Chapter 145: Pawn

After leaving Nanwu Mountain, the butcher asked Gu Zuo, "Why hasn't the hall owner been talking?"

Gu Zuo looked back at Nanwu Mountain, which had long been submerged in the mountains, and took a deep breath: "Senior brother, believe me or not?"

The butcher looked at Gu Zuo and said, "If I say I don't believe it, will it be useful?"

Gu Zuo shook his head, and suddenly laughed: "It's useless, it's useless for the Heavenly King Lao Tzu to come this time!"

Gu Zuo had to hurry up and take the treasure in his hand. That's right, he's going to take out the family money.

In today's Montenegrin County, Gu Zuo has two choices, one is the Spring and Autumn Pawnshop, and the other is the Tongda Pawnshop.

Needless to say, the Spring and Autumn Pawnshop is the same as the Profit Money Village, it is a large trading house opened by the Spirit Beast Department and bears part of the official seal of the Black Mountain Edict. Tongda pawnshop has a more powerful background, it was opened by the Li Tang royal family, and they are the same as Tongda Qianzhuang, with branches all over the world, and they are the top shops in the entire Tang Dynasty, and they also have branches in Montenegro County. In terms of competition, Gu Zuo should go to Tongda Pawnshop to avoid the Spirit Beast Department deliberately lowering the price and even making trouble because of his participation in the bidding for Nanwu Prefecture.

But after careful consideration, Gu Zuo still chose the Spring and Autumn Pawnshop. Today's Huaixian Pavilion, although its strength is not on the big stage, it is also a little famous, especially the relationship with the Spirit Beast Department is very iron, and many people regard the Huaixian Pavilion as a sect of the Spirit Beast Department.

In this relationship, when dealing with the Spirit Beast Department, you must be cautious and careful not to fall into the handle, rather than hiding it, it is better to send it to the door generously, notify the other party as soon as possible, and avoid the other party's misjudgment and causing unnecessary trouble. Even if you suffer a little loss in price, you still treat things as if they were in the other party's shop. Of course, if the other party's price is too low, and then choose Tongda Qianzhuang, the Spirit Beast Department can't complain about anything.

Although the big shopkeeper Mr. Zhong Er was not there, several stewards still received him attentively, and welcomed Gu Zuo in to serve tea, Gu Zuo was also respectful, the stewards in the pawn shop were all building foundations and cultivating people, all of them could be called seniors, how could he dare not be respectful.

First ask the steward: "How is the auction scheduled this winter?"

A large pawnshop of such a scale as the Spring and Autumn Pawnshop must have its own auction, and the person in charge immediately said: "Ready to arrange it at the end of November, the owner of the Gu Pavilion has something to auction?"

Gu Zuo groaned: "There is something that is ready to be entrusted to your bank, but it is not very good in terms of time. ”

The steward said, "If it's a small piece, I might as well take charge of it, and if it's too valuable, I'll have to wait for the big treasurer to come back." ”

Gu Zuo said: "The value should be more than 1,000 times." ”

The man in charge laughed twice: "Then let's wait for the big shopkeeper." ”

In the evening, Mr. Zhong Er came back and held a banquet to entertain Gu Zuo.

After drinking two cups, Gu Zuo directly informed Mr. Zhong Er of the news of the cooperation between Huaixian Pavilion and Baihuamen.

Mr. Zhong Er was stunned for a moment, and Fang said, "Does Pavilion Master Gu have such strong strength?"

Gu Zuo said: "I will find a way to raise money." ”

Mr. Zhong Er said: "Pavilion Master Gu, forgive me for saying a word that I don't like to hear, the more you raise, the more you will lose in the future, why bother?"

Gu Zuo was silent for a moment and said, "I want to try." ”

Mr. Zhong Er shook his head with a smile, and said disapprerovingly: "It's not such a trial method, Baihuamen is not a good choice, and the hidden dangers are not small." ”

Gu Zuo squeezed out a smile: "I really want to attach the tail of your department, but you don't accept my little family background." I know Baihuamen has a bad reputation, but who else can I work with besides them?"

