Youbai was just wondering why the people in Guyue Pavilion seemed not to recognize Shen Guidi.

Now I understand it.

It must be Shen Guidi who came here before and did not reveal his identity.

She looked at Shopkeeper Zhao meaningfully, and repeated Shen Guiyi's words with a smile: "Yes, shopkeeper, this Guyue Pavilion is open for business, how come the shop is divided into three levels, and even the people are divided into three, six, and nine levels?

We are all spending money on jewelry, so why can’t we choose first?”

Youbai's voice was full of sarcasm, which made Shopkeeper Zhao blush and feel annoyed.

He suppressed his anger and ignored Youbai's sarcasm. He only explained to Shen Guidi: "Madam, although Guyue Pavilion has been in business for a long time and has a certain scale, we cannot afford to offend those in the Duke's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion.

You see, they are just some jewelry.

How about this, I will take a batch to the Duke's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion for the young ladies to choose first, and when they have decided on the style, I will give the rest to you to choose first, do you think this is okay?"

"Isn't that the one they chose? Why?" Youbai muttered softly. Yunshu, who was standing on the other side of Shen Guidi, glanced at him lightly. He immediately became silent like a quail.

When Shopkeeper Zhao heard this, his face turned unhappy.

Think about it for a moment.

He could only grit his teeth and suggest, "Madam, how about this? Take a look. If you don't like the styles on the shelf here, when the new ones are put on the shelf, as long as you buy enough jewelry worth one thousand taels, I will make the decision and give you... 95% discount. How about that?"

This sentence still has the same meaning as the previous one.

The idea was still to let her choose the remaining styles, the difference was that she was given an almost negligible discount.

What does Manager Zhao mean by this?

Gold, silver, jewelry, etc., some are cheap and some are expensive.

There is one model that is worth a thousand taels of gold, while there are also eight or ten models that cannot even add up to a hundred taels of gold.

Does Manager Zhao mean that the limit for them to buy jewelry is one thousand taels?

Shen Guidi stared at him coldly, remaining silent.

Shopkeeper Zhao couldn't figure out what she was thinking for a moment.

I thought of the conflict between Shen Guicui and the granddaughter of Marquis Jian'an last time.

Thinking about her intentional trouble this time, Shopkeeper Zhao felt that the young lady in front of him was a trouble. If he tolerated her mischief again and again for the sake of those mosquito-legged pieces of meat.

I'm afraid there will be endless troubles in the future.

Think about it for a moment.

Shopkeeper Zhao simply said, "Madam, as you know, our Guyue Pavilion is closed today. Although the new jewelry has arrived, it is not available for sale today. Even if you want to open it, it is really... not very convenient for us.

Otherwise, there are many jewelry shops here on Changrong Street.

There is also a shop diagonally opposite to us..." As he spoke, he pointed his hand somewhere outside the window and continued, "Look, the one called Yuzhifang has a very complete range of styles.

I have also been to see them. Although most of them are related to jade, there are also many gold and silver styles.

We are on holiday today, so I am afraid we can't serve you well. How about you go to the Jade Hairpin Shop and pick some? I heard that their boss bought a lot of raw stones and made them into jade jewelry some time ago. Do you want to go and take a look?"

Shen Guidi did not look in the direction indicated by Manager Zhao.

Instead, he stared straight at Shopkeeper Zhao.

Youbai and Yunshu beside her had a tacit understanding at this moment. They both rolled their eyes at Manager Zhao.

Shopkeeper Zhao was feeling nervous, but he still looked at Shen Guidi eagerly.

There is a hidden expectation in his eyes.

Shen Guidi smiled suddenly.

Her clear and sharp eyes fell on Shopkeeper Zhao, but there was no warmth in them.

She narrowed her cold eyes, looked at Shopkeeper Zhao sinisterly, and said in a cold voice: "Shopkeeper Zhao, do you mean that I can only afford things worth one thousand taels? Then if I buy things worth ten thousand taels, how much discount will Shopkeeper Zhao give me?"

Shopkeeper Zhao was stunned: "..."

However, there was a hint of joy on his face, which was very annoying to Shen Guidi.

Without waiting for his answer, Shen Guiyi asked again: "Manager Zhao, I have not been in Beijing for a long time, but I have never heard of such a thing as deceiving customers in the dignified Gu Yue Pavilion.

A jewelry shop.

In theory, as long as you can afford it, you can choose whatever you want.

Are these new products of yours for the ladies in the Duke's and Prince's mansions?

Or maybe they spent a lot of money in Guyue Pavilion?

If this is true, it is not a big deal. They must have some special treatment to justify the money they spend in Guyue Pavilion.

But you can easily distinguish the new styles from those sent to their houses.

By having different styles, a lot of embarrassment and dissatisfaction can be avoided.

But you mixed the two together. What? Do you think that customers should buy what others have left over? Do you think they are not qualified to wear better and more beautiful jewelry from your Gu Yue Pavilion?"

When these words come out, it becomes a bit serious.

Manager Zhao looked a little unhappy and embarrassed.

What the lady in front of them said, haven't they tried it before?

From the beginning, I was alone.

Each of them has their own independent day to launch new products, and they also invite different people to customize different jewelry styles for the young ladies of the aristocratic families.

Who would have known that one day a princess would take a fancy to the jewelry they put on display in the shop?

He still remembered that time when the princess caused quite a big commotion.

Later, Mr. Lin simply mixed all the jewelry together and asked them to choose first. After they had chosen, he put the remaining ones on the shelf for sale. This was also the reason why Guyue Pavilion's business had been increasingly sluggish in the past two years.

Most of the beautiful styles that kept up with the fashion in the capital were picked up.

Shen Guidi walked around the entire three floors of Guyue Pavilion that day, but in the end she didn't choose many items. One of the reasons was this: she really couldn't pick out many that caught her eye.

Shopkeeper Zhao really didn't expect that Guyue Pavilion had been quiet for so many years.

Now I have met another difficult one.

but……

His focus was not here, but on Shen Guidi's words "I have not been in Beijing for long". What does this mean?

This means that the woman in front of him is unlikely to be a noble lady from a wealthy family in Beijing.

Shopkeeper Zhao's mind started working rapidly.

He thought carefully about the people who had come to Beijing in the past year, some of whom had fame and prominent family backgrounds and had lived in the capital for a long time. After looking around, he couldn't match any of them.

There are some prominent families who have come to Beijing in the past year.

Most of them are those who come to Beijing at the end of the year to spend the New Year with the royal relatives. Most of these people will not stay in the capital for long. At the latest, they will stay in the capital to worship their ancestors, and then leave after Qingming Festival.

Now that the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, those who should leave have already left.

There are not many left.

Those female relatives all like to stroll around the capital, and buying jewelry is the most basic thing for them. He has seen most of them, but he really doesn't recognize the one in front of him.

He guessed that the woman in front of him might have some background in her family, but she had not been to the capital for many years and had no idea about the ways of the world there. Otherwise, he could not explain why the woman in front of him dared to go against the granddaughter of Marquis Jian'an.
