Chapter 3 Pick up a baby at the beginning

After pondering for a moment, Lin Wanwan then asked, "Since your aunt doesn't want you anymore, are you willing to come with me?"

The little guy tilted his head and asked, "Do you want to raise me?"

Lin Wanwan smiled, nodded and said, "Yes, I want to support you."

"Okay." The little girl immediately grabbed the hem of Lin Wanwan's skirt and looked at her expectantly. It was her dream to be raised by others. At her uncle and aunt's house, she didn't have enough to eat at all, so she just picked up food every day.

He eats seafood that others don't want to satisfy his hunger, sometimes chews grass roots, and gets beaten from time to time.

"Then you follow me." Lin Wanwan rolled up her sleeves and took off the mobile phone pendant from the small cosmetic bag hanging on her arm. This is a crystal football pendant. It is not worth a few dollars in modern times, but in ancient times, it must still be useful.

In exchange for some money.

So, Lin Wanwan took the little guy and slowly walked towards the pawn shop.

When the shopkeeper inside saw such a strange pair, he couldn't help but frowned: "Sir, what are you doing?"

Lin Wanwan didn't say any nonsense, walked up directly, handed the other party the crystal football that had just been removed, and said straight to the point: "I want this, you see how much it's worth."

When the old shopkeeper saw the crystal football in her hand, his eyes widened and he was shocked. This, this, this, this is a glass pendant, right? It's too delicate.

They are close to the sea and have a port for foreign trade. Among the imported goods from the Western Regions, there are such treasures.

The old shopkeeper took another quick look at Lin Wanwan and felt a little confused. Judging by her dress, she must be from a wealthy family, but she actually showed up in public without any maids by her side, and she also had a little beggar with her. Weird, so weird.

Is she some kind of runaway noble lady?

"Well, it's a good thing, but where did you get it, little lady? We don't accept things from unknown sources here," the old shopkeeper Lao Shen said.

Why don't you accept things from unknown sources? I believe you!

Lin Wanwan complained in her heart that pawnshops in ancient times had to have this awareness. Lin Wanwan was willing to write her name upside down, just to bargain for a higher price.

She immediately shook her hand, took back the crystal football, and said coldly: "In that case, leave."

"Hey, wait!" The old shopkeeper saw that she was about to retreat if she disagreed with her, so he immediately extended his hand to try to stay, "Forget it, I think the little lady is also in trouble, so I'll just be a good person for once. You Liuli

Pendant, do you want to pawn it alive or to death?"

Lin Wanwan asked: "How much is it worth to live? What if you die?"

Although she has never been a prostitute, Lin Wanwan still knows the rules of life and death in the 21st century where information is exploding. This is how a scholar can know the world without going out.

The old shopkeeper touched his beard and said slowly: "If you are a good pawn, I will give you one gold. After three months, you can redeem it with interest plus interest. If you are a dead pawn, I will give you two gold."

Lin Wanwan did not reply immediately, but thought for a while in her mind what the old shopkeeper meant by one gold and two gold. After a while, she said: "I need some change."

The old shopkeeper said: "No problem, one gold can be exchanged for six copper coins in the market. If the little lady is willing to die, I will give you one gold, and the remaining one gold will be exchanged for you six copper coins. How about it?"

Lin Wanwan didn't know the prices, but when the old shopkeeper was talking, she kept staring at the other person's eyes. When the other person said this, he spoke very quickly and did not dodge his eyes. He didn't look deceptive. Based on what he had seen before

Based on the knowledge of novels and historical materials, Lin Wanwan roughly knew that one gold was equal to one thousand gold. But in her impression, shouldn't one gold be equal to ten gold?

So, Lin Wanwan said casually: "Isn't one gold worth ten guan? Do you want to trick me?"

The old shopkeeper immediately called out to Chong Tianqu: "Hey, Auntie, where did you get the news? This is the third year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, not the last years of the previous dynasty when copper coins were worthless! You can get one gold

Where can I exchange ten guans?"

"Three years of Zhenguan..." Lin Wanwan thought secretly, "It turns out that it was under the rule of Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty. Fortunately, it was not a period like the Ming and Qing Dynasties when ethics and ethics were cannibalistic."

"Okay, then you have to give me good money for all your six coins." Knowing that it is now the third year of Zhenguan, Lin Wanwan feels more confident. She studied liberal arts and has quite strong historical knowledge.

Although she was inexplicably transported to a thousand years ago, she believed that with her ability, she could survive.

The next step was to sign the contract, pay the money with one hand, and deliver the goods with the other. Then Lin Wanwan took advantage of the situation and asked for a small piece of clothing that someone else had taken away from the store, and put it into the little guy who was half-clothed.

Although she was only four years old, Lin Wanwan was still very uncomfortable seeing the little guy's bare buttocks.

The little guy who got the clothes narrowed his eyes with joy.

She actually has clothes to wear! None of her cousins ​​at home have clothes to wear! Every time, whoever goes out wears clothes. But she has no clothes. Or her aunt wanted to take her out and throw her away today, so she put them on

A piece of rag.

I have money in my hand and I don’t feel panic.

After wrapping the money in blue cloth and covering it with wide sleeves, Lin Wanwan walked out of the store with the little one, her nerves tense. Since ancient times, money exposed to the naked eye will lead to disaster, let alone the Tang Dynasty a thousand years ago.

It will be the same in the future society.

Fortunately, Lin Wanwan is not powerless. She was beautiful and an orphan since she was a child. In order to protect herself, she has practiced Sanda diligently for many years.

Not long after, Lin Wanwan and her little one found an informal inn (regular inns required her to provide evidence, and without this, people would not dare to book a room for her).

After asking for the room, Lin Wanwan washed the little one from head to toe several times. The water changed from black to clear, giving her a full sense of accomplishment.

Finally, the cleaned little guy was probably tired and curled up on the couch in the room and fell asleep.

At this time, looking at the sun outside, it was almost noon. The little guy was only four years old. He was indeed at an age where he was short of sleep and could fall asleep at any time.

At this moment, the waiter in the store brought the pastries she ordered for lunch. Lin Wanwan glanced at them casually and was not interested. However, when the little one wakes up, he will definitely like to eat them.

Lin Wanwan stopped the waiter, gave him a few coins, pondered for a moment, and said in a tone as old-fashioned as possible: "To be honest, I have been living in the mountains with the master. The master went away a few days ago, so I went down the mountain to look for him.

Clan members, I don’t know the years in the mountains, so please don’t laugh at me. I don’t know where we are here and what year it is now?”

The waiter opened his eyes wide in surprise and said: "It turns out that your guest is an immortal from the mountains. No wonder you don't take a maid with you when you go out. It is the third year of Zhenguan. This is Wanghai Town, and the county government is not here. Guest, you are a hermit."

, I need to go to the county government office to find Xiao Mingfu. A while ago, a hermit master in the west of the town was personally picked up by Xiao Mingfu, and he was so famous! It is said that if you go out, you can become an official, and you can also meet the emperor and the saint!"

The shop assistant said with envy in his eyes.

The old pawn shop owner didn't fool me. This year is really the third year of Zhenguan.
