Shi Jiu watched Zhao Luoyang straighten up. Sun Zhuang next to him was still smiling, apparently not noticing anything strange.
Nowadays, Zhao Luoyang is very skilled in placing recorders. If he hadn't been prepared for it, he would not have noticed it.
In his mind, Zhao Luoyang said: "It's a pity that I didn't see Mr. Liu in the shop, but the shopkeeper also has the benefits of being a shopkeeper. It will be easier to retrieve the recorder."
If you reveal some information to the servants of the Liu family, the Liu family will definitely take action, or at least ask someone trusted by the Liu family to come and talk to them.
At least Zhao Luoyang has someone who can place the recorder.
Sun Zhuang waited for the girl in front of him to sit down again. Now the girl should be able to talk about Ah Shu.
Zhao Luoyang looked at Zhao Yuanrang: "Where did you talk about?"
Zhao Yuanrang was a little confused for a moment, but he quickly realized that his sister had the best memory, how could he forget? The husband and the servant took a ginseng from them on the road, and his sister clearly remembered this.
When Master Chu and Zhao came to the village, Sister A still mentioned it.
Sister doesn't want to talk to the shopkeeper about what's going on in the village.
Shopkeeper Sun coughed: "I just said..."
As soon as he said a word, the young man said: "Sister, we want to sell ermine skins, and we have to buy cloth and silk for Nai to make clothes. Nai can't even wear these clothes."
"Yes," Zhao Luoyang laughed, "You have to sell the ermine skin, or else you'll have to blame us when you go back."
Zhao Xuejing looked at the backpack in his niece's hand, so the selling of leather goods was true? Even the mother knew about it? So why did she leave him alone?
Zhao Luoyang was reminded by his brother and looked at the shopkeeper with a smile: "Shopkeeper, how do you collect the ermine skins here?"
These people have ermine skins in their hands.
Although ermine skins are expensive, they can still be encountered by hunters. Sunzhuang did not doubt that he had them, and said with a smile: "The sales of ermine skins are always good, but you are a little late in selling them now."
Zhao Luoyang listened carefully: "Why is this?"
Sun Zhuang said: "The wealthy people in Dafu like to use ermine skins to make cloaks. Now that it's so cold, the merchants from Dafu have stopped coming. If we collect it, we can only sell it next year."
"It needs to be riddled with insects, and it needs to be protected from rat bites. If it gets heated, the skin will become hard."
Sun Zhuang said with a smile: "A month or two ago, if a good one could be sold for two cents, now...it is always a high price."
Silver squirrels are small to begin with, but the price for a piece of skin is already extremely high.
Zhao Luoyang said: "In other words, the leather we can sell in Taozhou is the most cost-effective right now."
Sunzhuang has been selling fur goods for many years, and he knows these things very well, but since last year, he has stopped working in the shop and has been working as a steward next to the uncle.
Today, the uncle wanted to inquire about the news in Fengxia Village, so he asked him to come to the shop.
Sun Zhuang was not afraid of giving more favors: "If you sell ermine skins, I will give you a total of two hundred coins. It is not easy for you to come this way."
"It's a pity that it's too late now. If it's better to change to another leather, I will definitely add more money."
Zhao Luoyang nodded as he listened.
Sun Zhuang looked at the bamboo basket: "Why don't you take out the leather and let me take a look."
Zhao Luoyang picked up the bamboo basket.
Zhao Xuejing couldn't help but look over, could he really take out skins from the bamboo basket?
Zhao Luoyang put her hand in and took it out. As if she was afraid of being seen, she never dared to lift the tattered clothes covering it. After a while, she took out a piece of leather and placed it in front of Sun Zhuang.
Sun Zhuang's eyes were fixed, and his face tightened.
Is this a joke on him?
Is this ermine skin?
After talking for a long time, this is ermine skin? Do they call this ermine skin? Some people may mistake ermine, but you can always tell the color of the fur, right?
Zhao Yuanrang and Zhao Yuanji couldn't help but look at each other.
The leather my sister took out was yellow.
Zhao Yuanrang rubbed his eyes, but if his sister said it was ermine skin, then it was ermine skin. Who said ermine must have white hair?
?
"Shopkeeper," Zhao Luoyang said, "do you think this fur is okay?"
Sun Zhuang secretly took a deep breath, wasting so much time in vain.
Sun Zhuang took the leather and inspected it carefully. He found that the leather was in good condition and the hair was thick and soft...
Sun Zhuang said: "The leather is good, but yours is not ermine skin, it is deer skin."
As he spoke, he went to look at the girl. There was no disappointment on her face: "Can we sell this rat skin in Taozhou?"
