Chapter 104 Backer
So Xiang Yeqi felt that someone must have done something in the middle, and as for whether she could point to these and make another pot of gold, it was up to her.
Xiang Yeqi first went to a bookstore that was far away from the Four Princes' Mansion, which not only sold some classics, but even sold some ink treasure paper, which should not be the one with the most losses......
However, as soon as Xiang Yeqi pushed the door open, he was choked with dust, and there seemed to be some old dust accumulated in the crack of the door of the bookstore, which was like catkins after floating in the wind.
"Ahem, ahem......"
Xiang Yeqi hid his face and coughed a few times, only to see that the house was also covered with a lot of dust, not to mention that it had not been cleaned for some time, it was like no one had lived for a long time!
But there was still a person lying on the wooden cabinet in front of him, and if he hadn't been making a sound of deep sleep, Xiang Yeqi would have almost thought that something had happened here.
"Boss?" He knocked at the door of the Night.
After knocking on the door twice in succession and there was no response, Xiang Yeqi had no choice but to pick up an old book and pat it on the cabinet, asking, "How much?" ”
The man didn't know how long he hadn't seen a "living person", and he was very stunned when he saw Xiang Yeqi, and only after a while did he casually say perfunctorily: "Five hundred taels." ”
Xiang Yeqi almost thought he had misheard - was this a robbery?
She almost thought that the old book in her hand was what the so-called famous masterpiece could be auctioned for a price of five hundred taels, and when she opened the page and looked at it twice, she was even more sure that it was a robbery!
How can this book be regarded as a famous masterpiece, but it is a strange novel written by ordinary people, and it has even been reprinted several times, and even the words are very blurred.
Sell for five hundred taels?
Is it a book whose pages are all paper made of gold, and a book printed of silver?
Could it be that there are four hundred and ninety-nine taels of silver tickets in this book?
"Boss, you're not kidding, are you? It's just a book, and it's going to sell for five hundred taels? I'm afraid that even today's saints can't afford to read such an expensive book, right? Or did you sleep in a daze and casually quoted a ridiculous price? ”
The owner of the bookstore sneered at the snort, and then fell back on the table: "Love to buy or not, the emperor is here, I may not sell her!" If you can't afford it, get out of here, I really don't know what to do here. ”
Xiang Yeqi almost thought that he was the one who stirred up the trouble, so he would be muttered a few words in a straight way.
But if she was a little more upright, she wouldn't be so miserable.
This time, Xiang Yeqi simply slapped the title deed of this bookstore on the cabinet, only waiting for his eyes to open his eyes to see it clearly, and said, "You take a closer look." ”
How do you think that this person really doesn't take Xiang Yeqi seriously, and after taking the title deed, he just smirked a few times, and mocked: "You yellow-haired little girl, where did you learn the method of imitating the title deed?" Go and go, this is Xiangjia's territory, if you mess around, I'll call someone to drive you away! ”
After that, the bookstore shopkeeper yawned and wanted to tear the forged "title deed" in his hand in half, but fortunately, Nan Chen made a timely move and handed the title deed back to Xiang Yeqi.
Back and forth, it's just the shopkeeper of this bookstore yawning.
The shopkeeper of the bookstore had never seen the posture of forming a team to deceive him, and he was even more surprised by Nan Chen's skills, and he was sleepy for a moment, so he only cared about accusing Xiang Yeqi: "Although I don't know what your girl is from, I forgive you for asking for some face from a girl's family, and I won't care about you about this forged title deed, so let's go quickly!" Otherwise, I'm going to have to call someone! ”
Xiang Yeqi also couldn't figure out what the psychology of this bookstore shopkeeper was, how did he become a villain who forged the title deed?
Of course, she couldn't back down at this time, so she chased after the bookstore and explained: "This title deed is not forged by me, you just look at the red letter on it, and you also know that this title deed has been stored for more than 20 years, how can I forge such a title deed before I was born?" ”
"Heh, the girl is not very old, but there are a lot of lies."
The shopkeeper of the bookstore walked out of the cabinet and stood in front of Xiang Yeqi, with a posture of wanting to do something with him, and said disdainfully: "Then you tell me that there are so many talents in the main branch of the Xiang family, why did it reach the hands of your little girl?" Old Madam Xiang is not a fool, how can she give the title deed to outsiders! ”
Just because he couldn't force Xiang Yeqi to retreat with these three words, the bookstore shopkeeper was quite unreasonable and wanted to raise his hand to push Xiang Yeqi out, but before he could touch Xiang Yeqi, he was severely restrained by Nan Chen's wrist.
"Hugh is weak."
The saber on Nan Chen's waist flashed with a hint of coldness, which made the domineering bookstore owner feel miserable, so he pulled his hand out of Nan Chen's hand and endured a lot of pain.
"You guys really met a scoundrel today, bad luck! Bad luck! ”
The bookstore owner shook his head resentfully, and kicked out a thin little scholar from behind the door curtain, the little scholar seemed to be sorting out a handful of old bamboo slips, and before he could react to what was happening, he was pulled out by the ear and walked out several steps away, and the bamboo slips fell to the ground, which made Xiang Yeqi feel distressed.
