Chapter 137 Negotiation
Shen Qi got on the carriage, held his wife's hand and asked in a low voice: "Why do you suddenly want to help that woman? Aren't you the one who hates me being close to young women?"
Xu Wanrou glanced at her mother-in-law secretly, blushed a little and pinched him secretly to remind her: "Mom is still here, and when will I stop seeing you getting close to women? Don't talk nonsense."
Shen Qi smiled helplessly: "Okay, I'm talking nonsense. You haven't answered why I want to help that strange woman?"
Xu Wanrou helped the strange woman, naturally because she saw that her mother-in-law was a little soft-hearted, and husband, you have no thoughts about that woman. However, she would not say this, but said: "That woman is so pitiful, we can Just help me."
Shen Qi squeezed Xu Wanrou's hand and said dotingly: "You are kind-hearted, but that woman is scheming at first glance. You told her that we are not rich people, but she still forced us to save her." she."
Obviously, Shen Qi already had a lot of opinions about Mu Nanzhi at this moment.
Xu Wanrou was naturally happy to see this happen, but what she said was: "Mr. sir, don't blame that girl, she just regarded us as the last straw."
The corners of Yu Xiaoxiao's lips curved slightly. This little son of hers, whether before or now, has a thick filter on Xu Wanrou, his wife. He always feels that his wife is simple, unscheming and kind-hearted. In this regard, she I often silently lament that my youngest son is still a fool.
But apart from being in front of his family, Shen Qi is not stupid at all outside and is quite smart.
Soon, the so-called principal arrived. He was dressed in light and eye-catching clothes, very charming and alluring. It was also the first time for Yu Xiaoxiao to see the brothel madam.
Shen Qi shook his head and said, "Madam still thinks too highly of me. I can't get these things out of you. Why don't you ask me to take him back?"
Shen Qi turned to look at his wife and then said: "I hope madam can give me some money. If I can afford it, I will redeem the girl's life. If I can't afford it, please take the girl away. I will definitely do it." Don’t stop it.”
This was the first time that Hua Niang saw a man who could carry things so clearly. She couldn't help but glance at Shen Qi, and her smile became more sincere: "I am a smart man, he does things so cleanly and decisively."
Naturally, Hua Niang was not willing. Although taking her back could serve as a warning to other monkeys, to be honest, this person's appearance could only be considered average. Even if she trained him, she would still have to spend a lot of money. She might as well discuss it later. The price allows you to get your money back in one go.
She was wearing a crimson smoke gauze skirt, with the skirt open wide, revealing her snow-white jade neck, and her round shoulders were looming, while the rest of her body was well hidden under the clothes, swaying as she walked. She is charming but not gaudy and cliché. She is a great beauty who still has charm.
Shen Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Mrs. Miao, I'm just short of money and somewhat self-aware."
Shaking her head, she brought back her wandering thoughts. Looking at the beauties coming one after another, Yu Xiaoxiao was a little starry-eyed. They were so beautiful and had temperament and charm. This was no better than the ones she saw through videos in her previous life. Is the beauty pretty?
Shen Qi was taught by Yu Xiaoxiao not to look down on women. When he saw someone approaching, he let go of his wife's hand, got off the carriage and waited for the person to approach. Then he clasped his fists and saluted: "I've seen Madam, I'm just a passerby. I don’t have much money in my family, but my heart is soft and I want to save others, so I hope my wife can make it easier for me.”
I tried hard to suppress the smile that was about to overflow, and I was muttering to myself, should I spend money openly, or should I go in secret?
Shen Qi said frankly: "It's you who promoted me."
But when she thought about her own image, she didn't dare to imagine what it would be like for an old lady in her 60s to go to a brothel, and she immediately gave up the idea of spending money to go there openly.
The more Yu Xiaoxiao thought about it, the more she became a little bit more agitated, but she didn't know if there was a legendary young man inside, who was also an essential figure in the legendary brothel.
"Master, please don't say that. The price is not right, how can we still negotiate~"
Hua Niang frowned slightly, and her eyes could not help but make people feel distressed. Her soft and gentle tone made people feel good about her: "This master is joking. You are much nobler than lowly people like us."
Yu Xiaoxiao seemed to have opened up a new world. She had been in ancient times for so long that she had never thought of going to a brothel. Brothel is the place where the heroines in all novels are famous.
This time she selected a total of 18 yellow-flowered girls. Because their looks were slightly different, she and Ren Yazi paid half the price, and finally bought these 18 girls for 450 taels. In total, one girl cost almost 20 taels. Fifteen taels, now let alone making a lot of money, she still wants to try to see if she can get her money back.
Brothels and brothels are a regular business in this era. Is it okay to go and see for yourself?
"nature."
Hua Niang pondered for a moment, then quoted a high price: "What do you think of five hundred taels?"
The flower girl looked a little ugly, the price was too low, it was only this price to buy a daughter by herself.
This brothel madam is not like the one shown on TV, wearing a red dress with big peonies, which is very gaudy.
The flower lady looked at the person in front of her. She was in her thirties or forties, with the elegant temperament of a scholar, and her clothes were not flashy. Then she looked at the carriage and the people on it. The two women in the carriage were also dressed in the same style. The main thing is simplicity, there are no expensive accessories on my head, my wrists are empty, and the carriage is the kind of bargain that can be bought everywhere.
This is definitely not because of Yu Xiaoxiao, but because she is worried about the world's ability to accept it.
If she hadn't remembered that this was in public, Yu Xiaoxiao would have laughed more obscenely.
Hua Niang was not polite to Shen Qi and said cheerfully: "I heard from my subordinates that you want to redeem that girl's life. Is this true?"
Hua Niang didn't beat around the bush: "You look like a scholar at first glance, and I would be happy to redeem her. But I don't know how much you can offer. After all, this is not a charity."
Hua Niang already knew in her heart that she would not be able to make a big fortune this time. Although she was a little disappointed, she still smiled on the surface without showing any signs of it.
But Shen Qi was unwilling to discuss it under such a strong sun, and directly revealed his lowest price: "To be honest with you, madam, fifty taels is the limit of what I can afford. If you are willing, I will do it for her." If you are not satisfied with the redemption, take her back. The sun is scorching now, so don’t let her get sunburned."
Shen Qi could naturally see that the price was unacceptable to the flower girl, and he felt relieved that he could finally get rid of this trouble.
The flower girl was a little reluctant: "Master, why don't you add more, and you can take this girl away."
Shen Qi was unwilling, and the two of them were at a stalemate.
Who let the girl run away this time was the one with the worst appearance among the 18 girls? Hua Niang felt that it was not worth taking her back to kill the chickens and scare the monkeys. Moreover, the girl didn’t seem to be a peaceful person, so she took her back and said Maybe I still have to run...
