Song Ying'er gently twisted her fingers and said slowly: "Young Master Ling, I don't like the things in this wooden box, but ...... The jade pendant on your waist is quite to my liking. "The starters

Saying this, Ling Xiaoran couldn't help but be stunned, and his face suddenly showed a difficult "color".

Fang Ling smiled secretly, and said straight Song Ying'er loves to play tricks on people, and the jade pendant on Ling Xiaoran's waist is obviously a piece of mutton fat jade.

The northern mountains, especially many of the extremely high mountains, are rich in jade. In general, jade is mined directly from the mountains, which is called mountain material, which is the lowest grade of jade, and the slightly better is the mountain water material, which is mined in the place along the river, and is the middle grade of jade.

The upper grade of jade is the seed material, which is formed by the disintegration of the mountain material and the erosion into the river, which is formed by the long-term collision erosion of the river water after tens of millions of years of erosion, and is more expensive than the ordinary seed material, and can be called the best is the mutton fat jade, which is condensed like white fat, delicate and crystalline, quite rare, and the price in the market is naturally based on gold.

Although the mutton fat jade pendant on Ling Xiaoran's waist is ordinary, with the delicate carving, it can be worth at least five hundred taels of silver, which is not comparable to those agarwood jewelry.

Although Ling Xiaoran wanted to show her generosity, as soon as Song Ying'er opened her mouth to ask for her own jade pendant worth hardware, she was suddenly a little overwhelmed, this is to be given, the woman's hand was not 'touched', so she gave five hundred taels, how can she feel heartache, if you don't give it, I have already boasted about it just now.

He quickly rolled his eyes, coughed and said, "Miss Song is really good-looking, but this jade pendant was given by my mother, so it is really inconvenient to give it away." ”

Song Ying'er admired his complicated expression just now with great interest, and when she saw him lying without changing her face, she felt even more ashamed, and just smiled lightly: "The little girl is just joking, it is enough for Ling Gongzi to have this intention." ”

Ling Xiaoran suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and hid a haha, but no longer mentioned the matter of sending things.

The scenery on both sides of the Wujiang River is infinite, and on the way to the boat, I can see some small boats hidden in the reeds from a distance, according to He Zheng, those are the ships of the water thieves, and there are mountains and rivers in the prefecture, and at the same time, they are also deeply trapped by bandits such as mountain thieves and water thieves, which is also the reason for the rise of local forces, if there is no large number of soldiers and horses stationed, the current situation in the north is probably quite chaotic.

In the early afternoon, the merchant ship successfully arrived at the wharf of Bingzhou City.

Located on the edge of the Wujiang River, it is the capital of the state of Bingzhou, covers an area quite wide, built magnificently, on the city wall tower in front of the wharf, the thick red "color" flagpole flutters in the wind, it is written "and state" two big characters, very majestic.

The group separated in the city, and when they left, Ling Xiaoran still had a crush on Song Ying'er, but He Shuilian was afraid that Ling Xiaoran's soul would be taken away, so she pulled him forward one by one.

As the state capital, Bingzhou is also quite prosperous, and when the city was built in the past, craftsmen ingeniously diverted the water of the tributaries of the Wujiang River to the city, forming an inner river in the city, making the state also quite a bit of the scenery of the southern water town.

Along the way, both sides of the road are lit up, as if they are celebrating some kind of festival, and from the conversations of passers-by, I learned that these days are the Lantern Festival in Bingzhou.

The Lantern Festival is an annual festival in the state, and at this time of year, every household will make lanterns, light candles in them, and put them into the river at night, and the lanterns float along the river, placing them on the people's yearning for the future, so the annual Lantern Festival is quite lively.

The Brocade Silk Village in Bingzhou was opened three years ago, which is relatively early among the many branches. The silk sold in Tianjin Silk Village is all from the high-grade "color" produced in Feng County, and it can be said that it is not inferior to the "color" of the tribute-grade silk in various places.

However, the tribute silk from all over the country was sent directly to the palace and was not allowed to be sold locally. However, because Fengxian was a city of the vassal state, there was no obligation to pay tribute to the Chu Emperor, so it was allowed to be sold to the outside world, so that the tribute-level Fengxian silk was naturally liked by dignitaries and nobles from all over the country.

When Fang Ling came to the silk village, a man from the shop who was an official was taking his wife to choose silk here, and the clerk had already received Meng Zhiyuan's instructions, one of them went around the red flame to the back door stable, and the other took the two to the backyard.

As soon as he sat down in a wing room in the backyard, Meng Zhiyuan hurried over, bowed down, and saw Fang Ling's face a little pale, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Your Highness, are you injured?"

Fang Ling smiled faintly and didn't answer this question, but just asked, "Grandpa, how is their current itinerary?"

Meng Zhiyuan immediately took out a note rolled in a circle, handed it over and said: "This is the flying pigeon biography received this morning, Rong Guogong and his party have already arrived in Fengcheng, and they should be able to reach the fiefdom in another day." ”

Fang Ling took the note and looked at it, then handed it to Song Ying'er and said, "Now you should rest assured, your sister Yan has been safe all the way." ”

Song Ying'er smiled and said, "My Sister Yan, why aren't Your Highness the Duke of Rongguo?"

