The boy touched these jewelry, glanced at Yongan again, and then said: "Wait, I have to show it to my master."
After all, Yong'an was only thirteen years old. Although he felt something was wrong, he didn't say anything. After a while, the guy came out again.
The clerk threw the jewelry in his hand on the ground outside the high cabinet with a roar, and cursed harshly at Yong'an: "What kind of stuff are these? Our master said they are all fakes, and they cost half a penny."
It’s not worth it. Get out now or you’ll get beaten!”
Yongan was stunned and thought it was impossible, these are all belonging to the Tian family...
When he looked at the ground, he immediately became angry and said, "You're talking nonsense! These are clearly not the things I just showed you! Give me back my things!"
The clerk smiled arrogantly, looked Yongan up and down, and spat: "Bah, you said these are not your things, do you have any evidence? If you have the ability, let's report it to the official and let's talk it over in court?"
It turned out that this guy took the three pieces of jewelry and went back to the inner room to ask his master. The master was also an old man. When he saw these jewelry, he felt that they were not ordinary things.
After further inquiries about the person who came to sell this thing, it was said that it was just a girl, so he laughed and asked his assistant to find two random things and took them out to deal with, and then he took away the three pieces of jewelry.
The master was very calculating. He felt that a family with such jewelry would never pawn it. Even if it was pawned, why not go to Tian's pawnshop to pawn it?
What's more, she's just a little girl outside. She's probably a maid from a wealthy family who stole her master's things and sold them privately.
Having figured this out, the master felt confident. At worst, the little girl would not dare to make a fuss in court.
Yong'an was furious, but he really didn't dare to go to court.
Now that he had just escaped from the Tian family, he was suddenly dragged into the court. Wasn't he waiting to be arrested by the powerful Tian family?
Fortunately, he didn't take out all the things he brought with him. His face turned red and he pointed at the smug waiter for a long time. Finally, he said: "Wait for me!" and turned away.
This pawn shop.
The waiter was heartbroken, rolled his eyes, quickly called two or three people, and whispered a few words in their ears.
These few are the gangsters kept in this pawn shop. Pawn shops are a place of right and wrong. They always have to have a good relationship with both the underworld and the white people before they dare to open their doors.
After hearing this guy's words, the gangsters showed lewd smiles on their faces, then they shrank their necks, rubbed their hands, and secretly followed Yong'an.
Yongan walked out of the pawn shop, his head swollen with anger.
He looked up at the sky and saw that it was getting late. He still had some jewelry on him, but he didn't have a penny...
Ah, I'm so hungry...
Yongan sighed sadly, and then walked out along the alley.
It’s not like I’ve never been a beggar. The worst thing is, I’ll just go back and be a blind man again!
The sky was getting darker and darker, and Yong'an finally ran out of options and found a dilapidated Tuigong Temple near the gate of the capital to rest.
He had been raised with fine clothes and good food for three years, but now he found that he could no longer endure the hardships. He sat cross-legged behind the dilapidated statue of the Earth God, tilting his head and supporting his chin, thinking about what to do.
