Liu'er wanted to go shopping, not to buy anything, she just wanted to see the difference between Jingcheng and Haocheng.
After turning around, Liu'er and Zaozao said, "Sister, I don't think there is any difference between this place and Haocheng? There are basically things here in Haocheng."
Zaozao said with a smile: "There are some in Gaocheng, and there are also some not in Gaocheng. For example, roast duck."
Cui Qianqian smiled and said: "I also heard that the roast duck in Beijing is a must. If you don't eat a roast duck in Beijing, you will definitely regret it."
Liuer is not very interested in what he eats: "What else?"
"The jewelry here is much more exquisite and beautiful than the ones in Pickaxe." Simply put, the things in Jingcheng are more complete than those in Pickaxe.
Liu Er is not interested in these. The jewelry outside, where is the best of the palace.
Yin Zhaofeng was sitting next to the carriage. He heard the conversation of the three and said with a smile: "The bookstores in the capital are very large, and there are many shops for calligraphy, painting and musical instruments. The second princess is interested, you might as well go there to have a look." Jewelry materials and antiques As long as the second princess wants these, you can go to the queen empress and ask for them, and you don't need to go to the store to buy them. Only things that are not in the palace can impress the second princess.
Liuer was a little moved, but still said, "Let's go to the jewelry shop and the silk and satin shop first, and then go to the musical instrument store. Qianqian, do you think this is okay?"
Cui Qianqian shook his head and said, "No, second princess, we just go directly to the musical instrument shop."
Liu Er knew that Cui Qianqian couldn't understand the rhythm, and said with a smile: "Since my eldest sister said that the jewelry here is more delicate than the ones in Gaocheng, let's go and take a look. Even if you don't buy it, it will be an eye-opener." What is she? I haven't seen this kind of jewelry, but it's just an excuse.
"Okay." When going out this time, Cui Qianqian really intends to buy some jewelry for herself.
Entering the jewelry shop, Xiao Eryi looked at the clothes of the three people and immediately led them to the private room.
Xiao Er said while pouring tea, "Please wait a moment, noble, the things will be delivered soon."
The shopkeeper took out all the good things in the shop, including earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, anklets, gold, jade, and gems.
Liu'er caught a jasper bracelet at a glance. This jasper bracelet was glowing with green light, clear and round.
There was a slight chill in the hand. Liuer looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "How much is this bracelet?"
When the shopkeeper heard these words, it was a boast: "The girl has a good eye, this is the most authentic emperor green bracelet, and it is the treasure of our town shop."
Zaozao was most impatient to listen to these nonsense, and asked directly: "Don't talk so much nonsense, how much is it?"
The shopkeeper said: "Two thousand taels, no counter-offer."
Cui Qianqian's hand trembled.
Zaozao sneered and said, "Just one bracelet costs two thousand taels, why don't you grab it?"
The shopkeeper is very knowledgeable, and there is nothing unusual about seeing Zaozao women disguised as men: "Girl, this is an authentic emperor green jade, there is no market. If it weren't for the ladies, I wouldn't take it out." Although Zaozao didn't wear any jewelry, but only looking at the brocade material used in the clothes, and carrying so many entourages, this must be a noble person.
"There is a price but no market? You also bluff those who have never seen the world. I have two sets of jade ornaments that are more authentic than this color." Zaozao said two sets, not two.
Liu Er said with a smile: "The shopkeeper, you give me a honest price, and we will buy it."
Cui Qianqian didn't want to buy it at all. With so much money, it would not be enough for her to spend all her savings!
The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and said: "Since several nobles are sincerely buying, then I will take a cost price of 1,800 taels."
Zao Zao is best at bargaining, and immediately said: "One price, three hundred taels. If you want to buy it, if you don't want it, forget it." If it was her, she would not buy two hundred taels of silver.
Not to mention the shopkeeper, even Cui Qianqian was shocked. One thousand eight hundred taels of silver was actually back to three hundred taels, which is too terrible.
Liu'er got used to the ability to bargain dates and dates, and said with a smile: "The shopkeeper, your bracelet is not an emperor green, but a second-class Qingshui. The price is not a star and a half. Three hundred taels of silver. It's expensive to buy this bracelet." If you are in Pickaxe City, you can really buy this bracelet for three hundred taels. But this is the capital city, and the price is naturally different.
Yes, this is an expert.
The shopkeeper looked at the flawless mutton jade bracelet on Liu'er's hand, and then looked at the jujube dressed up by the man. He nodded and said, "Okay, only three hundred taels. I only hope that the honored person will take care of my family more in the future. Business." Not many people can recognize Qingshui and Emperor Green.
