Chapter 18： People do not kill for themselves, sell deer

The difference between the attitude of the shopkeeper is too great, I don’t know Dong Chenghu can’t react, and his thugs are also stunned. I looked, but couldn't see anything.

Gu Shuixiu ignored her and put the knife down from the shopkeeper's neck.

"Well, I'll sell the deer antler to you, and you can tell me what the price is, including... the sealing fee." A slyness flashed in Gu Shuixiu's eyes.

The shopkeeper hurriedly went to the counter to find a bag of silver, and said pleadingly: "Little ancestor, do you think this silver is suitable? No, we can talk about it."

Gu Shuixiu squeezed her purse, nodded with satisfaction, handed the deer antler in her arms to the shopkeeper, and then winked at Dong Chenghu.

Dong Chenghu was a little embarrassed, but when he thought of the situation of the two, his heart sank, and he quickly came to the shopkeeper and gave him a slap, which immediately stunned him.

The four thugs reacted and were about to struggle again, Gu Shuixiu frowned, and finally couldn't overcome the hurdle in her heart, so she walked up to them and squatted down.

"You must also know that your shopkeepers have done a lot of unsightly private activities! I will not hide from you, I will not look at such people and let them go. You can do it yourself. "

Although these four people listen to others, they must have done a lot of bad things. Now that she has warned them in advance, it is out of her control.

Gu Shuixiu picked up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in the pharmacy, and immediately wrote an informative letter, and then gave a little beggar two coins to send the letter to the county government.

After doing all this, Gu Shuixiu took Dong Chenghu out of the pharmacy quickly.

Dong Chenghu still didn't understand the reason why Gu Shuixiu did this.

"How do you know that there is something wrong with the shopkeeper, Shuixiu?"

Gu Shuixiu looked around, and saw that there were no talents who whispered the ins and outs.

It turned out that they had just entered the pharmacy when Gu Shuixiu saw several sacks piled up in the corner. Although the sacks were very solid, the smell in the air still exposed those sacks What's in it - salt.

Salt belongs to the control of the imperial court. When I reviewed the materials purchased by Shuixiu, I inquired clearly. The entire Linhai County is only sold in those places, and the stocks in those stores are not yet in the pharmacy. How can a pharmacy store so much salt?

The only explanation is that the shopkeeper is smuggling salt, which would be a death penalty if the court knew.

If it was just like this, Gu Shuixiu would not meddle in these nostalgic things, but the problem is that the shopkeeper is not greedy enough. The shopkeeper of this pharmacy must be brought down first.

Dong Chenghu was noncommittal after hearing this. Although he is a kind and simple and pragmatic mountain person, he is not a hunter to see bloody, not to mention that the couple is now being watched, since you are either dead or not I die, Dong Chenghu doesn't want them to suffer.

"Where are we going next?" Dong Chenghu pointed to the sika deer on his shoulders. Now that there is such a big noise selling deer antlers, it's getting dark after so long. I don't know this point. Where is the game to be harvested, and more importantly, Dong Chenghu was afraid that he didn't kill the shopkeeper, and he would get his revenge at that time, so he hurriedly sold the prey and took Gu Shuixiu home.

Gu Shuixiu thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to Zhang's house, since the housekeeper Zhang said last time that we should send it over if we have game, let's go for a walk, anyway, the things are good, they If we don't accept it, we can sell it elsewhere."

Dong Chenghu had no better way but to listen to Gu Shuixiu.

Aunt Li opened the door, she was stunned for a moment when she saw Gu Shuixiu and his wife, and then said coldly and strangely, "What's the matter with you?"

Gu Shuixiu chuckled and said, "Aunt Li, we came back to sell wild boar last time. Last time, Butler Zhang told us that we had game and sent it over. We got a sika deer this time. Do you know if you accept it?"

Aunt Li's eyes widened in surprise when she heard the words. Last time, the couple was obviously dressed like a beggar, but she didn't recognize it after picking it up.

Gu Shuixiu gave her another ten coins for errands. For the sake of money, Aunt Li smiled a little sincerity, and immediately asked Dong Chenghu to carry the sika deer in, and ran to Butler Zhang herself.

After a while, Butler Zhang and Aunt Li appeared at the back door.

Butler Zhang's gaze shifted from the sika deer on the ground to the couple Gu Shuixiu. There was not much emotional fluctuation on his face, but his heart was turbulent. The clothes are gone, and the complexion is much better than before, and it is indeed capable.

Thinking about this, Steward Zhang became more and more kind, and said warmly: "You sika deer just died, right? It looks very fresh."

Gu Shuixiu took the opportunity to say, "Butler Zhang, what you said is that there is a deer whip in this sika deer. We haven't taken it out yet. Do you want to buy it together?"

Gu Shuixiu did this on purpose. If they had cut the sika deer to take out the deer whip, the sika deer would definitely not be able to sell for a good price, and they would have to sell them all to pharmacies. The price is fair, but they ran into a shady shop, so Gu Shuixiu stopped. If Butler Zhang didn't agree to buy her together, she would cut the deer whip on the spot. If Butler Zhang didn't mind, then the price would be different. .

The housekeeper pondered for a moment, then understood Gu Shuixiu's intention, and admired her more and more, "If the girl is doing business, no one else will have anything to do! Since the girl speaks so clearly, we also Let’s be more refreshing, I bought them all together, but what about the price?”

Gu Shuixiu looked at Dong Chenghu, Dong Chenghu was a little nervous, but she still spoke with Gu Shuixiu's encouragement.

"We count the meat with the belt, and it's fifty cents per pound, but the deer whip should be counted separately. We will charge 10 taels of silver for the deer whip, and we will charge the rest of the meat as much as possible."

The housekeeper Zhang nodded, the price was a few cents cheaper than the ones outside, Dong Chenghu didn't have a lion's mouth, and the price of the deer whip was also very fair. More importantly, the deer whip hasn't been taken out yet. It's very fresh, but it can be used to stew soup immediately, and maybe you can get a lot of money.

Butler Zhang asked someone to weigh the sika deer, and the total was 185 jin. He didn't deduct the weight of the deer's whip, but gave him 192,250 in total.

Gu Shuixiu secretly gave Aunt Li fifty cents before leaving.

Then Aunt Li was so happy that she could barely see her eyes, she said that next time she had game and sent it over, she would run errands for them and so on.
