Chapter 56: Making Money
There are a lot of vendors selling things in the bazaar, and there are more people buying things.
Gu Jiayao was lucky, it happened to be the day to catch the big set.
Villagers in the villages and towns under the jurisdiction of Guangzhou will bring their own agricultural and sideline products to sell.
It's close to Qixi Festival again, and there are a lot of people, and there are a lot of young girls.
Gu Jiayao is beautiful and has a sweet mouth, which can always attract customers, especially young men and women, who will be stopped by Gu Jiayao.
And let her say that she would always buy a jade plaque when she left.
Shi Ze handed the beautifully packaged jade plaque to the paying guest with one hand, and collected the money into his pocket with the other. Gu Jiayao sold it at a low price, five taels of silver a piece, and many people in the relatively wealthy city of Guangzhou could grit their teeth and buy a jade plate. The young man thought that if he bought a jade brand, he would be able to marry a beautiful daughter-in-law like Gu Jiayao.
And when the girls bought the jade plate, they were more or less shy.
Gu Jiayao curled the corners of her mouth, Shi Ze was still very popular. The daughter of the noble minister's family doesn't look down on Shi Ze, but most of the girls in the bazaar are well-off.
A handsome and honest boy like Ishizawa is very sought-after.
He has a bee waist and long legs, and the muscles of his arms are not prominent, but he seems to be very powerful.
He's a capable worker.
Some bold aunts asked where Shi Ze's family lived, and some people even asked Shi Ze to make up for it.
Shi Ze dodged frequently, his face flushed.
Gu Jiayao looked at it with a smile on the side, and Shi Ze's head was sweating!
Innocent brother.
She admired Shi Ze's shyness and shyness, but she didn't know that she herself was also a bright color.
Men who come and go will show obsession after living more and less.
Shi Ze's brows furrowed more and more, and the blue tendons on his forehead were tensed, and he seemed to be patient to the limit.
"Senior brother." Gu Jiayao said softly: "There are still thirty jade plates left, let's go back after selling them." ”
No matter how good-tempered a man is, he can't help but rub a woman against him.
Although none of these women touched Ishizawa.
Gu Jiayao didn't even notice how Shi Ze dodged.
Ishizawa wanted to squeeze out a smile, but the muscles on his face seemed to be hardened, and his breathing was a little heavy.
"I've got all these jade plates."
A fat man dressed as a wealthy businessman squeezed through the people who came to Shi Ze, and slapped a silver ticket with the big palm of his fan.
He faced Gu Jiayao: "This is five hundred taels of silver, which is enough to buy all your jade plates." ”
After Gu Jiayao saw the amount and authenticity of the silver ticket clearly, she smiled and said, "Cheng, it's all for you." ”
"Senior brother, wrap the jade plaque for this guest."?" Well. ”
Shi Ze breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Gu Jiayao would say that he would not sell it.
The rich businessman was slightly stunned.
Gu Jiayao put away the silver ticket, "Now you regret it, but it's too late." ”
She patted the purse in which she kept the silver ticket, and pointed to the plaid cotton cloth that had been thrown on the ground as a counter, "Wrap this cloth for him together." ”
"If I don't regret it, how can I regret it?"
A flash of remorse flashed in the rich merchant's eyes, and he lowered his eyelids to take the burden handed over by Shi Ze.
Gu Jiayao dragged Shi Ze's arm and quickly moved through the crowd towards a relatively cold place.
The rich merchant tightened his funny baggage, took away his smile and left quickly.
"Senior brother, I'm in for a treat, you can order whatever you want!"
Gu Jiayao arrogantly pushed the menu to Shi Ze, "I have money this time, and I won't send you away with two bowls of wonton stew." ”
Shi Ze's forehead was dry, as if he was not the one who was sweating.
He looked down at the menu and ordered a few of his favorite dishes.
Gu Jiayao added another bottle of wine and asked Xiao'er to go down and prepare.
