Ren Yuanwai's business is very large, and there are also his shops in Bianliang City.

At this time, the shops were basically opened in front of the store and lived in the back, and the Ren family's fruit store was not small, the courtyard was very large, and Qin Mu and his party were placed in it. The person in charge here is an old shopkeeper of Renfu, also surnamed Ren, who has been working with Ren for decades, just like a family.

As soon as the luggage was placed, Ren Xiaoxiao was about to go shopping.

Bianliang City, the most luxurious place in the world, she is so big and comes here for the first time, she can't waste time in the house in vain.

Qin Mu also has this meaning. Tokyo Bianliang! It is known as the heavenly city by Westerners. Because when the night of the world was still dark and rumbling, Bianliang City was already a city that never sleeped. What is this concept? Leading the world for nearly a thousand years!

The modern city that never sleeps began to emerge until after the Industrial Revolution began, a thousand years later.

Qin Mu and Ren Xiaoxiao are the principals, and when they speak, they naturally obey each other.

Wang Tai is the head of Renfu, and often travels to and from the capital with Renfu cargo ships, and is no stranger to Bianliang. There is a knife for him, and he is in Bianliang, Tokyo, the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, where Kaifeng Mansion is located, and the forbidden army and military officials are arrested countless times, so naturally nothing major will happen.

Renjia Fruit Shop is located on Guanqian Street, which is already very lively.

A street side by side on the east side of Guanqian Street is called Bishui Street, there is a courtyard along the river on the side of the street, the yard is not big, it looks not shabby or rich, just like ordinary people. The yard is full of greens, and the door is half open and half hidden.

There is a person in the house, not tall, with a small nose and small eyes, such a character is thousands of people in Bianliang City, and he can't be found in the pile, but he is not a common man who keeps to himself.

This man was nicknamed Grasshopper, and his real name was not even remembered by himself.

Grasshoppers are short in stature, good at hiding, and have a pair of prominent eyes, so they have a natural ability to peep. As the name suggests, the Grasshopper Man is the one in charge of the gang of thieves in this area.

As soon as Qin Mu and his party got off the boat, they were caught by his thief, and now they are reporting at 1510.

"Boss Suo, this is a flock of fat sheep." The short grasshopper's eyes lit up, and the spittle flew wide.

"Elaborate." Boss Lock sat in the dark corner of the room, unable to see his facial features. A demon mask obscured his face.

"Yes." Short grasshoppers are somewhat uncomfortable. Although he has been working with Boss Lock for three or four years, he is still not used to Boss Suo's voice. It's like a dying patient, who has no breath out but no breath, and it sounds like he is scared, as if he can't change it in one breath, and the person will be gagg.

However, he knew that Boss Lock was by no means a half-dead man, on the contrary, he was more fierce than anyone else. In the past few years, I don't know how many blind fishings have crossed the line, and they have all been beaten back by the lock boss. The four streets, including Guanqian Street and Bishui Street, are now the territory of the lock boss, so people call him the lock four.

Within four streets, the lock boss didn't nod, and none of the brothers were allowed to do anything.

"These fat sheep are strangers." The short grasshopper is a veteran, and knows what is important, and it is easy for outsiders to bully.

"Go on."

"They have treasures on them." Short grasshoppers do not rub sand in their eyes. In addition, Ren Xiaoxiao didn't cover her watch at all, but showed it intentionally or unintentionally, and the short grasshopper couldn't see it.

"What treasure?"

"A pair of boots, a bracelet."

"Boots?" Lock Four sat up slightly straighter. Boots are also treasures? It's kind of ridiculous. He looked at the grasshopper and saw that it was still the same thief, who had not been replaced by anyone, and his face was red from the burn, so he needed an explanation. When are boots called baby's? Is it made of gold to step on the things that are stepped on? Isn't it sinking?

"This group of fat sheep is wearing a new coat, and they have to look at the material dozens of times. They began to look around on the boat, and they saw that they were not from the city. Eighty percent of them are rich people from other places who come to Beijing to play. ”

Lock Four nodded. That's right. It's not that no one in Bianliang City wears new clothes, but the people in the city have long been familiar with everything around them, and they won't look around like a fairyland. It's rare for outsiders to see anything. Nine out of ten people who wear valuable new clothes to see the street scene are rich and noble families who have come to Beijing from other places.

"But the boots under the feet of that young Langjun, I have lived for decades and traveled all over Bianliang City, but I have never seen such a model."

That is, hiking boots thousands of years from now are hellish if you have seen them.

"But the new boots, worth the fuss?" Lock four is a little dissatisfied. I thought it was made of gold, but it turned out that it was just a short grasshopper that I had never seen. No matter how new it is, it's just a pair of boots, which is rare and weird.

