Chapter 85 Market Research
Putting aside his thoughts, Jia Daishan smiled and said:
"Where do the three of you want to go? Since you're out today, why don't you all take a look around?"
Jia Hu was happy
My grandfather is so wonderful! I really need to travel more and see more of the world!
Jia Hu pretended to be deep in thought.
Jia Daihua raised an eyebrow.
"Since we're out here, let's all take a look around. Let's go to Tianhe Street. There are lots of things there, and there should be all sorts of variety shows. Let's go have some fun today."
Jia Zhu and Jia Zhen immediately forgot about their magical younger brother who was born with a jade in his mouth, their minds filled with nothing but wanting to see the acrobatic performance.
Jia Hu's eyes lit up. In a market with lots of goods, you can tell whether a lot of things are available or not.
The carriage arrived at Tianhe Street. Stepping off the carriage, it was indeed very lively, bustling with people.
Jia Daishan confessed:
"The three of you must stay close to your grandfather and great-uncle and not run around." The three nodded obediently, knowing there were many people, so they held hands and walked together, following obediently behind.
Jia Hu looked around curiously. There were not only many shops, but also stalls selling all kinds of trinkets on both sides of the street.
Not far ahead, at the intersection, there were acrobatic performances, including a monkey show.
Jia Zhen and Jia Zhu's eyes lit up immediately, and they quickly pulled Jia Hu over. The little monkey was really clever; it could perform all sorts of acts, including bowing and somersaulting. It could even carry a plate and beg for money from the crowd. It was both clever and adorable.
Jia Hu took out the money he had prepared, including copper coins. He gave some to each of his younger brothers and told them to handle it themselves.
The two younger brothers were very generous and gave everything to the little monkey. The monkey's owner then had the monkey perform somersaults in front of the two boys, which made them extremely happy.
There was also a magician nearby, which was particularly attractive. After showing a small handkerchief to everyone, the person walked to the water vat.
Then everyone saw that the jar was empty except for water. When the handkerchief was shaken, a goldfish fell out of it.
Jia Hu knew that it must be hidden in his sleeve; a small fish like that is easy to hide.
This surprised Jia Zhu and Jia Zhen, and even Jia Hu's eyes widened in astonishment.
First, there was a small goldfish, then a palm-sized fish slightly larger than the goldfish, and then, incredibly, a fish as long as an arm appeared.
Jia Hu was shocked. Where could such a big fish be hidden?
This person is really amazing! There was a burst of applause and cheers from the sidelines, and Jia Hu also clapped excitedly.
After watching several more magic tricks, Jia Hu was truly captivated. The charm of these tricks lies in the fact that even though you know they are fake, you are still unconsciously drawn into them.
Jia Hu generously gave some money to his younger brothers, and each of them received a small share as a reward.
After watching the excitement, Jia Hu's interest was fully piqued; there were indeed many good things at the market.
The three of them saw something interesting and wanted to buy it, from sugar figurines to grasshoppers made of straw.
Jia Hu also browsed the nearby shops, saying he wanted to buy gifts for his grandmother and mother. He did have gifts, and he carefully looked at the items sold in each shop.
Jia Zhen and Jia Zhu also clamored to buy things for their mother. After going around in circles, the guards were indeed covered in gifts.
Jia Daishan and Jia Daihua simply watched them with amusement and gave them money.
He patiently and carefully explained and answered any questions Jia Hu had.
Sometimes, even before Jia Hu asked, they would explain things carefully, making Jia Hu exclaim that his grandfather and great-uncle were so kind and considerate.
Jia Hu didn't even need to come up with a reason for this.
After wandering around, Jia Hu hadn't spent much of the silver he brought, but he had learned a lot of information and had a general idea of what to do. He was overjoyed, unaware that Jia Daishan and Jia Daihua had kept their merits hidden.
When they had finished shopping, it was almost noon, and Jia Daihua said:
"It's almost lunchtime, what would you like to eat?"
They've had enough to eat at home, so if you ask them what to eat outside, Jia Hu and the others really don't know.
Jia Daishan thought for a moment,
"Your father's shop isn't far from here. How about we go see him and then have a meal together?"
The two younger children agreed, saying they were fine with going anywhere as long as they could have fun.
Jia Hu was still a little worried about his father, so he took this opportunity to go to the shop to check on him and put his mind at ease.
When they arrived at the shop, Jia She had indeed not gone back; he was still there.
Jia She had just seen a fan that he liked very much, so he bought it. He was currently in the room, with his feet propped up on the table, admiring it.
Suddenly, his father and uncle arrived with three little ones, which startled him.
"Father, Uncle, what brings you here?"
Jia Daishan snorted and said,
"Why can't I come to your shop?"
Jia She quickly said,
"What are you saying, Father? Your presence here, Father and Uncle, makes my humble abode even more honored."
Seeing the three kids smirking, he became furious and asked, "Why are you three out here?"
Jia Daishan immediately retorted, "What! My grandson needs your permission to go out?"
Jia She lowered his head and remained silent, while Jia Daihua burst into laughter.
"This is my first time visiting your shop. Come, come, tell me what good things you have here and let me see them."
Jia She was delighted upon hearing this.
"Please feel free to look around. If you like anything, I'll give it to you as a gift."
Jia Hu, however, immediately noticed the fan that Jia She had placed on the table, and his brows furrowed.
"Father, where did you get this fan?"
Jia Daishan frowned sharply. He remembered what his son would do for a fan later on.
Jia She was startled; he had completely forgotten about it. But the fan was so beautiful, and besides, he had paid for it himself, not stolen it. Jia She quickly explained.
"Dad, I just bought this. I did nothing wrong. The only problem is that this person also wanted to sell it, so I paid a high price for it. It's absolutely fair."
Jia Daishan:
"Didn't you say you wouldn't touch a fan anymore?"
Jia She: "It wasn't that I forgot for a moment. Besides, this person really had a family emergency and was in a hurry to sell, so I paid a high price."
After hearing this, Jia Hu realized he had been overly sensitive. Although the fan appeared later, he still said:
"Dad, even if you come across something you really love in the future, you must never force someone to sell it to you if they don't want to."
Jia Daishan:
“Did you hear what your son said? If I find out you dare to do that, I will break your legs and kick you out of the house.”
Jia She quickly replied:
“I remember everything my father said.”
Jia She regretted it; he shouldn't have accepted the fan today.
Jia Hu knew that Jia Zheng had done the right thing today, so he said:
“Grandfather, the people who offered the fans today were genuinely doing a good deed, and Father even paid a high price.”
Jia Daishan smiled and said:
“Grandfather knows, otherwise your father would have lost his leg just now.”
