Chu Lixue looked at Ruan Wenbo's proud appearance, and secretly despised it in her heart, didn't this Ruan Wenbo know that the whole world was not the truth of the king's land? If a valuable mine is found in the country, it is natural to report it to the imperial court, and the imperial court will naturally send someone to take it over.

"Well, the main source of jade is the right way, then Concubine Ben can rest assured, then the mining of jade is still handed over to the Ruan family. After the Ruan family polished these rough stones, they were purchased by the concubine and transported back to Yuncheng, where there are more rich and noble families than Cui Cinema, especially those noble ladies and daughters of the family, but they all like jade, and even the concubine can't put it down. ”

Ruan Wenbo was very happy when he heard this, they have always wanted to open the road to Cloud City, but there are powerful jade merchants on the road to Cloud City, and some are even opened by the royal family, although the Ruan family has Shen Rui, the son-in-law of the city lord, but compared to those royal relatives and nobles, it still can't be on the stage, plus Shen Rui and King Yue are not close, naturally King Yue will not support him, and Princess Chen is different, Princess Chen not only has King Chen behind her, but also the eldest princess and Dingguo Gong, Such a force is much stronger than the idle King Yue who no longer cares about the government.

"Okay, the princess is really a cheerful person, since the princesses are so happy, and I, Ruan Wenbo, am not a pretentious person, I will definitely give the princess the most satisfactory price."

"Of course, we will be long-term partners, but I don't know how long you can work with this concubine?" Chu Lixue said thoughtfully.

"Of course it's been a long-term cooperation, is the princess just having fun for a while?" Ruan Wenbo frowned slightly.

Could it be that this Princess Chen is a happy master, opening a medicinal food shop and a restaurant in Yuncheng, etc., the business is very good, and even the merchants who provide her with the supply of goods have also made a lot of money, but they have been inquiring for a long time before they want to find a big tree like her to rely on.

"Long-term cooperation? I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. Didn't Master Ruan also say that the jade mine would bid every three years? If the jade mine falls into the hands of others, it will be difficult for this concubine to cooperate with you. Chu Lixue said with a helpless look.

Hearing this, Ruan Wenbo smiled slightly, "Of course my Ruan family is not afraid of those people, they can't surpass our Ruan family in any case, not to mention that there is no richer family than the Ruan family in this Cui Cinema, just because we are related to the city lord, we don't dare to compete with us, so the princess can rest assured of this." Ruan Wenbo said with his eyebrows flying.

Looking at Ruan Wenbo's smug expression, Chu Lixue could only shake her head secretly in her heart, she was really a guy who didn't know the height of the sky, thinking that with Shen Rui supporting you, you wouldn't be afraid of anything? If this jade mine is known to the imperial court, not to mention one Shen Rui, even ten will not be able to protect you. This is a major crime of embezzling national funds and exterminating the family.

However, seeing that they were so proud, Chu Lixue couldn't bear to poke it, so let these people be proud first, and there would be no place to show off if they wanted to be proud when the time came.

Although Ruan Yan also decided to be a little hasty, she had to at least discuss it with their father, but since her father had handed over the jade business to her eldest brother, she couldn't say anything.

As the so-called daughter who marries out is the water that is spilled, since she is already married, then it is not good for her to ask about her mother's affairs, in short, to pull Princess Chen into the camp, what she has to do has been completed.

After coming out of the Ruan family's secret base, the Ruan family took Chu Lixue and the others around the main street three times before coming to the main street, the Ruan family's largest jade shop is on this street, Chu Lixue knows, and it is the Ruan family's eldest young master Ruan Sen who she met here.

Speaking of Ruan Sen, it is the pride of the Ruan family, he is the eldest son of Ruan Wenbo, and he is deeply loved by the old man of the Ruan family, he is the only person in the Ruan family who has a reputation for raising people, and the place in the house is extraordinary, so the old man Ruan also handed over the power of the jade shop to Ruan Wenbo as a reward for having such an excellent son.

Old Man Ruan's thoughts are the same as Kangxi's thoughts, they are very optimistic about this grandson, so they handed over the power to this son, what Kangxi thinks, no one knows, but Old Man Ruan's thoughts, Ruan's family is very clear.

Ruan took Chu Lixue to the jade shop, and coincidentally met Ruan Qi again, Chu Lixue naturally didn't recognize him, but Rean Xue knew him, if it wasn't for Rean Xue whispering in Chu Lixue's ear, Ruan Qi wouldn't let Chu Lixue take a second look.

Ruan Qi is the youngest male in the Ruan family, because he is the eldest, and the whole family is used to coaxing, and cultivating a good man is like a shrew. However, Ruan Qi's flamboyance is not the most famous, he is most famous for being lustful. As long as it is a woman he likes, he can't escape his clutches no matter what, and he can always come up with various ways to include people under him.

Chu Lixue couldn't help but secretly say in her heart, she was really as lustful as the pair of uncles and nephews of the Bai family, fortunately, these three people didn't get together, otherwise wouldn't it be that the women of the entire Beichen Kingdom would be in danger and hide at home and refuse to come out, maybe they would be ugly from now on, maybe they would be beautiful from now on.

When Ruan Qi saw Chu Lixue, her eyes were straight, she didn't see and hear Ruan Shi talking to him at all, looking at his drooling appearance, Wanyue really wanted to go up and kick a few times, but she couldn't do this, in case she ruined the princess's plan, it would be worth the loss.