Sunzhuang was choked. He had said before that ermine skin could not be sold in Taozhou, but ermine skin was different. He just said that if he changed it to another skin, he would definitely give him some more money.
Who knew it would come true so soon.
If it wasn't for the purpose of asking the girl about Ah Shu earlier, how could he agree to it like this?
Sun Zhuang sighed: "Although rat skin can be sold in Taozhou, it is much cheaper than ermine skin. I can only give you seven hundred coins."
Normally, there is such a high price for collecting skins. For five or six hundred coins, the hunter would happily sell it. But now that he asked for seven hundred coins, he felt a little guilty, fearing that the girl would turn around and leave.
After finally getting the chance to meet the people from Fengxia Village, he couldn't just let them go.
"Then I'll go ask other shops," Zhao Luoyang said. "If the price you give is the highest, I'll come back."
Sun Zhuang knew that these people would come back to sell their skins after going out for a while, but... the uncle was still waiting for news from him. He couldn't keep the uncle waiting just for a few hundred coins.
Sun Zhuang pressed down the rat skin on the table and said, "It's not easy for you either. I'll take the nine hundred coins from this skin. You can also use some more money to buy cloth."
Nine hundred cents is an unprecedented price.
Zhao Luoyang was delighted: "Really?"
Sun Zhuang watched the girl let go of her hand happily, and was about to tell the boy to bring the money when he saw the girl picked up the bamboo basket and took out a piece of rat skin from it.
Sun Zhuang's eyes suddenly jumped, and a bad feeling arose spontaneously.
I didn't have much money, but the repeated torture was really unbearable.
Zhao Luoyang smiled and took out the items one by one.
When I got ten pieces of leather, Shi Jiu's voice came to my mind: "I received the charm value. It's the charm value of the character card. The Liu family is related to the character card mission."
[Character card charm value 4]
Shi Jiu said, "Do you still want to exchange the rat skin with the system?"
"Instead," Zhao Luoyang said, "Since the Liu family is related to the character card mission, we have to sell the fur to them. Even if the case is not investigated clearly, at least we will make some money first."
Although the weasel is not big, it is really surprising how much it can take out from a small bamboo basket.
Thirty deer skins were lined up.
Sun Zhuang couldn't help but frown.
Thirty pieces of rat skin, a total of twenty-seven pieces.
Zhao Xuejing was speechless for a long time. He suddenly remembered the look on his second brother's face every time he mentioned Sister Luo's money. No wonder it was like that.
When he came out from home, he only thought about spending money, but never thought about making money...
Twenty-seven coins is enough to buy paper, pens and books.
The boy counted the coins and put them on the table.
Zhao Luoyang put it away and handed it to his third uncle. Zhao Xuejing reached out and pinched the coins. They were heavy...it was true. Compared with him, Zhao Yuanrang and Zhao Yuanji were very calm.
They have long been accustomed to such things.
Zhao Luoyang picked up the bamboo basket and was about to stand up. Sun Zhuang immediately said: "Don't worry, sit down for a while. We just talked about the incident in the village..."
"Yes," Zhao Luoyang seemed to have just remembered it now, "I remembered, I was going to say this before."
Sun Zhuang breathed a sigh of relief. Although there were some twists and turns, it was still worth it.
Zhao Luoyang said: "After the government office took the body away, I actually discovered something else."
Sun Zhuang was a little nervous.
Zhao Luoyang said: "That night, it rained, and I got up to dry the clothes in the yard.
When I took it back, I saw someone running towards the house where Ah Shu's body was found."
Sun Zhuang shook his hand slightly: "Did you see clearly? Who is it?" The uncle has always suspected that someone else knows about this matter, maybe it is that person?
Zhao Luoyang said: "It's too dark to see clearly."
Sun Zhuang said: "Then...is it a boy or a girl?"
Zhao Luoyang thought about it carefully: "The image on the back is that of a woman."
Sun Zhuang was a little surprised, but he tried hard to suppress his emotions.
"Yes, that's the woman," Zhao Luoyang said, "I followed her until we reached the room, and then I heard her talking."
Sun Zhuang couldn't help but asked: "What did she say?"
Zhao Luoyang looked at Sunzhuang and said, "First she cried, then she said she was cold and hungry... I wanted to get closer, but I couldn't move my feet."
After saying this, Sun Zhuang frowned slightly.
Zhao Luoyang nodded affirmatively: "But I heard clearly, that's what she said. Later I told my grandma. My grandma said it was Ah Shu who came back."
Sun Zhuang seemed to lose his strength all of a sudden. He now knew why he felt weird.
What he wanted to hear was human talk, but this girl was talking about "ghosts" to him.
Ah Shu’s ghost? Who would believe it?
Sun Zhuang looked at the heavy bag of money. Why did he feel like he had been cheated?
