"Hiss..." Qin Zheng took a deep breath when he heard the price.
One million eight hundred and eighty thousand, selling him is not even worth this amount, I couldn’t help but feel a little discouraged for a moment. One million eight hundred and eighty thousand, not one hundred and eighty eight dollars, most people in society now have to work hard all their lives to earn
You can't make that much money.
So Qin Zheng turned his head and said to the delicate woman: "Can that piece of jade just now be cheaper?"
The pretty woman shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, sir, the prices in our store are fixed prices, no negotiation."
At this time, a tall female clerk next to her said with disdain: "The jade in our store is all high-quality, not sold on the street. Sir, do you want to buy it or not?" She obviously thought that Qin Zheng couldn't afford it.
thing, and Qin Zheng made her impatient by asking questions.
Qin Zheng smiled and didn't take it seriously. He ignored the female clerk's rude remarks and said to the pretty woman next to him: "Forget it, I'll go look elsewhere. I'm sorry to trouble you."
"Sir, you're welcome. This is my duty, as it should be." The pretty woman said with a smile. Although she was a little unhappy with what her colleague said, she didn't show it. She was only a newcomer who had just entered the store.
Unable to change anything.
Qin Zheng turned around and walked towards the door. At this time, the female clerk who had mocked Qin Zheng before saw that Qin Zheng ignored her words, as if she had been insulted, and felt angry. A country bumpkin with no money could not buy anything.
He even came in to top up his stuff, and after looking around for a long time without buying anything, he sarcastically said: "Not everyone can afford the things we have here. If you want to find something missing, you can try your luck at Baiyun Road. You might be able to find it there."
You want to buy something."
Qin Zheng ignored her words and walked out of the door. He had never encountered such a person before and thought there was no need to say anything to her. Ignorance was the best counterattack.
When the pretty woman who had been accompanying Qin Zheng saw Qin Zheng leaving, she came to the female clerks, thought for a moment and said, "Sister Ping, I'm afraid it's not good for you to treat your customers like this?"
The woman called Sister Ping sneered, and said with a disdainful smile: "Xiao Qin, guests are also divided into three, six, and nine grades. The person just now knew at a glance that he couldn't afford to buy anything. If he is allowed to do this,
Wandering around in the store asking this and that is a waste of our time, not to mention the impact on us when other customers come to see us. That guy is just a fool, and our store's reputation in Yuncheng is not good.
It’s not small, how can ordinary people dare to come in if they don’t have some savings?”
Xiao Qin shook his head and fell silent, not agreeing very much with what Sister Ping said. Sister Ping seemed to be thinking about the store, but she is a customer who comes to the door, and no matter who she is, she must treat her warmly. This is when she enters the store.
The boss also said the same thing about the basic common sense of training. It’s just that she spoke softly and was unable to change anything.
Qin Zheng left the commercial street, thinking that the system energy had been used up and could not be replenished today, so he had to go back.
Qin Zheng remembered what he had just experienced, and shook his head with a wry smile. This society is so realistic. It is not uncommon to judge people based on their appearance, dislike the poor and love the rich. However, the last words said by the female clerk aroused his curiosity.
There is a market on Baiyun Road. Although it is said to be an antique market, in fact, the products sold everywhere are imitations of handicrafts. There are also a few antique shops inside, but most of them sell dog meat under false pretenses. 99% of them are fakes.
, this matter is basically a household name in Yuncheng. The market on Baiyun Road is full of street stalls, selling almost everything. Qin Zheng also bought his clothes there.
Baiyun Road and the commercial street Qin Zheng visited today are two extremes, but both places have a lot of traffic, but one is not classy and the other is classy.
Picking up leaks comes from antique trading, which means finding treasures worth tens of thousands of gold at extremely low prices. Qin Zheng thought he didn't have that kind of vision and luck before, but the female clerk's words undoubtedly reminded him that Qin Zheng now has
With the "Detection" skill, it is not impossible to pick up the missing items, but it depends on luck.
The current antique market is not like the 1990s, where you can collect ancient books, paintings, etc. from junk collectors. Nowadays, people basically know that old objects are very valuable, and no one will sell them cheaply.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Zheng returned to Lu Datong's house.
Lu Datong was already preparing meals at home. When Qin Zheng saw it, he hurried to the kitchen to help Lu Datong. After a while, a sumptuous meal was ready, and at this time, Lu Yan and Qin Yu also came back.
After dinner, Lu Yan scrambled to wash the dishes, Lu Datong and Qin Zheng sat in the living room and watched TV, while Qin Yu went back to the room to do homework.
Lu Datong said to Qin Zheng: "Xiao Zheng, your injury is not healed yet. Why were you out for so long in the afternoon?"
Qin Zheng didn't tell Lu Datong and his daughter what happened to him, and he didn't dare to let them see his wounds. Otherwise, as soon as he took off his clothes and saw that there were no wounds on his body, he wouldn't be frightened? There were so many things on Qin Zheng's body in the past two days
There were also bruises and many scratches.
"Uncle Lu, I'm fine. My injury is almost healed. I was feeling restless at home, so I went out for a walk."
"By the way, you haven't changed the dressing yet, have you? Come on, I'll change the dressing for you." Lu Datong stood up as he spoke.
When Qin Zheng heard what Lu Datong said, he quickly waved his hand and said, "It's changed. I'll go out to the hospital this afternoon to find someone to help change it."
Qin Zheng had to tell a little lie. If he asked Lu Datong to change his dressing, he didn't know how to explain it.
"Is that so?" Lu Datong didn't become suspicious after hearing Qin Zheng's words. He sat down and said, "I'll let you stay in the hospital for two more days and you won't listen. Otherwise, it won't be so troublesome."