However, this Ruan Qi is also a bad breed, seeing that Chu Lixue is dressed well, he naturally does not dare to step forward and be light, so he can only look at the obscene from afar.

Ruan Shi saw Ruan Qi's gaze at Chu Lixue, she really hated that iron could not become steel, and she just looked at him and didn't make any other moves, and Chu Lixue didn't seem to notice it, she could only pray secretly, this Ruan Qi must not do anything bad.

Chu Lixue picked out an oval emerald jade bracelet in the jade shop, and asked each of the three girls around her to choose a piece of jade, which was regarded as a gift for them.

Originally, the three girls were still a little hesitant, but Ruan Shi said at the right time: "How can you let the princess break the bank, just let the concubine give it to the princess and the three girls." ”

Hearing that someone is willing to be this big head, Rean Xue and Wanyue and others unceremoniously began to choose their favorite jewelry.

Remnant Xue and Wanyue both fell in love with the same hosta, fortunately, this hosta is exactly a pair, each of them sisters has one, no one needs to be humble, Chu Lixue also specially asked the craftsman in the store to engrave the word snow and the word moon on the hosta respectively. And Ning Xiang's girl fell in love with a pair of earrings carved into magnolia flowers, and that pair of earrings is indeed very suitable for Ning Xiang.

Although the shopkeeper doesn't know who is the person who chooses the jewelry, the person who can let their aunt and grandmother personally accompany the selection, and is happy to make money, must have an extraordinary identity.

After turning around for a whole day, Chu Lixue's leg was about to break, which was a bad problem that she rarely walked, but had to take a carriage or sedan chair.

Back in the Yanyu Pavilion, Murong Lingxiang was already waiting in her room, and when she saw Chu Lixue enter the door, she casually picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup for Chu Lixue.

"It's really hard, sit down and have a cup of tea and take a break."

"Oops, my legs are about to break, and now I can finally understand why some of the ladies in Cloud City like to go shopping in a sedan chair, it turns out that this shopping is really tiring." Chu Lixue picked up the teacup and drank it all.

"How's it going, what happened today?" Murong Lingxiang said softly.

"Well, you see, this is the bracelet in the Ruan family's largest jade shop." With that, Chu Lixue withdrew the jade bracelet on her wrist and handed it to Murong Lingxiang's hand.

Murong Lingxiang took the jade bracelet and looked at it carefully, "Well, yes, it's the jade of the old pit, and the water head is also good." However, have you noticed the mark of their Ruan family on the inside of the jade bracelet? ”

"Of course I found out, that's why I bought this jade bracelet."

Hearing this, the remnant snow, the waning moon and Ning Xiang also took off their jewelry one after another, and looked carefully at the marks on the jade, it seems that the Ruan family is worried that someone is using fake and shoddy products to falsely accuse them. It was really thoughtful, so Chu Lixue really didn't know how to carry out the next step for a while.

"By the way, what about you, what's the news on your side?" Chu Lixue said softly. I picked up a piece of dim sum on the table and ate it in small bites.

"Hey......" Murong Lingxiang sighed, Chu Lixue thought that Murong Lingxiang had no news at all, but fortunately, she would not be angry, this matter was already quite difficult to do, and she couldn't ask for additional requirements just because the other party was the owner of Murong Shao.

In the next few days, Murong Lingxiang and Chu Lixue split up to see if the Ruan family's jade had the same markings. The results of the investigation can be imagined, all the jade artifacts of the Ruan family, from the large ornaments, to the hosta earrings of Xiaodao have a mark of the Ruan family, and it seems that it will take a lot of effort to deal with the Ruan family.

Things have been developing smoothly, Chu Lixue writes the letter every time, and then uses a carrier pigeon to send a letter to King Chen. The endless lovesickness in the letter and the inquiry about Yuncheng's business affairs have nothing else. Chu Lixue knew that they would secretly catch the carrier pigeon, and after reading the content of the letter, they would put it back in the small whistle and let the carrier pigeon take it back, so the news transmitted by the carrier pigeon was naturally of no value.

And the real letter Chu Lixue is handed over to the waning moon, the Cold Moon Palace has rudders all over the country, as long as she gives the letter to the brothers of the Cold Moon Palace, the other party can receive the letter the next day, and its speed is amazing.

Chu Lixue also told King Chen about the exploration of the jade mine in the letter, but King Chen did not send the letter to the palace in time, because he was waiting for an opportunity, and now they only need to wait for Chu Lixue and Murong Lingxiang to use the plan to collect the jade mine before acting.

It is very close to the triennial bidding conference, Murong Lingxiang and Chu Lixue are already familiar faces in Emerald Cinema City, if they come forward to compete for the mining rights of the jade mine, then everything they have done before will be in vain, so they must choose a person who can be trusted and has the bearing of a son.

After thinking about it, Murong Lingxiang wrote back to Yunshui Villa, and soon after, a team of people appeared in the Cui Cinema City, the man who walked in the front was wearing an ice blue narrow-sleeved gown, the placket and cuffs were embroidered with royal blue silk threads, and the indigo trousers were tied in the boots.

The man chose the best inn in Emerald Studios to live in, even the bounty shop Xiao Er was a silver ingot, the innkeeper knew that a big customer was coming, and the other people who were going to participate in the bidding meeting all explored the identity of this man, some hoped that he was here to bid, and some did not.

Hoping that the man is here to participate in the bidding, he is naturally dissatisfied with the dominance of the Ruan family and has been bullying them, while the person who does not want him to bid does not want the other party to be a vampire who is more vicious than the Ruan family.
