Chapter 61: The trouble is gone, Jinran buys a shop
After Jin Ran sent someone to inform the embassy of Western Xia, the people of Western Xia came very quickly. Even the Xixia ambassador of Hu Xiana, who was not low, arrived.
Hu Xiana, in particular, began to cry as soon as she entered the door of Kuertila's house, crying as if Kuertila, who was now lying peacefully on the bed, seemed to be about to die soon.
However....... Jinran narrowed his eyes sensitively, this Ku'er Tila must have a lot to do with the Xixia royal family, otherwise this Hu Xiana and the ambassador of Xixia would not have been so nervous, and they didn't even hesitate, looking grateful to Jinran.
Especially that Hu Xiana, probably because Jin Ran saved this Sudden Tila, her original hostile attitude towards Jin Ran was much better, and she didn't even show her face, although she didn't say a few nice words, but at least whispered thank you.
The ambassador of the Western Xia brought a lot of things, and the red agate bracelet produced in the Western Xia alone contained a large box, which gave Jin Ran the illusion that he had saved some great person.
"In any case, Lord Jinrui, I would like to thank you for your generosity." The ambassador of Na Xixia sighed, he stretched out his hand to wipe his tears: "This Ku'er Tila is the milk brother of our great prince, and the relationship with our eldest prince is very good, and now I have been seriously injured for my Xixia, I am really a warrior of my country!" ”
Jin Ran pursed his lips secretly, I believe that you have ghosts, and when this ambassador said this, Jin Ran secretly regretted saving the people of Western Xia.
But her face was still kind, and her smile was particularly bright: "Ambassador, where are you, now that the Hua Dynasty and the Western Xia are in an alliance, it is impossible for me to watch the people of the Western Xia die under the territory of my Hua Dynasty." Moreover, in broad daylight, in the imperial city, there are thieves who are so rampant. ”
As he spoke, Jin Ran glanced worriedly at Hu'er Tila, who was still clumsily comforting Hu Xiana on the couch: "Do you have some clue about the identity of those thieves?" ”
The ambassador's eyes rolled twice before he replied: "Hey, it's a shame to say this, it's just some internal government affairs in Western Xia." Lord Jinrui, don't worry, this matter will definitely not affect you. ”
Jin Ran sensitively felt that the ambassador looked in the direction of the sudden lifting before answering, and she secretly knew it in her heart. He replied with a sincere face: "What are you talking about, how can I worry about whether it will harm me?" Princess Hushana and I hit it off at the banquet, and I am very happy to be able to help her today. ”
Hu Xiana and Na Er Tira also looked strange when they heard Jin Ran's words, especially Hu Xiana, who just responded perfunctorily.
But it was suddenly pulled and pushed Hu Xiana beside her: "Princess Hu Xiana also thanks you in my heart." If you have saved my life this time, you can be regarded as my benefactor. His eyes were pale brown, and he looked at Jin Ran seriously at this time, but there was a little bit of water: "If you need my help in the future, I will definitely repay the favor." ”
was pushed by Hu'er Tila, Hu Xiana reluctantly made a Western Xia salute to Jinran, she crossed her legs and half-bent her knees: "Lord Jinrui, I was ignorant at the banquet before, and I hope the county lord can forgive me." ”
This was the first time that Jin Ran had heard Hu Xiana's apology in so long, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised, and secretly estimated the true identity of this Ku'er Tila.
Xixia and his party came and went quickly, and they hurriedly thanked Jinran and then pulled Hu'er and left.
Jin Ran was also extremely satisfied with the pair of thank you gifts they left behind. She originally wanted to set up a timber shop in Kyoto, but now that Mrs. Sheng is secretly making a hindrance, the prices of shops with good locations are extremely high, how else is Jin Ran anxious? She doesn't have much money in her hand, and if she buys those shops, she will hurt her muscles and bones.
But now that there are these thank-you gifts, Jinran's hands are a lot more relaxed.
Jin Ran remitted the silver he had before and the silver he had now, deleted and reduced, and finally scraped together enough money to buy those shops.
Jin Ran was also worried that her grandfather would instruct someone to come to a temporary price increase, so she simply took the silver to those promising shops. The owner of this shop was also extremely surprised, after all, the price he offered now was not low.
The owner of this shop was originally coerced by the old lady of the Sheng family, so he was so painful that he rejected Jinran's offer and proposed a higher and unrealistic price. And now, the price given by Jinran almost made this boss feel that he was not afraid of the deterrence of the old lady of the Sheng family.
