Chapter 804: Opportunity Is Ahead but Unknown

"Don't shake it. The one below is holy water, and the one above is a golden lotus platform. There is a celestial mirror on the lotus platform. The golden Buddha is a Buddhist scripture. You need a special mirror to see the scriptures. It is passed down from ancestors."

The man carefully handed the thing over and told the other person what it was.

The shopkeeper didn't say anything, picked up a piece of silk, took the things carefully, and then took the golden Buddha alone.

He glanced at the water in the glass bottle and wondered what kind of water it was.

He understood the glass bottles and used them for kerosene lamps. Lijiazhuang had them.

The golden lotus platform is indeed a lotus platform with a mirror on it. It is said that people in the palace had mirrors, and some mirrors were sold to Tubo and were valuable.

The shopkeeper calmly took out a magnifying glass made of crystal and looked at the golden Buddha.

Just one glance and he felt his heartbeat speed up.

Based on the weight and size, he had determined that it was a gold Buddha.

When looking at it with a magnifying glass, you can faintly see some small words, but you can't see them clearly with the magnifying glass.

This is... what kind of trick?

In broad daylight, the shopkeeper lit a kerosene lamp and looked carefully under the light.

The Buddhist scriptures are indeed Buddhist scriptures. I can see a few words in front of me. Yes, what an amazing craftsmanship.

He took a deep breath, put down the golden Buddha, and asked: "A living person or a best friend?"

"Of course it's a pawn. My family is in urgent need of money. Otherwise, how could I take this thing out and borrow it temporarily? I'll have to redeem it in a month at most."

The man looked at the shopkeeper warily, as if he was afraid that he would be killed.

"How much does it cost?" the shopkeeper asked again.

"One hundred min, not too much, guaranteed to come back within a month, how much profit do you think?" The man raised his finger.

"It's not worth it! This thing..."

"Shopkeeper, I don't want you to be fooled. Isn't a hundred coins worth it? You are telling lies with your eyes open. I will give you a thousand coins, and you can bring me the same Buddhist scriptures and golden Buddha."

The man got angry and reached out to take it back.

"Wait a minute, let me take another look." The shopkeeper stretched out his hand to block it, and took a magnifying glass to look again.

As I watched, my heartbeat continued to quicken. I had to take it as my own first. The engraved characters were so small that I couldn’t even see them clearly with a magnifying glass. How could they be engraved?

And I don’t know what the lotus platform is made of? The mirror is a real mirror, holy water... maybe that's right.

This thing is worth thousands of coins.

"Is that okay? If not, I'll find another one." The man asked with a frown.

"Yes!" The shopkeeper agreed. He hoped that the other party could not exchange it for money, and then this thing would be his.

"Okay, just write the receipt." The man looked impatient.

"Okay, write~~" the shopkeeper said in a long voice: "Ordinary glass buckets, wastewater miscellaneous mixtures, dyed lotus terraces, broken bushes in cracked areas, old Buddhas..."

"Wait a minute, shopkeeper, it's inappropriate for me to write like this." The man refused.

This is called jargon, and the good things are said at the same time. The purpose is that if there is a problem in the future, it will be judged according to what is written down.

Like a good leather coat, the pawner will say: missing edges and hair, insect-eaten and rat-eaten, cracked face and stained, torn and missing.

Because if it is not well preserved and damaged, the compensation will be reduced as much as possible.

The colloquialisms of pawnbroking are heart-piercing.

"I'm a pawn. I'll take it back within a month. What are you going to do?" The man glared.

"One cent profit." The shopkeeper stretched out two fingers.

"Three cents." The man disagreed.

This benefit is calculated in terms of days, one point represents one percent, thirty days, thirty percent.

One hundred mins are pawned, and one hundred and thirty mins must be paid back thirty days later.

It more than tripled in one year, and that’s not even counting the profits.

Of course, the pawn will either go out nine times or return home thirteen times, or the interest will be calculated on a daily basis.

