Chapter 62: The eldest lady is not for nothing

For two days in a row, Xiao Ba and the two hid in their own rooms without any contact. It wasn't until the fourth day of staying in the hotel that Hachi came to the front of Xiaoxifang. In fact, he didn't want to come, but the deposit they paid was no longer enough to pay the rent, and he only had more than fifty taels of silver in his hand, and he was paying for a day at most. At this time, you have to decide whether to go or stay, and of course stay for another day...

"Bang bang, bang bang" Xiaoba knocked on Hu Xiaoxi's door gently.

"It's coming" With Xiaoxi's response, the door opened. Seeing Xiao Ba standing outside the door, Hu Xiaoxi was also stunned. The voice asked coldly, "What are you doing here?"

"I... I'm sorry two days ago..."Xiaoba grinned, and nodded to Hu Xiaoxi with some embarrassment.

"Oh, I forgot about jì. Then you can go" Xiaoxi didn't give him a good look because of Hachi's answer, and said that he was about to close the door.

"Wait," Xiao Hachi stretched out his hand and pressed against the door of the house that Xiao Xi was closing, "That... I have something to tell you..."

"Say it quickly. Xiaoxi said coldly.

"We've used up all the deposits, and now I only have more than fifty taels, shall we check out?" Xiao Hachi scratched his head a little embarrassed.

Hearing what Xiao Bayi said, Hu Xiaoxi patted his head: "Oh, I forgot about it, come with me." He locked the door, gestured to Hachi, and walked out.

There is a jade street in the north of Ailan City, the reason why it is called Jade Street is not because the street is made of jade, but because this street is mainly merchants from the northern Monrok, and the goods they trade in are basically jade gemstones.

Xiao Hachi, who followed Xiao Xi here in a daze, looked at the dazzling array of jewelry and jade around him, and he didn't understand what Xiao Xi was going to do.

At this time, Xiaoxi came to a stall selling jade. The peddler immediately put on a friendly smile and asked, "What do you want to choose?" I'll give the girl a discount if I've picked it."

Xiao Xi nodded, and didn't reply to the vendor, just churning in front of all kinds of jade placed there. After rummaging through almost all the jade, Xiaoxi picked up a white bracelet and asked, "Boss, how much is this?"

The vendor glanced at the bracelet in Xiaoxi's hand and said with a smile: "The girl really knows the goods, this is the better goods I have here, if the girl wants it, two hundred taels will be given to you." ”

Xiao Xi looked at the vendor and shook his head and said, "Two taels of silver." ”

Now the vendor owner didn't do it: "Girl, you're not kidding, look at the smoothness of this bracelet, this sense of transparency, this is an ice species, one hundred and fifty taels is the lowest." ”

Xiaoxi ignored the boss, and said calmly: "Two two." ”

The vendor continued to introduce to Xiaoxi with a white face, where the bracelet was good. Even Xiaoba, who was listening to the introduction, felt that Xiaoxi was too ruthless, how could he cut the price like this. I'm not so ruthless when I'm so obsessed with money.

But no matter what the boss says, Xiaoxi is determined that it is two taels, and he loves to sell or not.

After the vendor told Xiaoxi with a crying, aggrieved, and unwilling face for nearly half an hour. Xiaoxi was finally moved to three taels, and one or two of them Xiaoxi said to buy water for the vendors to drink.

Then when Xiao Ba's face was incredible, Xiao Xi traded the bracelet with the vendor for three taels of silver.

After buying the bracelet, Xiaoxi was obviously in a good mood, and shook it in front of Xiaoba: "Is it good-looking?"

"Well... Pretty. At this time, Hachi had not yet recovered from the shock of Xiaoxi bargaining.

"It's a pity it's fake" Just when Hachi thought that Xiaoxi was going to show off to himself that he had made money, Xiaoxi's words almost didn't make Hachi vomit blood.

"Fake! Why are you buying it!?Miss, we can't eat, so we can only sleep on the streets!" roared at Xiaoxi, at this time, Xiaoba still had the excitement just now.

"What's the hurry, you'll know if you come with me. Xiaoxi didn't care, and took Xiaoba to a cloth village called "Niu Coaxing" on the most prosperous street in the central district of Ailan.

