Chapter 68 Killing Cheng Yaojin halfway

The website access address of "Aishu.com" is

Xu Xi hesitated and stopped and said, "Okay, let's wait." He turned to shopkeeper Huang who breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You have to hurry up, I have something else to do."

"Hey, okay, girl, please go back and wait." Shopkeeper Huang said, calling the boy again, "Give me good tea and snacks, and greet this girl well." After saying that, he hurried out the door.

"Girl, please." The young man gave Xu Xi a stiff smile. He was very nervous, fearing that Xu Xi would leave if he disagreed with her. The shopkeeper and the boss couldn't find anyone when they came back, so they might punish him.

Xu Xi has never sold design drafts in this era. Her psychological price is fifty taels per picture, and she plans to sell five of them first to make the first pot of gold. As for whether she will sell the design drafts in the future, and at what price, she will

We will decide when the time comes.

She asked for one hundred taels of silver a piece, but the price was too high to pay back on the spot. Shopkeeper Huang paid thirty taels a piece, and she was a little moved.

Naturally, she would not leave at this time, and followed the boy's movements and walked upstairs.

But as soon as she climbed to the second floor, she came face to face with a woman's face.

This woman is probably in her early twenties, with a feminine hairstyle, a gorgeous face, wearing a bright red pleated floral skirt, and a golden walking stick with a ruby ​​​​on her head. Behind her are a grandma and two maids standing behind her, all dressed up.

She is much more luxurious than the maids and women in the Hou Mansion, which shows that this woman is either rich or noble.

"Can you show me what your decoration looks like? If it's good, I'm willing to buy it for a hundred taels of silver each," the woman said.

"Husband, madam." A waiter wearing a silver dress came out of the room behind her, stammered, looked at Xu Xi pleadingly, and boldly said, "Our shopkeeper will go with this guy first."

This is a conversation with a girl. Can you let the shopkeeper finish the conversation, and then, madam, you can talk to this girl?"

The woman said nothing and only looked at Xu Xi.

It was obvious at first glance that this woman was not short of money. Of course Xu Xi was happy to sell the design to her.

But when doing business, there are still certain principles that must be followed.

She said to the woman: "What this guy said makes sense. Everything comes on a first-come, first-served basis. If the owner of the bank is not willing to buy my design for one hundred taels a piece, then we can talk about it later."

The woman curled her lips and nodded: "Okay." She pointed to the room next door, "I'm right here. After the girl has finished talking with her boss, you can ask the guy to call me."

"Okay." Xu Xi nodded and walked into the room where she originally stayed.

Both guys breathed a huge sigh of relief.

However, when Ms. Xie heard that this woman really wanted a hundred taels of silver to buy the design, she stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Xu Xue had quick eyes and quick hands and caught her.

The group of people entered the room and sat down. The boy quickly put the snacks on the table and made tea again.

Naturally, Xu Xi couldn't sit and eat and drink by herself, so she asked Xie and Xu Xue to stand and watch, and said to them: "Okay, there are no outsiders here, you can just sit down and have some snacks."

"Girl, how can this be done?" Ms. Xie was still ashamed of her fall just now. How could she sit down? What if her secret was exposed?

Xu Xi's face sank: "I asked you to sit down. Why, do I have to invite you?"

With this change of expression, she seemed to have the majesty of a rich and powerful daughter. Xie and Xu Xue were a little frightened, so they quickly sat down obediently, picked up the snacks that Xu Xi pushed in front of them, and started eating.

Xu Xi said to the boy again: "There is a man named Xu downstairs who is my coachman. He came out with me in the morning, and I think he was thirsty and hungry. Give him these snacks and give him a snack by the way."

A pot of tea.”

As she said that, she took out the handkerchief from Xie's sleeve, wrapped four or five pieces of snacks, and handed them to the boy.

"The girl is really kind-hearted." The boy flattered her and went downstairs with the handkerchief.

Xie and Xu Xue were a little confused by Xu Xi's operation.

Xu Xue came closer to Xu Xi and whispered: "Wouldn't this make people suspicious?"

Xie quickly glanced at her, pointed to the next room, reminded Xu Xue that walls had ears, and shook her head at Xu Xi.

Xu Xue stuck out her tongue, quickly lowered her head to eat snacks, and did not dare to speak any more.

Probably the owner of the Silver House lived not far away. After waiting for a while, shopkeeper Huang came back with an old man and introduced to Xu Xi: "This is our owner, whose surname is Xu."

Old man Xu had a serious face. He nodded towards Xu Xi and asked, "Can I see the girl's picture?"

Xu Xi took out the design drawing and handed it to him.

Old man Xu looked at the design drawing, with a glint in his eyes, and nodded: "Okay, we want this picture for one hundred taels of silver." He then asked Xu Xi, "Girl, can you show me other pictures?

?"

Xu Xi blinked, turned to Mrs. Xie and said, "Go and ask the lady next door to come over."

Xu Xi was pretty good at knowing people, but she always felt that this old man Xu didn't seem to be sincere and trustworthy. If he could buy this picture so readily, it's probably because the guy downstairs had paid the lady's price.

I told him about the design. He couldn't bear to part with the design, and he couldn't lower the price anymore, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and buy the design.

You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others. Xu Xi has nothing to rely on in this world, so he dare not just take out all the drawings. What if Mr. Xu reads other design drafts and expresses that he does not like it and refuses

If he buys it, waits for Xu Xi to leave, then draws it out, and lets the craftsmen in his shop imitate it, then Xu Xi will suffer a big loss.

With his copycat, Xu Xi had no choice but to sell other design drafts in the capital. After all, someone had already made the ornaments and sold them, and the one who bought the design drafts was not the only one, nor was he the first one. They suffered a loss.

, someone must come to seek justice.

Those who built the silver building were all people with backgrounds, and a small run-down mansion could not protect her.

Anyway, people are wandering in the world, and they can be stabbed at any time. Xu Xi is not afraid to speculate and guard against others with the greatest malice, otherwise, she will most likely suffer the consequences.

When he heard that Xu Xi was going to invite someone, Old Xu's face didn't look good.

He said: "We are still talking about business, and the girl invites someone to come over. Isn't this appropriate? After we finish talking, I say I don't want to buy it, and the girl talks to the lady again. This is the rule of the world. Everything has to come first, first served, right?

?”

Xie and Xu Xue felt a little frightened when they saw him saying this with a serious face, and both looked at Xu Xi anxiously.

Xu Xi didn't care at all. Although there was a smile on his face, his expression was indifferent: "Didn't we conclude the deal? Look, I didn't show this design to the lady first, right? This is

Follow the rules of the world. But the next few pictures are things we have not discussed in advance. Since the lady next door said she wanted to buy them, of course I had to ask her to look at them together. Of course, if Boss Xu doesn’t want to look at them, then I will leave.
