If someone else heard this offer, they would probably agree immediately.But Shao Qingyi came here for 15 taels, and the 12 taels were not enough to move his heart.

So he calmly drank a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then said: "I don't know what the shopkeeper's name is?"

Zhang He was a little uncertain about Shao Qingyi's attitude, but he still replied: "My surname is Zhang, and the name is a single name."

"It turned out to be shopkeeper Zhang. My husband's family name is He, and he is a hunter." Shao Qingyi also reported her family name.

Shao Qingyi's unhurried appearance made Zhang He's heart sink. It seems that today's guest is not as talkative as he imagined.

"The furs my husband hunted in the past were sold to shopkeepers in the village for convenience." Shao Qingyi said, took another sip of tea, and continued, "A few days ago, he hunted this rare red fox fur. I thought to myself, if such a good fur is sold to a shop in the village, it will be dusty, or if you just go to the city and sell it to someone who really knows the goods, then it is worthy of this red fox fur, don’t you think?”

"Yes yes yes..." Zhang He agreed, his heart getting heavier and heavier.

"Our village is very far away from the county seat, so it's not easy for me to come to the city." Shao Qingyi said exaggeratedly, "When I came to the county seat, I went straight to Longxiang, because I heard that Longxiang Trading Company is a time-honored brand. The price is fair, there is no deceit, and good things can be sold at a worthy price here."

"Missing praises." Zhang He felt that he could no longer allow the other party to play freely, so he interrupted what Shao Qingyi was about to say, and took the initiative to say, "Mr. He Jiafu, this red fox fur looks really good, but Twelve taels is already the limit I can give, no matter how high it is, I can’t give it.”

Shao Qingyi smiled lightly when she heard the words: "Shopkeeper Zhang, look at what you said, of course I know that you gave 12 taels is a very good deal, but I only have one piece of red fox fur, and I treat it like my own child. I can't bear to suffer a little grievance!"

"Then what do you mean?" Zhang He didn't expect the husband from the countryside to be so difficult to deal with. Most people should have agreed to the deal directly after hearing what he said just now, right?Is there anything else he can rely on?

"So if you really can't offer a higher price here, then I will go to Beiwang Market to sell it. There will always be a few ladies and wives who are willing to buy it at a higher price? Even if there is no , the big deal is to be more troublesome. I come to the county to sell it once in a while, and I can always sell it at a higher price. Anyway, I am not in a hurry to spend money. This red fox fur will not break if it is hidden. You said yes No?" Shao Qingyi said with a smile.

As soon as Zhang He heard this, he knew that Shao Qingyi was determined and was unwilling to sell at the price of 12 taels.

If it's an ordinary cargo, Zhang He will send it off directly.

But such a good-looking red fox fur is indeed rare, and most importantly, this is a rare opportunity to please the owner!

Zhang He thought over and over again, but in the end he was still unwilling to give up this great opportunity given by God.He handed over the decision to Shao Qingyi: "Then, how much do you want to sell, Mr. He Jiafu?"

"20 taels." Shao Qingyi began to speak loudly. On the one hand, it was to give Zhang He room to bargain, and on the other hand, it was also to test Zhang He's attitude. "I think my red fox fur is worth this price. What do you think, shopkeeper Zhang?" ?”

Hearing the price, Zhang He's smile changed: "Mr. He Jiafu, if what you bring is white fox fur, 20 taels is not too much. If you call 20 taels for a piece of red fox fur, you Do you think I, Zhang, is easy to bully, or do you think Long Xiang is easy to bully?"

Shao Qingyi also laughed when she heard the words: "How dare I? Doing business is all about your affection and I will. Since the price is unacceptable to shopkeeper Zhang, then I can only leave first."

As he spoke, he simply put away the red fox fur and made a gesture to leave.

As soon as he turned around, Zhang He said, "Hey, wait!"

The corner of Shao Qingyi's mouth twitched a little, but it disappeared quickly. He pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What else is there for Shopkeeper Zhang?"

"Ms. He Jiafu, don't worry, the price is still negotiable!" Zhang He didn't expect Shao Qingyi to be so straightforward.

In the blink of an eye, he, who was unwilling to give up this good opportunity, subconsciously uttered a voice to persuade him to stay.

Just as soon as he made a sound, Zhang He regretted it. Isn't this abruptly handing over the initiative to the other party?

Shao Qingyi naturally knew this too.

He knew that a piece of red fox fur was not worth 20 taels of silver, and he quoted this price purely to test the shopkeeper's attitude.

Now it seems that the shopkeeper is bound to get this red fox fur. If so, the next thing will be easy.

Shopkeeper Zhang knew that he had lost control over the price, and Shao Qingyi also knew of Shopkeeper Zhang's urgency. After some negotiations, the two parties successfully settled the deal at a high price of 18 taels, which was three taels more than Shao Qingyi's original expectation of 15 taels.

Shao Qingyi, who got the money, looked at shopkeeper Zhang, who was in pain, and said in a good mood: "Shopkeeper Zhang, I will contact you as soon as possible when I have a good-looking fur in the future!"

Shopkeeper Zhang praised him again and again, but he thought in his heart, come on, if this business loses money every time, can my shopkeeper still do it?