"It's okay. I have nothing to do anyway. Do you think I'm okay?" Qin Zheng said with a smile.
"Alas! This is all my fault. It was uncle who caused you trouble." Lu Datong sighed and said guiltily.
"Uncle Lu, please don't say that. You usually treat us brothers and sisters as a family, but if you do this again, you will be alienated. I also treat Sister Yan as my sister. Can I ignore her being bullied?"
Qin Zheng knew that Lu Datong felt guilty for him, but Qin Zheng felt that this was what he should do. What he just said was not to comfort Lu Datong, but he really treated the two of them as relatives.
In order to stop Lu Datong from thinking about this problem, Qin Zheng changed the subject and asked Lu Datong: "Uncle Lu, how is the store now and when will it resume business?"
Lu Datong frowned and said: "In two days, there has been no news from the police in the past two days. I have inquired about those people that day. I heard that the four people who attacked you are gangsters nearby, but now it seems that they have joined something.
The Heyi Gang will take people to several nearby stores this afternoon to collect protection money."
"Yihe Gang? Triad?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Maybe... Well, although the business was okay in the past, it was hard money earned. Although we didn't dare to offend the gangsters nearby, they always had to be wary of eating in the store and were afraid of the police. But now
I came here blatantly to collect protection fees. I heard Lao Li next to me saying that I would have to pay 20,000 yuan a month. How can I do this business in the future?"
"Twenty thousand yuan? Why didn't they go and rob them? Didn't anyone call the police?" Qin Zheng was secretly surprised. A store costs 20,000 yuan. There are at least 30 or 40 shops on this street. They can collect money in this month.
Seven or eight hundred thousand is really faster than robbing.
Lu Datong said with a hint of fear: "It's useless to call the police! They are not afraid when the police come. After all, they are not making trouble. There is nothing they can do when the police come. As soon as the police leave, they bring a group of people to the store.
All the customers were scared away. I heard from Lao Li that they beat up the owner of a store yesterday, very cruelly, and that owner is still in the intensive care unit of the hospital."
Calculated in this way, the injuries he and Qin Zheng suffered that day were relatively minor. Of course, he didn't know that Qin Zheng was indeed seriously injured at that time. If it hadn't been for the integration of the system, he might still be lying on the hospital bed now.
But Qin Zheng at this time is not the Qin Zheng of before. Now he has a strengthened body and system, and he is not afraid of Lao Fei and others.
At this time, Lu Yan came out of the kitchen. When she heard Lu Datong's words, she frowned and said, "Dad, will our store always be closed like this?"
Lu Datong said: "There is no better way now, and I have nothing to do with it in Yuncheng. Let's see if it opens tomorrow. If it's really what Lao Li said, just give them the money."
Lu Yan complained a little: "Dad, then we are not doing a loss-making business? You can't make 20,000 yuan a month."
Lu Datong smiled bitterly and said: "There is no way, we are not the father and daughter in the store now, and other people in the store also need a place to stay temporarily. This month I am thinking of transferring the store first and opening a store elsewhere. Let's make trouble
If you can’t afford it, can’t you still afford to hide?”
Lu Yan said: "Dad, it's too difficult to find a store in a good location like ours now, and the rent is too expensive."
It seems that there is really no other good solution except this. Lu Yan is just complaining, but in fact, she still agrees with Lu Datong in her heart.
Because Lu Datong's food stall is his own shop, there is no pressure on rent. The food is delicious and the price is not high. It can be said to be a high-quality and low-priced place, so the business has always been very good. But because of this, after excluding wages, water and electricity for a month, it is
You can earn more than 10,000 yuan. Those gangsters come over and ask for 20,000 yuan. If this continues for a few months, this business will no longer be viable. Although Lu Datong is a businessman, he is kind-hearted. As prices increase, he would rather
Even though the profits have been reduced, the portion size of the dishes has not been reduced, and the prices have only been slightly raised. Compared with other restaurants, the profit is much less.
Qin Zheng said nothing. He wanted to help, but he didn't know how to open his mouth.
Although Qin Zheng has the assistance of the assassin system and his body has been strengthened, he is just a student. With his current strength, he still has confidence in dealing with a few gangsters, but facing the underworld, Qin Zheng does not have the confidence to do so.
Lu Datong and his daughter were implicated.
Lu Datong said to Lu Yan: "This is the only thing we can do now. We will notify Xiao Zhang and them to open tomorrow."
The Xiao Zhang that Lu Datong was talking about was another waiter in Lu Datong's store.
Lu Datong thought for a while and then said to Qin Zheng: "Xiao Zheng, don't go to the store with Yan Yan tomorrow. I'm afraid those four people will come over then. You injured one of them that day, so hide first."
Just hide."
How could Qin Zheng not go? What if those people make things difficult for Lu Datong again? Besides, now that Lu Datong has decided to change stores, Qin Zheng has a lot less worries. Lao Fei and others beat him so badly, not even
How can I get it back from them with interest?
Qin Zheng is a person who holds grudges, and he also wants to try to see how far his body has been strengthened by the system.
Thinking of this, Qin Zheng thought about the mission again. If he can find items with an energy reserve of more than 100 tomorrow, he can be promoted to level 2. Then he will be more confident, so Qin Zheng said to Lu Datong:
"It's okay, Uncle Lu. I'll help you in the kitchen tomorrow. If I don't go out, they won't come in. Everything will be fine."
Lu Datong thought for a while and agreed. After that, the three of them chatted for a while, and Qin Zheng simply washed up and went back to the room.
Qin Zheng went out for a walk today and was a little tired. He lay on the bed, listened to the muttering from outside the door from time to time, and gradually fell asleep.
