“I understand what you mean now. The young master of Treasure Emporium urgently needs pearls. I will tell Mother so she has an idea and can get a good price.”

At this moment, Su Qingluo was only five years old. It was enough for her to hear about the royal secret news, but state affairs were too far away from her, so there was no need to be too entangled about them.

“Okay, I’ll go and listen to what else they have said. If there’s anything interesting, I’ll come back and tell you.”

The gossip-loving Little Kingfisher immediately severed the mental connection.

“Oh dear, this guy always goes where there’s excitement. I wonder who he learned this eavesdropping habit from.”

Su Qingluo reined in her thoughts and hugged the drowsy Little Baby who was swaying in the carriage. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, revealing a playful, shallow smile.

Su Hu drove the carriage to the Treasure Emporium, parked it at the entrance, and went inside the hall with his family, heading straight to the counter selling pearl jewelry.

With Li Xiu’e’s experience in selling ginseng and Lingzhi mushrooms in Kongshantang in recent years, she simply inquired about the prices of the pearl jewelry and took the initiative to ask the young shopkeeper to see their manager.

Seeing her plain clothing, the young shopkeeper was taken aback at first, but then he quickly came to his senses and hurriedly led them to the backyard.

“Mother, if the price they give is less than 100 taels of silver per pearl, don’t sell. ”

With Little Baby in her arms, Su Qingluo roughly understood the market for pearl jewelry and had a plan.

“Hmm, I’ll listen to Sister Jade.”

Upon hearing the price of 100 taels per pearl, Li Xiu’e’s breath paused briefly, and then she straightened her back as if she had found her backbone, her face full of joy.

100 taels per pearl, with a total of thirty-six pearls, made 3,600 taels. They had enough money to buy a house now.

Selling the pearls went even smoother than Su Qingluo had expected. When the young master of Treasure Emporium saw the thirty-six pearls, each the size of a pigeon egg, his expression changed from dumbstruck to overjoyed to crying with happiness. His brilliant transformations were as good as a stage actor’s performance.

With thirty-six pearls of different colors and sizes, under Su Qingluo’s occasional hesitation and feigned reluctance, they were sold for an astonishing price.

When the family walked out of Treasure Emporium, Su Hu and his wife’s pockets were filled with silver notes from Jufeng Bank, each worth 100 taels, sixty in total.

Thirty-six pearls sold for 6,000 taels.

The couple was almost knocked out by the weight of the silver, feeling like they were walking on clouds, unable to find their footing. As they floated out of the door, they were so dizzy that they almost couldn’t find their carriage.

Su Hu was so excited that he couldn’t sleep all night. Early the next morning, with dark circles under his eyes, he quickly finished breakfast and hurried to the agency with his wife and children. After paying the remaining money, he pocketed the keys to the house they had their eyes on.

“Sir, do you need a doorkeeper or a maid for your home?”

The agency clerk, having received the payment, smiled with teeth wide, offering additional services: “If you need them, sir, we know a well-acquainted matchmaker who has suitable candidates ready to be introduced at any time.”

“My dear, Sister Qiao is all alone in the county town studying, it would be good for her to have some company.”

Su Hu was moved. With money in his pocket and newfound confidence, he didn’t want his children to suffer.

“Father, I don’t need a maid.”

Su Ziqin hurriedly stopped him: “I can cook and wash clothes, I don’t need anyone to serve me. Besides, I can concentrate better when I study alone.

Having someone watching me would make me uncomfortable.”

“We don’t need a maid urgently, but a doorkeeper is necessary.”

Li Xiu’e had a more far-reaching plan: “It’s safer to have someone watch the house. When Doudou grows up and comes to study in the county town, there will be someone to take care of him.’

“Mhm.”

Since Su Hu always listened to his wife, seeing that she wanted to buy a doorkeeper, he immediately discussed a time to meet the candidates with the agency clerk.

“Sir, if you want to look, you can go anytime, even now.”

The agency clerk smiled brilliantly, full of enthusiasm, and jumped onto the front shaft of the carriage to guide Su Hu and lead them to find the acquainted matchmaker..
