The news of the flowing water palace banquet spread far and wide, and the emperor's intention to marry King An and King Zhao at the palace banquet set off huge waves among the nobles of Beijing and Zhou.

The first emperor had nine sons, and his appearance and talent were all dragons and phoenixes among people, so after the fall of heaven two years ago, many people regretted such a result, if the five highnesses who passed away were not born in the present, they would all be emperors of a dynasty that was extremely prosperous.

However, the heavenly family is ruthless, and it is the norm to become a king and lose a villain. Now the rest, in addition to Emperor Zhou Tianlei, King Ping's concubine Zhou Tianhe died early, and now he and his step-concubine Huang Haichao are also in love, plus King Ping is devoted to political affairs, and has no intention of accepting a side concubine for the time being, so King Zhou Tianmu and King Zhao Zhou Tianyi, who have not yet been married, have naturally become a good match in the hearts of each family.

As soon as the nobles went crazy, the jewelry shops in Beijing and Zhou were blooming everywhere, no, the shops under the Qin family had just finished the accounts for a few days, and the shopkeepers hurriedly ran to the Qin Mansion, and several jewelry were sold close to being out of stock.

In fact, the news of the palace banquet, Qin Song didn't know how long it was later than Zhou Tianyi, and there was a relationship between the Wang family, how could Wang Huangzhi give her a breath.

Even if he didn't tell her, it would be easy to inquire a little through the Qin family's news network, after all, the emperor didn't intend to hide it in the first place.

Therefore, Qin Song has let the workshop operate for a few more hours every day, striving for a few more sets of high-quality products, but she underestimated the charm of King An and King Zhao, these girls are really like crazy these days.

"Miss, I think it's better to let the shopkeepers raise the price of high-grade jewelry a little, our workshop can't produce a few pieces of these things in a month, and the overnight rush will definitely affect the quality of the finished product."

"Miss, why don't we send a batch of jewelry from Weilong?"

"No, go to Weilong and then draw jewelry from Weilong, let alone ten days, it's too late."

"Isn't there a stock in the workshop, why didn't you see them come out with some jewelry in stock?" …… A few maids, you say a word, so that Qin Song, who is lying on the couch at the moment with his eyes closed, swells, in the final analysis, now I just listen to a few shopkeepers talk about the situation of the shop, how popular it is She has not seen it with her own eyes, and the reason why she can't make up her mind for a while is mainly because of her doubts about the shopkeepers' words.

After thinking about it, Qin Song Huoran got up and said, "Let's go, let's go to the Quexi Water Pavilion and the Hairpin Pavilion." Before he could step outside the house, Qin Song turned back again,

"Moonset, go get a set of lighter clothes, Yuesheng, help me redress." Yesterday, I received the golden hairpin brought by my brother Qin Feng from Huaiyang, Qin Song looked at the exquisiteness and took it out today and used it directly, the gold ware was graceful and luxurious, her dress with the hairpin today was a little brighter, and it was difficult not to be looked at a few more times.

After living in Jingzhou for so many years, she understands how troublesome the ladies of the family are, therefore, her outfit must be low-key!

"Yes, miss." Yuesheng and Yueluo were clear, and they immediately turned around and got busy. -Quexi Water Pavilion and Hairpin Pavilion open opposite the door, located in the most prosperous area of Beijing and Zhou.

These two shops also have some origins, among all the jewelry, Qin Song prefers hairpins, especially the long hairpins that stand out, and the hairpin pavilion is Qin Song's single-handedly purchased, and it is her first pot of gold in Beijing and Zhou.

Quexi Water Pavilion was originally called Jinyu Xiaozhu, which is a time-honored brand in Beijing and Zhou, and is favored by everyone's small households. The hairpins in the hairpin pavilion are all designed by Qin Song himself, which is unique, and sometimes even supervises the work himself to ensure the quality, so as soon as it opened, it robbed the hairpin business of Jinyu Xiaozhu.

The shopkeeper of Jinyu Xiaozhuniu was furious, and wanted to use the reputation of the time-honored brand to suppress the small shop opposite, so that the other party would retreat and move to another place to operate.

During that time, you can often see an old and a young fighting on the street, and the relationship has become better while fighting. Later, the wealthy Lu family forcibly acquired Jinyu Xiaozhu, Qin Song helped, and the old store was under the command of the Qin family.

Since then, Jinyu Xiaozhu has changed its name to Quexi Water Pavilion, which is taken from the story of the meeting of the Seven Cowherd and the Weaver Girl Magpie Bridge in early July, and then no longer operates hairpin hair accessories.

