Chapter 376 - Sky-high prices
Hearing this price, Yu Luo immediately frowned, a little dissatisfied.
Thinking that when they left, the things that Ah Bai had prepared for their house far exceeded the price of this dagger, and she wanted to find a better one.
"Ouch, this dagger of 1,200 taels is too expensive, what are you doing on the third floor? Just look at the first floor, but it's a delay. ”
Just as Yu Luo waved his hand, he just wanted Xiao Er to change to a more expensive one, but a sharp female voice next to him interrupted Yu Luo's words that he was about to speak.
In this episode, Yu Luo's sense of familiarity hit his heart.
When I looked up, I saw a pair of mother-daughter women, a large group of maids and women behind them, and a person similar to the shopkeeper followed, arrogantly walking towards the counter.
Just looking at the faces of these two women, Yu Luo felt more and more familiar, but he couldn't remember it anyway.
"Look at what, don't stand in the way if you can't afford it."
Seeing Yu Luo looking at him, the young woman who had just spoken immediately scolded Yu Luo, her tone was not good, and she even stepped forward and squeezed Yu Luo aside.
"Ah Yue, don't be so reckless, be careful of hurting yourself."
A Yue suddenly made Yu Luo, who had just been knocked into a staggered moment, suddenly full of memories, and also remembered the person who came in an instant, why is it so familiar!
How could these two not be familiar? If you count it, the older woman is still the aunt of the original owner.
Although this aunt and her father are only half-siblings, they are related by blood!
And the young woman who was called "Ah Yue" by her aunt Yu Chuman was Yu Chuman's eldest daughter, Qin Xueyue, the eldest lady of Shangshu Mansion, the cousin of the original owner.
Yu Luo didn't expect that he would go out and enter the first store, and met the aunt and daughter of the original owner in such a large imperial city.
Looking at the silk and satin on the mother and daughter, the jewels all over their bodies, thinking about the Yu family exiled in the wilderness, as well as the Chen family who was locked up by himself as a coolie, and the old man Yu who didn't know whether he was dead or alive, Yu Luo suddenly couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Mother, what do you think of this dagger? I want to come as a congratulatory gift, and it must be regarded as outstanding, and this gemstone is inlaid with luxury. ”
Just as Yu Luo's thoughts flew away, Qin Xueyue pointed to the dagger that Yu Luo had just seen, and pulled Yu Chuman to ask excitedly.
"A dagger of more than a thousand taels can also be sent, but if you want to stand out among the many congratulatory gifts, I'm afraid it's still a little insufficient."
As soon as she heard this, Yu Luo hurriedly dragged Xiao Er, who had just brought her up, and walked aside, "Bring me the best dagger in your shop." ”
As soon as he heard Yu Luo's words, Xiao Er's eyes lit up, and when he thought of the more than 100,000 taels of Xuantie dagger, if he was sold by himself, the commission of more than 100 taels would be more than the monthly money he had worked for two years, where could Xiao Er take care of the high rollers over there? nodded happily, and then took Yu to the chair next to him to rest.
"Miss, you sit down for a while, the small one will be brought to you, Miss is guaranteed to be satisfied, but the price is ......"
"The price is not an issue, as long as the thing is really worth it."
Hearing Yu Luo's words again, Xiao Er still hesitated a little, nodded happily, and ran downstairs.
"Mother, it seems that the second child just now went to get a better dagger for the girl, why don't we take a look?"
Qin Xueyue withdrew her gaze from Yu Luo and Xiao Er, and quietly tugged at Yu Chuman's sleeve, just to remind.
"Okay, looking at the girl's dress, it can only be regarded as average, but that tone should be able to buy thousands of taels of things, but there is a cloud shopkeeper, if we like it, the cloud shopkeeper doesn't have to sell it to us."
After the words fell, Yu Chuman looked at the cloud shopkeeper and pursed his lips with a smile: "Cloud shopkeeper, do you say it?" ”
"Yes, yes, naturally, I will follow Mrs. Qin first."
Hearing this, the corners of Qin Xueyue's lips lifted, and she cast a smug look at Yu Luo.
Yu Luo took a deep breath and shook his head speechlessly.
After a while, Xiao Er came with a big steward, who was holding a Nanmu tray in his hand, and the tray was covered with a big red brocade.
The two walked up to Yu Luo, and Xiao Er hurriedly said to the chief steward: "It's the dagger that this young lady wants." ”
Hearing this, the big shopkeeper bowed to Yu Luo, and the smile on his face was even brighter and more enthusiastic, which made Yu Luo feel a little uncomfortable when he sat down, and immediately stood up, but his eyes were glued to the tray in the hands of the big shopkeeper.
"Miss, this is the high goods that arrived yesterday, and the store has not yet met its destined people, seeing Miss like this, I also have a vision."
"If it's really high-value, it's also fate, open it in advance and let me take a look."
"Okay!"
Seeing that Yu Luo didn't ask the price, his eyes were full of anticipation, and the chief steward was even happier in his heart.
And just as the butler's hand reached for the brocade, Yu Chuman, mother and daughter, who were still on the edge of the counter just now, had already walked over, and their eyes were glued to the tray.
As soon as the brocade was revealed, a jet-black dagger lay quietly in the big red velvet chassis, the blade sharp and faintly shiny.
Yu Luo looked at this dagger, and immediately recognized why it could be called a high-quality product, and there was already a hint of surprise in his eyes!
"Oh, I thought it was some kind of high-quality goods, just such a black dagger, compared to the one on the counter, if such a dagger is given out as a congratulatory gift, it is too cheap, Miss Ben really didn't see it, where is it high!"
Without waiting for Yu Luo to speak, Qin Xueyue, who originally wanted to "rob" on the side, suddenly said with disgust, and her face was even more disappointed.
When Yu Chuman heard this, the joy on his face gradually fell, and he seemed to agree with Qin Xueyue's words, and immediately lost interest in this dagger.
"How much does this dagger cost?"
Looking at the disappointed expressions of the mother and daughter, Yu Luo resisted the urge to laugh out loud, and his eyes fell on the chief steward.
"Miss Hui, this dagger is sold for 128,000 taels of silver in my shop."
"What! Do you want to rob the silver? It's so dark and doesn't slip away, and you don't have a dagger with a gem, you want such a sky-high price?! ”
As soon as the chief steward's voice fell, Qin Xueyue on the side suddenly couldn't calm down, and her fair and beautiful little face was also frightened by this selling price.
Even Yu Chuman, who was on the side, frowned, as if he was a little suspicious of the unreasonable meaning of this golden property transaction.
And when she heard the price of Yu Luo, her face was also stunned, after all, she had seen it in the lockdown city, and a dark iron dagger was auctioned to a sky-high price of 50,000 taels of gold at that time.
Even if it is a lockdown, the price is much higher than outside, but this kind of treasure is circulated in several countries, and it is the same price everywhere, and it is not like the price of necessities such as clothing, food, housing and transportation will rise after going to the lockdown.
In this way, it stands to reason that even if a Xuantie dagger is not auctioned in the closed city, if it appears in this kind of golden building or weapon shop, it should be sold for three or four hundred thousand taels of silver, and the price of one hundred and twenty-eight thousand taels directly makes Yu Luo wonder, is this really a Xuantie dagger?
