Chapter 105: When Something!
At this moment, there is an antique pawn shop in the East City, with three big characters written on the big golden plaque, which is very simple, but very interesting: when things
This name sounds very strange, simple and straightforward to the point that it does not resemble the style of the ancients, but with that extremely arrogant handwriting, it makes people think of it when they see these three words, dang! East-West!
One thing, one east-west! The same pronunciation, but two completely different momentum!
However, the pawn shop, which has always been quiet, is unusually today, and a group of people came in early, and fortunately, the shop is large enough, and this group of people does not seem crowded when they come in.
The pawn shop guy had just wiped the counter clean, and when he saw a customer coming to the door, he hurriedly greeted him, but seeing that the customer was still with a group of guards, he was a little unhappy.
Frowning slightly, he said to Zhang Qiang, who was in the lead: "Dare to ask the guest officer is the first time to come to "be a thing", the order of our family has always been the best in Chang'an City, is the guest officer's entourage going to wait outside the door for a while, so as not to delay other guests?" ”
Zhang Qiang glanced at the guy with slanted eyes, turned his eyes to other places, and said, "No, no, let's leave immediately!" ”
Zhang Qiang is not stupid, although what this guy said is polite, but anyone can hear the meaning, but he doesn't care about it.
People are coming in, what else can you do to get people out? Besides, these people are not his entourage, this is from Xiao Han's family, he is an outsider who drives people out according to his guy's words, and it doesn't seem like a word?
The guy saw that Zhang Qiang was unmoved, and wanted to say something, but the counter gentleman inside coughed at the right time, and when the guy heard it, he quickly closed his mouth, arched his hand to Zhang Qiang, and retreated.
When he opened the door to do business, he naturally had a shopkeeper with a spring breeze, and as soon as the guy stepped down, a fat man in rich clothes greeted him.
"Hahahaha...... The guest officer came from afar and never greeted him from afar, which is really rude......"
Zhang Qiangxin was actually a little anxious, he didn't see the cash, and he was always unstable, so he didn't want to delay any longer, so he went straight to the point and said: "It's not far, it's not far, the shopkeeper, look at this." ”
As he spoke, Zhang Qiang took out a small wooden box from his close-fitting pocket, which was about to be handed to the shopkeeper.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Qiang just handed it out, but the fat shopkeeper with a spring breeze on his face turned around sensitively and flashed, and he didn't know how the fat body flashed so skillfully...
"Just put the items on the table! The rules of the store, the goods are not handy, please forgive me. Seeing Zhang Qiang wondering, the fat shopkeeper pointed to the small table at hand in a cute manner.
Zhang Qiang didn't understand why there was such a strange rule, but he didn't care too much about these small details, and opened the lid of the wooden box and placed it on a small table in front of him.
The fat shopkeeper's smiling expression never seemed to have changed, and when he saw the piece of paper in the box, he pinched it with one hand and pinched it.
"The guest officer wants to withdraw money?"
"That's right! Right! Right! ”
Zhang Qiang nodded again and again, thinking to himself if I don't mention money, why are I here? This piece of paper from his grandmother is placed on his body, and he can't feel bad no matter how much he drops, and he has to touch it after walking a few steps!
"Hehe, fifteen thousand, minus the commission, the remaining fourteen thousand, may I ask the guest officer for copper coins and gold? Or is it something else equivalent? ”
"What? 1,000 commissions! Why don't you grab ...... Woohoo......"
Just heard that this piece of paper can indeed withdraw money, and finally put his heart in his stomach, but when he heard that the commission alone would be a thousand yuan, Xiaodong jumped up directly, but before he finished speaking, he was covered by Zhang Qiang.
"Fourteen thousand is not much, no less, don't call it!" Zhang Qiang hurriedly pressed Xiaodong on the stool, and said in his heart that he didn't see a penny, so don't call it, see the money first!
The fat shopkeeper seems to have long been accustomed to Xiaodong's questioning, and said in a pleasant voice: "The guest officer's words are wrong, my store has a history of hundreds of years, and this rule has never changed. ”
When Zhang Qiang heard this, he knew that this estimate had already become a rule, not to take their money, so he arched his hand to the fat shopkeeper: "The shopkeeper is not strange, the family has no knowledge, we are here to exchange copper coins this time!" ”
"Did the guest officer bring a car?"
"I have never ......"
"Huh...... Have you ever thought about it, 14,000, how many are there? ”
"Fourteen thousand, there are fourteen thousand, and there can be ......"
Zhang Qiang didn't understand the meaning of the shopkeeper at first, and said half of it, but he woke up immediately!
I have never seen so much money in my life, and when I came to get the money, I didn't even think about whether I could get it! Who would have thought that one day, you won't be able to take away the money?
It has always cost 1,000 yuan, and when converted, it weighs about seven catties, and 14,000 catties, isn't it close to 100,000 catties......... 100,000 catties, what concept??
The heaviest eight-ox crossbow in the barracks is no more than five hundred catties, which is equivalent to more than two hundred eight-ox crossbows, and two hundred eight-ox crossbows cannot be transported in a big war!
