As soon as the boss saw that Li Jue was about to leave, he immediately used his huge body to block the doorway.
"Don't go, sir!"
"If you feel the price is unreasonable, you can always try to bargain..."
"Boss, you're only giving me ten strings of cash, how am I supposed to bargain?"
Upon hearing this, the boss blushed with shame.
"Sir, to be honest, although icing is precious, it is too expensive for ordinary people to afford. Only royalty and nobility can enjoy it."
"For a small business like ours, giving out ten strings of cash is already quite a lot!"
"How about this, I'll give you twenty strings of cash!"
"The Changsun family's shop in Chang'an East City only charges a little over three strings of cash per pound for icing sugar. I'm already charging two strings of cash per pound, which is a high price!"
"Besides, you have to let me earn something too, right?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jue hesitated slightly before reluctantly nodding.
"All right!"
"If my family hadn't fallen on hard times, I would never have sold this item. You've gotten a great deal!"
"You're a straightforward young man!"
"Erniu, quickly give this young man twenty strings of cash!"
"promise!"
Before long, a young shop assistant took out twenty strings of cash and placed them heavily on the counter, making a crisp metallic clanging sound.
"Young man, these twenty strings of cash weigh at least sixty or seventy catties. Can you carry them?"
"You don't need to worry about that!"
Li Jue smiled slightly and then waved towards the door.
"Uncle Fat Tiger, come and get my money!"
"Okay!"
As soon as Li Jue finished speaking, a burly young man walked over from across the street and effortlessly hung ten strings of copper coins around his neck.
"Young Master, let's go home!"
When the shop owner saw that the distinguished guest was about to leave, he hurriedly ran out to see him off.
"Young man, my name is Wang Fugui. If you have any more good stuff like this in the future, feel free to bring it to me to sell!"
"Okay, I'll definitely remember you if I get anything good in the future!"
Li Jue verbally agreed, but he had no intention of coming back at all.
After all, the lucrative icing industry is really not suitable for a kid like him. If he were to be targeted by some nobles, he wouldn't even know how he died.
Therefore, he basically changes to a different store every time he sells goods!
However, just as Li Jue was about to go home with Uncle Pang Hu, he suddenly saw two middle-aged men blocking his way.
"May I ask what advice you two gentlemen have for me?"
"Uncle?"
When Li Shimin heard the term "uncle," his head buzzed. This bastard was asking for a beating, daring to call him "uncle"!
"You don't recognize me?"
"Who are you? Why should I know you?"
You really don't recognize me?
Upon hearing this, Li Jue immediately felt a little guilty, after all, he had faked his death to deceive the Qianzhou government and then secretly ran back to Chang'an from Qianzhou.
If someone reports it to the authorities, it's a capital offense punishable by beheading!
"Uncle, I really don't know you!"
Li Shimin persisted in asking the question.
"What's your father's name?"
"My father's name is Shi Jingtang!"
"Shi Jingtang?"
"So what's your name?"
"My name is Shi Dakai!"
