Refuse to be a loyal dog [Quick Transmigration]

The old master of the calligraphy and painting shop was helping Tang Tang frame the calligraphy and painting. While observing the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall in the bookstore, Tang Tang secretly compared them with the words he wrote. With a certainty in his mind, he pointed to one of them and asked: "Old man, how much does this sell for?"

The old master looked up and said with a smile: "Young master has good eyesight, and he immediately fell in love with Mr. Liang's handwriting. It seems that the young master is destined for it, so the old man gave him the lowest price, ten taels of silver. You see, young master. how."

When Tang Tang heard this, he was secretly happy.He thinks that his handwriting is powerful, with spirit in his handwriting, full of dragons and phoenixes, both picturesque and poetic.Five calligraphy and paintings, at least 40 taels, enough for him to enter Beijing.

As long as you come to Beijing, are you afraid of running out of money in the future!When he turns around, see how those who underestimated him will cry and regret.

Thinking of what he was happy about, Tang Tang asked the old gentleman expectantly: "Sorry, I'm just asking out of curiosity, and I don't need it. There is one more thing I want to ask you for advice. I don't know how much my calligraphy and painting can sell?"

The old man realized that he didn't want to buy it, so he lost his enthusiasm, but he was not unhappy. He just paused for a while and thought about it before continuing, saying, "Master, I have to sell it elsewhere. I don't know if I can sell it." How much. But with this old man, five pieces can be sold for one tael of silver."

When Tang Tang heard this, he immediately lowered his face.In order to make these five calligraphy and paintings, he chose the best ones he could afford right now, just brushes and inks.It is not a big loss to spend three taels of silver on hand, but can only sell one tael.Although the ink and brush can still be used, to Tang Tang, unintentionally is a mockery of his lack of self-knowledge.

Holding his calligraphy and painting with a cold face and leaving the bookstore, Tang Tang was unwilling to give up like this, and went to several other calligraphy and painting shops to inquire.They were all answered with a few hundred copper coins, but no one offered more than one or two taels. Tang Tang was so angry that he almost threw the calligraphy and painting into the river to relieve his anger.

Thinking of his asking why the price is so low, those people told him: "Young master is young and has no reputation. Even if we accept it, we can only hold it down, and no one cares. Or sell it at this price, maybe it will still be worth it." Someone wants it. If you want to sell it at a high price, you can only wait for the son to become famous in the future."

What they didn't say was: son, do you know when you became famous?You don't even know, how dare we charge a high price.

Underappreciated!Tang Tang could only comfort himself in this way.

Selling calligraphy and paintings can't earn travel expenses, so Tang Tang can only make up his own clothes.The two sets of clothes in his package were packed when he was about to leave home for the first time. They were the two most expensive sets of clothes he had worn only twice.

As if cutting flesh in his heart, Tang Tang went into the pawnshop with his burden.What made him even more heartbroken was that his two sets of clothes, which were originally worth a hundred taels, could only be regarded as five taels of silver in the eyes of the pawnbroker.

"You guys are deceiving people too much, how could it be five taels. Look at the high-quality materials, the best workmanship, and the embroidery. Not to mention buying this clothes, five taels is not enough for the embroidery work alone. Twice, the price will be discounted, but you can’t bully people like this.” After escaping from Nancheng, Tang Tang disregarded his face for the first time and quarreled with others with his face flushed.

This is the only valuable thing he has on hand. If he can't pay the carriage fee tomorrow, he won't be able to keep up with the caravan.And if he fails to reach the capital in time, his last hope of revenge will be shattered.

The store clerk didn't care what he thought, and sneered contemptuously: "If you wear it, it's old clothes. It doesn't matter how many times you wear them. If it wasn't for the fact that they looked like new clothes, the shop wouldn't accept them. Don't you know, son, that the children of aristocratic families wouldn't buy them?" This kind of second-hand goods, if poor children insist on maintaining their appearance, they will grit their teeth and scrape together money to get a decent set. Young Master's clothes are good, but only poor scholars who can't even maintain their appearance will be greedy for cheap. If the clothes sell for ten taels, we give the young master five taels, and we are betting that someone will buy them. If there is no one with the same stature as the young master to buy, we have to keep the clothes in our hands, and we are afraid that we will lose money."

Tang Tang was ridiculed by the opponent, his face was flushed red.In fact, he had already been persuaded by the other party to sell, but he couldn't face it, and he was embarrassed to continue talking, so he left in a hurry with his clothes in his arms.

When it was time for the next one, Tang Tang calmed down again, and decided to compare the prices among the three before deciding which one to sell.If it was really only five taels, he would have to find other ways to make up for the gap.

Several houses in a row seemed to be agreed upon, and the maximum was only open to five taels. Tang Tang almost gave up hope, and walked into another house casually.

"How much can this be?"

"Sir, do you want to die or live?"

"Death."

"The clothes are good, but they are not very easy to sell. The small shop can sell five taels. I don't know if the young master is willing to give up his love."

The guy in the store was handsome, gentle and polite, which made Tang Tang feel a little more comfortable. Even though the price was not higher than other stores, he didn't feel too much disgust: "Okay, I'll sell you."

The guy was also happy to make a deal, and soon the two paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other.

"Hey, is this piece of material, young master?"

