Chapter Ninety-Nine: Rational Operation

Seeing Qin Huai, who was wearing heavy makeup today, walk in triumphantly, the shopkeeper's face immediately turned from cloudy to sunny.

The businessman's mind was spinning fast, and he guessed the relationship between Qin Huai and Mingyue at once, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him

"I wonder what good things this young lady wants to pawn?"

Qin Huai saw that he was an understanding person, and he didn't want to go around in circles.

"The shopkeeper is polite, my princess's mansion has two high-quality pear blossom wood chairs, which were originally my favorites, but recently a fairy gave me a dream, saying that this chair originated from a hundred-year-old pear blossom tree. Recently, this pear blossom tree has become an immortal, if the descendants are pressed in my princess's mansion for fear of being dragged down, they must find someone who is destined to do it. ”

Qin Huai named his identity in one sentence, and used an excuse to prevaricate without making mistakes.

As soon as he heard that Qin Huai was the princess of the dynasty, the shopkeeper immediately made a big salute and became more respectful.

"I don't know if the princess is coming, it really makes my Wanjin Pavilion shine."

Qin Huai asked the servant who came with him to stack the chairs of pear blossom wood at the door of Wanjin Pavilion, and led the shopkeeper out to inspect them.

The shopkeeper also knew what Qin Huai had encountered recently, but from just now, it seemed that this princess was not really a straw bag, if the princess could be used as a gimmick to attract more royal relatives and business travelers, then wouldn't their Wanjin Pavilion be the first in Tianyu.

He glanced at it hurriedly, and thought about it in his heart, and then discussed it with a smile.

"I think the princess is really a knowledgeable person, and good things can't escape your eyes, so let's do it! These pear wood chairs, I charge double the price. In the future, I will trouble the princess, if there are some rare treasures that our craftsmen and masters can't see the color, we still need you to cut off. But it's easy to say how much you can come forward for. What do you think? ”

The shopkeeper's words are thoughtful. It is enough to convince people that Qin Huai has someone to buy. I also know that what this shopkeeper values is not his own vision, but his own identity, since everyone takes what they need, it is nothing.

Qin Huai is worried that he has no chance to spread his news to his father's ears, and now that the shopkeeper is helping, why not do it?

"Naturally it is good, Princess Ben has always been helpful. said that there was any difficulty, just come to the princess's mansion to report. ”

Seeing that the greetings were almost over, she didn't forget to get back to the point.

"By the way, that girl from Fang Cai, do you often come to your Wanjin Pavilion to pawn things?"

Looking at the appearance of the purple-clothed woman just now, it shouldn't be the first time to pawn things in a pawn shop, if you can know what kind of things she usually pawns, it should be more convenient for Qin Huai to investigate her origin.

"Indeed, I come here about once every seven days, and I pawn some jewelry, but I don't say anything about the way I came over, how can we pawn shops do business, how can we be picky about customers."

The shopkeeper replied without thinking.

"The girl who came to pawn is still in her hand, can you lend me a look?"

"It's natural, princess, please come with me." Since the princess didn't dare to disobey, he hurriedly took Qin Huai to the inner room.

Some of the jewelry that is very obviously from the palace is placed in front of Qin Huai and Mingyue according to the date of the pawn, at first it was just some ordinary and simple earrings, but later it became more and more bold, and began to pawn some agate bracelets jade waist seals.

Judging from the specifications of these things, they are all available to the concubine, and they are basically all the objects of the concubine.

But she is obviously a concubine, and the money in the palace will not be completely broken, and she will not use so much silver except for food and clothing.

Could it be that Concubine Shu is still doing something else?

The mystery spread more and more in Qin Huai's heart, and she felt more and more that she needed to go back to the palace to take a look.

"Shopkeeper, you can make a price for these things."

Since Concubine Shu's feet have been discovered, a pomegranate hairpin can't explain anything, and with so much evidence in front of her, even if Concubine Shu wants to escape, she can't escape.

The shopkeeper was frightened by Qin Huai's words, it was really because Qin Huai had done too many unreasonable things before, and he didn't dare to offend rashly.

"Don't dare, don't dare, if the princess likes to take it all, I hope the princess will take care of our Wanjin Pavilion's business."

Seeing that the shopkeeper was so attentive, of course Qin Huai couldn't just respond, so she asked Mingyue to arrange for someone to bring in the small box outside.

"It's natural, I also brought some other utensils with me, and it was an exchange between me and the shopkeeper."

There are some bone china jade plates here, and the glass jade cups sent by those noble ladies yesterday are all valuable things, and it is a waste to put them in the house anyway, so it is better to use them to do some favors.

As long as she gets acquainted with the shopkeeper, won't everything in her house become cash in the future?

Seeing that Qin Huai was not as domineering as rumored, the shopkeeper's heart was also happy, and he not only facilitated the transaction but also got cheap, so he offered Qin Huai as a bodhisattva.

It's good to say that Qin Huai is coaxed to be happy, and he is comfortable in his heart.

After accepting some silver tickets, Mingyue also put the beads and hairpins that the concubines sent to pawn into the box.

The two of them were in a good mood, and asked the little maid to send the things back to the princess's mansion first, and took Mingyue to take a walk in Xunyang City.

