Chapter 14 Linglong Pavilion

Chapter 14 Linglong Pavilion

On the second floor, shopkeeper Jin was introducing customers, when he saw the waiter from the first floor coming up in a hurry, his expression changed, he apologized to the customer, walked over and scolded in a low voice: "What's the matter? It doesn't matter what the occasion is.

"

When the shop assistant was scolded, he immediately woke up and felt unsure. He shouldn't bother the shopkeeper just because of a small benefit. He didn't know whether the shopkeeper was real or not. If he was fired by the shopkeeper, where would he find such a good job?

Mrs. Zhao was a little dissatisfied, but after all, she took the money and replied: "Shopkeeper, an old lady came downstairs. She looked like she belonged to a wealthy family. She said she wanted to negotiate a business deal with you. This villain can't make the decision.

, I just came here to find you."

"what business?"

"The woman didn't say anything. She just said that we would discuss it after meeting you." The waiter replied with a bitter look on his face.

"Let's go down and have a look."



Downstairs, Mrs. Zhao calmly took a sip of the tea brought by Xiao Si, almost spit it out, and said in her heart: "What the hell is this? Is it for people to drink? It's not as good as my Liangbaikai, I don't know."

How come this wealthy family likes to drink bitter things?"

Without showing any expression on his face, he put the tea on the coffee table, picked up a piece of pastry, took a bite, and fed one to Yun Xi. Such a big store only has three or four pastries on a plate, which is really hard to find, let alone

The pastries at Linglong Pavilion are more delicious than tea.

If the clerk in the store knew about Mrs. Zhao's complaints, he would probably say: "We are a jewelry store, not a pastry seller. If it weren't for Mrs. Zhao's decent clothes and discussing business with the shopkeeper, we wouldn't take snacks. Besides, this

The dim sum itself is for Yun Xi, after all, he is an extremely good-looking little baby, why don’t you think it’s too much to give it to you?”

It's a pity that the guy doesn't know anything.

"I wonder what kind of business the old lady wants to do with our store?" Shopkeeper Jin came downstairs and asked Mrs. Zhao with a kind face.

Mrs. Zhao stood up and said to the shopkeeper: "I wonder what I call the shopkeeper?"

"My surname is Jin, you can call me Shopkeeper Jin."

"My husband's surname is Zhao, you can call me whatever you want. My granddaughter and I are passing through your county and want to go to Beijing to join relatives. Because the journey is long and the money is not enough, I sell something from my home to your store. I wonder if your store will accept it?"

"

"Oh, I don't know what it is. Can you take a look?"

"Guard Yi, take out the things and show them to Shopkeeper Jin." Mrs. Zhao ordered to Yunyi.

"Yes." After saying that, Yun Yi took out a palm-sized box from his arms, stepped forward, opened it and showed it to Shopkeeper Jin.

I saw a pearl the size of a pigeon egg inside, which was round and round. This was the best of the best.

Shopkeeper Jin was excited and wanted to buy it right away, but his face was as steady as an old dog's. The change in his eyes the moment he saw the pearl did not escape Mrs. Zhao's notice at all.

I thought to myself: "You are still pretending to be like me. When I was young, I met a variety of people ranging from a thousand to eight hundred. I have long developed a sharp eye. You are just a kid."

Shopkeeper Jin stretched out his hand to take it, but with a snap, Yun Yi closed the box and put it back into his arms, then stood back behind Mrs. Zhao, acting like an obedient tool.

"I wonder if I can return it to the shopkeeper's eyes?"

"You can come in, you can come in. You see, this is not a place for talking. Let's talk in the private room upstairs?" Shopkeeper Jin immediately changed his attitude and replied.

"Okay, a shop as big as Linglong Pavilion won't bully me, an old woman who has left her hometown." After that, he followed shopkeeper Jin upstairs.

Mrs. Zhao said this deliberately. There were other buyers in the lobby. Shopkeeper Jin looked over curiously when he came downstairs. The first thing he said was to reassure shopkeeper Jin that we are here to sell things. I believe Mr. Jin

The shopkeeper will give you a suitable price.

Secondly, it is also to frighten shopkeeper Jin. If the other party wants to take advantage of his own things, so many people downstairs will see it. It will damage the image of the store. After all, stores like this are all about face and will not do it for temporary gain.

profit to ruin the reputation of the store.