This bracelet was sold at a loss of three hundred taels of silver. The little Er who was waiting next to him was anxious: "The shopkeeper..."
Seeing the shopkeeper shook his head at him, Xiao Er swallowed back what he had said.
Cui Qianqian took Liu'er's hand and said, "I didn't bring that much money?"
Without waiting for Zaozao to speak, the shopkeeper said: "Girl, you can tell us the name of the house, and we will send someone to deliver the things to the house." By the way, the account was settled.
Cui Qianqian really liked this bracelet, hesitated and gritted her teeth and said: "Send to the British government." The main reason is that the bargaining price is relatively high. If it is two thousand taels of silver, she will definitely be reluctant to buy it.
Liuer took a pair of jasper orchid inlaid pearl flower hairpins from the chair tray, and asked with a smile: "How much is this pair of flower hairpins?" This flower hairpin was made very delicately.
Hearing that this flower hairpin costs one hundred and eighty taels of silver, the dates are expensive again. After a while of bargaining, he finally cut sixty taels of silver.
After paying the money, the three of them left the jewelry shop contentedly.
The shopkeeper wiped out his sweat and said, "Fortunately, I didn't take out the treasure of the town shop." The bracelet just now was not the treasure of the town shop, just to make the price too high. Later, seeing that the dates were bargaining so badly, he didn't let anyone bring them in. Otherwise, you have to die.
Xiao Er asked incomprehensibly: "The shopkeeper, selling at such a low price is obviously a loss!"
"What do you know? I would rather earn less, or make these two masters happy." Seeing Xiao Er's face full of doubt, the shopkeeper said: "These two masters must be the eldest princess and the second princess." The shopkeeper has long been. I heard that the eldest princess is dressed up like a man, this shouldn't be on.
Xiao Er said: "Don't be afraid, our boss is the uncle of the two princesses."
The shopkeeper's wish could not knock Xiao Er on the head: "Just because our boss is the uncle of the two masters, we make the price."
Walking out of the jewelry shop, Zaozao said happily: "I didn't expect this shopkeeper to be so talkative. I thought it would cost five or six hundred taels for this bracelet!"
Yin Zhaofeng glanced at Zaozao and said, "This shop is the property of Bo Anyang!"
"Ah!" Zaozao was very surprised, and said, "This jewelry shop is actually an uncle's property?"
Yin Zhaofeng chuckles and said, "In addition to the caravan, Dasheng Commercial has 18 shops in the capital. Food, clothing, and play are all involved."
"Is that uncle a rich man?" So many valuable properties cost several million taels.
Yin Zhaofeng shook his head and said: "I heard that Uncle Anyang gave these 18 shops to the empress..."
Before he could finish talking, Zaozao interrupted him and said, "Impossible, my mother won't want my uncle's shop."
Yin Zhaofeng said helplessly: "I haven't finished speaking, what are you doing in such a hurry? Uncle Anyang wanted to give the shop to the empress empress, but the empress did not agree. As for how to deal with the follow-up, I don't know." This impatient When can it be changed!
Giving the shop to Yuxi was also the result of Tie Kui's careful consideration. All of these things he did were business with money, and it would definitely attract people's attention if he took it all by himself. Instead of causing unnecessary trouble, it's better to give it to Yuxi. Anyway, when the money is in Yuxi's hands, it will be used on the right track in the end. But Yuxi didn't ask for it. No matter how much money is needed, he can't seek to seize his uncle's property. Seeing that Tiekui insisted on not wanting these industries, Yun Qing proposed that Tiekui continue to operate the shop, but all the proceeds were used for charity. Not to mention, the annual expenditure of Charity Hall is a small amount.
"Anyway, my mother is definitely not going to want her uncle's shop." Although her mother is frugal, she still acts very principled.
Yin Zhaofeng smiled and said, "This is natural." He deliberately told Zaozao about this, so that Zaozao knew that she was taking advantage of her own house, so there was nothing to be proud of.
After getting on the carriage, Liuer handed the flower hairpin to Qianqian, and said with a smile: "We have known each other for so long and haven't given you anything. This pair of flower hairpins can be regarded as a little bit of our sisters." Liuer wanted to give Cui Qianqian a gift. The fulcrum Cui hairpin, but Cui Qianqian said that it is too expensive for life and death.
"Thank you, princess and princess." Knowing the value of this flower hairpin, Cui Qianqian put it away without pressure.
Afterwards, the three went to the largest bookstore in the capital. Entering inside, there is a woman.
