The next morning, just as General Cen was about to go out to send his child off, Boss Ye stopped him and handed him a heavy little bag wrapped in a handkerchief.
"The silver I got from selling the leopard skin was forty-two ounces."
Boss Ye was surprised and delighted when he heard this: "So much money?"
"The leather you got is of good quality, and the patterns are clear and beautiful.
“There were no wounds on the back or sides of the leopard skin, it was completely intact.
"Plus, you're lucky, there's a rich family that wants to buy a complete leopard skin.
"Isn't this just like the right time, right place, and right people all coming together?
"It was originally sold for 45 taels, but because someone acted as a middleman, they deducted 3 taels of silver, so the final amount I got was 42 taels."
"That's as I should!" Boss Ye said quickly, "Thank you, old man. This time, I'll just buy a gift for Qingtian's mother!"
"Have you decided what to buy?" asked Mr. Cen.
"Qingtian bought her mother a pair of gold earrings, so I thought, why not buy her a gold bracelet?"
Boss Ye said this with a smile on his face, and he was so happy.
"That's great. Then go buy it today and don't delay it later."
"Don't worry, old man. I'll go right after I send Qingtian off."
After hearing this, Qingtian quickly shook his arm and said, "Dad, wait until I finish my class, then I'll go with you, okay?"
"Okay, Dad will wait for you!" Boss Ye agreed without hesitation. "It's just right for you to help Dad choose, in case Dad has poor taste and buys something that doesn't suit your mother's taste."
"Of course not. Mom will be very happy no matter what Dad buys for her." Qingtian said immediately, "Besides, Dad can choose such a good wife like Mom. How can his vision be bad?"
"Sunny, that's right."
At first, Mr. Cen was quite picky about Mr. Ye, but now he thinks that he is a good person. He works hard and most importantly, he is very good to his wife and daughter.
At noon, Boss Ye went to Qin's house to pick up Qingtian, and then went straight to the silver shop under her command.
The place Qingtian took Boss Ye to was naturally the silver shop owned by Manager Zhou.
When Shopkeeper Zhou saw Qingtian coming from behind the counter, he immediately went out to greet him with a smile on his face.
The owner of the shop opposite also ran out to grab the business.
After coming out, I found that the person who came with Qingtian was not Qin Hexuan, but a middle-aged man in ordinary clothes.
His steps hesitated again, and then he watched Manager Zhou invite people into the store.
"Shopkeeper Zhou, I'm here again." Qingtian greeted Shopkeeper Zhou with a smile.
Shopkeeper Zhou also smiled and said, "What kind of jewelry do you want to see this time?"
"My dad wanted to buy a gold bracelet for my mom," Qingtian said proudly. "My dad is so amazing! He went up the mountain to hunt a leopard and sold the skin for money, just to buy a bracelet for my mom!"
When Shopkeeper Zhou heard this, he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. He didn't expect that this unremarkable middle-aged man in front of him was so capable.
"It's really not easy to hunt a leopard by yourself!"
Boss Ye immediately felt embarrassed by the praise.
"Shopkeeper, stop listening to the kid's exaggeration. I don't have that much ability on my own.
"Actually, it was a leopard caught in a trap."
When Qingtian heard this, he was worried that people might look down on Boss Ye, so he quickly said, "My dad is really amazing! He's also a tiger-catching hero!"
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Zhou slapped his thigh and said, "Tiger-catching hero? I know that!
"We held a celebration banquet at the government office before, didn't we?"
"Right, right." Boss Ye felt increasingly embarrassed and quickly changed the subject, "Boss, please show us the bracelet. We need to buy it quickly and go home for dinner!"
"Okay, then what price range of bracelets are you looking for?" Shopkeeper Zhou asked. Worried that Boss Ye might be worried, he explained, "Don't worry, our prices are absolutely reasonable. I'll calculate based on the price we paid the last time Young Master Qin brought this girl to buy gold jewelry."
Boss Ye had indeed been worried about this before, but after hearing what Shopkeeper Zhou said, he immediately felt relieved and said, "I have a total of 45 taels of silver. Shopkeeper, please choose a few for us to see."
In addition to the silver that Boss Cen earned from selling the leopard skins, Boss Ye also had some loose change in his hands. In the end, he scraped together a total of 45 taels of silver.
"Okay, for forty-five taels of silver, there are still many options to choose from."
Shopkeeper Zhou went downstairs for a while while saying this, then came back with a large tray, followed by a waiter who was also carrying a tray.
There were two trays filled with various kinds of gold bracelets.
"Please take a look."
Boss Ye didn't expect there to be so many choices and was instantly dazzled by the gold.
Shopkeeper Zhou introduced the gold bracelets to the two people, saying, "You can choose a pair of gold bracelets at this price, but they will be slightly thinner.
“You can also choose a single one, which will give it more weight.
"That depends on what you two like."
Boss Ye was dazzled and could only turn his head to look at Qingtian for help.
There are two trays in front of me, one is filled with pairs of bracelets, and the other is filled with thicker bracelets, some of which are fixed loops, and some are push-pull bracelets.
Seeing that they both looked bewildered, Shopkeeper Zhou continued, "Generally speaking, thinner bracelets are generally preferred by young girls and wives.
"If they were younger, they would probably prefer heavier bracelets."
After hearing what Shopkeeper Zhou said, the father and daughter focused their attention on the tray containing the single bracelet.
"Please take a look around first. If you don't find anything you like, I'll try to get some from other stores."