I only heard the bookstore boss pull the little scholar's ear and say, "Go back to your home and invite Manager Wei!" ”
The little scholar didn't dare to slack off, so he pulled his legs and ran out of the door.
Before this person was invited, the bookstore owner swaggered on the rocking chair in the center of the bookstore as if he had found a backer, closed his eyes and nourished himself, and did not forget to mock Xiang Yeqi three or two sentences: "If you are thin-skinned and know that you are ashamed, leave at this time, and I will act as if nothing has happened!" If someone is invited after a while, pull you to report to the official, don't blame me for not saving face for this girl's family. ”
It's almost like stepping on the head of the night to show off his might.
Nan Chen was responsible for guarding Xiang Yeqi, so it was naturally impossible to sit idly by, and seeing that he wanted to bring the guards behind him to teach him a lesson, he was stopped by Xiang Yeqi.
The bookstore owner was so anxious that he almost jumped off the rocking chair, pointed at Xiang Yeqi and scolded: "Shameless! This truth can't be explained by people, so I think about doing it, right? I'm ashamed of you. ”
Xiang Yeqi is much more stable than the owner of this bookstore, and only shook his head to signal Nan Chen to calm down: "Don't worry, since he believes in the people of Xiangfu, he will let the people of Xiangfu recognize who I am." ”
The owner of the bookstore inadvertently flashed his waist, and he always felt that he was very flustered after hearing Xiang Yeqi's words......
The bookstore owner comforted himself in his heart that he couldn't be deceived by such a little girl as Xiang Yeqi, but the calmer Xiang Yeqi was, the more bottomless he became.
It wasn't until the familiar sound of beating beads came into the bookstore that the bookstore owner jumped down from the rocking chair like a flashback, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet the distinguished guests: "Manager Wei, you are finally here!" There is a girl, who is the new owner of our bookstore, and she is ridiculous! ”
"I said Wu Gui, when you were asked to take charge of this bookstore, I didn't point to you to do any big business...... But you don't even clean, what are you like? I know that you are a layman, but you also have to make a show and show it to outsiders! ”
Manager Wei first roughly scanned the environment in the bookstore, he knew that the owner of the bookstore was a slow person, and he didn't expect him to do anything serious.
Glancing at Xiang Ye's back, he didn't think about it, but chatted with the bookstore owner in a leisurely manner: "Come to me in a hurry, what's the matter?" ”
The owner of the bookstore was most dissatisfied with the arrogant appearance of Mr. Wei, and even took everything he said as a deaf ear, but at this time, relying on others, he had to repeat it in a low voice: "Mr. Wei, a girl just came, not the new owner of the bookstore, but I think it's clearly a person who is looking for trouble!" No, I'm going to invite you. ”
Manager Wei swaggered up his sliding trouser waistband, just about to see what this girl looked like, daring to be so arrogant, but when he turned around to Yeqi, he was directly stunned in place.
This Wu Gui really doesn't have long eyes!
Seeing that the two of them didn't say a word, the bookstore boss thought it was Manager Wei who shook Xiang Yeqi, and hurriedly relied on Manager Wei's momentum: "See? This is the manager of Wei who says everything to the government! ”
Manager Wei paced forward and respectfully gave a big salute to Xiang Yeqi: "Slave Wei Quan, I have seen the eldest lady." ”
His behavior was undoubtedly a resounding slap in the face to the bookstore owner.
"Don't be so polite, listen to what Boss Wu said - are you saying anything to the mansion? That's supposed to be my respect for you, it's rude. ”
Xiang Yeqi likes to repeat this kind of words that make people's faces hurt.
"How dare you ......" Manager Wei is still humble when he meets his master, "You are a young lady, and you are a good match for the Fourth Highness, come to respect the slave, wouldn't it be the life of the slave!" In the final analysis, it's this Wu Gui who has no vision, and you can't even recognize the eldest lady, it's really confused! ”
As he spoke, Manager Wei "rewarded" the bookstore shopkeeper with a slap, and asked sharply, "Why did you talk to the eldest lady just now?" I'm not afraid that His Royal Highness will kill you, and after a few years of being a shopkeeper, you will really be your boss! Don't forget, you're a bookkeeper! ”
The shopkeeper of this bookstore was also dumbfounded, and his ears and eyes buzzed in place for a long time, before he realized that he had offended someone who should not be offended!
As soon as he learned that Xiang Yeqi's identity was not ordinary, the bookstore shopkeeper seemed to have changed people: "It's the eldest lady, it's all because the slave is clumsy, and that's why I collided with you!" ”
"What do you talk about, I'm not such a grudge person, how can I bother with you about this little thing, don't you say?"
As soon as the corners of the bookstore owner's mouth showed a little joy, he heard words like a bolt from the blue: "But you don't have to continue to do this errand, why don't you go home and farm and exercise?" ”
"Miss, you, don't!" He snorted and cried, "If you leave Xiangfu, the slave will really have no way to live!" ”
