Chapter 71: The Treasure Pavilion

In fact, I don't blame An Ruyi for being extravagant, but the shadow in my heart from the previous life is still there.

At that time, Liu Heng had been fighting for many years, and the gold and silver accumulated in his hands were still considerable, and later all of them were handed over to her. She was also stupid, she didn't have any selfishness at that time, she felt that it was her own family anyway, so she put all the money into the public treasury, and didn't leave a trace of private room for herself, so she had the constraints of not caring for her family later.

Of course, later she returned the key to the public treasury to Liu Heng after she didn't care about her home, and Liu Heng was silent for a while to take it, but she didn't give it to the "concubine", but carried it herself. but every month enough money was allocated to the public account.

Most people suddenly become wealthy, and their mentality will change.

Some will spend a lot of money, hating to let the world know that they are rich; Some will go the other way, reluctant to spend money when they have money, and continue to live a hard life with gold and silver; There is also a kind of reluctant to spend money, but the poor mentality is still troubled from time to time, and they will feel that they can't be too extravagant when they have money, and they will spend money to shrink their hands and feet, and feel that every expense is too wasteful.

Just like An Ruyi at that time, her mentality at that time had not completely reversed, and she felt that even girls didn't need too many new clothes, and it was already a lot to make two or three new sets of new clothes every season, and she refused to buy too expensive jewelry.

It is conceivable that Liu Yue, who was secretly ridiculed as a wild girl in the countryside and secretly had low self-esteem, every time she went out to wear a few pieces over and over again, plus the various talents that other daughters would do, she would not not say anything, and she didn't even know a few big characters. Go back to my mother and ask for new clothes and new jewelry, not to mention that there is no result, and I will be blamed for wasting, and I will have a bittersweet memory.

The child who was only ** years old at that time was in such an environment for a long time, coupled with the deliberate misdirection of people with intentions, it is not surprising that he ended up like that.

In the last life, An Ruyi's various evasions in the second half of his life are actually a large part of his hatred and guilt for his carelessness.

Isn't it just a little bit of new clothes and new jewelry, and how much are they worth? is to make more than ten or twenty sets of new clothes for her daughter in one season, and put on seven or eight sets of new jewelry, and it will take less than two thousand taels of silver in a year. Liu Heng's desperate family business was piled up in the warehouse at least more than 500,000 taels.

It is inevitable that people will make a little mistake that will inevitably be reversed. An Ruyi, who is now a cultivator, is the same.

It is okay to say that An Ruyi is overkill, or it is too much. Anyway, she is very single, so what if she is so extravagant now? She's not bad for money, and she doesn't get in the way of others, what's wrong with being extravagant?

You don't need An Ruyi and Liu Yue to go to the jewelry in person, as long as you give an order, the shopkeeper of the Treasure Pavilion will naturally send the best in the store to the Zhenguo Mansion for her to choose.

But where is the fun of having people send things to their homes to pick and choose? Moreover, An Ruyi and Liu Yue, the treasure pavilion of Mumao Villa in the capital, said that they had not seen it in person.

It's too much to say that you haven't been to the door of your own industry.

So An Ruyi and Liu Yue boarded the car and went out with great interest as soon as they finished breakfast.

The location of the Treasure Pavilion is near the east gate of the inner city of the capital, which is the most prosperous and lively place in the entire capital. There are all kinds of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, antique shops, cloth shops, jewelry shops, tea houses, wine shops...... Food, clothing, housing and transportation can be found here to be satisfied.

The Treasure Pavilion is the same as the Zhuangyuan Building, and it has its branches throughout the Zhou Kingdom. The Treasure Pavilion is quite famous in the upper noble circles of the capital. At first, it became famous for its exquisite jewelry, generous weight, and authentic material.

Later, it increased its popularity because of the addition of jewelry designed by "Shu Family". By coincidence, a certain set of jewelry of "Shu Family" flowed into the palace and was eyed by the Queen Mother, after being praised by the Queen Mother, the jewelry of "Shu Family" began to attract more and more attention and love from other concubines, princesses, noblewomen, and daughters in the palace, and then became highly sought after.

