Chapter 131: The gold jewelry shopkeeper, Jinran's mind
After all, from Jinran's point of view, his brother-in-law's body is really not good. Her brother-in-law is the prince of Liguo, and he can barely be regarded as personable. But her brother-in-law grew up in the hands of a woman, and was raised by the Duchess of Liguo to grow up in a deep house. Jin Ran and Fang Tianji have been intersecting for a long time, and they actually have some disdain for the weak men who are popular in the Chinese Dynasty today.
"Miss, the shopkeeper of the gold shop is here." Early in the morning, Li Ying walked in to speak. Jin Ran was still eating breakfast, she gently picked up a Ruyi three-color coarse grain flower roll and looked at Li Ying in surprise: "En? Why did the owner of this gold shop come so early? I didn't even finish breakfast and he came? ”
Li Ying smiled and gave Jinran a chopsticks of red oil dishes, and she gently put the red oil tender bamboo shoots into the Jinran bowl: "Miss, you are not in a hurry, this shopkeeper is also here because he wants to help the two young ladies in our house make some jewelry or something, and the two young ladies will also bring some congratulatory gifts to Miss Jinxiu at that time." ”
Only then did Jin Ran understand that the shopkeeper regarded himself as a bypass. Also, after all, even though Jinran has made a lot of moves in recent days, she can still be said to be an ordinary boudoir girl, how could the shopkeeper think that she wants to buy something valuable for no reason? After all, he also wants to make money, so naturally he is close to the two young ladies who have money.
Jin Ran understood this truth, and naturally there was no other feeling in his heart. She slowly picked up a chopstick-tossed sour and spicy courgette and put it in her mouth, crunched and chewed a few bites, she smiled and said, "Then I'm not in a hurry, there are sisters-in-law to entertain the owner of the gold shop, I will have a little more breakfast." ”
Li Ying smiled and gave Jin Ran some pickles from the sauce jar: "These side dishes are all made by us, don't you like to eat these the most, Miss?" ”
Jin Ran smiled and nodded: "I really love these, what I make at home is always more refreshing than what I buy outside." ”
Jin Ran finished his meal slowly. When she arrived at the place where the shopkeeper was resting, her two sisters-in-law had already picked up their things and left. Jin Ran smiled and motioned to the gold shop shopkeeper who stood up to sit down, she raised her hand, and Li Ying next to her immediately poured tea for the gold shop shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper had just told the two ladies that he was already thirsty, but the tea he had poured for him at the beginning had already been drunk by him, and he was embarrassed to ask for another cup.
Jin Ran smiled and said, "This is not our master's family." The little girl at home is ignorant, and I hope you will forgive me. ”
The shopkeeper was also very bold, he wiped his mouth and smiled: "I caused trouble to the young lady, and I became thirsty before I could say much." It's really useless when people come. ”
Jin Ran smiled: "Shopkeeper, you are really joking, aren't all the gold jewelry in Kyoto from your store?" You're a bit too modest. ”
The shopkeeper smiled slightly, he opened the thick booklet he brought in his hand, and handed the booklet to Jinran: "Lord Jinrui, this booklet is all the styles that the store has today, if you have anything you want, as long as it is on this booklet, the store can create it for you within three days." ”
Jin Ran took the booklet, hastily flipped a few pages and put it on the table. Then pick up the teacup and start sipping the tea. She just glanced at it a few times, and neither said good nor bad. This performance was more apprehensive than that of the gold shopkeeper, and he asked cautiously: "Lord Jinrui, are you dissatisfied with the gold jewelry in the small shop?" ”
His gold shop has been open in Kyoto for decades, and over the years, I don't know how many ladies of the noble family have served, and he thinks that he knows the tastes of the ladies of Kyoto, so the style atlas made is also widely involved, and almost all the ladies can find their favorite styles from this atlas. Jinran's performance today made the shopkeeper a little worried.
He smiled and said: "Miss, you can double the back, the back is some of the best styles that have been added by the small shop in recent years, each piece is beautiful and beautiful, I guarantee that you can find one that meets your requirements, if you are not satisfied with some parts of one of them, I can also give you appropriate deletion and trimming." ”
Jin Ran smiled and shook her head, she said in a natural tone, "Where are you talking about this?" Your gold shop is unique in our Chinese Dynasty, and the gold produced by metallurgical craftsmanship is in good condition, and the style is novel and interesting, not to mention the craftsmanship. How could I not be satisfied? But—"
Jin Ran's first half of the words praised the shopkeeper for a long time, and the shopkeeper was very comfortable by what she said, but the "but" followed by made the shopkeeper frown again, and he asked a little worriedly: "Lord Jinrui, but what?" ”
Jin Ran sighed and said: "But the gold jewelry I plan to buy is different from these, I plan to come up with my own style, so that your shop will build it for me, as for the valuation or something, it is also determined by your shop, and the pricing standard of your shop on weekdays generally does not matter." ”
The shopkeeper of this gold shop is a little embarrassed, without him, this is the first time the boss has heard that he wants to personally depict the style of gold jewelry, and the aristocratic ladies he met are at most slightly changed the place where they are not satisfied with the style they present, and there is really no one like Jinran who has done it from the beginning.
