Chapter two hundred and twenty second
The third brother chuckled and said, "Uncle, what you said! It's not easy for a nephew? You have to let me drink some soup every day, right? If you are like you, your nephew will not have to drink the northwest wind?"
Zheng Nanpo looked at me and said, "In this way, don't be a bargain. Mr. Charlie really wants to see it. If I make the decision, how about we just have one tael of silver?"
The third brother said, "One tael of silver is too little, right? I think what I think, I have to do two taels! If this number is missing, I won't do it!"
Zheng Nanpodao: "No, no, two taels of silver are too much. Don't you treat your uncle as a sucker?"
The third brother was a little annoyed and sneered: "Uncle, why are you turning your elbow out?"
When Zheng Nanpo saw the third brother saying this, he couldn't help but his voice became octave higher, saying, "Why did my elbow turn out? Your uncle is helping the manager or not, do you know? We only pay one or two taels of silver. If you want it, you can continue, don't, and we won't see it anymore!"
The third brother curled his lips and said, "Uncle, it's not easy for you to travel far away. In this way, I'll make a pot of tea and drink it first! I don't care about you guys, anyway, everything has been sold!"
Zheng Nanpo's face turned pale and stomped his feet and said, "Brother Charlie, let's go! I want to see how much wealth he can make without me!"
Seeing that the two of them had a broken conversation, I thought to myself, "It's not easy for me to come here. What's the matter with just going back like this? Not to mention two taels of silver, even if he asked me for twenty taels, I would have to give it?" I stood up and grabbed Zheng Nanpo and said, "Oh, Brother Nanpo, are you angry? Let's talk about it again, how can you do this? You can shy your face if you disagree?"
Zheng Nanpo said: "Brother, I... am really faceless! Even if I don't have a nephew like him in the future...!"
I advised him, "Old Zheng, I naturally know your character, and I am very grateful. But this transaction is a transaction, and relatives are relatives, so how can the two be confused? I think the third brother did it right, but you, the uncle, are a bit inappropriate!"
The third brother slapped his thighs and said, "Oh, Mr. Charlie said a fair word. We are doing business. Although he is my uncle, he can't rely on his seniority to make ends meet?"
I nodded and said, "The third brother is right. Do you think this is OK? Let's follow the price you just said, how about two taels of silver?"
The third brother smiled and said, "Isn't it going to be settled if I say that earlier? You bring the money first, let's pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other!" After that, he spread his hand in front of me. When I came out of Beijing, in addition to a few silver notes, I also had four or five hundred foreign money in my bag. So I opened the bag, grabbed a handful of foreign money, and counted it to the third brother!
The third brother heard the sound of money in his leather bag and couldn't help but say in a striking manner: "Mr. Charlie, you are such a rich man!"
After paying the money, I asked the third brother: "I have paid all the money, why haven't you brought your stuff yet?"
The third brother counted the foreign money carefully, then laughed dryly and said, "Mr. Charlie, what are you anxious about?" While staring at the leather bag in my hand, he weighed the foreign money in his hand and said, "Wait, I'll bring you the things!" After that, he walked out of the house with an oil lamp!
The house suddenly became dark, and I heard Zheng Nanpo curse in a low voice: "The ungrateful wolf!".
After a while, the third brother walked back with a silk bag and smiled. He said to me: "Charlie first."
Life, I will bring you what you want!"
I quickly stood up and took the bag from him, but he protected the bag and said, "Be careful, this thing is worth a lot of money!" After that, he looked around and couldn't find a place to put the bag, so he had to put it on the ground and said, "You guys are here to watch it, and I'll take it away after reading it!"
Lao Zheng and I squatted on the ground and asked Xiao Liuzi to carry a lantern. We both opened the bag bit by bit. After lifting many layers, we finally saw that there was a shriveled corpse inside the bag! The body had human facial features and limbs, which looked like a child's corpse. But it also had something different from humans, that is, the body was covered with white hair, and all the teeth were barked. The nails on the hands and feet were as sharp as knifes. Just from these points, it had nothing to do with people! I couldn't help but fall into confusion. Is there really a drought in this world? Or is it the thing called drought in the locals?
Actually, it is a species that is not known to others?" My heart couldn't help but be moved, thinking: "If I could be lucky enough to discover this new species, wouldn't I leave a glorious mark in the history of human science?" Thinking of this, I took out a magnifying glass from my bag and carefully looked at the layer of white hair covered on the surface of the corpse. Yes, those white hairs grew on the skin of the corpse, and the mouth of this strange corpse was wide open. From the outside, you could see its mouth full of white teeth. It can be judged by its teeth that when this monster was alive, it must be a carnivorous animal, not only cruel but also dangerous!
I looked at it with a magnifying glass for a long time, and the more I looked at it, the more I felt that the corpse was not a drought-ba, it should be an animal that had never been seen before in the outside world. I couldn't help but be amazed and thought to myself: "If I could transport this corpse back to the UK, I wonder how much sensation it would cause internationally?"
