Chapter 130: Break the Night Pearl?
And there are a lot of people who come here to die directly, which is the kind of pawn mode that is no longer redeemed.
When many people come to pawn, they feel that they are fully capable of redeeming the pawned item within the time limit, but when it expires, they find that they do not have that ability at all, so the pawned item naturally becomes the pawn shop's own.
There are many such things in the pawnshop, but there are many real treasures, so the owner of the pawnshop has opened another model, which is to sell treasures.
In the past, most of the pawnshops that expired were sold to the corresponding treasure firms, and although they could make some money by selling them, they were far less than they could make by finding someone to get rid of them.
In particular, after the actual sale, the owner of the pawnshop also came up with a similar auction model, and held a centralized auction of those treasures every once in a while, so that the rich people who participated in the auction could bid on their own, and the highest bidder would win.
In this way, the money earned from getting rid of those treasures has been raised to a new level.
Not only that, after several successful auctions, it has also made a certain reputation for Chen Kee Pawnshop, and now many pawnshops have begun to imitate Chen Kee Pawnshop and carry out such business.
However, after all, Chen Ji Pawnshop is the first person who dares to eat crabs, and his status in the pawn industry in this dusty city cannot be shaken by other pawnshops, so Chen Ji Pawnshop does not care about the imitation of other pawnshops, because since someone imitates it, this also symbolizes Chen Ji's name, right?
The more people imitate, it means that everyone recognizes this model, but it plays a positive role in the promotion of Chen Kee Pawnshop.
After understanding this, Lin Xiao only told the guy that the purpose of his visit was only to pawn the items, and he was not interested in the treasures auctioned.
Just kidding, how could the so-called treasures in the mortal world that made those people fight for their heads be looked at by Lin Xiao, a cultivator?
The young man in purple was also in his twenties, but he was already relatively shrewd, seeing the texture of the clothes Lin Xiao was wearing, as well as the powerful temperament he faintly revealed, he knew in his heart that such a person had never seen any treasures, so naturally he would not be interested in the so-called treasures of their Chen Ji pawnshop, so he didn't speak, and directly led Lin Xiao into a hall behind the store.
Behind the shop, however, is a large hall, with a more elegant layout than the previous one, separated by a hollow wooden baffle, each with delicate tables and chairs, strangely shaped tea cups, and young maids waiting nearby, making people feel very relaxed as soon as they enter the place.
Lin Xiao was also very curious about this layout, he glanced around, it felt like those tea restaurants and restaurants on the earth, but seeing the pretty maid in a green dress, the faint smile on her face when she served tea and poured water, made him, a junior brother who had never even had a girlfriend, feel itchy.
But it's just an itch in his heart, but Lin Xiao knows that he has to be strict with himself, and try to provoke these mortal women as little as possible, so as not to really fall in love with any mortal woman, and when she grows old day by day, he can only watch her grow old slowly, which is a great torture.
The young man in purple led Lin Xiao into a compartment, respectfully invited Lin Xiao to sit down and drink a cup of tea, and waited here for a while, then he turned around and asked the shopkeeper in charge of pawning.
Lin Xiao didn't wait long, he drank about two or three sips of tea, and by the way, he ate all the two baked cakes he bought from the old man's stall, and the purple-clothed man walked in with a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was extremely thin and tall, wearing a dark red satin shirt printed with copper coins, his face was also extremely long, his eyebrows were very light, and his narrow eyes were two black eyeballs the size of broad beans, but they showed a touch of essence.
The middle-aged man was naturally the shopkeeper in charge of the pawn in the mouth of the purple-clothed guy, but he was sharp-eyed, and saw Lin Xiao eat the last bite of the baked cake, and finally drank the fragrant tea provided in their box, and was immediately stunned, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he turned his head to look at the purple-clothed guy lightly.
The purple-clothed guy also noticed the oiled paper that Lin Xiao put on the table to wrap the baked cakes, and when the middle-aged man looked at it, his face suddenly became embarrassed.
Perhaps in the eyes of the middle-aged man, a person who even eats baked cakes with such relish, what kind of precious things would he pawn? It can't be wearing a piece of clothing that he found somewhere, and come here to entertain them, right?
Even if they broke the heads of the middle-aged man and the purple-clothed guy, it is estimated that they would not have thought that Lin Xiao was actually a cultivator, and he was also a cultivator who had just practiced in retreat for two or three hundred years, and he had just reshaped his body and could perceive the normal taste, so he bought two baked cakes to relieve his hunger, and experienced the eating experience that he had not experienced for a long time.
The middle-aged man entered the box, and felt the faint momentum on Lin Xiao's body at close range, although he was deliberately restrained, but still revealed invisibly, and suddenly felt that his previous judgment was wrong, the young man in the blue robe in front of him, this kind of temperament could not be pretended, and he was obviously not an ordinary person.
Therefore, the middle-aged man was holding doubts in his heart, but he didn't dare to underestimate Lin Xiao, and asked Lin Xiao very enthusiastically: "Chen Xiaochun, the second shopkeeper of the contemptible Chen Ji Pawnshop, I don't know what to call the distinguished guest? What treasures are you going to pawn in the small shop? Our Chen Ji Pawnshop is also a pawn shop with a good reputation in this dusty city, and we will definitely give your customers a reasonable high price to make your customers satisfied." ”
"It turned out to be the shopkeeper Chen, disrespectful and disrespectful!" Lin Xiao saw that the shopkeepers were so enthusiastic and polite, he was embarrassed to sit there and talk to people, and he also arched his hand to Chen Xiaochun with his fist, learning the dialogue in the costume TV series, and said to Chen Xiaochun: "My surname is Lin, a single name is a word, I can't be called a distinguished guest, Chen shopkeeper just call me Xiaolin, I came to your store, but I want to pawn some night pearls, pawn a silver or gold of one or two hundred thousand as a spare flower." ”
"Night Pearl?" Chen Xiaochun was stunned, and the purple-clothed guy standing behind him was also stunned.
But it's not that Chen Xiaochun and the purple-clothed guy are rare and strange, they naturally see the night pearl often, pawn shop, I haven't seen any valuable jewelry, it's just ...... Even if it is a small night pearl that is not very good, it is estimated that it is at least more than 500,000 taels, but this young man named Lin Xiao said that he only pawned one hundred or twenty thousand taels, is it difficult to break the night pearl pawn?