Cui Qianqian was very surprised, and asked, "Isn't it said that the girls from the big families in Beijing are not going out of the door?" These books are very expensive, but they are not affordable for ordinary people. Therefore, the girls who can come here are not. Rich is precious.
Zaozao was also a little surprised, but he glanced at it and said: "These girls, they should be from Gaocheng."
As Zaozao said, the women who came to the bookstore basically came from Gaocheng. Because Ok Hee is in power and she has always intended to improve her daughter's status, she encourages women to study more. For this reason, Hao deliberately set up a women's school. After more than ten years, some results have been achieved. But if you want to realize the wish in your heart, you have a long way to go.
Cui Qianqian has been studying in the Women's School since he was six, and he did not study until he was twelve. It was precisely because she had read so many books and said that she didn't want to marry a military commander and wanted to marry a scholar, Tong did not refuse.
It took more than half an hour and after Zaozao repeatedly urged Liuer to hand over the selected book to Mo Lan.
Zaozao was dizzy with hunger, and said depressed when he saw it, "I told you to come back after lunch, but you wouldn't listen."
Liu Er said with a smile: "I didn't expect the bookstore to enter a batch of new books." After finishing speaking, he said to Cui Qianqian apologetically: "Qianqian, I'm sorry! I kept you waiting for so long."
After choosing the book, the three of them went downstairs. As soon as I walked downstairs, I saw two young men walking in from outside. Among them, the man in a light blue muslin robe is clean and clean. Not to mention jujube, even Liuer couldn't help but look twice. As for Cui Qianqian, she just stared blankly.
Seeing the three of Zaozao, the man wearing the muslin was taken aback for a moment, and then walked straight over.
The man has a graceful posture and walks like a stroll in the courtyard.
Zaozao trembles her eyebrows, hoping that people are just as they are, not here to strike up a conversation, otherwise she is welcome.
Liu'er's expression was normal. If this man is so good, then look at it more, without any other thoughts. It was Cui Qianqian who was so nervous that she froze.
Two steps away from Yin Zhaofeng, the man in commoner stopped and bent down, then raised his head and shouted, "Big cousin, second cousin."
Hearing this, Zaozao asked suspiciously: "You are?" Since he can call her cousin, she must be her own relative. But the problem is, she doesn't know this person!
"My name is Jiang Yizheng, and my cousin and my second cousin may have never seen me." Brother Zheng also took a look at the two of them at the Han's banquet, and did not make direct contact.
Zaozao bloomed with a bright smile: "It turned out to be a cousin of politics, how come I look so familiar!"
After a few words of greeting, Zaozuo is going to eat. Before leaving, he said: "Cousin Yizheng, A Xuan always talks about you, come to my house if you have time!"
Jiang Yizheng smiled and nodded, "Okay." The problem is that you can go to the palace if you want!
His companion is Zhao Jingzheng, who is also an entry-level student of Ling Tongpu. After Zaozao and three people left, Zhao Jingzheng asked Jiang Yizheng: "Junior brother, is this a girl from the Han family?" , So that his heart is fascinated.
Jiang Yizheng shook his head and said, "No." No matter how much, he didn't want to say. Since Zaozao and the others did not reveal their identity, it was inconvenient for him to disclose it.
So it's not the girl of the Han family, Zhao Jingzheng said: "Junior brother, you can just tell me whose girl this is." Others, he can find out by himself.
Jiang Yizheng wasn't stupid either. Seeing Zhao Jingzheng a little anxious, he immediately understood: "My eldest cousin and my second cousin have already made an appointment." Any ideas can't be realized.
"Ah, it's a pity." A gentle lady, a gentleman. But the lady has promised others, so she won't have any chance with him.
Zaozao took Liuer and Cui Qianqian to Deyuelou and ordered six special dishes, including the pig's trotters and roast duck mentioned by Qiyou.
After eating, Cui Qianqian said, "The food here is really delicious, and it's not inferior to Fuyun Restaurant." In Gaocheng, she followed the Tong family to many times back to Fuyun Restaurant.
Zaozuo put down the toothpicks: "It's delicious, but it's not cheap. I have a meal here. My salary for a year is gone. When the Fuyun restaurant opens, we will go there to eat." The food is delicious and there is no money for it.
When Cui Qianqian heard this, he said hurriedly: "Princess, I'll invite this meal."
Before Zaozao could speak, Liuer said, "We invite you out. How can we invite you to treat me? I want you to invite you again next time." Although their sisters are not bad enough for the meal, it is only when they have contact with each other. The way. Otherwise, Qianqian was afraid that she would not dare to come out with them again.
Qianqian smiled upon hearing this, "Okay."
Remember after reading: it is convenient to see next time, or.
