After hoarding billions of goods and traveling through the book, he farmed in another world to suppo

Xiao Li walked closely behind him, all the way to the market in the west district. After watching him find a place to sell mountain products, he turned and left.

On the other side, Lu Yuan didn't notice that Xiao Li was following him all the way, but at the moment he left, he suddenly looked back the way he came with a sense of something.

Seeing the familiar but not familiar figure walking away, Lu Yuan suddenly felt sad.

Was he afraid something might happen to me on the way? Why didn't he tell me? If I hadn't looked back, I wouldn't have known he'd been following me all the way.

Apart from Little Daddy, no one in his life had ever been so kind to him, carrying such heavy things for him, sharing peaches that he never had the chance to eat with him, and even watching over him all the way...

At this moment, Lu Yuan suddenly didn't want to do what she said on the mountain, that if he didn't want to live with her, then let him divorce her. Instead, she wanted to...

I must find a way to hold on to such a good man. Even if he doesn't have me in his heart, I can't let him divorce me.

But how can we do this?

While Lu Yuan was selling mountain products with a worried look on his face, Xiao Li had already arrived at the largest pawnshop in Nan'an County.

The pawnshop was located on the bustling East District Street, where the residents were all wealthy families and government officials from Nan'an County. It was much better than the messy West District.

Naturally, the original body had never been to such a place before, so Xiao Li asked others about it.

He didn't completely believe what others said. He observed the area for a while and made sure that the pawnshop was not a black shop before walking in when no one was paying attention.

There was no customer in the pawnshop at this moment. The waiter nodded his head behind the counter, and the sound of an abacus could be faintly heard from the second floor.

The first floor of the store is filled with larger items, such as tables, chairs, doors, windows, screens and other large objects.

Obviously, pawnshops not only collect things, but also sell things to outsiders. The things on display are for sale.

Xiao Li just took a glance and lost interest in those things.

Although the wood material was not bad, he had seen all kinds of good things. There were also many kinds of precious wood piled up in the space, which he collected when he saw them at the beginning of the apocalypse.

He walked to the counter and saw that the waiter didn't notice anything, so he tapped the table with his fingers.

"咚咚-"

"It's thundering!"

The waiter almost jumped up. When he saw the expressionless person in front of him, his slow brain suddenly started to react.

He looked at Xiao Li awkwardly, "Scholar, are you going to pawn something?"

Xiao Li nodded and asked him meaningfully, "Is your shopkeeper here?"

You have to have some sense to do this job. When the waiter heard him asking about the shopkeeper, he subconsciously took a look at his clothes.

The robe was neither old nor new, but it was washed very clean and there was no smell. In addition, Xiao Li looked very elegant with his tall stature and straight back.

If he hadn't been dressed in ordinary clothes, the waiter would have wondered when this young man had appeared in the county.

But even so, the waiter still greeted him warmly.

"The shopkeeper is checking the accounts upstairs. What are you pawning, scholar? I'd like to take a look and talk to him about it."

The other party's words sounded nice, but in the final analysis, he was afraid that what he brought out would not be to the shopkeeper's liking, so he wanted to inspect the goods first.

Even in later times, such things were not uncommon, and Xiao Li was not surprised.

"can."

He would naturally not rashly pawn his gold, silver, and jewelry, but some things that were common in later generations were also priceless rarities in this era.

What he took out was a pair of exquisite blue and white porcelain bowls. The elegant patterns and the translucent eyes complemented each other. Before the end of the world, they were sold at an auction for nearly 100,000 yuan.

You have to know that at that time, exquisite porcelain bowls could be bought for only a dozen or twenty yuan. The reason why this pair of porcelain bowls can be sold at such a high price is mainly because they are antiques.

This world is based on the setting of "Koi and Peasant Girls Have Space". The handicraft industry is still extremely backward. Only dignitaries can use ordinary porcelain bowls, and blue and white porcelain has not even appeared, let alone blue and white exquisite porcelain.

The waiter was also knowledgeable. When he saw the pair of porcelain bowls, he immediately covered them with a cloth and then looked nervously towards the door.