“...... Anyway, the contract has been signed, and I can't persuade you anymore, so how do you want to raise money? Listen to my steward below, you want to be a baby?"

"Actually, it's not much of a baby, but this is my last family, this thing was originally intended to be kept in the town hall, and it belongs to whoever moves me and I fight with whom, alas...... Who would have thought that it would be Gu who would personally take action......"

A stone the size of a bull's head was placed on the table, glowing in the darkness, as deep as a starry sky.

Mr. Zhong Er's breathing suddenly became short, he stretched out his palm and gently touched it, touched it for a while, and suddenly walked out quickly, and came back with a magic weapon after a while, similar to a small copper scale.

When he returned, he put the stone on the tray and began to observe the various changes on the weighing rod, after which, he put away the small copper scale, put the stone back on the table, stared at it with a look of fascination, and muttered: "It is the ...... of heptin mica."

Turning his eyes to Gu Zuo, he wanted to ask about the origin of this piece of Gengjin mica, but he still held back, it was not in accordance with the rules.

Gu Zuo looked at Geng Jinmica, full of reluctance, and said, "Is this treasure still available?"

Mr. Zhong Er kept nodding: "Yes, of course, you want to auction? The Spring and Autumn Pawnshop Winter Auction is ready to start at the end of November......"

Gu Zuo shook his head: "I need money." ”

Mr. Zhong Er suddenly said: "Then just sell us the Spring and Autumn Pawn! How much do you want?"

Gu Zuo asked, "Can you pledge some money out?"

Mr. Zhong Er said: "If you come according to the pawn, I can only give you 6,000 yuan, three months, and after three months, it will be counted as a dead pawn, and this piece of mica is from the Spring and Autumn Pawnshop." ”

"Can't you have more?"

"The owner of the Gu Pavilion is a good friend, Zhong doesn't need to lie to you, the year before last, I sold Shuigeng phlogopite once in the Spring and Autumn Pawnshop, which is slightly smaller than this piece, and was purchased by the Wangwu faction at that time, and the transaction price was 15,000 yuan. This piece of hepthopthumous mica weighs a total of 16 catties, and it is estimated that it will be about 20,000 yuan when it is put out for auction. When the goods, the bid does not exceed 30% of the value of the goods, which is the rule of this industry, so it can be regarded as 6,000. But there's another way......"

"Speak, shopkeeper. ”

"I want to represent the Spirit Beast Department in my personal capacity and do this business with the Gu Pavilion Master, it just so happens that our Spirit Beast Department does lack this thing...... I'll buy it for 16,000 yuan, what do you think?"

Although hepthop phlogopite may be sold for 20,000 yuan, the premise is that it can be sold at auction, and there is a possibility that it will be unsold and no one will buy it, which is the reason that there is no market for price. The most important thing for this kind of tens of thousands of treasures is the buyer, and there are not many who can afford this price, let alone a one-time payment.

While Gu Zuo was still thinking about it, Mr. Zhong Er said again: "This is the highest price I can come up with, and the owner of the Gu Pavilion can also go to Tongda Pawnshop to try it and see how much they can get." In addition, if the owner of the Gu Pavilion wants to sell it, he must sell it as soon as possible, and he must get rid of it before the news of the cooperation between your Pavilion and Baihuamen spreads. ”

Gu Zuo smiled bitterly: "The shopkeeper is very sincere, and Gu is very grateful." But to be honest, it takes a lot of money to participate in the bidding for the Lingshi vein, and although sixteen thousand guan is a lot, it is still a big gap from the required amount. ”

Mr. Zhong Er said: "You can't expect a piece of heptanephthic mica to solve all problems. ”

Gu Zuo took a deep breath: "I understand, I'll try it with Baihuamen again and see if I can talk to them." ”

Mr. Zhong Er smiled and said, "It's okay, the Spring and Autumn Pawn welcomes the owner of the Gu Pavilion at any time, and this price remains the same." ”