The fat shopkeeper saw that Zhang Qiang was suddenly stunned, and he also knew that the overnight rich in front of him hadn't thought about these problems at all, so he couldn't help laughing: "The guest officer might as well be like this, exchange this money for some copper coins for ordinary use, and the rest can be stored in our pawnshop, of course, the guest officer can also choose to exchange it for gold, so it will be easy to carry a lot!" ”
"Can it be exchanged for gold? Does it cost nothing to exchange gold? Zhang Qiang asked suddenly.
"It doesn't cost anything, it's just that if the next time we exchange gold for copper coins, we need to charge a small fee......"
"Small expense......" Zhang Qiang knew that this small cost was definitely not low, but now he can't take care of it so much, it is only right to see the money earlier, here in this profiteer, his heart is more and more bottomless......
"That's okay, the shopkeeper helped me exchange 10,000 yuan for gold, and the rest for copper coins, oh yes, the shopkeeper, you don't care about sending it, we came out in a bit of a hurry, and we didn't bring a car......"
"Haha, it's easy to say, it's easy to say, as long as the guest officer is in this Chang'an City, we will be responsible for sending it to the house!"
Zhang Qiang breathed a sigh of relief, looked behind the counter, and didn't know how this store was so rich.
"That's okay, just do it, the shopkeeper go and prepare, we won't delay your business!"
"Hahahaha, don't delay, don't delay, the guest officer will rest for a while, and it will be time to load the car, and I will trouble the guest officer to count the ...... together"
Four thousand pounds, more than 20,000 catties and close to 30,000 catties of copper coins, just counting in the backyard made Xiaodong dizzy and dizzy, and in the end, it was a direct and consistent point, and I don't know if the heavy string was worn by this profiteer.
After the counting, immediately afterward, several carts were used, which pulled Xiao Han's old house in Chang'an, and fortunately, the copper coins were covered with rags on the top of the box, or if they didn't take the mountain-like money through most of Chang'an City, swaggering through the market, and maybe how many peeps it attracted!
The good hands brought by Zhang Qiang were all excited, and someone had already rushed home to inform him of the good news.
When all the money is far away at the door, the family has been waiting at the entrance of the alley for a long time, rubbing their fists and preparing to experience the feeling of moving money and hand cramps!
Unexpectedly, Zhang Qiang, who was tired and half dead after loading the car, felt that he was too tired to unload the car, so he directly took a copper coin from the car and handed it to the guy who came to deliver the goods.
Horses, you take away, the car, we bought it, it's so rich, it's so capricious!
Fortunately, the man has seen the world in this kind of place, and the Lord has done this.
Took the money with a smile and arched his hand at Zhang Qiang, this is to lead the horse back with a few subordinates, just a few cars, don't say that Zhang Qiang gave money, even if he doesn't give money, what can he do? Knowing where they live, it's worth a thousand dollars!
When the guys were gone, Zhang Qiang and the others couldn't help laughing loudly, and the auxiliary soldiers who went together were even more happy and all jumped onto the cart, as soon as the cloth was lifted and the box was opened, the piles of yellow copper coins were so beautiful!
This is their future house, their future field!
"Wealth is not exposed, wealth is not exposed!" After silently reciting it several times, Zhang Qiang stopped the ecstasy in his heart and began to think about how to transport the money back to the fiefdom.
Just when Zhang Qiang re-mounted the horse and was about to go back to Xiao Han in one go, the guy who came to deliver the money to the door had also returned to the pawnshop, and the guy quietly came to the ear of the fat shopkeeper who was sitting on the low couch drinking tea, and said: "Shopkeeper, I'm back, you told me to see it clearly, they entered a Hou Mansion, the place is quite raw, and the big characters of Xiao Mansion are hung on the plaque!" ”
"Hou Mansion...... Surname Xiao? It's still a guest. The fat shopkeeper squinted and thought for a moment, and then said slowly: "Wouldn't it be the man from Sanyuan County who has been in a lot of trouble recently, Xiao Han!" ”
"Whoever he is! Tell Boling Cui directly that the young master is not enough, we don't take any risks, and we get a lot of money in vain, why not! Oops......"
As soon as the guy finished speaking with a happy face, he was slapped on the head heavily! The guy almost went underground......
"Shopkeeper, why are you beating me, oops......"
The fat shopkeeper shook his hand and glared at the guy, and said hatefully: "Stupid! Rats' eyes! Is our head still short of money? After so long, why can't you keep your eyes open?
How much has Xiao Han, a man from Sanyuan County, stirred up since he came out inexplicably? In less than a few months, he has gone from a small soldier that no one has heard of to the position of the founding marquis, not to mention his fame and connections in the army! Although his reputation hasn't been very good lately, how old is he? Characters like this can only be socialized, not enemies, do you know? ”
"What about the Cui family?" The guy covered his head and asked weakly.
"Shao Dong, hmph, if he doesn't get to the position of the head of the family for a day, he will have a little more risk, and he will only send someone to reply to him in a while, and he won't know if it was the money that the people on that side came to raise it! When he arrives at the position of the head of the family, he will ask our family to break the rules for him! ”
