Chapter 129: Appraisal of Jewelry
Xiao Chuhan unfolded Huang Aya and read it in person: "There is a female Zhao Yun'er, pure kindness and kindness, who is dedicated to the waterwheel and the community, and is specially named the county lord, given the name Jiayi, and is subordinate to the land and is supported by the county people. ”
He closed Huang Aya, handed it to Yun Yao, and asked, "Are you satisfied with such a reward?" ”
What kind of county lord, Jiayi, and Yun Yao didn't understand much, so they had to humbly ask: "Am I the master of Shunhe County in the future?" Everybody wants to listen to me? ”
"Yes and no." Xiao Chuhan tapped the tip of her nose and said, "The county lord is just a honorific title, and you can't give an administrative order." But you are indeed the most respected person in Shunhe County, and no one can bully you anymore. You can also levy additional taxes and requisition people, all of which are up to you. ”
Tax? Yun Yao hurriedly shook her head and said, "No need, I already have enough money to spend, how can I go to collect taxes from the common people again?" They've had enough of it, so how can I ask them for money again? ”
"Alas, Yun'er, I knew you were a kind-hearted person. The small people of this county are in your hands, and I am truly relieved. Xiao Chuhan sighed, took Yun Yao's hand again, and said affectionately: "I heard that the rice you planted is growing well, and after the autumn harvest, I will use this as an excuse to make you the county lord, and it will be justified to take you into the palace when the time comes." ”
Hearing that the county lord was the county lord after that, Yun Yao immediately clapped her hands and shouted, "Do you want to crown me princess?" That's a good idea! ”
Xiao Chuhan saw that she was really stupid and didn't understand anything, so he had to shake his head and smile bitterly: "The princess can't do it, I have another good seat for you." ”
Yun Yao heard that he still had a good seat, nodded happily, and said, "Thank you, princess!" ”
"You are now the county lord, and you can no longer call yourself a people's daughter." Xiao Chuhan said with a smile.
"And what am I going to call myself?" Yun Yao asked.
"Call it a concubine." Xiao Chuhan snickered, but was immediately interrupted by Yun Yao.
"You want to pit me again, don't you? Concubines? You're the concubine! ”
Xiao Chuhan laughed when she said it, and the palace maids on the side trembled when they heard it. They had never seen the prince laugh like this, and they had never heard anyone dare to talk to the prince like this. Who is this Miss Yun'er? can be so unscrupulous in front of the prince, and the prince spoils her like this.
The two of them laughed enough, and Xiao Chuhan said with a straight face: "Yun'er, after you go back, move to Shunhe County first, and I will order someone to build a mansion for you there." ”
Yun Yao thought about the rice at home, as well as the potatoes, sweet potatoes and many vegetables in the field, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Don't disturb the people, I'll live in the grange, just looking at the crops in the field." I'm here now, and my family has been handed over to Da Niu, so I'm really a little worried. ”
Xiao Chuhan heard her mention the big cow, and his heart was blocked, but he thought that she was also trying to grow high-yield rice for herself, so he let it go. He asked Yun Yao about the growth of the newly planted rice, and Yun Yao looked at it for a few months and understood a little, so he told him one by one.
Hearing what she said, Xiao Chuhan smiled happily, quietly held Yun Yao's hand, and said, "Yun'er, you play in the royal city for a few days before you go back, and I'll take someone to pick you up after the autumn harvest, okay?" ”
Yun Yao didn't know that his so-called reception had another meaning, but when he wanted to take himself back to be a county lord, he nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay, I'll walk around the royal city and go back." I see that the rice in the field is growing very well, and the big cow says that it can harvest at least 800 catties per mu. 100 acres is 80,000 catties of rice, and I will give it to you as seeds when the time comes. ”
Alas, silly Yun'er! Xiao Chuhan rubbed her head dotingly, and shouted Xiaoxi: "Change the clothes of the county lord, this king will go to the previous dynasty to deal with political affairs, and come over for dinner in the evening." ”
You're finally leaving. Yun Yao waved at him happily, and when he left, he hurriedly shouted Xiaoxi: "Take off this skirt for me, don't take this kind of clothes for me next time." Just find me two simple clothes, the simpler the better. ”
Xiaoxi Xiaocui looked at each other, but remembering the prince's affectionate appearance towards her, she knew that this Yun'er girl would be one of the side concubines in the future, and she didn't dare to offend her, so she had to take off her skirt according to her instructions.
Yun Yao took off her clothes and refused to wear them again, only pretending to take a nap, drove the two little palace maids outside, and took out her chain lock to lock the door.
Xiao Chuhan said that he would come for dinner, it was only two o'clock in the afternoon, didn't he still have two or three hours to spare?
She climbed into the big bed and returned to the rental house, and she didn't have time to take care of Xueyin, so she quickly changed into a short skirt and went out. It's already June, and the men and women on the street outside have long been wearing summer clothes, and she is really stuffy when she wears so many layers of clothes in the wilderness.
She took the box containing Jiufeng Baochai, went out to take a taxi and rushed to her clothing store, and after getting in the car, she hurriedly called Tang Peipei.
