Chapter 1072 Changping County Head 29
County Magistrate Zhou was also pulled and pulled by his wife.
The entire Linyi County is not big, with four yards and ten main streets. The street bought by the Changping County Lord is in the Northeast Fang in the North City.
The Lord of Changping was really brainless. He only knew that the cheapest place was there, but he didn't know that once the Huns broke the city, the first thing they robbed was the nearest street in the north city gate. Sometimes he was afraid of reinforcements, so he evacuated after grabbing some, so the shop there was the cheapest.
He also bought the entire street. Apart from saying that there are too many money, it is really hard to describe the heroic move of the Changping County Lord.
In summer, there is still a poisonous fire. Sitting in a ox cart, it feels like sitting in a steamer. As soon as I arrived at the street corner, I heard various hawking sounds outside, which was very lively.
Before I went to the store selling fabrics and jewelry, I bought a few ice bowls to relieve the heat. This summer is too hot. Although there are enough ice in various places in the provinces and their own ice warehouses, the price of ice outside has increased by 30%.
The price of the ice cubes is so good that County Magistrate Zhou feels a little painful.
After drinking a bowl of ice bowls, I finally felt a little cooler, so I got off the car and went to buy fabrics.
Someone stopped him at the door: "Here is a male guest and a female guest. Please invite this adult to the store that specializes in entertaining male guests."
Seeing the shop's guy dressed properly and pointed at a store across the street. County Magistrate Zhou was so amused that when would the store be divided into men and women?
Instead, he told his wife: "I will take my son with me, and my two daughters are only allowed to buy 1,000 taels of silver!"
Mrs. Zhou agreed and brought her two daughters into the store.
County Magistrate Zhou took his eldest son to the opposite store. The waiter at the store opened the thick cotton curtain. As soon as he walked in, he felt the air conditioner coming.
The store is not very big, because the windows are closed and the doors are blocking thick curtains, so oil lamps and candles are lit. In the center of the store, there is a large basin filled with ice.
No wonder it's so cool, it turns out that there is an ice basin.
There are three groups of customers in the store who are selecting goods, all of whom are taking my son and my brother and younger brother.
A guy came over to greet him and saluted: "Greetings to Lord Zhou and Prince Ling."
Linyi County is not big, so it is normal to know the county magistrate. Lord Zhou stood up with the general's belly behind his hands: "It's easy to say! Take out any good things."
The guy knew at a glance that he had always been in this business. He spoke official words and behaved appropriately: "Two guys, let's take a look at the fabric first, please!"
In less than half an incense stick, County Magistrate Zhou knew why ice is so expensive, and there is such a large ice basin here... His sweat was gone, and it was down again.
He didn't dare to say it was expensive. The guests around him were silently picking up goods and shouting them out, thinking that he was a dignified county chief and had no money.
It is only in a more gentle way that it is said: "Things are good things, they are too expensive!" Just a piece of clothing costs thousands of taels of silver. This is not the fabric. It is probably not that expensive to use silver to tie it into silver thread to make clothes.
"Master Zhou, this is Shu Jin." The guy said in a humble manner: "Look at the style and pattern, don't talk about this place, even in the capital, which shop can produce such goods? Don't talk about three thousand taels of silver, even if it is sold for five thousand taels, someone will still want it. And it's unique here, pick one piece and one piece less."
Mr. Zhou shouted next to him: "Dad, this is just this one, this one."
Three thousand taels of silver, County Magistrate Zhou was so big: "Can you... cough cough..."
The word "cheap" is really unspeakable. It seems that I have said it a long time ago that the store of the Changping County Lord never bargained.
County Magistrate Zhou could only say in a roundabout way: "The dog is still young and still growing. If you buy such a good cloth, you may not be able to wear it in two years."
The guy responded: "You can be more generous. If Mr. Zhou grows taller, you can change it to a coat."
"Dad is just this, this is good!" Mr. Zhou kept shouting, making County Magistrate Zhou unable to come to Taiwan.
Seeing that he was short of money, the guy took out another piece of fabric: "Mr. Zhou is good to look at this piece. This piece is a little more elegant, but the neckline cuffs are inlaid with the edges of Shu brocade, which is also very suitable for Master Zhou. Look at the edges of Shu brocade, and the fabric is very quiet and elegant. This piece of fabric is 300 taels, and the edges of Shu brocade are 200 taels."
When County Magistrate Zhou heard this, he immediately touched his beard and said seriously: "Well, this piece is really good." Just five hundred taels of silver, compared to three thousand taels, it is not expensive, not expensive!
Mr. Zhou immediately shouted: "I only want that piece, this piece is not as good as that piece."
"What do you know!" County Magistrate Zhou glared at his eyes. For the sake of money, even his own son would curse: "Now the court pays attention to diligence and thrift. You are wearing Shu brocade, aren't you waiting for your father to be impeached by the censor? That's it!"
This time, Mr. Zhou had no choice but to give up.
The guy immediately asked someone to wrap the fabric and Shu brocade border, and said with a smile: "Do you still have to see the matching crown and hairpin? They are all treasures that can only be found in the Qinling Palace before."
Master Zhou immediately nodded violently, while County Magistrate Zhou was full of bitterness.
After choosing a golden crown that matches the clothes, another five hundred taels of silver was gone. The fan and the pendant on the fan were another two hundred taels...
"Master Zhou, Mr. Zhou is here. The things and bills will be delivered to the mansion together later." The guy gave it respectfully.
As soon as County Magistrate Zhou came out of the cool shop, the heat came to his face and got on the car head-heavyly. Then, one thousand five taels of silver were gone!
Sitting in the car, I saw Mrs. Zhou and her two daughters come back. After pulling off their hats, their three faces were full of joy.
County Magistrate Zhou asked nervously: "How much did it cost?" He was responsible for purchasing, and he spent 1,500 taels, and when a woman spent money, it was even less important.
Mrs. Zhou and her two daughters had a smile on their faces. Mrs. Zhou carefully stretched out a finger: "This number!"
"Oh, one thousand taels, that's okay!" County Magistrate Zhou breathed a sigh of relief. Even if the two daughters were one thousand taels per person, it would be two thousand taels.
"No..." Mrs. Zhou plucked up the courage to say.
"What?" County Magistrate Zhou shouted out immediately. It could not be one hundred taels, that is: "Ten thousand taels?!!!"
After taking the initiative, Mrs. Zhou raised her head: "Anyway, both of my daughters have to prepare a dowry, and all of them will be used as dowry in the future. If you can't bear it, half of the money will be counted as mine!"
County Magistrate Zhou was crying but not crying. Ten thousand taels. Even if Mrs. Zhou was rich and powerful, she could take out her own money, five thousand taels would be enough for him to make up for it for several years.
You should know that it is not easy to be greedy. You have to rack your brains to write your accounts well and take risks.
Now, in the blink of an eye, I have lost my efforts in a few years.
I returned to the mansion and leaned on it. Before I could finish my heartache, I came again.
As soon as he came, he was entangled, crying and laughing, and insisted on asking him to give out the money. I have a concubine daughter who is of the right age and got the post. This time it was a rare opportunity. Maybe someone would like to be attracted to him and would climb up to be the wife of the wife of the wife of the wife of the wife. Therefore, the clothes cannot be worse than the two daughters of the wife of the wife of the wife!
County Magistrate Zhou really couldn't resist it, and two days later he secretly hid himself for his concubine. Well, this time he was really poor and careless.