He is an old oilman in Kyoto, and he is generally clear about the current situation of the Sheng family, today Jinran has scraped together enough money, if he still takes Qiao, listening to the words of the old lady Sheng, it is estimated that he will have to offend this Sheng Jinran.
Now the old lady Sheng is not young, but the father of the county lord of Jinrui is not very old, and she herself is not small....... so compared to the two, the owner of this shop also has a number in his heart, he smiled and welcomed Jinran to the inner room to sit down: "Lord Jinrui, you are willing to buy the villain's shop, it really makes the villain shine here." ”
He smiled particularly flatteringly: "Before, my subordinates were ignorant, and you raised such a high price with Miss." When the villain returned, he immediately beat him. ”
Jin Ran didn't smile, and he didn't speak, where did this guy dare to mention such a high price? It was only brought up at the behest of this man. But Jin Ran didn't pierce it, just quietly watched how round this boss was.
She slowly picked up a jade bowl on the table and looked at it carefully, but did not answer, and praised herself: "Yo yo, Boss Zhao, your taste is good, this jade bowl is exceptionally good-looking." ”
Boss Zhao also knew that he had offended the county lord of Jinrui with his inflated price before, and he didn't dare to take Qiao again, so he compared it with a false number: "Lord Jinrui, you also know that the villain and I are a flat-headed common man, you immortals are fighting, isn't it our villain who suffers." You have to believe the villain, I have absolutely nothing bad in mind. This number, Lord Jinrui, I won't charge you so high, but you have to let me get it back, don't you? ”
Jin Ran saw that he even said such a thing, and she was embarrassed to coerce too much, she nodded: "I know your Boss Zhao's thoughts." That's a good number, so let's go with what you said. ”
This less is less than half, can it be bad? Jin Ran also knew that this boss was discounting = taking silver to put on his own line, but he was still very satisfied with being able to buy such a good shop at such a cheap price.
The rest of the shops were easy to solve, some simply traded at a price that was nearly half cheaper, while some still chose Mrs. Sheng's side and rejected Jinran's price.
Jin Ran didn't force it, although she didn't buy all the shops she wanted, but now the situation is much better than she thought. At least she has a few in her hands that she can dispose of.
Jin Ran originally had a lot of shops on hand, and the reason why she was in such a hurry to buy it today was because she entered the palace a few days ago, and heard from Fang Guifei that it might be a draft in Kyoto soon.
Although the emperor is now older and has a lot of harem concubines, the emperor has tossed a new round of draft. Jin Ran was in a cold sweat at the beginning of the draft, but when she thought about it carefully, she was engaged and had been named the county lord in this life, and the draft had nothing to do with her.
As soon as this mood calmed down, Jin Ran began to think about business again. Although I don't need to be drafted, this noble girl in Kyoto still has to be drafted.
This draft is extremely complicated, and even the hairpin jewelry and hairpin ring skirt hat of the nuns to be selected have certain specifications. How to toss infinite patterns under limited rules depends on the craftsmanship of each craftsman.
If it is one of those big families, it is easy to say, they generally have a lot of craftsmen who specialize in serving their own families, even if it is a temporary production, they can also toss out a lot of hairpin skirts that are also novel and beautiful even if they are attached to the regulations.
However, some small families, they are generally the father and brother of the family, the official position is not high, and they have become an official family at first, and the family assets are not very rich, but they still need to be drafted. Such people naturally have little experience in the requirements of the draft.
They don't have a special craftsman embroiderer at home to do it for them, so they can only buy temporarily or go to jewelry shops and ready-to-wear shops to try to choose some that do not exceed the system, but where does the fine come from in such a hurry? And so many draft show girls have flocked to Kyoto, and Kyoto doesn't have so many things for them to choose.
Jin Ran just saw this opportunity, if there is anyone who knows the process and rules of this draft better than her, it must be gone. First, she also went to the draft when she didn't marry Luo Xian in her previous life, and secondly, she was backed by the two big trees in the palace, Concubine Fang and Princess Ming'an, if you want to know some inside information, is it not handy?
It was Jin Ran who started looking for a store in advance. It's not far off from the time of the draft. But when the time comes, it is necessary to make specific robes and jewelry according to the rules again, and there is not much time that Jin Ran can waste.
Today, the shop can be settled, Jin Ran also fell a big stone in his heart, Jin Ran's heart is a small abacus is very good, even if the business is sluggish, she can find the location of these shops, size, etc. are excellent, if you start other businesses, you will never lose money.
The only thing left to worry about is where to find these artisan embroiderers or something.
Jin Ran silently worried about this matter. She even wanted to rush to a shop at random and pick up a few people to dig into the corner.
But she didn't expect this matter to be solved by her third brother.
