The shopkeeper of the Hidden Treasure Pavilion did not accept his silver ticket, with an apologetic smile on his face, and said kindly: "King Taijun, I'm really sorry." According to the rules of the Hidden Treasure Pavilion, the distinguished customers who are inspecting the goods cannot sell them to other customers if they do not say they don't want to. ”

When Chu Mubai heard this, his frustrated expression was swept away. He glanced at King Taijun proudly, pushed him away from him who was blocking him, and the smile returned to his face: "Brother Tautology, do you hear that?" This is the rule of people's Hidden Treasure Pavilion, you don't want to break other people's rules. Shopkeeper, help me pick a delicate box to wrap up! ”

"Wait a minute! Shopkeeper, don't be so brainless! I'll add another thousand taels of silver, what do you think? After speaking, King Taijun quietly stuffed a silver ticket into the hand of the shopkeeper Lu, turned his back to Chu Xiaowu, and squeezed his eyes at him.

Shopkeeper Lu pushed back the silver ticket that was secretly stuffed into him, and there was still a modest smile on his face: "King Taijun, you will lose your errand like this." ”

"That's it, that's it! Brother Tautology, don't hurt others! The shopkeeper of the Hidden Treasure Pavilion is a good errand, what a pity to lose that stinky silver for you! Chu Mubai didn't expect King Taijun to be so shameless, and he would do everything for the pocket watch. It's too much!

"I can't help it! If you don't buy a pocket watch for your sister-in-law, you will be punished for kneeling on the washboard when you go back......" King Taijun frowned. You can expect that you will have a good day in the next few days, even this Spring Festival.

When Chu Mubai heard this, he bowed to tears of sympathy for him. But sympathy is sympathy, and pocket watches can't let it. He thought for a while, pointed to a delicate small table clock, and said, "Brother Chongyan, you can send that." How delicate that carving is, and it can still be turned, the sister of the Shangguan family will definitely like it. ”

The shopkeeper reminded with a smile: "It's a clock, and I don't usually give that one when I give a gift, which sounds unlucky." ”

Isn't it, send the bell, send the end...... Chu Mubai gave King Taijun a helpless expression.

Seeing that King Taijun was in a very low mood, Shopkeeper Lu thought for a while and said, "Why don't you ...... I'll ask you about the nearest Tongzhou Hidden Treasure Pavilion, where the pocket watch may not have been sold. However, the pocket watches there are carved on bare plates, and there are no other decorations. ”

"Okay, okay! As long as it is a pocket watch, the king of this county wants it. Best...... Being able to send ...... before Chinese New Year's Eve" King Taijun rekindled his hope.

"Don't worry! Tongzhou is only two days away from the capital, and Feishu has passed, so people can send it over quickly, no more than three days at most. It's definitely in time! "The consumption level in the same state is much worse than that in the capital, and the probability of pocket watches not being sold is very high.

"Okay, I'll pick it up myself in two days, remember to put it in a box inlaid with gems, the more expensive it looks, the better!" King Taijun gradually had an idea in his heart - the idea that he would not be criticized when he went back.

Shopkeeper Lu asked the guy to bring a carved box of red and purple rosewood inlaid with red and purple jade, and said, "King of the county, what do you think of this box?" ”

Delicate carving, fine jadeite, inlaid on it, noble but elegant, King Taijun was very satisfied, nodded and said: "Okay, that's it!" Even the pocket watch is calculated, how much silver is in total. ”

Shopkeeper Lu said with a smile: "The box was originally eight hundred and sixty taels of silver, and I will erase the odds for you, a total of twelve thousand eight." ”

King Taijun threw over a handful of silver tickets and said arrogantly: "The rest will be rewarded to you!" I'll come to get it the evening after tomorrow, no matter what method you use, be sure to get me a pocket watch before then. Otherwise, I'll tear down your shop!" ”

Who doesn't know the name of the king of Taijun? When he was a teenager, he was a demon king of the world, doing things thoughtlessly and never thinking about the consequences. He was behind his ass and wiped his ass countless times. It wasn't until after getting married, with the princess of the county in charge, that it was slightly restrained. He said that the demolition of the shop was not a joke.

Of course, the property under the name of the Hidden Soul Hall is not something that anyone can dismantle. An inconspicuous young man may be a top master. This Hidden Treasure Pavilion, described as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, is not an exaggeration at all.

"Is there still such a box? Give me one too! Chu Mubai saw that the box was indeed exquisite, and calculated it carefully in his heart, and it was still within his bearing, so he said.

King Taijun opened his eyes and said angrily: "Chu Xiaowu, are you sure you want to fight against my brother, right?" ”

Chu Mubai was very puzzled and asked, "Why did Brother Tautology say this?" ”

"Don't ask so much, you just change the box!" It was inconvenient for King Taijun to say more, and said in a commanding tone.

Chu Mubai has a bad temperament, eating soft rather than hard: "If you don't give a reason, I still have to be this kind of box, what can you do?" ”

When the shopkeeper Lu saw that the two were about to pinch each other again, he came up and persuaded him: "Two masters, don't fight." This kind of box inlaid with jadeite, the small shop only made one. Mr. Chu, your pocket watch is inlaid with rubies, why don't you pick a ruby makeup box? ”

When the ruby box was taken out, Chu Mubai couldn't find anything wrong with it, so he agreed. Shopkeeper Lu pulled the abacus a few times and said to Chu Mubai: "I will also erase the change for you, a total of six thousand four ......."

