When Chen Chu walked into the back hall, an energetic old man was kneeling on a small side and carefully looking at the two hundred-dollar bills. The focused old man did not notice Chen Chu and his friend who had already entered the back hall.

Chen Chu immediately looked around. The furnishings in the back hall were very ordinary, and they were not as fierce as they imagined. Chen Chu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Shopkeeper, the young man has brought the owner." The guy walked to the old man and said softly.

At this time, the old shopkeeper woke up and looked up at Chen Chu. Chen Chu noticed that the old shopkeeper first showed a hint of surprise, then got up and greeted him enthusiastically. Chen Chu understood that the hint of surprise exposed by the other party was aimed at his outfit that was very different from the ancients.

"Please sit, please sit." The old shopkeeper led Chen Chu to the side of the small table, and then he knelt down opposite Chen Chu.

Just as he was about to speak, the old shopkeeper noticed that the shopkeeper was still standing next to him, so he said, "It's nothing to do with you, go and take care of him." The shopkeeper responded and then retreated.

"This young master, haven't you asked for the name of the surname? "The old shopkeeper clasped his fists at Chen Chu, looking quite respectful.

Chen Chu also followed the other party's appearance and clasped his fists and said, "I dare not, I have the surname Chen, and I have the character Chu."

The old shopkeeper nodded and said, "Young Master Chen, I will just say it. I hope to buy these two paintings in my store." The old shopkeeper said this with meaning. Buying and dying are two different concepts. If it is dying, then the pawnshop basically belongs to the original owner, but the premise is that within the prescribed period, the mortgagor can take out the money for redemption. During this period, the pawnshop cannot dispose of the mortgaged items at will; and buying is different. After completing the transaction, the items will belong to the pawnshop. There is also a name in the pawnshop, called Dead Dang.

Chen Chu is also a person who has been on the court for several years, so of course he can understand the meaning of the old shopkeeper. Chen Chu originally meant that he hoped to sell some money.

Chen Chu nodded and said, "Okay, the old shopkeeper, please give a price."

When the old shopkeeper saw the young man in front of him with a calm expression and confident look, he couldn't help but feel that the other party was also an expert, so he did not dare to cheat. After thinking about it for a while, he gave a price.

"Five thousand golds, what do you think of Mr. Chen?" The old shopkeeper stretched out his five fingers and said boldly, but he waited for a while but the other party did not react at all.

The old shopkeeper looked at the other party's indifferent smile and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Mr. Liu seemed to be really an expert! He was afraid that he would have to make some blood!

In fact, what the old shopkeeper didn't know was that the "expert" opposite him was so shocked that he couldn't speak. Although Chen Chu didn't know much about history, he also knew that in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, five thousand gold was definitely a huge fortune.

Mom! I’ve sent it! It was so valuable if I didn’t have the RMB in ancient times! I still had about thirty bills on it, so how much gold would I have to pay!

Although Chen Chu was inexplicably excited, he did not show any performance on the surface. This was his ability to struggle in the business world over the past few years.

"Six thousand gold! Mr. Chen is the highest price that my store can pay!" The old shopkeeper looked at Chen Chu nervously. This was a big deal. If it was done, he would have a lot of benefits. Don't think that this was the ancients who were crazy about being crazy and used a lot of gold to exchange these two unproductive RMB. You must know that the making of banknotes was also extremely profound in the modern society of Chen Chu's previous life. Otherwise, why can't fake banknotes be faked to be real? In ancient times nearly two thousand years ago, the craftsmanship of these banknotes could only be described by miracles, and the value is absolutely difficult to estimate. This is why the old shopkeeper was willing to pay a lot of money to buy these two banknotes. His vision was very poisonous!

Hearing the newly reported numbers from the other party, Chen Chu's heart was almost stopped beating. He suppressed his excitement and nodded gently.

Seeing Chen Chu nodding, the old shopkeeper finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, the old shopkeeper slapped the door outside, and a man with a knife pushed the door and walked in.

The man clasped his fists at the old shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, what are the instructions?"

"Go and bring you six thousand golds."

The man with a knife was obviously surprised and asked in surprise: "Six thousand gold?"

The old shopkeeper nodded and waved his hand and said, "Go quickly."

"Yes." The man with a knife responded, then turned around and left.

This man with a knife should be the bodyguard of this pawn shop. Chen Chu thought so.

After the man left, the old shopkeeper said to Chen Chu again: "Prince Chen, please stay for a while." Chen Chu nodded without saying a word.

About half an hour later, the man with a knife had finally returned. Behind him were six strong men. They walked into the back hall with three large wooden boxes.

Before Chen Chu could react, the old shopkeeper said to the man with a knife: "Open it."

"Yes." The man with a knife clasped his fists at the old shopkeeper and then opened the three large boxes.

Suddenly, a dazzling gold color appeared in front of Chen Chu. Looking at so much gold, Chen Chu finally failed to maintain his image and was stunned on the spot.