Seeing that no one noticed this scene, he carefully picked up the bowl with a cloth and looked at Xiao Li with a bit of blame.

"Scholar, why didn't you wrap up such a delicate and fragile thing properly? You just carried it around all the way like this, and you weren't afraid of it getting knocked and broken."

Because he had just dozed off, the waiter didn't see where he took the porcelain bowl out from. He just thought he had been holding it in his hand all the time. He never imagined that he had only held it for a while.

Xiao Li naturally wouldn't explain.

Seeing that he was unmoved, the waiter realized that he had said too much, and quickly apologized with a smile, then took him to the second floor.

The pawnshop owner was a middle-aged man in his forties, thin and kind-looking. He was counting on an abacus with one hand and writing something on a piece of paper with the other. He didn't even notice them coming up.

In addition to the fact that the other party was too focused, it was also because their footsteps were not heavy.

Xiao Li did it out of habit, but the waiter did it on purpose.

He approached Xiao Li and explained in a low voice, "The shopkeeper doesn't like to be disturbed when he's doing his accounting. If he makes a mistake, he'll get furious. It's scary."

Xiao Li nodded to indicate that he understood.

The waiter gradually felt relieved when he saw that he was not angry and did not intend to leave because of being neglected.

He led Xiao Li to sit at the small table next to him, served tea and water, and prepared a plate of pastries.

"Scholar, why don't you wait here for a while? The door downstairs is not closed, and I have to go and check it, otherwise it would be bad if something is lost."

"can."

This wait lasted almost half an hour.

After settling the bill, the shopkeeper was just about to drink some tea when he suddenly noticed a living person sitting not far away. His hand shook so much that he almost spilled all the tea.

Xiao Li pretended not to see it, and while opening the cloth on the bag that the waiter had kindly given him, he slowly told him the purpose of his visit.

"Boss, name a price for this thing. If you're satisfied, I'll take it for granted. If you're not satisfied..."

He chuckled and didn't say anything else, but his expression, which suddenly turned cold, showed his threat.

The shopkeeper's surname is Fang. He has been exiled to Nan'an County by his master for twenty years. He has seen the filth of the rich and powerful as well as the rogues of the common people. He has been threatened dozens of times, if not a hundred times, so he is not surprised by it.

"Don't worry, sir. My shop has been open for decades, and I've been the shopkeeper here for twenty years. I certainly won't ruin my reputation for a small profit."

At this moment, Shopkeeper Fang never expected that he would almost get slapped in the face the next moment.

Following Xiao Li's actions, Shopkeeper Fang quickly saw the pair of exquisite blue and white porcelain bowls. He stood up so quickly that the chair was knocked over by his movement.

"Hey, this, this, are you sure you want to pawn this thing? Are you going to pawn it until you die?" Shopkeeper Fang looked at him eagerly, the passion in his eyes was astonishing.

Xiao Li was silent for a while before asking the other party, "Shopkeeper, why don't you make an offer first?"

"This..." Shopkeeper Fang looked conflicted.

On one hand, there is the reputation of the shop, and on the other hand, there is the possibility of getting more profit by lowering the price. It is really too difficult for him.

Xiao Li didn't rush him, but just tapped his fingers casually on the table, silently hinting to him to make a decision as soon as possible.

Whenever Manager Fang encountered such a situation in the past, he would inevitably have to argue with others, but this time, for some reason, there seemed to be a voice in his heart urging him to make a decision as soon as possible so as not to miss out on such a good opportunity.

He didn't hesitate for too long and quickly made a bid, "Ten thousand taels!"

Xiao Li didn't say yes or no, he just stared at it for a long time, until the man broke out in a cold sweat, and then he nodded slightly.

"can."

The shopkeeper heaved a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve and said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I'll go get the banknotes."

After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the back room. Xiao Li opened his mouth but didn't call him in the end.

Originally, he wanted the shopkeeper to settle the bill with gold and silver. After all, when the famine came, silver notes would lose their purchasing power, and even gold and silver would depreciate significantly.

