The mink of this era is not much rare, there are farmers who raise mink and fox to sell skins in the countryside, a skin ranges from a few taels to dozens of taels, the main animal is a picky carnivore, and needs to be carefully cared for, the cost of feeding one is not less, so the price of selling is not cheap, but the mink that is appreciated in the palace must be a rare variety, and it is not easy to buy if there is money outside.
Ten mink skins are not enough to make a robe or cape, only small things such as shoulders, hand guards, leg guards, hats, etc., but Jingyang's winter is not too cold, and these things are enough to keep warm.
Longyuan Shengxue is also a good tea that can't be bought outside, the Guan family only got a total of eight taels of Longyuan Shengxue yesterday, the old man Guan got four taels, Guan Zhixing and Guan Zhiyong got two taels alone, but I didn't expect Li Yao to send another pound today, which made the old man Guan very happy.
Agate is still a rare thing with a high value in this era, and the agate that Li Yao took is still a bright and pure red agate, which can definitely be called a fine product, which really flattered Wang Meiying and Gong Mingyue.
Song Liu'er looked at the two strings of agate and blushed a little, she saw that there were only two bracelets in the tray brought up by the Li family, and she was secretly a little anxious in her heart, but she still held back her emotions, looked at Li Yao with a smile and asked, "Yao'er, didn't you say that there are still gifts for me?" ”
Li Yao also looked at Song Liu'er with a smile and said, "Oh, third aunt, I also brought something you like." ”
Song Liu'er looked puzzled, wondering when this little girl would know what she liked, and couldn't help asking, "Yao'er knows what I like?" ”
"Hmm." Li Yao nodded heavily, and continued: "Last time, I saw that the third aunt couldn't put down the brocade material brought by my mother, so I specially picked one for the third aunt and brought it over. ”
As Li Yao spoke, he raised his hand and beckoned a little guy standing at the end holding a brocade to the front.
When Song Liu'er heard that Li Yao brought her a brocade, she didn't like it very much.
After all, the high-quality agate belongs to the treasure, she has to take it out to have face, when she is short of money, even if she goes to the pawnshop, she can't drop too much price, but once the brocade is made into a ready-to-wear garment, the value is folded and folded, and it is not very valuable.
And when Song Liuer first came to the Guan family for a few years, she could also receive two brocades from the Song family every year, but there was no agate jewelry, she heard Li Yao say that she was given a brocade, compared with the two strings of agate, she was naturally extremely disappointed in her heart.
But she heard Li Yao say that she chose it for her, so she thought that maybe the brocade also came out of the palace, and it should be a rare boutique outside.
Although the brocade produced by the Song family is supplied to the royal family and the people, the brocade supplied to the royal family is a fine product, which is woven by the best weavers in the Song family's weaving workshop, and what is sold outside is woven by the ordinary weavers of the Song family, how can the value of the two be compared?
If according to the selling price, the brocade of the Song Cloth Village outside is mostly dozens of taels and one horses, and the treasure of the town store is only worth hundreds of taels, but it can be worth several times when it is sent to the palace, and there are even rare treasures of a thousand gold.
So Song Liu'er showed a rare look again and looked at the brocade in the little guy's hand.
The brocade is purple, although it is exquisite, but the style is inevitably a little ordinary, she will also go to visit the Song cloth village when she has time, although she can't afford it, but the long eyesight is also good, so a look at this brocade is like the ordinary material in the Song cloth village.
Song Liu'er stood up with some reluctance, approached the little guy and carefully looked at the brocade he was holding.
As a result, the more she looked at it, the darker her face became, and finally she looked at Li Yao with an ugly face and asked, "Yao'er, this material was bought in Song's Cloth Village?" ”
