Chapter 30 Buying a Mirror and a Hairpin
Shen Yueqiao walked over and saw that it was an old woman selling some rare Western toys in the local area. For example, the old woman was trying hard to sell the glass bottles in her hand to a woman in silk. Shen Yueqiao felt bored, but saw a mercury mirror on the stall. She picked up a mirror directly. This mirror was small and exquisite, which was convenient to carry and clearer than the local bronze mirror.
While selling glass vases, the stall owner carefully observed the customers in front of the stall.
The woman in silk quickly paid for the vase. She looked at Shen Yueqiao who couldn't let go of the small mirror and said with a smile, "Are you going to buy it back to please your husband?"
When Shen Yueqiao heard the question, he looked up at the square-faced woman with a strong figure and a resolute appearance, nodded, and said, "What the lady said is very true."
The stall owner was very clever. Upon hearing the conversation between the two, he immediately said, "My lady, you have a good eye. This is a Western magic mirror. It takes very clear pictures. The more you look at a person, the more beautiful he becomes. If you buy it home, your husband will surely be grinning from ear to ear!"
Shen Yueqiao smiled brightly when he heard this, thinking about how happy Lin Hongle was when he got the small mirror, and asked directly: "I wonder how much it costs?"
When the stall owner heard the inquiry, he knew there was hope for a sale, and with a smile on his face like a chrysanthemum, he replied: "I used to charge you ten taels of silver, but today, seeing that the lady loves her husband so much, I will only charge you eight taels."
When Shen Yueqiao heard this, he immediately put down the mirror in his hand, shook his head and said, "Forget it, this mirror is too expensive."
"Madam, this product has been shipped from the West, so of course it is more expensive. You get what you pay for." The stall owner lobbied with all his might.
"Forget it, forget it. I just spent almost all my money in the silk shop. It would be a hassle to go back and forth to get the money." Shen Yueqiao said and made a gesture to leave.
"Madam, Madam!" The stall owner hurriedly grabbed Shen Yueqiao. She had mostly looked and bought little this morning. Moreover, on the east side, most of the people who were in charge were collecting some urgently needed fruits and vegetables at the stalls. These people did not have the spare money to buy these things from her. It was a complete mistake for her to come here today.
"Look, I'm about to close my stall. If you really want it, I can give you a discount of one or two taels of silver." The stall owner said with a look of pain on his face as if his flesh was being cut.
"It's still too expensive. I only have three taels of silver on me and I still can't afford it." Shen Yueqiao shook her head regretfully and said in a low voice that only she, the stall owner and the square-faced woman could hear.
Seeing that Shen Yueqiao was rich and didn't look like someone who needed money, the stall owner thought that what she said was true. Although these goods were indeed shipped from the West, they were bought very cheaply. This small bronze mirror was bought for only 300 coins.
"Okay," the stall owner said with a painful look on his face, "Since I see that you and the lady are destined to be together, I will sell it to you for three taels."
"No, I need another tael of silver to rent a car to go home." Shen Yueqiao continued to shake his head.
"Okay, my lady. It's my blessing to make friends with a noble person like you." As if afraid that Shen Yueqiao would lower the price again, the stall owner wrapped the mirror and handed it to Shen Yueqiao without waiting for her to speak.
Shen Yueqiao took the mirror and happily took out two taels of silver and handed it over.
"Lady, please come and patronize my business next time!" the stall owner reminded her.
"That's for sure." Shen Yueqiao nodded, then looked at a ruby hairpin on the stall and asked, "How much is this hairpin?"
"Madam, this hairpin cannot be sold for just one or two taels of silver!" The stall owner looked alert.
"How many taels?" Shen Yueqiao asked, blinking his innocent eyes.
"Twenty taels." The stall owner answered directly.
Shen Yueqiao didn't say anything, but looked at the small box next to him and said, "If I buy a hairpin, can you give me a box as a gift?"
The stall owner thought that Shen Yueqiao had no money anyway, and seeing that there were not many people at the stall, he smiled generously and said, "Of course, of course."
These boxes are not valuable anyway, I bought them for fifty cents each.
Shen Yueqiao nodded and said, "Five taels of silver for this hairpin."
The price is between being able to sell and not being able to sell. This hairpin is a local product, but the ruby on it was brought back from the West and then inlaid on the hairpin using inlay techniques. Including the labor cost, the total cost is only two taels of silver.
"Madam, don't you have no money?" the stall owner asked hesitantly. She didn't have time to wait for Shen Yueqiao to go home for the money.
"I'm out of money." Shen Yueqiao nodded, took out a five-liang silver note from his sleeve and shook it in front of the stall owner, saying, "But I have silver notes."
Stall owner:……
"Okay, just consider it as making friends with Nujun!" The stall owner nodded decisively, put the hairpin into the box, and handed it to Shen Yueqiao.
Shen Yueqiao took the box with a smile. Shen San next to her was stunned. Her master has always spent money like water. When did he learn to bargain?
The square-faced woman who witnessed all this also laughed and said, "My lady, you really got a good price. I admire you."
Shen Yueqiao just smiled and then politely left.
