That was…Water bottle?
Ruo Shui's eyes lit up when she saw a large gourd hanging in front of a wine shop.
What he needed the most now was something to hold water. This gourd was undoubtedly the best choice. It was like the kettle in the world before he transmigrated. As long as he tied a rope, he could carry it with him and drink it at any time.
Ruo Shui quickly walked to the entrance of the shop and looked at the big yellow gourd hanging on the beam above her head. The more she looked, the more satisfied she became.
The color of yellow matched the color of his daoist robe very well, didn't it? It looked as if it was tailor-made for him!
I want it!
Ruo Shui instantly made a decision.
The owner of the wine shop saw Ruo Shui at the door and greeted her with a smile,""Little Taoist priest, do you want to buy this wine gourd?”
She glanced at the enthusiastic wine shop owner Ruo Shui and nodded lightly,""Hmm, how much is this wine gourd?”
"It's not expensive, it's not expensive. It's twenty wen." The boss said with a smile.
In fact, this wine gourd usually only cost ten wen. However, he could tell at a glance that Ruoshui, who had a tender face, was a young Taoist priest who had not gone down the mountain much, so he wanted to ruthlessly rip Ruoshui off.
"Twenty copper coins?"
Ruoshui was a little confused. How much was 20 wen? After coming to this world, he had never touched these things. The only money he had touched was the fifty taels of silver he had obtained from Qian He. He really did not know how much twenty wen was.
Seeing that Ruoshui was stunned, the boss smiled even more happily. This little Daoist really had not gone down the mountain much. He did not even know how much twenty wen was!
He smiled and explained,"One tael of silver is equivalent to one thousand wen. One thousand wen. How much is twenty wen? You should understand now, right?"”
"One tael of silver is one thousand wen?”
Ruo Shui suddenly understood. If that was the case, wouldn't the fifty taels of silver notes she had on her be fifty thousand wen? It looked like a lot.
Since she knew the fact that she was a tycoon, Ruoshui naturally did not hesitate to buy this wine gourd!
Waving her small hand, Ruo Shui said loudly,""I want this wine gourd!"
"No problem, little Taoist priest. I'll help you take it off now.”
The owner happily took the gourd from the beam and placed it in Ruoshui's hand. At the same time, he spread his hand in front of Ruoshui and gently rubbed his thumb, index finger, and middle finger.
Ruo Shui understood what the boss meant and immediately took out a banknote from her pocket and placed it in the boss's hand.
"Fifty taels of silver?"
The boss was shocked when he saw the amount of money in his hand.
"What's wrong?" Ruoshui looked at the boss strangely.""Is there a problem with my money?"
"No problem! Of course not!"
The boss wiped the saliva that was about to flow out of the corner of his mouth. He felt a little regretful that so much money was not his. However, he could only helplessly go to the back to exchange for Ruoshui's silver notes.
Soon, the boss came out with four ten-tael notes, one five-tael note, and four taels of shadow half-hung notes. He placed the money in Ruoshui's hands.
"Little Taoist priest, this is your change.”
Ruo Shui carefully counted and found that the amount was not bad. She put the silver notes into her pocket and put more than half of the money into her yellow cloth bag.
On the road less than five meters behind Ruoshui, Da Wanying looked at Ruoshui in surprise. She didn't expect Ruoshui to have so much money with her. She remembered that Ruoshui and Little Wanying almost starved to death on the roadside when they met. She thought he was a poor man!
Seeing that Ruoshui was about to leave with the wine gourd, the boss suddenly became a little anxious. Ruoshui had so much money on her. If he did not take a little more from her, he really felt very unwilling.
He quickly put on a smile and asked,"Little Taoist priest, don't you want to buy something? Look at my family's fine wine. It's famous within a hundred miles. Its name is Seven Mile Fragrance. That fragrance wafts ten miles and is very delicious!”
"Wine?"
Hearing the boss's introduction, Ruoshui unconsciously thought of the three glasses of wine she had drunk with the old heavenly master before she left the mountain. She subconsciously swallowed her saliva.
Should I buy wine? But his master had said that drinking would cause trouble!
Seeing that Ruoshui was a little tempted, the boss quickly opened a jar of wine and placed it in front of Ruoshui,""Little Taoist priest, come and smell the wine in my house.”
The strong smell of wine entered Ruoshui's nose. Ruoshui was a little drunk, and the old heavenly master's exhortations were thrown to the back of his mind.
The wine gourd was put down and Ruo Shui opened her mouth to say,"Then, Boss, help me fill this wine gourd!" Also, give me a wine gourd, but I don't want any wine in that wine gourd.”
"Alright! No problem!"
The boss was overjoyed and quickly followed Ruoshui's instructions.
Soon, the wine gourd was filled and a new wine gourd was placed in front of Ruo Shui. The owner smiled and said,"Little Taoist priest, twenty taels of silver!"
"What is it? So expensive?" Ruo Shui was a little shocked. A gourd cost twenty copper coins, and a gourd of wine cost twenty taels?
Seeing that Ruoshui was a little frightened, the boss quickly explained,""It's like this. Our wine is brewed with mountain spring water, carefully selected grains, and many precious medicinal herbs. It's hard to come by, so the price is naturally a little expensive. Five taels of silver for one catty. This gourd of wine is four catties, so it's a total of twenty taels of silver. I'll give it to you for free!"
"But it's too expensive!" Ruoshui was a little reluctant. This wine was so expensive that it had cost him three-fifths of his money. If he spent all this money, he would be a pauper!
Ruo Shui had never considered the possibility of her boss lying to her. In his opinion, she did not know her boss at all. There was no need to rip her off like this, right?
"Good wine naturally has a good price. This price isn't expensive at all!" the boss said with a smile.”
The boss was smiling on the surface but also on the inside. This wine was not worth five taels of silver per catty. It was only twenty wen per catty. However, this was the first time he saw Ruoshui and he knew that she must have passed by their town, so he planned to rip Ruoshui off ruthlessly.
The wine had already been filled, and Ruoshui felt a little embarrassed. She gritted her teeth and prepared to take the money."Then…"
"Boss, give me 10 catties of wine.”
A middle-aged man in a long robe suddenly walked into the wine shop and pointed at the wine that the boss had just poured for Ruoshui.
"Sigh! Good! No problem."
The boss nodded enthusiastically when the regular customers arrived. He turned around and went in to get the tools to hold the wine. He had forgotten that he was still slaughtering Ruoshui.
Looking at the long-robed middle-aged man beside her, Ruo Shui could not help but exclaim,""Uncle, you're so rich! Five taels of silver for one catty of wine and he bought ten catties at once. That was fifty taels of silver!”
"What is it? Five taels of silver for one jin?" The middle-aged man was frightened by Ruoshui's words. He opened his mouth and shouted at the boss,""Boss Wang, your wine costs five taels of silver per catty? Isn't it twenty wen per jin?"
The moment these words were said, the owner who had just turned around with the wine set was stunned. Ruoshui was also stunned! The gaze he looked at the boss turned from shock to coldness.
