Chapter 391 The Scholar Who Failed the Exams Many Times
Gao E thought that although the furs could not be used to make clothes, they could be used to make other things.
Seeing Gao E like this, Jin Ruyi thought she must have thought of something: "If I sell it at a low price, it can only be used as a cushion."
But it is not easy to deal with. Rich people look down on that kind of thing, and it is too expensive for poor people.
"Go and find out how many there are and how much it would cost if I bought them all." Gao E said directly.
"Why buy so much?" Jin Ruyi thought it was outrageous.
"I'll talk to you later. If possible, let's go and take a look first." Gao E suggested.
"Okay." Jin Ruyi nodded.
She didn't tell Gao E that the business belonged to the Jin family, and that the Jin family lost everything this year.
When the shopkeeper of the Jin family heard that someone wanted to buy them all, he was so excited that he didn't know what to say. He quickly took people to invite Gao E and others over.
Although Gao E and the others were dressed ordinary, the shopkeeper of the Jin family did not dare to neglect them. After all, it was normal not to show off one's wealth when going out. They were all very graceful and it was obvious at first glance that they were not ordinary people.
"This is the warehouse where we store furs. Although they have been soaked in water, they have been dried in the sun. They will be of high quality when used to make mats and cushions." The shopkeeper said as he opened the door.
A fishy smell of fur hit him in the face, and even the shopkeeper of the Jin family paused and then smiled apologetically.
"Only the best fur has this smell." He smiled brightly.
Gao E thought that the shopkeeper was quite capable, so she went in to check. It turned out that although it had become hard due to soaking in water, it did not stink, so it seemed that it had been dealt with immediately.
Although the tanning technology is average, the whole piece is very neat.
"I want all the cowhide. How much is it?" Gao E said directly.
The shopkeeper of the Jin family didn't expect that this was really a big customer: "I'll calculate it for you right away." As he said that, he went to look through the account book and took out the abacus.
Gao E and others were invited to the backyard for tea.
Gao E looked at the Jin family's badge and asked, "Don't they recognize you?"
"I can't even recognize my own father now." Jin Ruyi took a sip of tea. "This shopkeeper has a good eye and values you very much."
Gao E knew that Jin Ruyi was talking about the shopkeeper serving them good tea: "We will have to pay a lot this time."
"It's normal to make profits and losses in business." Jin Ruyi said casually.
Suddenly it occurred to me that Gao E had never lost anything so far, and had picked up a lot of good things at a bargain price, but no one could compare to the amount of money she had given away.
The shopkeeper quickly calculated the bill, which came to three thousand four hundred and seventy taels, even with the deduction for any small change.
Gao E felt a pang of pain, but she still decided to buy them all. She checked the quantity, paid a deposit, and then left.
After leaving the Jin family's business, Gao E looked around.
"What else are you planning to buy?" Jin Ruyi looked at Gao E with helplessness.
"The leather will need to be loaded onto several trucks. Do we have to buy a truck and hire people?" This was the problem Gao E was most worried about.
Jin Ruyi laughed and said, "We can just hire a few drivers with carriages. If that doesn't work, we can hire an escort agency to make a trip from Qinzhou City to He County. It won't cost much."
Gao E wondered how she had forgotten about the delivery: "Go ask the escort agency how much it costs."
If they could ask the escort agency to send them back, it would be much simpler for them to return to Huixian County together with the escort agency.
Yu Zhao, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly said, "I do know a few reliable escorts."
Gao E looked at Yu Zhao and said, "We can't let them go for nothing."
"Yes." Yu Zhao nodded.
Yu Zhao went to find the escort agency, while Gao E and Jin Ruyi continued to buy other things.
This time, they must buy books, so Jin Ruyi took Gao E to the largest Liuche Bookstore in Qinzhou City.
There seemed to be some kind of activity going on at Liuche Bookstore today. It was crowded with people, most of whom were students wearing square scarves. The three people who walked in looked very awkward.
A servant boy saw them and immediately ran over, as if afraid that they would disturb the people inside. "This is the bookshop. If you are not buying books, please move on."
Gao E turned around and left. She thought that she was giving money to people who despised her like that, and there was nothing wrong with her brain.
Jin Ruyi wanted to lose her temper, as she hated people who looked down on others, but Gao E and Lu Qingluo had already left, so she had no choice but to leave with them.
Just as she was leaving, she saw Ye Linchuan standing among the crowd, looking very proud.
Her face instantly darkened.
I have to say that Ye Linchuan's luck is really good. He was not affected by what happened last time.
"The biggest isn't necessarily the best." Gao E said as she turned around and saw Jin Ruyi's face was not good. "What's wrong?"
"I saw Ye Linchuan." Jin Ruyi said with a relaxed expression.
"Luckily we got out." Gao E knew Jin Ruyi wanted revenge, "otherwise I would have been vomiting."
Jin Ruyi smiled and said, "I think my vision is pretty good. The person I like is indeed quite accomplished."
Gao E knew that Jin Ruyi was teasing herself: "I think we don't need to go to the biggest bookstore. We can just go with the flow and go to whichever bookstore we like."
"What do you mean by pleasing the eye? I just feel like I can afford the things inside." Jin Ruyi said as he walked to the front.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Gao E followed.
This street sells all kinds of elegant things, such as the four treasures of the study, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and collectibles... Most of the people walking on the street are rich people and scholars.
The three of them were walking on the street, and the waiters soliciting customers didn't even look at them.
Suddenly Gao E stopped in front of a bookstore: "I have a bookstore."
Jin Ruyi also looked over: "I haven't noticed it."
The doors, windows and plaques of the bookstore are very old, but very clean, and there are no waiters soliciting customers at the door.
"This is the one." Gao E said and walked in.
There was only a man in his thirties in the bookstore, sitting on a recliner reading a book with a cat lying on his lap.
When the raccoon saw someone coming in, he stretched lazily and jumped off his owner's legs. He then nimbly jumped onto the counter and began to lick his paws.
Hong Sheng moved the book aside and saw that it was three women coming in. He was too lazy to get up and asked: "What book do you want?"
Most of these women buy books for their men.
If women are asked to go out and buy books, the men in the family will not be able to achieve anything.
Gao E saw that he was wearing a slightly whitish long gown, so he must be a scholar. "Sir, please recommend me a child. I have a child who is just starting to learn, a student who is still studying, and a scholar who is studying for a higher degree."
Further study to become a scholar?
Hong Sheng laughed when he heard this description: "That scholar who repeatedly failed the exams."
Gao E heard the mockery and disdain in the boss's tone and thought that the boss must have suffered some kind of blow.
Jin Ruyi felt that it was not a good day to buy books. Why was it like this in every bookstore?
But she didn't expect that the three of them didn't look like the people who could buy books, so it was normal that the other party had a bad attitude.
"Sir, it's not right to say that." Gao E was not angry. The other party's words were unpleasant but not malicious.
"Tell me what's wrong." Hong Sheng said as he sat up straight, thinking that it was not easy for a woman to buy books for her man.
"It's like fighting and failing again and again and fighting again. Although the results are the same at the moment, the spirit in your heart is different." Gao E argued.
