Chapter 210: Being a Thief (2)
"No." But he answered anyway.

Xiao Lian immediately covered her mouth and smiled.

"Since you are so sincere, I will sell you four hundred catties of dried eel, but you must keep a low profile, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."

Mo Gao nodded obediently.

"Give me the money first." Yu Niang stretched out her slender hand, the white and tender palm glistening.

The corner of Mo Gao's mouth twitched fiercely, and then he took out the bank note, muttering, "Two taels of silver for one catty, 800 taels of silver for four hundred catties, here is the 800 taels of silver note."

Looking at the white banknotes in Yuniang's palm, the Xiaolian sisters were stunned.

"Let's go quickly, Lei Da and the others are traveling very fast." Yu Niang calmly put away the banknotes, and then drove away.

Mo Gao didn't talk nonsense, got up and walked out.

Xiaolian who came back to her senses swallowed her saliva, and then asked: "Sister-in-law, are these bank notes?"

Yu Niang looked at the bank note in her hand, and nodded lightly, "Yes."

"Did we really earn 800 taels of silver?" Xiao Jing couldn't keep calm, and her voice raised.

Yu Niang nodded again, "Don't worry, there will be more in the future."

In fact, when Mo Gao first proposed to buy dried eels, she knew that there would be such a time.But I didn't expect Mo Gao to buy these dried eels at a sky-high price of two taels of silver.Mo Gao has clearly left, but he appears here again, isn't it too strange?
When Brother Lei came back, there was only one bullock cart.

"Lei Da, what's going on here?" Xiao Lian asked in surprise, there were obviously two bullock carts, why was there only one left?

Lei Da walked up to Yuniang with some guilt, and said in a low voice: "Madam, I'm sorry, the son said that he would take those eels back to the capital, and the journey is quite far away. He asked you to sell him an ox cart. You have 100 taels of silver."

With that said, General Lei handed over the bank note.

Yu Niang took out the banknote with a calm face, the corners of her mouth slightly curled up.I knew that Mo Gao would do this, but this bullock cart can be exchanged for 100 taels of silver, which is quite worth it.

"After unloading, you drive the cattle to Zhang's mansion, and then come back to Fengmingxuan for dinner." After Yuniang finished speaking, she turned and entered Fengmingxuan.

The third brother Lei was stunned for an instant.

Eating at Fengmingxuan?

I looked up at the gorgeous door plaque, and then looked at the people in and out of the gorgeous clothes.The three of Lei Da couldn't help being extremely embarrassed, can they really eat here?

"Miss Xiao, I sincerely thank you for your help. If it weren't for the eels in your hands, my Fengmingxuan business would have plummeted." Shopkeeper He thanked Yuniang excitedly.

Yuniang shook her head and smiled faintly, "Shopkeeper He, you're being polite. I'm just a businessman, and I'll go wherever I have business. Today's dried rice field eels total 570 jin. Please settle the bill with shopkeeper He. "I left [-] catties of dried eels, and the shopkeeper He weighed the rest.

Shopkeeper He immediately called Mr. Account Manager to pay the bill.

"The total is 86 taels of silver plus seven hundred Wen." Mr. Account Manager quickly gave the result.

"Okay, okay, you can get the silver for Miss Xiao first, and I will definitely pay 87 taels of silver." Shopkeeper He said boldly.

Looking at Xiao Lian who is He shopkeeper, Xiao Lian is very upset.In fact, she didn't understand why her sister-in-law didn't directly sell these dried eels to Mo Gao. You must know that the price Mo Gao gave was two taels of silver per catty, which is too much difference, right?

Shopkeeper He generously gave Yuniang a sumptuous lunch.

"Sister-in-law, why did you sell these eels to Shopkeeper He? At first glance, he is a stingy person." After Shopkeeper He went out, Xiao Lian said dissatisfied.

Xiao Jing also nodded sharply in agreement.

Yu Niang just laughed, "Sixth Sister and Seventh Sister, in fact, buying and selling seems to be very simple, that is, you buy and I sell. But it is not the case, the mystery of which can only be realized if you truly understand it. What happened after tasting. Mo Gao knew us, and he came from the capital. Now he is in a hurry to buy dried rice field eels because he is in urgent need. And he is a well-known businessman in the capital, and he will not trade at a loss. , so the two taels of silver he gave is more than enough. But if you ask shopkeeper He to give the price of two taels of silver, it is completely impossible. If you look at the dishes on the table, the highest price is one tael of silver. Vegetables, if he can give the price of two taels of silver, he will not be able to afford it even if he loses it to death. Besides, Mo Gao made us a lot of money this time, but maybe there is only one chance a year, and shopkeeper He It is different, it is needed for a long time, and the price can only be higher and higher instead of lower and lower, which is very useful to us. When we do business, what we need to keep is the usual fair and reasonable price, and then to pursue higher profits."

The two Xiaolian sisters were a little confused and confused, but they nodded at the end, making Yuniang laugh with a seeming understanding and confusion.

When Lei Da and the others came back, Yu Niang wanted to let them sit down and eat together, but they thought they were servants and refused to sit down and eat together.

Yu Niang thought for a while, and agreed, and asked the waiter to set up an extra table in the wing room, and then shared a few dishes, and asked Lei Da and the three to sit down to eat, so it was barely resolved.

After the meal, Yuniang asked Lei Dasan to buy an ox cart. After all, it is very wasteful to only have an ox without an ox cart.

"Let's go to Zhang's mansion." Yuniang led Xiaolian and sisters towards Zhang's mansion.

Butler Wu was no longer seen at the gate of the Zhang residence, and Yuniang suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Seeing Yuniang approaching, the people at the gate of Zhang's mansion shouted excitedly, "Mrs. Xiao."

Xiao Lian and the two felt very miraculous. Is this mansion the mansion of Mr. Zhang?Is this too big?And those people at the door seem to know sister-in-law. Could it be that sister-in-law came here often back then?

The one who spoke was Dalin.

Yuniang was a little puzzled, why did Mrs. Xiaozheng just bring Butler Wu with her when she returned to the capital, and kept Dalin behind?

After entering the house, Yuniang asked, "Why didn't you go back to the capital with Mrs. Zheng?"

Dalin just laughed, looking a little silly, "My lord said that there are still some things that I need to stay and deal with, so I didn't go back. After a while, I will go back and report to my lord."

"What's the matter?" Yuniang was a little puzzled. Mrs. Xiao Zheng didn't mention any unfinished business. Could it be some ulterior secret?

Dalin shook his head, "I don't know either, this will only be known after the adults return to the capital."

The corners of Yuniang's mouth twitched, Mrs. Xiaozheng's handling of this matter is really... indescribable.
