Zhou Zhoulang also said in a low voice: "Don't bother, Youli is witnessing, Uncle Shi is also a well-known figure in the county, he won't lie to us, and we will take the deed document to the county government to record it in a while. "
Man Bao was stunned and asked, "Isn't it a rest today?"
"Yes, but your fourth brother knows a clerk. Although the office is closed, but your fourth brother will go to find him. He should be willing to help with the record, so it can be done today."
Man Bao was very surprised, scratched his head and asked, "Is it in such a hurry?"
Zhou Zhoulang nodded with a smile, "Although we are not in a hurry, when we can make up our minds, we will naturally settle down and feel more at ease, and our parents are still waiting at home."
Shi Xiaoen has been standing aside waiting for them to discuss, their voices are very soft, but he can also hear some fragments of words.
He raised his eyelids and glanced at them, and said to Man Bao: "Your brother is right, it's better if you can make a decision, but my favor is worthless in the city now, and I can't find someone to help you with the paperwork , it is naturally the best that you can find someone.”
Man Bao blinked and nodded in response.
She had an intuition that there was something in it that she didn't know yet, so she decided to ask her brothers afterwards.
So she left, Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang hurriedly followed, saying: "We still have to buy something for Mr. Yang? That's not enough money."
Man Bao waved his hand generously and said, "It's okay, I have money."
She took out a string of money from her cloth bag and said, "Let's go and see what's on sale at the market."
"Buy some snacks." Bai Erlang suggested.
But Bai Shanbao said: "The dim sum made by their cook is even more delicious than those outside, and he won't eat the dim sum we send, what's the use?"
Man Bao nodded and said, "It's a pity that there are no fruits and vegetables in the market now, otherwise it would be good to buy some fruits."
The three children walked to the bookstore after strolling around. The three of them subconsciously looked in, and Man Bao saw a pen holder carved with a little monkey.
Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang also saw it, and the three of them rushed up to look together, and saw three little monkeys of different shapes on a pen stand, or their mouths, or tails, or feet connecting to the opening. It seems that the mouths, tails and feet of three monkeys are hanging pens.
The three children watched wow, their eyes sparkling.
The shopkeeper of the bookstore saw the acquaintance, and immediately came out from behind the counter with a smile, and looked at the three children with a smile, "Little master and little ladies are coming to the city again?"
The three nodded together, and Man Bao asked, "Uncle shopkeeper, do you still have a pen holder like this?"
"No more," he said with a smile, "this is the only one, there is no second one in Luojiang County."
The three of them were so sorry, they reached out and touched the pen holder at the same time, expressing one meaning at the same time—want it!
The shopkeeper laughed so hard that his eyes almost narrowed, and asked: "The two young masters and young ladies are really discerning. This pen holder is very rare, and I have been begging for it for a long time."
The three of them had a bad feeling when they heard this, Bai Shanbao withdrew his hand and asked, "What is the price of this pen stand?"
The shopkeeper smiled and stretched out two fingers and said, "Two taels of silver."
Now Man Bao withdrew his hand reluctantly, saying: "The wood used is very common."
"It's just because it's only two taels of silver. If the material is exquisite, it's more than just two taels with this kind of carving." The shopkeeper pointed the pen holder at the three people, pointed at the auspicious clouds and the lifelike monkey on it, and said: " As far as this carver is concerned, if the craftsman uses high-quality red sandalwood, it can be sold for twenty taels."
Man Bao stared, how many cows can he buy
Bai Erlang looked away reluctantly, and asked Bai Shanbao and Man Bao, "Do you want to buy it?"
Bai Shanbao thought for a while, and said: "We have accepted him to take care of him for a long time, and it is also appropriate to give him a valuable gift."
Man Bao thought about it, and looked at the shopkeeper first, "Can it be cheaper?"
The shopkeeper looked at them in surprise, "You want to buy together?"
Shouldn't it be bidding
The three of them nodded together, and said: "We want to give it away, Uncle Shopkeeper, you can make it cheaper, just sell it to us for one tael and a half, as it happens that we can also distribute it, one and a half taels of silver per person."
The shopkeeper's eyeballs were about to pop out, and he stared at Man Bao and said, "There's no one who bargains like that. If you cut it, you'll get a half of it. No, no, two taels... At least I'll give you one, two, or nine hundred dollars."
Bai Shanbao: "One to two to six hundred dollars."
"Just one, two, nine hundred dollars."
Bai Erlang said: "Then add another hundred Wen, one, two, seven hundred?"
Bai Shanbao and Man Bao wanted to step on his feet, but there was no barrier between them and the shopkeeper, so it was not easy to step on him quietly.
The shopkeeper said with a smile: "One, two, nine hundred."
Under the soft and hard pausing of the three people, the shopkeeper finally gave in and gave them one, two, or eight hundred dollars.
The three of them started to pool money.
While wrapping gifts for them, the shopkeeper asked, "Who are you giving this to? It's really quite generous."
Luojiang County is very small, let alone anything over one tael, anything over five hundred yuan is considered a big item.
The three children pooled their money together to buy such an expensive gift, even the well-informed shopkeeper was a little surprised.
Bai Shanbao said: "To the magistrate."
The shopkeeper couldn't help squinting his eyes, watching the three children nodding repeatedly, "There is a future, there is a future."
At a young age, I knew that gift-giving was a relationship.
The three of them didn't know what the shopkeeper was thinking, they took the presents and went back to find Zhou Dalang and the others. They felt that such an expensive gift could not be given away for nothing, so they decided to go earlier so that Master Yang's kitchen could prepare their lunch.
Zhou Dalang and the others had already waited in Lizheng, signed the contract under his witness, and handed over the one hundred and twenty taels of silver for the purchase of the shop to Shi Xiaoen in front of Lizheng.
Lizheng watched them finish handing over, took the red envelopes from Shi Xiaoen and Zhou Dalang, and walked away with his hands behind his back. Before leaving, he watched Shi Xiaoen shook his head and sighed, but didn't say anything.
When Man Bao and the others came back, Shi Xiaoen had also left, and Zhou Dalang and the others were leading people up and down to clean up the shop.
Man Bao ran in and asked, "Have you signed the document? Where is it? Show me."
Xiaoqian laughed and said, "I have given it to your second brother and fourth brother to take it to the county government for recording. What did you buy for the magistrate?"
Man Bao coughed lightly and said, "We chipped in and bought him a pen holder."
"Did you only buy the pen stand? You should buy some snacks and bring it with you," Xiaoqian said, "It's not impolite to be a guest at someone's house."
In Xiaoqian's opinion, pen holders are very cheap things. The pen holders used by the children in their family are all made by Zhou Yilang with bamboo, which is very simple.
Man Bao didn't dare to tell them how much the pen holder cost. She looked around, and everyone thought she was in the way, so she walked out, "Then I'm leaving."
"Let's go, let's go," even Xiao Qian waved his hands, "But don't play too late, Shen Shi will be back at the latest."
Knowing that the three children were always followed by Daji, she was very relieved.
