Chapter 317: 317 made a lot of money Chapter 317: 317 made a lot of money Wenzheng, accompanied by two people, picked a few top-quality furs and then carefully carried them inside the mansion with the steward.
When he came out, Wenzheng was trembling all over.
Walking back to Ye Jiu, Wenzheng placed a roll of silver notes in Ye Jiu’s hands and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
For the first time in his life, he was holding so much money, he was constantly worried about losing it.
Ye Jiu took it without even looking, directly storing it in the space beneath his clothes, his expression one of calmness, which impressed Wenzheng greatly.
In fact, Ye Jiu was thrilled. After checking in the space, those several silver notes totalled nearly ten thousand taels, making Ye Jiu deeply realize the true value of the items he had brought.
However, the wealthy families were wealthy indeed. They didn’t lack money. The items Wenzheng brought were all kept: a tiger skin and four or five fox skins, while the rest were not as eye-catching.
For an entire noon, some people didn’t even inspect the goods, directly having their servants pay and take them. Two carriages were emptied by more than half, leaving behind less valued fur varieties and some damaged or flawed items.
At the end of the market day, Wenzheng asked Ye Jiu, “Niece, the rest of these items might not catch the eyes of the nobles. How should we handle them?”
“The rich wear the best, the poor wear the rest; you needn’t worry about not being able to sell them,” Ye Jiu replied as he helped tidy up the carriage, “We’ll go to the market this afternoon and sell the leftover items at a discount.”
After packing up and returning to the inn, Lu Biaotou looked at the emptied carriage and said, “Young Master Ye seems to have good business!”
Since Ye Jiu had dressed as a young boy after leaving home, Lu Biaotou and others also changed their manner of addressing Ye Jiu.
“Thanks to Lu Biaotou’s good luck,” Ye Jiu withdrew one hundred taels’ worth of silver notes and handed them over, “This is for the trouble today, have some tea on me. And Lu Biaotou, please don’t be modest, we still rely heavily on your care along the way.”
“If that’s the case, then I won’t be polite with the young master,” Lu Biaotou graciously accepted the money and then strode off.
Wenzheng felt a bit distressed, “We had already agreed on a price when we hired them. Why did you just give them so much more money?”
Ye Jiu had made a lot today, and she was not stingy. Since Wenzheng had also exerted much effort, Ye Jiu naturally had a reward for him as well.
