Chapter 506: Extra Princess and the Shadow 16

Chapter 506 Extra Princess and Shadow 16

"If you want to say that we adults are really infatuated and pitiful, we are already thirty and haven't married yet."

An An followed his words and asked: "Is it related to the aunt I met in the dyeing workshop?"

"Yes! Don't look at our adults' casual clothes, let me tell you, Sir William is from the Earl's Mansion.

The girl ball in the dyeing workshop is named Anna. Her father was also a high-ranking official. The two families are family friends. They grew up together since they were young.

Before the two took the initiative to break through the window paper, Anna's father was suddenly demoted, and the family had to rush to the place where they were demoted.

Anna wrote many letters to Lord William, but she never received a reply. She wasted years and years until she was twenty-five years old, when she got the news that William had already married a wife and had a child. Her parents were seriously ill and were about to pass away. In order to make them feel at ease, she randomly picked someone to marry.

However, Anna didn't know at the time that all this was designed by her parents. Her parents made up and spread this lie in order to stop her from being so depressed. But she didn't expect that the man she married was a scumbag.

After marriage, Anna was often beaten with bruises and swollen face. One time, she was beaten severely. She took a knife and wanted to fight the man desperately. She didn't want to really kill, but lost in the dispute. "

An An puffed up her face in anger: "It's really not worth ruining a life for such a man!"

Yacha sighed: "Who says it's not?

The government judged Anna as manslaughter and sentenced her to fifteen years. But her husband's family was dissatisfied, thinking that the sentence was too light, and found a relationship to transfer the case to the capital city of Lausanne.

It turned out that William didn’t receive any of the letters Anna wrote. After Anna left the capital, William was arranged by his family to go to the castle as a personal guard, and he couldn’t leave Lausanne easily. All those letters were intercepted by William's mother. And told William that Anna had already married and had children. "

Two people who love each other deeply, because of different sides and many misunderstandings, they just missed each other.

An An clenched her small fist angrily: "Uncle's mother is too bad, why did she do this?"

Jingqi: "Obviously! Anna's family was demoted, and the two families are not well-matched. Naturally, William's family doesn't want Anna to come in."

Ya almost nodded: "Yes, but they didn't expect that Anna would go back to the capital for trial, and her husband's family made a big fuss, so they brought the matter directly to the Queen. Naturally, William knew about it.

He visits Anna and the two resolve any misunderstandings. "

The Yamen sighed and shook his head: "I heard that Lord William cried when he crouched in front of the prison with his head in his arms."

A man who is so big and so thick, it can be seen that he has collapsed and despaired to the extreme,

"Later, Lord William ran around everywhere, even asking the Queen. After learning about the cause and effect, the Queen personally sentenced Anna to exile in Maya City for ten years.

Lord William gave up the great future of the capital, broke away from the family asylum, and asked to be transferred to Maya City, just to be closer to Anna.

Many people feel worthless for him, his ability is outstanding, and he was appreciated by the queen, but he gave up his bright future for a female prisoner, "

Although they don’t know much about love at this stage, the two little guys are still moved by the love between William and Anna.

Jingqi said disapprovingly: "Father-in-law said that a capable person will shine wherever he is. Isn't it just ten years? Since he can be favored by the queen, it will be a matter of time before he has a bright future."

Jingqi spoke Chinese, so the government servants naturally couldn't understand her.

An An stuttered and translated for a few people, but the Yacha who spoke just now shook his head in disapproval:

"It's not as easy as you said. Without family promotion, adults will have to work hard for at least 20 years."

An'an doesn't care. In her perception, as long as she works hard, there will be gains, and Uncle William and Anna will definitely get better and better.

In response to this incident, the two children respected William a lot. Regardless of what the world said, in the children's hearts, Uncle William's behavior was like a big hero in a storybook.

But as soon as An An returned to William's house, she began to mess with her business plans. Bring Jing Qi together, and start to play several kinds of nets that she knows.

However, Jingqi was too handicapped, and always accidentally tore off the root of the silk thread. The maid in the mansion looked interesting, and also smiled and asked for help.

After tossing for two days, I used up all the silk threads, and finally weaved one hundred and eight strings.

An An rubbed her numb wrist, looking at the red nets all over the table, she felt a sense of accomplishment.

