Chapter 229 Betting Continued

"Fanri, how can you be sure that it will rain before the time is set today?" On the way home, Xie Fanchen was still a little curious about how Fanri concluded that it would rain before the time was set.

"I'm sure after seeing the rain-covered flowers in Zhou's garden. The rain-covered flowers in Zhou's garden have already bloomed, and after the rain-covered flowers bloom, there will definitely be rain within half a day." Xie Fanri explained.

"No wonder! That's great. Today you went out and made 1000 taels of silver and came back. You can brag in front of your elder brother."

"Brother said before that I was petty, today I made money, let's buy and buy." Xie Fanri thought of his elder brother saying that he was petty yesterday, and he didn't want to lose face.

If you make money today, you have to spend it all, and you have to earn back this face today.

"The 500 taels of silver are gone, what should I buy? My eldest sister wants to buy the shop next door to our tavern and expand our wine shop, but the shop next door is not rented out or sold, so it's hard to do.

The five hundred silver is spent all at once, so we have to think about what to buy for home, what shall we buy? "After thinking about it, Fanchen realized that their family doesn't seem to lack anything at the moment.

In fact, there was something missing, that is, the county, the prefectural city and the capital city lacked a house for their family to live in.

But the 500 taels of silver that Fanri earned obviously couldn't buy a house in the county, unless he added the 500 taels of silver from the prefect of Zhou, it would be manageable.

"It's not easy to spend all the 500 taels of silver. The elder sister, the second sister, the third sister, our brothers, and grandma don't have any gold or silver jewelry. How many pieces of gold and silver jewelry and accessories should we buy as a family? These 500 taels are not enough for us." Xie Fanri stopped in front of a silver building, pointed to the silver building and said to his third sister.

"That's the right idea, I bought it." Xie Fanchen thought about it, his brothers and sisters didn't have any gold or silver jewelry or accessories, and now that they've made money, they should buy them one by one.

As Xie Fanchen said, he led Fanri to the silver building.

The silver building in the town is not big, only two floors in size, and not many people go in to buy gold and silver jewelry.

When Xie Fanchen and his brother entered the silver building, there were only a few scattered people looking at the jewelry on the first floor.

At this time, when the maid in the Yinlou saw Xie Fanchen and his brother coming in, the maid immediately came up to greet them, smiled and said to Xie Fanchen and her brother: "What do you want to buy, Mr. and Miss?"

"Jade wrench fingers, red hairpins, earrings, jade pendants, pendants, bracelets, take the ones that look good and are expensive." Xie Fanri waved his hand very grandly.

Since Xie Fanri planned to buy gold and silver jewelry for his family, he had already thought of what to give to the family members.

He first asked the maid to take out the things he needed one by one for him to choose, and bought everything he saw that was suitable.

The maid who greeted Xie Fanri hadn’t answered yet, the shopkeeper of the silver building had already noticed the situation here, the shopkeeper looked at Xie Fanri’s posture, and knew that it was a big customer, so the shopkeeper came over immediately, He personally received Xie Fanri and Xie Fanchen, smiled and welcomed Xie Fanri and his brother to the VIP box on the second floor, and entertained them with delicious food and drink.

Afterwards, let the maid bring up the things Xie Fanri needed one by one, put them in front of their siblings, and let them choose.

"Auspicious hairpins, auspicious wishful hairpins, silver-plated gold-plated butterfly hairpins inlaid with treasures, curved butterfly hairpins with butterfly tassels, golden phoenix hairpins inlaid with silk and precious stones, four butterfly silver steps, white jade earrings, gold-inlaid eastern pearl earrings, red gold pearl pendants , red jadeite bead earrings, coral bracelets, twisted silk silver bracelets, silver silk double-button bracelets, gold inlaid jade bracelets, jade hairpins with lotus patterns, white jade wrench fingers, black pattern jade and a necklace for children playing in the water, these I want it all.

Third sister, take another look, see if there is anything else you want to buy, shopkeeper, do the math, how much are these worth? "Xie Fanri looked around at the gold and silver jewelry in front of him, he put aside the things he thought were good and satisfied, and prepared to buy them.

The price was also marked next to each piece of gold and silver jewelry. Xie Fanri estimated that the things he bought would cost almost 500 taels of silver.

Among them, the most expensive ones are the white jade ring finger, the Xuanwen jade and the necklace of Futong playing in the water. These three items accounted for more than 200 silver coins.

The remaining bracelets, earrings, earrings, and hairpins can be bought for a few taels of silver for the cheaper ones, and range from a dozen or so taels of silver for the more expensive ones.

"It's almost enough. If you buy any more, you won't have the money to pay the bill. Our sisters can't wear so many. You must have bought Sister Fanyu and Fanwen in these hairpin bracelets and pendants.

Shopkeeper, if you count the money, we can go home after paying the bill. "Xie Fanchen looked around at the things Fan Ri Pa pulled out to buy, and seeing that he was thoughtful and had bought everything from head to ears to hands, she nodded and felt that it was almost done.

If they have spare money in the future, they can go to the county to buy again. After all, the town is not as prosperous as the county, and there are naturally more good things in the county.

The shopkeeper of the silver building saw that the boy bought all the things that were picked up, and the shopkeeper's face showed a look of joy, this is a big customer!

In the past, I was afraid that I couldn't do so much business in a month, but today I managed a month's turnover in one day, so why didn't this make the shopkeeper happy.

The shopkeeper of the silver building crackled and counted with his abacus.

After calculating for more than a quarter of an hour, he put away the abacus and said to Xie Fanri, "The total is 490 taels of silver. I will erase the mantissa at my discretion, and it is 490 taels of silver."

"Okay. Wrap these things up, put them in wooden boxes, and put them in wooden boxes. We'll take them home and return them to my sisters, brothers, and elders." Xie Fanri was very generous He took out the 500 tael silver note and slapped it on the table.

Xie Fanri raised his legs, looking like a nouveau riche.

"Okay! You are satisfied." The shopkeeper of the silver building took out the money swiftly, found the change and gave it to Xie Fanri, the shopkeeper of the silver building immediately called a few maids, and began to buy these jewelry for Xie Fanri, packaged them and packed them. .

After settling the money, Fanchen directly picked up the butterfly tassel hairpin, the curved butterfly hairpin, put the white jade earrings on his earlobe, and put a silver double-buckle silk-wrapped bracelet on his hand.

She didn't wear any jewelry on her head, earlobe or hands before, but now she puts on this jewelry, which not only adds a bit of beauty to Fan Chen, but also makes her feel a little bit happy.

No wonder people in the world say that women love beauty, gold and silver jewellery, and silk and satin, which is absolutely true.
