Chapter 319 Ugly Mule?

"This?" The old gentleman from the bank was a little stupid.

I sat there for a moment not knowing what to say. After a long while, he murmured: "Could it be that your guest came to our bank to look for trouble?"

Zhang Xiaohua was surprised: "I'm just taking my money, who is impatiently looking for trouble for you?"

"Then go ahead and get the silver. Why do you need so many copper coins?"

Zhang Xiaohua was even more surprised: "What's wrong with copper coins? I just like spending them? What's the matter? Your big bank doesn't even have five copper coins?"

"This!" The old gentleman was also choked by what he said.

Zhang Xiaohua is right. Qianzhuang Qianzhuang is all about money. How come it doesn't have some reserves of copper coins? However, the transactions in this bank are usually gold and silver. If you take a large amount of silver and gold, that is completely normal, but the person in front of you took five taels. The banknote must be exchanged for five copper coins, which is a large amount of five thousand Wen. This is unprecedented.

"Are you a bank? Do you have any copper coins?"

Zhang Xiaohua was a little impatient.

The old gentleman finally came to his senses and confirmed, "Sir, do you really want to exchange it for copper coins?"

"Yes, it just needs to be exchanged for copper coins."

The old gentleman still advised: "Sir, if you go to the market to spend money, you can just use your scattered silver. Why bother?"

Zhang Xiaohua insisted and said: "Isn't it written on the wall of Guiqianzhuang: 'Above guest officials'? I can't meet this requirement?"

The old gentleman looked at the four big characters on the wall and had no choice but to stand up and say: "Little three, little four, go get five copper coins for this guest."

"Hold on!" Zhang Xiaohua thought of something again, took out two banknotes from his arms and said: "By the way, old gentleman, could you please exchange these two banknotes, one for one dollar, and the other for one?" Into copper coins!”

"Ah!!" The old gentleman was dumbfounded: "Why do you still need to change it?"

"That's right? Doesn't your bank have any copper coins?"

"Alas~" The old gentleman had no choice but to wave his hand and said: "Xiaosi, you two go to the back and see if there are so many copper coins in our treasury!"

Fortunately, not long after, I heard humming and squeaking from behind. The two men carried out piles of copper coins, walked to the back of the counter with great effort, and used a lot of strength to hear " "Bang, bang" was placed on the high counter. Never before at this moment, the two of them complained more about who designed such a high counter.

Seeing the small mountain of copper coins on the counter, Zhang Xiaohua was also a little dizzy. He had never thought that ten taels of silver could be exchanged for so many copper coins. Looking at the dozens of small pieces of silver coins next to him, they were just like this. The pile was worth half of the copper coins. In an instant, Zhang Xiaohua's almost zero financial knowledge was added to the pile.

Looking at so many copper coins, Zhang Xiaohua asked with a smile: "Old sir, can your bank give me a big sack?"

The old gentleman was already depressed enough by his harassment and did not say anything. He waved his hand to the mistress. The mistress casually picked up a half-old sack from his feet and threw it on the pile of money. Zhang Xiaohua did not dislike it and smiled. He took it, put the ten thousand yuan into the sack, carried it with his hand, turned around and grabbed dozens of scattered pieces of silver on the counter, put it into his arms, and then stood there quietly.

Seeing that Zhang Xiaohua was still not leaving, the old gentleman frowned and said, "Sir, what else do you want?"

Zhang Xiaohua was a little surprised and opened her mouth to speak. The old man quickly said: "Sir, you should go and do your own business. Our bank really has no spare copper coins anymore. Even if you want to change it, you can't." .”

After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua chuckled and said: "Since there really isn't any, I won't exchange it. However, your bank should carry more copper coins. Maybe I will exchange it tomorrow."

The old gentleman sat behind the counter, rolled his eyes, and almost fainted.

He waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Sir, please go slowly. I have business to do, so I won't stand up."

Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "Do you really want me to leave now?"

"Really, sir, you'd better leave as soon as possible."

At this time, the old gentleman no longer cared about the shop rules that said "Guests first" on the wall and spoke his mind.

"Okay, I'll leave now." After saying that, Zhang Xiaohua easily picked up the large sack, turned around and walked out of the bank, followed by Ji Xiaohua who also looked puzzled.

As soon as she walked out of the bank, Ji Xiaohua quickly caught up with Zhang Xiaohua and whispered: "Master, did you make a mistake just now? It seems..."

Before Ji Xiaohua finished speaking, Zhang Xiaohua looked back, pulled Ji Xiaohua and ran away. He didn't care about the direction and turned several intersections. Then he stopped and said with a smile: "Making a lot of money, making a lot of money." , today is equivalent to a month that I spent at Huanxi Villa!"

"Master, what are you talking about? Why can't you understand? Is it because the bank has no tap?"

However, Zhang Xiaohua did not explain to him and said: "Children, what do you know? Let's go."

