Chapter 379 - Pottery, Pearls, Gold, and Shells

After asking Jia She carefully, he found out that the pottery, pearls, gold, and shells were originally carried by Merchant Hu from the Western Regions. Because there were money patterns on the shells, he was very pleased to see them.

Therefore, as soon as it entered the market, it was highly sought after, rapidly appreciating from one or two taels of silver per shell to over twenty taels of silver per shell, becoming a true ”golden shell.”

It was said that Merchant Hu’s inventory of over a hundred pieces has already been sold out. Currently, these pieces of pottery, pearls, gold, and shells could be said to have a price but no market.

Fortunately, Jia She found another way to buy a large number of pieces of pottery, pearls, gold, and shells, which was an astonishing 500 pieces!

"My dear nephew, the other side wanted to partner up with Rongguo Mansion, so they offered 15 taels of silver." Jia She said, dancing excitedly, "You know that at present in the shop, it can be worth at least 28 taels of silver, and if we acquire these 500 gold shells, it will be a net profit of more than 6000 taels of silver!"

Nowadays, there are only over a hundred golden shells on the market, which have suddenly been released four or five times. It was probably right to halve the price, right?

Jia She also noticed that Sun Shaozong didn't think much of it. He thought that he didn't appreciate the profit of thousands of taels of silver. Then he said, "What they mean is that if I can reduce the amount, I might get ten taels of silver. At that time, if we pay five thousand taels of capital, we can make a net profit of nearly ten thousand taels of silver!"

Looking at this, Jia She probably wanted to get a large rebate and estimate the price offered by the other party, which was six or seven silver, or even five silver.

If the acquisition price was like this, there was a real possibility of making a profit. Of course, provided that there were only these 500 pieces of inventory on the market.

And what Sun Shaozong suspected the most was precisely this part!

Just seeing Jia She's excited appearance and questioning that he was deceived might not wake him up, but he might become angry.

Therefore, Sun Shaozong didn’t speak up directly but smiled and said, "This is indeed a good deal, but with these five thousand taels of silver, I can’t be the master. I still have to go back and discuss it with my brother, so that we can discuss it.”

Jia She thought the same. His son-in-law had to make up his mind about a large amount of money. But when he thought of his lovely daughter, he had a clear idea. He said, "Well, let's talk to him first when you go back. I'll go to him when I have time to talk about it in detail!"

Just then, Yuanyang came to him and said that Jia Zheng was back. The Old Lady asked Jia She to go back and discuss the matter of going to the National Uncle's house to make amends. Sun Shaozong took the opportunity to leave and get away, leading Xue Pan back to Wangjiang Tower.

When Jia She was walking back, he was thinking about pottery, pearls, gold, and shells. When he saw Yuanyang's waist, her hips were plump and turned upward. When she was moving forward, she constantly raised arcs at the bottom of her skirt. Every shape made it a little difficult for him to control himself.

Jia She hurried a few steps. He wanted to walk with Yuanyang, but he couldn't bear the scenery at the bottom of the skirt. He followed her with a smile and said, "How about asking my mother for you to marry over when I earn the money for the pottery, pearls, gold, and shells?"

Yuanyang's body stiffened, but immediately she quickened her pace and flew into Old Lady Jia's yard.

“This little hoof is still ashamed, hahaha.”

Qiu Yunfei immediately turned around and exclaimed, "What are you waiting for? Close the door.”

At this moment, his younger brothers finally knew who the newcomer was. Faced with fierce men like Sun Shaozong, who were truly enemies of a hundred, how would they dare to shout?

So the two, who had just climbed up from the ground, hurriedly came forward and closed the door.

Sun Shaozong then asked, "Have you heard of pottery, pearls, gold, and shells in recent days?”

“Pottery, pearls, gold, and shells?”

Qiu Yunfei scratched his head and said with some uncertainty, "It seems like someone has mentioned this thing before, but I can't remember exactly what happened.”

“Then go and inquire...”

Sun Shaozong was about to tell him to inquire about it and see if there were any other dandies involved besides Jia She.

Who knew that as soon as the conversation started, the wealthy slave next to him asked with a radiant expression, "Do you also want to buy pottery, pearls, gold, and shells?”

Sun Shaozong was stunned and said strangely, "Why do you know about this?”

“To be honest with you...”

The slave said proudly, "There is a steward in our mansion who has a way to buy this thing. I also spent 37 taels of silver to buy 12 of it and kept them at home waiting to make money.”

It was indeed a scam!

Sun Shaozong waited to ask again, but the slave took the initiative to sell and said, "Your Excellency, if you want to buy, you should make it early. In the past few days, the price has changed day by day. I heard it has already been shot to five taels of silver per coin.”

“Five silver per coin?”

Sun Shaozong questioned, "Isn't it said that it has already risen to twenty-eight taels?”

“Hai!”

The wealthy servant sighed and said, "That's the best-looking item you're talking about. Where can we servants afford to play with it? The best-looking item is at this price! I heard there are also average-looking items on the street, and you can buy one for a few coins.”

Tch!

Sun Shaozong originally thought that those scammers were just trying to cover up a few illiterate dandy kids by creating these pottery, pearls, gold, and shells, but now it seemed that this matter was much larger than expected!
