1952: Walking through Nantongluo Alley

Chapter 114 Chen Xiao’s Idea

In the end, Sha Zhu told Chen Xiao the truth.

He really couldn't bring himself to lie to Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao just stood aside and looked at Sha Zhu with a faint smile on his face.

"So? Silly Zhu, are you planning to buy this jade pendant in my hand?"

Sha Zhu nodded first, then explained.

"Brother Chen Xiao, I really want to buy the jade pendant in your hand, but I really can't afford that much money right now..."

"Ten thousand yuan is not a small sum. With my monthly salary, I would have to save it for more than 20 years even if I didn't eat or drink..."

After saying that, Sha Zhu lowered his head.

He likes Teacher Qian very much and hopes to marry her.

Chen Xiao thought about it for a while.

Then an idea came to me.

He was the one who bought the jade pendant, so it was impossible for him to sell it to him cheaply just for Sha Zhu's marriage.

I'm afraid that what Teacher Qian was thinking was that he would let Sha Zhu add a few dollars to the 50 yuan to buy it without his knowledge.

Unfortunately, what Teacher Qian didn’t know was that Chen Xiao had the talent of golden eyes.

"Silly Zhu, do you really like Teacher Qian?"

Sha Zhu's old face turned red instantly, and he said embarrassedly.

"Well, I dream of marrying her."

"Silly Zhu, your brother Chen Xiao has an idea now, would you like to listen to it?"

Sha Zhu put his ear close.

"Silly Zhu, I now know the true value of the jade pendant. There's no way I'm going to sell it to you at the original price."

"At the real price, you can't afford it."

"I can help you marry Teacher Qian, but as for the jade pendant..."

Having said that, Chen Xiao deliberately paused.

After a long silence, Sha Zhu suddenly realized.

He assured, patting his chest.

"Brother Chen Xiao, don't worry. As long as Teacher Qian and I can get married, I will never tell anyone else about the jade pendant."

Only then did Chen Xiao nodded in satisfaction.

If he didn't sell the jade pendant to Sha Zhu, he was really worried that Sha Zhu would tell other residents of the courtyard about the jade pendant.

If the other residents knew about this, especially Yi Zhonghai and the Jia family, I'm afraid both families would explode on the spot.

What did ten thousand yuan mean in 52?

Ordinary people wouldn't even dare to think about it.

Then, Chen Xiao whispered in Sha Zhu's ear again.

After hearing this, Sha Zhu's face was full of worry.

"Ah? Brother Chen Xiao, is this really okay? Isn't this deceiving Teacher Qian?"

Chen Xiao said seriously.

"Cheating? How can it be called cheating?"

"You really like Teacher Qian, and the deception is just a white lie. At worst, you can make up for it by treating her well for the rest of your life after marriage."

Chen Xiao patted Sha Zhu's shoulder and continued to brainwash him.

"Silly Zhu, love is a matter of fate. You must seize this opportunity. If you miss it, you will never get it again."

"If you miss Teacher Qian, you may never meet a woman like her again in your life."

Sha Zhu fell into deep thought.

After a period of inner struggle, Sha Zhu finally chose to accept Chen Xiao's proposal.

"Brother Chen Xiao, where can I get a fake jade pendant?"

"Leave it to me. Come to my house in a couple of days to get it."

"No more talking, I have something else to do, I'll just ride my bike away first."

Chen Xiao got on the bicycle and put his right foot on the pedal.

Then he pedaled hard and rode the bike slowly out.

"Brother Chen Xiao, slow down."

"If I really get married to Teacher Qian, I will give you a big red envelope!" Sha Zhu shouted from behind.

The plan that Chen Xiao just told him was to make a fake jade pendant as a betrothal gift, and then find an opportunity to smash the jade pendant after the wedding night.

And it has to be broken on Teacher Qian, so that even if Teacher Qian has complaints, he can blame it all on Chen Xiao.

After all, it was you who broke the jade pendant, so what does it have to do with Sha Zhu?

Chen Xiao rode his bicycle to the courtyard of Qinhuai State.

At this time, several people from Qinhuai State were busy packing the konjac noodles into bags.

It was not until sunset that the four people from Qin Huaiguo packed all the konjac into bags.

Then put them all into sacks.

Tens of thousands of packages of konjac juice filled dozens of large bags.

After a simple meal, Chen Xiao and Qin Huaiguo each rode a bicycle to the transaction location agreed with Lao Bei.

After two days of hard work, Qin Dazhuang finally woke up and had some time to rest.

He sat down on the ground and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand.

"Uncle, don't tell me this job is really not easy, it's even more tiring than farming!"

"But even if it's ten times more tiring, I'd still be happy to do it." Qin Dazhuang grinned at Qin Tieniu.

If he can earn 30 yuan a month and work hard for a few years, Qin Dazhuang will have everything.

Not only do you have enough money to marry a wife, but you can also buy a set of three major items for your home!

Qin Tieniu rolled his eyes at him.

"If it weren't for the relationship between our two families, do you think your uncle would ask you to come over to work?"

"Da Zhuang, listen to my advice and take advantage of this job. It pays 30 yuan a month. In our countryside, there are only a few people in the surrounding villages who can earn such a high salary."

Qin Dazhuang nodded repeatedly.

"Uncle, don't worry, Dazhuang will definitely work hard!"

At this time, Qin Dazhuang saw a fallen konjac on the ground.

He picked it up curiously and threw it into his mouth.

He wanted to see this thing and see why it was sold at almost the same price as pork, and how delicious it was.

As he chewed slowly, Qin Dazhuang's eyes widened.

"This...this is so delicious."

“It tastes better than pork…”

No wonder a pack can be sold at such a high price! ! !

.......

the other side.

Chen Xiao and Qin Huaiguo rode their bicycles to the transaction location.
