- "Why do you like women's things? Seriously. Shopkeeper, how much is this bracelet?" Yan Qixuan asked with interest as he saw that Wen Wan really liked it.
"The market price of this chicken blood jade bracelet is 25,000 taels. Since the prince wants it, just get a round number, just 20,000 taels." The shopkeeper said with a smile on his face.
Wen Wan rolled her eyes after hearing this. Twenty thousand taels is fine, just think of it as twenty thousand taels of stone.
"Shouldn't these bracelets be a pair? They say good things come in pairs. You know how to sell one now. If you buy one as a gift, don't you curse them to be alone, which is unlucky." Wen Wan held the bracelet and carefully Looking at it. After muttering something in the ear of Holly next to her, Holly asked strangely.
After hearing this, the shopkeeper glanced at Wen Wan in surprise and said with a smile, "Master, you are knowledgeable. This bracelet was originally a pair. But now I only keep one for someone who is destined to buy it. As soon as Master entered the shop, he took one look. I saw this bracelet and it¡¯s a fate. So, I count you eighteen thousand.¡±
Before Wen Wan could say anything, Yan Qixuan took out a banknote from his sleeve. Wen Wan looked at a stack of banknotes, the top one was five hundred taels, and was stunned. How come this guy carries such a banknote with him and is not afraid of being robbed or kidnapped?
The shopkeeper wanted to take it, but Wen Wan grabbed him. Putting the bracelet back, he shook his head at Yan Qixuan in front of the shopkeeper: "It's too expensive."
That sound made the shopkeeper frown.
After saying these two words, Wen Wan saw that no one around her responded, and the anxiety in her heart disappeared. These two words were spoken by herself. Unexpectedly, there was no response for a while, which made her worried for a while. But soon after looking at everyone's appearance, he gave up this worry.
Yan Qixuan shouted boldly: "It's okay. This is a gift from me. Although the gift you asked for is a bit strange, and you want something from a woman. However, they say that gifts should be given to those that suit your heart, so take it. This is what I gave you as a meeting gift. If there is anything missing, I will ask Changan to send it over later." Yan Qixuan planned to bribe Wen Wan so that he could sneak out for a while. Don't let his father know.
Wen Wan originally wanted to say no, but then she thought: "What do you do with so much money on weekdays?"
"I'm telling you, don't tell my father. This money was secretly given to me by my mother-in-law. My mother-in-law is afraid that I won't be able to play outside without money. Black charcoal, these are all good things. , with him, you can call any pretty girl. You can also invite your friends to watch a show in the theater, or go to the casino for a day and a half. If you have a chance, you can't tell my father. ." Yan Qixuan said proudly.
Wen Wan was shocked, no wonder so many dudes liked to follow him. It turned out that he was taken as the enemy. Dongqing sneered and asked: "Do you know how much this is? Just this jade bracelet, eighteen thousand taels of silver. How much can it do?"
Yan Qixuan said nonchalantly: "Money is not just for spending, but it can also be used for other things. Shopkeeper, pay the bill, and I'll sign whatever you owe. I'll deliver it to you tomorrow."
Wen Wan didn¡¯t know why, but something strange flashed through her heart. But I didn¡¯t have any more unnecessary thoughts. She really likes this jade bracelet and plans to get it. However, she is not in the habit of being ripped off.
At that moment, he nodded to Dongqing, "Shopkeeper, although chicken blood jade has the functions of warding off evil spirits, bringing good fortune, nourishing the skin and detoxifying, it is also said that every inch of chicken blood equals an inch of gold. But this jade bracelet of yours is not the top grade of chicken blood jade. Look, this jade has some flaws, look at it. It's a little dark, but it's a bit lower. Also, good things come in pairs. , the sign is not good. Eighteen thousand. You really dare to say that, even ten thousand is too expensive for me, right?"
The shopkeeper looked at Dongqing and spoke clearly and logically. My heart skipped a beat, it seemed I had met an expert. I was surprised in my heart that this ignorant and ignorant prince, how could he know such a good guy? He immediately smiled and said: "Young Master is really discerning, but this is indeed the best kind of jade, a rare treasure. You If you really like it, I¡¯ll sell it to you for fifteen thousand taels, what do you think?¡±
Even if Yan Qixuan didn't understand the market, he looked at Wen Wan in surprise when the price dropped by three thousand taels.
Wen Wan turned a pair of jade bracelets in her hands, and she really liked it: "Eight thousand." He could say the simple words himself. Therefore, there is no need for Holly to do it for you.
"This young man, you can't even sell the small one for eight thousand taels." The shopkeeper cried in despair.
