Chapter 155: Pawn Sale
Since beating Mu Tianyue and saying goodbye, Qian's mother has been thinking about it day and night, tossing and turning and unable to sleep, and there is only one thing on her mind - her purse.
A purse of one or two silver, so if she wants to do it herself, will she be able to make a lot of money one day and leave some industry for the two boys Qian Hui and Qian Yao?
But she didn't do it...... What if I lose money?
Qian's mother was worried, but she couldn't suppress the idea of moving, and after Qian Qianqian left, she still decided to give it a go.
She didn't have much silver on her, so she went to the pickle shop to get it, and went to the hot pot restaurant to ask for it, but it was not enough and she resold some things, and she made up a thousand taels of silver.
Mother Qian was holding a thousand taels of silver tickets, her forehead was sweating, and her legs were almost weak.
A thousand taels of silver, she couldn't have thought of it before.
The first thing she has to do is buy fabrics, yes, buy good fabrics and silk threads.
She hadn't been to Lianzhou City, and she couldn't find Mu Tianyue, so she found a familiar shop.
The fabric in the shop was not the best, it was not what she wanted.
"Sister, you see that my sister often buys things from you, how about you do a favor to your sister?"
"The fabric I want must be of the best quality, fifty eyes of different colors."
The proprietress of the shop was so frightened that her hands trembled: "The best fabrics include ice jade satin, Huayun red brocade, and silver silk...... The price is frighteningly expensive, and even if I only need you to pay for the carriage and horses, it will cost hundreds of taels of silver. ”
"Such an expensive ......" Mother Qian hesitated on her face, the proprietress of the shop breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't dare to do such a big business, who expected that Mother Qian was ruthless and wanted to become a big thing, and gritted her teeth and said: "Sister, then give me fifty horses too!" To be the best! ”
The proprietress of the shop knew that the person in front of her was the wife of the boss of the hot pot restaurant, and she thought that the boss of the hot pot restaurant must also know about such a big thing, so she hesitated for a while and said, "Okay, but you have to pay me a deposit of one hundred taels first, I don't have these goods in the store, and I have to go to Lianzhou City to order." ”
Qian Mu's hands trembled when she took the one hundred taels of silver tickets, and a strange pleasure rose in her heart, look, isn't she also doing business?
Later, I rented a remote place to embroider purses, bought five sewing machines from a tailor shop, and went door to door to search for good embroiderers.
But there is not much money left.
The last few embroiderers were sewing purses day and night, and in January, they even made 3,000 of them.
After embroidering three thousand, Qian Fen and Qian Xuan cried and knelt at the door of the embroidery, saying that they would not let Qian's mother continue.
But Qian's mother has fallen into the devil, and her eyes are red, as if she can make money as long as she has enough purse.
In the end, it was an embroidery lady whose words broke the illusion of Qian's mother: "These purses ...... What if I can't sell it? ”
Mother Qian suddenly sobered up, she was no longer obsessed with sewing purses, but began to sell her purse.
But after running all over the town, for a whole month, not a single purse was sold, and when everyone heard the price of a tael of silver, they looked at her with the eyes of a madman.
Mother Qian was not convinced, the people in the town were poor, so naturally they couldn't afford her expensive purse, so she took it to Lianzhou City to sell.
There are many people in Lianzhou City, rich and rich, and there is a lot of spare money in their hands.
But who would have expected that in Lianzhou City, the situation was worse than in the town, and the people in the town could finally listen to her and look at the purse in her hand. And the people of Lianzhou City didn't even give her a look, and saw that she was carrying a basket and selling around, hiding far away like a snake and scorpion.
The purse can't be sold, a thousand taels were spent, and Qian's mother lost half her life all of a sudden, she hid in the room all day long, refusing to go out, and she didn't have the face to go out.
When Qian Qianqian came back today, she knew that she was going to be finished.
This girl has a fiery temper, don't you scold her for being bloody?
Instead of being scolded, it is better for her to reprimand first and spread out all the words and say them.
Mother Qian pointed at Qian Qianqian and cried: "If you didn't bring Boss Mu back, and he said something about purses, could I do those things?" ”
"Now that the silver is gone, you blame me, then why don't you blame yourself! Qian Qianqian, I'll tell you! You are the one who caused all these troubles! ”
"If you dislike it now, pack up your things and get out! I don't think I have a daughter like you! ”
……
The small courtyard was noisy for an afternoon, but Qian Qianqian felt that it was suddenly quiet at this time.
Okay, Mother Qian's scolding finally woke her up.
She can change the environment, but she can't change people.
When she first came, Qian's mother could watch the people of the Qian family want to sell Qian Fen and Qian Xuan, and she had thousands of reasons, and it was a big mistake not to protect her children.
She is patriarchal, and no matter how much the three sisters do, it is not as good as Qian Hui and Qian Yao to say a word.
She loves them, but this kind of love requires too much, and she has to take out her meager love and share it with their three sisters after she cares about Qian Hui's schoolwork, food, and body, whether Qian Yao has peed his pants, how much he has grown up today, and his health is okay.
Thinking about everything, the anger in Qian Qianqian's eyes dissipated.
The person in front of her is just the person who gave birth to Qian Qianqian, she has become the Qian Qianqian of this era, why do you have to work hard to invest?
Qian Qianqian smiled suddenly, the laughter was particularly harsh in the scolding, Qian Mu was stunned, her face crossed with shame, and the random thing in her hand smashed into Qian Qianqian's face.
