Unable to stop Zhu Junyang from committing smoking, Yu Xiaocao ignored him and said to shopkeeper Zhang: "If you buy all the remaining jade, how much money will I have to pay you?"
"Uh..." Shopkeeper Zhang secretly looked at his master, and gave away top-grade mutton jade worth tens of millions. Would the master still pay attention to these "little money"? Although these add up to more than six figures... It hurts to think about it!
"Look, what are you doing? You can take the rest as you like!" With that said, Zhu Junyang avoided the little girl's sight, and made a vaguely suggestive expression towards shopkeeper Zhang. Some money must be collected, otherwise the little girl will definitely leave in embarrassment and won't take a single piece of jade. As for his betrothal gift, it is estimated that it will be difficult to give it away after the New Year.
Shopkeeper Zhang received the message from his master and smiled kindly: "Miss Yu, the two pieces of mutton fat jade you are holding are the smaller one ten thousand taels of silver and the larger one fifteen thousand taels of silver. The white jade and sapphires add up to 5,000 taels for you, and the total is 30,000 taels. You were brought here by the master himself, and I will give you the lowest discount in the store, and you only need to pay 15,000 taels!"
Yu Xiaocao stopped arguing, after all, if Zhu Junyang wanted to spend in her store, she would give the lowest discount if she was there. Shun Shun paid the silver, looking at the few pieces of unremarkable jade, she felt a pain in the flesh.
It is said that gold is priceless and jade is priceless, which is too expensive! Yu Xiaocao sighed in her heart. If she didn't have the lucrative business of "Hua Xiangrong", she would not be willing to spend tens of thousands of taels if she was killed, just to buy a few broken stones!
"Miss Yu, don't worry, these old jade slaves will definitely choose the best carver for you to process. Do you have any special requirements?" Shopkeeper Zhang lowered his posture. The master has already said that the dowry will be given after the new year, and the little girl's future mistress status is almost certain.
Shopkeeper Zhang saw Yu Xiaocao for the first time, and was confused by her casualness and indifference. He thought that if it was a little peasant girl, she would definitely feel uneasy and a little apprehensive after entering such a magnificent Zhiyuzhai and seeing the dazzling array of rare treasures. But this little girl didn't, and the demeanor of Mrs. Fang and the two maids behind her gave him the illusion that the master had changed his pursuit. (If Zhu Junyang knows that he thinks so, he will definitely want to pry his head open to see what is inside!!)
But later, the title "Miss Yu" broke his illusion again! Who doesn't know that the Yu family is a new rich man in Beijing. Although they are not of high birth, low official position, and embarrassing status, no one in Beijing dares to openly offend the Yu family.
You know, after the winter comes, the dinner tables of the rich and powerful families in Beijing will be in the hands of her family! Even if you don't care about your appetite, doesn't it guarantee that your daughter-in-law doesn't love beauty
It is a woman's nature to love beauty. Due to the excellent quality of "Huaxiangrong" products and services, many ladies with skin problems have obtained satisfactory results after using the products. Once spread to ten, ten spread to hundreds, most of the ladies and gentlemen in the capital have applied for membership cards in "Hua Xiangrong".
Even if you don’t have enough financial resources to apply for a card, you can use your savings for a long time to buy a set of skin care products for your skin type. The climate in Beijing is cold and dry in winter. After using "Huaxiangrong" products and then changing to other products, my face is dry and tight like wearing a mask.
Recently, "Huaxiangrong" has launched skin care products for children, which are natural and non-irritating, and can take good care of the baby's skin, bringing good news to the children in Beijing.
You know, the power of the pillow wind is great. Even if an official who is not convinced by Yu Xiaocao as an official is quickly taken down by the gentle offensive of the Hedong Lion Roar and the little padded jackets at home, he can't think of going against the Yu family.
It's just that shopkeeper Zhang didn't expect that the girl from Yu's family was full of style and understood the rules, but she didn't have a rustic atmosphere at all, and she was even more generous and decent than some ladies in Beijing. What he admired the most was that such a small person can tame such a big monster as his master, and make the king of Yangjun, who is known for his cruelty, so docile and docile. ? It seems that in the future, I have to try my best to please the mistress, so that I can sit more securely!
In the blink of an eye, shopkeeper Zhang actually thought so much. And Yu Xiaocao is still discussing with Mrs. Fang what to carve these jade stones into and how to carve them!
"This smaller piece of suet jade is carved into a pair of dragon and phoenix jade pendants. It is quite appropriate to give the jade pendant of dragon and phoenix for the wedding of the young master on Wednesday!" Mrs. Fang weighed in on the gift that she missed last Wednesday. Ten thousand Two jade pendants should not be considered rude. Yu Xiaocao nodded, and decided to give the bride another string of pink pearl bracelets, so that this wedding gift is not thin!