Yan Qixuan looked at it and saw that it was nearly half missing, and thought it was a good deal. Just as he was about to speak, Wen Wan stopped him with a sharp look. Put your things away and prepare to leave.
The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and said, "Excuse me, what is your surname?"
"When my son buys something, he still needs to report itHis name, the current store, and the rules. "Holly looked unhappy.
Wenwan and funny, turned around and were about to leave. A boy next to him whispered something into his ear, and the shopkeeper's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Sir, please be patient. Eight thousand taels are indeed sold at a loss. However, I don't know if the master has any real knowledge of paintings. I have a painting here, and several painters have appraised it and said it is authentic. But there is something in my heart. If the young master can do me a favor, I will sell you this jade bracelet for eight thousand taels. If not, it will be at least twelve thousand taels." The shopkeeper is taking a step back. If I agree, I won¡¯t be able to haggle over the price if I don¡¯t judge him as being ugly.
Wen Wan looked at the shopkeeper with interest. This was the first time she saw such a businessman, so she nodded immediately.
When Wen Wan brought the painting, she was really surprised when she took a look at it. It is a snow scene painting. The peaks and mountains in this painting are thick, majestic, and the writing is old and hard. It is lifelike with the mountains and blends with the snow. It depicts the scenery of the Northland vividly, pushing the magnificence and beauty to the extreme.
Wen Wan observed it carefully and had to admire it.
"Sir, how do you like this painting? Can you give me an evaluation?" The shopkeeper half smiled, half asked.
"It's not impossible to ask my young master to evaluate flowers, but the chicken blood jade bracelet has to be discounted to five thousand taels. If it's five thousand taels, my young master will tell you. Don't worry, it's definitely worth the price. You I won't regret it." Wen Wan naturally knew that the market price of this jade bracelet should be around ten thousand taels.
The shopkeeper looked at Wen Wan's confident look and gritted his teeth, "Okay, as long as the young master can judge Zichou Yanmao, for five thousand taels, I will sell it even if I lose a lot of money."
"The painting is indeed a good one. If you copy it well, it can almost look real. The person who copied it must have reached the pinnacle of painting skills." Wen Wan turned his back to everyone and looked at it carefully for a long time. Review with a smile.
"Copying, Master Jiang, did you make a mistake? This is an authentic work. Several great painters have authenticated it, and they all confirmed that it is the genuine work of Fan Kuan, Master Jiang. Don't say this nonsense." The shopkeeper was shocked and frightened. But there was still a trace of unconscious joy in my heart. But there was a strong suspicion on his face. This painting was placed here a few days ago. At that time, he murmured in his heart and did not dare to be sure. In the past few days, he had invited several great painters to appreciate it.
"My young master is gifted by nature. Fan Kuan's pinnacle work, "Snow Scenery in the Cold Forest", has been hailed as a masterpiece of heaven by later generations. How could my young master admit his mistake? If it is true or false, how could my young master? Just say it. Since the shopkeeper doesn¡¯t believe it, why bother asking my son?¡± Dongqing sneered.
"Since you said it is fake, please let me know. Where did you feel something was wrong and say this painting is fake?" The shopkeeper felt happy and hopeful.
"Why?" Wen Wan looked at the shopkeeper with a half-smile. She can't talk too much now, otherwise it will easily arouse people's suspicion.
"As long as the young master can tell us, how did you know that this painting is a fake painting, and this chicken blood jade, I boldly make the decision, and sell it to the young master for four thousand taels." The shopkeeper's veins are rising. He gritted his teeth and called out a price.
Wenwan counter-offered "three thousand."
The shopkeeper shook hands. After a long time, he nodded.
Wen Wan laughed out loud after hearing this, interestingly: "This painting was copied by a master. It's really indistinguishable from the real painting. However, there is a fatal weakness. Look at this paper. It's a little yellow. At first glance. Look, it seems that it has become like this over time, but if you look carefully, it is not difficult to find that this is not pure rice paper from the Song Dynasty. If you don't believe it, just ask someone to identify it." For a long time, not a single valuable word was written.
The shopkeeper looked unbelieving, Dongqing said with a smile: "Don't worry, my young master will not trick you. If you invite someone like Mr. Song, the Immortal Painter, to comment, if he concludes that the painting is genuine , this chicken blood jade bracelet, my young master said that she will not only return it with both hands, but also pay you 10,000 taels of silver. The price of this bracelet is only about 8,000 taels, and you will still make a profit, right? . My young master is now living in Prince Chun¡¯s Mansion and will not run away. If you don¡¯t believe me, you should also believe in Prince Chun¡¯s Mansion. He can testify for me.¡±
"It's only ten thousand taels of silver. There's nothing to escape from. It's too disrespectful. If he is really wrong and you can't find him, come to me. I'll guarantee him." Yan Qixuan shouted boldly, Then he gave the shopkeeper a look of contempt, Wen Wan counted three thousand taels of silver notes to him, and then put the remaining two five hundred taels of silver in his sleeve. Changshun, who was beside Yan Qixuan, took the brocade box and stumbled out.
