"Princess, you'll find out later."

Mrs. County Ling couldn't figure out Tao Xi's attitude towards her, so naturally she couldn't say it directly, and she was also afraid that Tao Xi would be angry.

These ambiguous words made Princess Yun very unhappy, and she was about to get angry, when she saw Tao Xi and Jian Shiming coming back together.

"Madame, this is what you want."

She handed a small red box to Mrs. Prefectural and winked at her at the same time, but Mrs. Prefectural decided to wait and see what happened.

"What the hell is mysterious?"

Princess Yun rolled her eyes speechlessly, thinking that there was nothing in this world that she hadn't seen.

Her father has always been fond of her, and the good things she gets have always been close to her first.

"Princess, it's a rarity."

Mrs. County Ling smiled, and with Tao Xi's consent, she slowly opened the small red velvet box.

Soon the pink dazzling pearl inside was revealed, and Rao was as calm as Princess Yunyun and Ji Zihe, and the two of them also stood up.

"What a beautiful pearl!"

Don't talk about them, even the county lady was surprised.

Obviously, the pearl she wanted was not so big, and it was not pink.

Big white pearls are already rare, let alone pink, how can she afford them as a small county lady?

However, she has always been calm, Tao Xi did not speak, she showed a calm appearance.

"Ma'am, are you still satisfied?"

Tao Xi winked at her, and Mrs. County Ling finally reacted and said busily:

"Satisfaction is naturally satisfaction, but the price is ......"

She couldn't figure out what Tao Xi meant, and deliberately showed an embarrassed look.

"It's a little expensive."

Tao Xi was satisfied, and also showed a look of embarrassment, "Madam, this pearl was obtained from the sea with great effort by the people under my command.

There are people who have lost their lives for this pearl, and I have to appease their families. ”

Jian Shiming and Qing Yu: ......

The corners of their mouths twitched.

Does the master dare to say that she herself fished out a pair of sea mussels from the breeding place and then opened dozens of pearls with beautiful colors?

"But ......, county lord, are there any other pearls?"

Mrs. County Commander pretended to glance at the pink pearl in the box with regret, and reluctantly handed it to Tao Xi.

Tao Xi was not angry, and took out another small box from his sleeve with a smile.

"Now, there's another one, but it's on par with that one."

"I'll see."

Mrs. County Ling understood that this was what she wanted, and when she opened it, sure enough, it was a small white pearl.

This pearl-white reflection is also very smooth, and people can't help but want to touch it.

"It's so pretty."

Mrs. County Ling expressed her satisfaction, and Princess Yun on one side couldn't help it, "This one is too ordinary, and it's still the pink one." ”

In fact, it's not that Princess Yun has never seen a pink pearl, but it is the first time she has seen a pink pearl as big as Tao Xi.

Only once, she was a little itchy, but she and Tao Xi were a little bit uneasy.

"That's too expensive."

Mrs. County Ling frowned, and reluctantly glanced at the red box in Tao Xi's hand, as if she couldn't make up her mind.

"What is the price?"

Princess Yun looked at Tao Xi proudly, Tao Xi and Jian Shiming glanced at each other, Tao Xi touched the pink pearl, and said softly:

"The white one is twenty thousand taels, and the pink one is as for the pink one."

Tao Xi pondered for a while before he said: "For this pearl, I lost several treasure hunters, how can I get 100,000 taels." ”

"100,000 taels ?!!"

Princess Yun exclaimed, although this silver is not much for her, but it is also her share of silver for several years.

"The condition is really good, but the price is ......"

Ji Zihe sighed, to be honest, this price is actually not expensive, if it is in Kyoto, I am afraid it can be doubled.

"It's too expensive."

Mrs. County Ling shook her head busily, "Just this white one will cost me a lot of silver, and the lord will have to reprimand me when I go back." ”

"It's more than enough to give Ling Yuan a dowry."

Tao Xi smiled and put the white pearl in the palm of the county lady's hand, and the county lady couldn't help but look at it over and over again, and said to the maid behind her.

"Well, I wish my uneasy girl would be considerate of me."

The county magistrate's wife handed the prepared silver ticket to Tao Xi, and Tao Xi counted the money until he was soft, and accepted it all unceremoniously.

He also explained in detail how the county lady should preserve this pearl, and Princess Yun on the side of the watch was amazed.

"How do you know so much?"

There seems to be nothing in this world that Tao Xi can't do, although Princess Yun doesn't like her very much, she has to admit that she is really powerful.

"It's just as good."

Tao Xi put the red pearl back in the box and cherished it, and Princess Yun's eyes were eager.

"Ji Zihe, do you have a silver ticket with you?"

She was a little excited, but she didn't have enough silver tickets.

"I didn't bring much."

Ji Zihe guessed Princess Yun's thoughts almost instantly, and couldn't help but tighten his sleeves.

This cloud jewel is like gold in Kyoto, but he can't let him worry about his purse.

"I don't want you for nothing, I'm borrowing!"

Princess Yun rolled her eyes angrily, saying as if she was lying on her skin, when would she be in charge.

Rao is like this, Ji Zihe also said with a bitter face: "But I don't have much." ”

He didn't bring much, and he thought about eating all kinds of delicacies, all of which cost silver.

"Lend them all to me, and I'll pay you back when I get back."

Princess Yun took out her silver ticket from her sleeve and asked the bay leaf next to her to count it.

Tao Xi and Jian Shiming glanced at each other, and the two of them sat on one side drinking passion fruit tea.

"Princess, there are only 60,000 taels in total."

Xiangye frowned, this was the first time that the princess had not enough money to buy something.

That's a shame for the princess!

But 60,000 taels is not a few, if it is not to buy pearls, it is completely enough for the princess to come out to play.

"Cousin!"

Every time Princess Yun called Cousin Ji Zihe, he felt his scalp tingle, "You call me, mine is not enough!" ”

"Bring them all!"

Princess Yun stretched out her hand to Ji Zihe, and he looked at Tao Xi and Jian Shiming as if asking for help.

However, Tao Xi originally wanted to pit Princess Yun's silver, so naturally she would not help Ji Zihe, she said to Jian Shiming with her eyes and nose and heart:

"It took a lot of manpower and material resources to get this pearl, but it can't be sold easily.

Since there are few people, they don't want to go to sea again, it's sad. ”

"It's okay, there will be a brave man under the heavy reward, I will let someone find a better one for you."

Jian Shiming gently stroked the top of Tao Xi's hair, "You can keep this pink pearl and wear it for yourself."

I think it's very beautiful to your complexion. ”

"Really?"

Tao Xi couldn't help but take out the pink pearl and compare it on her neck, not to mention, it's really good-looking, her skin is reflective.