As soon as they entered the door, a guy greeted them and introduced them to Xiaoxi and the others: "This young lady, son, do you want to pick cloth? We have everything, both local and foreign." ”

Xiaoxi didn't look at the cloth, and said to the guy: "Call Boss Niu out and say that someone has come to see him." The man hesitated, but ran to the back room and called out the boss.

The boss was a middle-aged man with short hair, slightly fat, and a shiny face, and he was stunned when he saw Hu Xiaoxi. Then he greeted him with a smile on his face, "Niece Shi, why are you here?" ”

Xiaoxi ran over and grabbed the boss's arm and said in a greasy voice: "Uncle Niu, I'm here to ask you for help, you have to help Xiaoxi." ”

Boss Niu laughed and said, "Niece, if you have something, just speak." Uncle Niu will definitely help you. ”

"Well, Uncle Niu is the best. Uncle Niu, I lost my luggage when I passed by, and the money was in it... Soβ€”" He lowered his head a little embarrassed.

Boss Niu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "No problem, niece, I still have some money for you first." How much do you want. ”

"That's a thousand taels... Good no good. ”

"Thisβ€”" Boss Niu frowned. Seeing this, Xiaoxi stretched out his hand with the bracelet to Boss Niu and said, "Uncle Niu, I know it's not good for Bai to be with you, and you are also hard-earned money, so I'll put my bracelet on you, and when I get home, I'll send someone to change it back, can you see it?"

As soon as Boss Niu heard Xiaoxi say this, he immediately said with a smile: "Niece, can Uncle Niu still trust you, our two families have been friends for so many years, and Brother Hu takes care of me so much in Nanya City." It's just that Uncle Niu and I just bought a batch of goods, and the money in my hand has been replaced by me, so it's really not that much. If you don't say a thousand taels, it's a few thousand taels more, niece you want it, and Uncle Niu will give it happily. ”

Xiaoxi nodded as if she understood very well and said, "Then Uncle Niu, how much can you borrow from me?"

Boss Niu lowered his head and thought for a while, stomped his feet and said: "Niece, I still have less than 1,000 taels of cash here, and Uncle Niu doesn't lie to you, I have to set aside 200 taels so that the business can operate.

Xiaoxi pretended to think about it, then nodded and said, "Okay, then eight hundred taels." As he spoke, he took off the bracelet and handed it to Boss Niu.

Boss Niu took the bracelet and said, "No, no, niece, can I still ask you to press something?"

Of course, Xiaoxi wouldn't pick up the bracelet, she hurriedly hugged Uncle Niu's arm, continued to shush the cold and ask for warmth, and chatted about homely things.

It didn't take long for Xiaoxi to take a silver ticket of eight hundred taels and take Xiaoba out of the cow coaxing cloth village. As soon as he went out, Hachi couldn't help but ask, "Do you know them?"

"That's right. Xiao Xi dusted off the silver ticket in his hand and replied with a smile: "He is a businessman, and sometimes he will pass by Nanya City to buy goods." Of course, we have to have our family to protect it. ”

"Then why do you still bet the bracelet on him, can't you just borrow it from him?" asked Hachi curiously.

"I'll borrow it directly, and he insisted that he didn't have any money, so give us one or two hundred taels, what is enough?" Xiao Xi pouted and continued: "Besides, the bracelet is pressed on him, and he doesn't know the goods, so he doesn't have to pay back the money." ”

"Uh... What if he finds out it's fake?"

"If he finds out, he will find out, then he can only suffer a dumb loss, does he dare to take a fake bracelet to the door to ask for debts? The dignified eldest lady of the Hu family, how can she bring a fake? Let me tell you, my eldest lady is not in vain! A person is here, even if he wears a fake, it is true on me. If you're like that, no matter how good the things you bring, others will think they're fake. That's identity. As he spoke, Xiaoba arched his mouth. Listening to Xiaoxi, although Xiaoba was very angry, he couldn't find the words to refute her at all. After all, although what she said was not good, it was all true. muttered in a low voice: "Sure enough, women are too cunning." He snatched the silver ticket in Xiaoxi's hand, put it in his arms and ran to the Allure Restaurant. Xiao Xi, who was stomping his feet and scolding himself shamelessly behind him, made a grimace and shouted loudly: "Miss, the money is still safe with me." Put it on you, and it won't be long before you run out of money to settle the bill. ”
