Chapter 248: Turtle
"Give me a string, and you don't have to look for the rest."
"Well, you girl, it's still refreshing."
The old man smiled, took a string of sugar gourds and handed it to Qingwan.
Qingwan gave it to Wu Wen easily, and then asked the man about the most lively place in the county.
The man who sold sugar gourds was happy to see Qingwan giving money, so he told her.
It turns out that in this county, the most lively is Shunping Street in the west of the city. There were all kinds of shops on that street. The whole county, a little bigger, some famous shops are all located there. Among them, the most eye-catching is the gathering inn. Although the name of this inn is ordinary, the business is one of the best. The merchants who sell in these four directions must be this gathering inn when they settle in this county. And this inn is not only a hostel for you to settle down, but also a restaurant, where there is a head and face in this county, the first choice for inviting people to feast is naturally this gathering inn.
When the news got there, Qingwan quickly picked up Wu Wen and walked towards the Yunji Inn.
Turning left and right, passing through several alleys, and asking people on the way, the two of them finally arrived at this Shunping Street.
The man who sold the sugar gourd was right. This street is much more lively than the streets just now, just look at the decoration of these shops, you can see that the houses are beautifully decorated, and the storefronts are bright. Silk, jewelry, pastries, restaurants, ...... It's really everything.
That's it, that's it! Pulling Wu Wen, Qingwan stopped.
Qingwan stood on the opposite side of the Yunji Inn, feeling a little puzzled. This county number one looks like this? No matter how you look at it, there is no such thing as the old man and the blessing of the jade and the hall. After watching for a while, Qingwan found the answer, no wonder it is the first in the county. Although he doesn't look magnificent, there has always been an endless stream of people coming and going. The flow of people is definitely the criterion for testing whether a shop is booming.
"Knock, knock, knock...."Qingwan knocked a few times on the basin with a rolling pin, and his mouth was not idle: "Come and see, come and see, the world's biggest turtle." Come and see, knock ......" and knocked on the basin again.
Qingwan's drumming drew the eyes of the people who came and went on the street.
Seeing that someone was already looking this way, Qingwan shouted even harder, "Don't miss it when you pass by, come and see, come and see, the biggest turtle in the world." Come and see Boom, Knock, Knock, Knock......"
With Qingwan's loud shouting, a crowd of threes and twos came over. This person who loves to watch the excitement is really everywhere.
Qingwan was proud for a while, and the knock on her hand became heavier and heavier.
"This girl is talking so mysteriously, she shouldn't be here to deceive people."
"Girl, it's so lively, take out your world's largest turtle and measure it, don't just say it and don't do it, it's a fake trick."
Someone made a strange noise in the crowd, causing a burst of laughter.
Qingwan didn't care, her hand was knocking, and her mouth was still shouting to herself.
Seeing that Qingwan had been busy shouting, some people in the crowd began to want to flash away. "Gone, gone, this girl is a liar. This year, who has ever seen a girl shouting like this. ”
"Come on, come on, let's see my number one turtle in the world."
Qingwan jumped off the table, put the rolling pin and basin on the ground, took out the turtle from the back basket and put it on the table, and put the words written by Mr. Word Measurement on the turtle.
As soon as the turtle was taken out, there was a loud exclamation from the crowd.
"Who said I lied, who just said I lied? Tell me, my turtle is the biggest turtle in the world! ”
Qingwan walked around in front of the crowd with the turtle in his hand, and the onlookers all opened their mouths when they saw the turtle, where was there time to answer Qingwan's question.
Although they don't know if this turtle is the best in the world, they know from their expressions that this is the first time they have seen such a big turtle. Qingwan's heart is more confident.
"Girl, what are you thinking about this turtle, can't it be for sale?" A young student standing in front asked.
Qingwan's mouth pursed, and her eyes swept slanted. "This big brother, of course my turtle is here to sell, I carried the turtle all the way here, is it possible to let you see it, let you rate him the first in the world, right?"
"Hee-hee-....." Qingwan's words caused a burst of laughter from the crowd.
Then the latter scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
Qingwan saw that the people at the scene were already interested in her turtle, so she jumped on the table again and said loudly, "Everyone, everyone, you have also seen the turtle." Yes, I'm here to sell turtles today, and I was asked how much I want to sell. I don't know about this either. I'm a turtle, I don't ...... price."
Before Qingwan finished speaking, there was a burst of discussion in the crowd. From ancient times to the present, this is the first time that people who have done business have heard of this.
"Knock ....." Qingwan got off the table, picked up the basin and rolling pin on the ground, and slammed it again.
