Chapter 110 Gorgeous things
"Opening an ordinary restaurant is a few thousand taels, but if we want to open a largest and highest-end restaurant in Chang'an City, the cost of a few thousand taels is definitely not enough.
Let's spend 20,000 taels of silver."
Queen Wang held her fingers and counted them.
Twenty thousand taels.
This number made Princess Zhaoning suddenly feel a pain.
After hesitating for a moment, he stammered: "Mother, son minister, son minister, have only ten thousand taels of silver in his hand."
Ten thousand taels.
It still scared Queen Wang.
"Ning'er, how come you have so much money?"
"Yes, it was the last time I sold the items from my father's imperial study, I, I secretly left them."
Queen Wang opened her eyes wide in surprise.
"You mean, you sold a total of 50,000 taels of silver."
After receiving the affirmative reply, Queen Wang looked at the shelves of various ornaments, bottles and jars in her house, and was filled with joy.
This is all silver, a lot of money.
After Princess Zhaoning left, Queen Wang immediately brought the palace maid Xiu'er who served her.
Xiu'er is in her thirties. She has been with Queen Wang since she was ten years old. She can be said to be the one she trusts most.
"Xiu'er, you go to the street later and look for a shop like Qi Xuanzhai, and see how much money our items can sell."
After saying that, he stood up and found a white jade bowl as big as a palm on the shelf.
I held it in my hand and looked at it for a while, "It's a pity to use this thing for dinner, but it's a pity to put it on and watch it."
Xiu'er was very smart and said with a smile: "When the Empress says this, then this white jade bowl is like the useless thing Yang Xiu said."
Abandoned ribs.
Queen Wang sighed, "What I said is that these things are mostly useless to me, so it's better to take them out and exchange them for some money."
Xiu'er nodded and carefully put it into her sleeve.
Since Zhaoning moved to the Imperial Study Room, the palace maids went out to Tai Chi Palace and the inspections were much stricter.
Therefore, Xiu'er was extremely careful. After hiding the white jade bowl, she had no flaws when walking.
"Yeah, go."
Queen Wang nodded with satisfaction.
Carefully left Tai Chi Palace and Xiu'er headed straight to Dongcheng.
In the East City, there are several large antique calligraphy and painting stores. The most conspicuous one is of course Yang Qunsheng's Qunsheng Ju.
Xiu'er stood at the door and observed for a while. She saw people coming in and out from time to time. It seemed that the business of this company was pretty good.
Then he plucked up his courage and walked in.
Behind the counter that was half a person tall, an old man with a white beard was looking at the treasure he had just obtained.
Seeing Xiu'er come in.
After taking his eyes, the old man's expression changed slightly.
Although Xiu'er is casual, the material on her clothes is obviously of high-quality silk. When she looks closer, she looks different from an ordinary maid.
Looking at the walking posture, it has a calmness and confidence.
This is not an ordinary maid.
Either rich or noble.
The old man felt more careful.
"Is there anything wrong with this girl?"
Xiu'er nodded and carefully took out the white jade bowl from her sleeve, "Shopkeeper, look at how much is this worth?"
The old man took it and took it in his hand and looked at it carefully.
This is the best mutton fat jade.
Such materials are made of jade pendants, and a little materials are sky-high.
Not to mention making a bowl that big.
This is not something that ordinary people can have.
The old man gently put it down and bowed his hand and said, "Please wait for a while, girl, I'll invite our boss to come and see him."
In the backyard, Yang Qunsheng was repairing calligraphy and paintings. When he saw the old man coming, he stopped the movement in his hand and asked softly: "Old Zhao, what's the matter?"
Lao Zhao pointed outside, "Owner, someone came outside. I saw that the object was of some origin and dared not make decisions without authorization."
Yang Qunsheng smiled slightly and tidied up his long gown, "Let's go and take a look."
Something stumped Lao Zhao.”
The two of them came to the front one after another.
Lao Zhao smiled and said to Xiu'er, "Girl, this is our boss, let him give him a look."
Xiu'er didn't understand what it meant to be attracted to her, and she only had an old idea in her mind, that is, she must have looked at this bowl and must not leave her sight.
Yang Qunsheng first looked up and down, then looked at the white jade bowl, then went to the side with a solemn expression to clean his hands, and then carefully picked up the white jade bowl.
Look left and right, after some research.
He put it down gently, smiled and said to Xiu'er, "Miss, you are the best mutton fat jade. This item can cost at least one thousand taels of silver."
One thousand taels.
Xiu'er felt a sense of joy.
However, she is not a little palace maid who has never seen the world. Since Empress Wang was the Princess of Linzi, she has followed her side, and she has naturally seen countless big and small battles.
Seeing that the other party had already bid 1,000 taels, Xiu'er immediately decided to double it.
Her face looked calm, "Oh, my master said, this bowl is less than two thousand taels, so I won't sell it."
Two thousand taels.
Old Zhao, who was beside him, sighed slightly after hearing this.
If this is worth it, it is almost worth the money, but, as Queen Wang said herself, this thing is not useful or seen, and it feels a bit useless.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, a smile surged on Yang Qunsheng's face.
"Okay, just follow the girl, two thousand taels."
He turned to look at the old man, "Old Zhao, go get money for the girl."
this.
Lao Zhao wanted to persuade him a few more words, but was stopped by Yang Qunsheng's eyes.
It seems that the boss has his own ideas.
Old Zhao nodded, turned around and entered the inner room. He didn't have much effort. He took out two flying money and carefully handed it to Xiu'er.
"Girl, you have collected the money. Go back and tell your master. If there is anything else, I, Yang Qunsheng, will definitely give you a satisfactory price."
Xiu'er nodded and left with joy.
"Boss, what do you mean?"
Seeing Xiu'er walking away, Lao Zhao finally couldn't help but speak.
Yang Qunsheng smiled slightly, "Old Zhao, I believe you can see that too. This girl is extraordinary," Old Zhao nodded.
"Yes, I think it's either rich or noble."
Yang Qunsheng shook his head slightly.
"I don't think so. Have you ever heard of Qi Qiang's incident a few days ago?"
"Boss, you mean, this girl is from the palace."
Lao Zhao opened his mouth wide in surprise.
"I think eight out of ten are the only ones in the palace. There are these flashy things."
Old Zhao was even more confused and shook his head and asked, "Since the boss knows it's flashy, why do you have to buy it at a high price?"
"Hahaha."
Yang Qunsheng couldn't help laughing.
"Old Zhao, you have been following me for almost twenty years."
"Yeah, it's been nineteen years."
