Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 140

It turned out that he wanted to exchange money, and he was not surprised by the tassel.

During this period of time, she finally realized that Ye Xi was from a poor family and attached great importance to such vulgar things as silver and money.

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, but still took the jade pendant given by Ye Xi and looked at it carefully.

As if to confirm something, he took the jade pendant into the compartment behind the counter and came out after a while, saying, "Madam, I'll give you five taels of silver for this jade pendant."

"But I spent ten taels of silver to buy this jade pendant. Can you give me a little more? Although the quality is not top-grade, the carving is exquisite." Ye Xi frowned.

"Well... then six taels of silver, I really can't give you more. Although your jade pendant is exquisitely carved, its quality is average.

Normally, I wouldn’t accept this as a money lender, but if it weren’t for the fact that you are a regular customer and wanted to do long-term business, I really wouldn’t accept this.”

The implication is that even if the other party spent money to buy this piece of jade, it would be considered as a sweet treat for Ye Xi.

Liusu actually felt a little disdainful of Ye Xi's behavior and wanted to step forward to persuade him, but when she thought about the fact that she had accompanied Ye Xi here just to save ten taels of silver, she felt that Ye Xi's vision was really narrow.

She, a servant, didn't even look at the ten taels of silver, and Ye Xi actually coveted the little interest on it, so she gave up the idea of ​​persuading her.

Ye Xi hesitated for a while, but finally agreed.

"Ma'am, please wait a moment. I'll go write a deed." said the shopkeeper, fiddling with something on the counter.

After hearing this, Liusu felt that the two people were making a big deal out of nothing. It was just a matter of six taels of silver, and she was too lazy to pay attention to it.

Little did she know that when she wasn't paying attention, the shopkeeper hid the other two pieces of paper in the deed and handed them to Ye Xi.

Ye Xi took it and calmly put it into the secret pocket of her sleeve. Liu Su had no doubt about this.

Ye Xi said that they were done and they went shopping. She also asked Liusu if she brought any money as she wanted to buy something.

Liusu naturally brought it with her. Every time she went out, she would bring silver with her to make it convenient for Ye Xi to buy things.

During this period of time, she had come to see clearly that Ye Xi really loved money, especially the silver in her hands, which was extremely precious. She would only spend it occasionally, and most of the time, the bill was paid by the servants.

For some reason, Ye Xi suddenly bought a lot of things this time, and they were all big items. The two guards' hands were full, and Liusu had to carry a lot of things as well.

The incident happened when they encountered a funeral procession of a wealthy family in the city. The funeral procession was huge.

The streets were crowded with people watching the excitement. Liusu just took a look at the team and the crowd and thought that she should persuade Ye Xi to go back home first. Unexpectedly, she couldn't find Ye Xi in the blink of an eye.

At first, she didn't realize the seriousness of the matter and thought that Ye Xi was just temporarily washed away by the crowd. She quickly asked two guards to look for her separately.

They searched nearby for a long time, but they still didn't see Ye Xi until the funeral procession had left.

At this time Liusu realized that something was wrong. If Ye Xi was just separated by the crowd, she should have stayed nearby and waited for them to find her. As a result, the crowd dispersed and she was still not there.

There was only one possibility, Ye Xi also followed the crowd and dispersed.

Liusu immediately thought of Ye Xi who had acted like a demon in the past. How could a young lady like that bow her head so easily? It turned out that she was careless.

She immediately thought that the person might have left the city, so she asked a guard to go find the adult, and she and another guard rushed out of the city to see if they could intercept the person outside the city.