"Lock boss, that's not the case." The grasshopper rubbed her hands together, trying desperately to make sense of the difference between the boots. But how to describe it, he doesn't know what the boots are made of in later generations, this thing can only be clearly felt peculiar when he sees it, and it is not clear if he can't see it.

"Then let's not talk about it, let's talk about the bracelet."

"Good. This bracelet is a treasure. The short grasshopper has seen thousands of jewels in his eyes, and when he talks about this, he falls into the palm of his hand: "It's not gold, it's like silver, but it's not silver." ”

Speaking of which, he couldn't go on. Short grasshoppers are wind-probing, not starting. He couldn't get close to Ren Xiaoxiao to take a look, but the skills he had honed for decades made him instinctively feel that this bracelet was not ordinary. It is by no means common on the market, and it can even be said that it has never appeared on the market.

"Is it of brass and iron?" Boss Suo's tone was obviously displeased. Are you kidding me? Boots are also said to be treasures, and bracelets are also said to be treasures. Boots aside, what is the treasure of this bracelet. There are so many gold and silver jewelry stores on the street, which one does not have bracelets. And you say that what is not gold is not silver, and that what is copper and iron is worth saying? Is today's short grasshopper convulsive?

"No, no, no." The short grasshopper hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Boss, you can see it by looking at it, I am considered to be a plant, I have shallow knowledge, and I can't see through, but I dare to gamble with my life, it is definitely a treasure that is not available on the market." ”

Boss Suo's eyes seemed to flash with a bright light.

He knew the eyesight of the short grasshopper, and he said it was a baby, and if this bastard hadn't gone crazy, the treasure that even he couldn't tell the benefits of must be very rare!

Since you're on four streets, let's stay.

Liuli Lane is a holy place in the hearts of women in the Great Song Dynasty. It specializes in rouge gouache, gold and silver jewelry. Ren Xiaoxiao ran here at the first stop.

Sure enough, it didn't disappoint the Seventh Lady. Everything here was a thousand times better than she had imagined. The streets are not wide, but they are full of wealth, whether it is the tall shops on both sides, the bright signboards, or the endless crowds, they all stimulate Ren Xiaoxiao all the time. This is the capital, this is Bianliang.

If it weren't for Ren Xiaoxiao's epoch-making watch in her hand, she suspected that she wouldn't have the confidence to walk in Liuli Alley.

In Hancheng County, she is a human being, and she is an existence that mud legs look up to. But in Liuli Alley, she was a little ashamed of herself. I thought that my shirt was good and topped, and even if I came to Jingshi, I wouldn't be left behind, but I really found my ignorance when I got to the place.

The women in the capital really know how to dress it. Even a ribbon is so compatible with itself, compared to itself is simply a bun.

The Seven Ladies are a character that never returns. Although I feel that my clothes are a little outdated and a little embarrassing, I am not afraid. What are you afraid of, no matter how glamorous and fashionable you are, do you have a watch?

She clenched her small hands into fists, secretly cheering herself up. Then he plunged into the shops without looking back.

Facts do not always change because of personal will. Even if Ren Xiaoxiao has confidence, she can't change others. The shop in Liuli Lane can be said to be the best shop in the capital. The shopkeepers inside also have a high vision. Outsiders like Ren Xiaoxiao, they have seen a lot. Even if he can disguise himself, there will be a trace of contempt between his eyebrows.

Qin Muzhi felt that it was normal. Locals look down on outsiders, and people in Beijing look down on countrymen, and this has been the case for many years. Even after a thousand years, don't people in Shanghai still think that outsiders are fools? Even if this Shanghainese doesn't have rice to cook tomorrow, he won't delay rolling his eyes when he drives a Porsche to the outside.

But Ren Xiaoxiao is young, so she can stand this. She has always been Ren Qiniang with a head and face in Hancheng County, how can she often become a mud leg in the eyes of others.

The small chest flickered, and the little face was red and white. No amount of jewelry can suppress this evil fire.

But she couldn't do it yet. The shop guys are one by one, they are all so low-eyed and pleasing to the eye, and they are thoughtful and meticulous in their service, but Ren Xiaoxiao can always feel the contempt in the other party's heart.

Because on the long counter, the women in the capital are piling up with jewelry, and those who don't know each other can chatter a few words to each other, just facing her, as if they can't see it. There was no one else around her except Qin Mu. Xiao Tao and Wu Xiaomei are maids, waiting next to them, not people.

The feeling of being isolated made Ren Xiaoxiao more and more annoyed. Don't I have any money? Why do you look down on people so much?

Qin Mu understood her feelings, but there was nothing she could do. In many cases, being rich is not necessarily respected. Just like the coal boss in later generations, who is worth more than 100 million, is looked down upon on many occasions.

"Xiaoxiao, you try this hairpin." Qin Mu always had to think of a way for her. If no one cares, I can't speak. As he spoke, he picked up a hairpin from the delicate wooden plate and handed it to Ren Xiaoxiao.