The old shopkeeper kept secretly watching Mr. Chen. Seeing him showing a dull and shocked expression, he immediately speculated in his heart: Mr. Chen should not be the young master of a wealthy family. Judging from his appearance, he probably had never seen so much money in his life. I don't expect that the old shopkeeper really guessed it right.

At this time, Chen Chu had no intention of paying attention to the old shopkeeper's mental activities. He was now extremely excited by the golden color in front of him.

After a while, Chen Chu gradually calmed down, and then he began to worry. How could he take these large boxes of gold with him?

"Shopkeeper, you've given the gold tickets, why do you get these large boxes of gold?" Chen Chu said to the old shopkeeper with a puzzled look on his face.

"Golden ticket? What is that?" Unexpectedly, the old shopkeeper asked in a daze.

Chen Chu was stunned, what? Is there no such thing as gold and silver bills in this era?

Seeing that Chen Chu did not answer, the old shopkeeper was stunned and looked absent-minded, he asked again. Chen Chu, who had woken up, quickly responded vaguely.

What should I do? If I brought these large boxes of gold into the inn, I wouldn’t have clearly told the robbers that I would come and rob me if I have money! I’m afraid I would have moved in today and would have to lie down the next day!

Chen Chu looked at the gold in front of him and felt extremely distressed.

The old shopkeeper noticed Chen Chu's difficulties, so he asked tentatively: "Young Master Chen is in a dilemma about how to resettle this gold goods?"

Chen Chu frowned and nodded.

The old shopkeeper was an enthusiastic person, so he immediately considered Chen Chu. This young master obviously had no power, otherwise he would not have been troubled by this matter. For the sake of the current plan, he had to settle down in Leping County first.

A moment later, the old shopkeeper said to Chen Chu: "I have a house in this city. If the young master doesn't dislike it, just move in for the time being."

When Chen Chu heard this, he thought to himself: This is safer than staying in an inn, and it is the only way for the time being.

Thinking of this, Chen Chu immediately clasped his fists at the old shopkeeper and said, "Then Chen thanked my father in advance. By the way, how should we algorithm this rent?"

The old shopkeeper waved his hand generously, "What is the rent or not? Just stay here, and the house is idle."

Seeing that the other party looked sincere, Chen Chu stopped giving in.

On the same day, Chen Chu moved into the house. The old shopkeeper also asked the shopkeeper to bring in the big boxes of gold.

This house is not far from Yuelai Inn. Although it is a bit simple, it is finally a place to stay.

Chen Chu sat in the yard and stared at the blue sky. What should he do next? Accept famous officials and famous generals?

Thinking of this, Chen Chu couldn't help but smile bitterly. In his previous life, he was often like this, but when he was here, he realized that it was not easy to survive and integrate into this era, let alone to win over the world and dominate the world! After all, reality is reality, not a game.

The first thing you need to understand now is the social rules of this era before you can talk about other things. But how should you understand this? Chen Chu thought for a moment and suddenly thought of the shopkeeper. By the way, he has a bit of friendship with this old shopkeeper, so it is better to go to his stream to learn some useful information from time to time. But he seems to not know his name yet, which is really rude!

After making up his mind, Chen Chu always rushed to the back hall of the pawnshop for some reason and chatted with the old shopkeeper.

The old shopkeeper, whose surname is Zhang, is Yidu, whose courtesy name is Qianhe, is an elder of Wei Hong's family. Since Leping is an important north-south hub for the Wei family's business, Wei Hong asked Wei Du, who was an elder, to take charge here. If it weren't for this, Wei Du would not have mobilized a huge sum of 6,000 gold.

After a few days, the two became quite familiar. One day, Chen Chu asked Wei Du: "Duke Wei, don't you know if anyone in Leping County wants to sell land?" The reason why Chen Chu asked this was because he was eager to develop his own power, and to establish a force, he had to have land first. According to historical records, the Yellow Turban Rebellion will occur in only one year, and the world will be in chaos, and to survive in troubled times, you must have considerable strength. Chen Chu decided to use the six thousand gold as startup funds in this year to farm land to absorb refugees and make friends with heroes from all over the world.

Wei Du didn't know that Chen Chu had thought so much, but when he heard the other party ask this, his eyes lit up after thinking for a while, "It's a small gentry who decided to sell the land."

Chen Chu couldn't help but get excited and said quickly: "That's great! But why did the other party sell the land?"

"I heard that I was going to Luoyang to be an official, but I didn't have enough money, so I had to sell land."

Chen Chu nodded and thought to himself: It became a trend to buy officials and sell officials in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and Emperor Ling of Han even sold all the official positions clearly marked and sold them publicly. The little gentry mentioned by Duke Wei wanted to buy an official.

"Duke Wei, how much land does the other party have in his hands? How much finance is about to be needed?"

Wei Du thought for a moment and said, "He is just a little gentry, with less than 5,000 acres of land. He is very anxious to ask for money, so he should be able to buy it with three thousand gold."
