Chapter Seventy-Seven: Property
During this time, Wei Lan followed Li Ming and the two deputy commanders of the forbidden army to run separate businesses, mainly staring at the soldiers and raiding their homes. The discipline of the forbidden army is good, with Li Ming here, there will be no big mistakes, and the greedy is also a small fortune, and the expensive things will still be handed over to the treasury and the palace. It's just that the mixed guys in the Five Cities Terracotta Division are all hungry wolves, and if they are not careful, good things will be divided up by them, that is, they are not responsible for the public. Therefore, Gonggong Deng sent Wei Lan to keep an eye on it and leave some good things for the emperor.
Wei Lan really lived up to his holy hopes and pulled several carts of things into the palace. What is presented today is a rectangular box carved with black lacquer and gold carved with entwined branches, about one foot long, two palms wide and two inches thick. The chic brass lock is a little deformed, and it seems that it was originally locked with a lock, and someone forcibly opened it.
Gao Shenghan glanced at Wei Lan and shook his head with a smile.
Wei Lan didn't feel embarrassed at all. Anyway, he just broke it lightly, and the lock was broken, and he couldn't complain about him.
The box fell into the hand and did not precipitate.
Gao Shenghan smiled slightly, and opened the box without paying much attention.
A piece of pearl light flowed out in an instant, almost missing her old eyes.
Rao is a lot of good things that I have seen in that life, and now I see this box of pearls, almost every one has a diameter of three centimeters, full of grains, round, neatly stacked in the box with goldfish yellow flannel, there are as many as thirty-six! Not only is the size the same, but even the color is the same light ink! Then contact the current nautical fishing jishu, you can imagine how precious these thirty-six beads are!
Gao Shenghan slowly exhaled and raised his eyes to look at Gonggong Deng.
"Father-in-law,"
Gonggong Deng hurriedly took a small step forward and listened attentively.
"In my private vault, there are beads of this color."
Gonggong Deng didn't dare to hide it and told the truth. "There are four such smoke-colored beads, the size of which is inseparable, and they are the private collection of the first queen. One is inlaid on the phoenix crown, one is strung with beaded chains, and one is inlaid with hairpins and one is decorated with beaded flowers. "The implication is that it's a set of ornaments." There are also a dozen or so pearls of this color......"
That is, the colors are inconsistent.
Thinking about it from another angle, the things in the emperor's private treasury are still some of the things that are not as good as those of the courtiers.
Gao Shenghan grinds his teeth secretly.
These rebels and thieves! I don't want to get into it when I have good things, but I enjoy it myself!
"What else." Although she was a little unhappy, her face was not obvious, but she smiled at Wei Lan and encouraged him to report further.
Wei Lan's eyes flashed, he touched it in his arms, and took out a sturdy cloth bag.
The bag is inconspicuous, and the material is the strongest gray linen, like that used by ordinary people.
Wei Lan unwrapped the tightly tied rope at the mouth of the bag, carried the corner of the bottom of the bag, shook it, and rolled out a pile of colorful stones.
The stones were unevenly sized and variously shaped, ranging from the size of a pigeon's egg to the size of a finger.
Gao Shenghan's face was surprised, he grabbed a handful and checked it, and he was a little sure in his heart: this is all kinds of gems! Maybe it's because the craft jishu doesn't meet the requirements.,It's not cut.,Look at the kind of multi-faceted refraction of the light of all kinds of bright shining.。
She also used to play with stones, gambling on stones or something, winning and losing, but it was just leisure to pass the time, not the main business. And that's the rough jade that is playing, like ruby sapphires, emeralds, diamonds of various colors, etc., it is not uncommon in the jewelry you wear, but the rough gemstones are the first contact.
As far as she knows, the cultural exchanges and trade between the East and the West are not developed now, and she does not know how the domestic gem mines are developing, and they are not mentioned in the book, so it can be seen that this is a foreign product.
"Where did it come from?" Gao Shenghan raised his chin slightly, "Pick what you like, and reward you." ”
Wei Lan was a little surprised that this lord was so calm and so easy to speak, he didn't shirk, grabbed a pale yellow stone the size of a thumb and put it in his pocket, and explained: "My subordinates want this, this one broke my knife, I think it is harder than metal, and it will have a great use in the future." ”
Gao Sheng smiled.
Boy, have a vision. That's a diamond.
Then I listened to the other party roughly talk about which ones were copied and what things were obtained, and even the little thing that he had mixed a few words with the deputy commander of the Five Cities Terracotta Division and taught a few little minions with unclean hands and feet by the way did not fall, which made Gao Shenghan happy.
Gonggong Deng listened to Yiguaner.
This kid, let's say he has solid eyes, and he will play some clever tricks when he is born. said that he was treacherous, but he was very straightforward, and he basically couldn't hide his words in front of the emperor. This is a heart hanging on the emperor! It was in vain that the emperor saved his life in the early years. It's a pity that the more such people are, the more they must grasp the proportions of intersection, and they can't let the emperor have any crooked thoughts about him.
It's not that Father-in-law Deng is too careful, it's really Wei Lan's lively and lovely youth and sunshine, Gao Shenghan really likes this child.
The most important reason is that this child is the closest age to her son, and her temper is similar, so it is normal for her to take more care and indulge.
Lin Aike is also very cute, but he is younger, and because of his father's business, he can't raise his head in front of him, and it seems that there are some other reasons. This is also the attitude of most male pets.
Of course, there is one exception.
After Wei Lan finished speaking, after handing over the dedication affairs, and the ingots and treasures were registered in the warehouse, Gao Shenghan rewarded him with a lot of things, but he refused, and only said: "The subordinates even have their lives from the emperor, and the things are temporarily stored here in the emperor, and one day I will marry a daughter-in-law and ask the emperor for it." ”
Gao Shenghan smiled and scolded and asked him to rest for a few days. Then, he ordered someone to summon Shen Yifei.
Shen Yifei naturally knew that Wei Lan had entered the palace, and he also knew what he had done during this time. Therefore, when entering the Qianji Palace, it was not strange to see the rare jewels and jade on the table and on the ground.
"But if you have an eye, pick yourself." Gao Shenghan is very generous to the person next to him, and Shen Yifei has helped him a lot, which deserves to be more haode.
Shen Yifei turned his gaze around, and did not find anything that interested him, there were many treasures in his own private room, but he didn't want to brush off the king's kindness, so as not to let the other party misunderstand that he was tall and not close to vulgar things, so he happily picked the largest and most precious one - a red coral tree with a height of five feet and a width of six or seven feet.
"It's comfortable to look at in the inner room." He explained it.
Gao Shenghan smiled.
"I'm not afraid of crashing and falling when I get up in the middle of the night."
Shen Yifei's heart turned, "Then put it in the hall, so that people can know that this is the emperor's reward." "He doesn't mind putting on a show and making people blush. The more the emperor values him, the more nervous those people should be.
