Domineering and Lovely

Chapter 65 Selling Fur, Buying Clothes

By mid-noon, Lei Che finally saw that the city in this other world was indeed much more prosperous than the countryside. There were many inns and stores on both sides of the street, and there were many hawkers setting up stalls in front of the stores.

After thanking the groom, Lei Che led Chen Xi, who seemed to have lost his soul, into the flow of people going to the market.

Chen Xi has never seen such a big scene, this is a big girl sitting in a sedan chair—for the first time, her little paws are pulling a corner of Lei Che's robe, Chen Xi is just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, look, look, That look, curious about everything.

When he was not married before, his family members would go to the city if necessary, but they never took him with them. It was always the two favored younger brothers who had this opportunity, and he could only lean against the stone wall and watch helplessly. He watched them leave happily.

No wonder those two lazy brothers get so excited every time they say they want to go to the city. It turns out that there are so many interesting things in this market, such as jugglers, toy sellers, dazzling people, and all kinds of snacks. , pancakes, meat buns, candied haws, the tangy aroma kept drilling into his nostrils, and Chen Xi couldn't help but swallowed his saliva.

Raising his big eyes, he took a sneak peek at the tall and burly Lei Che beside him. Seeing that his grandfather was not looking sideways, he had no intention of stopping and resting. Stretch your legs to keep up with Lei Che's pace, and pass by those delicacies that make him salivate.

It's not that Lei Che didn't see Chen Xi's small actions, but right now they don't have any money in their hands. The most urgent thing is to sell the furs and baskets in their hands in order to get money.

Taking the little guy to a large tailor-made clothing store, Lei Che looked up and walked in without hesitation.

After stepping into the door, an idle guy immediately greeted him. He was smiling all over his face at first, but after seeing Lei Che and Chen Xi's poor-looking clothes, he immediately elongated his face and replaced it with a different one. humanlike.

With a face full of disdain, he stood there with his arms folded, the guy's nostrils were almost up to the sky, and he sneered mercilessly: "Hey, I said, what are you doing? Are you here to beg? A clothing store is not a place to take in homeless people, and it doesn't mean that cats and dogs can come in to join in the fun?"

From childhood, before Lei Che crossed over, Chen Xi had always lived under this kind of gaze. Now that they encountered him again, Chen Xi trembled all over, and hid behind Lei Che in fear, even though the guy spoke ill at him, he didn't dare to speak back, and he didn't dare to show his head again.

Don't look at Chen Xi's teeth and claws in front of Lei Che these two days, like a aggressive little hen, it's because he knows that the master will protect him and will not hurt him. In front of others, Chen Xi is actually inferior, is timid.

Lei Che has seen a lot of this kind of guy who looks down on people with a dog's eyes. He didn't even bother to have ordinary knowledge with him, and he didn't even bother to raise his eyelids. , Came directly to the counter where the shopkeeper of the clothing store was.

Unloading the burden on his shoulders, Lei Che opened it in front of everyone without hesitation, raised his eyes slightly, and growled in a hoarse voice: "Do you want to take it?"

The shopkeeper had a sallow face and a weak figure. A middle-aged man who is not familiar with the wind, when Lei Che approached suddenly at first, he was also taken aback by the powerful man in front of him, but after seeing the fur in the baggage on the counter, the shopkeeper's small eyes full of calculations A ray of light suddenly flashed in the middle.

Three pieces of fox fur, one piece of grizzly bear skin, one piece of deer skin, and several pieces of wild boar skin are all peeled completely and are of high quality. If they are used to make coats or leather boots and sold to officials and officials, they will definitely earn a lot of money. Pen.

The shopkeeper secretly got a little excited, as if he had seen countless banknotes fly into his pocket, but before he could reply, the guy who was ignored by Lei Che rushed over aggressively, facing Lei Che It's a sarcasm that hits the head and covers the face.

"Hey, you poor bastard, don't you want to rob? This is not the place you should come to, get out quickly, don't dirty our place." After finishing speaking, seeing Lei Che's face was serious and silent, the guy was furious , jumped up and was about to drag people with his hands, but the impatient Lei Che raised his arm to block it, and as soon as he pushed, he wailed invincibly and fell to the ground.

Even if Lei Che was made of clay figurines, he would still be quite angry. Since this store doesn't welcome them, then they should go to another store.

Thinking of this, Lei Che wanted to put away the burden without saying a word, but the shopkeeper who reacted grabbed his arm.

"Don't be upset, good man, don't be upset, good man. It's because the clerk in the shop is ignorant. I'll deduct his wages today. Please don't hurt the good man because of this. If the good man wants to sell it, how about we discuss the price of these furs?"

Listen At these words, Lei Che slowly loosened his tightly knit brows, retracted his big hands, and had no intention of turning around and leaving.

