Chapter 179 Is It Ten to Two Percent?

"I see that the two of you really want to buy it, why not at this price?" The shopkeeper of the pawn shop smiled slightly, and pointed two fingers at Ji Zhaobi.

"Twenty taels?" Ji Zhao immediately raised his eyebrows, "It's a bit more expensive."

"The guest officer misunderstood." The pawn shop manager hurriedly explained, "The old man said two hundred taels! No money!"

"Two hundred taels?" Ji Zhao was instantly amused, "Shopkeeper, isn't it too high for you?"

"Our Longtaisheng pawn shop is also an old sign in Dingyuan County," the shopkeeper subconsciously stroked his mustache, and said with a smile, "The price set by the old man is not high! After all, this enamel porcelain The snuff bottle is worth the price, otherwise the two of you wouldn't have fallen in love at first sight, do you think that's the reason?"

Ji Zhao didn't expect the shopkeeper of the pawn shop to be so eloquent, but in front of her, he still owed a bit of heat.

"Forgive me for not agreeing with what the shopkeeper said." Ji Zhao smiled slightly, "It's a good saying, there are only wrong buyers, no wrong sellers. Although the enamel snuff bottle in your hand is very delicate, can it be Is there no snuff bottle more exquisite than this one in this world? You must know that there are mountains outside the sky and mountains. If today, I bought this snuff bottle at your price of two hundred taels, but if I see it in the future, it will be better than this one. What about something more refined?"

"This..." The shopkeeper of the pawnshop was taken aback by Ji Zhao's words, and suddenly couldn't find anything to refute.

"Shopkeeper, we don't want you to go around in circles anymore, one price, twenty taels, do you think it's okay?" Ji Zhao smiled slightly, "If our business is completed today, it will be regarded as a handover." friend?"

"Twenty taels, really not!" The shopkeeper quickly shook his head, "It's too little."

"That's such a pity." Ji Zhao shook her head, took Shen Yao's hand and was about to leave. She deliberately lowered her voice and said, "Actually, this snuff bottle is a fake!"

"Why do you see that?" Shen Yao immediately understood and asked with raised eyebrows.

"Did you forget? The ninth aunt of our uncle's second cousin's cousin's daughter-in-law is serving at Master Zhizhou's house? She said that Master Sun of Zhizhou likes to collect snuff bottles the most. The one in the pawnshop is now It's a fake!"

"Then why do you insist on buying it?" Shen Yao asked softly following her words.

"Bought it for fun, besides, doesn't our father like it? But now it seems that we are out of luck, let's go..."

Ji Zhao and Shen Yao whispered to each other;

They thought their voices were very soft, but the shopkeeper of the pawnshop listened with pricked ears!

"Two guest officers!" The shopkeeper of the pawn shop also kept an eye on it, and walked around cheerfully in front of Ji Zhao, "The so-called business cannot be done without righteousness, please ask the two guest officers to leave your name and address? This old man will help the two of you." Go ask the owner, if the owner agrees to sell this snuff bottle at a low price, then the old man will go to you two, will it work?"

Ji Zhao subconsciously glanced at Shen Yao, both of them saw smiles in each other's eyes, but they still had a look of regret on their faces, "Shopkeeper, we appreciate your kindness, but you should also It can be seen that our husband and wife have average family backgrounds, but these twenty taels are already our limit."

"Since we have no fate with this snuff bottle, then don't force it." Shen Yao sighed softly, "Farewell!"

Nalong Taisheng's shopkeeper felt a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart.

After the two walked out of the pawn shop, they turned an alley and arrived at the west side of Qinghe Long Street.

Craftsman silver workshop.

Ji Zhao carefully took out a list from his purse, and then successfully took out a pair of silver bracelets.

The extremely smooth silver bracelet was polished, and the inside was engraved with eight neat characters.

Be healthy and safe, and have a smooth life.

"Is this a gift you prepared for Zhuang Zhuang?" Shen Yao was surprised, "A Tao, when did you prepare it?"

"About a month ago." Ji Zhao carefully examined the pair of silver bracelets, and then said with a smile, "Shen Yao, what do you think? Do they look good?"

"It looks good." Shen Yao smiled moved.

"I think Zhuang Zhuang will definitely like it," Ji Zhao said with a smile after paying the balance, "Let's go?"

"where to?"

"Have a meal!"

The sky and the earth are big, and the food is the biggest!

This is the life motto that Ji Zhao believes in.

The two came to the street at the intersection of West Street and ordered two large bowls of wontons in chicken soup.

"Why do you insist on buying that snuff bottle?" After sitting down, Shen Yao cast a curious look at Ji Zhao.

"When I was cooking for Mrs. Ma's birthday banquet at Ma's house, I heard that Mrs. Ma likes to collect snuff bottles." Ji Zhao explained softly, "Although this is the news that Steward Ma 'unintentionally' revealed , but I think it is very useful for us.”

"The enamel snuff bottle we saw in the pawnshop just now is not top-notch craftsmanship, but it has a small and exquisite appearance and is very beautiful."

"If we can successfully buy this snuff bottle and present it to Mrs. Ma as a gift, then our shop will definitely gain a firm foothold in a short period of time."

Now, under the supervision of Shen Dalang, the shop at Hongxing Restaurant is progressing very quickly;

Ji Zhao has already figured out how to run the shop.

"Shen Yao, just watch, that snuff bottle will become our possession sooner or later!" Ji Zhao silently shook hands and said with confidence.

"Well, A Tao is very powerful."

as predicted.

After noon, when Ji Zhao passed by Long Taisheng's pawnshop casually, he was enthusiastically accepted by the old shopkeeper.

"I'm too old to be talented. May I ask how you two can see that this snuff bottle is a defective product?"

"Shopkeeper, you might as well turn this snuff bottle around and take a closer look at the inscription on it!" Ji Zhao laughed quickly.

The old shopkeeper couldn't wait to turn the snuff bottle over, only to find that the red inscription engraved on the bottom had turned upside down!

"So that's how it is!" The old shopkeeper suddenly realized, and thanked again and again, "Thanks to your sharp eyes, you can see the clues here!"

The old shopkeeper spent six taels of silver to take this snuff bottle yesterday. He thought that he could sell it for at least sixty taels, but he never thought that it was a fake!

"Guest officer, I don't know the price of twenty taels, are you still willing to pay?"

"I don't want to." Ji Zhao shook his head resolutely, "This snuff bottle looks very special at first glance, but it can't stand careful consideration."

"Then you see, is it worth 12 percent?"