During a famine, only food and drink are hard currency.

But then he thought again, there are still nearly three years before the famine comes. If he can find a legitimate reason to bring his family to settle in the capital during these three years, he won't have to worry about not being able to use the banknotes.

He certainly has money, but he needs to earn it in a clear way. Otherwise, if the heroine finds out, it will be troublesome. Unless...

The heroine is no longer alive.

After entering the book, Xiao Li wanted to kill the heroine for the first time.

When Manager Fang came back, he saw his expressionless face and murderous eyes. He paused and suddenly felt a chill on his back.

He was clearly a taciturn scholar just now, but in the blink of an eye, it seemed like a killer god was sitting there?

Xiao Li had sharp senses, and the next moment he restrained his murderous intent and looked over with a calm expression.

Meeting those emotionless black eyes, the shopkeeper couldn't help but blink again and again.

Could it be that I was just dazzled? Was my eyesight already blurry?

No, no, no, I'm not even fifty, how could my eyes be blurry? I must have just been looking at the account book for too long, not blurry eyes!

"it's okay no problem."

Manager Fang walked over to Xiao Li and sat down, muttering to himself. Then he took out two silver notes worth ten thousand taels from his sleeve pocket and placed them in front of him.

"Sir, take a look at this banknote. If it's all right, we'll sign the contract. A life contract!"

As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Li nervously, fearing that the young scholar would suddenly change his mind and say he didn't want to be the husband anymore.

Although he was exiled to Nan'an County, he would go to the capital for one or two months every year to deliver account books to his master, and he had seen a lot of good things.

But for a pair of porcelain bowls like this, I have never seen them, let alone heard of them.

The color is like the blue sky after rain, and the ingenuity of being able to let light in but not leak water, these are things that have never appeared in the capital!

Although ten thousand taels for a bowl is indeed very expensive, if it is sent to the capital, it can be sold for not only ten thousand taels, but even one hundred thousand taels!

If the master is willing to give them to the person in the palace, then maybe he can become a royal merchant and take advantage of the opportunity to return to the capital.

Neither the original body nor Xiao Li had ever seen a 10,000 tael silver note, so asking him to check its authenticity was just a pretense.

But when he picked up the two banknotes, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

These two exquisite blue and white porcelain bowls were a pair, and they were auctioned together. He didn't expect that the ten thousand taels the shopkeeper mentioned was for one bowl, not a pair.

This is a good misunderstanding.

Seeing that he hadn't spoken for such a long time, the shopkeeper suddenly became anxious and uneasy.

"Guest officer?"

"No problem, sign the deed."

"Good good."

The deed had been prepared long ago, in triplicate, one copy for the pawnshop, one for Xiao Li, and one for the pawnshop to keep for tax.

After confirming that there was no problem with the above content, Xiao Li signed and sealed it.

Of course, he used a pseudonym.

After leaving the pawnshop, he walked into a cloth shop and bought a set of ready-made clothes, picking out a piece of each kind of fabric, and then took out a banknote to pay.

The corner of the cloth shop owner's mouth twitched twice, and he hesitated to speak, holding the ten thousand taels silver note. After a while, he stammered, "Sir, do you have any loose change on you?"

Hearing this, Xiao Li fell silent.

The shopkeeper knew why he was silent. After pondering for a moment, he tentatively asked, "Sir, if you don't mind, could you go and exchange some loose change first? I'll hold the things for you, or I can have the waiter take you there?"

"I'll go by myself." Xiao Li asked the shopkeeper about the location of the money shop, then turned and left the cloth shop.

After leaving the money shop, the two ten thousand tael silver notes were exchanged for: ten one thousand tael silver notes, ten five hundred tael silver notes, forty-nine one hundred tael silver notes and ninety-nine taels of silver.

As for the missing one or two taels, it is the handling fee for exchanging the silver notes for silver.

After leaving the money shop, Xiao Li remembered that the owner of the cloth shop said he could leave his address for delivery, so he thought for a moment and went to the cloth shop.

He is going to rent a house.
