Chapter 5: jade pendant for sale
Chapter 5 Selling Jade Pendants
Lao Lizheng quickly wrote out the paperwork in triplicate. Ye Jinkui and Liu Feng respectively pressed their fingerprints on the paperwork on behalf of the two families, and Lao Lizheng also left his name on the paperwork.
He gave Ye Jinkui and Liu Feng a copy of the paper. Ye Jinkui collected the paper, thanked Lao Li, and then went back to the cave with his wife and children.
"Father, mother, should this jade pendant be exchanged for silver?"
Li Shi and Ye Jinkui: .
Li Shi: "No, this jade pendant was prepared by mother for your future husband-in-law."
Ye Anlan: "But I think it is unlucky. I don't want to use it as a confidant anymore."
Li Shi and Ye Jinkui: .
The two looked at each other, and after a while, Mrs. Li tentatively asked: "Then, then the stepmother will buy you a better one?"
"Yes." Ye Anlan smiled and nodded, "Then I'll exchange this piece for silver."
Li Shi: "But this is what your mother left you."
"Isn't that part of my neck also left to me by my mother? That's enough for me."
Mrs. Li struggled for a while and finally told the truth, "But this piece was given to your mother by your father before."
Although the quality of the jade was a bit poor, it was the first thing Ye Anlan's father gave her mother, and Li thought it was very commemorative.
However, Ye Anlan immediately looked disgusted after hearing Li Shi's words, "So it was given by that scum, no wonder it's so unlucky!"
Li Shi and Ye Jinkui:? ? ?
Ye Anlan didn't even have the intention to bring the jade pendant over to play with, she said to Ye Jinkui: "Father, this unlucky thing can't stay in our house. Go to the county tomorrow and sell it to the silver house Or a **** shop."
Li Shi and Ye Jinkui: Is this really the little lady they grew up watching?
Ye Anlan thought they were unwilling.
"Father, mother, that man had no good intentions when he married my mother. Aren't you afraid of bad luck if you keep what he gave?"
"Besides, he is my mother-killing enemy, a dead thing left by my mother-killing enemy, can it be more important than you?"
"I know very well how you have treated me these years. Rather than keeping a broken jade pendant thrown to my mother by that man, I want to see my brothers and sisters fed and clothed, and our family living in a warm In the big sturdy house."
Ye Jinkui and Li's eyes were reddened by what she said, Ye Jinkui gritted his teeth, "Then I will go to the county town to sell jade pendants tomorrow."
"I'll be with you." Ye Anlan said in her heart, if you were only allowed to go there, you wouldn't be able to buy much back.
Ye Jinkui hesitated for a moment, "Success, it just so happens that Dad also wants the old doctor from Jishitang in the county seat to give you a pulse."
***
After paying the entrance fee of two copper coins per person, Ye Jinkui took Ye Anlan straight to the time-honored medical clinic named Jishitang in the county seat.
There were a lot of patients in the hospital. In order not to delay the journey, Ye Jinkui took Ye Anlan to the hospital and entrusted him to the care of the little medicine boy. Then he drove the borrowed donkey cart to sell the pheasants, hares and half-sized wild boars he hunted yesterday.
After he left, Ye Anlan queued for about two quarters of an hour, and all the patients in front of her finally finished their treatment.
"Have you had a cold before?" The gray-bearded old doctor asked Ye Anlan as he checked his pulse and stroked his beard.
Ye Anlan nodded.
The old doctor picked up the brush and wrote her a prescription for recuperation, "The body has almost recovered. If you are worried, you can also grab two pairs of soups and medicines to nourish the body."
When he said that, Ye Anlan immediately decided not to take the medicine.
She still likes to nourish her body, the dark bitter medicine soup, and she can earn money if she can drink a bowl less.
"By the way, old man, do you collect medicinal materials here?" Ye Anlan picked up the small basket placed at her feet, "I went up the mountain to dig this yesterday."
The old doctor reached in and flipped through the herbs gently, "Do you understand medical principles?"
Ye Anlan said modestly: "I understand a little." The main reason is that if she knows too much, she can't explain it to Ye Jinkui and Li Shi.
"The medicinal materials are all good." The old doctor beckoned to his little apprentice, and asked him to classify the medicinal materials and make preliminary preparations, while he took the abacus and rattled it for a while, "I'll give you one hundred and twenty coins, will it work? "
It is a price of conscience, Ye Anlan nodded, "Thank you."
After a pause, she said again: "Old man, do you know which silver house in the county is more kind to do shopping? I want to sell something."
The old doctor thought for a while, "The owner of the Fang family's silver building is a real person."
Ye Anlan thanked the old doctor, got up and followed the little drug boy to settle the consultation fee.
After waiting in the medical hall for almost an hour, Ye Anlan finally brought Ye Jinkui back.
The father and daughter thanked the little drug boy, and then went to Fang's silver house together.
Fangjia Silver Building is only about a quarter of an hour away from the medical hall, and it is the smallest silver building in the county.
This silver house is mainly engaged in the business of ordinary wealthy households. The jewelry and accessories it sells are all ordinary styles. Although they are not outstanding, they will never go wrong.
In addition to jewelry and accessories of the same style, weight, and quality, Fangjiayinlou has always been the cheapest, so there are really many people in the county who like to go to his house to buy jewelry and accessories.
The owner and shopkeeper of Fangjiayinlou is indeed a solid businessman as the old doctor said.
After Ye Jinkui told him what he wanted, he estimated the price of the jade pendant that Ye Jinkui took out, "To be honest, if you only consider the quality and carving work of your jade pendant, it shouldn't be a problem to sell it for one hundred taels. But my family is a small business, and I can't afford that much money to buy your jade pendant."
Of course, even if there is, the landlord’s family doesn’t intend to spend so much money for a piece of jade pendant. His Fang family is in the business of ordinary people, who among ordinary people is willing to spend more than one hundred taels for a piece of jade pendant?
"Eighty taels." Ye Jinkui was still debating whether to change to another bank, but Ye Anlan had already taken the initiative to lower the price of the jade pendant, "The eighty taels of jade pendant will belong to you."
Ye Jinkui felt his heart was bleeding, he looked at Ye Anlan, "Yuanniang?"
Ye Anlan glanced at him, "Father, I'll explain to you later."
Ye Jinkui stopped talking immediately.
Ye Anlan tapped the counter with her index finger, "How do you like the landlord?"
The landlord's family weighed a bit, "deal."
The corners of Ye Anlan's lips curled up slightly, "Please exchange the twenty taels for us with half of copper plates and half of broken silver."
"Yuanniang, what do you want to buy with so many copper plates and broken silver?" After coming out of the silver building, Ye Jinkui asked Ye Anlan in a low voice while driving the car.
"Yes." Ye Anlan counted them to Ye Jinkui, counting them with her fingers, "I want to buy some cloth, cotton, grain, ironware, and seasonings like salt, sugar, vinegar, soy sauce. If there are suitable Books, I also want to buy a few back."
"Then you took the initiative to reduce the price of the jade pendant before"
