NOVEL NEXT Chapter 6 The gift of apology
"Also...can you allow me and my brother to go back to the capital? It will be a long journey, and we need to buy some things to carry with us, or some dry food to satisfy our hunger." Ye Qingran rolled his eyes and whispered, "We promise that we will If I come back within two hours, my family will be here, and I will definitely not run away."
"When I come back, how about I bring two more jars of good wine for the officer and my brothers?"
Ye Qingran waited for the official's answer. If he was a smart person, he would not stop him.
Sure enough, after a while, the official nodded and said: "Then please pay attention to the time, don't be late."
"Don't worry." Ye Qingran smiled, then turned around as if he had thought of something, "I have been deposed. Just call me Ye Qingran, or Miss Ye. I feel a little sick when I hear those two words."
She pointed at her stomach, strode towards Ye Zhuoyu, grabbed his arm, "Let's go back with me."
Ye Zhuoyu had just been unshackled by the officers and soldiers, and he was in a daze. He wanted to shake off Ye Qingran's hand, but he couldn't. When his sister turned around, her eyes were red, and she looked as weak as a little white rabbit, so he didn't dare. He couldn't move, so he could only say in a choked voice, "What do you want to do again! Don't involve dad anymore!"
"I know that I was wrong in the past."
Ye Qingran did not refute, but hurriedly quickened his pace and walked in front, "When I came out of Yaowang Valley, I didn't know what the love between men and women was. I was coaxed by him and harmed my father and brother. I just lost my memory. I will not do it again."
"The Northland is not a bad place. My brother and father have been there before. They should know that the people there are simple and honest, and it is located on a plateau. If we go there, we might be able to open up a new world. The master of this capital city, I don't know When will it move?"
Ye Qingran said rebellious words, and Ye Zhuoyu hurriedly covered her mouth, "Don't talk nonsense!"
"Brother still cares about me, otherwise he wouldn't secretly go to the Prince's Mansion every year to give me my favorite osmanthus cake, and Hongxing is not allowed to tell me, right?"
There was such a period in the memory of the original owner, but the original owner did not think of the clues.
Ye Zhuoyu's face turned red, he coughed twice and was noncommittal.
"Except for my brother, even my parents don't know that I like to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake." Ye Qingran bowed down and blessed himself in a decent manner, "Thanks to my brother's blessing, I have finally gained a little bit in these hard days. So sweet."
She thought for a moment and put her hands in her arms.
She closed her eyes and searched back and forth in the space, and finally found the two swordsmanship essentials brought out from the palace library. She handed them to Ye Zhuoyu, "Brother is obsessed with swordsmanship. This may help you improve. It can be regarded as an apology gift from my sister." ."
"This! This! Where did you get it?"
"This has been lost for a long time! You can't buy it even if you spend a lot of gold! I can't get it!"
Ye Zhuoyu was a martial arts fanatic, so he immediately stood there and turned over it endlessly. Ye Qingran looked at the sky. There was not much time left for them, but they could not afford to waste it. "We will discuss this matter another day. Brother, it is better for me to go back to the capital with me to buy some things. You will listen to me on everything later. Mo If you want to speak out, when necessary, just say something expensive!"
When buying something, you have to bargain with the good guy and the bad guy.
Even at this critical moment, after Ye Qingran said it, Ye Zhuoyu took the sword skill into his arms and hid it carefully, "It's not because of this that I won't be angry with you! Don't get me wrong!"
"Yes Yes Yes."
Ye Qingran nodded, entered the city gate, dragged him into a grain store, looked at the busy figure of the shopkeeper, and asked: "How many rice and noodles do you still have in the store? I want them all! Red beans, mung beans, adzuki beans, corn There are other grains that are also rounded!”
The shopkeeper turned around and looked at them, waved his hand and said, "Go, go, where did the little baby come from?"
"I don't have time to play with you! Don't delay my business!"
When Ye Qingran saw that he ignored him, he took out two golden melon seeds from his sleeve and threw them on the table. The crackling sound attracted the shopkeeper's attention. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately put on a flattering expression and poured the brewed tea. He brought it over and said, "Please take your seats."
"You have time to talk business with me now?"
Ye Qingran sat down holding her skirt, took a sip of tea and put it aside. She scanned the environment in the store. If she remembered correctly, this was the largest grain store in the capital.Naturally, the shopkeeper did not dare to be negligent and apologized repeatedly, "I am too blind to recognize the truth! Do you want to ask the two young masters, do you want to buy everything in my shop?"
"nature."
"Since this is a big business, I'll give you the lowest discount price for rice and noodles, three taels of silver and ten shi of rice. How about that?" The shopkeeper gestured with the numbers and looked at Ye Qingran's reaction.
The purchases in the General's Mansion are all done by the servants, and there is a fixed share in the palace. Neither Ye Qingran nor Ye Zhuoyu know the market conditions, but Ye Qingran knows how to read people's words and see the little calculation in the shopkeeper's mind. , smiled unhurriedly and said: "Since the shopkeeper doesn't want to do this business sincerely, then we won't keep any more."
"The quantity of goods I need is huge, and other companies are afraid that they will give me the lowest discount and still give me something. I have a lot of time to choose slowly, so as not to delay the shopkeeper's business. I wish you a prosperous business!" Ye Qing Ran narrowed his eyes and blinked at Ye Zhuoyu. He didn't understand the intention for a long time, thinking in his heart, the official only gave them two hours, how to choose?
It wasn't until Ye Qingran was so angry that she stepped on his foot that Ye Zhuoyu received the signal.
He pretended to rush out and said, "Let's go! Sister, let's go see another house!"
"You two, please stay!"
The shopkeeper originally wanted to bet that they were a young man and a young lady from a rich family who didn’t know how much food, salt, firewood, and rice cost, but now it seems that his wishful thinking came to nothing. “Miss, you always have to bargain when doing business. Why don’t you come up with one and let me see if it can be done?” ?”
"One tael of silver and ten stones of rice."
"There are about thirty stones of rice and twenty stones of noodles in your backyard. I will give you five taels of silver. You can also give me some yellow rice and corn. The mung beans and red beans all look old. I'm afraid I won't be able to sell them. , why not give me some too!" Ye Qingran, who is very good at doing business, gave him a little sweetness, "We will often need large quantities of goods in the future, and then they will all come to you. Isn't profit coming back? It's so unrestrained. You should understand the principle of long-term fishing for big fish!”
Ye Qingran said shrewdly and competently, and waited silently for the shopkeeper's answer.
The shopkeeper made some calculations in his mind, fisted his hands and sighed, "Okay, I'm impressed by the little lady's eloquence! I'll do what you said, pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, and get both money and goods!"
