Madam Wulipa was stunned and asked, "What else?"
Jubaozhai is the most famous smuggling shop and antique shop in northern Xinjiang. There is no most expensive thing, only more expensive ones. Many nobles in northern Xinjiang often visit this shop in order to show their identity. To tell the truth, this store is really wide, and you can get almost everything, and the most important point—the backstage of the store is also very clean and reassuring.
"Wait a minute, ladies, I'll bring it here to show the ladies."
After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper went upstairs to fetch a red sandalwood box the size of an adult man's palm. The outside was carved with complex and gorgeous dark patterns. There was a little strange fragrance in the air, and the curiosity of many ladies was aroused. crane your neck and see.
However, they still sat in the same place reservedly, waiting for the shopkeeper to deliver the baby and the child.
"Ladies, please take a look."
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he opened the hidden button with his slender and fair fingers, revealing the treasure inside.
There was plenty of light in the room, and the dazzling light reflected from the light flashed their eyes, almost making them unable to open their eyes, and even a lady raised her hand to cover her eyes in fright, her face turned pale, and her rough voice became sharp.
The sharp voice said in surprise, "Yeah, what is this, so dazzling?"
After a while, everyone slowly got used to it, and the sound of sucking cold air rang out in the room.
I saw a delicate dragon and phoenix hairpin lying quietly inside the red sandalwood box!
The whole body of this hairpin is transparent, and it actually comes from the same source as the previous colored glaze vessel. A dragon and a phoenix are intertwined together. The roots of the dragon and the phoenix are dense and lifelike. The phoenix spreads its wings and wants to fly. The phoenix mouth and the dragon mouth are each holding a string of tassels made of transparent beads, and they are so beautiful that they can't take their eyes off the sun.
The shopkeeper took it out carefully, the beads collided slightly, and the crisp sound was very pleasant.
Liu She handed him 20 glass tea utensils and such a dragon and phoenix hairpin, and he alone made up the price.
Seeing the eyes of these northern ladies, the shopkeeper knew that this dragon and phoenix hairpin could sell for an excellent price.
Women may not like delicate antiques, but they absolutely cannot resist the temptation brought by dazzling jewelry.
The shopkeeper smiled mildly, "This is also obtained by the small shop's waste of energy. Ladies and gentlemen, take a look, how do you feel?"
Mrs. Wu Liba said loudly, "Buy! The shopkeeper is more straightforward and offers a price."
The other ladies don't want it anymore. What's the matter? They bought the best colored glassware, and still want to take over this peerless treasure
The chubby lady raised her chin slightly and her eyes squinted.
She said unhappily, "Mrs. Wu, this is not right. The big guy didn't say not to buy it, how can you make it all by yourself? I want to buy this hairpin too. The shopkeeper, we are all old acquaintances, I know. You have the rules here, it's not as good as the one with the highest price."
The shopkeeper knows how to maximize its value, and he also knows that this kind of transparent and dazzling jewelry cannot be sold only once, so the first slaughter should not be too harsh, so that there is no room for further slaughter.
This principle is similar to that of raising pigs until the festival is over before they are killed. Because of the fat, they are fun to slaughter.
"Ladies, listening to Xiao's words, there is news from the shop that there is more than one piece of jewelry."
The shopkeeper spoke to ease the atmosphere and said, "It's just that they are still in the hands of others, and it will take some time to get them. If you ladies can wait for a while, it's the same when buying them again, don't hurt your anger."
When the ladies heard this, their expressions improved a little. They believed that the shopkeeper's ability was indeed what he wanted.
However, buy early and enjoy early, there are only a few treasures, but there are many people who are fighting.
When the reputation of this dragon and phoenix hairpin spread, I don't know how many noble ladies in northern Xinjiang wanted to buy it, and how many competitors were there at that time
Thinking of this, everyone has different thoughts in their hearts.
At this moment, a familiar male voice came from outside, and Mrs. Wuliba's expression changed, and she was a little unhappy.
The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows secretly. He had long heard about the reputation of the northern border warrior Wu Liba, but now it was the first time he saw him.
If it were an ordinary person, he would probably be nodding his head or bowing in fright at this moment, or showing his ugliness.
But who is the treasurer? He has dealt with many noble nobles in northern Xinjiang. Back then, the eldest princess of Beijiang was in love with him and wanted him to be the guest of honor. He had also dealt with such a big battle, how could he be afraid of a Wu Liba
On the other hand, Wu Liba knew that his wife had spent 41,000 yuan to buy a set of flashy things, and his face was green with anger.
"It's just a bluff, you are a generous woman, and you don't know if you were deceived." Wu Liba said.
Madam Wulipa snorted, cast her husband a white eye, pointed at the set of glass tea utensils and said, "You said I was deceived, then tell me what they came from? You haven't been to Dongqing, and you need to know more about them. The custom objects over there are not bad, so come and see if this thing is a treasure?"
Wu Liba was so choked by his wife that he was speechless, and his brown-black face was tangled together.
After a long time, he said embarrassingly, "It looks like porcelain..."
Nowadays, the technology of firing porcelain is already available, but the fired porcelain is mostly inferior, with crisscrossing cracks on the surface, and the appearance is not very good. Therefore, most of the people in the Central Plains still use pottery products. As for porcelain, Wu Liba's study collected a set, and he played with it often. Porcelain was considered a luxury in the Central Plains.
The shopkeeper curled his lips and said in a warm voice, "Porcelains are mostly blue or gray, of poor quality, and fired from ordinary mud. Although the small ones don't know what kind of objects these glazed colored vessels are made of, but It is clear and bright, with a crisp texture, unlike anything in the world, how can it be compared to a mere porcelain?"
Wu Liba heard it, but couldn't say why.
He is quite familiar with things in the Central Plains, and he has indeed never seen anything of this material.
The mud on the ground is mostly gray, black, yellow, and brown, and it is impossible to make it transparent.
Seeing that he couldn't say anything, Mrs. Wulipa said angrily, "Hmph, you don't need your money, why are you so distressed."
Wu Liba became more and more embarrassed, but he didn't dare to raise a bar with his wife, so as not to let outsiders see the joke.
Seeing the shopkeeper's eyebrows lowered, he was even more angry.
Northern Xinjiang is so vain and extravagant, it is impossible to get around this Jubaozhai. Even if other similar stores are popping up like bamboo shoots after the rain, Jubaozhai still sits firmly on the fishing platform. He was so angry that he said, "It's you villains who made the luxury atmosphere prevail in the northern Xinjiang!"
The shopkeeper said with kindness, "General's words are wrong. Life is short, and the family has ten thousand taels of silver and money, and can enjoy the delicacies of mountains and seas, why should you eat bran and swallow vegetables? Your madam is very noble, and her clothes and daily expenses should also be in line with her. identity. Otherwise, what is the difference between this and Jinyi Night Walk?"
The shopkeeper's words can also be translated into-
If you don't have the money to buy it for your wife, your wife will buy it yourself, why are you beeping!
Wu Liba's face can no longer be seen.
