Chapter 121 Silver Exchange Troubles
Two hours ago, Ebei City
Shengze and his group entered the city smoothly with the badges issued by the person who took over yesterday.
But when they entered the city, the gate guard looked at them carefully twice and specifically reminded them to leave quickly after buying things and not to cause trouble.
Among them, Ling Yun and Shen Yong are the most lively and curious about everything, but they are here to purchase goods and are unfamiliar with the place, so they need to find someone to clarify the situation.
Mr. Shen is a modest gentleman. He has no problem communicating with others on a daily basis, but when it comes to dealing with people, he is still Shen Shan.
As the eldest son of the second wife, although Shen Shan is only nineteen years old this year, his ability to make friends is quite impressive.
Just like now, as soon as the few of them entered the city, Shen Shan walked towards a young woman, greeted her with a smile, and that person told him what she knew.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. I'll invite you for tea again someday if I have the chance." Shen Shan thanked him politely and left.
But in the woman's eyes, Shen Shan was good-looking, gentle and polite, which made her unconsciously want to talk to him. It was obviously just a polite remark, but she felt happy when she heard it.
Shen Yong was amazed. "It has to be Third Brother. If I dare to ask the young girls and wives, they will definitely think I am a pervert."
Ling Yun rolled his eyes at him and said, "Who told you to be so unserious all day long?"
Shen Yong was not convinced by this. "How am I not serious? I am obviously not worse than the third brother in appearance, and I never touch anyone. What on earth did I misunderstand?"
"How would I know?" Ling Yun spread his hands. "Maybe it's because your smile makes people want to beat you up."
Shen Yong froze when he heard this, then he was so angry. Even though he knew he couldn't beat Ling Yun, he still rolled up his sleeves and got ready.
“Xiao Si, stop messing around, we still have to go shopping.” Shen Jun grabbed Shen Yong in time.
Sheng Ze also glanced at Ling Yun and said lightly: "Enough is enough."
Ling Yun said innocently: "I obviously didn't do anything."
Shen Shan had already memorized what everyone wanted. After asking where they needed to buy it, he pointed in a direction and said, "Go to the grocery store to buy small things first. For the rest, you have to go to Hu City in the east. It is said that things are cheaper there."
"I'll go over there to exchange some silver first. You guys wait for me at the intersection next to me." Shen Jun pointed to the gold and silver shop not far ahead. Next to the shop was the direction of the grocery store that Shen Shan pointed to.
Sheng Ze raised his foot and followed him, "I'll go with you."
Although he didn't know what the Shen family would use to exchange for silver, he didn't see them worrying about silver along the way, which meant that the Shen family was not short of silver for the time being, and the amount of silver they could exchange would definitely not be small.
After all, this is a city in northern Hubei, and it is not as stable as the capital.
Shen Jun naturally understood Sheng Ze's intention and would not refuse. The two of them went into the gold and silver shop together.
He originally thought that this was just a small matter and he could exchange the silver quickly. However, when Shen Jun took out the gold leaves and a whole piece of gold, the shop owner went back on his word and lowered the exchange rate he had originally asked for.
"The quality of your gold leaf isn't very good. The five taels of silver you mentioned earlier for one gold leaf is for good quality. You can only exchange it for three taels."
Shen Jun frowned, "This is all genuine pure gold, the quality is absolutely fine, shopkeeper, please take a closer look."
How could something from the Taifu Mansion be bad?
But the shopkeeper insisted, "This is the price. You can get the same price at other shops. Three taels for gold leaves and fifteen taels for gold flakes. It's up to you whether you want to exchange them or not."