Zheng Nanpo knew nothing about zoology. Seeing that I was so interested in this corpse, he couldn't help but ask me in a low voice, "Brother Charlie, is this corpse really a drought horn?" Seeing that I didn't agree, he stretched out his fingers and poked the shriveled corpse and said, "It's a drought horn? It's quite scary!"
The third brother said dissatisfiedly: "Uncle, be careful and don't poke the things off!"
Zheng Nanpodao: "Don't we give all the money? Why, can't you even poke it?"
The third brother said, "Uncle, why are you becoming more and more confused as you get older? You just gave me the money you paid for, but I haven't given the money you took to do it yet!"
Zheng Nanpo was so angry that he almost turned his back by these unsavory words from the third brother. He snorted with a slight smile, turned his back and stopped looking at the corpse!
I squatted on the ground, my legs were numb, so I asked the third brother: "How many days have this thing been dead?"
The third brother sucked his teeth and rolled his eyes and said, "It's been several days. If I hadn't had my inspiration and dried him, you wouldn't have seen it now!" I asked him again, how much can this thing be evenly paid for me? The third brother smiled and said, "I won't sell it no matter how much you give it!"
I asked why? The third brother smiled and said, "I have sold this thing to Father Fernando long ago!" After that, he wrapped the mummies on the ground in silk cloth. I grabbed his hand and asked, "Which Fernando are you talking about?"
The third brother said: "Which Fernando is there? That's the one in the city?"
At this time, Xiao Liuzi reminded me: "Sir, what he is talking about is Father Fernando in the Belgian church in the North Market!"
I suddenly realized, "It's him, I don't know how much he promised to give you?" The third brother smiled and said, "This...this..."
I said it's okay, how much he paid,
Can I double it? If it doesn't work, I will double it! The third brother was so happy that his face turned red with flushing, rubbed his hands and said, "This is not very good. Lao Fei even paid the deposit. If I do this, he will cause trouble for me!"
I asked, "How much does he promised to pay you?"
The third brother stretched out three fingers and gestured, "It's not much, he promised to deal with my number!"
How much did I ask? He said, "Thirty taels of silver!"
I said okay, I'll give you ninety taels, you can transfer the body to me! The third brother was overjoyed and said, "It's really? This thing is really worth so much money?"
I said I would pay so much money, of course it is worth the price! The third brother slapped his thigh and jumped three times with joy, saying, "Mr. Charlie, you are my noble man! Your move is ninety taels of silver, which is much more generous than the old Fei... Just for your part, I will not be vague. Take out the money and I will give you the things now!"
I said yes, and turned around and went to get my bag, but saw Xiao Liuzi blinking at me! I thought to myself, what's wrong with Xiao Liuzi? Does he have something to tell me? I felt something was wrong, so I covered my stomach and said, "Oh, why did my stomach suddenly hurt? It must be that I had a broken food at noon today! Third, where is your toilet?"
The third brother said: "The toilet is in the yard!"
I staggered to the door with my leather bag, turned around and said to Xiao Liuzi, "Xiao Liuzi, please help me shine!" Xiao Liuzi said "Oh" and illuminated me in front of me with a lantern! The third brother glanced at Zheng Nanpo and shouted to me, "Mr. Charlie, the toilet is dark, be careful!"
I responded and said, "Okay!".
Xiao Liuzi and I opened the door and walked into the yard. Xiao Liuzi carried the lantern and turned to me and said, "Sir, be careful under my feet!" I nodded and signaled him to go quickly! Xiao Liuzi and I walked outside the toilet door. I lifted up my clothes, lowered my voice and asked Xiao Liuzi, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Liuzi turned around and looked into the room, whispered to me: "Sir, you're fooled!"
I asked, "Why are you fooled? Do you make it clear?"
Xiao Liuzi panicked: "Sir, stop asking, just know that thing is fake! Now I don't have time to explain to you..."
I walked into the cottage, stood inside and asked, "How did you know?"
Xiao Liuzi said: "A few days ago, I saw them sneaky and guessed what they were going to do. I didn't expect that the person they were going to cheat was actually Mr."
I pretended to have finished going to the toilet and returned to the house with ease. When the third brother saw that I was back, he hurriedly came up and said to me, "Mr. Charlie, when can you pay the money? Then we can also clear the money and not owe each other!"
I beat him and said, "This shit reminds me of something!"
The third brother said inexplicably: "What's the matter? Mr. Charlie, what do you mean?"
I smiled and said, "What I mean, it's better to slow down our transaction first. After all, ninety taels of silver are not a small amount. I have to ask for instructions on whether to buy it or not!"
When the third brother heard my temporary change of mind, his face pulled down. He looked fierce and said, "You can't make the decision, are you playing cymbals with me?"
