Chapter 818: Rules
After Wen Tianfu finished speaking, he didn't stay long, said hello to Gongzi Xie, and left soon.
It's not interesting to stay here. Although the relationship between him and Gongzi Xie seemed to have eased a lot, and it was not as tense as it was at the beginning, he always reminded himself of the embarrassing things here, and there were so many pairs of eyes around him, Wen Tianfu didn't want to stay for a moment.
After Wen Tianfu left, the atmosphere at the scene became lively again.
Those boys who were still waiting and watching couldn't hold back, and they shouted that they wanted to buy stones and gamble stones.
Yi Zhao looked at the pile of black heads in front of him, and couldn't help but have an extra black line on his forehead. If he continues like this, cutting stones for such a group of people, even if he is good at martial arts, this body will not be able to bear it.
However, Su Wanqing was still smiling in the face of so many people, and her clear voice spread far away.
"Please be calm and don't be impatient, today is the first day of the new opening of our shop, so all the stones today will give you a preferential price, but our shop has a rule, a day gambling stone reception of no more than twenty guests, first come, first served, no turn of the guests can only wait until the next time, at present the shop only has a little brother who is proficient in stone cutting, so I hope you understand."
Although Su Wanqing is a woman, her words are polite and reasonable, and the people around her listened to it, although they were a little unhappy in their hearts, but since this is the rule of the store, not to mention that this stone cutting does take a lot of time and energy, it is understandable.
It's just that only twenty guests were received on this day, and this has to be the year of the monkey, so what is their turn?
This is the first time they have seen such strange rules when they open their doors to do business, although they abide by the rules. Ordinary businessmen are eager for business to come to the door, but this gambling stone shop is good, and there is a reason to push customers out, which is very fresh.
Xie Gongzi listened, and a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes.
He could see the disappointment, surprise and suspicion in the eyes of some of the people around him.
This Mrs. Pei seems to be even more interesting than he imagined.
When the prefect on the side heard this, he suddenly became a little anxious.
What does this Mrs. Pei think, she only receives twenty guests a day, so how much silver can she earn? Isn't this a blatant attempt to drive guests out? What good can this do for her? Isn't it still her who will lose money at that time?
Of course, the most fundamental reason why the prefect is like this is that in his eyes, he also has his share of these silvers, Su Wanqing's posture, when the time comes, won't all his silver taels be gone?
Liu Ting, who was standing beside the prefect, had already taken her eyes away from Gongzi Xie at this time, came back to her senses, and when she heard Su Wanqing's words, her eyes narrowed, and she immediately understood Su Wanqing's intentions.
She said, where would this woman have so many stones to gamble on others? The stones she brought had clearly been snatched away by Ah Yong's people.
All these stones here today are fake! This can produce jade, but it is just an accident, in the final analysis, it is still Xie Gongzi's own luck that will be like this.
If this woman had limited the number of guests she could receive, even if the stones were fake, she would not have been exposed for a short time. Hmph, this woman is really shrewd, but how could she let go of this opportunity in vain?
Liu Ting glanced at the prefect beside her, she had been by the prefect's side for many years, and she had long mastered his emotions, but now when she heard Su Wanqing say this, the prefect suddenly became anxious, and there was more or less emotion in her eyes.
For the prefect, this woman's operation must be very dissatisfied in his heart. As long as the prefect's emotions are stirred, is she afraid that she will not find a chance to expose Su Wanqing's true face?
Liu Ting thought that she had guessed Su Wanqing's intentions, her eyes suddenly lit up, she coughed lightly, and in front of everyone, she suddenly took a step forward and said softly: "Mrs. Pei, although it is inappropriate to say these things at this time, it is ...... With so many guests wanting to gamble on stones, Mrs. Pei only receives twenty guests a day, is it too little? I believe that the guests are eager to participate. ”
The people around listened to Liu Ting's words, hey, where is this woman on their side, is it the prefect's concubine, right? I didn't expect to speak for them.
If you are not satisfied, you should speak out directly.
"Isn't it, it's only twenty, and it's the year of the monkey before it's Uncle Ben's turn?"
"I also think it's too little, can you add a little more? With such a large store and 20 customers a day, can you consider the feelings of the guests? ”
"Yes, I'm also interested in this gambling stone. Boss, it's not kind to you like this, how can you block the way of wealth at the door? ”
was a little smarter, and made a harmless joke at Su Wanqing, so that the situation would not be so embarrassing.
Su Wanqing smiled at the person who spoke, and then glanced at Liu Ting, who had an innocent face, and knew in her heart that this woman wanted to find trouble for herself again. However, her Su Wanqing's matter is not so easy to find.
Before Su Wanqing could speak, Gongzi Xie on the side spoke softly first.
