The clams that can be made into beads are generally fossilized clams, formed after thousands of years of precipitation, and pure white is common, but there are not many pure white like this, which is almost jade.

In modern times, such clams are precious, let alone in this era.

The difficulty of harvesting, transportation, and craftsmanship all make this bracelet valuable.

Zhao Hanzhang looked at Zhao Erlang, "You took this one?" ”

Zhao Erlang: "There is only this one." ”

He took out the gem he had hidden from his arms and stuffed it to Fu Tinghan, "Brother-in-law, give the bracelet to my sister, this is for you." ”

Fu Tinghan was stuffed with seven or eight gems, and he had to hold them with two hands, and he was surprised, "I have it too?" ”

"Yes," Zhao Erlang counted the remaining gems happily, "I like shiny things the most, these gems are beautiful, and my brother-in-law asked the blacksmith to give me a short blade, and then I asked people to set the gems on it, shiny and shiny, it must be beautiful." ”

What is the aesthetic of setting gemstones on a knife?

Zhao Hanzhang had already come back to her senses, she rolled her hand around her hand twice, and said: "You give me the gems, and I will let Tinghe make it for you, since you like gems, you will use two gems to make the hook when the time comes." ”

Zhao Hanzhang looked him up and down, and then fixed it on his hair, "Although you are not yet the crown, but you are not only the commander of a country now, but also the commander of the army, you should also be more mature, I will ask the craftsman to make you a few hair crowns, and set these gems for you." ”

"It's better than a knife," she said, "aren't you afraid that the knife will be soaked in blood when you go into battle?" ”

"I don't use a short blade when I go to war, I don't use a spear, I use a broadsword."

"Then what are you doing with the short blade?"

"It's good-looking," Zhao Erlang compared his waist and said, "When the time comes, it will be hung on the belly, just like the brother-in-law with a jade pendant on his waist and his sister wearing a bracelet on her hand." ”

The kid used the short blade as jewelry.

Fu Tinghan didn't think anything was wrong, and responded with a smile, "I'll go back and design it for you, and let the blacksmith beat you." ”

He and Zhao Hanzhang said: "There's nothing wrong with this, everyone has their own hobbies." ”

"Thank you, brother-in-law!" Zhao Erlang said loudly, and Zhao Hanzhang said: "Sister, I also brought back a box of jewelry for you, which I confiscated." ”

He took them to see them.

Zhao Hanzhang pondered for a while, "The ones in this box are confiscated, so these ......"

Zhao Hanzhang looked at the bracelet in his hand, and then looked at the gem in Fu Tinghan's hand.

Zhao Erlang said proudly: "I secretly hid it, and General Beigong didn't find it at all." ”

Zhao Hanzhang didn't know whether to praise him or correct his approach for a while.

She paused for a moment and praised: "Well done, next time I hide it, hide it secretly, and there are some things to hide, some things to hide, and some things to hide, do you have to tell Sister A if you hide it?" ”

After receiving the compliment, Zhao Erlang became happy and nodded fiercely.

Zhao Hanzhang touched his head, "I'm tired for a day, you go back and rest, tell Mr. Xie about this, the loot you brought back should be shared, and the money that should be included in the register ......"

Zhao Erlang was puzzled, "Why do you want to divide it?" Isn't it all mine? Didn't Sister say that she was going to use the loot to buy grain and grass? ”

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and explained softly: "The grain and grass are to be bought, but some should also be divided." ”

She said: "Whether it is on the battlefield or on weekdays, everyone is tied to the waistband of their pants and follows you desperately, when the days are sad, everyone only asks for a bite to eat, so the food and grass are endless, and the soldiers can follow us desperately; ”

"But when life is better, we can't just give them food, we should give them some rewards if they have income," Zhao Hanzhang said: "The reward can be an official position or money." ”

"And the ultimate purpose of the official position is actually to get more money and make life better," Zhao Hanzhang said: "So after every war, as long as we have spare strength, we must first ensure the compensation of the casualties, and then the reward of the meritorious." ”

"You can't rely on Mr. Xie for all these things, you should also know in your heart, this reward will be up to you," Zhao Hanzhang said: "You go back and discuss with Mr. Xie, how much should be taken out to reward the soldiers, and then you will personally distribute them, and then you will understand why Sister A said so." ”

Zhao Erlang was coaxed back to the city with a confused face, and when he left, he forgot to hand over the gem in his arms to Fu Tinghan to inlay the treasure knife.

As soon as Zhao Erlang left, Zhao Hanzhang looked down at the bracelet wrapped in his hand, "This is a rosary, right?" ”

Fu Tinghan nodded, "It should be." ”

Zhao Hanzhang touched and touched, "It's really beautiful." ”

Having said that, she still took off the bracelet and handed it to Tinghe, "Put it away, find a box to put it away carefully." ”

Fu Tinghan turned his head and glanced at it, "Since you like it, why don't you wear it?" ”

"Not right now," she said, "it may not be right for a long time to come, it's too good, it's too valuable." ”

And at the moment, she is mainly thrifty, she is so poor, and if she wears such a good thing, it will not be good for the people below to learn from her.

Because Zhao Hanzhang is filial piety, she has been wearing plain clothes for more than two years, and there are very few jewelry on her body, the girls in Yuzhou and Luoyang worship her, so they follow her to learn, and many people in Luoyang have been filial piety in the past six months, so that exquisite clothes are not easy to sell here.

On the contrary, fine linen and coarse linen are more popular, not only in Luoyang, but also in Yuzhou.

Because Zhao Hanzhang basically doesn't wear jewelry, more often he uses jade crowns or hair bands to tie his hair, and the girls in Yuzhou and Luoyang have followed her to learn, so that in the past two years, there have been many fewer people in Yuzhou who use gold and silver to make jewelry.

As a result, the upper resources were tilted, and the merchants who went to Yuzhou to trade would bring less silk and satin, but more fine linen and grain that the guests liked.

Now the situation in Luoyang is also the same, the merchants who have come twice have found out Luoyang's preferences, and they have also reduced silk and various valuable jewelry.

Zhao Hanzhang is sure that if she wears this bracelet to swagger through the market and shows that she likes it very much, it won't be long before the clam bracelet will be able to fetch a sky-high price in Luoyang, and other bracelets will also be popular.

It's not what she wants to see, so sometimes she hides it even if she likes it.

When Fu Tinghan heard this, he looked at the gem in his hand, "That Erlang's short blade ......"

"Do it for him," Zhao Hanzhang said: "He's still a child, there's no need to be too restrained." ”

Fu Tinghan nodded when he heard this.

Zhao Erlang ran back to Luoyang City, found Xie Shi directly, and relayed Sister A's words.

Because he said it confusingly, Xie Shi patiently asked twice before he understood what Zhao Hanzhang meant.

Xie Shi only pondered for a moment and then said: "I will go back to the barracks with Erlang, first calculate the income from this bandit, and then talk about the reward for meritorious deeds." ”
