Chapter 187: Refugees
He was shocked in his heart, wasn't that Yaoyao's personal jade pendant?
"This son, everything has been counted, do you want to be it?" The little guy looked at these things and added up to a lot of money, and he was also very polite to Shen Yun.
Shen Yun nodded, his mind moved slightly, and he asked the little guy again: "That jade pendant looks good, I don't know who is responsible for it?" ”
"Oh, that jade pendant, it seems to be a little lady." The little girl didn't think much about it, and directly described the appearance of the little lady to Shen Yun.
Shen Yun's eyes deepened, and he was even more sure in his heart, that was Yaoyao.
He couldn't say what he felt in his heart, but he felt a lot of guilt, Yaoyao was a woman who was running the family business, but she had not yet gained fame.
He took the liquidated cash and went straight to the man who was playing with the jade pendant.
Shen Yun inquired with the little guy, and this person was the owner of the pawnshop. So he didn't sell it, and said directly to the boss: "Boss, I see that your jade pendant is very good, I don't know if you can sell it to me?" ”
The boss looked at Shen Yun's appearance, he was bookish, but he didn't look like a person who liked to play with jade.
His eyes twitched, as if he had guessed a possibility.
Seeing that Shen Yun was talking to the little guy just now, he glanced at the little guy.
The little guy immediately came over and whispered a few times, but the boss just nodded.
"No, this jade pendant is not for sale!" The boss said deliberately, as soon as he said this, he saw that Shen Yun's face really changed, and he secretly had a bottom in his heart.
"I can make a high price!" Shen Yun did not hesitate, he clenched the purse in his hand, a little excited.
The boss saw that Shen Yun seemed to care about this jade pendant, and he was even more happy in his heart.
He raised his eyebrows and said, stretching out a finger to compare, "Then a hundred taels of silver!" ”
When Shen Yun heard this, his face was even worse, and his teeth suddenly tightened. Although he was willing to pay a high price, he didn't expect that the pawnshop owner was also a black-hearted. It's more than twice as valuable as this jade pendant!
But what about the loss? Yaoyao didn't become a jade pendant because of herself?
He felt even more guilty when he thought about the one-month deadline.
Gritting his teeth, he took out a hundred taels of silver, "Okay, I'll redeem this jade pendant." ”
The boss was overjoyed, and the smile on his face couldn't be hidden, so he gave the jade pendant to Shen Yun in a good voice and sent him out of the door.
Shen Yun is a little awkward, everyone in the world is like this, he always feels heavy when he sees money.
He walked all the way home, with little silver left in his hand, and put the jade pendant in his purse.
"Shen Yun? Where have you been? Tian Jiyao didn't raise her head, only listened to the familiar footsteps, and asked out loud.
Shen Yun looked at Tian Jiyao's serious appearance under the candlelight, pursed his lips, and then pretended to be relaxed and said, "I went out for a walk, and my body was a little tired these days." ”
Tian Jiyao believed Shen Yun's words, and she looked up slightly apologetically, "I've really worked hard for you these past few days!" ”
"Don't say such things!" Shen Yun was a little displeased, walked to Tian Jiyao and sat down, and looked at her seriously, "I am your husband, so naturally I want to hold up a piece of heaven for you." ”
Seeing that he was so serious, Tian Jiyao couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Okay, well, you are the eldest husband, and the little woman will thank the eldest husband for his protection?"
Shen Yun looked at Tian Jiyao's hippie smiling face, and deliberately kept a straight face, but it didn't take long for him to purse his lips and laugh.
He quietly held the jade pendant in his hand and never regretted it.
It's just that his hand was finally taken from the jade pendant, and he continued to joke with Tian Jiyao quietly.
Wait a while and give it again, this jade pendant, it's not too late.
It's just that Tian Jiyao was talking and talking, and suddenly lost his mind, looking at the account book in front of him in a daze.
"What's wrong? But what's going on? ”
Shen Yun touched her head with a hint of pampering.
Seeing Tian Jiyao's slightly frowning brows, her heart seemed to be knotted, and she was a little uncomfortable.
"I want to buy a shipment." Tian Jiyao hesitated again and again but spoke.
"Oh?" Shen Yun was curious, why was it difficult for his little lady to buy this matter?
He played with Tian Jiyao's hair and wrapped it around his hands.
"This batch of goods may not be very good...... Tian Jiyao pursed her eyebrows, thinking of what happened this afternoon, and her heart was panicked.
This afternoon, she looked at the map of the neighborhood, and it was mostly rainy and rainy, and she wanted to see if there would be a lot of water nearby, but she found that she was a little far away from the river, and the river in the town couldn't make much splash at all.
However, she noticed that there was a county town with a very bad location, although the soil was fertile, the terrain was flat, and it became a well-known and wealthy county with a good harvest, but because the location was too close to the river, it was prone to flooding.
Guancang is not in that rich county, and once there is a flood, it must pass through the county where Tian Jiyao is located.
It has been raining a lot these days, and if there is heavy rain, the river will inevitably overflow.
She also had no intention of inserting willows, but she didn't expect to realize such a business opportunity.
So she decisively decided to take in rice.
But Steward Wang disagreed, "Young lady, you are too hasty like this!" Not to mention whether there is a flood or not, but if there is, how do you know that those people will pass through us? ”
Tian Jiyao had to check the terrain herself, but it took a lot of time to come and go.
Steward Wang, they still didn't support it, so Tian Jiyao also wondered if he was a little out of reality as he imagined.
When Shen Yun heard this, he hurriedly went to find the nearby terrain map, thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I think what the lady said is very reasonable!" ”
Tian Jiyao couldn't believe it, "You support me?" ”
Shen Yun nodded with a smile, "The lady's own analysis makes sense, even if the imperial court takes the initiative to send grain, it will have to be delayed for a few days, and it is also beneficial for us to be closer than the official warehouse." ”
didn't expect Shen Yun to support herself, Tian Jiyao was moved in her heart, and the more she looked at Shen Yun, the more she liked it.
Not long after, it really rained heavily, and many nearby counties were affected, and Fufu County became a refugee county overnight.
The government was not doing well, and the food was delayed, so the people spontaneously went to the official warehouse to wait, which inevitably passed through many other county seats.
Tian Jiyao looked at the displaced people, and her heart was sour.
All rice shops are out of stock one after another, and even if the price is raised, they are all sold out, and after Tian Jiyao sold the rice that was put out, he looked at the crying child, and his heart was even more unbearable.
"Steward Wang, lower the price, we sell it at a low price!"
Steward Wang naturally couldn't see this kind of natural disaster at his age, and he also agreed with Tian Jiyao's behavior. What's more, the rice shops everywhere are out of stock, only the Shen family shop has them, and they can make a lot of money at high prices and low prices, so why bother to make black money at high prices?
A person suddenly walked up and hugged Tian Jiyao from behind.
Tian Jiyao wanted to push Shen Yun away, with a flush on her face.
"So many people watching! Shen Yun, let go! ”
