C6 Earning Money Is the Way to Go

Su Xiaoyi finally found the pawnshop in the market. She tidied her dress before walking in.

The pawnshop owner looked at the business and happily asked Su Xiaoyi what she wanted to be.

Su Xiaoyi took out a cloth bag from her bosom and then passed the jade bracelet to the pawnshop owner through the small window at the counter. The pawnshop owner took it and squinted his eyes to take a look. He touched it and a shrewd light flashed in his eyes. Then he pretended not to care and said, "This bracelet doesn't seem to have a good water head and has average taste. At most, I'll give you an estimate. It's only worth one tael of silver. "

The pawnshop owner saw that Su Xiaoyi was not wearing very good clothes. She did not look like a rich person and definitely did not have good eyesight. He deliberately lowered the price. In fact, the owner of the crotch shop could tell that this bracelet was of good quality with just a look. It was clearly of the upper grade and was worth at least five taels of silver.

Unfortunately, he was wrong. Su Xiaoyi sneered in her heart. As the saying goes, one does not cheat and one does not sell. This boss also lowered the price too low.

So Su Xiaoyi directly took the bracelet back and walked out without looking back.

When the boss saw Su Xiaoyi leave, he immediately became anxious and hurriedly shouted from behind, "Don't go, don't go. We can discuss the price again. "

Su Xiaoyi only stopped when she heard the boss call her from behind. She walked back to the pawnshop.

"Give me a real price. " Su Xiaoyi said very straightforwardly because she did not intend to keep the bracelet here forever. Sooner or later, she would have to personally redeem the bracelet for her mother, but the owner of this crotch store was a little too black-hearted.

The owner's eyes rolled and said, "At most two taels. Any more and I will lose money. "

Su Xiaoyi looked at the cunning face of the boss, picked up the jade bracelet and said, "This bracelet is planted delicate and transparent, the color is fresh and pure, the shape is light, the material is thick, and there are no cracks at all. That two taels of silver of yours to send me away is bullying me for not knowing what it is, okay?"

The boss did not expect that although Su Xiaoyi looked young, she was not the kind of person who could be easily fooled. He quickly smiled and said, It seems that you are an expert. Then what price do you think is more appropriate?

Su Xiaoyi stretched out a hand and said, "Five taels. "

"Five taels?" The boss was a little hesitant. He really did not want to miss out on this business. One should know that In a small county like this, high-quality jade bracelets were hard to come by.

Su Xiaoyi saw that the boss did not respond and continued to say, Six taels.

"Ah, customer, your. . . " The boss panicked, "Customer, please let me think. "

Su Xiaoyi remained unmoved and continued, "Seven taels. "

"Six taels it is. Deal. Customer, please wait. I will go to the back and bring the silver to you. " Seeing Su Xiaoyi continuously raise the price, the boss gritted his teeth and stomped his feet. He quickly went to get the silver for Su Xiaoyi.

Six taels. This price was within Su Xiaoyi's expectations. It was still alright. It could be considered as a price that satisfied her.

Su Xiaoyi weighed the silver in her hand. This was the first bucket of gold she had received after coming to this society. Her future life would be completely dependent on this silver.

After returning home, Su Xiaoyi handed the silver to her father. Her father was still a little hesitant about the matter of growing sorghum. After all, no one had ever tried this before. If it failed, then there would be no harvest this year. Su Xiaoyi saw the uneasiness in her father's heart and encouraged him, Father. I feel that you also do not wish for us and mother to be bullied for the rest of our lives. If you do not dare to take this first step. . . Then what should we do in the future?

Father looked at Su Xiaoyi and felt that his daughter's words had given her great courage. For some reason, ever since his daughter fell into the water and woke up, Although she still looked the same, his father always felt that Su Xiaoyi seemed to have changed into a different person. In the past, Su Xiaoyi was very timid and always had a timid look. But now, Su Xiaoyi's eyes were full of spirit, even though she was just a little girl. Her father also felt that what Su Xiaoyi said was very reasonable. He solemnly nodded his head.

It was spring now, and it was the planting season. His father had turned over all the Zhuang families that he had planted in the past and sprinkled the newly bought sorghum seeds.

The other villagers did not understand his father's actions and came over to persuade him. After all, they had been planting crops for generations and no one had ever planted anything else in this land.

Faced with other people's doubts, his father simply shook his head. He believed in his daughter. The others saw that there was no use in persuading him, so they could only let him do as he pleased.

Su Xiaoyi also followed behind her father to help. She carefully planted the seeds. These seeds were the hope of their family.

Her mother's embroidery was very good. The embroidery of flowers, birds, fish, and insects were all lifelike. When her mother had nothing to do, she would do some needlework at home to earn some money. But Su Xiaoyi felt that her mother was using too much of her talent.

Helping the neighbors sew clothes or something, she could only earn some money to buy salt. If she bought some high quality embroidery and cloth, cultivated beautiful clothes or fans, and sold them at the market, she would definitely sell them for a good price.

After getting rid of the money to buy seeds, there were still four taels of silver left for pawning the bracelet. Su Xiaoyi thought for a while and asked someone to bring back some embroidery and plain fan noodles from the county town and give them to her mother.

One had to say that the hands of the ancient people were really very coincidental. Her mother's hands flew up and down. Su Xiaoyi could not take it in her eyes. In the blink of an eye, an exquisite fan was formed in her mother's hands. She took the fan and looked at it a few times. She could not help but click her tongue in wonder. This was much more beautiful than modern embroidery. Although the speed of the embroidery was faster than that of manual labor, This was a bird that her mother had embroidered with a needle and a thread. It made people feel as if they were about to fly up from the fan.

This kind of unparalleled embroidery, coupled with her mother's temperament and that pair of white and tender wings that were over-working made Su Xiaoyi feel that her mother was definitely not a girl from a small family. But she also could not understand why a girl from a big family would be living such a tough life with her father here.

Seeing Su Xiaoyi looking at her curiously, her mother smiled and asked: Why is Xiaoyi staring at me like this? Is there anything wrong with my face?

Su Xiaoyi mischievously said, "Because mother is very pretty, so I was stunned when I saw her. "

"Ghost Fairy. " Mother gently tapped Su Xiaoyi's forehead. Su Xiaoyi really liked this kind of time when she was with mother. In modern society, because of the original intention of working, her parents were separated from her. She had always been very independent and did not let her parents worry about her. But it was very rare to have such a happy time here, in this place, She found a long-lost motherly love and laid it on her mother's knee. She felt that at this moment, her life was very real.