"Pepe, do you know the local tyrant? I have a very valuable treasure that I want to sell, but this treasure is very valuable, and ordinary local tyrants can't afford it. ”
The driver looked at her dirty outfit from the rearview mirror, shook his head with a smile and just drove and ignored her, but Tang Peipei knew that she was not joking, and asked on the other end of the phone: "What kind of baby is it?" ”
"A silk golden phoenix, pure gold, inlaid with many different gemstones." Yun Yao asked, "How much do you think it can be sold?" Enough to buy a house, right? ”
"I don't know, I don't know much about these things." Tang Peipei didn't see the real thing, she didn't know how luxurious that phoenix hairpin was, she was about to go to class at this time, so she had to say to Yun Yao: "Why don't you go to my brother, he is going to Hong Kong with his friends to participate in an auction next week, and I heard that he is also going to buy jewelry." He knows more about these things than I do, so you should ask him. ”
Are you going to trouble Tang Pei again? Yun Yao hesitated, but for the sake of the house, she had to be cheeky and beg for someone.
Not long after Tang Peipei contacted her brother, Tang Pei called Yun Yao's mobile phone. The two agreed to meet at the company, and Yun Yao immediately asked the driver to change the route and drove to Yongchang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.
This time, no one stopped her, and one of Tang Pei's assistants waited downstairs and took her directly to the 8th floor. Not long after Yun Yao sat in the reception room, Tang Pei hurried over.
He took out a flashlight and a high-powered magnifying glass, and carefully examined the Jiufeng hairpin for a long time before admiring: "What a beautiful workmanship!" ”
"How much is it worth?" Yun Yao hurriedly asked.
"I can't estimate it for the time being." Tang Pei shook his head and said, "That's it, I have a friend who is an expert in this area, if you have time, I can take you to meet her and ask her to help estimate the price." ”
"Okay, let's go quickly." Yun Yao saw that it was still early, and planned to finish the matter at once today. She lives in the palace now, and there are people watching everywhere, so it will be difficult to come out in broad daylight next time.
Tang Pei nodded, made a few phone calls, and soon nodded to Yun Yao and said, "Let's go, it's an appointment." ”
Yun Yao was specially protected this time, of course, mainly to protect the jewelry box she was holding in her arms. Several people left the company in a low-key car and drove to the suburbs.
Out of the city, the car turned around, and Yun Yao no longer knew the road. But she didn't worry, after all, this was Tang Peipei's brother, and he wasn't a bad guy who would kill him for money, so he wouldn't kill her for a phoenix hairpin.
Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of a luxury villa.
The bodyguard went up and rang the doorbell, the door quickly opened, and the car drove straight in. A nanny opened the door, and in the hall on the first floor sat a beautiful woman wearing a long black dress with slanted shoulders. When the beautiful woman saw Tang Pei coming, she stretched out her arms and hugged him, and complained in her mouth: "You are a busy person, you can't remember to come to see your old friend if you have nothing to do, right?" ”
Tang Pei smiled, pointed at Yun Yao and said, "Lucy, let me introduce you, this is my sister's classmate Yun Yao, and the jewelry I asked you to identify is hers." ”
Lucy nodded reservedly at Yun Yao, and said straight to the point: "Take it out and take a look, I'm very busy." ”
Yun Yao hurriedly took out the box and opened it, and put it on the coffee table for her to see.
Lucy also took out a set of tools and looked at it for a long time, and then took a set of instruments in the corner of the wall to analyze it for half a day, and then nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, good thing." ”
She looked at Tang Pei, then at Yun Yao, and said with a sly smile: "I will pay 200,000 yuan for this phoenix hairpin, how about it, whether to sell it or not?" ”
200,000? Didn't your down payment settle all at once? Yun Yao was about to nod, but Tang Pei had already preemptively said, "Lucy, this is my sister's best friend, and it's the same as my own sister, you better stop joking." ”
Lucy giggled, and Yun Yao couldn't help but be disappointed. Isn't 200,000 worth it?
"Okay, you said you were your own person." Lucy laughed and called the babysitter to pour them coffee, and everyone sat down on the couch again, and she began to speak seriously.
"The craftsmanship of this hairpin is very delicate, and it has given me a lot of inspiration for the design. The tops are all high-quality natural gemstones, but unfortunately the cutting process is a little worse, but this has a more simple and thick feeling, and I don't think it needs to be changed. ”
Hearing that she was complimented as soon as she opened her mouth, Yun Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and she asked carefully, "Then how much are you willing to pay?" ”
"Hehe, if you sell it to me, it's only 200,000, but then Tang Pei won't agree." She glanced at Tang Pei with a smile and said, "I'll help you send it to the port city auction, there will be one soon." ”
Yun Yao is so embarrassed. She paid a deposit and promised to pay within a month, but when she waited for the auction, she didn't know when she would get the money.
Before she could think about it, Tang Pei had already made a decision for her.
"Then I'll have to work hard for you." He stood up and held out his hand to Lucy, "I'll treat you to dinner next time." ”
"Don't be polite to me." Lucy nodded with a smile, shook his hand, and waved to Yun Yao again: "Don't worry, the starting price of this phoenix hairpin will not be less than 200,000, and it will definitely not be sold if I am here, so you just wait to collect the money." ”
What else can Yun Yao say? The two of them had already made a decision for her.