Jing Qi brought a bottle of medicinal wine: "Stretch out your hand and rub it for you, or you will cry at night when you sleep."

An'an stretched out her hand carefully: "Then be gentle... hiss, it hurts..."

Jing Qi was unmoved, and her palms tightly held An An's wobbling arms like iron tongs.

"Short-term pain is worse than long-term pain. If you don't rub the blood away, you will be sore for several days."

An'an burst into tears in pain: "Woo... I'd rather be in pain!"

…

Although Jing Qi was stared at by An An for a long time afterwards, the so-called long-term pain is worse than short-term pain is still reasonable. After sleeping, the arm pain basically disappeared the next day.

An An rested her chin on the table, blinked her big eyes, stared at the pile of red nets, and asked Jing Qi on the opposite side:

"How do you think we will sell it?"

Jingqi thought for a while: "I have already inquired. These silk threads are sold by the catty. This kind of dyed thread is usually 30 copper coins per catty."

Both of them have no idea about money, Su Wangfu has everything, and sometimes they never know how to bargain when buying things on the street.

An'an automatically understands that thirty copper coins are equivalent to thirty Wen in Daxia. "It's so cheap! Then how much do we have to sell for one?"

Jingqi took out the attitude of doing calculations, and sketched on the paper: "We must first calculate the cost of the goods."

An An immediately trotted out to find a servant to borrow a scale, packed the net and weighed it, which weighed about two catties.

Jingqi quickly calculated on paper: the cost price of a iron is about half a copper coin. The two called it cheap.

An An tried hard to remember how those aunts, aunts and uncles sold things when they were on the street?

…

An An frowned in distress. Thinking about it this way, it seems that selling things is not very profitable! Losing money every day!

"It's too troublesome to bargain, or we can set the price directly, whether you like to buy or not! It seems that no one has ever bargained in the beautiful pavilion opened by my mother, and there are still customers coming every day!"

Beautiful Pavilion is aimed at high-spending people. These people love face, so naturally they will not bargain.

"How much can I order? If it's a bunch of copper coins, the profit can barely be doubled!"

Thinking about it this way, that is, they can earn fifty-two copper coins more. Although the money does not seem to be much, they are still making money!

Jing Qi felt that one copper coin was too low: "You worked hard to make this up, and the hard work is not counted?"

An An felt distressed: "How much is the right amount?"

Jing Qi didn't understand either: "Anyway, we can't just sell one copper coin, or... sell two copper coins!"

In this way, the profit will be quadrupled!

An'an was stunned: "Aren't we too dark-hearted, this...is anyone buying it?"

Jing Qi gritted her teeth: "Didn't it mean that there is no profiteering and no business? Let's sell it first? If we really can't sell it, we will lower the price."

…

The next day, Jingqi inquired about the market, found the location, took a piece of cloth and spread it on the ground, and set up a stall. There was a piece of paper on the side, and the price of the goods was written on it in the big moon language.

An'an listened to the yelling all over the street one after another, and her face was eager to try: "Shall we sell it too!"

Jing Qi was a little embarrassed: "...Let's forget it! I can't shout out."

An An has been familiar since she was a child, and there is no concept of embarrassment at all. She immediately shouted at the top of her voice:

"The most up-to-date net, only two copper coins..."

After studying these days, An'an's Da Yue language is getting smoother day by day.

With this voice, many people around looked over curiously, and they couldn't help being even more surprised to see that the stalls were actually two oriental children.

An An shouted at a girl with blond hair passing by: "Beautiful sister, buy a string of strings, it looks very beautiful on jewelry!"

The girl stopped curiously, picked up a sympathetic knot and looked at it carefully. After staring suspiciously for a long time, she couldn't help but see:

"This thing is quite beautiful, but what is it used for!"

An An saw something interesting, and immediately sold it enthusiastically: "Sister, you can hang it on the jewelry backpack, and there are clothes..."

The girl hesitated and asked, "How much is it?"

"It's very cheap, only two copper coins."

The girl was obviously stunned for a moment, and then simply took out two copper coins from her pocket.

An An was holding these two copper coins, and felt happier than eating honey for the first money she earned through hard work. She circled around Jing Qi cheerfully: "Jing Qi, we made money!"

At this time, several women passed by the stall, and An An hurriedly greeted with a sweet smile: "Auntie, buy strings..."

