Chapter 296 Can't Afford
It turned out that the stall owner was talking to Shen Qingqian.
Shen Qingqian looked up and couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth.
Brother, you are a boss after all, don't you care about your image?
The stall owner in front of me had a beard, two big dark circles under his eyes, and yellow sand, the most common color outside the customs, on his face. It was obvious that he had come here in a hurry.
Shen Qingqian didn't understand what he said, so she could only pick up the beaker and point with a smile.
"You buy it!" The bearded uncle's eyes lit up and he held up three fingers. "Three taels!"
Seeing that Shen Qingqian didn't understand, he had to switch to the few words of Dajin dialect he knew.
Shen Qingqian frowned. An ordinary glass costs three taels.
"Beautiful girl, two taels!" The bearded uncle saw Shen Qingqian frowning and quickly gave her a thumbs up.
Shen Qingqian was speechless and turned away.
Is there any difference between two taels and three taels? She thinks two hundred wen is expensive.
It's just a glass beaker, it's not like she can't find a replacement.
When the man saw Shen Qingqian was about to leave, he quickly shouted from behind, "Send her off, send her off!"
Shen Qingqian stopped and turned around, feeling both amused and helpless. She saw the bearded uncle looking at her with a beaker in his hand, looking at her with a painful expression.
Even a fool knows that it is impossible to give it as a gift. There must be some conditions.
Shen Qingqian came to his stall again, "What do you want me to buy?"
The things on this stall didn’t seem special to her, and other people had no idea what they were used for, so they just glanced at them and walked away.
The bearded uncle mysteriously took out a cylindrical object from his arms and gestured with his hands to show its purpose.
However, Shen Qingqian opened her eyes wide the moment she saw this thing.
Oh my god! It’s a telescope!
Where on earth did this guy come from? How could he have something like a telescope?
Although this telescope is very different from the modern one, what the person is holding in his hand is indeed a telescope.
Shen Qingqian didn't continue listening to him and stretched out her hand to indicate that she wanted to take a look.
The bearded uncle was afraid that she didn't know how to use it, so he wanted to teach her again, but he saw Shen Qingqian holding it and looking into the distance.
"You know him?" the bearded uncle was surprised.
You know, all these things he had were obtained from the distant sea. He met so many people along the way, but no one knew what these things were used for. He didn't expect that a little girl from Dajin actually knew them.
Shen Qingqian didn't reply and was carefully examining the telescope.
To be honest, this telescope is better than she expected. It can see things at least within 500 meters, and the maximum observation distance should be more than 1,000 meters.
It's already amazing for this era.
If I take this back to Old Qin for research, I wonder if it can bring some substantial rewards to the Shen family.
Shen Qingqian's mind soon turned to other things, and she immediately decided to buy the telescope no matter what.
However, just by looking at the fact that this thing is not even on display, you can tell it won’t be cheap.
So Shen Qingqian looked at it for a while, pretended to be helpless and put it down, and sighed, "Sorry, I don't need this thing either."
"No, no, it's cheap, very cheap!" The bearded uncle was anxious and offered to lower the price, "Only one gold leaf!"
For him, this price is very low.
Shen Qingqian put on an exaggerated surprised expression, "It's so expensive! I can't afford it."
Having said that, she was about to leave.
The bearded uncle finally met someone who knew the value of the product and was unwilling to let it go. He gritted his teeth and said, "Half a piece! No less!"
Woohoo, he really has it difficult. If he fails to sell anything, he may not even have the money to go back to his hometown. Otherwise, he would not be able to sell this thing.
