Chapter 325 There Are So Many Thieves in the Capital ([-])

Mi Xiaowan is still a little wary of someone of unknown origin.

"That's right, there are a lot of bad guys now, little girl, you'd better be careful!" The shop owner gave the middle-aged man a sideways look, and the meat in his mouth must not make him turn up.

The middle-aged man smiled. "Little girl, you don't have to be afraid. I'm not a bad person. It's just that your accent sounds like someone from Luzhou, and I'm also from Shouxian County, Luzhou. There are at least 15 taels of silver in the pawn shop, and seven taels of silver is really a bit low!" The middle-aged man glanced at the shop owner and continued. "I think you are in good health. Come to my shop and be a fire girl. After paying your wages today, you will be the clothes on your body at that time. Find a caravan as a partner. A dozen taels The money is enough for you to know Luzhou!"

This man is indeed speaking with the accent from Luzhou. As the saying goes, when a fellow countryman sees a fellow countryman, his eyes are full of tears. Hearing a familiar local accent in this unfamiliar place will make everyone feel a little cordial, and Mi Xiaowan naturally agrees. No exception, so I believed the man's words a little bit, and what the man said later was also reasonable, but guarding against others is indispensable, and the better things sound, the more worthy of attention.

"Okay, good, but I'm in a hurry to go home, how about you look at this, you help me pay for the meal first, and then you go to the pawn shop with me, and I will pay you back the meal after pawning the clothes , do you think it's okay?" Mi Xiaowan asked.

The man smiled, this little girl is quite sneaky. "it is good!"

The man agreed so readily, and Mi Xiaowan's heart was settled. If he really had a plan, he would definitely kill her and let her go to work. Who put her in a weak position now.

In this way, Mi Xiaowan followed the man to the pawn shop. On the way, Mi Xiaowan borrowed money from the man to buy a set of coarse bunts. In this way, Mi Xiaowan felt more at ease with the man, and started talking .

During the conversation, Mi Xiaowan knew that the man's surname was Shi, and he was a talented scholar. After passing the exam, he didn't have the mentality of studying hard like other scholars, but directly changed careers and started working as a shopkeeper in other people's shops. Well, for so many years, he has become a little famous in this industry, and this time someone invited him to come to the capital to be the shopkeeper.

"There's a pawnshop here, go in!" Shopkeeper Shi's bar, Mi Xiaowan, delivered to the pawnshop, and turned to leave.

"Hey! Uncle Shi, I haven't paid you back yet!" Mi Xiaowan called to stop shopkeeper Shi.

Shopkeeper Shi shook his hand and smiled. "Fellows from the village, don't take it to heart if it's only a hundred and ten coins!"

"Yes." Mi Xiaowan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by shopkeeper Shi.

"It's nothing to worry about. If you really want to pay me back, then you can give the money to my old parents in Shou County after you go back!" Shopkeeper Shi said, and then he said. "If there is any trouble, remember to come to Chengjiazhuang outside the south gate to find me!"

After talking about shopkeeper Shi, he turned around and wanted to leave.

After Mi Xiaowan thanked him again, she also turned around and went into the pawn shop. Knowing the address of shopkeeper Shi, there are many opportunities to repay him in the future. The key is that she has to go home now, and only after she returns home will she have the opportunity to repay him!
13 taels of silver, Mi Xiaowan carefully put into the pocket of the fur coat, this is her hope to go home!
