A car accident, our family of three crossed

There was a gasp from the crowd.

"How much?" Someone thought he had heard wrong and asked again.

"Twelve taels."

Shuisheng still looked firm on the surface, but after seeing the reactions of the crowd, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

"Ten, ten taels? Is this chair worth ten taels of silver?"

"Of course my goods are worth the money. You also said that this chair is different from ordinary chairs. Scarcity makes things valuable. To be honest, this chair is currently only in my family. You can't find a third chair like this even if you go all over Pingyang County."

Even though what he said did make some sense, many people were still discouraged by the high price. There were quite a few people who were clamoring to try it out, but now they stopped clamoring.

They are all ordinary people. They can’t afford to pay for such expensive chairs if they break them.

Although they didn't dare to sit on the chair anymore, they were not in a hurry to leave. They all wanted to see what kind of person was willing to pay a high price for such a chair.

Their wait was not in vain, as a clear female voice came from outside the crowd.

"We want these two chairs."

scare--

There was another round of gasps from the crowd, and even Shuisheng almost couldn't stand still. He was a little dazed by this sudden situation.

Everyone made way for them, and a girl dressed as a maid came over with a few servants. She said to Shuisheng, who was still a little dazed, "We want both chairs. Here's twenty taels of silver."

After saying that, she handed a silver ingot to Shuisheng, then waved to the servants behind her. Several servants came forward and, in groups of two, moved the two chairs away.

Shuisheng held the silver in his hand, looked at the few people who had carried their chairs and walked out of the crowd, and was stunned and unable to come to his senses.

Sold it already? It was like a dream. He couldn't believe it. This overwhelming wealth almost made him dizzy.

The girl did not leave immediately, but picked up some small items. While everyone was trying out the chairs, she and the young lady had been watching in the carriage.

She noticed that there were many small gadgets on the stall here that caught her eye, and had long wanted to come down to take a look and buy some of her favorite gadgets. Coincidentally, the young lady was interested in the two chairs and wanted to buy them with a wave of her hand, so she also took the opportunity to come down to take a look.

"Hey, boss, I want this, this, this, and this."

The girl's clear and pleasant voice brought Shuisheng back to reality, "Ah? These little things are not worth much. If you like them, just take them. I'll give them to you."

The girl frowned unhappily when she heard this and said angrily, "We are a well-behaved family and we don't take advantage of others. Just tell me how much it is."

"Ah, this..." Shuisheng's heart skipped a beat because of the scolding. He took a quick glance at the items the girl had selected and said casually, "You, just give me twenty cents."

Seeing that he was so foolish, the girl laughed and scolded him, calling him a fool. She counted out twenty copper coins to him and left with her things.

When she got on a carriage waiting on the side, everyone realized that she was a maid from a wealthy family.

In the carriage, a girl dressed as a lady teased, "Are you satisfied now?"

"Yes, thank you miss for being willing to wait for Xianghuan." The little girl bowed playfully.

The carriage slowly left, and the people watching the fun at the stall couldn't help but tease Shuisheng.

"Stupid, these things are worthless, why don't you give them to us?"

"Tsk, if you're going to give anything as a gift, give it to a little girl. You're just daydreaming as a grown man."

Shuisheng's face turned red after being told that, and he chuckled foolishly a few times.

He Li was mixed in the crowd and also saw this shocking scene.

Twenty taels. She had never thought that Shuisheng could make so much money as a carpenter. Why hadn't she discovered this before? A chair could be sold for ten taels of silver. If there were a few more chairs, wouldn't that be...

She hurriedly left the crowd, not even thinking about going to the market, and walked straight out of the city gate. She had to go home quickly to tell Dazhu about this.

As for Song Ning and the others, after they had finished strolling around the street, they decided to start shopping. They came to the grocery store they had been to last time and started buying things, making the shopkeeper so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

After temporarily storing the items in the grocery store, they came out and saw several people carrying two chairs passing by them. Those two chairs looked so familiar.

"Is that our chair?" Mudun opened his mouth wide, a little bit unbelieving. He wondered if his elder brother had met a bully or been robbed.

Hang Shuheng seemed very calm: "It was sold so quickly, faster than I expected."

Song Ning was also happy about this and hurriedly greeted them, "Let's go shopping quickly and meet Shuisheng as soon as we finish shopping."

They bought almost everything they needed at the grocery store, then went to the fabric shop to pick out some fabric, and finally went to the stall where they bought pork last time.

Unexpectedly, the stall owner still remembered them. When he saw them coming, he greeted them: "Hey, big brother and big sister, you are here again?"

"Brother, do you still remember us?"

"That's right." The stall owner waved his hand and boasted, "I can remember everyone who has bought meat from me, Zhu Laosan. Besides, your family is so good-looking, it's hard not to remember them."

"Haha! Then you have a really good memory." Song Ning smiled politely.

This time, the amount of meat purchased was not as much as last time. In the end, Song Ning bought all the large ribs at a very low price.

The stall owner was so happy, as these bones were the biggest worry for all butchers. They were hard to sell, but they were reluctant to throw them away. Now someone suddenly bought them all, how could he not be happy!

After buying everything they needed, they started to head to the market to meet Shuisheng.

At this time, the people who had been gathering around the stall had already dispersed, and Shuisheng was the only one sitting in front of the stall, grinning foolishly from time to time.

"Brother." Mudun saw Shuisheng sitting in front of the stall from afar, shouted at him and ran over.

Shuisheng heard the sound of the wooden pier, looked up and saw him running towards him. Hang Shuheng and others were left behind by him for a short distance.

As soon as Mudun ran to the stall, he asked, "Brother, where are our chairs?"

"The chair is sold." Speaking of the chair, he started to laugh foolishly again, "Mudun, come here, pinch me."

"Pinch you? Why?"

"Just pinch me."

While they were talking, Hang Shuheng and the others walked to the stall. He tapped Shuisheng's forehead without any hesitation and asked, "How is it? Does it hurt?"

Shuisheng covered his forehead and was stunned for a while, then said foolishly: "It hurts, it hurts, this is real, I am not dreaming..."

He excitedly grabbed Hang Shuheng's hand and held up two fingers to him, "Uncle Hengzi, all the chairs have been sold. Twenty taels of silver, twenty taels of silver..."

It was not twenty wen, nor two taels, but twenty taels. How much goods would he have to sell to earn so much silver? How could he not be excited?

He let go of Hang Shuheng and hugged Mudun again, shaking him, almost making him dizzy, "Mudun, we've made money, we've made a lot of money..."

Seeing him so happy, Hang Shuheng and Song Ning smiled at each other.

"This child, is he so happy that he has gone silly?"
