Chapter 208 Selling Beads
The food stall's business was very good, and everything was sold out just after midnight.
The market opened the next day, and Mother Lin didn't plan to take her two daughters-in-law out to set up a stall.
It can be regarded as a good rest for the family.
After Shen Zhiyu returned home, he took out his small purse and poured out all the copper plates and silver coins inside.
There are more than two or two bits and pieces.
Nanzhi was speechless.
Her son's pocket money is more than hers.
"Can you lend me two taels of silver to my mother-in-law?"
"They all belong to grandma."
The little guy shook his head, not ready to let Nanzhi return it to him.
"That won't work. If you borrow something, you must pay it back." Nanzhi rubbed her son's head, feeling a little disappointed.
Seven taels of silver.
There are still twenty-three taels left.
Will Shen Wenchen's money still have to be used in the end?
After packing her things, Nanzhi took two more pearls and prepared to go out. She wanted to see how much silver these two pearls could be used for.
When Mother Lin saw that her daughter was about to go out again, she looked at the four children who were reading a drawing book with some confusion.
"Aniang goes out to make money."
Shen Zhiyu explained to her grandmother thoughtfully.
"make money?"
Mother Lin was dumbfounded, what kind of money could she make now?
What is my daughter going to do?
While waiting for Mother Lin to chase her to the door, she saw Father Lin coming back.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw his wife hurried over, and Father Lin had a smile on his face.
"How did you know I was back?"
"Where's my daughter? Did you see her just now?"
"Fat Ya? We just met at the entrance of the alley. She called 12% and said she was going to help, but she didn't say what she was going to do."
Father Lin scratched his head and lifted the oil paper bag in his hand.
"I bought some pastries and went inside to eat them. There are 120% of them. What can happen to Fatty?"
Perhaps she was relieved by her wife, so Mrs. Lin nodded and followed back to the main room.
"Ten taels of silver each. We'll take whatever you have."
Nanzhi looked at his eldest brother, then at his second brother.
The three men were silent in unison.
"Thank you, shopkeeper. Let's think about it again."
"Think about it again. If you think it's missing, eleven taels! No, no, no, twelve taels!"
Lin Yicheng took the pearl with a smile and led Nanzhi and Lin Ercheng out of the pawn shop.
"Here, take it."
Lin Yicheng's voice was trembling as he handed the pearl to Nanzhi.
"Eh, eh..."
Nanzhi swallowed with some difficulty.
This pearl is estimated to be worth more than twelve taels of silver, so isn't it going to make me rich?
Lin Yicheng and Lin Ercheng looked at each other in silence.
The pearl that Fatty took out today is about the same size as the ones they sold before.
But I only sold it for two taels of silver in the town. To put it bluntly, it was a loss of ten taels!
"Fat Ya, I, we..."
"Big brother and second brother, let's go to the Silver Building."
Nanzhi's voice was filled with excitement as she called her two brothers to go to the Silver Building.
Since these pearls are worth twelve taels in a pawn shop, they can naturally be sold for more when they go to the silver shop.
When the three of them arrived outside the Silver Building, they met Su Tao who was about to enter.
Seeing the woman's two brothers following the fake, Su Tao had a bit of disgust in her eyes.
A woman who is willing to be a substitute and two men who dote on her.
Really disgusting.
Only glancing at the three of them, Su Tao led Shuang'er into the Silver Building without looking at them again.
Nanzhi looked confused, what happened to the heroine?
Why are you staring at yourself for no reason?
You didn't provoke her to mess with her, did you?
Lin Yicheng curled his lips.
Don't think that if Su Tao is doing well in Yancheng, they will forget about her blackmail.
Lin Ercheng had a dull look on his face and said nothing.
The three of them entered the silver building, and first a little girl came to greet them.
"What do you want to buy, girl? We have the most fashionable Liuye hairpin right now."
The little girl was pretty and had a real smile on her face when she greeted Nanzhi.
"I want to sell something."
After Nanzhi finished speaking, the little girl was stunned for a moment, and then she said: "This, I can't decide this."
The goods in the silver house are delivered by dedicated people. Unless it is something special, the shopkeeper generally will not buy things from individuals.
Nanzhi knew that she couldn't control this, so she thought of her two pearls and continued talking.
"My things are all clean. Can you help me find your manager?"
After listening to her words, the little girl looked at the two big men following Nanzhi, and then nodded.
"Then you guys sit down for a while and I'll go find the steward."
"Okay, thank you."
Seeing the little girl leave, Nanzhi breathed a sigh of relief.
She had forgotten that the shops in Yancheng City did not accept items sold by private individuals.
Because sometimes a servant of a certain family sells the owner's things privately. In order to avoid such trouble, most of them will not accept it.
The shopkeeper, who was having tea with Su Tao, frowned slightly when he saw the little girl coming up.
"Shopkeeper, there is a girl downstairs who wants to sell something."
The little girl said in the shopkeeper's ear.
The shopkeeper of Yinlou was a thirty-year-old beautiful woman. After hearing her words, she glanced sideways at Su Tao, then smiled and said a few words to her and followed her downstairs.
"Didn't I tell you that you won't accept goods sold by private individuals? Have you forgotten what happened before?"
The beautiful woman frowned and looked at the little girl, with some displeasure in her eyes.
Last year, a little girl came to the silver building to sell jewelry, and she bought a good jade bracelet. At that time, she also saw that the little girl didn't look like a domestic servant, so she bought the bracelet.
It turned out later that the little girl was snatched back by the young master of the Huang family in the west of the city. After injuring the young master of the Huang family, he stole a pair of jade bracelets, sold them and ran away.
In the end, she led someone to send two hundred taels of silver to the Huang family to apologize, and the matter was settled.
The little girl lowered her head when asked, and the beautiful woman sighed and said, "Everyone is down. Please lead me to see where they are."
"Eh."
The little girl brought the beautiful woman to Nanzhi, looked at the clothes of the three of them, and then said softly: "I wonder what the girl wants to sell?"
Hearing the sound, Nanzhi quickly raised his head.
Seeing the beautiful woman in front of him, he was stunned for a while, and then he quickly took out the handkerchief wrapped in pearls from his arms.
"Are you in charge? I want to sell these two pearls."
After hearing that there were only two pearls, the beautiful woman was a little disappointed.
She had no shortage of pearls and silver, and she thought she could have something else.
But when she saw the two pearls, she was obviously stunned for a moment.
The eyes looking at the two pearls were undisguisedly satisfied.
She has quite a few fresh water beads in her silver shop, and she also has two sets of sea pearl jewelry, but these two beads are the best in terms of shape and luster.
Even freshwater pearls are worth some silver.
"Where did your two beads come from?"
"It was grown from river clams in the early years."
"Did you drive it yourself?"
The beautiful woman was a little confused. Such a good pearl was more like something only a lady could have.
"These are the only two that were opened accidentally."
Nanzhi pursed her lips, guessing that the shopkeeper didn't believe it.
