Chapter 366: Collecting Money
After all, this family is not small, with two people and two children. If they encounter those unruly people, they don't want to confront them head-on and suffer losses.
The few people walked very quickly. Aunt Wu was very anxious at this time. It was too late for her to call her family back. She was thinking quickly in her mind what to do.
Zhuzi and Liu's father didn't care what she said and left the yard and walked back.
"Brother Zhuzi, Master, please wait. Don't go..."
Aunt Wu wanted to catch up and say something, but the person in front of her didn't give her a chance and even ran forward.
Lin Keyu and Liu Xiaolu were running in the middle, chatting leisurely. "Hahaha, we look like we're being chased by a dog."
"Isn't it just a dog?"
"Hahaha...you two young masters and young ladies, run quickly. If their family members come back and want to attack us, we may not be able to defeat them. These days, some people will do anything for money and benefits."
"Yeah, got it, let's run."
Zhuzi was in good health. At the end, it was Father Liu who was panting the most. But he was no exception, after all, he was old. Lin Keyu had to exercise every day, and Liu Xiaolu was also a person who could not sit still.
Aunt Liao saw a group of people coming in from the back door, all of them panting, and took the initiative to bring them to the main room and poured them tea. "Why are you so breathless and tired? It won't be so tiring to walk along this path. It's just that the road is a little difficult to walk on."
"We were chased by a dog! Hahaha!"
"Dog? I haven't heard that the farm down there has dogs!"
"Evil dog!"
Aunt Liao was not much more. At this time, the family members came back one after another. Two boys in their teens and a five-year-old girl stood obediently on the side. Aunt Liao introduced them, "These are my grandson and granddaughter. You should call them Master and Young Master Miss."
The three of them called for help obediently, and the little girl could speak very fluently.
Liu Xiaolu still liked the soft and sticky little sister very much, and took out a piece of maltose wrapped in oil paper and handed it to her. The little girl looked at Aunt Liao, and Aunt Liao nodded, "Xiaohua, you have to say thank you, Miss."
"Thank you, miss."
"You're welcome."
Zhuzi felt that it was not good for them to stay too long, and some things could not be delayed, so he said directly to Aunt Liao, "Aunt, if people from the village ahead come over, you should say that they have not seen us since we came this morning. We have something urgent to do, so we are leaving first."
Aunt Liao had also heard about some of the things that happened in the previous farm. After all, the tenants knew each other privately and had contact with each other, and occasionally some gossip would be passed on.
There was nothing their family could do but to manage their own home.
"Okay, you guys go ahead and leave. I know what to say. I'll say hello to the kids later."
Zhuzi took Liu's father and a few others and left in a horse-drawn carriage.
"Master, if you don't like the servants of that family, just return them or sell them when the time comes. I went to see Master Shen yesterday to find out the price. If you buy both farms together, Master Shen will charge a total of 3,800 taels, which is 300 taels less. This price is indeed very cheap. If Master Shen was not in a hurry to use the money, these two farms would definitely be sold for more than this price."
"Okay, we won't be taken advantage of. We'll just give the family to you and let you do whatever you want with them. The money from the sale will be our thanks to you."
Zhuzi does this. Even though the family is a bit lazy and greedy, they can still make some money. Apart from the commission to the pawnbroker, the rest is his. "Okay, thank you for the reward. It's very convenient for me to handle it."
The two men finalized the matter on their way back. Liu's father first gave him 500 taels as a deposit, and agreed to give the rest when they went to the brokerage firm to transfer the ownership and get the deed three days later.
Father Liu went to the auction house today to inquire about the situation. He also asked someone when he went back yesterday. It just so happened that the auction house was holding an auction at the end of the month.
There haven’t been any good items for sale at auction houses lately, and every auction that has been held has been quite dull.
The steward of the auction house was also very worried. Unfortunately, his subordinates did not receive any good things when they went out. Just as he was sighing, Father Liu and his group came in.
The butler saw that the group was dressed very simply and had no mood to receive them personally, but he had sent all the shop assistants out to find sellers and collect rare treasures. There was really no one to use, so he could only put on a professional smile again and go forward to receive the guests.
"Sir, are you here to buy or sell something?"
Father Liu took out an exquisite box from his arms. The modern craftsmanship had been baptized by the years, and the carving technique was also novel and unique. The moment the box was taken out, the butler noticed it immediately.
His eyes suddenly lit up.
"Boss, I have something here. Please find someone to appreciate it. I want to put it up for auction!"
"Okay, okay. Our auction house is the only one in the city. It's also the only one in Zhongzhou. We have a good reputation. You can trust us with your items. We will definitely sell them for a good price."
The shopkeeper took the box and started looking at it without opening it.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
This jewelry box is made of fine Huanghuali wood with clear and beautiful surface texture. The unique pattern frame is carved around the box body, highlighting its noble temperament. The relief pattern on the lid is lifelike, showing the exquisite craftsmanship.
The size is moderate, not too small to look small, nor too large to look bulky. In addition, there is a transparent colored glaze strip just above the lid when the box is unlocked, which allows the wearer to see a crystal clear bracelet inside, allowing the wearer to see the jewelry inside without opening the box. The craftsman who designed and made this jewelry box is really talented.
"Sir, this box is really beautifully made. To be honest, I can vaguely see that the bracelet inside must be in good condition without even opening it. Don't worry, our Su Family Auction House will definitely help you sell it at a good price."
"The shopkeeper..."
"Master, my last name is Su, and I am the steward of the Su Family Auction House. What is your last name? Which big family are you from? You look like you are from another place. I don't know all the families in the capital, but I have a general idea of more than 90% of them."
"Butler Su has a good eye. My last name is Wang, and we are indeed from the northwest border. This bracelet was obtained from a trade at the border. If it weren't for the fact that the situation over there is so bad,
Our family will not settle down in Zhongzhou. We have quite a few people in our family and the expenses along the way are indeed quite high. We will not take out treasures like heirlooms unless it is absolutely necessary.
We were able to find the auction house because a classmate of ours who came to the provincial capital to take the exam recommended it to us. We are about to leave for the provincial capital to take the college entrance exam again."
