"Have you heard, a young master of the Earl of Bronck's family has died? Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

In the early morning market, a vendor in coarse brown cloth was chatting with his counterparts next to him.

Unlike the big businessmen who own their own shops or even chambers of commerce, these hawkers can only buy low-cost items to make a fortune in this public market. However, it was still early in the morning, and no one stopped in front of the vendors, and out of boredom, this part-time guy began to show off his "well-informed" news.

"Which one?"

The colleague next to him was obviously not attracted by this gossip, and at this time he was wiping a fine porcelain shard, and his cautious appearance was probably difficult to see on the night of the wedding. Although the news was shocking, he didn't have any consciousness as an audience, just asked a perfunctory question, and then returned his attention to the porcelain shard in front of him.

In the homes of nobles, it is not uncommon for several pieces of porcelain to be placed, but for commoners, a piece of porcelain can definitely become a family inheritance item.

And the delicacy of the porcelain fragments in the hands of this trader may be able to attract the attention of some small rich families.

This is a normal thing, after all, the method of refining porcelain has always been controlled by nobles or mages, and the materials required are not so uniform. Moreover, porcelain that is so fine that it can be used as an ornament is also subject to the restrictions of the code and the restriction of status.

Many wealthy merchants bought fine porcelain and broke it, and then asked a skilled craftsman to repair it. In order to get rid of "those who are not knights are not allowed to use porcelain and spices...... for decoration or enjoyment of the goods".

And if you don't have enough money, you can only buy some pieces to show your identity.

It is no wonder that this merchant is so concerned about this large piece of porcelain, as long as he can find someone who knows the goods to sell, it is better than his income from setting up a stall here for two or three weeks.

"Master Bell, it is said that he died of cold fever. ”

The "promiser" was not angry with him, and still told the information he knew, and there was nothing to antagonize him.

Of course, it is more likely that he is afraid that if he mutters for a while, he will not be able to sell the news he knows.

"Yes, alas, it's no wonder that it's such a ghost weather. ”

The peer continued to rub the porcelain tiles, not salty or light. That absent-minded attitude made people have no doubt, and he didn't take the news to heart at all.

The man didn't care, anyway, he had already gotten self-satisfaction from the showmanship of the news, and as for the listener's reaction, it wasn't a matter of concern.

"Don't talk nonsense, Young Master Bell is only four or five years old this year, and he is still a child, you are not afraid of disaster if you curse him!"

Although the two parties had a dispensable attitude towards this conversation, one of the vendors next to him retorted.

He didn't really have a protective heart for Young Master Bell, his real thoughts were just to show off his own news. In a sense, he was no different from the peer he rebuked.

"The one who died was obviously Young Master Meng Luo, and the cause of death was cold and fever. ”

Sure enough, while the two colleagues were stunned, the vendor began to show off what he had learned.

"What do you know......"

The vendor who started the conversation came back to his senses and was about to reason with him, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted.

"How do you sell this porcelain?"

The person who came was an ordinary-looking young man, and the clothes on his body were not ordinary just by looking at the materials, and the tone of his speech carried a unique charm of nobility.

Of course, this does not mean that he necessarily comes from an aristocratic family, after all, I have not heard of any noble children who would come to buy porcelain shards.

For some wealthy merchants, it is natural to change the way they speak and improve their children's cultural education.

Even some professional liars or veterans of the flower field have such a tone, and what they do is nothing more than to put on a noble skin in the eyes of uninformed people.

The other two vendors couldn't take any of their own strides, so as not to disturb their fellow trade. They are all "neighbors" who look down and don't look up, and they still have this moral level.

"Sir, you have a good eye! Look at the pattern, look at the color, it's obviously part of a vase. ”

"You think, it's a decoration used by nobles to show their status, and if they are placed in their own homes, it will have a lot of face. What's more, vases are mostly used by aristocratic ladies or ladies, and whether you give them to your wife or daughter, they are definitely a very good gift. ”

Over the years, the vendor has developed a well-spoken mouth, and more importantly, he has a lot of experience in speculating about the psychological activities of different customers.

He knew too well what guys like the man in front of him needed, they didn't lack a little money, but they lacked the recognition of the upper class and the admiration of the people of the same level.

Today, though, the vendor is out of sight. The young man was not stirred up by his words, but continued to ask in that flat tone, "How much?"

As soon as this sentence entered his ears, the vendor stopped his intention to continue to flicker. As a businessman, you must learn to be interesting, and stalking is the lowest means. Now that he saw that this young man was quite assertive, he didn't plan to bother with words.

"Seventeen silver coins. ”

"Well, a porcelain vase is only about three or four gold coins, and I don't see that your porcelain piece can be one-third or one-quarter the size of the entire vase, and it would be nice to have one-tenth of it. ”

"Oh, little vase, little vase......"

The traders who boasted about the cowhide could only smile cheekily, but they did not have the slightest intention of reducing the price. In his experience, after hearing this inflated price, the other party does not get angry or leaves directly, then it means that the price has the possibility of a deal.

"It's not impossible to pay at this price, but you have to tell me where this item comes from. ”

"It can't be!"

The vendor almost jumped up from his stool like a cat that had been stepped on by its tail. However, after stabilizing his mind, he immediately put on a smile and explained in a low voice: "You should also understand us, this purchase channel, it ...... I can only assure you that this is definitely a good thing from the hands of the nobility. ”

"Of course, I believe in that, and that's why I bought it. ”

The man was not angry at the vendor's uncooperation, he just asked casually, not necessarily to get an answer. Picking up the porcelain from the stall, he dropped a gold coin and teased, "The rest will be for you." ”

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir. ”

The vendor put the gold coins in his pocket and thanked him incessantly. It's just that he doesn't know what he thinks in his heart.

"If I can, I'll help you collect the other pieces so I can put them together. ”

"I don't need any more fragments, and besides, it wasn't a vase. ”

The man turned back with interest and said to the vendor who had made a short promise.

"The original of such a beautiful thing is not a vase, what else could it be?"

The vendors were a little unconvinced by the man's explanation.

"Teapot. ”

As if thinking of something, an inexplicable smile appeared on the man's face.

PS: The porcelain mentioned in the book is refined rather than fired, and in the setting, the material is not clay, and there may not be such a substance in other worlds, so you don't need to bring some of your current experience into it.