After Shao Qingyi sold the red fox fur, the big stone in her heart finally fell.

In a good mood, he walked along Beiwang Street.

Beiwang Street is the busiest street in this county called Fucheng. All the stores with names in Fucheng are located near Beiwang Street. In addition, there is Beiwang Market. Even if it is not a festival, it is crowded with people. .

Longxiang Commercial Bank is a comprehensive store that sells jewelry as well as the Four Treasures of the Study, ordinary items as well as exotic treasures, but the overall prices are on the high side.

There are probably two or three comprehensive stores like Longxiang on Beiwang Street, all of which are similar to Longxiang.Other shops specialize in a certain kind of shop, for example, a cloth shop only sells cloth, and a jewelry shop only sells jewelry...

Generally speaking, the goods on Beiwang Street can be regarded as luxury goods, and most of the people who shop here are ladies and masters in silk and satin.

The closer you get to Beiwang Market, the more civilians these shops operate.

Rice shop, salt shop, mountain goods shop, sauce shop...

Looking at these goods, Shao Qingyi couldn't help but salivate.

This dried shiitake mushroom looks good... That store even sells seaweed!Is this hawthorn cake? It looks delicious. Do you want to buy some for the two children?

Shao Qingyi is like Grandma Liu who has entered the Grand View Garden, she finds everything novel and wants to buy everything she sees.

But his big basket hadn't been emptied yet, and even if he bought it, there was nowhere to put it, so he could only stare at it greedily.

Along the way just now, Shao Qingyi found that there are basically more raw materials sold here, and less direct sales of food.

Moreover, the shops that sell food seem to have only a few types of food. I don't know if other foods are not easy to sell, or there are only a few types of food here.

Seeing that the sun was approaching noon, Shao Qingyi picked a restaurant with a good business, and planned to have something to eat first.

As soon as the waiter at the door saw the visitor, he warmly greeted him.

Just when Shao Qingyi thought he was going to say "Guest officer, are you a top student or staying in a hotel", Xiao Er said, "Guest officer, please come inside!"

When Shao Qingyi thought about it, she was right, this is not an inn, but there is no service of "staying in an inn".

At this time, there were not many customers in the store, so Shao Qingyi chose a seat on the second floor facing the window facing the Beiwang Market, and asked, "Is there a menu?"

Xiao Er was taken aback for a moment, menu, what is that?

Seeing Xiao Er's confused face, Shao Qingyi knew that there must be no menu in this restaurant, so he changed the way of asking: "What kind of food do you have in your restaurant?"

As soon as the waiter in the shop heard it, he opened his mouth and said the name of the dish.

However, Shao Qingyi took a closer look, and it seemed that the ingredients of this restaurant were only chicken, duck, pork and common vegetables, and there were no unusual dishes.

"Just a few of your restaurant's signature dishes." Shao Qingyi didn't bother to choose, and directly gave the choice to the waiter.

Xiaoer likes this kind of guests the most, and immediately responded with a smile: "Okay!"

While Shao Qingyi was waiting for the dishes to be served, Shao Qingcheng and his group who were participating in the study tour were also preparing to have lunch.

All three students were depressed.

They were all potential students who were favored by their husband in Shuiwan Village, but in the morning competition, whether it was scriptures or poems, they all performed mediocrely.

Shao Qingcheng's mood was even worse.He regretted why he didn't listen to the advice of his classmates and threw away the package of oil paper that he didn't know what was in it.

During the whole morning's competition, he received a lot of attention for holding this big bag. From their eyes, Shao Qingcheng clearly felt contempt.

"It's really impolite to bring food with you when you participate in the study tour." Vaguely, he also heard someone say this.This made his face flushed red, and his performance in the morning was even worse.

In addition, dress has also become their inferiority complex.

Although they have all put on their most decent clothes, they are still not enough in the eyes of the students of these big academies.

Watching the other college students in their uniforms and flashy uniforms, they realize once again that here they are just country folk from remote villages.

It was the first time for these three students to come to the county seat, and it was also the first time they knew that there were people outside the people and people outside the sky.After seeing the gods fighting in the morning, they were not even interested in the lunch they were expecting.

Mr. He knew that these children had suffered a lot. He comforted him: "Most of them are descendants of aristocratic families. They have studied hard since they were young. It is normal that you can't compare with them. The main purpose of bringing you here this time is to Let you see the gap between yourself and others."

After a pause, he said again: "If you know the gap, you have to work harder to make up for it. Only in this way can you break through the barriers brought about by your family background, you know?"

"Understood, Master." The three nodded in unison. After being instructed by the Master, their mood improved a lot.

The lunch provided by Youxue is a bowl of rice, a stewed tofu dish, a fried eggplant dish and a bowl of chicken soup.

All the students and wives who participated in the study tour will eat here, so the queue is very long.Shao Qingcheng glanced at the lunch menu from a distance, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

He is a bit picky eater, unfortunately, the few dishes today are not to his liking.

He can still drink some of the chicken soup.

Do you have to rely on this bowl of chicken soup for dinner?Shao Qingcheng thought with some worry.