Seeing a piece of snow-white silk falling out of Tang Tang's bundle, the guy couldn't move his eyes away.To be a pawnbroker, first of all, he has to see a lot of high-quality goods that can only be used by rich and noble families. It is reasonable that he has seen the world, but he has never seen such materials.

Tang Tang saw that it was the useless piece of material that Jin Youcai sold him.After thinking about it, Jin Youcai dresses richly, and dares to guarantee that it can be sold for a hundred taels.

With hope in his heart, Tang Tang shook the material on the counter and showed it to the waiter: "Do you see how much this can be worth?"

Fortunately, he felt sorry for 40 taels of silver last night, and washed the material clean.The material is really good, and the blood stuck to it was washed with clean water, and it dried completely after hanging it overnight.

The guy didn't expect that this piece of material looked small and thin, and he thought it was just a small piece, but when it was completely spread out, it turned out to be one foot wide and two feet long.And the material is almost transparent, the tentacles are silky and smooth, I have never seen it before.

Seeing that Lie Xin was happy, the clerk asked expectantly: "I don't know about this, but if you agree, I can take it in and let our shopkeeper take a look."

Just now, he thought that the problem of travel expenses would be solved soon, but he didn't expect to be happy for nothing. Tang Tang felt as if he was standing on the top of the cliff, and he was about to be stimulated to go crazy. He said weakly: "Then there is trouble."

Seeing that Tang Tang didn't object, the clerk carefully folded the tulle before holding it in.After a while, the clerk came out cheerfully and congratulated Tang Tang: "The shopkeeper originally planned to buy it at ten taels, but the owner happened to be there today, so I asked him to add ten taels, but I would like to ask you to tell me something, where did you buy this material? If you don't want to tell me, it's okay, you can still buy it at ten taels."

Tang Tang didn't expect that it was just a piece of news that he could sell it for ten taels, so he immediately agreed.Although he bought this material for a hundred taels, it is not bad that it can still be sold at this price after it has been used and washed.And as long as he arrives in the capital, he will never be short of money again, there is no need to feel sorry for him, at worst, he will find Brother Youcai to buy a few horses for fun in the future.

After disclosing Luo Chengren's information, Tang Tang went to the caravan with the 25 taels of silver ticket to get the sign.Same as Luo Chengren's five taels of food treatment, five taels of accommodation, five taels of carriage fare, and one tael of protection fee.In this way, there are still nine taels left, and finally the money is not so tight.

But immediately Tang Tang's face turned green again, he actually forgot to redeem those two sets of clothes.But after thinking about it, he sold the cotton brocade after dying as clothes. Even if he wanted to redeem it, the store would not be able to resell him for five taels.In this way, he might as well use the money to buy a few more sets of clean clothes, shoes and socks to save money.

At this point, Tang Tang completely bid farewell to his rich and well-dressed past, changed into commoner clothes, and ate steamed buns to survive.

He hoped in his heart that the time would pass quickly, and when the caravan set off, he would be able to eat good food then.At least in front of everyone, he still doesn't want to lose face, he wants to be enviable when it comes to food!

***

On the other side, Luo Chengren had just stepped into the inn after a day of outings, when he heard Zhan Zhuoyi's gloating voice in his mind: "Aren, your good brother is here!" '

'No! '

It's rare for Luo Chengren to be in a hurry. With his current appearance, it's okay to show off outside. If Lou Weifeng sees him, he won't be laughed to death.And he really didn't want to lose his elder brother's majesty in front of Lou Weifeng, so he couldn't bully that guy casually in the future.

Zhan Zhuoyi happily rolled in Luo Chengren's arms, rolling around.Luo Chengren put him in his clothes before, and he wore thin clothes in summer, so the people in the inn could naturally see the round bulge on Luo Chengren's chest, and they all looked at him with embarrassment.

Luo Chengren pretended to have an itchy chest in embarrassment, scratched it, took out the golden egg, and smiled awkwardly at everyone: "This thing is inconvenient to hold, and it's even more inconvenient to put it on the body."

Seeing the golden egg, everyone realized that the man in the fine attire was actually the God of Wealth. He nodded in understanding, and said with a flattering smile, "Your old man, the golden egg is really big. How heavy is it?"

At this time, Luo Chengren noticed that some people's eyes were flickering in the crowd, and he thought that there were so many people with evil intentions.In order to reduce trouble, and to teach those guys who dared to take advantage of his family's Xiaoyi, he deliberately said: "I don't know how heavy it is, but you can measure it yourself."

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately became interested, gathered together, and asked in disbelief: "Is it really for the lower class?"

"That's natural." While speaking, Luo Chengren took out a square handkerchief from his sleeve, and put the golden egg in the center.

The golden egg hit the table, and the table shook with a toothache creaking sound.

When everyone saw this movement, they couldn't help admiring: "It really has weight."

Only the shopkeeper of the inn was watching with fear: Desk, you have to be tighter, if you are crushed by a piece of gold, who will I ask to pay for it!

If it really collapsed, not only would he not be able to find anyone to pay for the table, but he would probably have to pay someone else a shock fee!

It's a pity that no one cared about the shopkeeper's mood, and they were gearing up and eager to try.

Luo Chengren knotted the veil diagonally, fixed the golden egg, and smiled very innocently: "Everyone can come and try it, just be careful not to drop my baby."
