"Why are you in such a hurry, girl? This business is just a give and take. I ask for the price, but you can also bargain! Besides, this thing of mine is real, it's definitely worth the money!"
Li Wenjing asked carefully: "Thirty, will you sell it?"
"That's... a bit too little. How about this, you give me forty-five, and we'll even make a loss to get some publicity!"
Looking at Zhang Si's embarrassed look, Li Wenjing secretly complained in his heart, and had to admit that these people's acting skills were still acceptable.
Li Wenjing placed the snuff bottle on the stall. "This... is too expensive. I don't think it's worth it!"
"Girl, let me tell you, my price is definitely a fair one. Look at my snuff bottle, it's made by the palace manufacturing office.
Look again, this painter is also an experienced craftsman."
Zhang Si had a lot to say.
Liu Na, who was standing next to her, pulled Li Wenjing to leave. Li Wenjing casually picked up another wooden Buddha statue from the stall.
"Brother, how about this? Give me a little extra. How about 40 yuan for these two?"
Liu Na pointed at something and said, "Yeah, that's about right. This thing is so small, let's get a bigger one. Forget about the others, let's just go with the vase next to it!"
Li Wenjing almost couldn't hold back her laughter. Although this girl didn't know much, she was quite lucky.
She was originally going to exchange the vase for a gift, but she didn't expect the sister to speak first.
Looking at the vase, it doesn't look very good, but it is an authentic Qianlong period famille rose.
It's just that one of the upper corners is slightly damaged.
“Let’s put it this way, it’s fate that the two girls can come to my stall today, so please open a stall for me today.
Take all three for eighty dollars, and stop talking about that. What do you think?
For Zhang San, being able to sell three items at once was already very good. When he bought them, they were five dollars per cart.
Liu Na quietly counted the number of times Li Wenjing pinched her and said, "Seventy, not a cent more!"
"Eighty. I'll give you a handful of copper coins. Let's not bargain any further!"
Zhang Si looked at the box of copper coins in front of him without giving up.
Li Wenjing handed the money directly to Zhang Si: "Okay, eighty yuan, but I have to choose the copper coins myself!"
Li Wenjing took the box of copper coins and picked them out carefully. Not many of these copper coins were good. They could barely be put together to make a pair of Five Emperors' Coins, so he hung them at home to ward off evil!
After quickly picking out what you want, you grab your things and get ready to go.
Li San couldn't sit still anymore. Seeing that Zhang Si had sold several pieces, which was enough to cover two months' salary, he decided to give it a try too.
"Two girls, come and take a look at my stall and see if there's anything that catches your eye!"
Liu Na took a look and said disdainfully: "Your stuff is not as good as his. What's on top of you?"
"Girls, take a closer look at my incense burner. This is a genuine Boshan incense burner. If it wasn't my first time setting up a stall today, I wouldn't be willing to bring this thing out. This thing is the treasure of the store no matter where it is placed."
Li San began to recommend the Boshan furnace in his hand.
Li Wenjing looked at the incense burner in Li San's hand. The craftsmanship was indeed good, but it was at most a product from the Republic of China period. The inkstone on this stall was a good thing, and the most important thing was that it was hollow inside.
She must get this thing today, Li Wenjing thought to herself.
Thinking of this, Li Wenjing asked: "How much do you sell this Boshan furnace for?"
Li Sanshizi said loudly: "Miss, if you really want to buy it, then I will give you a real price, 500 yuan, take it!"
"What about this inkstone?"
"This inkstone?"
Li San thought to himself that this thing was placed in the corner of the house. He had collected it several years ago and just took it out today.
In fact, he had asked someone to look at this thing a long time ago. It was not valuable and was a work of craftsmanship from the Republic of China period.
Li San thought for a moment and said cruelly, "Miss, if you like it, I'll buy you a Boshan stove and give it to you. You can just give me twenty yuan for it."
Li Wenjing said a little embarrassedly: "Brother, your Boshan furnace is too expensive. I can't afford it. I'll just take this inkstone, but I only have fifteen yuan."
Li San...
I originally wanted to make a fortune, but now...
Forget it, no matter how small a fly is, it is still meat, and Li San didn't make things difficult for her.
"Okay!"
After receiving the money, Li San handed the inkstone to Li Wenjing.
Liu Na complained: "Why did you buy this thing?"
"Take it back and write something for my dad!"
Li Wenjing smiled naively, as if it was her first time here and she was still a fat sheep.
The two continued to walk forward, and the stall owners at each stall greeted them. These were two walking gods of wealth, and they must not be let go if they passed by!
So with the exquisite cooperation between Li Wenjing and Liu Na, Li Wenjing reluctantly collected half of the good things on the street.
"What's that noise outside?"
Someone in the room asked.
"Hey, Xuanzi, you may not know this, but over the past few days, the shops here have gradually opened up, and there are many more people setting up stalls. With people setting up stalls, there are of course more people shopping. Everyone wants to try it out. In my opinion, this place is not far from becoming prosperous again.
Are you really planning to rent out those shops? You really don't want to sell the four treasures of the study anymore!"
Another young man in the room asked.
"Oh no! It's best to rent it out. You know my family's situation. My uncle and aunt are both eyeing my mom's dowry. I don't know who gave them the face!"
There were two people in the room, one was Yue Xuanyu and the other was his good friend Huo Sichuan.
Huo Sichuan raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why haven't they given up yet? Are your grandparents just watching them?"
“I seldom visit my grandparents, and I don’t know what they mean.
But when I think about it, how could my aunt be able to enter the house again without my grandfather's permission?
In the eyes of my grandparents, I, their grandson, am definitely not as important as their daughter.
No, it should be said that my mother is not as important to them as others."
Yue Xuanyu said self-deprecatingly that if he could get over the murder that happened back then, then what else could he not get over?
Huo Sichuan heard this and said, "Then it's right that you don't go. I heard that your uncle is planning to take over the land west of the city."
"Just him? Where does he get so much money?"
"I called you here today to tell you this. I think I heard that your uncle's two courtyards are also for sale. I just heard Xiao Si talk about it today."
Yue Xuanyu's fingers kept tapping on the table, thinking quickly in his mind.
