Chapter 20 The pot is full

I saw that the person who came was very generous. He threw down five taels of silver in an understatement and ordered his servants to come forward and get the car.

The old man was heartbroken when he saw that the car he had originally received was taken away.

I wanted to start my argument, but when I saw that the person was elegant and elegant, I just went to that station and felt pressured.

He didn't dare to step forward to argue, and froze in place in a panic.

Ling Yun suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

He continued calmly, "For five taels of silver, you can only buy one."

The man raised his head slightly and glanced at him. He was not angry. It was just that the man in front of him wanted to ask for more money, and then he took out another five taels from his sleeve.

Just as he was about to throw it over, Ling Yun stopped him.

"Huh?" The man raised his head and glanced at Ling Yun, his eyebrows raised, obviously a little angry.

Seeing the gorgeous man slightly angry, Ling Daren was afraid that he would hurt Ling Yun, so he took the lead and stepped forward to block Ling Yun from behind.

Unexpectedly, Ling Yun stepped over him, bowed to the man first, and said calmly: "Sir, please calm down. What I meant when I said you can only buy one car with five taels of silver is that there is only the last one left here, not

Deliberately entertaining you."

"Are you kidding me? Aren't there exactly two cars there??" The man frowned and pointed at the two cars next to him and said coldly.

"What a coincidence for this gentleman, this car has just been sold to this father-in-law." Ling Yun pointed to one of the cars, and then looked at the old man.

When the old man heard Ling Yun's words, he burst into tears of gratitude. Thinking about what he had said before about calling people profiteers, he felt ashamed.

"How much did he pay?"

"Eight hundred texts."

"How much money can I pay?" Hearing that the man offered 800 yuan, he couldn't help but sneer, as if Ling Yun was joking with him.

"The amount you paid is naturally five taels of silver."

"Oh, of course I know that the five taels of silver I offered can't be worth the eight hundred wen he offered?"

"No."

"Then why don't you sell it to me and have to sell it to him?" The man was puzzled and looked at Ling Daren. The price is so different. Even if this kid has a broken brain, you can't ignore it!

"As the saying goes, you pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other. Since I took his money, I have to deliver the goods to him. I can't regret it because you paid a high price. This is the credit of a person." Faced with an aggressive person.

Man, Ling Yun dealt with it calmly.

The old man did not expect that this young boy in front of him would not only be willing to sell him for 800 yuan, but he would also never expect that he would give up to others for him.

After all, it was a man who offered five taels of silver, but he decisively refused without even frowning.

Such a trustworthy person is really admirable. He will definitely achieve great things in the future!

Ling Yun also wants five taels of silver!

That’s real money!

He is not stupid. Five taels of silver is a huge change for him and their family. Even if they have made a lot of money today, who would think it is too much money?

But the ancients paid most attention to reputation. A promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold.

He is a person who wants to take the scientific examination, and he cannot let his life be stained for a mere five taels of silver.

Thinking like this, he could only reluctantly part ways with her.

"oh?"

Ling Yun's answer was obviously beyond his expectation. He had never thought that someone would actually give up money just to keep his word, and he was such a mean person.

The man couldn't help but look Ling Yun up and down, and then looked at Ling Daren behind him, and realized that the two of them were dressed in such shabby clothes. They must have come from poor families, and they would rather give up these five taels of silver for the sake of credit.

The man was thinking about it and was puzzled.

"Since there's only one car left, let's buy one." The man who couldn't ask for anything thought for a moment, stopped forcing, and then turned around and called, "Xiaoqiang, get the car, let's go."

Unexpectedly, Ling Yun spoke up again and interrupted him: "Sir, please wait a moment."

Ling Daren and the old man couldn't help but feel nervous. They had just breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the man turning around to leave.

Unexpectedly, they were stopped by Ling Yun again. When he turned around, the two of them were unknowingly frightened.

He looked at Ling Yun with a look of complaint, not knowing what he was going to do.

"What else do you want?" The man turned back in confusion and glanced at him with such a sharp look that Ling Yun was startled behind his back.

"Sir, I just saw that you like this car very much. If you really want another car, why don't you ask the father-in-law next to me if he is willing to part with me?"

The man had a flash of inspiration, understood it in his mind, and couldn't help but secretly wonder why he hadn't thought of this.

Judging from the way this old man dresses and behaves, he does not come from a rich family, he must also come from a poor family.

Thinking that as long as the money is high, you may not be willing to give up love. After all, not everyone can refuse the temptation of money.

So he immediately bowed his hands to the old man and said, "Old man, can you part with this car to someone? I am willing to buy it for five taels of silver."

Seeing the man bowing his hand to him, the old man bowed in fear. He was so worried that he didn't know how to respond, so he looked at Ling Yun in panic.

"Whether you want to sell it or not, you just have to say it. Even if you don't sell it, I'm sure this man won't fight for love." Ling Yun cheered him up from the side.

"I'll add another two taels." The man suddenly increased the price.

The old man's body was suddenly startled, and his heartstrings were obviously touched by the price. Zhan Zhan said loudly: "Sell it, I am willing to sell it."

