Chapter 2085

The manager of the fur shop of Yongsheng business is a man with a good appearance in his 30s.

Seeing their clothes, the shopkeeper knew in his mind, "what kind of leather do you want to sell?"

First, take out the six ordinary animal skins. Please give me the price.

The shopkeeper looked carefully and said, "I'll give you two hundred and sixty Liang silver at most for these six skins."

The price is double that of the town.

Tiekui saw that the price of the shopkeeper was still quite fair. He lowered his voice and said, "we also have a white tiger skin."

The shopkeeper is not surprised at all. The ability to be a shopkeeper is not comparable to ordinary people. When he saw tie Kui with the basket on his back and didn't put it down, he knew that there must be something good in it: "please come inside." This tiger skin is good to sell but not easy to get, so it has always been priceless.

Entering the small room, the Iron Tiger took off the basket and took out the skin of the tiger which was wrapped tightly inside.

After the tiger skin is spread out, the shopkeeper nods in secret. Tiger skin is hard to find, and white tiger skin is hard to find for thousands of miles. This tiger skin is well preserved and handled, with almost no defects.

Tiekui asked, "shopkeeper, give me a price!"

The shopkeeper said after a moment of meditation, "two hundred sixty-two." Two hundred sixty-two is a lot of money for ordinary people.

Tiekui smelt the words and smiled: "shopkeeper, you bully me and never see the world. Such a good white tiger skin is worth at least 1, 340 Liang silver in the capital. " He had a classmate's brother who had a garment made of tiger skin. The tiger skin was far worse than this one, and it would cost eight hundred Liang silver.

The shopkeeper was a little surprised. He took a look at tiekui and said with a smile, "I don't know how much it costs in the capital city, but there must be no higher price in Shengjing than we have."

Tiekui said: "this is our father and son in exchange for their lives, less than six hundred Liang do not sell."

The shopkeeper was not angry. He asked all the prices to pay back: "from here to the capital, I won't say the freight, labor and pavement fees. It's just that bandits have been rampant all the way. How dare you sell tiger skin in the capital? Even if you get a high price in the capital, you may not get home safely. "

"Two hundred sixty-two must not be sold. It's too low. We really want to sell it. You can give us a real price. "

The two haggled, and finally the shopkeeper said, "three hundred and sixty-two at most, which is the highest price I can offer. Little brother, if we have more, we won't make much money. " There must be some profits, but they will be less than expected.

Tiekui is still feeling low, but he also knows that the buyers are holding down their prices. Go to another house, not necessarily more than here.

After thinking about it, tiekui asked: "Dad, he said that he would pay up to 362 silver. Dad, what do you think? "

this tiger skin is only one hundred and thirty-four Liang silver at most in the town. Now it can be sold to 362, almost three times more than that in the town. There is no reason why iron tiger does not agree: "yes."

At this time, someone outside said, "shopkeeper, the goods have been loaded."

Hearing this, tiekui suddenly put in a word: "shopkeeper, I don't know where to send this batch of goods?"

"The capital."

Smell speech, tie Kui eye twinkling: "shopkeeper, we happen to be going home, can you give us a ride?"

"Rent a carriage. It's only five days from here to Anshan. Our caravan is slow. It will take ten days to arrive. " Tiekui said a pure Mandarin, and the shopkeeper couldn't find out where he was. But as soon as Iron Tiger spoke, he knew that the father and son were from Anshan.

Tiekui said with a smile: "it costs 20 Liang silver to rent a carriage from here to Anshan. Our whole family's chewing for a year is no more than 45 Liang silver. "

The shopkeeper chuckled, "I thought you were afraid of bandits!" There is no denying that the father and son are trying to save money, but they think it's more safe to follow their caravan.

"Shopkeeper, the people you do business with are not always convenient to others and yourself. Besides, I've given you such a good piece of leather. You can earn a lot of money. "

The shopkeeper thought tiekui was very interesting. He didn't look like a child at all. He then asked with a smile, "they are going to start soon. Don't catch up with them."

"Yes."

At a young age, he is not only intelligent but also knows how to move forward and backward. He has great eyesight. He must be a character when he grows up. Therefore, the shopkeeper is willing to sell tiekui a good: "this money, are you going to want silver or silver?"

Tiekui said, "give us thirty-five liang of gold, thirty liang of silver and six liang of silver." Although I went back with the caravan, it was too eye-catching to bring so much silver.

The shopkeeper was very thorough. He gave thirty-five gold ingots of one or two weights and three silver ingots of ten or two weights. The silver coins were packed in a blue bag.

"In the future, there will be good leather, and I hope you can send it to us to ensure a fair price."

Tie Kui said with his hands clasped: "sure."

Later, the shopkeeper took his father and son and said something about the caravan. The leader glanced at them and said, "follow our orders on the way, or I will drive you out at any time."

Tiekui said hurriedly, "this is nature."

Yongsheng is very famous. Every time their caravan delivers goods, they are escorted. Let alone ordinary bandits. Even famous bandits dare not touch them.