"Everyone. Be quiet, I'm not done yet. My turtle is not priced, but it does not mean that my turtle has no price. Today, here, the price of the turtle is higher. ”
Seeing that all the people were stretching their necks and listening carefully to her words, Qingwan picked up the rolling pin, knocked it on the basin again, swallowed her saliva, and then said, "Someone asked again, what does this mean." Then I'll tell you all. I don't have a price for my turtle now, if you pay a penny......"
Speaking of this, Qingwan pointed at the young junior who had just been teased by himself with a rolling pin, and then faced the crowd again, "If no one here pays any more money, then you can buy this turtle for a penny." ”
"Ahh
If such a big turtle can be bought for a penny, it is a huge bargain.
"Boom, don't panic. If there are people in this scene who pay two cents and some who pay three cents, you can talk about it, then who should I sell my turtle to today" Qingwan raised his hand again, and sold it on the spot.
"Three-penny"
The onlookers shouted these three words in unison.
"Haha, it seems that everyone is quite smart." Qingwan laughed, and then said, "Then since the big guys have figured out what I mean, then I'll start." Whoever of you wants this turtle will make an offer. I forgot to say it just now, you take a good look, this turtle is thousands of years old, this is going to be bought home and offered, it is going to prolong life. Originally, I didn't want to sell it, but my father was sick and needed money to find Langzhong, alas......"
If you want to do this play, you can do a full set, let's just say that it shouldn't be anything if the third child is sick. Qingwan was laughing in her heart, wiped her hand on her eyes, and forced out a tear to hang on her face.
"Girl, I'll pay two cents."
The young descendant, seeing Qingwan crying pitifully, made a move and added a text. I was still very proud, and I felt that I had done a good deed.
"I'll write five articles."
A middle-aged woman in a plain skirt in the back opened her mouth and added five cents.
"A tael of silver." A faint voice rang out from the crowd.
Suddenly a tael of silver was added, which made the onlookers a little surprised, and the field fell silent.
Qing Wan looked at the person who spoke, it was a man, some of whom were older, and the satin gown on his body showed that this person's identity must be extraordinary.
Seeing that no one spoke, Qingwan knocked on the basin, "Everyone, this master has already paid a tael of silver, does anyone else add it?" If no one adds it, then this turtle is this master's. ”
"One-two-one"
As soon as Qingwan's voice fell, someone spoke again.
"One-two-two"
"One, two, five"
"Two Two"
.......
Now on Shunping Street, it is very lively, and the shouting of prices one after another sounded on the opposite side of the Yunji Inn.
On the second floor of the inn, there is a tea house, and a middle-aged man sits on a window seat, drinking tea leisurely. The bustle provoked by Qingwan on the opposite side of the downstairs was full of people, and the noise made him frown.
The middle-aged man stood up and walked to the window, far away, he could only see a girl standing on a table, holding a basin in her hand, and she couldn't hear what was being said. Seeing that more and more people were gathering there, the man became interested.
Anyway, it's okay to be idle, the middle-aged man walked slowly down the teahouse and walked out of the inn.
At this time, the value of the turtle has increased from two pennies to I don't know how many times.
"Ten taels"
It's still the same guy who was wearing a satin robe just now.
This price is no longer something that ordinary people can give. Once again, there was a temporary silence on the field.
Qingwan was a little anxious, this price was not what she wanted. I have no choice but to say what I said in front, and that's all I have to say.
"Ten taels of silver from this gentleman. There are also people who give a higher price and don't. In this way, I count 123, and if no one raises the price after counting", the turtle is really this one today. Qingwan said slowly, trying to delay a little time, someone will add up.
No one spoke for a long time, so Qingwan had no choice but to pick up the basin and knock on it with a rolling pin. "Knock...... 1. Knock ......"
"Fifteen taels"
Hearing the shout, Qingwan quickly stopped and looked in the direction where the voice came from. Whoever is so bold, OnePlus is five taels of silver.
"It's Zhang Yuanwai"
"Who would dare to pay like this except him. What's more, there is still a grudge against Li Yuanwai, the two of them have always been fighting openly and secretly, so naturally they will not give up. ”
With the shouting, the crowd began to talk.
These words, Qingwan, naturally listened to the ears. It seems that today's trip will not be in vain, and this kind of good thing has happened. Qingwan secretly applauded in her heart.
No, I have to help them with my mother.
"It seems that this master has very good eyesight, knowing that this is a thousand-year-old turtle, this is going to win home, it is needless to say that there is such a baby at home, it will be smooth sailing and wealth."
