The three of them entered the private room, and the maids of the Treasure Pavilion were very discerning and served the best tea.

However, in order to get the pearl, Mrs. Qiu also had to step on this treasure pavilion.

"The taste of this bamboo leaf tip is like this, it is not as delicious as the bud tea of our Qiu family's Baiyu Pavilion."

Shopkeeper: ......

I'm really going to be by this old woman!

Tao Xi took a sip of tea and didn't make an evaluation, but raised his eyes to look at Mrs. Qiu and the shopkeeper.

"Since you're all interested in getting this pearl, make an offer."

"The one with the highest price gets it, and it's not bad."

Old Madam Qiu raised her chin proudly, the Qian family is not as good as their Qiu family's heritage.

And it's just a shopkeeper lady, where does she have so much authority to use too much silver.

Thinking so, Mrs. Qiu was determined to get this pearl.

On the contrary, it was the shopkeeper lady who said very cautiously: "Okay, but forgive me for offending, can I check the quality of this pearl first?" ”

The inspection is fake, and the lady in charge is a little worried that this is Mrs. Qiu's trust to pit her.

In case the pearl is fake, and she buys a fake, the owner will be angry.

"Yes, you can pay for it."

Tao Xi peeled off the handkerchief layer by layer, and put the handkerchief and pearls together in the tray prepared by the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper squatted there and watched carefully, the more frightened she became, with a bright look in her eyes.

Old Madam Qiu couldn't care about her identity anymore, she hung her head to look at it, and couldn't help but reach out to take it.

However, he was stopped by Tao Xi, "Old Madam Qiu, when you buy it, you can look at it however you want." ”

She really didn't believe in Old Madam Qiu's character.

If others dared to say this about her, Old Madam Qiu would definitely scold her immediately, but for the sake of the pearl, she endured it and said directly:

"Although this is not as good as the one my son gave me, it is not bad, I will pay six thousand taels."

Not only is it good, although the one her son gave her before is about the same size as this one, the color is completely incomparable.

There were even some flaws on the outside, unlike this pearl, which was round and smooth, white in color, and radiated a radiant glow.

Taoxi: ......

Is this old lady Qiu really a layman who doesn't understand anything?

Although this was the smallest pearl in her space, she had specially checked the information before she came.

The smile on Tao Xi's face fell, and then he looked at the shopkeeper on the side.

"What do you see, shopkeeper?"

The shopkeeper is a professional, and after looking at this pearl, she actually has a price in her heart.

But the price quoted by Mrs. Qiu is not high, she is worried that the price is too high, and the old lady will raise the price.

It was the shopkeeper who added a thousand taels very cautiously, "Seven thousand taels." ”

Looking at this pearl, the shopkeeper's heart was dripping blood, if Mrs. Qiu didn't come today, it would be great.

Then this pearl belongs to their Treasure Pavilion!

Old Madam Qiu pursed her lips dissatisfiedly, and said not very comfortably: "Eight thousand taels." ”

I didn't expect a small shopkeeper to really dare to argue with her, and she felt depressed when she thought about it.

Facing the cold gaze of Mrs. Qiu, the shopkeeper's heart was cold, yes, the other party is the Qiu family.

Although the Qian family is also a wealthy family, there is still a gap between her and the Qiu family, if she offends Mrs. Qiu, the consequences are a little unimaginable.

But looking at the pearl on the table in good condition, the shopkeeper was a little reluctant.

If this pearl can be sold to a certain official's wife, presumably the Qiu family will no longer dare to bully their Qian family.

Thinking so, the shopkeeper gritted her teeth and continued: "Nine thousand taels! ”

This is actually the valuation in her heart, and it is rare for the pearls in Yunxian County to be sold at this price.

Old Madam Qiu's face became longer and longer, and she glared at the lady in charge viciously, "Ten thousand taels." ”

After reporting it, she threatened again: "Do you really want to go against our Qiu family? ”

"Old Madam Qiu."

The shopkeeper sighed, she wanted to give up, but she inexplicably received Tao Xi's encouraging gaze.

What did she encourage herself to do?

The shopkeeper was stunned, but then thought about it, this old lady can take out a pearl, maybe she can take out one?

So she can't get used to Mrs. Qiu, so let her raise the price?

The shopkeeper lady is a smart one, and immediately said in distress: "But our owner has explained, and our old lady is also going to celebrate her birthday."

If something of the best comes along, buy it at all costs. ”

After speaking, she glanced at Old Madam Qiu weakly, looked at Tao Xi and said, "I'll give you 12,000 taels!" ”

She directly raised the price of two thousand, and made Mrs. Qiu vomit blood angrily.

This price is far more than the silver money of this pearl, but Old Madam Qiu looked at the round pearl, and she was still reluctant to let go, so she held her breath and said:

"Twelve thousand five hundred taels."

Well, she didn't add that much this time.

It's just that when she thought of the old immortal of the Qian family wearing this pearl to overwhelm her, Old Madam Qiu was not convinced.

The shopkeeper took a deep breath and looked embarrassed, "Thirteen thousand taels." ”

Obviously seeing her reluctance, Mrs. Qiu was overjoyed and hurriedly said:

"Thirteen thousand one hundred taels."

Alas, she doesn't want any more!

Because she just went to the White Jade Pavilion opposite to post the account, which was the sum of all the silver tickets in the shop.

If you want a silver ticket again, you have to go to her son and grandson to ask for it, Mrs. Qiu couldn't pull her face and said that she was bankrupt to buy a pearl.

After all, her grandson asked her to borrow silver taels a few days ago, saying that she wanted to open a hot pot shop.

Tao Xi naturally saw Mrs. Qiu's thoughts, and quietly gestured to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper looked depressed and said with a wry smile: "Old Madam Qiu, you have won, this beautiful pearl belongs to you." ”

She looked devastated, "I'll have to think about how to explain it to the owner at this moment." ”

Seeing that she looked like a frosted eggplant, Old Madam Qiu's vanity was satisfied, and she lifted her chin proudly.

"That is, how can your Qian family's heritage be comparable to our Qiu family!"

"Yes, yes, congratulations to Mrs. Qiu for finding the treasure."

The shopkeeper smiled with her, the bitterness in her eyes was real, if she let the owner know, I was afraid that she would be troubled for a while.

Seeing that Old Madam Qiu was even more aggressive, Tao Xi tapped the desktop with her fingertips and reminded her:

"Old lady, the money and goods are clear."

"Go, go across and get the silver ticket."

Old Madam Qiu looked at the maid behind her, "By the way, bring a delicate gift box, how can such a treasure be treated so poorly." ”

Her dry hand fell on the pearl, and since it was something she bought, Tao Xi didn't stop it.

The maid came quickly, and soon pulled out a stack of silver tickets and a delicate box.

The silver ticket was handed to Tao Xi, the box was handed to Mrs. Qiu, Tao Xi counted the silver tickets, and Mrs. Qiu carefully put the pearl into the gift box.

He couldn't wait to get up, "Then I'll go first." ”

She can't wait for the artisans to make the pearls into the most dazzling jewelry.

The silver ticket is right, Tao Xi didn't stop it, but the shopkeeper lady looked at the back of Mrs. Qiu and sighed long.

Tao Xi put away the silver ticket and smiled with a smile: "Thank you for the cooperation of the shopkeeper, I still have a pearl here, I don't know if the shopkeeper has any intention to buy it." ”
