After Chen Li and the others returned to the county, the first thing they did was to cash out the jewelry.
“I’ll take these silver and bracelets for you, but the price of gold is a little cheaper now. After a while, the price of gold on the market will rise again. It’s not suitable for you to sell the gold now.”
There was only one place in the county that bought jewelry, and this shop assistant was very honest. She would speak honestly and did not take advantage of the customers at all. No wonder this shop could stay in the county for so long.
“It looks like this lady is pregnant. Our shop also provides replacement and processing services. Why don’t you add some more money, and we’ll offer some gold to add to the gold in your hands. Then, we’ll melt and process it. We can make a gold lock for this unborn baby!”
The shop assistant gave a very kind hint.
“I think this is a good idea. What do you think, boss?”
In the past, they were poor. When the baby was born, they gave him a safety lock made of silver. However, the conditions at home were a little better. Chen Li wanted to give the baby better conditions.
“I think it’s okay. Then, including the gold we brought, how many grams of gold should we add? Or how much more money should we add?”
Yun Shan asked the salesperson.
“Since you are all big customers today, I won’t charge you for the processing fee for making the gold lock. However, this gold has to be paid to me at today’s price. There’s no way it can be cheaper.”
The salesperson smiled and looked very amiable.
“Today’s gold price is about 42 yuan per gram. If you want to customize a small-sized gold lock, you have to add at least 15 grams of gold to it. It’s because you still have to make another gold pendant for the child. So you can just add 630 yuan.”
630 yuan was already a very expensive price. It could be seen that the expressions on the Yun Shan couple’s faces were wavering. They could not lower the standard of living of the family for the sake of this unborn child. That would be letting down the current son and daughter, right?
“Alright, then let’s customize this gold lock. I’ll make up for the remaining difference in price.”
Yun Xi reached into her black cloth bag and took out the money she had stored in her space. She took out all the money, and it was exactly 630 yuan.
“How can you have so much money?”
Yun Shan was very surprised.
“This is the scholarship that the school gave me when I got first place in the exam. Since I didn’t have anything to spend money on, I saved it up. Now, consider it my first gift to my unborn sibling.”
630 yuan was a lot of money for the Yun Shan couple, but it was nothing to the real boss of the pharmacy and clothing store, Yun Xi.
“Alright, it will take about half a month to process this golden lock. This is the receipt I have written for you. You can come and collect it from me in half a month’s time. Our shop has been around for a hundred years. We don’t cheat on our customers. Don’t worry, we will run away once we receive the money.”
Seeing Chen Li’s incredulous expression, the shop assistant explained.
The money had been exchanged and the Yun Xi family had left the shop.
Chen Li was pregnant, so she was naturally very careful. Yun Shan supported her as they walked in front while Yunyang circled around Chen Li.
Yun Xi and Zhou Lin took the receipts and followed behind them.
“Do you like that golden lock? From what they said, you probably didn’t wear this golden lock when you were young. If you like it, I can order a bigger one for you.”
Zhou Lin leaned against Yun Xi’s ear and asked.
Yun Xi admitted that for a moment just now, she really envied her unborn younger sibling. With her current financial situation, it would not be a problem for her to buy a bigger golden lock.
What she bought was only a big golden lock. The golden lock that Zhou Lin bought for her was his longing for her. It was his exclusive love for her.
