Chapter 7 The foolish person has a lot of money

Updates today are a little late, but not a little

~~~~~~

Never ran so fast, Xiao Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly. This time, because of the python, he not only obtained complete white fox fur and giant python gall, but also found that his leg skills had improved to the next level. He actually ran hundreds of feet away with a sprint speed of 100 meters.

Xiao Yi laughed wildly for a long time before expressing his joy.

When they left the white fox and entered the city, they were stopped by two guardians at the gate. When they saw the white fox in Xiao Yi's hand, they suddenly shone. It was because of Xiao Yi's high entry fee of 500 guan, because the white fox skin could be sold at a good price of at least 3,000 guan in the city.

Xiao Yi could afford such a huge sum of money and immediately cursed the dog official in his heart. He had to hide in the distance of the city gate and carefully peel off the white fox skin. Then he hid the white fox skin in his clothes, bypassed the south gate and handed over ten copper coins to enter the city. He entered Xiangyang City from the east gate.

If you go to a city, you have to pay ten copper coins. You have to lie that you are visiting relatives in the city. If you do business, you have to pay at least a consistent amount of money before you let it go. Xiao Yi secretly asked for a long trip in ancient times that he would be really sad if he had no money.

When Xiao Yi entered the city, he couldn't help but open his eyes. However, Xiangyang City was much more prosperous and lively than Jiankang City back then, with cars coming and going, and people were full of prosperity.

It must have been that after the unification, there was no war in the world. Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian, implemented the policy of rest and recuperation, which resulted in this result. I don’t know what Jiankang has become now, maybe it has been changed to Jinling now. Xiao Yi was in love with the scenery and missed his hometown a little.

Walking on the streets of Xiangyang City, vendors set up stalls and hawking, and pedestrians rushed to buy in groups of three or five, and bargaining sounds one after another.

While walking, Xiao Yi asked where there were merchants who bought animal skins. Someone told him that Wangde Store in the west of the city had recently purchased various animal skins. But some kind-hearted people persuaded Xiao Yi to go to the street stall to hawk him, so that he would sell it at a good price.

Xiao Yi inquired about the specific location, so he came to Wang De's shop.

The shop owner was very happy to learn that Xiao Yi was planning to sell a rare white fox fur, so he hurriedly asked him to go in and sit down and talk in detail.

But there is no businessman, Boss Wang saw that Xiao Yi was not old and was a foreigner deliberately suppressing the price, and only gave him 300 guan. Xiao Yi remembered that when the two city gate officials asked him for a tax of 500 guan, the white fox fur was worth 3,000 guan, so he would not be sold to him at such a low price.

After several bargaining, Boss Wang saw that Xiao Yi was eager to use the money, so he stopped raising the price when he reached 1,000 yuan.

Xiao Yi secretly asked this boss Wang to be too greedy, so he remembered the advice of a kind-hearted person and left the shop to set up a stall and hawk by himself.

Looking at Xiao Yi's back as he left, Boss Wang snorted coldly and called a friend to instruct: "Go and ask Wang Mazi to bring some people to cook the boy. I will give him a 10% benefit when I take back the white fox fur."

It was obviously not the first time that the guy did such a thing, so he immediately agreed with a smirk on his face.

However, Xiao Yi was also very smart in business and knew that this white fox skin was not affordable to ordinary people, so he inquired about the places where the wealthy families in Xiangyang City lived and shouted loudly from house to house.

Xiao Yi's voice was very loud, and people inside could hear it clearly through the high wall gate.

White fox fur is very rare, and suddenly many rich young men and daughters came out to see the goods.

"Dear young men, ladies, I'm optimistic. This is a rare white fox skin that is rare in a thousand years. It has no miscellaneous hair at all, and it is a complete skin without any damage."

"How much? I want it!"

"Why give it to you? I also like it!"

"I took a fancy to it first, please give me a price!"

Several young men and daughters of the family immediately started to make a fuss and rush to buy. Xiao Yi was immediately happy. He hoped that this situation would happen, so he said: "Give me a young man, Miss, I know that you are not short of money, and I dare not offend you. This is better, I will give you a minimum price. You sincerely want to buy it and just increase the price. In the end, if you have the higher price of this white fox skin, what do you think?"

Everyone wanted to get the white fox skin, but after all, they were all wealthy families, and there were many powerful people. They didn't want to offend each other, so they agreed with Xiao Yi's proposal.

Xiao Yi knew the key points of business and the price to whom he sold. Seeing a group of rich people, if the lowest price is low, they still feel that they are not qualified enough. Even if they are more expensive, the starting price is 3,000 guan.

Sure enough, when everyone heard that the price was indeed expensive, they were even more competitive with each other, and someone immediately started to increase the price.

"Three thousand guan!"

"Three thousand one hundred coins!"

"Three thousand two hundred stale!"

Every time everyone raised the price, they were more than 100 yuan. Xiao Yi was suddenly filled with joy and secretly asked for the rich people!

However, there are also rich people among the rich. When the price was increased to more than 6,000 guan, only one man and one woman were left. The other rich young men and ladies were reluctant to leave, but they were reluctant to leave, but they wanted to see the white fox skin in the end.

Xiao Yi kept observing the last two people secretly. The man looked like a Hu man, about twenty years old, with a jewel of jewel all over his body, and a golden knife on his waist, which looked really good. But he was very happy every time he spoke up and didn't look at others at all. His eyes were always staring at the woman beside him.