"Wait, wait!" King Taijun didn't sound right, he bought pocket watches, and they were all packed in boxes inlaid with gemstones, why was his price twice as high as Chu Xiaowu? Does he look like a bully?

Chu Mubai shook the mutton fat jade token in his hand at him, and smiled proudly: "The Hidden Treasure Pavilion has always been fair and fair, how can it be a big bully?" See? This is a token of the top VIP, and you can enjoy the lowest discount when you buy something in the Hidden Treasure Pavilion! Haven't seen it! , let you see and understand today! ”

"The VIP card of the Hidden Treasure Pavilion can enjoy a ninety-fifty percent discount, which I know. I've never heard of a discount. Shopkeeper Lu, are you sure you're not mistaken? King Taijun couldn't get used to his villainous appearance, so he asked the shopkeeper of the Hidden Treasure Pavilion for confirmation.

The shopkeeper Lu said in his heart: The younger sister is the future master mother of the Hidden Treasure Pavilion, and the son of Chu is the future brother-in-law of our master, can you compare?

He said politely: "King Taijun doesn't know that this seal letter was given to him by our master to save his life. But whoever comes to the door with this seal will lose even a 50% discount. ”

King Taijun thought of Chu Xiaowu's divine doctor sister, and pouted: "This seal letter is not for you, don't you just rely on yourself to have a good sister?" What to be proud of! ”

"You can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour. If you have the ability, you can also pick up such a capable girl back? "I saved more than 6,000 taels of silver all of a sudden, and it made the king of Taijun angry, and Chu Mubai was in a good mood. silently decided to give my little sister a big red envelope during the Chinese New Year!

After the two left, the young man asked the shopkeeper Lu in confusion: "This is the fifth person to buy a pocket watch, and you said that you were going to Tongzhou to transfer it." How much stock is there in the same state? Why is there not as much goods in our capital as there are in a small state? ”

"Understand! Is this called hunger marketing? Rare things are expensive, and the harder they are to buy, the more precious they are. Got it? If you don't understand, learn more! Shopkeeper Lu touched the beard he had just grown up, revealing an old fox-like smile.

The young man also came out of the Hidden Soul Palace, because his talent was not high, he was not suitable for martial arts, so he was released early to practice. He nodded as if he didn't understand, and asked again, "What about ...... Why is the son of the Zhenguo family here, and there is a stock? Is it because of the seal? ”

Shopkeeper Lu knocked on his head and warned: "In the future, the trick will be bright, and the master of the Zhenguo Mansion will come over, don't be lazy." Don't ask why, just do it! ”

The young man thought about it for a while, and finally figured it out: the Zhenguo Mansion has a life-saving grace for the master, that is, the benefactor of the Hidden Soul Palace, and he should be courteous.

When Chu Mubai and King Taijun returned to the mansion, the hot pot was ready, and they just waited for them to come back and start the feast. Shangguan Fei'er made an excuse, waited at the Hanging Flower Gate, and when she saw him, she asked, "How is it?" Did you buy a pocket watch? ”

"Of course I bought it, my Nangong is out of the horse, and there are still things that can't be done?" King Taijun patted his chest and wagged his tail, looking like a loyal dog waiting to be praised.

Shangguan Fei'er stood on tiptoe, patted his head approvingly, and urged: "Where is it, take it out and let me see." ”

"Daughter-in-law, don't worry! New Year's gifts to you, naturally, should be treated with caution. I ordered a beautiful jade box in the Hidden Treasure Pavilion, and specially added more silver, so that I could work overnight, and it could be completed the day after tomorrow. Don't worry, the money is all paid, and that pocket watch can't run! King Taijun hugged his daughter-in-law and rubbed the top of her head with his chin.

Chu Mubai's eyes widened in surprise - and such operations? Learned! He arched his hand in admiration towards the King of Taijun. King Taijun glanced at him and told him to hurry away, don't spoil his business!

Chu Mubai raised his eyebrows, holding the box containing the pocket watch, and strode towards the glass conservatory. Taking advantage of the people coming and going when he was delivering food to the greenhouse, he asked the little maid in the house to quietly call the lord of Anya out.

In the teasing eyes of the sisters, the county lord of Anya came to Chu Mubai's side with a bit of sweetness and shame. Seeing her sweetheart, she glared at him coquettishly and said, "What do you have to say now?" I was teased by Sister Ye'er. ”

"Little sister is getting more and more disagreeable, don't worry, I'll teach her a lesson for you." Chu Mubai looked at Anya stupidly.

The little girl is dressed up today, and the circle of white fox fur Weibo around her neck sets off her pink face more and more delicately like a Zhao pink peony in full bloom in April.

Lord Anya pursed his lips and smiled, "Don't! Otherwise, Xiao Ye'er should say that you have a ...... Forget about the girl! The word daughter-in-law in her mouth passed by very vaguely, but it was very clear in Chu Mubai's ears.

He grinned silly and said, "My dad said that." A manly man, if he can't even take care of his daughter-in-law, what can he do? ”