Fang Ling couldn't help but smile, and said to Meng Zhiyuan: "Since Grandpa and they have a safe journey, this king has nothing to do, he can finally recuperate his injuries here, and then return to the fiefdom when his injuries are healed." ”

Meng Zhiyuan asked, "Then what does Your Highness need to order?"

Fang Ling smiled slightly and said: "This place is not as good as the palace, everything is simple, I only need one room, by the way, here is a list of 'medicine' materials that need to be purchased, and everything that can be bought should be bought before tomorrow." ”

Meng Zhiyuan took the note and looked at it, then stuffed it into his sleeve and said, "The minister will send someone to do it immediately." ”

Fang Ling thought for a while, and then asked Song Ying'er, "If you have anything you need, let Brother Meng help buy it." ”

Song Ying'er couldn't help but smile and said: "The concubine really wants to buy it, but it's all the rouge and water for her daughter's family, I'm afraid that Brother Meng is not very proficient in this business." ”

Meng Zhiyuan also smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, it's okay for the minister to run errands, but the rouge water is really ignorant, if you buy it back, I am afraid that Miss Song will blame you." ”

Speaking of this, he smiled again, "But Miss Song, if you want to buy rouge, it is the season recently, and there is a Mo family shop here in Bingzhou, I heard that there is an ancestral craft, which specializes in making rouge water from various seasonal flowers, and after it is made, it will be applied to the body with a faint floral fragrance, which will not disperse for a long time, and it is quite popular with everyone here." And it's all made in quantities, which is rare and precious. ”

"Really? I'd like it. Song Ying'er couldn't help but say happily.

Fang Ling said thoughtfully: "Brother Meng, do you know who He Zheng is?"

Meng Zhiyuan replied sharply: "The He family is one of the several big families in Bingzhou City, He Zheng is a relatively business-minded among the younger generation, specializing in all kinds of high-grade wood products, he is quite arrogant, and he has a lot of connections in the city." "Fastest update on PC:/

Fang Ling said slowly: "On the way here, I met this person by chance, and I heard that the agarwood products in his hands are also from the hands of the Mo family craftsmen, the Mo family shop you just mentioned is not the same as this Mo family craftsman?"

Meng Zhiyuan bowed his head and said: "Yes, the Mo family is the only one. ”

"Then is this Mo family also a family of the Wang family?" Fang Ling asked. Starting

Meng Zhiyuan shook his head and said: "It's not, there are not many people in the Mo family, but everyone is an outstanding craftsman, whether it is gold and stone products, or wood, rouge and water, in short, the production of various things is very proficient, and the craftsmanship is quite superb, these crafts have been passed down from generation to generation, it is said that they have been for more than three hundred years, and the family rules are very strict, and they have never been passed on." ”

Fang Ling bowed slightly, and said to Song Ying'er: "I'm very interested in this Mo family, let's find a time to go to the Mo family's shop together." ”

Song Ying'er nodded, but suddenly remembered something interesting, and giggled.

The beauty smiled and fell into the city, Meng Zhiyuan was also stunned, and hurriedly turned his head to the side, not daring to look more, and at the same time secretly exclaimed in his heart, Song Ying'er is not only beautiful, but also has a kind of coquettishness in her bones, she can't help but feel numb at a glance, such a woman, only Fang Ling can talk and laugh so easily. If it were someone else, I was afraid that I would have been absent-minded a long time ago.

Fang Ling saw her smiling happily, and couldn't help but be surprised: "What's wrong?"

Song Ying'er smiled before replying: "The concubine remembered that Duan Gongzi was here, I don't know how he is now?"

Hearing her mention Duan Rong, Fang Ling couldn't help laughing, this young master of the Duan family of the Duan family in Bingzhou also wanted to buy Song Ying'er when he was in Blackwood City, and after Fang Ling bought it, he also coerced and lured, and was finally tied up and thrown into the grass on the outskirts of the city, although I don't know what happened now, but for this pampered son, the taste of being bitten by so many wild mosquitoes is probably unforgettable.

After Meng Zhiyuan left, Fang Ling locked the door and entered the Cunding.

Although Fang Ling stuffed the mink back into the Cunding as early as when he left Yizhou City, this was the first time he had entered it after the war.

As soon as he saw Fang Ling, Huo Junyuan smiled and praised: "The second brother is worthy of amazing qualifications, not only killed the impostor immortal of the Qi Realm, but also took the opportunity to break through the realm of Qi Fusion' You can reach the realm of Qi Melting at the age of eight, and this step has already surpassed ordinary immortal disciples." ”

Huo Junyuan himself is a peerless genius of the Moon Sect, and his qualifications are also unique in ten thousand, and it is an honor to be praised by him.

Fang Ling said modestly: "This is all thanks to the little mink, if it weren't for it, even if I had ten lives, I wouldn't be that person's opponent." ”

Huo Junyuan praised his head: "It is really rare for the second brother to be so arrogant and impatient, indeed, although you have relied on the little mink to pass the life and death pass this time, but this is not a victory in your strength, fortunately, you have made a breakthrough in cultivation, as long as you put more effort into pointing arrows and sword qi, your strength will definitely increase greatly!"