The shopkeeper was a little hesitant, on the one hand, he didn't want to offend the Jinrui County Lord, after all, the Jinrui County Lord was standing behind the Sheng family, the Fang family and the royal family, such three families, the head of the gold shop was in the water, so he would not give people face to refuse. On the other hand, although the shopkeeper knew that it was the most rational thing to do to agree to the request of the county lord of Jinrui, he was also worried that Jinran would draw something inexplicable.
When the time comes, his gold shop will make those messy things, and won't his good reputation be ruined?
The shopkeeper of this gold shop thought of the clouds in an instant, and even thought carefully about such an absolutely impossible thing as Jinran killing him and destroying his mouth.
"Shopkeeper? Shopkeeper, gold shopkeeper? "Coincidentally, the shopkeeper of this gold shop is also surnamed Zhang. Jin Ran saw that the shopkeeper was in a daze, and called him several times before the shopkeeper turned around and was tired. "Don't worry, shopkeeper, I'm not doing anything strange with you. If it weren't for the skill of the goldsmith in my hands, I would have done it in my own workshop. "The current meaning is, if I had a choice, I would have done it myself, what else would you do?
Although the meaning of these words was not good, it reassured the shopkeeper of the gold shop, and he said with a smile: "Lord Jinrui, where do you want to go." How could I think you're doing anything weird? I was just thinking about which Master should be assigned to you, so that he could create the object you wanted. ”
Jin Ran smiled, and she didn't pierce the golden shopkeeper: "Jin shopkeeper, can I still be worried about the level of craftsmen in your shop?" This time, the construction period is almost fifteen days, and you can do it for me in fifteen days. It doesn't matter how much money you spend to find a lot of gold and silverware, as long as you can create it in time. ”
Jin Ran said as he motioned to Li Ying to bring a small tray and put it in front of the golden shopkeeper. The gold shopkeeper nervously opened the tray covered with a layer of black cloth - it turned out to be a tray of gold ingots! The gold shopkeeper hurriedly covered these gold ingots with black flannel, he took a deep breath and his face turned red: "Lord Jinrui, the deposit you gave is too much. This silver is enough to buy as many gold ornaments. ”
Jin Ran shook her head mysteriously, she pointed to the pile of edicts pressed under the tray and said with a smile: "The gold shopkeeper, it's really because the gold ornament I want to make is too big, and I use a lot of famous craftsmen over there, where is the thing that comes out of this way not worth so much silver?"
The golden shopkeeper was also curious to find the pile of proclamations, and looked at it carefully, the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became, and finally he didn't even have time to speak, but kept flipping through the pile of gold jewelry drawings that Jinran gave him, and he stroked his beard excitedly and smiled: "Okay! Is this a really good drawing? Lord Jinrui, is the person who drew the pattern still there? Her level is really good. The golden shopkeeper had the idea of persuading this man to work in his own shop.
Jin Ran didn't say a word, the golden shopkeeper didn't know anything when he saw Jin Ran's expression, and he arched his hand to Jin Ran with admiration: "Lord Jinrui, your ingenious minister has to say good, such a delicate thing will definitely be popular in Kyoto when it is made." ”
Jin Ran said with a smile: "It's popular, it's popular, I originally made it for my little nephew, as long as I give him such a set of gold jewelry, I don't care about the rest." As she spoke, she glanced vaguely at the shopkeeper of the gold shop. Hearing the song and knowing the elegant meaning, the shopkeeper of this gold shop knew that Jin Ran had given him the right to sell these gold ornaments she designed, and he hurriedly thanked him and said with a smile: "The lord of Jinrui has given me such a big face, I naturally will not be ignorant, I will not accept you for a penny of this thing you make." ”
Jin Ran smiled bitterly and said, "Ouch, I don't need it, I can still pay for this bit of silver." I'm just worried that when the time comes, this thing will be made a mess by some bad gold shops in Kyoto, and it will lose my face. And when the time comes, it's not certain whether this little thing will sell well or not, and you don't have to think about it so early. ”
Jin Ran shook his head: "Besides, such a gold ornament, from the original gold as a material, as well as so many goldsmiths and other gems, jade, etc., it costs a lot of silver to build a whole set, I can't ask you for such a valuable thing for nothing, otherwise I, the county lord, will be poked in the back." ”
