Chapter 178

Luo Wenqian picked up the jade hairpin and took a closer look. It was very simple. The tail of the hairpin was slightly upturned to bloom the beautiful wintersweet. The whole body was azure, and the rest did not have any patterns. The same was true for the jade pendant. The more I like it.

"Shopkeeper, how much money are these?" Luo Wenqian asked.

"This number." The clerk stretched out a finger, "These two are the works of a master sculptor, and they are also the treasures of our shop. The price of 100 taels is already a discount for the Lord."

Luo Wenqian was a little surprised, 100 taels, the price is too high, although he doesn't care about these general affairs, but he doesn't understand, "Shopkeeper, this jade quality can only be regarded as middle-class, it is not transparent, the color is clean, and the carving is actually big. Yes, there is no fine work, if this can be called the treasure of your store, then your store is not very good."

Luo Wenqian shook his clothes and stood up, intending to leave, but the clerk hurriedly stopped him, "Master, my lord, our price can be negotiated, it's a foregone conclusion, you can pay back the price if you feel like it. "

"50 taels." Luo Wenqian chopped it in half, and the guy's eyes widened in fright. He didn't expect him to be a ruthless person. He thought that the men who came to this girl's house and liked the shop were generous owners, so he thought carefully. , how can you imagine that he is a moderate-looking and stingy person.

"Master, you are being a little unreasonable. This price is absolutely impossible." The man said with a bitter face.

"Then you give an honest price." Luo Wenqian looked at the guy and said.

"Eight……"

"Lord Luo."

Before the buddy could export the numbers, the two men who passed by the private room suddenly shot back.

"Lord Luo, you are really here." It was the magistrate of Pianguan County who came in, Luo Wenqian was a little surprised.

"Master Zhao." Luo Wenqian returned the salute to County Magistrate Zhao.

"Master Luo, I heard that you are going back tomorrow, so we must have a meal together today. This time, Pianguan County was able to resolve the drought before it came, thanks to you." County magistrate Zhao excitedly held Luo Wenqian's hand and used it a little Jin, he thought that he, the county magistrate, was going to make it to the top, but he didn't expect to be able to recover.

At the beginning, I knew that the person who came to my county was a newly appointed general judge. He was young and had just passed the Jinshi examination. They were all theoretically solid scholars. What would happen? Unexpectedly, he looked down on others.

"You are Luo Tongpan from Fucheng!" The clerk exclaimed, attracting everyone's attention in the private room.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the little one deserves to die, the young one deserves to die." The man knelt down in fright. He actually wanted to blackmail the savior of Guan County, so that others could drown him with a spit.

"It's just for business, not to this extent." Luo Wenqian felt helpless.

Because Zhao County Magistrate revealed his identity, the jewelry that Luo Wenqian liked was finally delivered by the shopkeeper at cost price, and he only paid 30 taels of silver. We can trade with a smile.

As for County Magistrate Zhao, Luo Wenqian had no choice but to agree, and agreed on a time, and when he separated from County Magistrate Zhao, Luo Wenqian went to see Zhu Shanfang.

"My lord." Zhu Shanfang cupped his fists and saluted Luo Wenqian.

"Brother-in-law." Luo Wenqian raised Zhu Shanfang's hands and helped him up, "You shouldn't be like this when we were family members, you're out of touch, aren't you?"

"I'm used to it." Zhu Shanfang smiled, and then said with a serious expression what he had inquired these days, "The relationship between the officials in the county government is quite harmonious. Pianguan County is a border county, and people pay more attention to it than government affairs. What matters is the exchange between the two countries.”

"The people in the county are not surprised by the Tatars, and there are many intermarriages. Many of the officials in the county government and their families are Tatars through their furs, but I can't find out more deeply."

"When I was inquiring, Wei Twelve showed up and told me to be careful. There were other people who were secretly staring at those officials. Wei Twelve knew him. He said he was from King Jin, and the investigation was also about Tatars." Zhu Shanfang Seriously.

Luo Wenqian thought more about the reason why King Jin came to Pianguan County this time. He couldn't come because of the drought. It must be for military reasons. Chen Jin'an was not only a member of King Jin's Mansion, but also the commander of the entire Taiyuan Mansion.

"Have you inquired about the Shanxi General Soldier's Yamen?" Luo Wenqian asked. The person in charge of the greatest military power in Pianguan County is not Chen Jin'an, but Shanxi General Soldier Xu Hui.

Shanxi General Army Yamen is located in Pianguan County. Although the two countries are friendly, military affairs should not be ignored. Shanxi General Army Xu Hui is sitting here. King Jin is here. Doesn't Xu Hui know?

"Brother-in-law, please go to the Pianguan Restaurant to inquire. Tonight, the private room appointed by the magistrate Zhao is for several people." Luo Wenqian thought of what King Jin had said on the mountain before, someone wanted to win him over.

"Okay." When Zhu Shanfang came, he was not with Luo Wenqian, and it was most appropriate for him to inquire. Luo Wenqian went directly back to the inn to wait for news, and did not forget to ask Qian Dongliang to pack his luggage.

"My lord, are you leaving tonight?" Qian Dongliang and Luo Wenqian had already gotten a little understanding of the master's temperament during this time.

"If County Magistrate Zhao invites someone from the Shanxi General Army Yamen tonight for a banquet, he has to leave early." Luo Wenqian said helplessly, "We can't get involved in these things now, and once we get involved, it's hard to get out."

Zhu Shanfang came very quickly, and came back half an hour later, "The county magistrate Zhao ordered the largest private room in the Pianguan restaurant. The drinks and dishes are all the best. Depending on the portion, it will take more than a dozen people."

Luo Wenqian stood up, "Dong Liang, go say hello to the people in the government office, and then we'll set off back to Taiyuan Mansion."

"Yes."

Two quarters of an hour later, the three of them rode three horses, plus Wei Shishi and Wei Twelve in the dark, and the five rode directly out of the gate of Pianguan County.

"My lord, I'm leaving." Chen Jin'an entered King Jin's room and reported back.

"Smart people, it's comfortable to deal with smart people." Jin Wang lay on the sidelines, with a slight curvature of his mouth, "Xu Hui's heart is getting bigger and bigger, this time I don't need to complain, I want to come to the Holy Spirit In a few days, you will receive news from your hidden guard."

"Let's go back too." King Jin's purpose of coming this time has been achieved, the plight of Pianguan County has been resolved, Luo Wenqian's action has helped him invisibly, Xu Hui will have to stay dormant for a while, so he can relax up.

"Let's go directly to Yunfang Hall. Ah Yu should miss me." King Jin got up happily and moved his body, "But Luo Wenqian's medicine is really good, and the effect is immediate."

"It's not bad." Chen Jin'an was skeptical at first, but so many doctors said that Prince Jin was in good health, so he believed it.

but……

"My lord, you can't be soft-hearted just because someone has the same eyes as that one." Chen Jin'an has been with King Jin for 20 years, and he can clearly see King Jin's mood swings at a glance.
