Xianjin didn't wait for the clerk to ask, and spoke first: "I haven't agreed yet, how dare you cut my gold! - Call your manager over!"
The guy was distracted and his attention immediately shifted from the small stone in Xianjin's hand to the gold.
The young clerk's fighting spirit suddenly went off the charts. He turned over, bent down, and took out a triangular stand from under the counter. He looked at the words on it with his fingers fiercely: "Look carefully! Anyone who has concerns about gold in the gold shop can verify it for themselves! If the verification is true, Tang's Gold and Silver Shop will never trade with counterfeiters! If the verification is false, the clerk will be fired on the spot and will have to compensate the customer for twice the amount of gold jewelry he brought!"
Running a gold and silver shop does require drastic measures. Once you are deceived, the losses caused are unimaginable.
Moreover, the bosses who can open gold and silver shops are generally extraordinary.
Xianjin said "Oh", and glanced at the crowd of people watching the fun. He decisively reached out and took back all the gold jewelry he had brought from the counter: "I just arrived in Beijing and don't know the rules. Please don't blame me!" Xianjin bowed and retreated: "I will go back and check it carefully, so as not to make any more mistakes!"
Xianjin walked out very quickly.
The guy snorted, and the jade that he had just hurriedly touched suddenly appeared in his mind - good things are different, they feel warm and smooth, and except for the marks of wear on the edges and corners, the rest of the jade is as smooth as if it was oiled!
The clerk smacked the jade in silence and savored it for a while. He wanted to ask about the small piece of jade, but the girl had already gone far away.
The waiter sneered in his heart: the thin girl's accent doesn't sound like a Beijing native, and her face is unfamiliar, I have never seen her before; although she looks pretty, her clothes are old and rustic, and she has no jewelry or makeup on, looking shabby; all she shows are old gold jewelry that are plain and heavy - she is most likely a country girl from a merchant's family in the south.
A regular customer who missed the excitement poked his head in: "Eh? What happened?"
The waiter waved his hands in disapproval, "Manager Zhao, it's nothing! A dishonest maid from the south stole the master's gold jewelry to exchange for money - I just found out!"
The regular customer gave him a thumbs up and said, "Hey! You are the one! If there is any problem with the gold, I will definitely not hide it from you!"
The waiter liked this and let a regular customer cut in line with a smile.
After a busy day, the waiter forgot about what he had done in the morning. As night fell, the sound of gongs and drums came from the corner. The waiter twisted his sore shoulders, and seeing that there was no one around, he quickly took a special horsehair brush to clean the gold shavings on the table - don't underestimate such a small thing, after years of accumulation, there must be a small gold bead as big as an eye boo!
Once he had saved up enough gold beads, he would be able to hire his cousin who worked in a wealthy family's mansion.
Alas, when others work as maids, they can even steal the master’s gold and sell it.
But my cousin is an honest girl. She has been a maid for so long, but she has not taken advantage of the master's family at all...
The waiter thought of the thin maid who came in the morning, and was stunned with envy: If that girl could find a small gold shop and sell all those things, then she wouldn't have to worry about food and drink in this life, oh no, in the next life, right?
"Mule!" The exclamation in the hall brought the waiter back to his senses.
The waiter looked up quickly and saw that it was the manager, Xiao Tang. He smiled so hard that his eyes were not visible, and then he walked out from under the counter with a servile manner, and walked to the manager in two steps.
"Did you cut a piece of gold this morning?" Manager Tang's tone was unclear whether it was good or bad.
The guy was a little nervous: "Yes, it's me, it's not the store's rule..."
Before he could finish his words, the young manager Tang sighed softly, and the waiter suddenly felt a long, dull pain on the back of his neck, and then he fainted.
I don’t know how long it took, but I felt a chill on my face. He opened his eyes with a start, only to see darkness in front of him.
He's blind! He was blinded!
The man screamed!
"Shut up!"
With a roar of disappointment, the light finally returned to his eyes.
Oh, he wasn't blinded by the beating, his head was just covered with a black cloth...
When he regained his sight, the man squinted subconsciously. When he was able to open his eyes, he could see clearly how magnificent the house he was in was: the whole room was made of huanghuali wood, and the antique shelves were filled with porcelain, white jade ornaments, and corals... Next to the antique shelf stood an old man in his fifties, and next to him sat a stunning woman on the armchair.
Wait, woman?
The guy's eyes returned to the woman.
Haha, another woman who is trying to curry favor with a rich and powerful man.
She is so beautiful, but she is with an old man with gray hair...
"Lower your head!" the old man gritted his teeth.
The woman glanced at the old man indifferently, her expression indifferent: "Master Hu, I'm afraid your house rules should be made more strict."
The "Master Hu" mentioned by the woman quickly bowed and said, "Yes, yes, yes! This old minister will definitely discipline him strictly to correct the family tradition!"
The woman turned her head, pointed her toes at the clerk, and said in a deep voice: "Today, is there a girl with a dignified appearance, outstanding temperament, and well-proportioned figure who would like to come to your counter to exchange gold jewelry for silver?"
The clerk knocked his head on the ground before he realized - the "Mr. Hu" that the woman was talking about, wasn't he the big boss behind their gold and silver shop!
The legendary Minister of Revenue!
This big boss used his wife's dowry to open the gold and silver shop.
It's so fitting for the Minister of Revenue to open a gold and silver shop...
The guy figured it out, his legs went weak, and he went from kneeling to sitting down.
"I'm asking you a question! Say it quickly!" Lord Hu gritted his teeth.
The fellow kept his head down, struggling to speak tremblingly: "Yes, it's me... Oh no, it's me, oh no, it's me!"
"You cut her gold, and what did you take out of it?" the woman's voice was deep.
