The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

Chapter 37 Bargaining



If Mrs. Wu heard someone say this, she would definitely say that the other person would blow off their bullshit, but after observing these days, she still believed Zhou Xiaoyuan.

She was a little nervous about the trusting look in her eyes. After all, there are only so many things people know, and one day they will all be used up.

Zhou Xiaoyuan opened her mouth to say something else, but was urged by Nini, who was watching the two of them without making any move.

"Mom, auntie, eat it quickly. It's cold but you'll have diarrhea if you eat it."

"Okay, mom, let's eat it now. If you worry about others at such a young age, I'm afraid you will be a housekeeper in the future."

"What is a housekeeper?"

I thought I was muttering in my heart, but now my daughter heard it. She immediately came back to her senses, shook her head at the two of them, lowered her head and ate sweet potato porridge.

When the three of them had eaten and drank enough and were ready to continue cleaning up, they discovered that there was nothing left in the area that should have been least damaged.

"What should we do now? They didn't even leave us a mattress."

"It's still early and I should still be able to buy things, but I can't think of what to buy. I have to list the things I need most."

Wu nodded, but when she saw this empty home, her lips still trembled.

Perceiving the other party's emotions from the corner of her eye, Zhou Xiaoyuan did not say anything, but took the lead in taking inventory of the necessary bedding, clothing and other items with her children.

"Why I didn't notice something was wrong in the house last night? If I had gone back to ask for it at that time, I would have no idea."

"I'm afraid I didn't do it last night. I took a lot of things with me when I came back."

Unfolding the package and looking at the few clothes and dry food inside, the two sighed again.

But it was only for a while. The two of them had adjusted their emotions and continued to clean up.

The house quickly picked out a few items that couldn't be left out.

"At home, you need a bucket for drinking water and cooking, and then there are bedding for sleeping, and..."

"Just remember, I will pick out the things you don't want when you go shopping later."

Zhou Xiaoyuan confirmed again and again, and then when she saw the unlocked door, her eyebrows knitted together again.

If you don't want people to break in again, the house needs to be reinforced.

After all, what was done before could only be regarded as repairs. If it is attacked by those gangsters again, it will still be damaged.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xiaoyuan reached for the few remaining purses and counted all the family property one by one.

"I'm afraid that these things won't be enough to sell many things, but I still have to find a way to make money."

"It's a temporary grievance. Once we make money again, we can repair the house soon."

Of course Zhou Xiaoyuan knew that these words were just comfort, but they also had a certain effect in making people walk out of the yard full of energy again.

In order to be able to buy everything, some people who can buy bargains naturally choose cheaper items.

"Girl, look at our wooden basin, it will never break after decades of use."

"Then if it breaks, will you replace it?"

This was the first time the shopkeeper heard that it could be replaced. He was stunned for a moment and then smiled sarcastically.

He just blurted it out, so Zhou Xiaoyuan naturally wouldn't bother with him any more. She smiled and walked over to Mr. Zhou who was choosing a wooden barrel.

"Girl, the barrel and basin are together, I only want you twenty coins."

"I have other things to buy today, how about buying a wooden barrel?"

Hearing this, the shopkeeper's expression changed again, but he still honestly said fifteen cents and prepared to keep accounts.

But what he didn't expect was that Zhou Xiaoyuan

He put the barrel aside, picked up the tub and put five coins on the table.

"That's wrong, girl, the wooden basin costs ten cents."

"But you also said that both of them cost only twenty coins together. Doesn't the fifteen-ton wooden basin cost five coins?"

"How can it be calculated like this?!"

The shopkeeper let out a startled exclamation, and repeatedly waved his hand to press the wooden basin he was about to pick up on the table.

He looked up and saw a few pairs of stunned eyes. Then he realized what he had done and could only squeeze out a helpless smile.

"The combination of these things is only twenty cents, and buying them alone is ten cents and fifteen cents."

"But I really can't take so much. How about next time I come to buy a barrel, you just think I bought it together?"

Naturally, it was impossible for the shopkeeper to agree with Zhou Xiaoyuan's words. He shook his head and pushed the five cents directly in front of her.

Knowing that the negotiation failed, she did not give up, but looked at the backpack aside.

"If you say so, it should be very cheap, right?"

"It's Wu Wen."

"How about you sell them to me for ten cents together?"

Wu was shocked when she heard this. She had never thought that she could bargain like this.

The shopkeeper had never seen anything like this before. He was stunned for a while and then shook his head vigorously.

"No, if you really want it cheaper, why not buy the basket and the barrel together, so that you can get more things, how about it only costs thirteen coins?"

"But I don't need it. As long as I wrap some leaves around it, it can be used as a bucket. Just buy another basin. How about I give you eleven cents?"

I had never thought that a backpack could be used in this way. The shopkeeper was completely shocked. It took him a long time to react and shook his head vigorously.

Seeing that he was so unwilling, Zhou Xiaoyuan also committed a crime.

Get ready to go out.

"Forget it, let's go look elsewhere. Maybe we can come across a bamboo weaving stall, which will be cheaper."

After saying that, he didn't care about the look in the shopkeeper's eyes, he took the big one and the little one and left directly.

Having not seen the guests for a long time, he naturally ran out the door to stop them when they were about to leave.

"Okay, eleven cents for you."

"Thank you very much, shopkeeper. As expected of a shopkeeper, he is very generous."

Zhou Xiaoyuan said, taking some more bowls and chopsticks and putting them on the table, smiling at the shopkeeper who was finally getting along.

"We're asking for some bowls. These chopsticks are a little bent. You won't sell them to others. Why don't you give them to us?"

"you!"

"If you don't want to, forget it, we'll still buy it..."

Before he finished speaking, the shopkeeper had already thrown the things into the basket and directly dialed the numbers on the abacus without looking at Zhou Xiaoyuan, who was about to faint from anger.

"Thank you, shopkeeper. We are also helpless. If we make money in the future, we will definitely come to you often to buy things."

The other party didn't make a sound, but just waved his hand to signal the person to leave immediately.

The three of them were worried that the shopkeeper would get angry and didn't buy anything. Naturally, they put the things into their backpacks very quickly and ran out with them in their arms.

On the other side, Xia Yechen's face became even more gloomy when he heard the guards saying that the three of them had used yellow mud from the courtyard to repair the house.

If it weren't for that group of people, he would have brought them into the house long ago, why would he have to suffer this torture.

The more I thought about it, the angrier I felt, but I also felt powerless and suddenly slammed my hand on the table.

"Call the butler over."

"Yes."

The guard looked at the blood-stained hands and dared not say another word. He turned around and went to find the housekeeper.

He ran into the study in a hurry and was stunned by the prince's inexplicable words.

"

Are you selling your house? "

"Can't I dispose of my own things?"
