Chapter Two Today's Evening

Since you are not a playboy, it is not easy to survive in this era.

Chen Shou was empty-headed. Thinking of the hairpin Lu'er gave her, Mrs. Su's family was rich and a widow, and most of the family's great business belonged to her.

The cost of her personal maid is likely to be used by Mrs. Su herself. The reward for Lu'er will definitely be of great value.

Take out the hairpin from your arms, take a closer look at the texture and pattern, and Chen Shou put the hairpin back into his arms.

As Chen Shou walked, he looked around and suddenly saw a slim young woman in front of him asking for a price in front of a stall, and then went up to ask:

"Laojia, this girl, ask where is the jewelry store nearby?"

This slightly abrupt questioning made the young woman frown. She turned around and saw Chen Shou's appearance, and her anger disappeared immediately.

The boy was so handsome that he stood there, especially wearing coarse linen, which made people feel a little closer.

The young woman blushed and said, "Walking a hundred steps forward, there is a jade pavilion, which is a jewelry shop."

Chen Shou smiled and thanked her, and walked forward. Sure enough, there was a Fei [New     ] Cuixuan.

On the vermilion shelf, there are a wide variety of jade wares, shining with brilliance.

Guys in this kind of place are accustomed to looking at people's clothes. When they see that although Chen Shou was wearing rags outside, a trace of precious brocade sweater was exposed inside.

Looking at his appearance again, the young man immediately showed a clear look. He realized that he was a rich man and deliberately dressed up like this to find a stimulating and novel feeling.

Chen Shou took the young man's expression into his eyes, and after a little thought, he realized it in his heart, and secretly thought in his mind that this misunderstanding was a good thing for him.

The young man nodded secretly and bent over to meet him, "Ye, what jewelry do you want to buy, this young master? This shop is a shop on the Liangzhou City Bar. Just look at it, even if you look at it, it's all real."

Chen Shou remained motionless and said lightly: "I'll take a look first."

Chen Shou walked around and found several hairpins of similar styles. After asking for the price, the guy smiled and said, "Young master has good eyesight. These are all good jades. The flesh is delicate and the workmanship is exquisite. If you give it to a beauty, you will surely get what you want, hehe..."

"Stop talking nonsense, just say how much."

The guy's eyes rolled, "Each branch only collects fifty taels of silver."

"Um..." Chen Shou nodded, and did not say to buy it, nor did he say not to buy it.

Seeing that he was about to go out, the guy quickly said, "The lowest price is thirty taels."

Chen Shou said oh, stepped out without looking back.

I don’t understand this era at all. It would be strange if I go to the pawnshop rashly and don’t be slaughtered.

After visiting the jewelry store and understanding the price, I felt a little confident.

After walking a few steps forward, there was a pawnshop. Chen Shou deliberately pulled out a little of the brocade woven fabric inside and walked into the pawnshop with arrogant steps.

After entering, he took out his hairpin and said directly: "Twenty-five taels, don't bargain, do you want it or not?"

The shopkeeper of the pawnshop looked at him, whispered his mouth, and tickled his tongue. Just as he was about to lower the price, Chen Shou was about to leave.

The shopkeeper quickly stopped him and took the hairpin in his hand and looked at him, "You young man, you are really anxious."

Chen Shou laughed and said, "This little money is small, but my time is precious. I don't have time to talk to you. Your combination can deceive some rich nouveau riche, how can I fool me? The thing I handle is not a thousand or eight hundred. I bought this thing at the time when I bought it for fifty taels, and I probably got cheated a little, so I don't care. When I met a generous person, you could sell it for fifty taels. To be honest, I ate flower wine to give it to the girl today, and I was a little tight, otherwise I could get you cheaper? How about it, do you want it?"

When the shopkeeper saw his style and his underwear without any cover, he thought that he was a playboy like the jewellery shop's guy.

He laughed and said, "Just be a friend. How about taking away something from the young master in the future? Why do you come to visit the shop?"

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Chen Shou threw it casually, and the shopkeeper quickly and carefully caught it.

"Come here, I'll get twenty-five taels of silver for this young master,"

Chen Shou frowned. If he really went to drink flower wine, he would definitely take out a ingot to reward the girl. Unfortunately, he didn't have the leisure time and it was too inconvenient to spend it. He waved his hand and said, "Give me some scattered silver, don't tattoo silver."

The shopkeeper didn't know what quirks these young men had, so he just agreed with a smile and asked the friend to get the broken silver.

When I walked out of the pawnshop, I had twenty-five taels of silver in my arms. Although I was less than two kilograms, I felt heavy, and this was a huge sum of money.

For the Chen family in the past, it was enough for the whole family to have a few years of chewing. Of course, for Mrs. Su, it is estimated that a meal is not enough.

"The original Chen Shou died of eating soft food. Unexpectedly, my first pot of gold also started with eating soft food."

When Chen Shou thought of Lu'er's charming figure and face, he clenched his fists secretly. How could a real man live in depression for a long time? No matter what era this is, he had to make a difference.

After setting a lofty ambition, Chen Shou touched his stomach and felt a little hungry when he looked up and happened to see a small wine shop.

"Woman, let's have a plate of flowers and hairs in one."

The waiter put a white towel on his shoulder, bent over and asked with a smile, "Celebrity, what is this flower-hair in one?"

“Peanuts and edamame.”

"This... peanuts are a rare thing. There are really no small shops, and even villains have never heard of them. There are edamames. Do you want to cook or steam them?"

Chen Shou nodded, thinking that there was no peanut. This must have been not after the Ming Dynasty. I don’t know which dynasty was tampered with.

The clothes of the people on the road obviously have some of the Tang Dynasty's rhymes, especially the women of Daqi, which are very eye-catching.

Only when you have the chance to meet a scholar may you resolve your doubts.

"Forget it, I'll only cook chicken and a pot of good wine."

The waiter smiled happily, "Okay, the guest officer sits for a while, and the wine and food will come up now."

After a while, Xiaoer brought a roast chicken wrapped in oil paper and a small pot of wine.

"Pi Pao Pao Pao Pao", this wine is really hard to drink, but unfortunately I can't make wine, otherwise I could make a small profit.

Although he inherited Chen Shou's memory, this kid did not read poetry and books, and he didn't even know the current trend of the world. He only knew that this dynasty was called the Great Qi Dynasty, and the royal family had the surname Zhao.

What the hell is this Great Qi Dynasty? It is obviously not a historical dynasty that I am familiar with. I can’t use historical knowledge to pretend to be a charlatan.

Where to go next?

Chen Shou sipped bitter wine in a small sip, thinking: Although the Chen family is in a down-and-out and shabby way, they always have to go back and take a look. No matter what dynasty it is, the Central Plains regard the clan as the main focus.

The rain will be as wide as possible, and the rootless grass will not moisten.

After raising his head and drinking it in one sip, Chen Shou took a pack of roast chicken, sighed, and discharged a piece of silver from his sleeve, "Waiter, look for money!"
