Boss Yan raised the price to four thousand taels of silver, but unfortunately Mrs. Gu still didn't agree.

Boss Yan said: "Old lady, this price is already very high, I don't think anyone in Taifeng County will pay a higher price than me." ”

Old Madam Gu had a very resolute attitude, and she couldn't miss a penny of five thousand taels of silver.

Boss Yan saw that Mrs. Gu didn't give in for half a step, so he immediately said goodbye and left.

Qingshu asked, "Grandma, does this Boss Yan think that we are in a hurry to use money, so he took the opportunity to lower the price?" ”

Old Madam Gu nodded and said, "It's not all. ”

Qingshu didn't understand.

Mrs. Gu said: "If you buy a single shop, three thousand taels of silver is already considered a high price, and four thousand taels of silver will not be bought by others." But our tea shop makes a profit of seven or eight hundred taels of silver every year, and the sale price of four thousand taels of silver is low. ”

Qingshu thought about it seriously and said, "Grandma, what if he doesn't buy it?" “”

Old Madam Gu smiled and said, "As long as he knows that we are not in a hurry to use the money, he will come to the door." ”

"Grandma, but if we sell silk shops or farm products, others will also lower the price."

Old Mrs. Gu touched Qingshu's head and said, "Don't sell shops and farm properties, we will be things." ”

"Ah......h

Old Madam Gu said with a smile: "Those bulky ones that can't be taken away can just be taken away." ”

In addition to the gold and silver, other things are really hard to carry. But thinking of these good things at home, Qingshu was a little distressed: "Grandma, what will happen to the things at home when the time comes?" ”

Taking it to a pawnshop will definitely be depressed, and it is not cost-effective.

Old Lady Gu lowered her voice and said, "Those valuable and easy to carry will be transported to Fucheng first, and these things will be transported to the capital after settling in the capital in the future." ”

If it's bulky and hard to move, it can only be sold.

Qingshu is a little painful, but this is also a helpless thing, if you want to go, you must give up a lot of things.

The next morning, the chief housekeeper of the Gu Mansion went to the pawnshop with three large boxes of things.

Handing the deserved eight hundred taels of silver to Gu Heping, the chief butler said: "The old lady said that you should take the eight hundred taels of silver to pay off the debt first, and in addition, she will give you another four thousand taels of silver, but the four thousand taels of silver will be given to you in five days." ”

A few fluttering silver tickets, Gu Heping felt that they weighed a thousand pounds.

When Mrs. Gu heard that three boxes of things were only eight hundred taels of silver, she said, "Why is it so little?" ”

The big butler said: "The people at the pawnshop know that we are in a hurry to use the money, so they are pushing down the price very much. ”

Lowering prices is one thing, and what is sent is not anything valuable.

Gu Xian said angrily: "They are taking advantage of the fire to rob. ”

Mrs. Gu was not surprised by this result, and said, "Who let others know that we are in a hurry to use money!" Open the door to do business, how can you not make a lot of money when you get this opportunity. ”

If it was her, it would be just as hard to lower the price.

Gu Xian asked, "Mother, what should I do now?" There is also a gap of four thousand taels of silver! ”

Old Lady Gu said, "Let Ah Zhong bring a few boxes of things to Fucheng tomorrow." ”

Qingshu asked: "Grandma, the pawnshops in Fucheng that we are not familiar with will be more ruthless in terms of price." ”

Old Madam Gu smiled and said, "This won't." The pawnshop in Fucheng was opened by your aunt. The pawnshop knows Ah Zhong, and the price will not be too much. ”

Open the door to do business, and people will definitely make money when they take things. It's just that there is a difference between earning more and earning less.