At this time, in the bank, the old gentleman had just escaped from his impetuous state of mind and was leisurely sipping fragrant tea. He seemed to feel that something was missing. Suddenly, he put the tea cup on the table with a clang and asked: "Miss Mistress." , Xiaosi, when you gave that boy some money, did you take out the tap?"

The two people looked at each other, and they defended themselves: "Old sir, you always take the tap. Naturally, we brothers will not take your job."

"Ouch, I was confused by this little bastard just now, but I forgot to take the tap." After saying that, he ran out of the bank in a hurry. Where could he see anyone?

The old gentleman looked around but didn't see anything. He stamped his feet and walked back. The two men comforted him: "Don't worry, old gentleman. Didn't that guy say he'll come back tomorrow? Just ask him to come back tomorrow."

"What the hell, didn't you see that the bank note says Pingyang City? This guy is from out of town. He might leave the city soon. How can he come back tomorrow?"

The two of them curled their lips and said, "It turns out that the old gentleman knew that this person was from out of town, so he turned a dime of tap into a penny."

"It's not like you're not here, what's there to complain about? Forget it, forget it, I hunt geese every day, but today I got a peck in the eye."

"Let's go? Where are you going now, young master?" Ji Xiaohua asked responsibly.

Zhang Xiaohua held a long sword in one hand and a sack in the other. She didn't have a third hand to touch her chin. She thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to your house first."

"Huh? Going to Xiaohua's home?" Ji Xiaohua was confused, but she still listened to Zhang Xiaohua's words and turned around to lead her away.

At this time, an old man wearing a felt hat and ragged clothes slowly walked out of the diagonal, followed by a slow-moving animal that didn't look like a mule or a horse. The animal carried a heavy load on its back. There was a pile of dry firewood, the body was messy, dirty, and there was a big bald patch, and there was an unpleasant smell from all the way.

As soon as Ji Xiaohua saw the old man, she smiled and shouted from afar: "Dad Hao, are you always going out to collect firewood again?"

Hearing the voice, the old man raised his wrinkled face, opened his cloudy eyes, looked at it, and said dissatisfiedly: "Xiaohua, why didn't you go to the tea shed to help today?"

Ji Xiaohua blushed and argued: "Dad Hao, it's not that I don't care, it's just that the shopkeeper..."

Father Hao raised his hand, rubbed Ji Xiaohua's little head, and sighed: "I know, Xiaohua, the tea shop owner is a bit stingy, but how can we poor people not be offended? I'll wait until tomorrow and give it to you again. You talk about Xiang, talk about Xiang. Maybe the tea shopkeeper can recognize my face to a certain extent. It would be nice if you could earn more. The tea shed is weatherproof and is very suitable for you."

Seeing Father Hao educating Ji Xiaohua, Zhang Xiaohua had no choice but to stand and listen. This was no different from the kind-hearted uncles and aunts in Guozhuang. Even if they were not their own children, they would do their best to help anyone who could help. .

But at this time, the animal standing next to him opened his almost closed eyes, sniffed, and seemed to smell something. When he saw Zhang Xiaohua, his eyes seemed a little brighter, so he shuffled his steps. , walked up to Zhang Xiaohua, raised his head, and brought the strange head forward.

Although the livestock had a strange smell, Zhang Xiaohua also grew up in the countryside, so why should she be afraid of this? Throwing the sack on the ground, he raised his hand, stroked the animal's head, and touched it up and down. The animal enjoyed it very much, and even stuck out its tongue and licked Zhang Xiaohua's hand. Zhang Xiaohua felt itchy and very comfortable. Look again Zhang Xiaohua was stunned when she looked into the animal's eyes. Those eyes seemed to reveal attachment, desire, and expectation.

Zhang Xiaohua wiped her eyes with her hands in disbelief. When she looked carefully, she found that her eyes, which were half-closed just now, were now wide open and looking at her quietly. Her eyes were like a psychic, and she seemed to be transmitting information. thinking about it.

Only then did Zhang Xiaohua remember to look at this strange animal carefully.

The animal's face looks like a horse, long, but there are two protrusions on its head, which look like antlers, and its hooves are big, similar to those of a cow, or even bigger. But the big tail is like that of a donkey. This strange animal looks like a deer but not a deer, a horse but not a horse, an ox but not an ox, and a donkey but not a donkey, but I don’t know what it is?

Ji Xiaohua listened to Father Hao's education and saw the animal licking Zhang Xiaohua's hand. She hurried up and said, "Master, please stay away. Don't dirty your clothes."

But seeing that Zhang Xiaohua didn't mind at all, she smiled and said: "Master, Huanhuan is the cutest, has a docile temperament, and doesn't bite. I guess you have never been in contact with animals. Judging from Huanhuan's appearance, she is very cute." Like you."

Then, he said coquettishly: "Although Huanhuan has some smell, it will be very clean after washing. If you don't like it, can I wash it off now?"

Only then did Father Hao notice Zhang Xiaohua next to Ji Xiaohua and asked, "Who is this young master...?"

Ji Xiaohua told Zhang Xiaohua the reason for her visit, and Hao Hao nodded with a smile.
