Chapter 121: Turning Over
Xiao Jingtang was stunned, looked at the thing carefully, and his face changed suddenly: "Where did you come from?"
Humming and laughing, Mu Qingcheng raised his chin: "Now you know to ask me? I took it at a low price, such a large piece of ice-cracked glass, only five hundred taels." โ
Five hundred taels?!
Xiao Jingtang stood up, took the glass to the light and looked at it carefully, making sure that it was really true. After all, this thing is easy to identify, and it can't be faked.
Immediately, he said, "You bought it from the Pei family?"
"It's not. Shrugging, Mu Qingcheng said: "There was a businessman who came to me to help, took the sign I gave me to save his son, and asked me to help him rescue his son who was in prison." When I saved it, he sold me six of them cheaply, saying that he still had them at home, and that he could go to him at any time if he needed them. โ
His eyes lit up slightly, and Xiao Jingtang stretched out his hand to him.
"What are you doing?" stepped back, and Mu Qingcheng said vigilantly: "I have already taken it as a favor, only this one is left, is there more." โ
"Give me the merchant's address. Xiao Jingtang said: "I'll help you find Ling Wanmei." โ
is waiting for this sentence, Mu Qingcheng is not in business, and it is useless to take this thing, he originally planned to solve the current difficulties for Xiao Jingtang.
So after confirming twice that he would find Ling Wanmei for himself, Mu Qingcheng readily gave him the merchant's address.
The Pei family, as always, was in the glass business and didn't know anything.
Pei Fangwu did not give up suppressing the Xiao family, even if Wen Wen didn't want to go with him, he wanted to stand on top of Xiao Jingtang, and then he had more right to speak.
Glass is only owned by his family anyway, and now a small glass bead, he dares to sell it for two thousand taels of silver. In just half a month's profit, it is enough for him to be stable and worry-free for the rest of his life.
However, this is not enough, what he wants is the closure of the Xiao family's shop.
The shop opposite the Pei's glass shop seems to have been played, and it has been decorating in the past two days, and I heard that it was Xiao Ji who came down, but I didn't know what store to open.
Looking at the plaque covered with red silk, Pei Fangwu pursed his lips, feeling a little uneasy inexplicably.
"Master Liu, go slowly!" The guy in the shop nodded and sent someone out, and the people standing outside suddenly stopped and ran over to see.
"What kind of glass did you buy?"
"This man looks rich, and he must be buying more than just glass beads. โ
Master Liu was very happy, and he also had the intention of showing off, so he stretched out his hand and took out the small glass ball ornament, and said proudly: "Such a big bead is only five thousand taels, and it is also the face that Pei Dongjia gave me." โ
The slightly yellowish beads, with catkins in them, are not very good in color, but they are large, and they are sold for 5,000 taels at the market price, which is indeed cheap.
Everyone was amazed and complimented, and Master Liu was also happy. Pei Fangwu was watching from the side, and was about to leave, but he heard someone sneering on the street opposite.
"Anything is a treasure. โ
Master Liu was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look over, and saw a person coming out of the shop that had not yet opened and had a half-closed door. Take a closer look, huh, isn't it his usual rival shopkeeper?
"What?" looked at the shopkeeper, Master Liu sneered: "Do you have a better one?"
With a snort, the shopkeeper snapped his fingers, and saw the door behind him suddenly open wide, and the four men came out with a huge glass screen.
Everyone on the street began to exclaim, Pei Fangwu was startled, and couldn't help but take two steps forward to take a look.
The crystal clear glass, which has colorful patterns, red, green, purple, and yellow, faintly constitutes a picture of spring flowers. The glass is very flat, there is no impurity, it is pure and transparent, and there is no catkins.
The four men carried it carefully, but there were so many onlookers that they had to stop and put it in front of the shop.
"You ......" Master Liu forgot to be angry with others, and his eyes were straight: "How much silver does this cost?!"
Shopkeeper Fang smiled happily, touched the wrench on his thumb, and teased: "I'm not as rich as Master Liu, so I only dare to spend 5,000 taels to buy a big object back." If you buy a glass ball of bad color for 5,000 taels of silver, my wife will make trouble with me!"
Everyone was in an uproar, and many people in splendid clothes squeezed out of the crowd, walked to the shopkeeper and asked, "How can it be so cheap?!"
"It's not that I said, this Xiao family is a time-honored brand after all, and selling things is more honest than the Pei family. With a laugh, the shopkeeper said, "Do you want to buy it?"
Only then did the onlookers on the street remember to look at the unopened shop behind it.
Steward Xiao walked out of it and said with a smile: "There are so many people today, it must be an auspicious day for the zodiac? โ
As soon as the words fell, the house slave next to him hurriedly ran to the two red silks under the plaque, heard a gong, and ripped off the red silk covered by the plaque.
Siu Kee Glass Court.
Pei Fangwu's face suddenly lost blood, and he looked at the five lacquered gold characters in a daze.
She...... How dare you do that?!
"Come on, take a look, the Xiao family's glass pavilion is open today, and all the glass items are discounted!" The guy shouted with a loud voice: "More transparent and brighter glass, more and better shapes, ornaments, utensils, and jewelryโ"
Seeing that the big glass screen at the door was only 5,000 taels, the people who had a little money outside were not too calm, and they crowded into the Xiao Ji Glass Pavilion one after another. Steward Xiao kindly sent someone to stop him outside, and only let five guests in at a time so as not to break the glass.
The people who went in were all exclaiming, the people outside were in a hurry, and there were also smart people who ran all the way home to get the silver. The people were shocked and immediately ran to tell each other, and after a while, half of Xingcheng knew that the Xiao family's glass pavilion was opened, the glass was in better condition, and the price was fair.
Pei Fangwu took a deep breath and lined up outside the Xiao Ji Glass Pavilion, waiting to go in and see.
"Pei Gongzi. Steward Xiao saw him, and came over with a smile: "My young master commanded, if you want to see it, you can go in and see it at any time, and you don't have to queue up." โ
The fists were clenched tightly, Pei Fangwu shook his head, and then stepped into the glass pavilion.
Exquisite teacups, elegant vases, crystal cups, saucers and chopsticks, as large as screens, as small as rings, the goods in it are really readily available, and there seems to be only one one. But in terms of color and shape, it is better than what Pei Ji made.
Knowing who these glasses came from, Pei Fangwu chuckled.
She was preventing him from embarrassing the Xiao family, using his irresistible way.
Really...... I fell in love with Xiao Jingtang.
The Xiao family has not moved for half a month, and he thought that Xiao Jingtang was resisting stubbornly, but he didn't expect it, but he had already become a member of the gentleness and wanted to deal with him.
