Chapter 603 Lessons
The owner of the pawnshop was so excited that his lips were trembling. After such a long time, this house was the first one to be asked for the price. "Madam Ye, let me put it this way about this house. I have been doing the pawnshop business for so many years, and this is the cheapest house I have ever come across.
The prodigal owner of this house is in urgent need of money, so he only sold this large place for 350 taels."
The shopkeeper was afraid that Zhang Juexia would refuse, so he continued, "Madam Ye, this price includes the furniture in the house!
Why don’t we go in and take a look at the house? When my friend first moved in, he renovated everything so it’s easy to live in for another fifty years.
And the furniture in the house is all made of good materials, alas..."
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Grandchildren are blessed with their own children. My friend made very good arrangements for his children, but unfortunately, in the end, everything that should be sold was sold."
Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu followed the pawnshop owner into the house and took a closer look. It was just as the owner said, everything was usable and there was no need to buy new ones.
Zhang Juexia pulled Ye Beixiu aside and whispered, "Husband, what do you think?"
Ye Beixiu nodded with satisfaction, "It's really good!"
"Then I talked to the shopkeeper."
Zhang Juexia walked up to the owner of the pawnshop and asked, "Boss, can I see the owner of this house?"
The owner of the pawnshop felt nervous. If he didn't agree, they would finally have a buyer. But if they met, that prodigal son would force him to sell the item as long as he was paid!
The pawnshop owner made up his mind and thought, alas, this is all the help he can provide. Forget it, just sell this house for whatever silver he can get!
After all, he liked the new buyer, so he was helping his deceased friend to entrust the house to a destined person!
Zhang Juexia seemed to see through the owner's thoughts and said, "Don't worry, owner. This house is so big and worth three hundred and fifty taels of silver. Don't worry, I won't bargain anymore.
I'm just curious about what this prodigal son looks like. How could he squander such a huge fortune left to him by his father? "
The more Zhang Juexia talked, the more he found this man interesting. When he had no money, he sold a storefront. When the storefront could no longer be sold, he sold the house. What a wasteful person he was!
The pawnshop owner heaved a sigh of relief. "Okay, I'll have my clerk invite him over when I get home. Since Madam Ye is so forthcoming, I'll be forthcoming too. I'll waive the intermediary fee for you today."
Zhang Juexia quickly refused, "Boss, this won't do. You've done me such a big favor, and I still have the money. Otherwise, how could I have the nerve to trouble you if I had any problems in the future!"
Ye Beixiu also meant the same thing and was determined to pay the fees of the pawnshop owner.
The pawnshop owner was still insisting, but Zhang Juexia waved his hand and looked at him with a smile, "Boss, we are acquaintances now. How about this? When we come to you for help next time, you can give us a discount."
"Okay, okay, that's fine. I know that Mr. and Mrs. Ye are both straightforward people, and I like making friends with straightforward people."
They arrived at Xinglong Dental Clinic and had just had a cup of tea when the prodigal son came over with a birdcage in his hand. "Uncle Huang, someone really wants to buy our ancestral home. Where is he? Let me take a look."
"Young Master Zhao is here!"
The pawnshop owner came forward and pointed at Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu and introduced them, "These two are Master Ye and Madam Ye!"
"Madam Ye, this is the owner of the house I was talking about, Zhao Ruifeng, Young Master Zhao!"
Without waiting for Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu to speak, Zhao Ruifeng put down the bird cage and rubbed his hands. "Well, let's hurry up. My hands have been itching for a while!"
Shopkeeper Huang sighed and signaled the waiter to get the contract, while Zhang Juexia tactfully took out the banknote.
Zhao Ruifeng's eyes sparkled when he saw the banknotes. "I told you, this young master is not short of money. Damn it, I'll show them how low I can go. I'm going to fight him for eight hundred rounds today. I won't stop until I win a house."
"Boss, please be kind and give us mother and me a chance to survive!"
When Zhang Juexia heard the voice, he looked back and saw a sallow-faced young woman holding a thin child standing behind Zhao Ruifeng.
Zhao Ruifeng impatiently urged the mother and daughter with his hands, "Go, go, who asked you to come? I feel unlucky just looking at your face, hurry up and leave, can't you see I'm busy!"
Zhang Juexia walked up to the young woman curiously and asked, "Who are you?"
The young woman pointed at Zhao Ruifeng timidly and said, "He is my boss."
Zhang Juexia understood, "So what are you doing?"
The young woman's tears began to flow, and the child in her arms also started crying. Shopkeeper Huang tried to persuade them, "Young Madam, why are you doing this?"
The young woman held the child in her arms and knelt down in front of Shopkeeper Huang, "Uncle Huang, I beg you, please give us a chance to live!"
"Look at you, this house has already been sold. If you don't sell it, you will starve!"
The young woman shook her head and said, "Uncle Huang, that's not what I meant. I can't stop you from selling the house!
I only ask Uncle Huang to be kind and leave two dollars for my mother and me from the money from selling the house. Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive!"
Zhao Ruifeng raised his foot and was about to kick the young woman. "Believe it or not, I'm going to sell you to a brothel right now."
Ye Beixiu reached out and pushed Zhao Ruifeng down, "You dare to hit my wife in front of me? Believe it or not, I will break your arm.
Madam, please give the banknote to this Young Madam Zhao.
Shopkeeper Huang, please get the contract done for me quickly. I feel like my eyes are dirty just by looking at this kind of person.
You have no ability at all!"
Zhao Ruifeng glared at Ye Beixiu in dissatisfaction. Ye Beixiu waved his hand and slapped him in the face. "This slap is for your ancestors to teach you a lesson. This slap is for your wife to teach you a lesson. This slap is for the child in your wife's arms to teach you a lesson."
Soon Zhao Ruifeng's face turned into a pig's head.
Shopkeeper Huang came in with the contract and just shook his head. "Madam Ye, please keep this. I'll have my clerk get the deed done. If it's quick, it should be ready this afternoon. I'll personally deliver it to your home then."
"Thank you, shopkeeper!"
"polite!"
Zhang Juexia reached out and tugged at the corner of Ye Beixiu's clothes, "Husband, people like this just need to be taught a lesson."
Ye Beixiu finally stopped. He pointed at Zhao Ruifeng, who was howling on the ground, and said to the sobbing young woman in front of him, "You see, this kind of person cannot be treated with mercy. He must be taught a lesson.
Keep the banknotes in your hand, or you and your child will be left with nothing."