Qian Qianqian didn't dodge or dodge, she suffered this blow, and the cotton stick that smashed over made a red mark on her face.
"I don't blame you." Qian Qianqian said.
She paused and said: "If the silver is gone, it will be gone, it will be regarded as a long lesson, mother, don't think about it, rest well and take care of your body, Brother Yao can't do without you." ”
After speaking, he got up and pushed the door open, Qian Fen, Qian Xuan, and Qian Hui were all guarding outside with red eyes outside the door, and when they saw her come out, her face was injured, and tears were falling down, especially Qian Hui was crying breathlessly.
Qian Qianqian still loves her younger siblings, and pulled them into the hall with a smile: "Alas, how big is it, is it worth your crying like this?" ”
She didn't cry, they wept like tearful people.
Qian Xuan wiped away his tears: "Eldest sister, we will follow you wherever you go......"
"The eldest sister is not going anywhere, this is my home."
"Big sister......" Qian Hui pulled Qian Qianqian's sleeve, he was the one who cried the most, tears and snot flowed together.
Qian Hui pulled Qian Qianqian into his room, pulled out the two big boxes, and opened: "Eldest sister, I'm sorry, I didn't stop my mother's ......"
In the two large boxes, more than half of the original full of delicate things were missing.
Qian Qianqian felt that the blood in her body was solidified, her brain was smashed with a hammer and buzzed, her face was pale, her fingertips were cold, she clenched her hands hard, and the whole person seemed to be dead and alive again.
She turned around and left stiffly, and came to the door of Mother Qian with a blank face.
"How much did you sell for?" Her eyes were like stagnant water, and her voice was hoarse.
Mother Qian's eyes flashed, and she lowered her head to sort out her clothes: "What is not sold, I don't know!" ”
Qian Qianqian suddenly strode up, grabbed Qian Mu's hand, and roared: "Who did you sell the things I put in Xiaohui's house!" How much silver was sold! ”
"Five or five hundred taels, all of them were sold to the pawnshop in the town."
Mother Qian didn't expect those things to be so valuable, and it was much faster than the jewelry she pawned and sold, and she easily scraped together five hundred taels of silver.
Qian Mu Nunu's mouth, in the end, was still a little weak, and her voice was not small: "Anyway, it's all sent by others......"
There are at least twenty or thirty kinds of things that Qian Mu took from the box, each of which is worth a lot of money, and there are many rare things that are priceless and unmarketable, not to mention a total of five hundred taels, and there are more than five hundred taels when she takes it out alone!
And most of the things that Xiao Mohan got were abnormal, either on the battlefield on the frontier, or they were given by the emperor himself, she didn't dare to touch those things, and Mother Qian actually sold them?
Qian Qianqian glanced at Qian's mother coldly, gave up reasoning with her, and went out to the pawnshop.
"Boss, may I ask if there was a woman two months ago, who was as tall as me, and brought some rare things to you to pawn?"
The pawnshop owner quickly played with the abacus in his hand, and he didn't raise his head when he heard the words, just shook his head and continued to fiddle with the abacus.
Qian Qianqian clapped her hands, turned away worriedly, and said to herself: "This is a disaster, there is only one pawnshop in the town, if it is not this, who else can be harmed?" ”
"Wait a minute."
The pawnshop owner raised his head and put his abacus aside: "What do you mean by that?" ”
Qian Qianqian sighed: "The boss doesn't know, the origin of those things is not simple, they are things that can be seen and not used in the hands of the owner, and they are unlucky things that will be killed on the market." ”
The pawnshop owner was numb when he heard this: "Okay, don't talk to me here, the things are here, if you want to take them, let's follow the rules, silver." ”
If you do business, you have to make money.
"How much money did you make?" Qian Qianqian was deliberately tempting.
The pawnshop owner did not hide it: "Five hundred taels, if you want to take it back, you will get eight hundred taels of silver." ”
With an extra three hundred taels of silver, Qian Qianqian laughed and said decisively: "Five hundred and fifty taels, the extra fifty taels will be compensated to the boss for your storage fee." ”
Fifty taels should be sent to call Hanako? The pawnshop owner sneered: "Boss Qian is also in business, so he should know that there is no such reason." ”
Qian Qianqian said helplessly: "I won't tell you, these things are mine, I was fortunate to help General Xiao at the beginning, and he was generous, so he rewarded me with these things." As a result, none of the mothers in the family paid attention to it and sold it as an idle thing. ”
I didn't pay attention to it, I'm afraid it's been planned for a long time. The pawnshop owner didn't say anything, and looked at Qian Qianqian with a smile, and he listened to how she could convince him.
Qian Qianqian sighed, and seemed to be very helpless: "It's useless, and if you sell it, you will sell it, but I think about those things that have been stained with blood and bathed in Long'en, so don't go out and cause trouble to others, so I want to take it back." If the boss doesn't want to, then you can keep it, but anyone who can afford these things, I don't think anyone has the eyesight to see it. ”
The pawnshop owner glanced at Qian Qianqian coldly, and had to say that this little girl had some means.
didn't rush up to him and ask him what he wanted for those things that were sold, but in and out of the words, he couldn't afford to leave those things.
The pawnshop owner's last line of defense was broken by Qian Qianqian's words.
"Besides, General Xiao happens to be in the town......"
The pawnshop owner immediately decided: "Five hundred and fifty taels, I'll go get something, you prepare silver!" ”