In the private room on the second floor, the things were reopened and placed in front of shopkeeper Jin. Shopkeeper Jin took it in his hand and looked at it carefully. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was the best. Such a big pearl was either worn by a noble in the harem, or it was a tribute paid by envoys from other countries.

If such a piece is delivered to the owner of the capital, he will definitely be entrusted with important tasks.

"How much do you want to bid?"

Mrs. Zhao pondered for a while and replied: "Shopkeeper Jin is an honest person. You make an offer. If it is suitable, I will sell it. If it is not suitable, we can discuss it later. What do you think?"

"Three thousand taels, what do you think?"

"Five thousand taels. If it works, I'll sell it to you. If it doesn't work, our master and servant will go to the capital to sell it. The price will definitely be higher than now, at least six thousand taels. If you meet someone you like, it's possible to have tens of thousands."

When Mrs. Zhao heard the price of three thousand taels, she was actually very excited. Her hands hidden in her sleeves trembled slightly, but she still pretended to be calm and bid. Otherwise, how could an old lady who has seen the world not understand the value of a pearl of such a size?

.

When Shopkeeper Jin heard the price, he felt a pang of pain in his heart. His face showed nothing, and he was silent for a moment. But after thinking about it, he became happy again. In the end, he made a profit from the price.

He immediately said cheerfully: "Deal."

He asked Xiao Si to get the banknotes, which he thoughtfully divided into four one thousand taels, one five hundred taels, three one hundred taels and two hundred taels of silver.

Mrs. Zhao waved her hand and bought a lot of jewelry directly on the second floor, saying they were gifts for relatives in the capital.

Shopkeeper Jin was very happy again, and finally gave Mrs. Zhao a not particularly heavy silver bracelet as a compliment.

Mrs. Zhao, who originally spent more than 100 taels of silver to buy jewelry, but still felt pain in her body, felt much better immediately. If her old man hadn't told her, Mrs. Zhao would not have spent this money and left directly.

Finally, Shopkeeper Jin personally escorted Mrs. Zhao to the carriage, which headed towards the east gate. After walking out of the main street, it circled around the city and then gave the coachman some money.

After observing the surroundings and making sure that no one was following them, the three of them secretly entered a clothing store, bought a new set of clothes that were not too conspicuous, and returned to the North City Gate, where the bullock carts were parked nearby. Without saying anything, they hurried

We got on the ox cart and walked towards the town, forgetting to even visit Yunbei.

After leaving Linglong Pavilion, Yunxi used his mental power to observe whether there was anyone following him. He found that shopkeeper Jin was a good person and did not send anyone to follow him.

On the contrary, there were two scumbags following. It is estimated that someone noticed Ah Nai when she was selling things and ordered them to follow them. Yunxi had an idea and took out a grass seed that could be seen everywhere from the space, input some superpowers into it, and threw it in.

on the ground.

When the two fools followed, he activated the superpower in the grass seeds and tripped them to the ground while they were not paying attention.

The two losers who fell down lay on the ground in so much pain that they couldn't get up. By the time they came to their senses, it was already too late.

At this time, Yunxi and the others were already out of sight of the two of them, and they were completely out of sight of them. After having done all this, Yunxi had hidden his merit and fame.

The screen turned around. At this time, Yun Xi was shocked and numb by his grandma's sexy tricks. He never expected that the pearls he fished out of the space river were so valuable. The other things he put in the jar were not at all.

Although Yun Xi was still very happy after using it, she even looked at her grandma with admiration.

On the way back from the county seat, it’s already time (around three in the afternoon)

Yun Yi was also confused. He didn't expect his mother to be so bold and awesome. When he entered Linglong Pavilion, Yun Yi felt guilty. If his mother hadn't told him in advance not to say anything or show any expressions,

I did whatever I asked. I guess the secret has already been exposed. I thought about it and looked at my mother with admiration. My mother deceived shopkeeper Jin and finally I believed it.

The two fathers and daughters had the same expression, both looking at Mrs. Zhao with adoring eyes, which made Mrs. Zhao feel uncomfortable, but they also enjoyed it very much.

The ox-cart ride took about half an hour without talking and arrived at Jixiang Town.
