Chapter 207 Who is the legitimate daughter of the Xie family?
The man cupped his hands and smiled respectfully: "We are hunters from the nearby Queshan Forest Farm. These woods were grown by ourselves and were originally used for winter."
"But Miss should also know that the drought in the past few years was so severe that there were dead people everywhere. , so after discussion, we decided to sell the contracted forest farm."
"Dig a few holes in the forest farm to store water. Originally, these wood would usually be sold for ten taels per catty, but no, a few days ago. It rained suddenly and our wood was soaked.
"We can't use the wet wood to make a fire. I just wanted to try my luck and see if anyone can buy it and make a wood carving. Are you interested?"
Several people gathered around. Join in the fun, and after listening, they burst into laughter.
"You are not honest. This wood is already wet, so why are
you trying to trick people into buying it?" "That's right, little girl, don't let him fool you. They just dragged it all the way here and no one asked. After all, this wood is wet this year. It won't be used in the winter, and even two ounces per pound is too expensive!"
"It's just useless firewood, it can't even be burned, and it takes up space."
The man who sold the wood said angrily: "If you don't buy it, don't talk. Miss hasn't made a decision yet."
Shen Ningning blinked her dark eyes, her chubby little face thinking about something.
Suddenly, she asked: "How much wood do you have?"
"We still have a thousand kilograms in the warehouse of the forest farm. Miss, do you want it?" It has been a whole day, but no business has been made.
Feeling that Shen Ningning seemed to be interested in buying, the man couldn't help but smile with surprise and rubbed his hands again and again.
Shen Ningning nodded: "I can have it, but the price is too expensive. After all, wet wood cannot be used. If you give me a cheap price, I will consider it."
The man was overjoyed and looked at the person next to him. Totaled for a moment.
She turned to the little guy and said, "Miss, since you are so sincere about buying it, we won't hold it. We only charge you a total of 1,800 taels for the 1,000 kilograms in the warehouse, okay?"
Shen Ningning thought for a moment and said nothing. : "Okay, but I don't have any money with me now. You can follow me to get it."
The passers-by couldn't stand it anymore, shook their heads and walked away.
"This little girl is so eager to be deceived."
Waichun, who was standing behind Shen Ningning, couldn't help but whisper: "Princess, there is really no need for you to buy these."
Wanchun also said: "Yes, Princess, what do you want? " Whatever you want, the Prime Minister's Office has it. We only burn charcoal in winter, not firewood."
Shen Ningning shook her head: "I have use for these wood."
Even if she is not afraid of the cold, grandma is. It snowed early this year, so it must be a problem. Very cold winter!
Shen Ningning thought of how uncomfortable it was for her and her grandma huddled in a drafty room last year during the bitterly cold winter.
The drought has just passed and charcoal fire resources are scarce. Even if you want to buy one, it must be very expensive.
The little guy knew that she had no money now. Since the drug store collapsed, she had to find a way to get money elsewhere.
She couldn't just take care of herself, she also had to consider that her grandma and the wolves behind her had to live a comfortable and comfortable life.
With firewood, I don't feel panic.
What's more, she was reluctant to cut down the big trees in the fairyland. Firstly, she had no strength, and secondly, it was a pity.
Although the wood is wet now, when no one is around, she will send the wood to Wonderland.
After drying in the sun in the fairyland, it can be used sooner or later in winter.
Wolves and the others can also get together and have a warm winter.
Shen Ningning took them back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"You two wait outside." Munchun said to the two men with the air of a big maid before accompanying Shen Ningning into the house.
Shen Ningning went straight to Xie Suzhi's study.
She wanted to borrow two thousand taels from her godfather first.
As soon as I walked outside the study, I heard Xie Zhanjiu's voice coming from inside -
"Uncle, I wanted to spend four hundred taels to invite some of my close friends to host a banquet, but my mother said she didn't dare to make the decision, so she asked me to ask What do you mean?"
Shen Ningning paused, hesitating whether to wait until Xie Yuanjiu finished speaking before going in. Unexpectedly, when Xie Suzhi's confidant guard outside the door saw her, he greeted her with a smile: "The princess is here!"
After a moment, Xie Suzhi opened the door and walked towards the little one gently: "Ning Ning is here, godfather has it. I still have some official business. I'll take you out for a walk after that."
As he said that, he took Shen Ningning in.
Xie Yuanjiu glanced at the little guy.
Shen Ningning originally smiled sweetly at her, but unexpectedly, Xie Yuanjiu quickly withdrew his gaze and lowered his head expressionlessly.
The little guy licked his lips in embarrassment, and Xie Suzhi asked her: "Ning Ning, why did you come to see your godfather?"
Shen Ningning blinked her big dark eyes and said, "Godfather, I can find you. Can you borrow two thousand taels of silver?"
Xie Suzhi just picked up the pen, paused after hearing this, took the token from his waist with a smile, and handed it to Mu Chun.
"Take it and take the princess to the accountant. You can take as much as you want. I allow it."
Xie Yuanjiu suddenly raised his head and looked at Xie Suzhi in shock.
Shen Ningning's eyes widened in shock, and she hurriedly asked: "Daddy, why don't you ask me what I'm going to do with the money?
" Dad said he would take good care of you, so why bother asking?"
"From now on, if you want to spend it, you can pick it up at any time without having to say hello to me."
This is simply the ultimate form of pampering and trust.
Xie Yuanjiu secretly clenched her fists under her sleeves.
Shen Ningning showed a joyful smile, with cute pear dimples on her fair and tender face.
"Thank you godfather, I will pay it back!" When the time comes, she will find a few more pharmacies to sell some herbs.
Then, the little guy said goodbye and left with Late Spring and Late Spring.
Xie Yuanjiu spoke again: "Uncle..."
She called twice, but Xie Suzhi didn't respond. When she looked up, she saw that Xie Suzhi was still looking at the door, smiling gently in the direction where Shen Ningning left.
The look in his eyes was like that of a loving father with emotion, thinking that his daughter would finally spend his money, and he was extremely pleased.
Xie Yuanjiu suddenly felt uncomfortable and shouted loudly: "Uncle!"
Xie Suzhi came back to his senses, his eyes suddenly dull and profound.
"Xuanjiu, I have considered your proposal just now. You just did something wrong in the palace and there are some bad rumors."
"So these days, I suggest you not to hold high-profile banquets. If you really want to get together with friends, Just pay a hundred taels of silver and find a restaurant."
After that, he lowered his head and dealt with the official business seriously: "Go and get the money from the accountant."
Xie Yuanjiu's face turned pale, and anger suddenly rose in his heart. Also became anxious.
She wanted to question loudly.
Why did Shen Ningning ask for two thousand taels and give it to her without asking why.
And she only wanted four hundred taels, but it was hard to reach the sky!
Who is the legitimate daughter of the Xie family?
Xie Yuanjiu's heart was filled with bitterness and anger.
She was going to keep an eye on Shen Ningning and see where she spent her money.
She didn't believe that a child could not spend two thousand taels indiscriminately!
Xie Yuanjiu Fushen kept the last rules of propriety: "I know, uncle, I'll leave first."
She chased after her with a gloomy face, and happened to reach the door, where she saw Shen Ningning already holding the banknote and talking to the two men outside the door . .
Xie Yuanjiu's eyes turned cold and he quietly approached to eavesdrop.