In an uproar, Gu Jiayao poured the silver that Shi Ze had accepted on the table and counted them one by one.
There were plates of brass, and there were broken silver.
"Trading without capital is refreshing, and how much money you make is mine."
Gu Jiayao's eyes lit up, "I'm really lucky today, I met the fifth son who paid the bill, and finally met a fat man...... The God of Wealth cares, and we should get rich. ”
"The person who bought all the jade plates in the end, isn't my sister curious?"
"I've been with him for money, and I've never lived a lifetime, so why should I be curious?"
Gu Jiayao asked rhetorically.
Shi Ze lowered his eyelids and said, "I'm worried that he will regret his impulsiveness and lead someone to return it." ”
"Do you regret it and want to get your silver ticket back? There are no doors! ”
Gu Jiayao covered her purse domineeringly, and put a few good pieces of silver into it by the way, "Actually, he is not too much of a loss, the jade plate is sold in the store, and ten taels of silver can always be sold, if it is publicized, it is said that it is stained with the fairy spirit of Sansheng Stone Silly, and it can be sold for twenty or thirty taels." ”
"I just don't want to make trouble for the shopkeeper, otherwise I will directly sell the jade plate back to Fang Cai's shop, and the silver I will get will be more than eight hundred taels."
Shi Ze nodded, "It's really not good to let the original person buy it back, and I played that son as a monkey." ”
"I think he is well-dressed, extravagant, and has an excellent background."
Shi Ze's hand on his knee was slowly clenched, and his face was still honest, "But the young master of the rich and noble family is always frivolous and domineering, liking the new and hating the old." ”
Gu Jiayao's eyes sank slightly, stroking the lines of the teacup.
"Senior sister."
"Oh."
Gu Jiayao responded casually, Shi Ze's heart was raised, and the junior sister took a fancy to him?!
He quickly closed his eyes.
"That fifth prince is not a simple person, we can't afford to provoke him."
Gu Jiayao solemnly said, "The fifth son's background should be extremely expensive, otherwise Miss Sun ......"
Speaking of this, Gu Jiayao moved her small nose, as if she smelled the smell of conspiracy.
"What did she do with all the effort to get close to the fifth son? Didn't you want to marry your cousin sooner?! ”
Gu Jiayao seemed to smile, "What she asks for is not small." ”
The shopkeeper served the meal, Gu Jiayao immediately restrained her smile, and Mu Ne sat upright.
After waiting for the shopkeeper to retreat again, Gu Jiayao once again showed her true feelings and took a sip with a wine glass.
Shi Ze looked at it worriedly, "Senior sister, drink it slowly, this wine ......"
"Not really."
Gu Jiayao tasted the taste in her mouth, and shook her head again and again in disappointment.
After drinking foreign wine, red wine, cocktails, etc., it was difficult for Gu Jiayao to be impressed by the pure brew in front of her for five taels of silver and a pot.
At this time, the brewing technology was not yet complete.
The liquor is also not transparent and a bit cloudy.
Gu Jiayao didn't have the heart to drink anymore, so she even stuffed the bottle directly to Shi Ze.
"I love watching you drink!"
“……”
Nonsense!
Shi Zeming knew that this was her dislike of drinking a lot, but he obediently took the wine bottle and picked up the wine glass that Gu Jiayao had drunk half.
He slowly brought it to his lips, his eyelashes jumping as if frightened, for fear of hearing her stop him!
No!
When Shi Ze drank a glass of wine, he didn't hear any movement.
Ishizawa closed his eyes and savored it.
Gu Jiayao patted Shi Ze on the shoulder, "Wait for me to free my hands and make colorless and transparent wine for my senior brother." ”
Society owes her an older brother!
Gu Jiayao looked at Shi Ze with a smile, if her parents forced her to marry again in the future, she finally had another object to shirk.
An only child wants to have a reliable older brother the most.
