Chapter 16 A deal is done

Hearing that Baitang was coming, Master Xue immediately greeted him out of the gate.Master Xue is truly grateful and admires Baitang. Thanks to Baitang's reminder and teaching, his son has not grown into a rich man, but has become a qualified heir of the Xue family. What's more, his life was indirectly saved by Baitang. He is the great benefactor of the Xue family.Aunt Xue also got busy, leading her servants to tidy up the guest house.But the master told her that the guests who came here were not just the son's enlightenment Mr., not only the great benefactor of the Xue family, but also his own status must be extraordinary, at least the Xue family could not compare.

"Mother, what kind of person is Mr. Bai?" Eight-year-old Xue Baochai was very curious about the master that his brother often mentioned.Xue Baochai's face is like a silver basin, her eyes are like water apricots, her lips are not smudged but red, her eyebrows are not painted but green, she has a different kind of charm than Lin Daiyu, a little beauty.

"Mr. Bai is young and promising, with an extraordinary family background, and both civil and military. Your eldest brother learned his kung fu from Mr. Bai." Aunt Xue has a high affection for Bai Tang, and she has a faint awe.

"Mother, if I want to ask Mr. Bai to be my husband, can I do it?" Xue Baochai asked.Because the parents are complete and the elder brother is responsible, Sister Bao at this time is not as scheming as in the original book.She didn't want Baitang to be her husband because Baitang and Baitang's so-called background would bring benefits to her, but purely out of admiration for the people her brother admired.

"This..." Aunt Xue was in a dilemma. If it was an ordinary person, just giving money would naturally satisfy her daughter's wish, but Baitang is not an ordinary person!
"At that time, if you behave better, I will sincerely ask for it for you. I hope Mr. Bai can accept you!" Aunt Xue said uncertainly.

Sister Bao nodded again and again: "I will definitely impress Mr. Bai!"

While the two mother and daughter were talking, Master Xue had already welcomed Baitang into the mansion.After the host and guests were seated, Baitang presented gifts to the Xue family: a set of glassware for Master Xue—three sets in total, one set for Lin Ruhai, and the remaining set for money; a pearl necklace for Aunt Xue; A small mirror for Sister Bao; for Xue Pan - a stainless steel fruit knife o(╯□╰)o, Xue Pan also likes it very much.

"This, is this a glass cup?" Master Xue stared intently at the glassware on the table. It was a set of four tall glasses and a glass bowl.Master Xue has been a businessman for many years, and it is not the case that he has not had glassware at home, and the Xue family only has a few collections, but this is the first time he has seen such crystal clear shaved vessels with such beautiful and natural patterns.From his point of view, this set of glazed vessels is absolutely worth tens of thousands of gold.

"Not bad!" Bai Tang nodded with a smile.

"This thing is too precious!" Master Xue's eyes moved from the glass vessel to the small mirror. The smooth and clear mirror reflected his face clearly, ten times and a hundred times better than the bronze mirror.

Another treasure.Master Xue's pupils shrank slightly, and his eyes turned to Aunt Xue's pearl necklace.This is quite an ordinary jewelry, but the pearls are the size of a thumb, rounder and bigger than the valuable South Sea pearls.The most special thing is that each one is almost exactly the same size, and the value of this necklace is not lower than that of glass vessels.

"Master Bai, these things are too expensive..." Master Xue took a deep breath and forced himself to look away from the few gifts.After all, I have seen good things before, and I will not lose my composure because of the rarity and preciousness of the gift.

"It's okay, I still have a lot of things like this!" Baitang raised his lips, and the other party took the bait.She has long wanted to have Master Xue as a partner, and only the Xue family, who are imperial merchants, can eat these things.

"There are many more?" Master Xue was surprised, these are all rare treasures!

"Yes! I have a lot of glassware and pearl necklaces like these at home. This time I went out with three sets of glassware, ten pearl necklaces, some glass mirrors, and a bag of colored gemstones. A gift for someone."

cross!How rich is the Bai family?To give such a precious item as an ordinary gift?

"Can you open my eyes?" Master Xue asked.

You can't conjure up things out of thin air to scare people, so before Baitang came to this world, he bought an Adidas double travel bag to use as a disguise.Although it spoils the image a bit, at least the space will not be exposed.Baitang gave people the impression that he was a noble son with high martial arts skills, but he didn't want to be a fairy-like existence to be feared by others.

Seeing what Baitang took out, Master Xue's breath became short of breath.Seeing more than a dozen gemstones reflecting the charming brilliance, Master Xue's eyes sparkled.If these things are sold in Xue's shop, they will definitely cause a sensation and attract more customers.

"Master Bai, can you sell these items to me? I will definitely not let you suffer!" Master Xue said, swallowing his saliva.

"Master Xue, I'm not short of money!" Bai Tang said desperately.

"I understand, I understand." Master Xue said hastily, "Master Bai is not short of this money, but your things are really good, if Xue's shop can sell these treasures, it will definitely increase the popularity of Xue's shop. Mr. Bai, for Pan'er's sake, sell these things to me?"

Baitang was overjoyed, now Master Xue is begging her!Master Xue's appetite was whetted, so Baitang made an expression of "I'm not short of money, but seeing you are so sincere, I'll help you once" and said, "Okay! For Pan'er's sake , These things will be sold to you!"

Master Xue was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered his loyal subordinates to take away the items on the table, and asked the housekeeper to withdraw 10 taels of silver notes from the account room and hand them over to Baitang.Both of Baitang's eyes turned into ¥ symbols, and 3000 yuan was exchanged for 5 taels of silver. According to the ancient gold-silver exchange ratio, if all of them were exchanged for gold, it would be 5000 taels, which is about five hundred catties of gold.How much is it to exchange gold for RMB?Forgive Baitang's bad math.I grinned, no wonder you say that being a loser makes money!Just this trip, Baitang became a multi-millionaire.

"Master, is it true that you want to introduce beautiful women to me?" Xue Pan, who had been waiting beside the two of them, suddenly asked when he saw the transaction between Master Xue and Baitang.He was extremely curious about the beautiful woman Baitang said he would introduce to him!
"What beauty?" Master Xue asked suspiciously.

Bai Tang smiled slightly: "Master Xue, Pan'er is getting old too, and it's time to get married in two years. I wonder if Master Xue has a wife he likes?"

Master Xue hadn't thought of choosing a wife for his son yet, when he heard Baitang's question, he was stunned for a moment, and then he liked it: "Not yet! Mr. Bai has already helped Pan'er find someone?"
