The first floor of the Treasure Pavilion is divided into an outer hall and an inner hall. Visitors can freely choose to choose from the outer hall, or go to the inner hall to sit in a small room, and the maid will serve various ornaments to choose.

An Ruyi walked all the way, and felt that the outer hall looked quite large, with several transparent glass counters placed inside, and all kinds of exquisite jewelry were placed in a classified manner, so that people could see it clearly at a glance.

The many pieces of jewelry are placed together, which makes people feel very dazzled when they look at them. It's true: the golden light often makes the hall colorful; The silver gas permanent storage room has spring.

I have to say that the reason why the Treasure Pavilion can become the best jewelry shop in everyone's minds is that these large pieces of glass with high transparency are also one of the heroes.

Not to mention anything else, the price of these glasses alone is not affordable by ordinary rich and noble families. The jewelry shop that is a little smaller outside may not be as valuable as these pieces of glass in total.

The inner hall is about the same size as the outer hall, with a circular display table in the middle of the inside, and the doors and windows of the twelve small rooms all face the display table. Whenever there is a jewelry auction of "Shu Family", the person who receives the post can sit in the small room and bid.

Of course, this method of "bidding" is not the auction that everyone is familiar with in later generations. Instead, the person on the display first introduces the jewelry to be auctioned on. Then several beautiful maids held the jewelry and displayed it in order. After that, the families who wished to buy the money wrote the amount of the money on a piece of paper, and the maids who guarded the door of each small room brought it to the display table. Finally, the highest bid is announced, and the highest bidder wins. As for who is the highest bidder, it is generally not made public.

The layout of the second floor is similar to that of the inner hall on the first floor, except that there are twenty-four small rooms, each of which is more spacious and more exquisitely furnished. One of the best decorated rooms is reserved for its own owner and is not open to the public. This is not only the case in the Treasure Pavilion in the capital, but also in the Treasure Pavilion everywhere.

It's just that the second floor is not accessible to anyone. Only when the one-time consumption of the Treasure Pavilion reaches 50,000 taels of silver, or the cumulative consumption reaches more than 100,000 taels of silver within six months, the nobles or family members with official status can get a pure gold medal engraved with the words "Treasure Pavilion" given by the Treasure Pavilion......

With this sign, no matter where you enter the Treasure Pavilion, you will be directly led to the small room on the second floor.

Civilians without official status are not eligible for this brand, even if they spend more. In fact, this can't be completely blamed on the Treasure Pavilion for treating them differently, it's really that the dress of civilian women is too restricted. The laws of the imperial court are there, and there are many women of official families who can wear them, but ordinary women are not allowed to wear them.

At this time, there were only a few people who chose jewelry in the outer hall on the first floor, and there were not many people, and they didn't care much when they saw An Ruyi and Liu Yue coming in, until they saw people going directly to the second floor, and someone looked at them curiously.

Sitting in a dedicated room, with the rose mint tea she had ordered and a few delicate plates of tea at hand. After An Ruyi explained his intentions, the little shopkeeper Jin did not dare to slack off, and personally went out to instruct people to prepare "small objects" suitable for gifts that met An Ruyi's needs.

The shopkeeper Jin Da was waiting on the side, he knew that An Ruyi was actually impatient to take care of things, so he used concise language to explain the recent situation of the Treasure Pavilion.

He said it concisely and clearly, which did not cause An Ruyi and Liu Yue to be impatient. On the contrary, it also aroused Liu Yue's interest, and he asked a few questions. The shopkeeper Jin Da did not perfunctory Liu Yue at all because she was young and a girl, but answered very carefully.

Between the questions and answers, the little shopkeeper Jin also led people to come in with several large plates of ornaments. Liu Yue's interest was immediately attracted, and he pulled An Ruyi and began to pick and choose.

An Ruyi glanced at it and was very satisfied. The ornaments sent by the little shopkeeper Jin were all in line with her wishes - they were not too precious and could be taken out. What's even more intimate is that the last maid is holding a plate in her hand not jewelry, but a purse embroidered with the Treasure Pavilion logo in various colors and styles.

This is a purse for jewelry, which is easy to do.

An Ruyi didn't look at the jewelry, but admired the purse with great interest. The purse is well-made and beautifully embroidered, and the satin used is of the highest quality. In addition to the delicate and lively colors suitable for young women, such as goose yellow, aqua green, apricot red, pink, rose red. There are also limestone and eggplant colors that are suitable for men. On the pattern, there are such as more than every year, happy eyebrows, auspicious wishes, bamboo peace these implications auspicious.

An Ruyi finally picked out a kind of apricot red, embroidered with a big fat doll, holding a round purse with a golden carp pattern every year, and filled it with a jade pendant with a ruyi-shaped entwined branch lotus. It means that wealth is riddled with wealth. I also chose a purse with an orchid pattern embroidered with a stone blue shading, which contained a jade pendant with a circular osmanthus pattern, implying that Lan Gui Qi Fang, the meaning of excellent descendants.

In addition to these two purses, An Ruyi also asked the little gold shopkeeper to prepare a lot of plum blossoms, begonias, pen ingots Ruyi and other styles of gold and silver nude, and also packed them one by one.

Liu Yue also picked out a lot of small accessories such as safety buttons and pressed skirts. He also asked the two big girls who went out with him, Lubi and Peach Blossom, to pick two pieces of jewelry for himself and others who didn't come with him. Then the mother and daughter looked at a few new pieces of jewelry from the master in the shop, and left them directly if they were pleasing to the eye.

Everyone was happy for a while.

After picking these, the mother and daughter went downstairs hand in hand, and when they passed by a glass counter, Liu Yue suddenly stopped, and she saw a jade carved lotus hairpin, the color of the jade was not excellent, but mixed with crimson. However, the carving master skillfully used the crimson color to carve the petals, and the carving was exquisite, the carved lotus flowers were lifelike, and there was a drop of crystal clear dew falling on the petals. It's quite suitable for lotus flowers. So Liu Yue stopped and pointed to the silver hairpin, and before she could open her mouth, the guy behind the counter took it out and offered it with both hands.

The peach blossom beside Liu Yue was just about to reach out to pick it up, but unexpectedly, a hand suddenly appeared in the air and directly snatched the hairpin. Peach Blossom suddenly felt lost face and was angry.

She looked over and saw that it was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old maid who had robbed them, and she was holding her up to a brocade-clad girl with a curtain at her side. The girl didn't take it, but looked at the maid's hand and nodded. The maid said to the guy, "That's it, how much silver?" ”

The guy was dumbfounded, "This girl, why don't you look at anything else, this one has already been asked for first." ”

The guy didn't notice for a while that someone robbed the hairpin that his young lady liked halfway, and he was so annoyed in his heart that he couldn't snatch the hairpin back with his own hands.

But the maid took out a silver ticket from her purse and slapped it on the counter, "What do you mean someone asked for it first, did they pay?" It's true that you quickly received the money, and our young lady will take a fancy to this one. ”

"Hey, what's the matter with you? This is obviously the first thing our young lady has taken a fancy to. "Peach blossom apricot eyes widened.
