A big event happened in the city of Tokyo this morning. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
A strange two-story building with a large area appeared on Sakura Street in Tokyo City, and the pedestrians on the street were very surprised, because the place was still a large open space the night before, and a building suddenly appeared this morning.
What's even more surprising is that from this building, a dozen people brought out a large pile of crystal glass utensils and placed them at the door, and then a large sign at the door reads in Japanese: 'Goods for sale inside'
At this time, some people couldn't help but be curious and wanted to walk in and take a look, but they were stopped as soon as they walked to the door, and the person guarding the door said in Japanese that if they wanted to go in, they had to go to the money bank next to them to exchange for Jiaozi banknotes, at least in exchange for a hundred taels of Jiaozi, before they were eligible to enter.
This is interesting, where do the pedestrians on the street have so much money, so they have to gather around the supermarket to point and communicate, and some people are curious to run to the money bank next to it to see.
This money house is also a very interesting building, the appearance is very special, all around the stone wall, but it looks very natural, someone walked into this money house, and found that there was a thick glass across a high platform, and then there was a small window, only to reach in.
Behind the high platform, several men in dark blue hanfu sat quietly, and in front of them were placed a black object that emitted light.
As a bustling street second only to Suzaku Road, Sakura Road still has a high daily passenger flow, so there are more and more people gathering at the door, but none of them enter the money village to exchange silver for banknotes.
As the number of people surged, the cherry blossom road in front of these two buildings was almost blocked, and this was the first person to walk into the money village to ask.
"Hello, I'm Ichiro Teng Natsume, I want to ask, can I buy those glass cups at the door next to me with silver from here?" The man who was questioning was a middle-aged man, dressed in a businessman's satin garment, and he looked very shrewd, and when he asked, his eyes also flashed, as if he had found something very good.
"The transparent glass cup you see at the entrance of the Tokyo supermarket, a cup is one hundred taels of silver, you have to pay one hundred taels of silver here to exchange for the Jiaozi currency of the New Song Kingdom from the money bank, and then you can go to the supermarket next to it to buy it."
"Okay, then I'll exchange one hundred taels for the one you just said." The middle-aged man couldn't wait to open a cloth bag from behind him, and the inconspicuous cloth bag was actually full of silver. "You weigh it, it's exactly a hundred taels here."
The staff member sitting on the opposite side of the high platform took the heavy cloth bag from the window, then took out all the silver in it and put it on the electronic scale next to it.
"Ten pounds and six taels." The staff of the money bank said over and over again that he took down a part of the silver from the electronic scale, and then handed back a few pieces of broken silver from the window and said, "This is the extra six taels." ”
After receiving the broken silver, the merchant was slightly stunned, while the staff member on the other side of the high platform stared at the glowing blackboard in front of him with a calm face, and kept tapping his fingers on a black block with many small protrusions under the front of the blackboard.
Soon he finished it, only to see that on his left-hand side, a machine was slowly spitting out a small piece of paper outside, tearing off the small paper, and the staff said in Japanese: "Please take this one hundred taels of currency and this receipt, go to the supermarket next to you to shop, I wish you a happy shopping." ”
"Ahh Is that okay? The middle-aged businessman asked with confidence, and the one hundred taels of silver that were originally heavy in his hand were actually replaced by two small pieces of paper, which made him a little nervous.
"That's fine, you just need to take this Jiaozi bill and this receipt to the supermarket next to it, and you can buy something." The staff patiently explained.
As soon as he said that he could buy something, the middle-aged businessman suddenly came back to his senses, he clutched the two tickets in his hand tightly, for fear that the small note would disappear at once, and then he trotted to the door of the supermarket in three steps instead of two steps, picked up a glass and was about to leave.
"Hey! Who are you! How can you take something without paying! ”
The middle-aged businessman was immediately stopped by the person in charge of maintaining law and order at the door.
Seeing a few people surrounding him viciously, the middle-aged businessman was also a little afraid, and he said loudly: "I... I'm paying! I paid a hundred taels of silver! ”
"Paid?" The one who led the way around asked, "Did you go to the money bank to exchange the Jiaozi banknotes?" ”
"Changed!" As if he had found a rescuer, the middle-aged businessman hurriedly raised the card in his hand.
Seeing Jiaozi, the person who took the lead also nodded and said, "Since you have exchanged money, then this customer, please give me the Jiaozi in your hand, and then take away the glass cup in your hand." ”
Hearing what the leader said, the middle-aged merchant also hurriedly handed him the two pieces of paper in his hand.
"Oh, you just need to hand it over to me, and please keep this exchange ticket." The person who took the lead said politely.
Carefully taking a note, the middle-aged businessman hugged the glass cup in his hand with some fear, as if he was afraid that someone would snatch it away.
But seeing that he successfully got the glass cup, the audience who was originally watching the excitement around didn't care, and all of a sudden they all surrounded him, forming a circle around the middle-aged businessman.
"Well, do you know how to buy this glass cup? How much did you spend? ”
"One hundred taels of silver..."
"It's only one hundred taels?! Some time ago, this kind of glass cup in Tokyo was sold for two hundred taels, and it was priceless! ”
"yes, yes, if I didn't know that this thing is valuable, I wouldn't have taken such a big risk to buy this thing." The middle-aged businessman wiped the sweat from his forehead and said excitedly.
"So what the hell is this thing selling?" There were also people in merchant costumes around who asked curiously.
"Actually, it's nothing, just go to the money bank next to it, give him the silver, and he will give you a money ticket, and you can go to exchange for a glass cup with the money ticket...."
People are afraid of being the first, as long as the first person who dares to eat crabs tries it, it will be much easier for those who follow the trend later.
Seeing that someone successfully bought this kind of glass cup, four or five people immediately walked to the money village, according to the arrangement of the money village security personnel, they lined up smoothly, and then they all exchanged a hundred taels of silver, and then immediately rushed to the door of the supermarket, directly handed over the ticket to exchange for the glass......
