Chapter 7: Selling Pearls in Jade Shops
Song Haier spoke these words very seriously and casually.
It was as if she was not selling pearls, but rather some ordinary household items.
Thinking about this, Wang Yunzhao couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
"Okay."
His temperament was naturally easy-going, and with Song Haier already being his chosen daughter-in-law, he would naturally be even more gentle.
No matter what happened, and no matter what they would encounter in the future, Wang Yunzhao would always protect Song Haier.
Song Haier felt it.
She glanced at Wang Yunzhao.
Although he was young, he was so steady and composed in his actions, making her feel a sense of reliance on this man, the first of its kind.
Thinking about this, Song Haier couldn't help but smile inwardly.
She, the leader of a mercenary group, unexpectedly felt a sense of stability with someone of a similar age, which was quite strange.
But now, talking about these things was useless. No matter what happened, their most important task at the moment was to live their lives well.
Not only to live well, but also to overcome all difficulties first.
Thinking about this, Song Haier smiled and said, "Let's go, let's go sell pearls!"
"Sell pearls!"
Wang Huaxi didn't understand what this meant, but seeing her sister so happy, she imitated her and shouted, then the two of them left first.
After wandering for a while, they finally arrived at a jade shop. After looking around, Song Haier smiled and said, "This is the one."
This statement raised some eyebrows.
Wang Yunzhao looked at her and after a while, he couldn't help but furrow his brows.
"This is a jade shop, can we sell pearls here?"
Song Haier just smiled at his words and nodded.
"It's possible!"
She was confident in handling this matter. What if it was a jade shop? Didn't pearls also count as jade? And the pearls she had were of such good quality, they were definitely worth it!
With that, she took Wang Huaxi and walked into the jade shop.
When the shop assistant saw someone coming in, he was about to greet them with a smile, but when he saw Song Haier and the others in their tattered appearance, he was stunned.
However, he didn't look down on them, but there was still some negligence.
"Are you here to buy jade?"
Although he said that, he also knew that these people didn't look like they had the money to buy jade.
Song Haier didn't care about the shop assistant's attitude. Even though she was in a sorry state, she didn't show any timidity in this glittering jade shop.
Her straight back showed that she wasn't feeling inferior at all.
Even though Wang Yunzhao was somewhat uncomfortable, Song Haier wasn't.
"Is the shopkeeper here? We have a big deal to discuss with him."
Song Haier's words were quite straightforward, and the shop assistant, upon hearing them, raised an eyebrow, thought for a moment, and then nodded.
"Okay."
Although the shop assistant felt that these people didn't look like they were here for any big business, he didn't want to drive them away. What if they really had something to discuss?
So the shop assistant went to the back to fetch the shopkeeper.
When the shopkeeper heard what the shop assistant said, he couldn't help but look at the shop assistant curiously.
"Were they in a sorry state?"
The shop assistant thought for a moment and nodded.
"Yes, their clothes are all patched up, but their aura... seems quite strong."
It was precisely because of this aura that the shop assistant didn't make any excessive moves.
The shopkeeper nodded and followed the shop assistant out.
Then he saw the four of them.
The shop assistant had made the situation sound better than it was.
How could this be a sorry state?
It was like they were begging!
The shopkeeper was about to frown and scold them, but when he met Song Haier's indifferent and cold eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and then he took a deep breath and involuntarily lowered his head.
"Um... Are you looking for me? Miss, do you have some big business to discuss with me?"
After the shopkeeper said this respectfully, he felt that something was off.
But at this moment, he couldn't care about that. The pressure was just too strange.
After seeing the shopkeeper's respectful attitude, Song Haier retracted the oppressive aura she had released earlier and gently patted Wang Huaxi, who had been frightened by her aura.
"It's okay, don't be afraid."
Wang Yunzhao and the others also came to their senses at this moment, especially Wang Yunzhao, who looked at Song Haier with even more doubt in his eyes.
Song Haier seemed like a rural child, but why did she give off the impression of being a treasure from head to toe?
Could it be that he was mistaken?
But could such coincidences really happen in this world?
Although he had doubts in his heart, he couldn't say much at the moment and could only hold Wang Yunpeng's hand and stand aside, waiting.
After comforting Wang Huaxi, Song Haier looked at the shopkeeper in front of her.
Dressed in a black silk robe with a hint of beard, he appeared quite dignified. However, at this moment, Song Haier had no time to care whether he was dignified or not. When he was in front of her, it was absolutely impossible to deceive her!
"Innkeeper?"
"Yes."
Song Haier nodded, then looked around before saying, "Do you buy pearls?"
Direct and straightforward, that was always Song Haier's character. She hated beating around the bush.
If there was something to say, just say it directly. Whether it was good or bad, she could accept it. So now, she wanted to see if the innkeeper could catch this opportunity.
After hearing Song Haier's words, the innkeeper suddenly felt that she was teasing him. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the determination in her eyes, and the words he was about to say suddenly took a turn.
Then it became...
"Of course, we do!"
This change in attitude made the shop assistant couldn't help but glance at them.
How could he not know that their jade shop also bought pearls?
The innkeeper didn't care about others' doubts. He took a deep breath and then looked at Song Haier, cautiously asking, "Um... does the young lady have pearls?"
