Qi Bao'er stood on the bicycle frame and threw herself into her father's arms. Qi Kang'an quickly caught her. Qi Bao'er took advantage of the situation and whispered in his ear:
"I found it on the archaeological shelf of the Wu Mansion. Dad still remembers a broken black stone. At that time, neither Qijin nor Wuzai wanted it. You also said that rich people are really weird. They treat every broken stone as a treasure.
Wuyou picked the fruit and I used it to crack the skin. Once I cracked the fruit, the contents inside were revealed, and I realized that it was a large piece of gold."
Qi Kang'an: "..." Gold, it's really gold.
Wait, that stone is quite big, it must weigh two or three kilograms.
"Bao, it's a whole piece?"
"No, it's just a round golden ball wrapped in the middle. It weighs about a pound."
That’s incredible, one tael of gold is exchanged for ten taels of silver, one pound is eight hundred taels, eight thousand taels of silver!!!
When praying for health, numbness starts from the sole of the foot and goes upward.
But before the smile on his face could bloom, he quickly straightened up and said seriously: "You can't tell anyone about this, not even your mother, father and mother. Only we, father and daughter, know about it.
We have no choice now but to borrow your money first, and when we are settled later, dad will have to make them return it to you every penny."
"Why?" Why didn't you even tell me?
"Silly boy."
Qi Kang'an pinched her nose angrily, "Your father and grandma are not only your father's son, but you are also your granddaughter. They are usually fine, but if someone really encounters a disaster, the palms and backs of their hands will be covered.
Can they really not care about meat?
At that time, they won’t have to ask you for anything. They will just look at you and make a bitter look on your face. Do you feel uncomfortable?
As for your mother, you still have two brothers."
It was basically unlikely that this would happen, but it was about his daughter, so he had to guard against it.
Qi Bao'er looked at him speechlessly, "Don't you also have two biological sons?"
Qi Kang'an slapped her in the butt angrily and said, "You two brothers are boys, so it's up to them to do whatever they want. If they didn't have that ability, my father wouldn't feel bad if he saw them begging for food."
Bao, your brother and the others already owe you a lot. As a boy, he has to rely on his sister when he grows up. That is a waste. What is he going to do as a waste son?
After helping their daughter upright, Qi Kang'an inquired from passers-by, the father and daughter went straight to the only pawn shop in the county.
Qi Kang'an didn't take out the golden ball. He thought it was too conspicuous. He was afraid of causing trouble, so it would be safer to go to a pawn shop to pawn some of the things from the Wu family.
After coming out of the pawn shop, Qi Bao'er had another thousand taels in her pocket, which she pawned for a white jade brick she pried from the bedside.
No matter who wins or loses, now is not the time to worry about that.
Then the father and daughter went straight to Buzhuang.
Along the way, Qi Bao'er paid attention to see if there was anyone following him. Fortunately, the shopkeeper of the bank was a rich man, so it was not uncommon to find people like them.
Don't reveal wealth in vain, this saying is true everywhere.
However, Qilin State has express regulations that no bank or pawnshop can be opened privately.
What does it mean? Banks and pawn shops can only be opened by the government or people designated by the government.
This will be much better for guests in terms of safety.
But we have to be careful. After all, in Yingzhou now, the word "rules" has no meaning.
I asked passers-by again, and when I got to the cloth shop, I took a look, my dear, it turns out that when the passers-by pointed out this street, they did not mean that there was a cloth shop on this street, but that all the people passing by on this street were cloth shops.
Qi Kangfu and three others were also on this street, loading bags of cotton onto their bullock cart in front of a store.
Qi Kangfu turned around and saw Qi Kang'an quickly waving his hands and shouting: "Brother, this."
Qi Kangan came over on horseback and said, "Have you bought cotton?"
"I bought it, and it's all at a real price. Brother, this store only has some cotton. We've asked about other stores, and all the refugees passing by have bought it."
She leaned closer to him and whispered softly: "The store owner said that the refugees passing by every day would buy some cotton, but the cotton they brought in was not enough to sell. They also stayed because someone in their family had died and went home to attend a funeral, so the store was closed.
With."
Otherwise, they still wouldn't be able to buy cotton today.
"how many?"
"There are only about 400 kilograms left. I want them all. One pound is 130 fen, which is a bit expensive." The price over there is usually 110 to 120 fen.
What are they sewing those old sacks for?
When I encounter reed bushes on the road, I go up to pick reed flowers. If there is really no cotton, reed flowers can also be used as a top. In their hometown, many people don’t have cotton-padded clothes to wear during the winter, so they always have reed flowers stuffed inside.
But that's not the case. It's said that it's cold over there at the Acropolis. Their hometown can't compare, and the reed flowers probably can't withstand it.
There were several younger brothers of cloth and cotton. Qi Kang'an told Qi Kangfu that after buying them, he would immediately go back to the city gate to meet up with old man Qi, and then turn around to buy other items.
My mother told me that when buying meat, I had to buy more in secret, and even the family members tried not to let anyone see how much they bought.
I passed by a roast duck shop and bought some.
If you see fruit, buy it.
There are candied haws on the street, buy them.
Preserved fruits, buy them.
Dried fruits, buy them.
Pastry shop, buy.
Passing by a silver village, Qi Kang'an slipped in with his daughter in his arms.
Either some men don't have much money in their pockets, or they are afraid that the government officials will arrest them if they stay too long, so I pray that Kang'an can take his daughter shopping until night.
Qi Kangan calculated that it took him about two hours to go to the city to buy things and back. When he returned to the city gate, some people in Qijia Village had not entered the city.
Yuanwai Ye and others who were in front of them have long since disappeared.
All the purchased grain has been delivered and is piled outside the tea shed. The villagers who have entered the city are counting, paying, weighing, and carrying it to their carts as usual.
When Mrs. Tian saw his carriage, she immediately ran over, lifted the corner of the carriage curtain, took a look, immediately put it down, and pushed the man aside.
"Why did you buy this?" There were two pork fans in the carriage.
Qi Kang'an glanced at his daughter who jumped out of the carriage, and Mrs. Chaoda said in her eyes, "Can I only buy this? As you said, don't leave too many good things outside.
Mom, I just passed by a silver village and saw a hairpin that especially suits you. It's at Bao'er's place."
Mrs. Tian gave it to him angrily, "It's already late, why should I buy a hairpin?"
Then he asked: "Where is your wife?"
Qi Kang'an was stunned, "What is my wife?"
Ouch, you are so heartless, "You bought it for your mother, but your wife didn't buy it?"
"Oh,,," Should he tell the truth or lie?
His stunned reaction, in the eyes of Mrs. Tian, meant that her eldest son did not forget to honor her during his escape, but instead neglected his own wife.
I feel that my eldest son should not do this, but I am also happy because she is more important to him than his daughter-in-law.
She kept a straight face but couldn't suppress the upturned eyebrows, "Don't do this next time. Whatever you buy for your mother, don't forget your wife. Sanni is a good child."
"...Ah, oh."
Qi Bao'er not far away: "..."
When her father bought a silver hairpin for each of Nai and her mother, she felt that her father was really rare and that her mother and daughter-in-law had not forgotten each other. He was a good man.
Now take another look...
No wonder the relationship between her mother and her mother is better than the other two aunts.
