Chapter 14: Buy, buy, buy, the God of Wealth comes to your door

"It turns out to be Mr. Xu San. I've heard of your name for a long time. Two days ago, we hunted a big white tiger in the mountains and peeled off the skin. Mr. Xu San, take a look and see how much it is worth." Li Da did not expect to meet Xu San here. This man was famous for his shrewdness.

Being recognized, Xu San was not at all surprised. He just smiled and said, "I heard a while ago that a man-eating white tiger appeared in the East City Mountain. Many people wanted to hunt it but couldn't find it. I didn't expect it to fall into your hands in the end."

Xu San unfolded the tiger skin as he spoke. The entire white tiger skin was spread out, almost occupying half of the front hall.

Xu San looked at the intact tiger skin with a hint of surprise in his eyes, "How did you kill the white tiger? How could its skin remain intact?"

Li Da was about to speak when he heard Su Ying impatiently say, "Just tell me how much silver this skin can be exchanged for."

Xu San looked up at Su Ying. He recognized her as a woman. In Chu, women could also get jobs in the government, but there were very few of them. He smiled with interest and said, "One thousand taels, Xu will make a friend."

Su Ying had never done business with anyone before, and Xu San looked very shrewd, so he would never give his ideal price right away, so one thousand taels was definitely too low.

Su Ying squatted down and picked up the tiger skin silently.

Seeing her like this, Xu San smiled and said, "It seems that the official is not satisfied with the price Xu gave."

Su Ying stood up and said expressionlessly, "You also know that this tiger skin is very rare. You are not afraid of dying if you offer one thousand taels. Since you are not sincere, I will find another pawnshop."

Li Da felt that one thousand taels was not a small amount, but seeing Su Ying's confident look, he did not say anything.

Su Ying turned around without hesitation with the tiger skin on her back. Just as she was about to leave the pawnshop, Xu San spoke again, "Three thousand taels, just consider it as Xu making a friend."

Su Ying curled her lips slightly, turned around and put the tiger skin on the table, "Deal."

"Do you want silver bills or..."

"Three hundred taels of silver notes, and the rest in cash."

Li Da's eyes widened when he heard this. Two thousand seven hundred taels of silver, that was a lot of money. This female evil spirit was really skilled and brave, she wasn't afraid of being targeted.

Xu San didn't ask any more questions and directly asked someone to bring the banknotes and silver to Su Ying.

"Thank you very much."

Su Ying took the silver and left the pawnshop with Li Da.

Outside the pawnshop, Su Ying handed three hundred taels of silver to Li Da, "10%."

Li Da held the banknote and forced himself to suppress his excitement, fearing that his mouth would be too wide and Su Ying would look down on him.

"You shouldn't take so much silver. The road to the Northern Wilderness is still long." Li Da kindly reminded Su Ying.

Su Ying smiled indifferently, "Anyone who dares to steal my things has either not been reincarnated yet, or has already been reincarnated."

Arrogant!

"Give me half an hour. I need to buy some things in the city."

Li Da was a little hesitant. Now that Su Ying had money in her hands, what if she ran away...

"I want to run, can you stop me?" Su Ying directly exposed Li Da's thoughts.

Li Da's eyes twitched, he couldn't stop it!

Since I can't stop her, I can only do her a favor.

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the city gate in half an hour. If you run away, your husband and children will have a hard time."

Su Ying didn't want to waste time, so she turned around and went to the busiest commercial street.

"Dim sum, freshly baked dim sum." Su Ying passed by a dim sum shop and was instantly attracted by the sweet aroma.

She walked over to the snack shop and licked her lips.

The shopkeeper came forward with a smile and said, "Sir, how about trying some? Our shop is famous in the city."

Su Ying pointed to the crispy fried peach cakes on the counter and said, "Come and try some."

"Hey, wait a moment."

The boss cut some peach cakes and handed them to Su Ying.

Su Ying put it directly into her mouth. The peach pastry was very crispy, and there was something unknown sprinkled inside. It tasted particularly delicious.

"I want two of this, and this, this, never mind, just pack them all for me."

A quarter of an hour later, Su Ying had sold out all the snacks in the snack shop.

The shopkeeper was so happy that he sent her, a big customer, away without even showing his teeth.

Su Ying walked into a dead end holding a big bag of snacks. When she came out, the snacks in her hand were gone.

When she came out, she asked the shopkeeper where the rice shop was, and when she came out of the alley, she went straight to the rice shop.

Su Ying's eyes widened as she looked at the white rice in the shop. White rice was a hot commodity in the doomsday supplies and had become the best trophy for all camps. She had only seized some from the enemy after winning the battle. After eating it a few times, she could never forget the taste of that white rice.

"Boss, is there any cooked rice for me to taste?"

Who wants to taste the rice they buy? The shopkeeper wanted to refuse, but when he saw Su Ying in her official uniform, he swallowed his words of refusal and said, "Sir, I cooked this year's new rice at noon, and there is some left in the pot. If you don't mind..."

"If you don't mind, give it to me."

Su Ying took the bowl from the shopkeeper and ate up all the rice in the bowl in no time. She still felt unsatisfied.

The sweet and soft white rice is really fragrant!

"I'll take all the rice, no matter how much it is."

The shopkeeper thought he had misheard, and only came to his senses when Su Ying directly asked him to load the goods.

The news that an official had cleared out all the snack shops and rice shops spread quickly throughout the streets. Many shop owners sent people to wait in front of their shops, hoping that the God of Wealth would come to their door.

Su Ying did not disappoint everyone's expectations and went on a shopping spree. She basically bought out everything that was edible and useful.

Looking at the few hundred taels of silver left in her hand, Su Ying walked into the pharmacy again. There were not many Chinese medicines in stock in the storage space, so she thought it would be better to have some in case they were useful.

However, she couldn't buy out all the medicine in the pharmacy, after all, many medicinal materials were still very expensive.

When she came out of the pharmacy, she had less than 100 taels left in her hand. Su Ying couldn't think of what to buy, so she just walked away.

When she passed by the cattle stall, she couldn't help but walk in.

Not long after, she walked out with satisfaction and walked towards the city gate.

"Princess Qi, please stay."

Su Ying paused and looked back, she saw a hooded man standing behind her. The wide hood covered his face, so she couldn't see his appearance clearly.

"Playing tricks, if you have something to say, just say it."

The other party paused for a moment before saying, "Princess Qi has done a great job. I have already passed your message to the eldest prince. The eldest prince said that as long as you get the job done, he will immediately send someone to take you back to the capital."

Su Ying looked at the other person calmly, but her mind could not find any memory of the person in front of her. Could it be that she had memory loss because she had traveled through time?