Entering the hairpin pavilion from the back door and then walking to the middle hall, Qin Song heard the noise in the store, and Yue Yuan was about to go out to persuade him, but was stopped by Qin Song,

"Don't be impulsive, let's hear the ins and outs first."

"Qi Yiru, His Royal Highness King Zhao likes gold, so you want to grab this step from me, don't you?" A sharp and imposing female voice sounded.

"Qi Caixin, Sister Yiru arrived at the store earlier than you, can she see this step later than you?" Another shrill female voice overshadowed the previous one, and asked angrily.

"Second sister, I just saw that this step was beautiful and asked the shopkeeper to take it and try it, I really don't know that the second sister has already paid." The female voice who explained softly seemed to be very wronged and helpless,

"What the second sister has already bought, I naturally won't think too much about it."

"You...... Are you saying I'm interested in something you don't want? ”

"I didn't mean that, the second sister misunderstood."

"Hmph, you have been making new clothes and buying new jewelry in the past few days, you must want to charm His Royal Highness King Zhao at the palace banquet, and you don't want to see how old you are, and you still want to marry His Highness!"

"Sister Yiru, don't stop me, a concubine is riding on the head of your concubine, see if I don't tear her cheap mouth today!"

"Y-What do you want to do?"

"What am I doing? How do you usually bully Sister Yiru, I want you to come back today! ”

"Hey, you guys, stop it!" Listening to this movement, there was already chaos outside, Qin Song frowned, and motioned to Yueyuan and Yueping to go out and watch first, don't really let them make a real fuss in the store and drop the goods.

Then he instructed the gold shopkeeper to clean up the atrium into a counter as quickly as possible, and take out all the high-quality jewelry in stock, all of which were priced three times.

The experienced shopkeeper immediately understood Qin Song's intentions, and suddenly smiled, muttering in his mouth,

"Miss is Miss." In the time of tea, the atrium was cleaned up. Qin Song straightened his clothes, and walked to the counter in the front hall with the friendly posture of the steward.

"Three young ladies, this step has been ordered by a son early this morning, but it seems that it is inconvenient for him to take it away at that time." Qin Song carried a helpless face, and followed the memory of Zhou Tianyi's departure from the back of the He family shop that day, and roughly described it

The appearance of "Childe", when the words fell, the store became quiet. Girls, you look at me, I look at you, tacitly.

"This ...... Could it really be that His Royal Highness King Zhao ordered it? ”

"I'm just a small shopkeeper of a jewelry shop, and I don't know the true face of His Royal Highness King Zhao." Qin Song shook his head and did not answer positively,

Before this step could be boxed, it was taken by the ladies again. But the customer had already paid, and the shop had always put its reputation first, and apologized to the ladies. The three people who had the dispute hadn't fully digested Qin Song's words, and no one answered for a while.

Taking advantage of the victory to chase after her, not giving the other party a chance to make things difficult for her, Qin Song continued: "In order to apologize, our store will display all the top products in stock in the middle hall today, and you can choose until you are satisfied." "Just kidding, the stock of the Hairpin Pavilion is high-quality!

Everyone knows that the hairpin hairpin is the best of the boutiques, but the rules of this store are strange, at the beginning of the year, all the top products produced last year will be displayed, and then only three or two of them will be sold every month, if the favorite hairpin is scheduled to be sold in December, then you have to wait for a whole year!

Today, the shopkeeper opened the warehouse, and all the ladies showed fierce eyes, and they were ready to move to the middle hall of the hairpin pavilion.

With room to breathe, Qi Yiru, who was dressed in goose yellow and beautiful, hurriedly pulled the woman with glamorous makeup next to her to leave, and threw a grateful look at Qin Song.

And as soon as Qi Yiru left, Qi Caixin couldn't have a seizure, and after the sensible personal maid smoothed her out, she went to the middle hall to continue the struggle!

The matter was settled, Qin Song took the maids to the back hall quietly to calm down and drink saliva, in fact, she had just imagined a lot of unrelenting attitudes of the ladies of the family, but she didn't expect to move out of King Zhao to suppress them all, Qin Song sighed in his heart that this week Tianyi is really

"Woe to the waters".

"Miss, what should I do with this shaking?" Yueluo held the box and asked, how could King Zhao order such a thing, it was just a means for the young lady to deceive the little girls who were dizzy.

But after telling a lie, you have to tell countless lies to get around, and now this ownerless step is in trouble, what if the daughters who have grown a heart don't see King Zhao come to take it?

"Find an opportunity and let Brother Bright send someone to pick it up." Wang Huangzhi and Zhou Tianyi can be called brothers, so it doesn't matter if they take a step on their behalf, right?

Several maids looked at each other, and they all silently made a note of the eldest prince of the Wang family in their hearts.