The shopkeeper sent the two of them away blankly.
"Hei Charcoal, are you telling the truth, or are you talking nonsense." Yan Qixuan left the store and went to a place.? asked excitedly from around the corner. This was the first time he encountered such a thing, and it felt very fresh.
"You think that my young master is as idiotic as you, the prince, and you can say such nonsense. Our young master should stop hanging out in the capital from now on? Even if he doesn't want to hang around in the future, my young master still doesn't want to give an extra ten thousand silver to others! You If my young master is the eldest son, you will be taken advantage of." Dongqing was very disdainful of Yan Qixuan's doubts about his master's professional ethics.
Yan Qixuan was very angry at being laughed at by a boy. But seeing as they were saying the same thing, I didn¡¯t know how to refute it. To be normal, he would have retorted. But just now he really discovered that this black charcoal is so powerful. On weekdays, I don't show off my mountains and rivers, but when I talk about the jade bracelets, I talk about them one by one. Just talking about painting made the shopkeeper, who was very knowledgeable, dumbfounded. I bought something worth 20,000 taels for 3,000 taels.
"Master, he's just a kid talking nonsense. How could he take it seriously? Why did you believe him? This time, I lost six thousand taels of silver for this chicken blood jade bracelet." The disciple who led him was anxious. Spin around. If it hadn't been for what happened today, which shocked the two of them so much, someone would have found out the clues.
"If this painting is real, it will cost at least 40,000 taels of silver. Do you think it is worth buying insurance for a loss of 6,000 taels, or gambling for 40,000 taels? Besides, if the review is false, then we have also made a profit. It's ten thousand taels of silver. Tell the young master about this and ask him to ask the Song family to appraise it. "The shopkeeper is also a courageous person.
The two of them continued shopping, and Wenwan bought a lot of things. Dongqing followed the vendor and had a great time haggling, while Wenwan watched happily. In fact, what Wen Wan bought were all gadgets, some interesting gadgets that she had never seen before.
Yan Qixuan felt so embarrassed that he didn't even go in with him. Waiting looked at the large and small bags of several followers around him: "I wonder if you are a woman, how can any man like shopping so much?"
Wenwan gave him a slap on the back of his head. I continued shopping, I was tired, but this place was far away from Jinxiu Tower. The group of people were hungry after walking, so Wen Wan casually entered a restaurant.
"Why is this shop so shabby? Can the food it makes be edible?" Yan Qixuan was unhappy. Some customers nearby looked at him sadly.
Wen Wan ignored him, asked for two tables, and ordered by herself. This shop doesn't look like much, but the food is authentic Beijing cuisine and tastes pretty good.
"I didn't expect that this store looks shabby, but the food is not bad." Yan Qixuan muttered after eating. Wen Wan laughed after hearing this. The food here is not good, but you are very hungry. Otherwise, it would definitely be food for pigs and dogs.
When waiting for the checkout, everyone was dumbfounded. Spent all the money. The waiter's face suddenly changed: "I see you have a loud tone, you are dressed like a dog, and you actually want to eat the King's meal."
Yan Qixuan was very angry after hearing this and kicked the person to the ground. "Tell me about that person who is a bitch. You dare to say that. I am tired of living. You are looking for death."
The waiter cried and howled: "If you don't pay for meals and then beat people, there is no law in this world."
Yan Qixuan yelled at this fiercely: "Did I tell you not to give me money? You are a blind person."
At this moment, the shopkeeper hurriedly ran out, asked what was going on, bowed his head and said respectfully, "Please calm down, sir. My nephew just came from the country and doesn't understand anything. He can't speak, and he offended the noble man. Please forgive me. What's the matter? Sir, the hairs you pluck are thicker than our thighs. We are running a small business and we really can¡¯t afford credit! Please forgive me. I still rely on this shop to support my family. "
When Yan Qixuan saw the person greeting him with a smile, he couldn't take action anymore. He felt embarrassed, thought for a while, and took out the mutton-fat jade pendant from his waist: "We spent all the money, this is our food." Money. Look, can you?¡±
The boss¡¯s eyes were wide open and he couldn¡¯t hide his surprise: ¡°It¡¯s worth it, it¡¯s worth it.¡± He was about to pick up the jade pendant with both hands.
