Chapter 58 Shopping
Lu Weimang, who separated from the butler, went to Zhucui Pavilion, the largest silver building in Kyoto.

"Miss, what do you want to see? We have a new batch of jewelry in our store, with novel patterns and exquisite workmanship. Would you like to come and take a look?"

Lu Weimang was dressed in a suit of neon clothes, which might not be recognized by other people for a while, but the clerk of Zhucui Pavilion recognized it at a glance, so Lu Weimang was warmly entertained by the clerk from the moment he entered Zhucui Pavilion. Take the seat, serve tea and snacks, and bring all kinds of new jewelry for Lu Weimang to have a look at.

In fact, housekeeper Lu was the one who took care of the clothes, jewelry, jade pendants and purses of the Lu family.He is a big man and doesn't know much about clothes and jewelry, but he knows a truth, that is, good things are not necessarily expensive, but expensive things must be good things.What's more, in a place like Kyoto with fierce competition, there are too many people who know what they do, and if your stuff is not good, you will definitely not be able to do it.Therefore, Lu Guan's family chose the Nishang Pavilion, which was frequented by nobles and dignitaries, to customize clothes for the family.

This can be regarded as hiring professional people to do professional things.

Relying on the outfit on her body, Lu Weimang didn't need to speak, the man brought her various jewelry for her to choose from.

Lu Weimang raised his chin, pretending to be picky, pawing at the jewelry tray, looking uninterested.

Seeing Lu Weimang's uninterested look, the waiter became even more excited, "Miss, although this kind of gold and silver jewelry is exquisitely crafted, it is unavoidably plain. No wonder you don't like it. Otherwise, I'll put a new one in our store. Take out the head of the gemstone, can you take a look?"

Lu Weimang was secretly happy, this guy is quite good, he nodded proudly, "Let me have a look."

"Wait a moment, have a sip of tea, and I'll bring it to you right away."

The clerk walked into the inner room at a fast pace, and when he came out again, he not only brought out several pairs of gemstone heads, but also followed behind him an old shopkeeper dressed in brocade.

"My surname is Yu, and I'm the shopkeeper of this Zhucui Pavilion. I don't know the name of this lady? Are you buying these heads to wear at the banquet, or give them away? Tell me, so I can recommend one or two for you. "

The old man in dark brown brocade asked. Lu Weimang put down his teacup and said unhurriedly, "My surname is Lu. I wear this jewelry myself, and I want to give it to others. Do you have any good, fresh things?" , Just take it here. As long as the thing is really good, the price is not a problem."

As he spoke, he took out a few large-value banknotes from the purse hanging on his belt.

When the shopkeeper saw the banknote, his heart tightened. Big business was coming, so he quickly asked the clerk to invite him to the private room, and went to the back warehouse by himself to get the jewelry at the bottom of the box.

Lu Weimang followed the buddy and went up to the private room on the second floor. This is indeed the largest silver building in Kyoto, and the private room is very elegantly decorated.

"Please take a seat, this side is facing the window, the light is good, and you can appreciate the jewelry head in a while."

The waiter invited Lu Weimang to take a seat and poured tea.

Lu Weimang walked to the private seat by the window, it was next to Taxation Street, and the downstairs was full of traffic.Lu Weimang looked at the pedestrians outside the window while drinking tea.

The prosperity of Kyoto can be seen from here.It is close to the west city, and all the people who come and go are dignitaries.Except for the waiters, it is rare to see people wearing coarse clothes. They are all kinds of rich clothes, shining in the sun with a luster unique to silk.

Regardless of whether the people of the country have money or not, it will not affect the rich life of some officials and gentry.

Without waiting too long, the shopkeeper came in with several assistants, and each assistant held a set of head jewelry.

Lu Weimang sat drinking tea, and the shopkeeper brought over a set, and opened the rosewood box for Lu Weimang to have a look at.

The head of the fiery red ruby, the gemstone is pure in color and lustrous, and Lu Weimang is sitting by the window, the sun at three or four o'clock in the afternoon shines in, making the gemstone reflect a fascinating color.

Lu Weimang nodded slightly, a smile appeared on the shopkeeper's face, but in the next second, his face froze again, only to see Lu Weimang's red lips lightly parted, but he said something that made the shopkeeper almost vomit blood, "It's too ordinary, ruby I have several sets of hair and face, and each set is darker and bigger than this one. If you are all at this level, don't give it to me again."

