Chapter 31 The Prince of Qin

"The surname is Sun, it is the shopkeeper of this alum building, I heard that the two of you are going to sell peaches, maybe you will show me the goods first?"

"It should." When Wentai answered, he had already lifted the clothes covered with bamboo blue.

Shopkeeper Sun took a look and saw that the peaches inside were really fresh and full, so he said: "The appearance is really good, but I don't know the taste.....

Before he finished speaking, Wen Shu quickly took out a peach from the basket and handed it to him: "The shopkeeper can taste it." ”

She had already tasted these peaches at home, and she thought they were better than the peaches sold on the streets of Tokyo in spring and summer, so she was very confident.

Shopkeeper Sun was not polite, took the peach and wiped it on the cuff at will, and then took a bite of it.

At this time, the peaches are not fully ripe, and the taste is still sweet and refreshing.

The taste of sweet relish spread between his lips and teeth, and the shopkeeper Sun was shocked, but his face was silent, and he was about to negotiate the price with the Wen family's father and daughter, but at this time, the circle behind him suddenly burst into applause.

"Qin Gongzi is very skilled, Yuan admires it." A clear voice came.

"Promise, promise, I'm thirsty after playing for a long time, Shopkeeper Sun, hurry up and bring some fragrant tea and fruits." As the words fell, the crowd in a circle dispersed, and a slightly chubby, brocade-clad young man walked out of it with a triumphant face.

"Hey." Shopkeeper Sun hurriedly responded, and hurriedly summoned Xiao Er to serve tea and fruit snacks.

It's just that the young man's eyes were sharp, and when he saw that he seemed to be eating something in his hand, he jumped over in a few steps, and sighed after snatching it: "I said that Shopkeeper Sun, you are not kind, you don't want to give us some fresh peaches, but patronize yourself to hide here and eat." ”

Shopkeeper Sun apologized again and again, and said with a smile: "Gongzi Qin misunderstood Sun, this peach was just sent by the father and daughter, I was trying it, and I haven't even had time to talk about the price." ”

When Qin Gongzi heard this, he smiled: "Try it, I'm good at this thing, if there are any peaches, bring me one." ”

Wen Shu saw that this son was dressed extraordinarily, and the family background of the people who could come to Alum Tower to eat would not be bad, so he hurriedly took out the last peach from the basket and handed it over: "There is only this one, if the son wants to taste it, take it." ”

When Qin Jingyang heard this, he was happy, and unceremoniously stepped forward to take it, inserted it on his clothes and ate it.

After tasting a few bites, he nodded again and again: "Well, the taste is not bad, and it is considered a good quality among peaches, which is similar to the peach offered by Taihu Lake in summer." ”

As soon as Wen Shu heard this, he was secretly happy in his heart, if he could get this noble son to praise him, there would be a drama about this price increase, and besides, this Qin Gongzi pointed out this matter in person, and the shopkeeper of Alum Lou just wanted to deceive them into not knowing how to lower the price, and he couldn't.

After eating the peaches in three or two bites, Qin Jingyang was a little unsatisfied, and shouted at the father and daughter: "Do you still have this peach, if you have one, send some more, this one is too unpleasant to eat." ”

Wen Shu said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, there are many more at home, but I don't know how much the son wants?" ”

Tai Jingyang took the tea handed by Xiao Er, poured a few sips, waved his hand and said, "Feel free, let's send one hundred and eighty first." ”

Wen Shu was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately looked forward to Ai Ai's words: "There are one hundred and eighty, but the price is ......"

Qin Jingyang's hand drinking tea paused, and looked at her in disbelief: "You care about me asking for money......

Wen Shu's heart suddenly, what do you mean!

Doesn't this son's still want to give money!

