Chapter 14, Chapter 14

Tang Yan originally just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of a few men extorting money, and find a logical excuse to enter the pawn shop.

Even if a few men didn't cooperate and didn't come to extort money, Tang Yan still had a second plan.

It turned out that she just regarded a few men as tool people, and she didn't have much emotion.

But now these guys are too cooperative, and Tang Yan who is cooperative is a little angry.

How big a face is this?How dare you ask for 20 taels of silver!
20 taels of silver doesn't sound like much, but she has lived in the village for several months and has a deep understanding of the concept of wealth in this world.

The wealthiest family in the village does not have more than ten ounces of money in savings.

And these ten hanging coins are exchanged for silver, which is about 7 or 8 taels.

Now these men are talking about 20 taels of silver, which is enough for ordinary people to live for more than ten years. This is too dark!

Although these men actually helped Tang Yan, Tang Yan was not prepared to show mercy to these men.

I saw Tang Yan touching his sleeves with a panicked expression. After fumbling for a long time, his face became more and more ugly. Finally, he touched all the places where he could put money all over his body, and then looked at the men with a face like he was about to cry. .

"Brothers, I don't know where the wallet on my body is! I used it an hour ago!"

The men glanced at each other, secretly saying that they were unlucky.

Such a good fat sheep seems to have been preempted by others.

The complexions of these people were not good, Tang Yan seemed to be terribly frightened, he hurriedly pointed to the pawn shop ahead, and begged for mercy to the men.

"Brothers, how much is the clothes on my body worth? I'll go to the pawn shop and pawn them off. Brothers, please don't break my legs!"

Tang Yan's clothes looked expensive.

But clothes are not fabrics. Rich people don't buy these second-hand luxurious clothes, and poor people can't afford them.

Even if a few men robbed Tang Yan's clothes directly, if they wanted to exchange them for money, they could only go to a pawn shop.

But the pawnshop shopkeeper can also know that the clothes are not from the right place by looking at their appearance.When the time comes to use this as an excuse to drive down the price, these men don't dare to offend the pawnshop shopkeeper who has someone behind them, so they can only admit it, and can't get a few dollars in exchange.

It would be better to let the original owner of the clothes exchange the clothes for free money. It would be more convenient for them to collect the money directly.

Two men came out of the crowd and escorted Tang Yan to the pawn shop.

It is human nature to join in the fun. Just now Tang Yan and a few men had a violent quarrel, and many ordinary people gathered around to watch the gossip.

Among them was the pawn shop boy.

When the boy saw it, he actually ate the melon and got on his own head, which was okay.

He hurriedly ran all the way back to report the situation to the shopkeeper.

So when Tang Yan was pushed into the pawnshop by two men, the shopkeeper with the goatee was already sitting behind the counter.

Tang Yan staggered for a while when he was pushed, then he looked back at the man who pushed her in, but he didn't dare to enter the pawn shop, and sneered slightly.

She straightened her clothes, straightened her back, raised her head slightly, and walked in front of the shopkeeper.

The goatee shopkeeper's eyes flickered slightly, and he didn't look like the pitiful little guy who was bullied to the point that he had no power to fight back.

Tang Yan didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

"I can pawn a treasure to your pawn shop at a very low price. But the request is to help me arrest the people who bullied me at the door and put them in jail. Do you have the ability to do this business at the pawn shop!"

Interest suddenly came into the eyes of the goatee shopkeeper.

Compared with the business of a piece of clothing, this kind of obviously cheap business is more in line with the shopkeeper's requirements.

He sat upright behind the counter with an unmoved expression on his face.

"We are capable of taking this order, but we just don't know if the treasure this young man is talking about is worth our pawnshop fee."

Without further ado, Tang Yan untied the bow on his chest.Put the long sword behind you on the counter, and then unwrap the rags wrapped around the sword layer by layer.

Seeing the shopkeeper who was pretending to be calm just now, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and finally stood up directly from behind the counter, grabbing the already shining golden sword.

Tang Yan did not stop the shopkeeper's actions, but said angrily.

"Those thieves want to extort my money, and even want to break my legs! Bah! Even if I throw away my money, I won't give in to someone like that! Since they want 20 taels, then I will give you this golden sword. You have 20 taels, but the premise is to put those people in jail and treat them well!"

Hearing the amount of 20 taels, and looking at the golden sword in his hand with exquisite patterns, precious gemstones and heavy weight, the shopkeeper almost nodded in agreement.

But there was still a trace of reason that kept the shopkeeper from making a decision directly.

The young boy in front of him, whether it was his clothing and temperament or the golden sword he took out, proved that his identity was definitely extraordinary.

If a child from a big family that the Lin family can't afford to offend has just finished their business, and then the adults of the other party's family come to him, they will obediently return the sword.

So this matter needs to be discussed with the second young master.

The shopkeeper asked the boy to serve Tang Yan with good tea and water, and he walked through the back door to find the second young master of the Lin family.

Of course, on the way to find the second young master, he also found a few yamen servants by the way, and arrested the guys at the door who wanted to extort Tang Yan's money back into prison.

Regardless of whether the business can be successful or not, a few street gangsters are insignificant, it is better to catch them back first, so as not to spend a lot of effort trying to catch them all after they disperse.

The men didn't know what happened in the pawn shop, they only knew that the fat sheep kid went into the Lin family's pawn shop, and when he came out again, the situation was reversed.So he thought he kicked the iron board and offended some distant relative of the Lin family.

The Lin family is very powerful in Huiyang County, these people are worried that it will be too late for their own lives, so naturally they dare not think about revenge.

……

The study of the second young master in the front yard of the Lin Mansion.

The shopkeeper told the second young master of the Lin family what happened just now.

Lin Zitao, the second young master of the Lin family, is a shrewd young man under 30 with a short beard.
He pondered for a while, then frowned and asked the shopkeeper.

"That sword is really as good as you said."

The shopkeeper bowed and nodded, raised his sword, his eyes were still shining.

"The villain has been working in a pawn shop for more than 10 years, and I feel that I have seen a lot of treasures, but that sword is so special. The whole body of gold is nothing, but the gems on the hilt are really the most gorgeous and exquisite that the villain has ever seen in his life. Also That carving, I have never known a master carver with such superb skills. The level of carving is far beyond what I usually see. It can be said that if this sword is used for a while, it will be worth tens of thousands of gold."

Lin Zitao nodded slightly.

He believed in the shopkeeper's professional judgment.

The identity of a person who can take out such a sword as a pawn must not be underestimated.

But so what?
Doesn't it take advantage of the door-to-door delivery?
He wanted to go and see for himself. If the shopkeeper was really as good as he said, wouldn't this sword be the best gift for the incoming third prince?

No matter what the identity of the person pawning the sword is, it is no higher than the royal family.What's more, they won't do anything to the Lin family because of a deal you like.
