Chapter 252 I Want to Be a Villain 42

After Tao Ran activated his aura to its maximum strength, he jumped out of the carriage.

She stood in front of the shop and looked up and down, with her eyes raised above her head, looking arrogant and arrogant.

The store owner noticed her and came out to greet her, but she threw the horse's reins directly out, "The car will be tied up in front of your store, I'll leave right away!"

Seeing that her outfit was of high value, the store owner quickly followed suit.

Tao Ran entered the shop carrying two boxes.

Her momentum and confidence were so strong that as soon as she entered the shop, the shopkeeper greeted her with a smile.

Tao Ran was very indifferent: "My time is precious, let's see how much money you can give me these two boxes of goodies!"

The jewelry and various jade pendants in the box are basically all top quality.

"So many, all sold?"

"Yes, sell them all."

"May I ask, girl, where did these come from?"

"What does it have to do with you!"

Tao Ran's face smelled very bad. I knew it would be like this. She had too many things to sell. If she came here in tatters, who would have to guess whether these things were stolen goods? When the time comes, not only will no one take it, but I'm afraid they'll have to report it to the official, which means the gain outweighs the loss.

Now she looks like a arrogant and arrogant rich lady, which will increase her confidence in selling goods.

Sure enough, the shopkeeper didn't know Tao Ran's origins, so he didn't dare to offend him so he had to apologize: "It's an industry rule that things must have provenance, so don't blame me, girl."

Tao Ran snorted. "I'm from the Tao family in the southwest..."

"Southwestern Tao family?"

"The Tao family, which trades spices and is known as one of the three great families in the Southwest, don't you even know that?" Tao Ran's face was full of disgust.

The shopkeeper immediately smiled and said: "I have little knowledge and only have a little knowledge of the Tao family."

Tao Ran snorted again,

"I'm engaged to a well-known family in your provincial capital...I can't tell you the specific one. In short, I'm engaged to a certain young master from a powerful family in your city, and we will get married soon.

I came all the way to make preparations, but unexpectedly I encountered a group of refugees on the road, and my carriage and my convoy got lost. The only people left with me were the coachman and my nanny. The coachman was injured and grandma was at the inn. Now I am so poor that I only have jewelry. I needed money, so I planned to sell the jewelry around me and go get the rest of the team back. It's that simple. "

Her story doesn't matter.

What is important to the shopkeeper is that this girl is the fiancée of a well-known local gentleman. The shopkeeper quickly thought about which young master he was?

Those who can dominate a place making spices are not ordinary merchants. The daughter of such a family who has come all the way here may not be marrying into a rich family, but into a powerful family.

And this girl's refusal to say the man's name probably confirms this point.

Looking at the package, looking at the girl's outfit and the aura she exudes, I can't be wrong in my guess.

Just like that, with a few casual words from Tao Ran, the shopkeeper decided that she was a noble person who could not be offended. He quickly asked his men to bring tea and snacks, invited Tao Ran to sit upstairs for a slow chat, and ordered someone to quickly feed the horse with concentrated feed.

"No need to bother, just tell me, do you want to charge for this thing, and how much money will it cost?"

"Collect, collect, collect." They are all brand new, and the other party is in a hurry to sell them, buying low and selling high, so as to make money by changing hands. Such a good thing, it would be foolish not to accept it.

"One thousand...two hundred taels?" The shopkeeper tentatively gave a low price.

Tao Ran took out Ni Hong's bracelet and pendant: "This is my personal treasure. Do you know how much money you paid for it? Who are you looking down on by giving this price? Forget it, let's not talk about it. I'll go to the next store. "

Tao Ran collected his things and left.

The shopkeeper quickly stopped him, "I'm joking with the girl. I'll add more in one breath, two thousand taels!"

In fact, Tao Ran didn't know how much money these things were worth. She was just judging the shopkeeper's background based on his expression and eyes.

So facing this price that already made Tao Ran very excited, she still suppressed her excitement and sneered: "You probably haven't thought yet that after I finish dealing with this troublesome matter, I might be the biggest store in your shop in the future." A customer, right?"

And this sentence is indeed very heartwarming.

Those who trade in spices are rich! He felt heartbroken when he saw so many good things thrown haphazardly into the box, regardless of whether they would be broken or not. It showed how wealthy this girl was. Isn’t such a person a big customer?

Yes, the wife of a powerful man who has come from a long way will never see you again in the future. Instead of rushing to make money, it's better to leave a good impression so that you can make money in the future.

This also gave the shopkeeper another six hundred taels in one breath.

"This is the limit. I just want to buy Miss Tao's favor. I just hope that I can get Miss Tao's care in the future. The price I'm paying is definitely the highest in the entire provincial capital."

Tao Ran's time is precious.

With this sentence, she stopped grinding.

She readily sold two boxes of gold and jade.

Before leaving, he also put the gold and jade that was scattered all over his head and body into the hands of the shopkeeper, and exchanged it for one hundred taels of silver.

Next, Tao Ran used the exact same name to sell calligraphy and paintings.

"These were originally my dowry. We finally snatched them back from the refugees. Because the mounting paper was somewhat damaged, and for the convenience of handling, I cut off the calligraphy and painting. Some of the wrinkles were also caused by the robbery. I believe you can handle it.”

A bunch of calligraphy and paintings plus inkstones, paperweights and other items only sold for more than 1,400 taels. The main reason was that there were two calligraphy and paintings that were difficult to distinguish between genuine and fake. The store did not dare to increase the price, and Tao Ran couldn't wait any longer, so he had to sell them cheaply.

It’s similar at antique shops. A few small things conveniently stuffed into the sack were also sold for five hundred taels of silver...

At this point, the entire car is basically empty. Yesterday's stolen goods have basically been disposed of.

She now only has a bunch of silver coins on her body.

Well, all she wants is the banknote.

She couldn't get used to wearing these expensive clothes. She felt distressed too. The eighty taels of silver for the clothes was enough to feed the refugees in a city.

So she went back to the clothing store and called the shopkeeper again.

She wanted to take off her clothes again.

The shopkeeper refused, but the dozens of long knives and swords in Tao Ran's car were really scary, so the shopkeeper could only admit that he was unlucky. After taking ninety taels back, Tao Ran bought more than a dozen sets of ordinary clothes from this store.

Men's and women's shirts are available in various colors, including a set of all-black men's clothing, as well as matching headscarves and other items...

At this point, Taoran’s one-day trip to the provincial capital is coming to an end.

Although he spent a lot of money today, Tao Ran still has more than 7,000 taels of silver in his hand.

This money would be enough for Jin Gui to eat and wait for ten lifetimes, but she wouldn't be able to use it all!

The money must be spent in more appropriate places no matter what!

After packing some dry food, Tao Ran set off back.

She is indeed pressed for time!

She had to see Li Dashan's performance, see if she needed help and guidance, see if she needed to fan the flames...

Besides, it was already getting late.

Rushing in the dark is risky, so it’s best to rush back as quickly as possible before dark.

Hidden away in the city. She was not worried at all that a thief like her would be targeted by the Qian family.

However, halfway through the journey, Tao Ran was targeted.
