The shopkeeper of the jewelry shop brought a tray and placed it in front of Yan Xia.

Yan Xia took a fancy to the pair of baby-playing eight-treasure bracelets at a glance.

The workmanship is exquisite, and each bracelet is inlaid with gems of eight colors. It doesn't matter, there are actually several babies carved into the gold next to it. If you look closely, you will see that the children are playing and playing on the bracelets vividly, lifelike.

This workmanship, even if it were a modern one, she would still be amazed at how awesome it was.

As expected of Jiangnan County, there are all kinds of good things. She did the right shopping this time!

"How much is this pair of bracelets?" Yan Xia asked the shopkeeper.

"You have such a good eye. This pair of bracelets are treasures from the Imperial City. Not only are they for sale, they cost one thousand, five hundred taels per pair!" The shopkeeper of the jewelry shop was observing Yan Xia's expression with his eyes as he spoke.

Seeing that there was no change in her expression, I was secretly happy.

He seems to be really rich.

"It's a bit expensive. The ruby ​​"Fu" brand I bought from another jewelry store a few days ago only cost one thousand taels. You should know how rare rubies are. In this case, I won't bargain with you any more. One thousand two taels. I want a hundred taels."

"No, Sir, now I'm missing three hundred taels. I'm going to lose a lot. I really can't sell it if I can't. So, one thousand, four hundred and fifty taels, if it works, you can take it with you."

Yan Xia smiled lightly.

She placed the bracelet back on the tray.

"The gemstones inlaid on these eight treasure bracelets are of different colors. They are particularly attractive. You can afford them, but they may not look good when worn. Since you are so insincere in doing business, then forget it. I'm leaving. Anyway, There are many jewelry shops in Jiangnan County, so I’ll take my time choosing.”

Yan Xia stood up and prepared to leave.

The shopkeeper was anxious.

"Don't leave, don't leave. How about you and I each take a step back? Please let me earn a little, one thousand three hundred taels. I can only give this price. There is really no way to lower it, okay?"

These eight treasure bracelets have indeed been kept for too long.

In the Imperial City, this bracelet can be sold for at most one thousand taels. Since it is rare in Jiangnan County, it is basically sold for around one thousand two hundred taels. Including travel expenses, he can only earn more than two hundred from one thousand three hundred taels. Two, you must know that jewelry shops are either not open or open for half a year.

This is common.

The most profitable thing about his shop is not the cheap jewelry, but this rare treasure.

The family is still in a hurry for money. If this bracelet cannot be sold, we will have to give it to friends in the same industry at a low price.

"Okay, wrap it up."

Yan Xia saw sweat breaking out on his face. She wanted to keep the price down, but finally relaxed.

"Hey, thank you sir, I'll wrap it up for you right now."

Yan Xia took out the two banknotes given to her by Deng Qiuzhi and placed them on the table.

After a while, a 500-tael banknote and two 100-tael banknotes returned to her space.

"By the way, how much are the gold-inlaid white jade open bracelets and the gold-inlaid jade-embellished red peony hairpin I just saw?" The shopkeeper of the jewelry shop directly gave Yan Xia a small ebony jewelry box, and Yan Xia picked it up. She was about to leave. When she reached the door of the shop, she remembered something, turned around and asked.

"The hairpin costs 600 taels. The white jade open bracelet inlaid with gold wire is relatively rare and costs 900 taels. However, this pair is made of gold with white jade and rubies. It looks like a set of hairpins. It will definitely look good when worn together. It depends on your taste. That's great. If you sincerely want it, you can take it with you for one thousand two hundred taels. I really didn't offer you a high price. Just ask around and you will know."

The shopkeeper was afraid that Yan Xia would bargain again.

Showing weakness again and again.

"Well, wrap it up, but the price cannot be said to be one thousand two hundred taels to the outside world, but one thousand five hundred taels, you know? I'm giving it away."

Yan Xia is going to give the hairpin and bracelet to Mrs. Xu.

She is going to Xu Mansion tomorrow.

Mrs. Xu, who lost her jewelry box, must be extremely sad. This gift from her will definitely be delivered to her heart.

Anyway, I caught so much.

It doesn't matter if there's some blood.

"That's for sure. Of course I won't say to the outside world that you paid back the price. Then everyone will come to counter-bid the jewelry in my shop. What if I can't sell it? Haha, don't worry. Come, I’ll wrap it up for you, and also give you a jewelry box made of fine ebony.”

The two handed over the banknote in one hand and the jewelry box in the other.

After buying what she wanted, Yan Xia came to a deserted alley, threw the jewelry box into the space, and walked straight to Deng Qiuzhi's shop.

In the evening, the two went to the newly opened Sulan Waterside Pavilion to have dinner together.

This restaurant is built along the water, with a total of three floors. The first floor is the lobby, where individual guests eat. The second and third floors are private rooms, which must be reserved in advance, otherwise there will be no room available at meal time.

Deng Qiuzhi arrived early in the morning and made a reservation. The box was on the third floor by the river.

It was a private room with the best location, and he had to pay extra to book it.

"Sir, this is the menu, please take a look."

After sitting down, the waiter placed a booklet in front of the two of them. When they opened it, they saw the names of various dishes, from cold dishes to stir-fried dishes, as well as meat and vegetable dishes, soups and drinks, arranged one by one, with prices ranging from high to low. Low, ten in total.

"Shopkeeper Yan, please."

Deng Qiuzhi turned his palm upwards and pointed his fingertips at Yan Xia, gesturing for her to click first.

Yan Xia was not polite and reported the dishes she wanted to eat one by one. "Let's have a dish of soy sauce with three shredded vegetables, and another dish of five-spice drunken chicken, as well as crystal pork elbows, green cabbage hearts in garlic sauce, and chrysanthemum-flavored pulled pork. Okay, that's all."

Yan Xia ordered five dishes, three meat and two vegetarian. She closed the menu and stopped looking at it.

"Wait a minute, let's have shredded chicken with lotus leaves in oil, red and green liver slices, and soup. Just a simple loofah soup. It's too hot in the summer, so I don't want to drink meat soup. Well, there are also whole pastries, so let's go for mince cake. This is delicious, a sour and sweet appetizer. Remember to serve the mince cake first. The tea should be lighter Cuijian. Drinking strong tea at night will make you sleep uneasy. Okay, that’s it. Let’s serve it quickly.”

Yan Xia finished ordering, but before the waiter could open his mouth, Deng Qiuzhi added a few more dishes.

"Hey, okay, let's go, Hong'er, and serve the guests in the golden box with green tips -" The waiter walked to the corridor outside the box and called a maid to come in and serve them.

"Guests, please have some tea. I'm Hong'er. If you need anything, just call to the door." Hong'er came in with a tray and placed two cups of tea in front of Yan Xia and Deng Qiuzhi. She introduced herself , he backed out and closed the box door.

"Shopkeeper Yan, I have already taken care of the Wang family." After the maid closed the door, Deng Qiuzhi spoke slowly.

"So fast? How did you solve it?" Yan Xia used a tea cup to wipe away the tea foam, brought it to the tip of his nose and smelled it, then asked curiously.

"Wang Guangyao has always loved gambling. I have been busy with this matter early in the morning. I found out about the gambling shop he often went to. I went to the shopkeeper and paid him money to change the paper deed."