The man took out seven taels of silver from his sleeve and handed it to the old man. The old man shivered and did not dare to reach out. Upon seeing this, Ling Yun took the silver directly and put it in his hand.

After spending money to get what he wanted from the old man, the man couldn't help but feel happy.

Before leaving, he looked at Ling Yun meaningfully and said with a smile, "You are very good."

Leaving the sweaty three behind, Ling Yun let out a long sigh and secretly said, "This man is so scary."

Ling Yun just now always felt an inexplicable pressure facing that man, which made him unable to breathe.

Even though he looked calm and calm on the outside, he was actually panicking on the inside.

Even though that person had left now, he still felt a chill in his back and lingering fear in his heart.

"Dad, please go and buy me some pens, ink, paper, inkstones and seals." Ling Yun, who had regained consciousness, immediately ordered Ling Daren.

"Okay, daddy will go right now." Ling Daren didn't know what Ling Yun wanted to buy for, but he thought that as long as his son wanted to buy it, it would only be of use to him.

Ling Yun turned around and saw among the crowd, standing the white-faced scholar who had just bought the first car. He stepped forward in confusion and asked: "Sir, is there anything else?"

The woman originally brought her husband to return the car, but just now the man was buying a car, and they were standing aside. They could see clearly what happened just now.

Unexpectedly, the stroller in their hands increased from one tael of silver to five taels of silver in less than an hour.

I wanted to leave, but saw Ling Yun walking forward.

"Oh, no...it's okay. We just wanted to go shopping and try out whether this car is as practical as you said." The scholar said in a panic with his eyes evasive.

"Oh, I see. Is the car practical?"

"Practical, very practical." The scholar touched the stroller and affirmed.

"Oh? Then why don't you put the child in the car? It will be more convenient for shopping."

"..."

"Let it go, let it go..."

Looking at the scholar who said something very strange, Ling Yun had doubts about himself. Could it be that he was so scary? Why did he feel that the man was hesitant in speaking?

He shook his head, thinking that he was overthinking it.

After a while, Ling Daren, who went shopping, ran back.

Seeing that he had bought what he needed, he shouted loudly: "Okay, fellow villagers, our stroller has been sold out. If anyone still wants to buy it, you can come to me to make a reservation now. The boy will still be there in three days."

Selling here."

“Can I still make a reservation?”

"What kind of reservation method?"

Everyone was excited. They thought they would never be able to buy it again. They never thought there would be more. They couldn't help but look up at Ling Yun, their eyes full of expectation.

"Those who want to buy it, please come to me first and pay 200 copper coins, sign and pledge it here, and keep it as evidence. Next time we will give priority to selling to you."

"What about the price?"

"That's right. The price shouldn't be five taels of silver, right?"

Passers-by asked about the price that they were worried about. If it cost five taels of silver per car, they might be powerless. Even if they wanted to buy it again, they would have to think twice about whether it was worth it.

"Please rest assured, the price is still the same as before, one or two silver a car. Don't miss it if you pass by. First come first served." Ling Yun shouted loudly.

"I want one, here's two hundred coins." He handed the money to Ling Yun, and Ling Yun motioned to Ling Daren to collect the money.

Ling Yun took out paper, ink, pen and inkstone and asked him to sign and seal it.

"I, I want one too."

"And I…"

"I also want…"



When everyone heard that they only needed one tael of silver, they immediately handed over the money and signed the pledge, for fear that Ling Yun would regret it.

After a while, a piece of paper was filled with names.

Ling Yun asked each of them to sign and pledge on two pieces of paper, keep one piece and give the other piece to them. After three days, they could pick up the car after making up the remaining money with this piece of paper.

After going back and forth, a total of twenty people were booked, and Ling Yun, who was satisfied, put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

"Dad, let's go." Ling Yun was about to leave after finishing everything.

The old man on the side hurried up and placed the seven taels of silver he had just received in front of Ling Yun, "This is the money you paid for selling the car just now."

"Well, what does this mean?"

"Without you, I just bought a car. What's more, I couldn't afford this car at all. I know that you are a kind-hearted kid, so you half-sold the car and gave it to me. Even though the car was in my hands,

Sell ​​it, but all the credit belongs to you. I dare not take the money. If I took the money, I would be uneasy!"

"I sold the car to you, and it is your car. I took your money. Since you have given me the money, the money from the sale of the car has nothing to do with me."

"This money is a transaction between you and that person. I am just a middleman. It has nothing to do with me emotionally or rationally. Why do you feel uneasy about taking it?"

"Having said that, but, but..." the old man hesitated, unable to explain why, he just stopped Ling Yun from leaving.

"Old man, since I have collected your car purchase money, I will not take any more of this money under any circumstances, so you can rest assured that I am my subordinate!"

"But…"

"No but, if you feel uneasy, just give me an extra 200 copper coins to make up one tael of silver. This way you won't feel like you owe me a favor for no reason."

"That's it, okay!" Seeing that Ling Yun was unwilling to accept the money, the old man had no choice but to give him another 200 copper coins.

He handed the money to Ling Yun, who accepted it decisively. The old man bowed and turned around and left in a hurry.