Yuan Shi heard that in order to raise money, Mrs. Gu went to be a thing, but he didn't believe it at all: "It's just more than 4,000 taels of silver, it's just a matter of raising your hand, how can it be to the point of being a thing." ”

Gu Laosan said: "Over the years, I have watched coldly, and the big house has entered and exited much less, and I am afraid that there is really no money." ”

Yuan snorted coldly and said, "No money? I don't have the money, so I am willing to spend six hundred taels of silver to invite Mr. to that stinky girl. The old woman was used to pretending, and it was nothing more than her ploy. ”

Xuan sneered in his heart, even if it was a bitter plan, the eldest aunt took it out with real money. Unlike her mother-in-law, the little brother-in-law was forced to suffer a lawsuit and go to prison, and his grandson was so frightened that he had a high fever and did not see her take out the money to pay off the debt. is so selfish and cold-blooded and ruthless, it is really chilling.

Gu Laosan said with some irritation: "What's the use of talking about this now? Peace is no longer the heir of the big house. No matter how much money we have, it has nothing to do with us. ”

On the genealogy, Gu Heping has been crossed out from the names of Old Lady Gu and Old Lady Gu in the big house. On the household registration of the government, the names of Gu Heping's parents have also been changed.

Early in the morning, Ah Zhong brought someone to the main courtyard to move the boxes. Watching the camphor wood boxes move out one by one, Gu Xian felt very uncomfortable. These things were bought by parents at a great price, and now they are being given away in this situation.

Old Lady Gu looked at her uncomfortable appearance and said, "I want to ...... next year."

Qing Shu hurriedly pulled down the sleeve of Old Lady Gu and interrupted her words: "Grandma, this time we have done so many things to pay off our uncle's debts. Grandma, fortunately, it has nothing to do with him, otherwise the gold and silver mountains would have been defeated by him. By that time, my grandmother was so scared that she was living on the streets. ”

Gu Xian glared at Qingshu, and then said to Old Lady Gu: "Mother, don't listen to her nonsense. Mother, you still have me! I'm not going to let you go hungry and freeze. ”

Although she didn't expect Gu Xian to support her retirement, Mrs. Gu was still very happy when she heard this.

After the mother and daughter walked away, Mrs. Gu and Mother Hua said, "Xiaoxian has changed a lot. ”

In the past, how could she say such intimate words.

Mother Hua said: "My aunt and grandmother know that you are not easy, so she will naturally feel sorry for you." ”

She felt that the old lady was too strong before, and she always looked like she could withstand the sky falling. My aunt and grandmother naturally didn't worry about her when she saw it, but since the old lady began to show weakness, her aunt's attitude began to change.

In fact, Gu Xian's transformation is indispensable. These days, Gu Xian is often so scared that she can't speak. When she returns to the house, she will also reflect on herself.

Old Lady Gu nodded.

When Qingshu came back from school at noon, he heard that Mrs. Gu had sold the tea shop to Boss Yan.

Hearing that it was sold for 5,800 taels of silver, Qing Shu asked with some surprise: "Grandma, 5,000 taels of Boss Yan is too expensive, why does he have 800 taels of silver." ”

This is completely unreasonable!

Old Madam Gu said with a smile: "I was in a hurry to use money yesterday, so I lowered the price to five thousand taels." Now that I am not in a hurry to use the money and he wants to buy it, he will naturally raise the price. ”

Qing Shu was a little puzzled and asked, "Grandma, you said that the shop is worth up to three thousand taels, why would he pay double the money to buy the shop?" ”

Mrs. Gu said: "There are several kinds of high-quality tea in our shop, but other tea shops in Taifeng County do not have them. Without my matchmaking, he wouldn't have been able to buy these teas. ”

After speaking, Mrs. Gu and Qingshu explained: "Boss Yan is a teahouse and has its own channels for buying tea. But top-notch tea is not something that can be bought with money, it also requires connections. ”

Qingshu understood: "I see. ”

She said that this Boss Yan is also a businessman, how can he make a loss-making business! ”

Mrs. Gu said earnestly: "Qingshu, the most important thing in business is integrity. No matter how big or small the business is, we must be honest, and fraud will not last long. ”

Qingshu nodded and said, "I know grandma." ”
