Chapter 40: It Really Hurts
smiled Yingying said: "The shopkeeper has a good face, and there is no philistine spirit on his body, and he is really an honest businessman." Could it be that this treasure hall was opened by the shopkeeper? ”
The shopkeeper was even more smiling: "Miss is really good at talking, the little one doesn't have such a family background, it's just that the master sees me as honest and hands over the main affairs of the treasure hall to me." ”
Yu Qiao played with a jade pendant on his waist, and said casually: "Is there a better jade pendant here than mine in the shopkeeper's house?" ”
The shopkeeper said, "Miss take it down and let the little one take a closer look." ”
Yu Qiao took it down and handed it into his hands. casual chatter: "The shopkeeper must be a person who knows the goods, but I am afraid that the owner of this treasure hall is also an expert in appreciating ancient times." ”
The shopkeeper said casually: "The master is not good at appreciating antiques, but the little one likes it since he was a child, so he was hired by the master." ”
Yu Qiao said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if the master doesn't understand, just know how to use people." I don't know your master's surname? But this famous family in the capital? ”
The shopkeeper was astute, raised his head to look at her, and replied: "Miss, this piece of jade is indeed the best in jade, and there are only four or five jade treasures like Miss, if Miss is in need, I will use it for Miss to choose." ”
Isn't the old paper here to buy things......
However, you have to buy all the meat and become the lord here. If you don't buy something, you won't have to suffer from white eyes in the future?
Can't the master behind this treasure hall be revealed?
Don't dig out the old paper with your surname......
The shopkeeper carefully brought in a few boxes and opened them one by one to show Yu Qiao.
The introduction said: "Don't hide it, Miss, this is all sold to people who know the goods." Now this kind of ancient jade is not easy to collect, there used to be a total of ten, and the prince and princess in the palace got five pieces, and these five pieces remained. ”
He used the word "de", but he was afraid that it was "send......
The person who can send things to the prince and princess is afraid that the master of this treasure hall is an official eunuch.
However, the Tang Dynasty had a rule that once officials and their children were in business, they could not be admitted to the imperial examination.
This does not rule out that they do not have to come forward to do business themselves, and let domestic servants or concubines who do not think about fame and fame come forward on their behalf.
The ancient jade on his body was also given by his grandmother, and it was a thing of the royal family of the previous dynasty, and it would not easily fall into the people.
There are ten of them in the Treasure Hall, but I am afraid that there are many other rare things. Thinking about it this way, there must be a good channel behind it, which can collect rare antiques from all over the country.
Yu Qiao picked one and said, "The shopkeeper's offer." ”
The shopkeeper laughed so much that the fat on his face was about to fall: "Miss is a person who knows the goods, and she must know that this jade is rare and rare, except for these rare things in the palace, there are very few people." ”
"The little one looks at the atmosphere of the young lady, and hopes that the young lady can become a frequent visitor to the treasure hall, but instead of making a profit from it, he sells it to the young lady at the purchase price, just as he has helped the young lady once."
"Don't hide it from Miss, this jade is purchased for one hundred taels of silver, and Miss can buy it at the cost price of one hundred taels."
These words are not leaky, and they are indeed true.
This jade was preserved from the Warring States Period, and its value was not cheap.
However, the old paper didn't bring too much money to dig when he went out......
In this era, there are no bank cards, no Alipay, no mobile phone WeChat payment, and no bank tickets......
I muttered in my heart: backward! But there was no shock on the face.
Yu Qiao said: "The price is right, and the shopkeeper is sincere." ”
He shouted, "Cui'er, come in." ”
Cui'er came in, knowing that the situation was not good, and pressed her hand on her money bag.
Whoever goes out shopping in Pingsuri, who will bring so much silver, only the lady is so wide.
Yu Qiao said: "Take one hundred taels to the shopkeeper." ”
Cui'er almost exclaimed in surprise, but was stunned by Yu Qiao's eyes.
One hundred taels, it's really painful......
Coming out of the treasure hall, Cui'er sighed all the way.
One hundred taels of silver, how many beautiful things to buy, how many delicious things to eat, and how many fun things to buy.
So the copper coin is a big piece of jade, what is the gold value?
If the young lady continues like this, she will become poor......
The young lady has become poor, how can she still enjoy happiness......
Yu Qiao smiled and asked, "How much money is left...... How many silver taels? ”
Cui'er turned the money bag upside down, pouted, and said, "It's gone." ”
Are you too embarrassed to ask......
Yu Qiao stretched his neck: "That's gone, didn't I ask you to bring more?" ”
Is it less than a hundred taels to go shopping......
Yu Qiao was not interested. Money is really good, and you can't talk hard without money.
"How much do you and Watson get paid each month?"
Cui'er said weakly: "I am Miss's close girl, and I have eight hundred yuan a month, and Watson used to be a coachman, and it was only five hundred yuan." ”
Isn't it equivalent to more than 2,000 yuan in the 20th century......
Yu Qiao was very arrogant: "If it's less, I'll give you a salary increase when I turn around...... Processing money, at least one or two per person. ”
Cui'er was so excited that she almost cried.
Yu Qiao said: "Didn't my mother leave a rich dowry? I don't ask you for your wages, I'll give it to you myself. You will take the wages of the house, and I will reward you privately for one tael of silver every month. ”
Cui'er helped her pat the non-existent ash on her skirt, and said with a crying voice: "Miss is the best, I will always follow Miss." ”
It's no fun to wander around anymore, and you can't talk hard about having no money in your pocket......
The four of them walked away in a gray manner, and Biyu Qiao saw the plaque of Dicui Pavilion.
How can you not go in and see the strange......
The doorman stopped them and asked, "The girl is here to learn art?" Where's the gentleman's shop? Is there a token for Mr.? ”
Rub, do you want to be so harsh......
The doorman was polite, and his face was gentle and elegant: "Dicui Pavilion is not casual to receive outsiders, and I hope the girl will forgive me." ”
It seems that if Lao Paper wants to do whatever he wants in this Chang'an City, he needs to make more contacts......
She said, "I am a student of Mr. Lan. ”
The doorman said: "The gentleman here will give his friends and disciples a special exclusive token, and only with the token can you enter the Dicui Pavilion." ”
Yu Qiao was ashamed: "I forgot to bring the token today." ”
The doorman bent down and saluted: "Please turn around and take the token and come again." ”
Damn, oil and salt don't go in......
I could only turn around weakly, and it happened that a man turned over and dismounted.
Fate digging ......
Dressed in blue clothes, elegant and handsome. The eyes are so thick that they can't be dissolved, and the corners of their lips are like a thin and cool March, warm and cold at first.
The other party also looked at her, hesitated for a moment, and then looked away. The moment I moved away, I was full of disgust.
Excuse me, what do you mean by the disgusted expression on the old paper......
When the doorman saw him, he saluted and said respectfully: "Gongzi Qin is here, Mr. Hong has been waiting for a long time, Gongzi, please come in." ”
Yu Qiao stepped forward in a few big strides and stopped directly at the door: "I'm surprised, doesn't Dicui Pavilion need Mr.'s token to enter?" What about this childe's token? ”