The conditions of these people were obviously not very good, but in the end they gritted their teeth and bought one each.

An'an took the money happily, thinking that doing business is not difficult!

Jing Qi was observing all kinds of people walking back and forth, but unfortunately he didn't have the language talent of An An, so he could barely understand what these people were saying.

Thinking in my mind, if I want to know the doorway on the streets of Maya City as soon as possible, what kind of person is the most suitable person to ask for information? Therefore, he didn't pay much attention to a thin figure running away in the dark.

Not long after, a neatly dressed seven or eight-year-old boy walked over embarrassedly: "Little sister, how do you... want to sell it?"

"A bunch of two copper coins, brother, buy a bunch?"

The boy lowered his head shyly: "I... I want to buy it back for my sisters at home, and my aunts and aunts who are out of town. I wonder if they like it?"

An'an was even happier when she heard that, this is big business!

She nodded vigorously: "Of course! How much do you want to buy?"

The little boy bowed his head and counted with his fingers for a long time, but he couldn't figure out a specific number. He scratched his hair nervously.

Jing Qi couldn't stand it anymore, "Just tell me how many people you want to give to!"

The little boy scratched his head: "There are too many relatives to count! My father said he would take us back to the ancestral house."

Jing Qi nodded understandingly. After all, in the world he has seen, it is common for some big families to have two or three hundred people at every turn. "Then you can buy more."

The little boy took out a heavy money bag, and the copper coins rattled non-stop: "Then I'll buy a hundred strings!"

An'an and An An were stunned, shocked by the little boy's generosity, but the little boy in front of him was cleanly dressed and didn't look like a bad guy, and all he took were real copper coins. An An attributed this to her good luck.

Both parties pay with one hand and deliver with the other.

As a result, there were only five strings of nets left on the ground, and An An waved all of them to the little boy.

An An was carrying a heavy pocket: "Jing Qi, do you think I am a legendary business genius, possessed by a koi!"

Jing Qi took the cloth and wrapped the bag of copper coins in her hands. Although she felt a sense of accomplishment, what she said was: "I don't mind holding heavy hands!"

After speaking, he was taken aback for a moment, feeling that something was wrong? Before he could figure it out. They were all dragged forward by An An:

"Isn't that Uncle William? Let's go, let's pay back the money from the aunt in charge, and get some silk thread to continue weaving!"

She clenched her small fist, feeling full of strength. What is a sore wrist?

Squinting her beautiful eyes, she began to fantasize. Several years later, the successful richest woman stood in front of the stage, bathed in all kinds of adoring gazes from the audience, and said in a calm tone: "The first pot of gold I earned was from selling nets. ..."

However, what the little guy didn't know was that the little boy who bought all their goods turned around the corner with his bag, the timid expression on his face disappeared, he grinned triumphantly, and his eyes were full of wit.

Half an hour later, a small stall was set up near the intersection of the wealthy district, with strings of red strings hung in a patchwork pattern, the little boy stood in front of the stall, already changed his face, enthusiastic Say hello to the lady passing by:

"The most fashionable accessories in Lausanne, each person is limited to two strings, and only ten cents."

…

William was just passing by and didn't intend to go out of the city, but after An An moved out of Anna, he persuaded himself to compromise,

While passing William's house, An An thought of the poor old man, and went back to get some bread to eat.

Arriving at the rows of warehouses where the female prisoners were serving their sentences, An An counted out 60 copper coins, "This is the silk thread money returned to the aunt in charge."

William raised his eyebrows in surprise. They both lived in the same mansion. He also knew about the two children's tossing and selling things.

An'an nodded heavily, "Yes, did you earn more than two hundred copper coins?"

After speaking, he raised the cloth bag containing the money and shook it. There is a crisp sound between the collisions,

William praised the two children severely to save face, and accepted the copper coins generously.

An An also handed the remaining copper coins to William: "Uncle, we still need to buy silk thread, so we will buy it with the remaining money."

William was amused by her serious appearance: "We are friends. Uncle can give you credit first, and it will be the same when you make money."

"No, my brother will settle the score clearly."

After she finished speaking, she counted with her fingers. They earned a total of 206 copper coins this time, minus the 60 copper coins for the aunt in charge, and there were 146 copper coins left.

A bundle of silk thread is thirty copper coins, so how many bundles can they buy now?
