When the man heard this, his brows furrowed involuntarily.
This girl is so brave to say that.
"Little girl, two hundred taels is indeed too high."
"Shopkeeper, whether two hundred taels is a lot or not, I'm sure you know better than us. You won't lose out. We are hunters, and we might have other good things to sell to you in the future. Consider this two hundred taels a friendly price. When we need to sell furs in the future, we will definitely come to you. Tell me, is your business a good deal?"
"Besides, even if you gave us two hundred yuan, you can sell it for at least three hundred taels after some processing. After deducting labor costs and other things, your profit will be at least ninety taels of silver. You can make ninety taels from this tiger skin. What if it's more?"
Lin Jiuyue looked at the man with a smile.
The man was a little embarrassed.
I really underestimated the little girl in front of me.
"Haha, what the girl said makes sense. In that case, I will accept this tiger skin. If you have anything good in the future, please come to my shop first. Just like what the girl said, consider this tiger skin as a friendship."
"Okay, okay. If we find any fur in the future, my brother and I will definitely bring it to Shopkeeper Zhang first."
After agreeing on the price, Shopkeeper Zhang went into the house to get the silver, while Lin Jiuyue and Gu Chengyan stood in the yard waiting.
Gu Chengyan finally couldn't help it and asked.
"How do you know the price of this tiger skin so clearly?"
Lin Jiuyue rolled her eyes at Gu Chengyan and then spoke softly.
"I'd guessed you might be deceived. I didn't expect I'd actually guessed it right."
"I already found out everything when you entered the shop, otherwise we would have suffered a huge loss this time!"
Gu Chengyan: ...
I have never sold these things myself, so I don't know if the price is normal.
After a while, Shopkeeper Zhang came out with a money bag.
"Little brother, can I have a banknote?"
Lin Jiuyue and Gu Chengyan looked at each other.
"Shopkeeper, if it's convenient, we still want the silver."
Lin Jiuyue thought about it and always felt that silver notes were not that safe.
Silver is better, real money, and I won't be worried if I hold it in my hands. In this kind of situation, the bank might close down at any time, and where will I get the money then?
Shopkeeper Zhang was a little embarrassed.
"Girl, look, I don't have that much money in my shop..."
Lin Jiuyue: ...
"Manager Zhang, give as much silver as you can, and the rest in banknotes."
After listening to this, Shopkeeper Zhang turned around and went back to get the silver?
"What do you need so much silver for? Silver notes are more convenient."
Lin Jiyue curled her lips.
Silver notes are convenient, but they can be used to upgrade your own space. It doesn't recognize silver notes, so what do you need so many silver notes for?
Besides, I already have space. Why am I worried about not having a place to hide my money? Isn't that ridiculous?
"With all the chaos going on right now, it's not safe to hold on to the banknotes. It's better to hold on to the silver."
Gu Chengyan: ...
A bank can't go bankrupt that easily, right? Look how scared she is.
"Could it be that you won't need banknotes when you have more money in the future?"
Lin Jiuyue looked at Gu Chengyan in confusion.
I'm still fleeing famine. How did this guy know that he would make a lot of money in the future?
Could it be that I have a face that shows I have become rich overnight?
"Gu Chengyan, what do you mean? Do you mean that I will make a lot of money in the future?"
Lin Jiuyue's face was full of smiles.
No matter what, Gu Chengyan liked what he said.
Gu Chengyan looked at Lin Jiuyue speechlessly.
This girl is really obsessed with money.
"It's not that easy for a bank to go bankrupt. Your worries are unnecessary."
Lin Jiuyue curled her lips.
I didn't know if my worries were unnecessary. But I knew that money was hard currency. Plus, I had space, so I wasn't worried about having nowhere to put it.
"Little brother, girl, here are the silver. One hundred taels of silver, one hundred taels of silver notes. Do you think this is okay?"
Shopkeeper Zhang came out with a smile, holding ten ingots of silver, each worth ten taels. Plus two fifty-tael silver notes, a total of two hundred taels.
Lin Jiuyue took the silver and looked at it. She wanted to do what others did and bite it to see if it was real. But then she thought about how many people had handled the silver and how dirty it must be. She gave up the idea immediately.
"Okay, okay, okay. Shopkeeper Zhang. Thank you for your help."
After Lin Jiuyue finished speaking, Gu Chengyan handed the tiger skin to Shopkeeper Zhang.
"Manager Zhang, this tiger skin is yours from now on."
Shopkeeper Zhang took the tiger skin and looked at it with satisfaction.
"Haha, if you have any furs in the future, just bring them to me, I'll take them."
After collecting the silver, the two men left the fur shop.
"Gu Chengyan, these things haven't been dealt with yet..."
Lin Jiuyue saw the cart full of miscellaneous things and said with a headache.
Gu Chengyan frowned.
These things all belong to the villagers, and I don't know if they will sell well. If they don't sell well, I won't have the money to buy them.
Fortunately, I sold a tiger skin, otherwise I would have no money to go into the city.
"Let's try selling it first. We'll get as much as we can."
Lin Jiuyue frowned.
It would take a lot of time to sell these things, and I don’t have that much time to waste.
"Gu Chengyan, I've come up with a way to sell these things faster."
Gu Chengyan looked at Lin Jiuyue curiously.
"What method?"
Lin Jiuyue didn't say anything and found a bamboo from the cart.
"You can make bamboo strips, right? You make the bamboo strips first and I'll tie them into circles. Then we can find a place to put them and put them in the circles."
Lin Jiuyue thought of the ring-tossing game she had seen in the 21st century. Every time she saw it, there were always a lot of people watching.
Ring tossing games didn't exist back then, so I'm sure this novel twist would be attractive.
After hearing this, Gu Chengyan was still a little confused.
"Oh, forget it for now. Just do as I say."
After hearing this, Gu Chengyan didn't ask any more questions. He skillfully cut the bamboo in half and peeled off the yellow side, leaving only the outermost layer of skin.
Lin Jiuyue made circles of the same size with the bamboo strips that Gu Chengyan had prepared. After trying them, she found that they were not too heavy and were just the right size for making a ring.
The two of them worked together and quickly made fifty circles.
"That's enough."
Gu Chengyan looked at the bamboo rings hanging on Lin Jiuyue's arms one by one, still a little confused.
"Let's go, I'll take you to make money."
Gu Chengyan didn't say anything and followed Lin Jiuyue.
The two of them soon arrived at the market. After asking around and paying the stall fee, Lin Jiuyue got busy.
"What are you still standing there for? Come and help me."
After listening to this, Gu Chengyan followed Lin Jiuyue's example and moved the things off the cart one by one.
