45 Gold shops in the streets and alleys

There are fifty-three large and small gold shops in Luoyang City, scattered all over the city.

Fortunately, with the help of Sima Ying and Qin Chaoge, who was familiar with the situation in the city, they marked all these locations on the map.

It also took most of the day.

Yang Xianrong unexpectedly discovered that Sima Ying not only writes beautifully, but also draws extremely well.

Just as he explained to her what the proprietress of a certain gold shop would carefully comb a hanging bun every day, a few strokes sketched the appearance of a woman, and it was extremely realistic.

This made Yang Xianrong look at Sima Ying a few more times, remembering that the emperor Sima Zhen was picky about pen and ink, even if he was a fool, he should have studied since he was a child, and he was also a master.

After carefully studying the locations of these gold shops, Yang Xianrong hooked up three gold shops and decided to start with these places first.

"Why these three?" Sima Ying asked.

"They are all gold shops of a large scale, and they are all in the downtown area, even if they take stolen goods to sell, they will not arouse suspicion, after all, these places only look at quality, not people." Yang Xianrong thought for a moment, "Qin Wuwei also needs to change into an ordinary shirt, don't be eye-catching." ”

"Okay." Qin Chaoge turned around and went out to change clothes.

Mao Hongbin was very uneasy, and told again: "Go early and return early." ”

"Hmm." Yang Xianrong was still a little excited, and it was also a happy thing to be able to leave the palace.

The first stop is the Xilaifu Gold Shop, which is on Zhuque Street, next to the Beijun Mansion, and is also Sima Ying's industry.

Naturally, the owner of the gold shop answered all the questions honestly, such as the quality of the gold bracelet and how much it could be sold for. Although he didn't get any particularly valuable information here, he was able to confirm that the bracelet was also valuable.

The gold shop at the second stop said much the same.

When the guys from Tongxin Jinpu at the third station saw these three people coming in, they were very warmly received.

He just thought that the three people were brightly dressed and should be big customers, and he didn't recognize who they were.

Yang Xianrong also showed a wandering appearance, took out Lan Xiaoyu's gold bracelet and asked, "I want to buy a gold bracelet similar to this one, and I want it to be of good quality." ”

"Yo, I'll see." The man took the gold bracelet with a smile on his face and rubbed the pattern, "This bracelet is not cheap, it is barefoot gold." ”

"Well, that is. My little sister's, it's expensive. "Yang Xianrong also smiled beautifully.

The guy looked again, and the guy who was fiddling with the abacus on the side also glanced sideways, "Yo, why is this bracelet so familiar?" ”

The three of them all came to their senses when they heard this, and Sima Ying approached Yang Xianrong.

"What do you mean by that?" "My little sister said that her father made it for her, and this should be the only one in the world." ”

"I'll see." The man put down what he was holding and looked at it with his head down. "This pattern...... I should be right, someone brought a similar gold bracelet before, and it looked very similar. ”

"Who?" Yang Xianrong answered.

"Who's coming? That's it...... That's right, Lei Dayong. ”

"What?" Before Yang Xianrong could make a sound, Sima Ying and Qin Chaoge shouted out in unison.

"Hey, do you also know about Lei Dayong's family?" The guy sighed, "It's miserable. If you want me to say, he has really been unfavorable in the past few years, first he broke his leg by the wood, and then his wife was sick again, always bad, and he had to buy a lot of good medicine every month to hang, and it is said that it is not easy to get sick...... It's good now, the daughter-in-law is also dead, and there is no need to spend so much money. ”

“…… What did he do with the bracelet? Sima Ying asked.

"I said that I was going to do an aftermath for my daughter-in-law, but the money was not enough, so I planned to sell a bracelet for emergencies." The man handed the gold bracelet back to Yang Xianrong, "What I handled is similar to this pattern, and the texture is the same." ”

"Where did it come from?" Sima Ying chased after him again, and his voice was a little harsh, which made the guy tremble.

Yang Xianrong hurriedly pulled him and said softly, "Brother, where did you come from to manage people's houses?" Anyway, I want such a bracelet, how beautiful it is. ”

"I ...... I just wanted to ask where ...... was" Sima Ying was dissolved somewhere in her heart by her "brother", and her voice softened a lot.

"Well, I know." Yang Xianrong smiled sweetly.

The guy looked at the appearance of these two people, and also said with a smile: "Da Langjun, don't worry, this gold bracelet is said to be the dowry of Lei Dayong's daughter-in-law, and you can ask when you turn around." However, since there is a style, the small shop can also be built one, I dare not say that it is exactly the same, but it is also the same bare-foot gold, quality and quantity, and it is guaranteed to satisfy your little lady. ”

After saying this, Yang Xianrong didn't care about being shy, but Sima Ying was stunned.

"Hugh is going to talk nonsense."

"Oh oh, haven't been through the door yet? Something in love? The man smiled a little brighter, "Then we will have to be more careful to make sure that it is better than this gold bracelet." Is it good to make a peony pattern? I remember that the phoenix luan of our Queen of the Great Jin Dynasty is also embroidered with a peony pattern, which is simple and atmospheric. ”

"How do you know?" Yang Xianrong was a little curious, she had also carefully looked at the embroidery patterns of Fengluan's gold threads.

"The little daughter-in-law is an embroidery girl, and she followed Master Lei Dayong and Master Qin to make the drapery of Fengluan as a husband and wife, so she also knows the pattern." The guy's smile widened, "Don't worry, it must be good-looking." Besides, the little lady is so good-looking, so naturally she has to use the best gold bracelet pattern. ”

"What is the illness of Lei Dayong's wife?" Yang Xianrong just pursed his lips and smiled, and then continued to ask, "Is it serious?" ”

"It's like some kind of wheezing." The guy thought for a while, "Many of our people in the gold shop will have this problem, that is, they often can't breathe, they are good when they are young, but they don't do it when they are old." ”

Hearing this, Yang Xianrong and Sima Ying couldn't help but look at each other.

The two of them invariably remembered what happened at the Shelaifu Gold Shop a few days ago.

At that time, the boss of the gold shop coughed quite badly, and Yang Xianrong asked casually, but Sima Ying only said that it was wheezing.

"Because you come into contact with too much gold leaf, it will be uncomfortable if you accidentally inhale it." The guy added, "Our boss also has this problem, so he always has to drink some wheat dong, schisandra and ginseng to hang so that he doesn't feel too uncomfortable." If we hadn't opened a gold shop, we wouldn't have been able to afford to drink ginseng every day. ”

"Later, what about Lei Dayong's gold bracelet? Did you take it? Yang Xianrong continued to ask.

"That's not true, he just took it and asked about the price, saying that he was reluctant to think about it again." The guy sighed, "Actually, as soon as this man was gone, he sold his daughter-in-law's things...... Hey, forget it, don't talk about it, if the little lady wants to play gold bracelets, it's good for us to be here, we are the largest gold shop in Luoyang, and the quality must be the best. ”
