The First Happy King of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 335 I have to cheat the money back

"My lord, do you need anything?" An old man sat behind the counter, and after watching the whole communication process between Li Muyun and the guy, he asked him with a hidden smile.

Li Muyun smiled and nodded to the old man: "I need two black crystals, the one with the best light transmission, do you have any here?"

No matter what the old man thinks of him in his heart, at least the old guy has no contempt in his eyes, only peace, this is what makes Li Muyun most satisfied, so he gave up the idea of ​​pretending to be a fool, and planned to deal with the business first.

The old man frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Young master, there are indeed black crystals in the old man's shop, but I don't know what the light transmittance you are talking about?"

"It's transparent, the clearer the better when looking at things through the crystal." Li Muyun said with a smile.

"This..." The old man seemed a little uncertain, and hesitated for a moment: "Young master, to tell you the truth, your request is too vague, and I don't know if the black crystal in the store is what you want. .”

Li Muyun was not polite, tapped his fingers on the counter and said: "Then take it out and have a look, if you are satisfied, I will leave the appearance, you still need to process it for me."

The old man was not so happy this time, he hesitated for a moment before nodding his head and said: "Okay, young master, wait a moment." Then he said to the guy: "Go to the back and get two black crystals."

"Wait a minute, I want the same color." Seeing that the waiter agreed, Li Muyun walked to the back of the store, and hurriedly instructed.

……

After waiting for less than a quarter of an hour, the guy who had just left came back again, holding a tray in his hand, walked around behind the counter, and put the tray in front of the old man and Li Muyun.

It has to be said that in the era of the Tang Dynasty, crystals were really pure natural, and the only thing related to people was collecting and polishing. This is what made Li Muyun most at ease, because he didn't have to worry about buying fakes.

Moreover, the two crystals placed on the tray really met his requirements, both in terms of color and light transmittance, and it seemed that the two crystals should have been one, and some of them could even be combined together.

"My lord, how are you doing? Are you satisfied with the things?" Seeing that Li Muyun was just looking at it and didn't intend to pick it up, the old man couldn't help asking.

"I'm going to polish these two pieces of crystals so that they become two thin slices, the thickness of which should be equivalent to the thickness of copper coins, what do they look like..." Li Muyun roughly stated his requirements, including the crystals that need to be polished. The shape and shape, and a pair of brackets.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the hot sun makes people's eyes a little uncomfortable, so Li Mu naturally thought of sunglasses made of crystal lenses.

Wearing that thing will make the eyes have a cool feeling, and it also has the function of pretending to be a calf. It is really a must-have item for home travel.

"My lord, the small shop can do what you said, but at this price..." After listening to Li Muyun's request, the old man thought for a while before continuing.

"Tell me, how much is it?" Li Muyun didn't let the old man finish his sentence, and took over directly.

"If everything is done according to what you said, I'm afraid it will cost two pennies and five hundred Wen. If this price..."

"Okay, two pens and fives are two pens and fives, girl, give me the money." Li Muyun didn't expect to buy crystals in Datang to be cheap. After all, due to the difficulty of mining and polishing technology, the price of this thing is completely incomparable with later generations. , not to mention that he also needs to make a pair of spectacle frames.

Although the little girl Mu Yu felt that Li Muyun was at a loss for spending two pennies to buy two 'broken stones', she still didn't say anything, and honestly took out some scattered silver from her purse and put it on the counter .

The old man obviously never thought that Li Muyun would pay the money so happily. Originally, he wanted to talk about paying a deposit, but now it seems that there is no need to say anything.

Moreover, Li Muyun seemed to have no intention of leaving after picking out the crystal. Instead, he knocked on the table, waking up the old man and the waiter from their astonishment: "Are there any good hairpins? Pick a few and give this girl a match." superior."

"Ah?" The little girl Mu Yu originally thought that Li Muyun said that bringing her shopping was just a joke, and was a little disappointed in her heart. After all, Li Muyun had been picking out what he needed since entering the store, and never mentioned the gift again.

"What? Do you think your young master has forgotten about this matter?" Li Muyun had a wicked smile on his face, obviously all his actions just now were intentional, the purpose was to see the little girl's depressed look.

But Li Muyun obviously underestimated this little girl. After hearing that he was in a daze for a while, the little girl tugged at his sleeve and said, "My lord, if you want, why don't you just forget about it, I've spent so much money just now, I Don't give up the gift!"

"The reward that should be given must be given, and I will pick one I like in a while..."

……

By the time Li Muyun and the little girl Mu Yu came out of the jewelry store, it was already evening, and the two of them had no interest in continuing to go shopping, so they decided to go home and wait three days later for the old man in the store to replace the crystal sunglasses. sent to the house.

And during these three days, Li Muyun was not idle. While arranging for the fat man to go to the various statesmen to measure the walls, he also began to continuously receive copper coins from various states.

Ever since he was tricked by Li Shimin last time, he has made up his mind that no matter what, he must guard his money and never let some impatient emperor take advantage of him again.

Facts have proved that His Majesty Li Er has indeed tasted the sweetness. After the [-] coins were put into the treasury a few days ago, His Majesty the Emperor couldn't wait to get back his second tranche of funds.

And just when he was about to send someone to Li Muyun's residence, someone came to report at the door: "Your Majesty, I am waiting to see you!"

"Oh? I was thinking about him just now, but he came here!" Li Shimin seemed to find this interesting, and said with great interest, "Then let him in and see what tricks this kid wants to play again." .”

"Nuo" the eunuch who came to report agreed, then ran outside the study and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty has a decree, please wait for the audience!"

Audience?It's not a court meeting, what a fart to see an audience!Li Muyun rolled the whites of his eyes silently, but didn't say anything. He followed the eunuch into the imperial study room where he had been to many times, and then heard a certain emperor's surprised voice: "Hey, Li Muyun, you What is that thing on the face?"