To say that the treasurer of the treasure pavilion is also a talent, he was originally just the treasurer of the treasure pavilion in the capital, seeing that the jewelry of the "Shu family" was being praised higher and higher, and there were many people who came to buy it, and they couldn't be offended lightly, and finally simply made a "bidding meeting" that was almost inseparable from the auction, and sent a post to invite people to come to the one with the highest price.

When An Ruyi heard about it afterwards, she still speculated in her heart for a long time, and the big shopkeeper also crossed over, right? Fortunately, it turned out that it was not. In addition to rest assured, An Ruyi can be regarded as convinced, talents are really available in any era, this one is obviously very business-minded. Since it is talent, it cannot be wasted. Therefore, An Ruyi directly promoted him and made him the chief treasurer of all the treasure pavilions in the entire Zhou Kingdom.

There is such a big shopkeeper in the Treasure Pavilion, so it's strange that business is not booming. An Ruyi's attention to him made him much bolder. Under his various planning and publicity, overnight, the legend of "Shu Family" began to circulate in the backyard boudoirs of all parts of the Zhou Kingdom.

The jewelry of "Shu Family" has gradually changed its flavor after being highly sought after, and has become a tool for women in the back house to show off to each other, and has been distorted into a symbol of status. For a time, almost the entire women of the back house of the Zhou Kingdom were proud to have a piece of jewelry of the "Shu family". And if you want to buy jewelry from "Shu Family", you can only go to the Treasure Pavilion. Over time, the Treasure Pavilion eventually became the largest and best jewelry shop in the Zhou Kingdom.

This is not all, the industry of Mumao Villa has been full in the Zhou Kingdom over the years, and with the increasing number of talents cultivated behind it, Liu Huairan began to plan to open several of the most profitable shops to the boundaries of other countries after discussing with his great-grandfather, and the Treasure Pavilion was among them.

When the carriage marked with the mark of the Zhenguo Mansion stopped at the door of the Treasure Pavilion, a sharp-eyed and clever guy saw it and hurriedly reported in, and at that time, Jin Jiabao, the big shopkeeper who was pulled by An Ruyi, was also in the shop and was talking to the shopkeeper Jin Chenghao. Although Jin Jiabao is already in charge of the Treasure Pavilion of the entire Zhou Kingdom, he spends most of the year in the capital, and at least half of the time in the capital he will be in the Treasure Pavilion. Now the treasurer of the Treasure Pavilion in Beijing is his youngest son.

When the father and son heard the news, they didn't think much about it, so they hurried out the door. As he walked, he secretly asked himself: Who could it be? If it was a notice to send the jewelry to the house, shouldn't the steward come in a carriage? It can't be the lady herself, right?

When the two arrived at the door, they happened to see the mother and daughter with the curtain hat, and the two got out of the carriage with the help of the maid. When the shopkeeper saw it, he immediately showed an excited look. Take your little son and hurry up to say hello.

Jin Da shopkeeper has seen An Ruyi, although Jin Xiao shopkeeper has not seen, but he can be in charge of the treasure pavilion in the capital, and the nobles who are sent to him on weekdays do not know how much, eyesight is not lacking, just look at the person's temperament, the clothes and jewelry he wears will never make the mistake of not distinguishing between master and servant. Looking at his father's excitement, he naturally guessed that he had seen his master.

When the master's family comes to Beijing, they will be able to see the shopkeeper sooner or later, but they will still be excited to see the real person.

An Ruyi ignored the excitement of the two and signaled for the two to be exempted. Looking at the gate of the Treasure Pavilion first, the two-storey building in front of me, compared with the various shops on both sides, there is nothing special about the outside.

If it is more eye-catching, it is probably the three plaques of the "Treasure Pavilion" that fall on the large and heavy, rubbed black and shiny small leaf purple nan wood, such as the golden characters flowing through the clouds. This word comes from the hand of Wen Yongen, a famous calligrapher and painter of the current dynasty - the head of the Hanlin Academy.

This word is indeed not bad.

Take Liu Yue and follow the two shopkeepers who led the way to the Treasure Pavilion, An Ruyi thought as she spoke. Listen to the introduction of the big shopkeeper, and observe the surrounding furnishings by the way.