The woman came with him, and was dressed in a noble dress, but she was undoubtedly from the Central Plains. The woman looked not old, but she was extremely beautiful, and her eyebrows were even more heroic. Xiao Yi couldn't help but look at her a few more times, comparing with his sister Xiao Jing back then.

These two people were originally together, but why did they raise prices for each other?

Xiao Yi was a little puzzled and soon got the answer.

"Tuoba You, what do you mean?"

Tuoba You smiled slightly and said, "I'm not hiding the princess. Tuoba You saw that the princess liked this white fox skin, so he planned to buy it himself and give it to you!"

It turned out that the woman was actually a princess, Xiao Yi couldn't help but be surprised. Everyone next to him also looked at her in surprise.

Someone even exclaimed: "I heard that Princess Lanling, the daughter of King Wei, has been here in Xiangyang City these days to worship her deceased father. Could it be the one in front of you?"

Tuoba You laughed a few times and said, "You guys have the eyesight! That's right! The woman as beautiful as a fairy in front of you is Princess Lanling, the emperor's favorite! "

Everyone exclaimed again and saluted her. Some even wanted to flatter her and planned to offer a 100% discount to Xiao Yi's white fox fur to Princess Lanling.

The identity of Princess Lanling was exposed and he was displeased and said: "You are so hateful! You have to go against this Princess, right?"

But when he saw Tuoba You laughed without caring at all, "How dare Tuoba You go against the princess? He really fell in love with the princess at first sight when he saw it. Tuoba You will not marry him in this life."

Tuoba You showed his love without any implicitness, but Princess Lanling could not stand this frivolous remark. He immediately lowered his face and scolded: "If I hadn't seen you as a VIP of the Emperor's Uncle, I wouldn't pay attention to you. If you knew the truth, I would have died as soon as possible. Princess would rather marry the beggars in the Central Plains than marry you foreign barbarians!"

"Well said!" Xiao Yi immediately praised and continued, "The princess's words really made us the people of the Central Plains ambition. I admire him very much. Since the princess likes this white fox skin, it will be a beautiful woman. She will only sell her to the princess."

When Tuoba You heard this, he was furious and said, "If you promised that the higher price, why do you Central Plains people not keep your word?"

Xiao Yi was about to refute him, but saw Princess Lanling suddenly stop Xiao Yi, and turned to Tuoba You and said, "Since you want to buy it so much, you can pay 10,000 yuan. I won't argue with you!"

Then, Princess Lanling held her ears and said softly: "These barbarians in Huawai are stupid and don't have to waste money. If you get the money later, you will go to Room 1, Tianzi, Fulai Inn, East Street, to wait. I have something to say to you!"

Xiao Yi was a little dazed when he heard this. He didn't know what medicine was selling in Princess Lanling's gourd, but she exhaled like orchid in Xiao Yi's ear. Xiao Yi had never been so close to a woman in the past eight years, and he couldn't help but feel his heart rippled and nodded in agreement with her.

Tuoba You was afraid that Princess Lanling would regret it, so he hurriedly ordered his subordinates to get a thousand taels of gold to trade with Xiao Yi.

It was the first time in Xiao Yi that he had seen a thousand taels of gold in his life, weighing more than sixty pounds.

Seeing Tuoba You follow Princess Lanling happily, Xiao Yi secretly begged this Hu man, he is indeed stupid and has a lot of money. He is so generous to please the beauty. This time he made a big profit.

A group of young men and ladies next to him immediately cast envious glances at Xiao Yi. If it weren't for Xiao Yi's sword, he would probably have snatched him.

Xiao Yi knew that his wealth would not be revealed, so he did not dare to stay for a moment, so he hurriedly carried the gold and left.

Thinking of Princess Lanling's words, Xiao Yi asked all the way to the No. 1 room of Tianzi, Fulai Inn, waiting.

About half an hour, a little girl dressed in green clothes hurried into the room with a bag on her back.

Xiao Yi recognized her at a glance. It was Princess Lanling whom he had just met. He couldn't help but say curiously: "Why is Princess Lanling dressing like this?"

"What kind of magistrate Lan? What's the master of the county? It's just a journey to the world and make a living!"

When Xiao Yi heard this, he immediately understood that the woman in front of him was not Princess Lanling at all. He immediately asked, "Aren't you Princess Lanling? Then are you?"

"Stop talking nonsense!" The woman in green immediately changed her body and said straight to the point: "According to the rules of the world, you can get rid of the 1,000 taels of white fox skin and the other 700 taels need to be added to 2,100 taels of white fox skin. If you think it is unreasonable, then the girl will give you the 1,000 taels of white fox skin. You can only give you 1,000 taels of gold."

As he said that, the woman in green actually took out a white fox fur from her bag, which was the one that Xiao Yi sold to the stupid and rich Hu Tuoba You.

Xiao Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly and actually bumped into a female liar.

"You are really bold, and you dare to pretend to be Princess Lanling? Then Tuoba You believed it, but how did you do it?"

The woman in green asked back, "Didn't you believe it too?"

Xiao Yi was speechless. At that time, he believed that she was Princess Lanling. He couldn't help but think that there were all wise scammers of all ages, but this time he gained knowledge. Fortunately, the other party was not lying to him, and he was lucky.