"You want to gamble on the stone, Xie also understands, but you might as well listen to what this Mrs. Pei has to say first? Xie believes that Mrs. Pei is a businessman, so she naturally has her own ideas, and she will never deliberately turn you away, which is not good for her, right? ”
Originally, there were already many people around to Ying and Liu Ting, and Liu Ting couldn't help but feel a trace of pride in her heart. But she didn't expect that she didn't wait for Su Wanqing's defense, and this Gongzi Xie actually helped her speak first.
And on the contrary, it is Gongzi Xie. It's none other than this Gongzi Xie!
Liu Ting's reddened nails, under the cover of her sleeves, slowly clenched, and clenched again until they fell deep into the palm of her hand.
But Liu Ting couldn't feel the slightest pain, because the sudden monstrous jealousy had overwhelmed her.
Su Wanqing accidentally caught a glimpse of Liu Ting's expression, and her brows jumped slightly. This woman's eyes are really fierce enough, don't you even plan to hide it at this time?
It's strange, I've provoked her so many times before, and I've never seen her show such an exaggerated expression. Now that she's here, she's different.
Su Wanqing glanced at Gongzi Xie, who had been polite from beginning to end, and her heart was clear. It seems that Liu Ting's story is more complicated than she imagined.
Ouch, the grassland above the prefect's head is also wider than she imagined.
The people around him, no matter what, will still sell him some face, after all, Gongzi Xie's identity is there, he has always been a gentle and polite person, as the so-called reaching out and not hitting a smiling person, not to mention that this is still Xie Gongzi.
Therefore, after Gongzi Xie came out to help Su Wanqing break the siege, those voices were much weaker.
It was Liu Ting, who couldn't help but speak again.
"I didn't expect Gongzi Xie to be so kind-hearted, I really don't know what kind of magic this Mrs. Pei has, which can make Gongzi Xie willing to speak for her, and make the little woman wonder. The little woman brought up this matter, and she didn't mean anything else, but she felt that everyone was running for the gambling stone, and she must have wanted to get involved, so she asked Mrs. Pei, the little woman had no malicious intentions, and her expression was not clear, and she hoped that Mrs. Pei and Mr. Xie would bear with her. ”
Liu Ting put away Fang Cai's expression, and said to Su Wanqing with sincerity in her eyes.
But Su Wanqing could see it at a glance, this Liu Ting was clearly acting for Gongzi Xie. It's a pity that Gongzi Xie didn't take Liu Ting to heart at all.
Because, he didn't give Liu Ting a look.
Su Wanqing glanced at the silent Gongzi Xie, and felt that the smile on Liu Ting's face was about to be unbearable, and she couldn't help but feel a little more sympathy for her in her heart.
It's not good to provoke anyone, but I want to provoke Gongzi Xie, although this provocation is not to provoke him, but this Gongzi Xie does seem to be gentle and polite, but Su Wanqing knows that in fact, he has always kept a distance from others, polite but estranged.
This distance is not visible to ordinary people, but Xie Gongzi has been silently maintaining. Anyone who crosses this line, presumably Gongzi Xie will not agree.
As for why he was full of kindness to her, Su Wanqing felt that it was probably just a few of them who happened to fit Gongzi Xie's eyes.
Only those who can get into the eyes of Gongzi Xie will be treated sincerely, this is the thought in Su Wanqing's heart. Intuition told her that Gongzi Xie was such a person.
Because she and Yi Zhao are also such people.
Like-minded, I guess, this means that like attracts like.
Liu Ting said this, and Yu Guang glanced at Gongzi Xie from time to time, hoping to get his response. After all, a gentle person like Gongzi Xie will definitely not embarrass others, especially when others don't get a response.
Why did Liu Ting think so, in fact, she is not to blame, on the one hand, it is related to her own situation, on the other hand, he just treated Wen Tianfu, isn't it the same?
Therefore, Liu Ting was very relieved of Gongzi Xie.
But she waited and waited, and before Xie Gongzi could say a word, her face was a little unbearable. She clearly named him, why didn't he say anything?
Su Wanqing, who was on the side, spoke at this time.
"Aunt Liu's words are serious, the little woman didn't take it to heart, Aunt Liu doesn't have to be like this, you are just thinking about these guests, but the prefect is still watching from the side, isn't Aunt Liu afraid that the prefect will be jealous?" Su Wanqing said, with a hint of ridicule in her tone.
Seeing this, the people around let out a good-natured laugh.
Liu Ting glanced at the prefect next to him, and it happened that his gaze fell on him.
Fang just looked at Gongzi Xie's gaze, he wouldn't be seen by the prefect, right?
Thinking of this, Liu Ting's face suddenly turned slightly pale.