At this time, Yuan Gongzi, who had been silent all the time, said in a timely voice: "Qin Gongzi is really funny, you want other people's peaches, and people want you to ask for money." “

Qin Jingyang is not a fool, of course he knows the truth that it costs money to buy things, but he is never big, and there are countless people around him who are complimentary, especially in recent years, with his father's promotion to the privy envoy to become the chief executive, there are more people around him.

He basically treats others when he goes out every day, and when he rarely pays for it, he listens to it suddenly, and his face is stunned, and he feels a little unable to get off the stage.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the shopkeeper Sun was busy playing a round game: "Yuan Gongzi said that he laughed, this father and daughter originally wanted to sell peaches to the restaurant, since Qin Gongzi also said that this peach tasted good, then Sun Mou made the decision to buy this peach, and after they sent it, so that all the sons present today could taste it." “

After that, he turned to Wen Shu's father and daughter and said, "I don't know how many peaches like this there are in your family?" ”

Wentai bowed his head and said: "Not much, only a hundred." ”

Shopkeeper Sun nodded: "Well, then send them all, I bid thirty-five wen one, what do you think?" ”

Wen Shu knew that Shopkeeper Sun had helped them out of the siege, and if the price was raised again, it would be a little ignorant, and Shopkeeper Sun's price was also kind.

So after glancing at her father, she nodded and said, "Thank you, shopkeeper Sun, we'll go back and get it." ”

Shopkeeper Sun nodded slightly, and explained: "Later, the two of you will send the things directly to the west door, where there will be someone to count and settle." ”

The father and daughter nodded and took their leave of the alum tower.

On the way back, Wen Shu said with palpitations: "It seems that the business of this big restaurant is not easy to do, and Fang Cai doesn't know whose son it is, he is domineering and unreasonable. “

Wen Tai also sighed, "Yes, you really have to be distracted to deal with these nobles, but fortunately, the shopkeeper Sun of the Alum Tower is a kind person, and today is thanks to him." ”

Wen Shu nodded: "Let's also eat a trench and grow wise." ”

When they got home, the father and daughter took out the peaches and counted them, eliminating a few that were crushed and a few that were too good-looking, and the last point, a total of one hundred and five.

The counted peaches were carefully put into the basket covered with old clothes, and then another piece of clothing was put on top to try to cover up, and the father and daughter carried the basket out of the door, and hired a car at the corner of the street to send the peaches to the alum building.

When I arrived at the corner door on the west side of the alum tower, sure enough, someone was guarding outside, and after listening to them explain their intentions, the person was not embarrassed, and after checking and confirming that it was correct, he paid them the money.

The father and daughter of the Wen family knew the way of doing business, and they did not completely count it according to one hundred and five, but calculated it according to one hundred and five, and only collected three whole dollars, and the remaining five peaches were only said to be given to the stewards who were present for settlement and counting.

When the stewards saw them doing this, their faces became a little sincere.

took the money and hid it carefully, the father and daughter were not in a hurry to go back, anyway, they had nothing to do, so they planned to go back while shopping, just as she was thinking about what dishes to buy for the Sun family to dinner another day.

Originally, when he counted the peaches, Wen Shu also thought about whether to send a few to the Sun family, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was inappropriate.

Even if they said that they were bought in a restaurant, the Sun family might not believe it, because how could a family like them go to a restaurant to eat for no reason, and even if they did, they would not be willing to buy such expensive peaches to come home.

When they were counting in the alum building, some stewards curiously asked them where the peaches came from, and why there were still fresh peaches at this time.

Fortunately, the father and daughter thought of the rhetoric at home, and now they only said that the ancestors handed down a method of keeping fresh, which can temporarily store the fruits in spring and summer to maintain freshness, but this process is extremely cumbersome and the number that can be stored is not much, so there are so many hundred.

Later, he complained half-truthfully, only saying that this method could not make money at all, and he had to serve every day, and he had to post a lot of manual work, which was really not cost-effective, and he would never do it again next year.

Those stewards didn't know whether to believe it or not, and they didn't get to the bottom of it anyway.