Fortunately, the caravan passed by their County town, where the father and son spent the night.

The next day, father and son went home in the early morning. On the way, I met a butcher's stall. Thinking that Chunni likes to mix rice with lard, tiekui wrapped the cooking oil on the stall in one breath.

It was evening when we got home. Seeing the smoke burning in the sky, iron tiger said with a smile, "it's just in time for dinner."

The door is locked. Iron Tiger knocks on the door and shouts: "Chunxiang, Chunni, open the door quickly."

Chunni ran out of the kitchen and saw the two happy: "Daddy, ADI, you are back at last." She knew that they had gone to Shengjing, and she had been in suspense since the day of departure. Fortunately, they returned safely.

Father and son entered the room, Chunni closed the door and locked it. When ershui comes home to her mother-in-law, they lock their doors at home. Except for those who are very familiar with each other, no other sister knocks on the door.

Looking at father and son, both of them put baskets on their backs. Chunni asked, "what did you buy?"

Tiekui handed Chunni a large bag of things wrapped in oil paper: "this is what you have been thinking."

Open to see is suet, Chunni is not happy: "I'll squeeze it with elder sister now." With that, he took the 20 jin oil and walked out quickly.

Tie Kui smiles.

After dinner, tiekui handed each of the two sisters a small wooden box with a big thumb: "elder sister, second sister, please see if you like it."

Chunxiang's is a pair of lilac earrings, Chunni's is a pair of gourd earrings.

Chunni has been in charge of the family. She has been exposed to silver. At a glance at these two pairs of earrings, Chunni asked, "brother, is this silver?"

Seeing tiekui nodding, Chunni could not help complaining: "brother, you are really, what are you wasting this money for?" That's what they say, but they smile.

Chunxiang was too happy: "thank you, brother." It's the first time I've seen such beautiful jewelry.

In addition to jewelry, tiekui bought a piece of water red fine cloth for the two sisters to make clothes. It's time to prepare new clothes for the new year in more than a month.

It's too late to put everything in place. The next day, father and son went to the village head's house.

First, I solemnly thanked the village head and Tong Shi, and then I sent a red sandalwood colored fine cloth.

At the sight of the material, Tong liked it: "how much is the material?"

"One or two silver." Fearing that they would not believe it, tiekui said, "we came back with the caravan. They often bring goods to the cloth shop, so the price is very cheap. " The preferential price is right, but after the discount, the cloth is also two liang silver.

Seeing that the village head wanted to talk, Tong smiled and said, "I'll take the money for you." This material is not available in the town at all.

Knowing that Tong really liked the material, the village head took a dry cigarette and asked, "tiger, can you bring out seventy Liang silver?"

Without waiting for Tiehu to ask, the village head explained: "the old man Chen's family next door wants to sell farmland, which is ten mu of superior farmland. However, they are more expensive to sell. They need to sell 65 liang of silver for 10 mu of land. " Plus the transfer fee, it will cost about seventy Liang silver.

Iron Tiger surprised, said: "nine Grandpa, can you take me to see this ten Mu field now." It's really a good field, even if it's expensive.

Hearing this, the village head knew that Tiehu could get such a large amount of money.

The ten Mu field is connected and is a good one, and it's a quarter of an hour away from Tiejia village.

After reading it, iron tiger said to buy it.

Old man Chen is waiting for the money. When he hears that iron tiger wants to buy, he immediately goes to Yamen with him to transfer the ownership.

After paying the money, the ten Mu field became Iron Tiger. Holding the ten Mu field wedge, the Iron Tiger's eyes are a little hot. Even if he hunts hard, he will never be safe. With a house and a field, you have security.

He bought ten acres of good farmland in one breath, and the whole Tiejia village was immediately sensational when it was spread. It's said that Iron Tiger must have made a lot of money this time. Otherwise, how could you give such a large sum of money in one breath.

There are also people behind the scenes, saying that the father and son had done something shameful when they went out.

When Aunt Li heard the rumor, she asked Chunni, "what did your father and brother do on their long journey this time?" If you know what father and son are going to do, you may as well refute the rumor.

Chunni said: "my dad hunted a leopard last year. My brother said it would be too bad to sell it in town. If he sold it in Shengjing, he would get a high price. This time, they went to Shengjing to sell this leopard skin. "

"How much silver did you sell?" asked Aunt Li

"Together with the other pieces of leather, they sold for a hundred liang of silver." With that, Chunni said with a sad face: "my father and my brother spent too much money, but they spent more than ten Liang silver on selling some money and buying cloth and jewelry."

Aunt Li thought that the leopard skin she had hunted before sold for 26 Liang silver. She was in no mood at all. I perfunctorized Chunni and went back.

When I got home, I told dad Li, "I knew we sold the leopard skin in Shengjing."

"It's a mess outside now. There are bandits everywhere. They are lucky to meet the shop to deliver goods to the capital. They come back with the caravan. Otherwise, who knows