If it is one month, extend it to three months. After one month, the interest will be compounded.

If you don't redeem it within a month, you will be given ninety days to compound interest.

The ninety-day compound interest of one penny is approximately 2.449 times.

One hundred and thirty cents multiplied by two point four hundred and forty-nine, this will be the amount in four months.

"Five cents, I'll rewrite it, but it'll only be extended for one month." The shopkeeper paid back the price.

"Okay!" The man thought about it and gritted his teeth and agreed.

The shopkeeper went to weigh the golden Buddha and found exactly six taels.

"Write~~" the shopkeeper shouted again: "Transparent glass vase, with half-clear water underneath, lotus paste on top, and a round mirror to support it, a golden Buddha with six ounces of light, and a small scripture. When the money is a hundred coins, one The profit of five cents is calculated by the month.

"Write another sentence, if the price exceeds one million, you will pay three times if it is damaged." The man followed up and said, this set of things is worth more than one million, and if it breaks, you will pay three times.

"Six cents." The shopkeeper added the price.

"Okay." The man agreed, so the profit from five cents was changed to six cents.

The two parties signed a deed, pressed their fingerprints, sealed it in the store, gave the man a stack of exchange coupons, and the pawn was completed.

The man left, and the shopkeeper took several deep breaths: "Follow me and check."

He wants this golden Buddha. It's so beautiful. The key is that he doesn't know who made it.

This thing is really not expensive at three thousand coins. I don't care about selling it for money, but giving it as a gift.

It didn't take long before the person from behind came over again: "I went to Luoyang. It seems there is something urgent. Do I still need to check the hired car?"

"No need." The shopkeeper took out some more money and gave it to the other party.

…

Lijiazhuangzi.

"The first and second steps are completed." Song De spoke to Li Yi respectfully, and he simply knelt down to Li Yi.

Others just say something and then leave it to the stewards and housekeepers to deal with it.

It reflects the ability to manage things. Many proprietors themselves are actually quite useless.

I, the owner, was really too mean when I cheated people.

"The third step will be launched in two days, which will be a benefit to the people of Jingzhao Prefecture. Oh, am I bullying such an opponent too much?"

Li Yi looked self-blaming, as if he didn't want to cheat people.

At this moment, he was like a person who was forced and had to resist, at least that's what he thought.

"The owner is kind and righteous, they are bullying too much, the owner has good intentions."

Song De praised him hard, he felt that the best choice in his life was to agree to the owner's purchase. UU Reading wwｗ.uuｋaｎshu.net

At the same time, he was very happy that the owner finally acted like a normal person.

In the past, the owner was rarely aggressive, and he was always for the country and the people. Now the owner was moved by an 'ordinary' woman and changed his style of behavior.

In the future, Zhuangzi will have a female owner, and when the little owner and the little 'princess' are born, it will look like a home.

"There are still two and a half days left. Don't say I didn't give them a chance. Admit your mistakes early and pay the price. Everything will be fine.

Song De, don't you think they are not as good as Lao Yu and his friends? They offended me and apologized immediately when they saw that something was wrong.

This is good. It's endless. They have given enough hints.

Selling greenhouse vegetables again and again, and selling them in one place, don't they think more?"

Li Yi felt that he gave the other party a chance.

If it were him at that time, he would bully a person selling medical products.

The first bullying was successful, and then the other party did the same thing in the same place, and he bullied again.

If the other party continued to do the same thing in the same place, he would be afraid.

Quickly find out the bottom, find connections, and ask about the situation.

Don't dare to do it again, and stop your own business.

If you don't even have this reaction and awareness, you will be killed by others.

And Jiang, why didn't you think about it again and again, three times in a day?

"Boss, sometimes people can't see the situation clearly, otherwise there wouldn't be only 220 students coming the next year."

Song De also felt sad for Jiang Hui and others. He gave you chance after chance.
