Chapter 109 Disillusionment

"Did I hear it correctly? One million?"

The boss sneered, shook the golden finger in his hand and said, "I can only give you ten thousand at most for this thing."

Su Rui frowned and said, "How much does it cost per gram? You didn't even weigh it before you just quoted the price?"

"This thing is worthless. If I give you 10,000 yuan, it's already much higher than the market price."

The boss greeted the burly man who just came in with a smile after saying nothing, and said politely: "Mr. Alga, what do you want to pawn today?"

The burly Arga easily took out a silver bracelet from her black backpack.

How come he, a grown man, still has a bracelet? It belongs to a family member?

He only has 10,000 yuan, so he seems to be a poor person.

As Su Rui thought about it, the boss picked up the bracelet and looked at it carefully. He made the sign of the cross with a bright smile and said, "One hundred thousand."

Alga waved her hand and stretched out her hand, motioning for him to take it and bring the money.

"One hundred thousand?!"

Su Rui hurriedly stopped the smiling boss and said dissatisfiedly: "I only have 10,000 yuan, why can his silver bracelet cost 50,000 yuan?"

This difference is not that big, it is a full difference of 0!

Just because he is a regular customer? Isn’t this bullying?

The more Su Rui thought about it, the angrier he became. He shook off Jackie's hand that gently pulled his sleeve and said, "Boss, business requires integrity. You can't exploit me like this just because you're young."

As soon as the words came out, Arga and the boss had the same look, as if they had seen something strange, and they were confused and surprised.

After a few seconds of silence, Sophie stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, my sister has been weak since she was a child. She has never been out and doesn't know the world. Boss, we have accepted this deal."

Although Su Rui was puzzled, Sophie shook her head slightly and had to endure her doubts. After the transaction was completed, she walked out of the door with the heavy bag of gear gold coins in her hand, muttering depressedly.

"Didn't the boss say that gold is not valuable? It turns out that the money in this area is made of gold."

"Where are you from? You don't even know this?" Angel felt embarrassed following her.

Su Rui ignored her look of disgust and looked at Sophie with confusion and questions on his face.

Sophie explained: "I once read in "World History" that most of the 25th District is in the machinery industry, and they don't love gold, they love silver, so here, gold is not valuable, and silver is the most valuable.

valuable."

Su Rui suddenly realized: "It means that I took my most precious thing and came to a place that is not suitable for his value! Sister Sophie, why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known, I would rather be hungry and smelly."

Don’t suffer this loss.”

"Don't blame Mrs. Sophie, it's you who interrupts others and doesn't listen to them." Angel defended excitedly.

Sophie glanced at her, gently took Su Rui's hand and said: "I see that you are very hungry, and we are penniless and it is really difficult to move. To meet our urgent needs, this is the only way."

Although that is what he said, Su Rui felt depressed when he thought about the difference between ten thousand and one million.

Living in a luxurious house, wearing beautiful clothes, eating big meals...all gone.

When Su Rui turned around with the money in frustration, he happened to see Loris standing away from the stone pillar, and thought to himself: "Luo Daoduo should be rich -"

"That's my money too." Loris's heartfelt words reached Suri's ears coldly.

"Cheapskate!"

After Suri snorted softly, ignoring the strange looks in Sophie's, Angel's and Jackie's eyes, he pulled Sophie across the street and entered a clothing store with a heavy gear gold coin on his back.

An old lady greeted me with a smile and asked politely: "What style of clothes do you need?"

This attitude, this smile, and the feeling just now are completely different.

Su Rui politely replied: "It's chilly in autumn, so you should choose something warm."

The old lady familiarly led them to the rack of new autumn clothes and said with a smile: "These are new autumn clothes. The weather is cold in the autumn nights, so you need to keep them warm."

Su Rui took a look at a white sweater, glanced at it, paused suddenly, and slowly put it back.

Eight thousand!

Sophie and the others obviously noticed the price, looked at each other, and silently put the clothes back.

The old lady is a business person and is good at observing words and emotions. She understood immediately without revealing anything. She smiled and said: "By the way, there are some old models here, but they have been out of stock. I don't know if there are any styles you like.

"

Once I heard what she meant, it was a broken bone.

Su Rui smiled quickly and said: "As for clothes, keeping warm is the most important thing."

The old lady took them to the innermost corner and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I haven't sorted it out yet. You can just pick a few pieces, one thousand pieces."

Suri can understand that all these outdated and unsellable goods are piled into a box.

Who makes them poor? They can only buy these.

At this time, the jingle bell suddenly rang, and as the door was pushed open, a little girl in a white coat walked in.

"I'm sorry, you have to pick it first." When the old lady saw her, she dropped a word and immediately greeted her respectfully: "Miss Katis, how can I help you?"

The little girl named Katis glanced at Suri, frowned, and covered her nose with her index finger. Although she didn't say anything, her expression said everything.

Suri turned around nonchalantly and picked up a bright red leather jacket from the box. Jackie also started rummaging around.

However, Sophie and Angel didn't take action for a long time. Su Rui looked up and saw the two of them frowning and finding it difficult to make a move. He smiled and said, "Let me help you match."

With that said, Suri rummaged through the box without any concern, looking for suitable ones for them enthusiastically. Jackie, a grown man, casually picked out a suitable pair of black pants, a black T-shirt and a black jacket.

Suri helped Sophie buy a warm series suit, but Angel was too dissatisfied with it and finally chose a semi-warm series.

There wasn't much in stock at first, but at the end of the selection, Su Rui couldn't even find anything he could barely wear.

Sophie came out after changing, and saw Su Rui standing still, her eyes falling on the box, and she said clearly: "Suri, why don't you wear my clothes, I am about the same size as you."

Su Rui laughed a few times and said, "Sister Sophie, you look good in this outfit. I'm used to being rude and can't wear something so gentle."

"Are there still such poor people in the 25th arrondissement? Don't even have money to buy clothes?"

Katis walked up behind her at some point and smiled contemptuously.

Su Ruiquan pretended that he didn't see or hear, and looked directly at the old lady and said: "Old lady, look, we have chosen so many items, can nine thousand gear gold coins be okay?"

The old lady smiled kindly, nodded and said: "They are all old models, just nine thousand, it doesn't matter."

When Katis saw that she was ignoring him, his eyes were half-squinted, and while turning to leave, he ordered: "Alaya, send the clothes to Karin City, and give her my last set of clothes, be sure to——"

"Let her put it on, or you know the consequences."

I will practice tomorrow morning, but my body can’t hold on, and it’s another day where I can’t type normally.
