226 The beggar is coming to the first floor of Qingqing

Su Baiwen was stunned. He was not the kind of gangster in the market, and he was even less good at quarrels with people, so he didn't know how to refute him.

His face turned red and he said angrily: "My father just threw a purse on your counter. The purse was embroidered by my sister!" While he said, he took out the purse that Su Baile gave him in the morning: "My sister embroidered one for each of my father and I. This one is green, and my father's one is light gray, and there are a few longevity peaches embroidered on it!"

The shopkeeper didn't want to pay attention to him anymore. He waved to him impatiently: "Walk around, where is the little beggar from? You have to come to the first floor of our Qing Dynasty. Open your cover and see clearly. Can we extort you from the copper coins?"

"The shopkeeper's words are wrong!" Su Baile turned back again, and naturally heard what he said just now. She signaled Su Baiwen to be calm and said with a clever smile: "If I were the shopkeeper, I would not have been greedy for that money bag."

How many people in this world can do it without taking money?

Even if she dies, this old thing will be jealous of money and go to get the purse.

Although the purse is placed on Su's father, it does not mean that the things inside are just a few copper plates as the shopkeeper said.

The shopkeeper of Qing's first floor sneered: "What a joke. The money we earn from Qing's first floor every day is more than the copper in your broken purse. How could you be interested in your purse?"

Su Baile was unmoved, but instead looked around the building.

Judging from the decoration style of this building and the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the four walls, this shop is completely different from those ready-to-wear shops in Xianghe Town.

They have their own decoration style, and the signatures of the calligraphy and paintings are even written by the same person. From this point of view, it is very likely that this Qing First Floor is a chain-based ready-to-wear shop.

"I dare to ask the shopkeeper, can you decide here?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "We have semicolons all over the country on the first floor of Qing, and I am the manager of Qing, the first floor of the county and prefectures."

"So, the first floor of Junzhouqing is in every detail, and you can make the decision?"

Without waiting for his answer, Su Baile walked straight to Su Baiwen, reached out to take his wallet over, and when he opened the wallet, he poured the things in the wallet on the counter in annoyance: "The shopkeeper has to look carefully. Does my brother have a copper plate in this wallet?"

The things in the purse were poured on the counter, and the pieces poured out were all broken silver.

In addition, there is a gold ingot of one or two, and a light purple pearl with a full and round color that is almost as thick as a thumb.

As soon as he saw the light purple pearl, the shopkeeper's eyes suddenly glared.

Such a big pearl, let alone him, even the entire county and state are rare.

What's more, this is a light purple pearl!

You should know that the pearls circulating in the world are mainly white or light yellow. Such a light purple pearl is an extremely rare treasure in the country!

Su Baile pinched the pearl and asked him: "This bead is worth one thousand taels, but it is definitely worth five hundred taels, which is definitely more or less, right?"

The shopkeeper's eyes were completely attracted by the pearl. When he heard Su Baile say this, he nodded repeatedly: "No, not bad, such a treasure is only one thousand taels of gold, so there must be a shortage of supply!"

Su Baile pursed his lips, put away the pearl, and picked up the blooming gold: "Shopkeeper, you have to see clearly. Although this ingot of gold is only two taels, it is worth two thousand taels of silver, right?"

The shopkeeper was completely stunned.

He still didn't understand why Su Baile said that.

Although she didn't say it, her attitude showed everything.

Even this inconspicuous young man had a purple pearl that was enough to make the ladies in the capital crazy, so...

He turned his eyes to Su's father, then, this old man...

He suddenly couldn't sit still. He looked at Su Baile with some pleading: "This lady..."

"I'm not a lady!"

"This lady..."

"I'm not a lady!"

"That……"

This is not that nor is it. The shopkeeper suddenly fell into a dilemma.

"Are you a little forgetful? Didn't you just say we were beggars?" Su Baile also put away the gold and put all the broken silver on the counter into the wallet. "I'll ask you again, do you know how many pearls are in the wallet on my mother's body that are the same as before?"

It was a cold day, and cold sweat suddenly appeared on the shopkeeper's head.

Su Baile stretched out his hand, and Su's mother trembled and took off the wallet on her body and handed it to Su Baile.

Su Baile took it with a slight smile on his face, threw the wallet on the counter, then opened it bit by bit with his hands, and finally squeezed out the things inside from the bottom of the wallet bit by bit.

When the first light purple pearl the size of a quail egg appeared, the shopkeeper's face turned pale.

But what followed were seven or eight light purple pearls of the same size. But Su Baile's hand had not stopped yet, and she squeezed it bit by bit. Finally, what came out was a light red pearl with dazzling light!

And its size is more than one circle larger than the previous ones!

"This is my mother's body, the shopkeeper. Do you want to hear what's in my father's purse?" Su Baile achieved his goal, then put away the pearls bit by bit, and asked.

Without waiting for the shopkeeper to speak, Su Baile said: "As the saying goes, 'Men wear Guanyin and women wear Buddha', my father's wallet contains jade."

When he heard Su Baile say that the purse was filled with jade, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up.

jade?

Any jade pendant can be hyped up to a sky-high price in Beijing!

Nowadays, I’m not afraid of you having no money, but I’m afraid of you not having jade to install a storefront!

In the capital, scholars wear a piece of jade around their waists, which not only attracts the attention of the little girls and daughters-in-law, but also shows their identities!

In addition to scholars, there are also civil servants and military generals who serve as officials in the court.

Civilian officials are naturally matched around their waists, while military generals like to decorate on the handles of weapons.

Through this, many other jade accessories were derived, such as folding fan pendants that were loved by literati, round fan pendants used by rich ladies, etc.

So, as soon as he heard the jade, the shopkeeper's eyes flashed, but Su Baile's next words made him feel a little disappointed.

"Although it's not a very expensive jade, do you listen to Dushan jade?"

Dushan Jade?

This can be said to be the lowest-class jade in the entire jade world.