Seeing this scene, the shopkeeper heaved a sigh of relief, then glared at the short-eyed guy, slapped the table and shouted angrily: "What are you still doing paralyzed on the ground? Why don't you rush to meet other customers? Do you want this month's salary?"

That guy is a bully, so he naturally didn't dare to offend his parents, so after sneaking a glance at Lei Che, he got up and rolled away.

Only then did Chen Xi dare to poke his head out from behind Lei Che, turned his head, put his hands on his hips, and secretly spat at the guy who was fleeing in a panic. Did you teach me a lesson?

After the eyes-obscuring people were chased away, the person in the showcase showed a smile and started to negotiate the price with Lei Che.

"Well, I'll give you two liang of silver for the three fox skins here, and one liang of silver for each of the bear skin, one deerskin, and several wild boar skins, adding up to a total of five liang of silver. How about it? ?"

The shopkeeper looked like a businessman, and while talking, secretly observed Lei Che's reaction.

Hearing that it was five taels of silver, Chen Xi, who was standing behind Lei Che, let out an unbelievable exclamation, his big eyes widened, and then as if realizing his gaffe, Chen Xi hurriedly raised his little paw to cover his mouth, Didn't dare to make any more noise.

These five taels of silver can catch up with the income of ordinary farmers for two years. Chen Xi didn't have much hope for these furs at first, because in his cognition, the villagers rely on planting crops and harvesting. Those who earn money from the crops have worked so hard to plant several acres of land. After deducting the family's rations, the rest can't be sold for much money.

He didn't know anything about hunting, and he wasn't too excited to see his grandfather carrying his prey back every day, because he always thought that these furs couldn't be sold for much money, maybe it wasn't as much as his income from selling small baskets, but now he knows He was dead wrong.

When the shopkeeper heard Chen Xi's exclamation, the smile on his face deepened, and he was about to pile up his wrinkles. He thought that the brash man in front of him had never seen the world like Chen Xi. He can buy the fur at the lowest price.

"Five taels of silver? It seems that the shopkeeper doesn't have the sincerity to do business. That's fine, I won't sell this fur, and I won't sell all the furs I get in the future to your family!" Lei Che seemed to be Enraged, he raised his hand to pack his baggage, but was pressed down again by the face-changing shopkeeper.

"Don't, don't, isn't this negotiating? If the hero thinks the price is unreasonable, let's negotiate again!" Unexpectedly, this reckless man knows the market, and the shopkeeper can only make concessions, with a smirk on his face and a good voice I am so angry that I am sorry.

I originally wanted to make a fortune, but it seems that I can't do it. I heard from this reckless guy that he will come to sell it in the future, so he will raise the price and attract a long-term supply of goods! The shopkeeper's small eyes rolled, and he immediately took it to heart.

"How about this, I will give you more money, what do you think of the hero?"

Hearing this, Lei Che remained expressionless and remained silent for a long time, unable to tell whether he agreed or disagreed.

Okay, after doing business for so long, I actually met an opponent. The shopkeeper lowered his eyes, gritted his teeth and hesitated for a moment, then growled as if he was going all out: "Then add five hundred characters, no more! No matter how much more, I will lose money, but it can be said that if the hero still has furs of this quality in the future, he will definitely sell them to our house. If the hero agrees, the price will be considered a deal. Pay with one hand and deliver with one hand!"

Knowing that the shopkeeper had reached his limit, Lei Che's heavy head finally nodded imperceptibly, letting the anxious shopkeeper who was waiting for the result heaved a sigh of relief. .

"Don't count the money for the shopkeeper. I want to pick out two sets of clothes for my husband. After deducting them in a while, we will settle the bill." Lei Che took the first step when the shopkeeper's subordinates wanted to take the money from the drawer. I opened my mouth.

"Okay, just look at the good guys. Our clothes are famous in the city. The materials are guaranteed to be high-quality. The good guys can choose whatever they want." Hearing this, the shopkeeper was naturally overjoyed, and hurriedly greeted another guy. Come to entertain Lei Che and Chen Xi.

This guy is smart, he took the lesson from the guy just now, so he didn't dare to look down upon others, when he heard the shopkeeper's summons, he immediately greeted him with a smile, surrounded Lei Che and Chen Xi enthusiastically, and opened his mouth Started talking about it.

"I don't know what kind of clothes the customer wants to buy. Are they wearing it now or in two days? What styles and fabrics do they like? I can take the customer to choose a few!" Hearing this, Lei Che couldn't even think about it

. Not wanting to, he blurted out: "All of them, the best quality and the most comfortable material." "

Okay, guests, please go this way." The guy understood Lei Che's meaning, and made a gesture while talking. Respectfully, he walked ahead and led the way, while Lei Che and Chen Xi followed closely behind.