I have to say that Xunyang is much better than Yunzhou, look at the furnishings on the street, as well as the pavilions and pavilions in the city, the feet of the Son of Heaven are exquisite.

Now that he can't go to the Smile Pavilion, Qin Huai naturally wants to inquire about some news from other places.

The downtown is always the favorite place for the three religions and nine streams to gather, and it is also the place where a lot of news can gather.

Coincidentally, the most famous Ming and Qing Restaurant in Xunyang City today recruits cooks.

Invite all the celebrities in Xunyang City to taste a variety of dishes, and select the final winner from Hunan cuisine, Zhejiang cuisine, Shandong cuisine and other cuisines to be qualified for the position of new chef.

Qin Huai is not good at anything else, but he is the best at identifying jewelry and tasting dishes.

Since there is such a good thing waiting for her, she naturally wants to join in the fun.

"Didn't this Ming and Qing Dynasty restaurant do a good job before? Why is it suddenly going to change chefs? ”

"Don't you know that this Ming and Qing Dynasty restaurant has a new owner, and the current boss is Pu Gongzi, a wealthy businessman from the Three Kingdoms."

"Isn't he the illegitimate son of the former Yakushi Valley Lord? Now that he has found it, he has turned into a big businessman who is rich and rivals the country? It's also incredible. ”

"Who would have thought that the former Medicine Master Gu Gu could have such good fortune."

Qin Huai listened to the conversation of the onlookers below, and he also had a bottom in his heart.

The son of the valley lord of the Yakushi Valley? A famous wealthy businessman in the Three Kingdoms?

Why hasn't she heard of this surnamed Pu.

When she ascended the Ming and Qing Dynasty Restaurant, the restaurant was already full of noble disciples, and many of them were the children of high-ranking officials she was familiar with.

She didn't want to stir up trouble, and she was really going to bypass this group of gentlemen, but someone among them recognized her and stopped her first.

She knows this person, he is Li Que's good brother, and he is also a prodigal.

"Yo, isn't this Her Royal Highness the most noble princess in our Tianyu? How can the princess have time to come to this Ming and Qing restaurant to eat and drink? ”

This man's surname is Qu, he is not a good person, just because he has some good land and a few stinky money in his name, he follows Li Que without learning and not knowing.

"I see, her princess exists in name only, in fact, she has long been rejected by His Majesty, she herself has no skin and no face, and she still has to bear the name of this princess."

On the other side, a swarthy man also came out, it seemed to be Qu Zhao's buddy, he saw Qu Zhao humiliating Qin Huai, and he was unwilling to let go of this good opportunity to make a name for himself in Xunyang City.

There were many people in the audience, Qin Huai didn't want to repeat the old way, so he glared at the two of them without saying a word.

"Brother Jia said cautiously, if the princess loses her temper, she really hangs you on the city tower for three days and three nights, and our brothers will not save you."

Then, a few scholars with good deeds walked up behind him, and these people, every word you say to me, is just to ridicule Qin Huai's current embarrassing situation.

This kind of scene was not surprising to Qin Huai in the past, because their verbal attitude was jealousy and resentment in her eyes, hating them for not having such a good life and being born in the royal family.

But now...... Qin Huai only felt disgusted.

"Mingyue, this Ming and Qing Dynasty restaurant is really a must-have in Xunyang, and even the vicious dogs in the market smell the fragrance to join in the fun, which really makes people feel unlucky."

Although she said that, Qin Huai had no intention of leaving, if she threw off her sleeves and left now, it would only fuel the arrogance of these people.

I thought that if she opened a respectful sentence, these people would be ten, but I didn't expect that Qu Zhao guy didn't know what news he got from Li Que, and he was so disrespectful to her.

Qu Zhao laughed suddenly, and his whole face and body twitched, as if the floor was also shaking by him.

"Oh, the princess actually said that we are vicious dogs, and we dare not be compared to you. I don't know who was shouting and beating everyone in Xunyang City back then, if you don't have this power, you are nothing. ”

"You!"

This was the first time Qin Huai had been bullied in front of so many people by the scoundrels who had been scrambling to lift her shoes before.

But if you want to provoke her like this, it's impossible!

"Mingyue, come and sit down, let's taste the food today, don't spoil the good dishes after a few grains of mouse droppings."

"It's the princess."

Qu Zhao was said this, and he was about to come up and entangle, but a shout suddenly sounded downstairs.

"Pu Gongzi has arrived-"

Pu Chenming?

Qin Huai couldn't care about these scum at this moment, and hurriedly grabbed the railing, ready to see what the rich man looked like.

In the distance, a man in a black robe walked slowly, and his clothes were embroidered with gold thread. The black hair was tied high with a crown of golden-encrusted hair, and the bead on the crown was as big as the East China Sea pearl on the crown of his father's dynasty. His golden headband fluttered in the wind, making people unconsciously follow his steps.

Gradually getting closer, I saw that this man's eyebrows were picturesque, and his tall body was the kind of heroic posture that was comparable to Gu Baixiu.

In this world, is there really an immortal like Gu Baixiu? No, no, he looks more like a demon lord who can call the wind and rain between heaven and earth.