"By the way, the three ...... who quarreled in the store"

"Miss, the three guests who quarreled are Qi Yiru, the eldest lady of Qi Xiangfu, Qi Caixin, the second lady, and Su Xiying, the second lady of Su Shangshu's family in the Criminal Department."

"So, it's Qi Yiru and Su Xiying who want to try this step, and Qi Caixin said that she has already bought this step, and then there are those we heard later, right?" Qin Song quickly put a few people into the seats and recalled the whole experience.

"Yes, miss. Qi Yiru and Su Xiying did arrive at the store first, and today was deliberately picked by Qi Caixin. ”

"Isn't this Qi Caixin a young lady? How dare you be so arrogant to Qi Yiru, the young lady? "Yueping can't figure it out, the Gaomen family pays the most attention to the rules, and the low status naturally doesn't dare to take the high status, how did it come to the Qi Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, and the wind direction is not right?

"Hey, it's not because Qi Yiru's mother Ruan is in poor health, now the backyard of Qi Mansion is taken care of by Qi Caixin's mother. As soon as his body is poor, he can't serve his husband, and Qi Xiang loves those concubines more than his wife. ”

"No wonder the concubines have climbed to the top of their heads." …… Qin Song didn't speak, he really underestimated the gossip ability of these girls, and he didn't let them pay attention to the things in other people's backyards, but now he knows it clearly.

The words of several people are more wonderful than listening to a story.

"Qi Xiang is a first-class country, and he can't manage the affairs of the family." Listening to Qi Yiru's experience of being bullied at home, Yueyuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"The moon is full, there is a specialization in the art industry, Qi Xiang may be able to call the wind and rain in the court, but at home, he is probably just a husband full of seven emotions and six desires." Qin Song smiled lightly and commented lightly, and got up after taking a sip of tea,

"Let's go, we've rested enough, let's go to the Quexi Water Pavilion to have a look." Xu heard the rumors, these days, the old shopkeeper Niu personally sat in the Quexi Water Pavilion, even if there was a mess, with his ability, he could turn all the big and small things into small things.

Qin Song and the old shopkeeper Niu had an exchange on the business in the store, and also asked him which is better, to rush the production, transfer the goods and increase the price, and the answer he got was that the three lines were in unison, rushing to make general jewelry, and the top grade was transferred to the surrounding states and cities, and the price of the rarest top grade was increased.

After returning to Qin's mansion, Qin Song listed the goods in several jewelry shops in Beijing and Zhou and the inventory in the nearby state cities in Beijing and Zhou on paper according to the idea of the old shopkeeper Niu.

After being busy outside for most of the day, Qin Song was also tired, lying on the couch and flipping through the design manuscript of his hairpin without page, and soon fell asleep.

At the same time, Zhou Tianyi, who had just sent Su Shicheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, away, was sitting in the study at the moment listening to Guanghan talking about what Qin Song had done in the Haiyuan Pavilion today.

After listening to it, I laughed,

"I like gold, who spread this?" He doesn't have a particular preference for colors, but he is still a little particular about the matching of clothes and accessories, at least he can't go out like a colorful peacock.

The master asked this question very seriously, but Guang Han had no way to answer it, so he could only be silent. There are a lot of groundless rumors in Beijing and Zhou, what is Your Highness really doing this time?

"That's it, it doesn't matter." Zhou Tianyi waved his hand, stopped this question, his shining black eyes turned, and then ordered: "Tomorrow, when you pick a lot of people to go to the Hairpin Pavilion, you will say that you will take the step I ordered." And also...... Don't give money! ”

"Huh?"

"Since I paid for the step, I naturally have to pick it up from someone in my house."

"Master?" Guang Han was helpless now, his close servant hadn't done anything serious in the past few days, he was inquiring about the deeds of the Qin family girl, and those who didn't know thought that His Royal Highness King Zhao was sympathetic to him and gave him a big vacation.

There are so many girls who buy jewelry in the hairpin pavilion are staring at their masters, he swaggers in, and he doesn't ask to gossip about wearing it, and he has to grasp the proportion of what he shouldn't say, and his head hurts when he thinks about it.

"Let's go down."

"Yes." Guang Han's voice was clearly mixed with the emotion of grief and indignation. After Guang Han left, Zhou Tianyi took out two wooden boxes from the drawer, which contained a red jade gold hairpin and a purple jade silver hairpin respectively.

The thick and flamboyant red jade and the deep and mysterious purple jade on the two long hairpins were all jade materials that he obtained by chance at the border, and it took a few days for the craftsmen in the court to rush to make two hairpins.

I was hesitant to give it away before, but now it seems that I don't need to think about it.