"This piece can make a pair of bracelets. Cao'er, my mother sees that you don't usually have much jewelry, so let's make it according to the size of your wrist!" It is difficult for women to resist jade jewelry, and Mrs. Fang is no exception. However, high-quality jade is hard to come by. How can she, a mother, snatch good jade from her daughter
She doesn't have much jewelry? How can it be? You must know that the man in front of him has put in all his strength to gain her peace of mind, sending things here and there from time to time, most of which are jewelry worn by the little girl. As long as there is something he likes in the Treasure Pavilion, he will send it over. What diamond earrings, necklaces, bracelets, jewelry made of rubies, sapphires, emeralds, and a lot of jade, coral... Her little treasure chest can hardly fit.
After Xiaocao told her godmother that she had enough jewelry, Mrs. Fang shot her a look and said, "Even if you can't wear it, it's good to save it for a dowry in the future!"
The king of Yang County sent such an expensive dowry, so his own dowry would naturally be much richer. Good jade and stone materials are hard to come by. From now on, it should be in time.
Yu Xiaocao rolled her eyes in her heart: Her dowry still needs these for appearance? "Hua Xiangrong", pastry shop, medicine wine shop... which one is not the golden hen that makes money? Picking one out at random is more valuable than that top-grade mutton fat jade that can't be eaten or drunk
"Godmother... how about we have one for each of us, mother and daughter bracelets! I see that the quality of this piece of jade is still good. When Linlin gets married in the future, you can pass the bracelet to my sister-in-law and pass it on as a family heirloom from generation to generation." , can also be regarded as the thoughts of children and grandchildren for their ancestors. What do you think?" Yu Xiaocao glanced at Fang Haolin, who was eating snacks and playing with the new toy Zhu Junyang gave him, and encouraged Mrs. Fang.
When Fang Haolin heard that he was mentioned, he nodded his head vigorously and said, "Okay! One for my sister, one for my little Linlin!"
"It's for your wife, not for you!" Yu Xiaocao helped him wipe off the pastry crumbs on his face, tapped his little forehead, and said with a smile.
Fang Haolin had a natural expression: "My daughter-in-law's is mine!"
"Wrong!" Zhu Junyang came out to show his presence again, "It should be said that what you own belongs to your wife! Why do men work hard outside to make money? Isn't it for their own women and children? Little Linlin, you have to change your mind quickly. In case you don't get a wife in the future, you won't have tears when you cry!"
Hearing this, shopkeeper Zhang firmly held onto the idea that the future mistress' thighs would not relax. The master has said that everything he owns belongs to his wife, and Zhi Yuzhai and his slave are no exception. It seems that he will change masters soon!
Fang Haolin's little friend struggled for a moment, and then reluctantly said: "Okay! Linlin's is all his wife's, and my wife's is mine, okay?"
"No! Everything belongs to your daughter-in-law, and what belongs to your daughter-in-law is still your daughter-in-law's own!" Zhu Junyang followed Xiaocao's words to the end, and he really has the potential to be a twenty-four filial husband.
Fang Haolin's small face wrinkled even harder. He looked at the delicious pastry in his hand, and thought that there would be a little girl who would snatch it from him in the future. Elder sister, said aggrievedly: "Marrying a wife is not fun, Linlin will not marry a wife in the future!" Immediately, everyone in the room was amused!
In the end, Xiaocao made a decision—make two bracelets, one for each mother and daughter. The rest are made of jewelry or jade pendants as New Year gifts for every member of the family. Even Xiao Linlin was assigned a safety buckle!
Then, the mother and daughter strolled around the store again. Xiaocao found out that there was not even a single emerald jewelry in the store. When did jadeite come into China? Yu Xiaocao was only a junior high school graduate in her previous life, and she didn't have much research on jade, so naturally she doesn't know. However, it seems that it was not popular in the early Ming Dynasty!
Thinking of this, her eyes suddenly lit up! The business opportunities are self-evident. Perhaps, she and Zhu Junyang can be the first to eat crabs. Thinking of this, she pulled Zhu Junyang aside, and whispered: "Ruizhi, I thought of a way to make money and need your help, would you like it?"
"Damn it! Don't make money, you bastard!!" Zhu Junyang heard this sentence by chance from Xiaocao!
"Don't you have a team dedicated to foreign trade? In the southwest of our Ming Dynasty, there is a small uncivilized country with many mountains and forests, but they produce a kind of jadeite called 'Jadeite', which comes in green, purple, red, blue, There are many colors of yellow and ink, and the quality is as transparent as glass, as moist as sheep fat jade, and it has similar effects to Hetian jade when worn, and it is very beneficial to the human body!" Yu Xiaocao paused for a while, Looking at Zhu Junyang expectantly.
Zhu Junyang was very curious in his heart, how could she know the world's affairs when she stays at home? Could it be that the stone that has been cultivated to become fine told her? Or maybe, there is the hometown of that colorful stone? Xiao Butianshi rolled his eyes in the arms of his master—man, you are thinking too much!
"You mean... Let Master organize a caravan to go to that unknown small country to trade in jadeite?" Zhu Junyang looked at the little girl's face that shone when she talked about making money, and asked.