Ren Xiaoxiao took it and looked at it, there was nothing special, it was just a phoenix spreading its wings, and ninety-nine of a hundred hairpins were like this. However, Brother Qin understood his kindness, so he pinched the hairpin and stuck it in her bun.

"Ah, it's beautiful!" Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice came, which seemed to be said to Ren Xiaoxiao.

Ren Xiaoxiao turned her head to look over, and a little lady came over at some point, smiling at herself.

"Sister, this hairpin is so beautiful." The little lady seemed to be staring at the hairpin on Ren Xiaoxiao's head, but in fact, her attention was all on Ren Xiaoxiao's left hand holding the hairpin.

"This?" Ren Xiaoxiao took off the hairpin and looked left and right, it was also a very ordinary color.

"Yes, I don't know what to call the little lady?" The woman came closer and asked affectionate questions.

"Ren Xiaoxiao, you can call me Ren Qiniang. What is my sister called? It's easy for a woman in the capital to talk to her, and Ren Xiaoxiao suddenly has a great feeling. I finally got to know someone in the capital.

"The slave Jia Hongxian, how old is the infatuated Qi Niang, if Xiaoxiao doesn't dislike it, let's call it Sister Slave Hongxian."

Jia Hongxian is tall, slightly taller than most women in this era. But her facial features are exquisite, and her skin is especially fair, like milk, so that Jia Hongxian is not awkward at all, but has a unique style.

"Sister Red Line, do you like this hairpin? I'll give it to you. Ren Xiaoxiao said and reached out and handed the hairpin over.

This hairpin is average, and I don't like it, so I just send a favor, and it doesn't cost money anyway.

"But I took it." Jia Hongxian didn't take the hairpin, just stared at the hairpin carefully: "Actually, that's the way it is." The hairpin is not a slave family to buy, it is a good sister of the slave family who has taken a fancy to this style, and after comparing a few, it is cheaper for this one, so I made an appointment to come here today. It's just that you look at this day, it's this hour, and she hasn't come yet, so I think something is shackled. It just so happened that my sister took this hairpin, and the slave was anxious for a while......"

It turned out that this hairpin was taken in by Jia Honghong's sisters. No wonder she came over to talk.

But it's good to talk. Ren Xiaoxiao was dozing and met a pillow, as long as there was a reason, she could naturally talk hotly.

"Is this hour," Ren Xiaoxiao pretended to raise her wrist casually, looked at the watch in her hand, and said in a casual tone: "It's not five o'clock, it's really late." ”

Jia Hongxian was taken aback. What kind of friends look at hairpins are fake, she is actually called Gardenia, but she is a female thief sent by Lock Sijo to find out.

The baby that the short grasshopper said is so rare, how can you not care about the four locks. The boots are put aside first, and the bracelet must be figured out. Only women can easily approach women, and this work falls on the gardenia's head.

Gardenia's surprise is not a disguise. She had just looked at the hairpin to see the Patek Philippe on Ren Xiaoxiao's wrist clearly. However, this thing is really an epoch-making product, and she really doesn't understand what kind of treasure this is. But it's definitely a baby, it's still a great baby, she's pretty sure of that.

Now Ren Xiaoxiao glanced at the baby, and reported the hour, and it was so accurate to tell the time, thinking that this baby was used for timing.

Such a small and delicate thing, such a beautiful and uncommon thing, can even keep time, what a big treasure.

Gardenia deliberately turned her head to look outside, seemingly estimating the hour: "Really?" Hasn't it been five moments? But the slave looked at the sky, and it was only for a moment. ”

"Haha, sister, you're so wrong." Ren Xiaoxiao laughed, and finally raised her eyebrows. I have been looked down upon by you city people like this, and now it is time for you to see and see, and I, a foreigner, am the owner of a treasure.

She leaned out, her wrist almost touched Jia Hongxian's nose, and said proudly: "Sister, you don't know what this is, right?" This is a watch, which is used exclusively for timekeeping. Look at this long needle, this short needle, to this position, isn't it just five moments. ”

Gardenia was really stunned.

She had just been looking at the watch. But Ren Xiaoxiao's hand kept moving, and she had no concept of the watch, how could she know that the hands in the dial were still moving. Now in front of me, I saw three delicate needles of different lengths, one of which was unhurried but unconventionally circled.

Baby! It's really a baby.

Jia Hongxian struggled to resist the urge to snatch it over, and reluctantly let herself calm down and said, "Sister, is this called a watch?" The slave has never seen it, can you show it to the slave? ”

"What's not to do? Take it and see it. Ren Xiaoxiao's mentality of showing off her wealth was fully satisfied. What could be more reassuring than a group of city women who look down on them and bow their heads to beg for themselves?

Without hesitation, she took off Patek Philippe and handed it to Jia Hongxian.
