Chapter 25: If there is a fight or trouble, can we not come to the inn?
Wang Ye came to Cuilifang to sell his sword in order to make up for the fifty taels of silver he lost yesterday.
As a result, the man only gave fifty taels.
He lost fifty taels and earned fifty taels back.
So after all your hard work and efforts, you end up with nothing?
Thinking of this, Wang Ye became extremely angry!
"Look! Look!"
Looking at Wang Ye's appearance, Shopkeeper Qian smiled and said, "Your face changes when you mention money. You are indeed a money-loving Wang!"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Seeing the smiling face of Shopkeeper Qian, Wang Ye waved his hand and said, "Don't I know the ins and outs of doing business, Mr. Qian?"
"These two swords are made of top-quality materials and are extremely sharp. If you melt them into molten iron and recast them into a different shape, they will be top-notch hard goods."
"Then you can sell it to those blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigners or the sons of wealthy families. By then, you can sell the sword for three hundred taels!"
"You're giving me fifty taels for two bundles each. Do you really think I'm a young man who doesn't know anything?!"
As he spoke, Wang Ye crossed his arms over his chest and kept gathering his strength.
"Okay, okay."
Seeing Wang Ye's luck, Shopkeeper Qian said with a smile: "I said I was joking with you, but who knew you would change your face when you mentioned money? You are so ignorant!"
"After all, these two swords were obtained from unjust sources. I will give you at most 60 taels for each sword, so a total of 120 taels for both swords. How about that?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Manager Qian gave his final offer.
"Are you serious?"
After hearing what Manager Qian said, Wang Ye grinned.
He had been in the underworld for many years, so he naturally knew that weapons of unknown origin could not be sold at a high price.
Wang Ye would be very satisfied if he could sell it for seventy or eighty taels of silver.
Now the shopkeeper Qian asked for one hundred and twenty taels.
In this way, he not only made up for yesterday's loss, but also earned forty or fifty taels. How could he not be happy?
"Bah, you Wang Caimi are just a dog-faced person"
Seeing Wang Ye's expression change so easily, Shopkeeper Qian rolled his eyes and said, "You are happy when I give you money, but you get upset when I don't. What the hell!?"
"You are such a reckless man, you know nothing!"
Looking at the shopkeeper Qian in front of him, Wang Ye said, "The world is bustling with people because of profit. Food, drink, and brothels all cost money. If I don't want it, how will I spend money in the future?"
"Go! Go! Go"
After hearing Wang Ye's words, Shopkeeper Qian took out three silver ingots, two large and one small, and placed them on the table: "If you live so clearly, you won't be afraid of not being able to sleep in the middle of the night!"
"Mr. Qian, have you been shaking recently?"
Wang Ye picked up the three silver ingots on the table, weighed them in his hands for a few times, looked at the shopkeeper Qian and asked, "Why do you carry so much silver with you?"
Wang Ye originally thought that Manager Qian would give him a banknote, but he didn't expect that this reckless man would actually give him silver directly.
"We have to put away our swords from time to time, and we need to carry some silver with us. It's not unusual to see something new."
Looking at Wang Ye impatiently, Shopkeeper Qian waved his hands and said, "Take the money and get out of here. I'm going to the back to melt the swords. Then I'll sell them to the foreign barbarians and make a thousand taels of silver. You old money-grubber will be so jealous!"
"Bah, do you think all foreigners are fools?"
Looking at the words of the shopkeeper Qian, Wang Ye said disdainfully: "The people in the Central Plains speak Mandarin better than you, and they are more clever than monkeys. Three or five hundred people will buy it, and thousands of taels of silver? Dream on!"
At this point, Wang Ye changed the subject and said, "But then again, there are so many Jianghu people gathered in your store. Did something happen recently?"
"you do not know?"
Looking at Wang Ye in front of him, Manager Qian said in surprise: "You are the owner of an inn, but it seems that you don't know anything except standing at the counter to collect money and visiting brothels!"
"So what happened?"
Looking at the appearance of Shopkeeper Qian, Wang Ye asked.
"Go back and ask Aji yourself..."
After hearing Wang Ye's words, Shopkeeper Qian picked up the two swords in front of him and said, "I'm going to melt the swords!"
After saying this, Shopkeeper Qian walked straight to the back.
"Tsk, let's see what I can do."
Looking at the appearance of Shopkeeper Qian, Wang Ye curled his lips and said, "Why don't you go to heaven if you are so arrogant?"
As he said that, Wang Ye put the silver and money into his arms, stood up and walked out of the Quelifang, heading straight for the Zuixianlou.
…
As soon as he returned to Zuixianlou, Wang Ye was stunned in front of the door.
In the hall before my eyes, several tables and chairs had been broken into pieces and turned into sawdust.
Broken bowls and chopsticks, as well as food and wine, were scattered all over the floor, and the air was filled with a strong smell of alcohol.
The scene looked as if it had been robbed and was in chaos at first glance.
! ! !
Seeing this scene, Wang Ye felt heartbroken.
The store was harmonious when I left, why did it become like this when I left?
Compared with the chaotic scene, what worried Wang Ye more were the broken tables and chairs.
This is all pure money!
I just went out to sell some silver and when I came back I saw this scene.
Is it so difficult to open your own store and make money ?
"Aji!"
Seeing all this, Wang Ye shouted.
"Eh!"
Hearing the sound, Aji hurried down from upstairs: "Boss, you're back?"
"How is this going?"
After seeing Aji, Wang Ye pointed at the broken table and chairs on the ground and said, "How come it became like this when I was out for a while?"
"Shopkeeper, you don't know..."
After hearing what Wang Ye said, Aji said, "As soon as you left, two groups of quacks came over. After they clamored for food and drink for a while, they started to have conflicts with each other."
"So the two sides started fighting, and that was it."
As he spoke, Aji stiffened his neck and looked helpless.
I am so...
After hearing Aji's words, Wang Ye felt extremely helpless.
How can the gangsters not come to the inn when they are fighting or making trouble?
"What about those quacks?"
Thinking of this, Wang Ye asked.
"In the middle of the fight, one group realized they were no match for the other, so they used their martial arts skills to escape. The other group chased after them, and then both disappeared."
"Have you paid for the meal?"
At this time, Wang Ye felt something was wrong.
"No……"
I am so...
Hearing this, Wang Ye felt dizzy.
This bunch of gangsters is really enough.
As soon as they eat in their own restaurant, friction arises, and when friction arises, fighting begins.
The most important thing is that this group of people just ran away when they couldn’t win, and they didn’t even give any money.
In the end, you have to bear all the losses yourself!
"Aren't you skilled in martial arts?"
After the world spun around, Wang Ye looked at Aji and asked, "Why don't you stop them?"
"Shopkeeper..."
Hearing Wang Ye's voice, Aji shook his head and said helplessly: "If they fight, they will only destroy these tables."
"If I intervene again, the three parties will be entangled in a war , and the losses will be even greater..."
