It was not just the merchant surnamed Jiang who had such an experience. The other four merchants who bought gold watches had almost the same experience.
Suddenly, wealthy businessmen in the capital became aware of the news and began to inquire about the origin of the gold watch. When they learned that the gold watches were sold by the watch shop, but were not put up for public sale and could only be purchased by making an appointment in advance, these people rushed to the door of the watch shop in a swarm, almost crowding the door down.
The people who were originally gathered around the door to watch the excitement saw so many gorgeously decorated carriages arriving all of a sudden. Everyone who got off the carriages was a well-known rich man in the capital, and there were even stewards and* from the Duke's house. **'s domestic servant.
The people immediately moved away and gave way to the door.
At the same time, they were also curious about what these people were doing here, and they stretched their necks to watch the fun.
However, these people are destined to be disappointed, no matter what their identity or background, whether they speak politely or have a bad temper.
The watch shop just said, "No!"
As for when it will be available, I don’t know!
They were disappointed. When they learned that Fu Yong still had five gold watches in his hand, they immediately stepped over Fu Yong's threshold.
The merchant in front was still in touch with Fu Yong and wanted to get the gold watch.
The person who came in later bowed slightly and said with a smile, "Uncle Fu, my master is the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. I heard that Mr. Fu has a gold watch, so I came here to see it."
Fu Yong never thought that a gold watch could make these prostitutes so shameless. What kind of knowledge do you want to take away from yourself?
"What the hell!" Before Fu Yong could say anything, someone sneered and rushed over, sneering at the housekeeper just now. "You can't even buy one of these things for fifty thousand coins outside. Can your poor servant afford it?"
"If you can afford it, that's corruption! If you can't afford it, why do you still want to steal it?"
"You! You" The housekeeper was so angry that he was speechless.

"You, your uncle!" The person who came was more arrogant than him, and he was about to hit him with a punch.
The housekeeper was not stupid and quickly avoided it.
The visitor did not urge him, but just shouted "Get out!"
The butler's face was full of shame and anger, but he did not dare to step forward and could only leave angrily with a flick of his sleeves.
Seeing the butler leave, the visitor turned to Fu Yong and said with a smile, "My Lord Marquis likes gold watches very much. Please tell me a price. You can ask for a price. My Lord Marquis has plenty of money."
Fu Yong suddenly smiled bitterly. To be honest, he really liked the person in front of him more than the housekeeper just now. After all, the housekeeper obviously wanted to have sex for free, and this one at least knew how to pay for it, and was willing to pay a high price.
But he, Fu Yong, is a businessman. How dare he ask the Marquis for a high price?
Fu Yong sighed, took out the gold watch from his arms, and said with a smile, "The noble is joking. As we all know, the villain bought this gold watch for ten thousand yuan each. Since the noble appreciates the favor, the villain will give it to the noble at the original price." "
"Sensible." The visitor gave a thumbs up to Fu Yong and said with a smile, "Don't worry, we accept this offer for the Marquis. If you encounter trouble in the future, you can come to the Marquis's Mansion in Heqing."
After saying that, the visitor rubbed his hands excitedly and said with a smile, "Take them all out."
Fu Yong nodded slightly and motioned to the housekeeper to get the things.
"Old Zhang! You old boy has such a big appetite, what's wrong? Do you want to eat all five gold watches?" Suddenly there was a loud voice outside the door, and a strong man strode in.
Behind the strong man, there were several people.
"That's right, have you asked my Lord Marquis? Do you want to eat them all?"
most
Later, all five of Fu Yong's gold watches were sold at their original prices. At first, he was inexplicably excited. The wealthy businessmen were looking for gold watches everywhere, but they couldn't find any.
Even the gold watches in the hands of the other five merchants. That night, someone came to the door and bought it for the same price of 10,000 yuan.
Fang Mansion.
Fang Xiaoru heard some rumors about gold watches, saying how rare they were. But he didn't
He didn't care, but he wasn't interested in it in the first place, and he didn't ask about the price.
But when he heard the word "gold watch", he suddenly remembered the one he snatched from Han Du.
Where was it placed? Fang Xiaoru recalled it, and it seemed to be in the study.
Fang Xiaoru turned around and walked towards the study.
Opening the drawer on the right, you can see a gold watch quietly placed inside.
Hold it in your hand, press hard with your thumb, and there will be a "ding" sound, and the lid will open. Seeing that the hands inside had stopped moving, Fang Xiaoru recalled the method Han Du taught him.
Twist the right spring until it stops. Sure enough, as soon as he started twisting, he saw the pointer starting to move rhythmically again.
"Pop", close the lid.
"Ding", open again
Fang Xiaoru played with it for a few times and found it a bit fun, then he started opening and closing the lid continuously.
At this moment, Fang Xiaoru's son Fang Dezong walked in, and he saw the gold watch on his father's hand at a glance.
He walked forward in three steps and asked in surprise, "Is this a gold watch? Dad, where did you get it?"
"What?" Fang Xiaoru was having sex and looked up at his son.
Fang Dezong swallowed and lowered his voice and said, "Dad, do you know how much this gold watch is worth?"
Fang Xiaoru spread his hands,
He weighed the gold watch and said with a smile, "How much is a piece of gold worth? Maybe one or two hundred guan."
One or two hundred strings is just a drop in the bucket for Han Du. I rob him because I think highly of him!
Fang Dezong's eyes widened when he saw that his father really didn't know the value of this gold watch.
"What's wrong?" Fang Xiaoru frowned in confusion when she saw her son's expression.
Fang Dezong did not speak, but stretched out a hand towards his father with his fingers spread wide.
"Five hundred strings?" Fang Xiaoru was a little confused, but didn't think it was anything.
Fang Dezong shook his head vigorously, continued to shake his palm in front of his father, and said in a dry voice, "Guess again."
"Five thousand guan? Impossible." Fang Xiaoru lowered his head in disbelief, and looked at the gold watch a few more times. No matter how he thought this thing was not worth 5,000 guan, he sneered and said, "Who would buy this thing for 5,000 guan?" ?」
Fang Dezong still shook his head and continued, "Guess again!"
"Fifty thousand guan?" Fang Xiaoru's voice changed. This time it was his turn to widen his eyes in disbelief.
Fang Dezong suddenly took back his hand and said seriously, "It's fifty thousand guan. Even though so many people want to buy it, they still can't buy it. If dad takes out this gold watch, maybe it can be sold for a higher price!"
"Buying this for 50,000 yuan? Are you crazy?" Fang Xiaoru shook his head repeatedly, in disbelief.
Fang Dezong gave a bitter smile and sighed, "Are you crazy? Dad, you don't know how lively it was in the capital the past few days. Countless people were scrambling to find out about this gold watch. It was no different from being crazy." .”
Thinking about it, even Fang Dezong chased him for a while a few days ago, hoping to see the true face of Jin Biao, but after chasing him for several days, he was not even qualified to meet him.
Unexpectedly, Dad actually had one in his hand. Fang Dezong didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
