Xia Xi put the dim sum back on the plate and asked with a smile, "how much?"
The shopkeeper made a gesture of six, "six hundred Liang."
With that, he stares at Xia Xi's look.
"Deal!"
Xia Xi is ready to respond.
On the contrary, the shopkeeper was in a daze. He negotiated with the chef, and the maximum was 800 Liang. The reason why he offered 600 Liang was that he was afraid that Xia Xi would raise the price again. Unexpectedly, she agreed.
The chef was also stunned, and then asked uncertainly, "madam, you can hear clearly. It's 600 Liang."
"Hear me clearly. But I'd like to ask the shopkeeper to do me a favor. "
The shopkeeper answered quickly, "you say."
"I'm not very familiar with the drugstores in the county. I want to ask the shopkeeper to help me find one. The old and the young are honest."
"This bag is on me..."
The shopkeeper patted his chest, "not only the old and the young are not deceived, but I can also help you sell at a good price."
"Thank you, shopkeeper."
The chef can't wait to stand up, "let's go quickly, so that we won't be late. There's something wrong with it."
There were so many people in the restaurant that the shopkeeper couldn't follow him. He ordered people to prepare two carriages, one for people and the other for bears. He called out some strong men to go straight to Weijia village with ropes and covers.
In order to avoid suspicion, the chef let Xia Xi and his wife sit in the carriage. He sat outside and urged the driver to hurry up all the way.
Weijia village is so quiet that there is no one walking around. Everyone is scared by the roar of the bear, so they dare not come out.
So no one saw two carriages passing by the village.
At the foot of the mountain, where the carriage couldn't go any more, the chef told the man to tie the horse to the tree and lead the man to follow Xia Xi to the mountain.
He was panting, sweating, and his legs were weak when he finally got to the place. When he saw the big bear lying on the ground, he took a breath. It was too big, much bigger than he thought.
The guys who followed were also very surprised. Although they knew it was dead, some of them were afraid to come forward, for fear that the big guy was not dead yet. It was enough for them to give them a shot.
"I've seen it. I'm dead long ago."
Xia Xi said, leading Qi'er forward.
When they saw that the bear was motionless, they all braved to come over, tied up the bear's four legs, and then used two thick sticks to pass through. With all their strength, they reluctantly lifted up and walked unsteadily down the mountain.
Walk for a while, rest for a while, walk for a while, rest for a while, wait until the carriage side, a few guys tired almost collapse, strong to support the last bit of strength, put the bear on the carriage, staggering on the ground, breathing heavily.
The chef was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. Seeing that the rest was almost over, he urged them to go back as soon as possible.
It took two hours to go back and forth. When we got back to the restaurant, the guests had already left.
The shopkeeper looked anxiously at the door of the restaurant. Seeing the shadow of the carriage, he immediately told the man to open the door of the backyard and let the two carriages go in directly.
"Lao Zhao..."
The chef jumped down neatly with a happy look on his face. "We bought this bear. It's worth it."
Bear in the carriage, even if the use of things to cover, the shopkeeper can see a big lump, listen to him say, can't wait to go, lift the cover things, see the bear's head, but also take a breath, "so big?"
The chef followed, "I didn't expect it. I was surprised when I saw it."
The shopkeeper looked at the bear with good eyes and stammered, "no, I didn't expect it."
The chef took a look and saw Xia Xi standing in the distance. He pulled the manager's sleeve. "Lao Zhao, is our price less?"
Such a big bear has more than 300 catties. It can make a lot of money by selling meat, not to mention bear paws.
The shopkeeper is also guilty of taking back his eyes. He has been a shopkeeper of a restaurant for so many years because of his good faith in business. Now, he looks at the big bear again. If it's spread, they're really bullying people.
He lowered his voice. "What do you say?"
"Round it up?"
The shopkeeper's eyes are wide open, "too much?"
One thousand Liang, the shopkeeper is a little distressed.
"What are you afraid of? I can earn several times just by those bear paws."
The chef is full of confidence.
Shopkeeper's hesitation.
Xia Xi has led Qi'er to come forward, "you two, I don't know when this bear will be slaughtered, that bear gall..."
The shopkeeper's brain was bright, and an idea came out at the moment. He immediately turned around, "madam, take a rest first. I'll go to ciqing hall to find someone, and I'll be back soon."
Xia Xi nodded, "please the shopkeeper."
Shopkeeper's eyes, Chef immediately with Xia Xi Niang two to sit in the house.
Qingci hall is not far away. Two blocks away, the shopkeeper's face is full of joy. When he sees the shopkeeper of the medicine hall, he comes to him step by step. "Brother Qin, good thing, great thing."
They had known each other for more than ten years, and the manager Qin had never seen him like this before. He asked with a smile, "what's the good thing?"
The shopkeeper waved to him, "come here with your ears!"
Shopkeeper Qin put his head together and said something in his ear.
"Seriously?"
Shopkeeper Qin shouts, and everyone in the medicine hall looks at it.
"I can still cheat you. It's in my restaurant."
"I'll go and have a look!"
With these words, shopkeeper Qin had already come out of the counter and was about to walk out, but he was stopped, "wait a minute."
"And baby?"
"No, honey, it's just that we have to discuss the price."
Shopkeeper Qin didn't understand, "shopkeeper Zhao, what do you mean?"
"That bear is sold by my relatives. It can't make people suffer."
Shopkeeper Qin looked him up and down, "shopkeeper Zhao, do you want the lion to open his mouth?"
"Screw you. It's not my stuff. I'm not so big about it. She's a woman. It's not convenient for you to talk about it. I'll talk about it for her. You can just take the bank note and watch it. Just take it back."
Shopkeeper Qin nodded, "OK, how much do you want to sell?"
"How much do you give?"
Lowering his voice, shopkeeper Qin inquired about the size of the bear, hid his hand in his sleeve and stretched it out.
The shopkeeper also held out his hand, "no, it's too few. If I hadn't been friends with you for many years, I would have sold so many pharmacies in the county to your house?"
With that, he also drew a number.
Shopkeeper Qin shook his head and added some more.
Two people you come and I go, finally agreed on the price, three hundred Liang.
Hand apart, Qin shopkeeper went to the accounting room to pay the silver, with the shopkeeper came to the restaurant. When I saw the bear on the carriage, I knew the value of my business. Now I didn't hesitate. I handed the silver ticket to the shopkeeper and told him, "please be careful when your man slaughters. Don't touch what I want."
"Don't worry."
The shopkeeper also went to the accounting room with the banknote and paid 800 liang of silver. He took it to find Xia Xi. Give her the money, "that's a thousand and one hundred Liang. Bear gall sold for three hundred Liang. This bear is really beyond my original imagination. I'll give you another 200 Liang. "
