver has arrived, and the words of thanks are there, Steward Li is a little embarrassed.

"Hehe, Zhao Gongzi is serious, I am also an old friend with your father, but it has dragged on for too long, and I can't explain it in the Li Mansion, right?"

Steward Li wanted to be good friends with Zhao Rui, and was talking about his old friendship.

"I really don't have anything to do with your father, I thought that if you were almost there today, I would make it up for you privately, who knows...... Haha, Zhao Gongzi is really young and promising! ”

Zhao Rui nodded, although he couldn't fully believe Steward Li's words, but judging from the fact that the Zhao family was killed at the beginning, and he was the only one who helped with silver, he really deserved to be a friend of Old Man Zhao.

The old housekeeper stroked his chest at this time, and secretly sighed that it was really the blessing of the old lady, so that the young master could repay the money in time, otherwise this family would really have nothing.

Zhao Rui looked at Steward Li and suddenly had an idea.

"Steward Li, if you sit down for a while, I will give you a thank you gift!"

"Oh, what a thank you gift, I received your heart......"

Ignoring Steward Li's excuse, Zhao Rui ran to the backyard with a bamboo basket after speaking.

After placing the silver, Zhao Rui ran into the ancestral hall, found two lighters from the woven bag, stuffed one into his sleeve, and stuffed a bottle of chili water into it after thinking about it.

Zhao Rui returned to the living room with a lighter in his hand.

"Zhao Gongzi, you are so polite, give me silver again, what kind of gift do you want to give......"

Steward Li felt that Zhao Rui was also respectful to him, and he had experienced a change, so how could he be embarrassed to accept the gift. When he was about to excuse himself, Zhao Rui directly pressed the lighter in his hand.

"Smack!"

A yellow and blue flame appeared in Zhao Rui's hand out of thin air.
