Chapter Forty-Six: Priceless Treasures
"The most unfortunate thing is that our Pingchuan Tavern is located at the junction of the east and west of the town, which is good, both sects come to collect rent and tax. ”
"And they saw that our tavern was big and the business was good, and the charges were higher than others, and they made excuses to blackmail our tavern every now and then, so after only a few months, we couldn't stand it, we were originally in the tavern on the right, and now we can't afford to rent such an expensive land, so we have to find this small façade and continue to make a living. ”
Zhu Xiaodan understood this time: it turned out that the luxuriously decorated tavern on the right side of the Pingchuan Tavern used to be the Pingchuan Tavern, and now it has only moved to this simple small façade.
She couldn't help but interject and asked, "Since you are at the junction of the east and west of the town, and both sides come to collect money, why don't you move to the east or west of the town, so that at most there is only one side to collect your rent?"
Guan Shopkeeper's face became the same as a bitter gourd, and he said helplessly: "Girl, why don't I want to, but if I move to the east of the town, Wuyang will come to smash me, if I move to the west of the town, the Red Ayatang will come to smash me again, and I can't afford to offend on both sides." ”
"It's because they're overbearing because they're accumulating money, and although our tavern business is good, there's very little profit left every month. ”
"That's why I deliberately decorated the façade simply, so that they wouldn't come to collect money every day!"
"I'm still worried about this month's taxes, and it's almost the end of the month. ”
Shopkeeper Guan pounded the table as he spoke, almost crying.
Mu Caidie and Zhu Xiaodan looked at each other and understood. Mu Caidie said: "Big shopkeeper, in this case, you might as well consider selling that piece of ebony to us and save my grandfather's life, you are a good person and have a good reward, my whole family is grateful to you, this transaction will definitely not let you suffer." ”
Guan shopkeeper immediately remembered, yes! I keep this broken wooden board is really useless, although it is ancestral, but now it is so embarrassing, take it to exchange for some silver coins, human nature!
What's more, this broken wood may really be able to save a human life, even the spirit of the ancestors in the sky, and they won't blame me, right? Saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter!
The shopkeeper almost wanted to make a direct offer, but after thinking about it, it wasn't right.
If no one picks up such a piece of broken wood and throws it on the road, who would pay for it? Even if someone buys it, it's not worth a lot of money.
He looked up at the two girls in front of him and said, "This ...... You guys...... Do you really want to buy it?"
Zhu Xiaodan said with a smile: "Yes, shopkeeper, you can make a price! ”
The shopkeeper himself was really embarrassed to make a price, this broken wood was worth a few dollars: "You can look at it." ”
"It's a family heirloom that has been in my family for hundreds of years. He didn't forget to add.
He also deliberately used family heirlooms, hundreds of years, these words, I hope to raise the price somewhat.
"Ten gold coins, is it okay?" Zhu Xiaodan didn't even think about it, she has always been cheerful, but she is not a fool, this legendary Yuan Tian ebony gold wood is really a priceless treasure, let alone ten gold coins, even ten thousand gold coins can't be bought.
"Oh, ten silver coins, that's okay...... This one...... No problem. "Shopkeeper Guan was a little slurred, much better than expected, I thought it would be good to sell two or three silver coins at most.
After all, although this is his own family heirloom, in the eyes of others, let alone a silver coin, even if it is a copper coin, no one will ask for it.
Suddenly, the shopkeeper's eyes opened, his head was buzzing, and he was busy: "Girl...... What do you say, gold coins? Did I hear me right? It's gold coins, it's not silver coins?"
It seems that I just heard that it was indeed gold coins? Yes, one gold coin is equal to ten silver coins. Ten silver coins is a hundred gold coins, which is many, many times more than I expected!
Zhu Xiaodan nodded and said, "Yes, ten gold coins, what do you think of the shopkeeper?"
"This ...... How embarrassing...... Ten gold coins...... A piece of broken wood, ahem. The shopkeeper Guan was so excited that his mouth seemed to be calloused.
Unexpectedly, these two girls either have a brain problem, or they are good people.
But seeing that they are radiant, they don't look like there is something wrong, then they must be good people. How could such a good thing happen to my old guan, the sky has eyes! The ancestors have appeared! Save me at the critical moment.
Thinking of this, Guan Shopkeeper's tears almost fell out.
He stood up and tried to say something decent with pretended composure, but his knees refused to obey. Before he could stand firmly, he fell to his knees.
Zhu Xiaodanhua said with a pale: "Big shopkeeper, why is it such a big gift, the little girl can't afford it, hurry up." She hurriedly took out a handful of gold coins from her purse and stuffed them into the hands of the shopkeeper Guan who was still kneeling on the ground.
Guan took the gold coin, quickly got up, and wanted to seriously count whether it was enough for ten, but the gold coin with both hands was trembling, and he couldn't click it, so he could only count it with his eyes, one, two, three......
It seems that there are more than a dozen, more than ten, and each of them is a real gold coin, and it is definitely not a fake. Guan shopkeeper thought to himself: Could it be that this girl made a mistake?
He quickly hid the gold coin in his arms and yelled outside: "Someone!
When the shopkeeper heard the shopkeeper's shout, he thought something was wrong, so he hurriedly ran over: "Shopkeeper, what are you talking about? Who wants to tear down our signboard?"
"You, go and take down the signboard and give it to this girl!" The big shopkeeper has calmed down a lot at this moment, and has restored the prestige of the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "Okay...... But this sign is quite high, I have to go to the next door to borrow a ladder, I'll go right away!" Although he was confused, he felt that the big shopkeeper was a little abnormal today, but he still planned to do so, and was about to turn around and borrow a ladder.
Mu Caidie hurriedly said: "This little brother, don't bother, you go to the store to get busy, we can just go and get it ourselves." ”
The two ran to the door of the tavern, and Mu Caidie asked Zhu Xiaodan: "How is it?" Zhu Xiaomei, are you on or on me?"
"I'm coming!" Zhu Xiaodan thought of Yuan Tian Wujinmu, and his heart was also excited, he rolled up his sleeves, stepped on the floor, and flew towards the plaque.
Phoenix Nest Hunting!
Zhu Xiaodan's light skills are still very good, and he just arrived at the plaque, holding the plaque in his hand, and his body is suspended in mid-air. As luck would have it, the dragon scale hook on his wrist shot out several very dazzling rays of light, cutting off the eight ropes tied to the plaque on the lintel, and then landed gently.
This legendary Yuan Tian Wujin Wood, which shocked the heavens, disturbed the underworld, and scattered the world, and contained the essence of 36,000 ghosts and spirits, and also contained the essence of hundreds of thousands of spiritual herbs, has since fallen into the hands of Zhu Xiaodan, the descendant of Zhu Hezi, a master weapon.
On the street, there are also a lot of pedestrians at this moment, seeing this girl, with a bird with three feet and three tails, flying up two feet high, extremely wonderful, and also in Lang Lang, broad daylight, in front of everyone's eyes to dismantle the signboard of the most famous Pingchuan Tavern in Fenshui Town, I don't know what happened, they all came around to see the excitement.
