Chapter 41: Dazzled by the Jewel
The county lord of Xici blinked, she looked at He Hailan in surprise, and saw He Hailan with a shallow smile on her face, she felt as if she had been tricked by He Hailan...
He Hailan looked at the appearance of the county lord of Xici and smiled slightly, "There is nothing interesting in the Hou Mansion, it just so happens that I want to go out shopping, I don't know if the county lord is willing to go together?" β
The county lord of Xici subconsciously wanted to refuse, but his body nodded honestly: "Yes..."
How did she say yes?
She's going to shake her head! What a nod!
When thinking about this problem, the two of them had already arrived at the door of the Hou Mansion, and the county lord of Xici looked at his carriage and blinked his eyes, she said that it was too late to go back to the mansion now, right?
"County Lord, how about we walk?" He Hailan looked at the lively streets, and raised her eyebrows at the county lord of Xici.
The county lord of Xici frowned slightly, "I'm afraid it's inconvenient to do this, right?" β
He Hailan looked at the gorgeous clothes on the county lord of Xici, and then looked at the civilian clothes on his body, and smiled, "It's really not convenient, then take the carriage to the nearest tailor's shop." β
The county lord of Xici didn't know why, he actually let He Hailan get into his carriage... Looking at He Hailan sitting beside him, the county lord of Xici was only depressed in his heart...
Why is he always embarrassed by this He Hailan?
"You're going to make new clothes?" The county lord of Xici fiddled with the silver bracelet in his hand and asked casually.
He Hailan nodded, "Well, I have a small amount of money in my hand today, and I plan to spend it all." β
The county lord of Xici raised his eyebrows, "One or two hundred taels of silver want to buy a better silk, but I can't buy it." β
He Hailan shrugged her shoulders, "I just make two casual clothes, and I don't need any silk." β
Her sportswear, now doing yoga or something, wearing that middle clothes, can't be used. Coming out to make a sportswear is the main purpose of her going out today.
The carriage stopped in front of a tailor shop called Tailoring, and the county lord of Xici lifted the curtain to take a look at it, and lowered the curtain, "Go by yourself, I'll wait for you here." β
He Hailan smiled and responded, "Then I'll go and measure the size and come out soon." β
After He Hailan finished speaking, he got out of the car and went directly into the tailor's shop.
About a tea time, He Hailan came out, she saw that the carriage of the county lord of Xici was still parked there, she was quite surprised, she thought that the county lord of Xici would leave directly... I didn't expect to be waiting here.
And the county lord of Xici, who was sitting in the carriage, was even more depressed, who could tell her, why she was so honestly sitting in the carriage waiting for He Hailan to come out? Didn't she just want to leave?
After thinking about it, she couldn't come to a good conclusion, and the county lord of Xici decisively blamed her on her etiquette that she was not allowed to say goodbye.
He Hailan got into the carriage and smiled apologetically at the county lord of Xici, "It took some time to measure the size, and the county lord has been waiting for a long time." β
The county lord of Xici shrugged, "Where to go next?" β
He Hailan blinked, she really didn't know this?
"I wonder if those foreigners have opened shops in our Kyoto City?" He Hailan suddenly raised her eyebrows and looked at the county lord of Xici, there should be a lot of fresh things in those foreigners' shops...
The county lord of Xici frowned, "Foreigner? Do you mean those Westerners? β
He Hailan nodded, "Well, Westerners' shops." β
"Can you understand what they're saying?" The county lord of Xici pursed his lips, "They are all crackling, they can't understand what they hear, and we generally don't go to the shops opened by Westerners themselves to buy things." β
"Then what do you do with Westerners' things?" He Hailan raised her eyebrows slightly, she saw a diorama in her room, it should have been bought in the hands of Westerners.
"There are special dealers selling Westerners' things, why don't I take you to see them?"
He Hailan shook her head, "Let's go to the Westerner's shop." β
Although she used to spend a lot of money, she never bought things in the purchasing agent, why? Hehe, money is expensive, and you don't necessarily get good things.
Therefore, I usually go to the local area or buy it at duty-free shops.
Seeing that He Hailan was so ignorant, the county lord of Xici didn't bother to continue to talk to He Hailan, and asked the coachman to go to the Westerner's shop, while he sat on the sidelines, too lazy to pay attention to He Hailan.
He Hailan looked at the angry appearance of the county lord of Xici, and felt a little funny, she never thought that she would go shopping on the street with this county lord like a girlfriend....
When she arrived at the store, He Hailan jumped out of the car directly, and the county lord of Xici saw that He Hailan went down, and she followed her, she wanted to see what good things He Hailan could buy in the Westerner's store!
He Hailan was dazzled as soon as he entered the store, this is the real gem store! Ruby, sapphire and diamond are all kinds of rough stones, although they are all rough stones that have not been polished, but such pure rough stones are also rare!
Bi'er followed behind He Hailan and looked at the colorful stones, her eyes blinked, she took He Hailan's hand, and said in a low voice, "Miss, what's so beautiful about these, if you want to buy jewelry, go directly to the silver jewelry store or jade store." β
He Hailan glanced at Bi'er, "What do you know." β
How much silver has depreciated in modern times, if you take all these gems back to modern times, any piece of it will be collected in a museum!
Where else can you find this kind of rough stone bigger than a fist now? And the gloss is good, too...
He Hailan only felt that her heart was about to jump out!
What a great place to be in ancient times!!
If she takes all these gems back to modern times, even if she doesn't film, she can buy and buy every day, and eat and wait for death for the rest of her life, right?
He Hailan swallowed his saliva and stared at a diamond in front of him...
What are pigeon eggs? She's a duck egg! Duck eggs!
At this time, a Westerner came over and asked He Hailan in a very non-fluent language, "Excuse me... My dear... Madam, you.. Need... Miscellaneous... Is it? β
He Hailan glanced at the Westerners, "These stones." β
These rubies and diamonds, she thought, must not have been popular at all in ancient times, right? Look at this shop, there are only a few of them now, and there is no one else, and you can tell that business here must be bad.
So, at this time, you can't even show that you like the gems here.
"What... Is it? whatοΌ The Westerner looked at He Hailan, it was so difficult to ask in Chinese, he couldn't help but use his native language.
Probably because she was so excited to see these gems, He Hailan forgot that she was in ancient times, and fluent English flowed out of her mouth, "How do you sell these?" I want to buy these things. β
When He Hailan said this, the Westerners themselves were surprised...
The county lord of Xici was surprised...
Bi'er was surprised...
The maid of the county lord of Xici was also surprised...
He Hailan, who realized it later, was frightened...
What to do?
Exposed!!
"Do you speak Western?" The county lord of Xici squinted at He Hailan.
He Hailan first smirked, then laughed awkwardly, and then couldn't laugh anymore...
"County Lord, I'm afraid you heard it wrong, right? When did I speak Western? β