The shopkeeper was not sure whether Lu Weimang said this on purpose, or if he really didn't like it, so he quickly brought over a set of slightly larger ruby ​​heads from the remaining gems. Lu Weimang looked at it and nodded, closed the lid, and put At hand, he raised his head and said to the shopkeeper, "Is there any more? Besides rubies, are there any other novelties?"

Seeing that Lu Weimang finally caught his eye, shopkeeper Yu heaved a sigh of relief, he didn't just come here to pretend.So I was in the mood to introduce other gem face masks to Lu Weimang, "In addition to the ruby, there is also this set of pearl face masks, which are also very suitable for you. Although the pearls are small, they are very delicate and suitable for your age. You Look, each of these pearls is perfectly round, delicate and moist, smooth and crystal clear, it is really not easy to collect this set."

Lu Weimang looked at this set of pearl haircuts, nodded, "That's right, do you have any more?" As he spoke, he put this set of pearl haircuts together with the ruby ​​headbands just now.

The shopkeeper couldn't keep his mouth shut anymore, and took out another set of rare sapphires, "Ordinary sapphires are more old-fashioned, this set is pure in color and well-made, you must wear it noble and refreshing. And this set of suet white jade jewelry, Warm and delicate, and the carving is also good, it is the bottom of the box in our store."

"Anything else? What are some suitable for elders?"

The shopkeeper's eyes were red with excitement, and he introduced various gemstones to Lu Weimang with great interest, "Look at this agate and carnelian, which are dignified and elegant in color, and are just suitable for older ladies. And this gold head mask , the turquoise, tourmaline, and lapis lazuli inlaid on it are well-arranged and graceful, and they are also the more popular jewelry types in Kyoto this year."

Lu Weimang stroked the turquoise on the head of this set, and seemed to like it very much, "The turquoise is not bad. If it is strung together into bracelets or beads, it must be very beautiful. Shopkeeper Yu, do you have any here?"

Shopkeeper Yu clapped his hands, "Heroes see the same thing, Ms. Lu. This gemstone is inlaid on the crown, and it can't bring out the unique quality of this gemstone. I said how to make this gemstone better. It turns out that It’s a good idea to make Buddha bead bracelets. But this kind of gemstones are rare, and we don’t have any in our store right now. But don’t worry, you can place a custom order in our store, and within three months, we will definitely deliver to you .”

Lu Weimang looked a little disappointed, and the shopkeeper quickly patted his chest to promise, "Miss Lu, don't worry, if we don't have any in Zhucui Pavilion, you can search around the capital and find a bunch of turquoise bracelets. I will give them all to you." You are free."

Lu Weimang nodded, "Of course I can trust you. I came here to see that you are the largest and most complete silver building in Kyoto. How about this? How much deposit is required? You can tell me the number. I will customize a bracelet and a string of Buddhist beads , the higher the quality, the better, and the shorter the time, the better."

The shopkeeper waved his hand, "Hey, you bought so many noodles from our Zhucui Pavilion, I will make the decision today, you just give a deposit of one hundred taels, I will try my best within three months, no, within two months I've done it for you, and I promise not to delay your business."

Lu Weimang nodded in satisfaction, "Let's settle the score."

In the end, Lu Weimang took out 2300 taels of silver bills and handed them over to Zhucui Pavilion, and agreed to come to pick up the turquoise bracelet and Buddhist bead necklace two months later.

After leaving the Zhucui Pavilion, Lu Weimang walked in front, followed by a string of guards with jewelry on their heads, and shopkeeper Yu waving his arms, sending them off from a distance.

The majestic scene made passers-by with extraordinary identities on Taxation Street look sideways.

After spending a lot of money, the things planned in the past few days have taken shape again, and Lu Weimang can almost walk with wind at the moment.

"Hey, isn't this Lu Weimang from the Imperial College? Oh, yes, you are no longer a student of the Imperial College, you seem to be a ninth-rank official in a green robe. Why, don't go to the Yamen to sit on the bench today, come out Going shopping? That’s right, when I was in the Imperial College, the stars held the moon, but now I have entered the court, and I have been neglected, so I can only spend money to buy some comfort.”

Hearing this familiar voice, Lu Weimang turned her head to look over, and sure enough, it was that familiar face again, but at this moment, there were no other little sisters beside her, only a man accompanied her, looking at their same slender Face shape, it is not difficult to guess that it should be a relationship like brother and sister.

But Lu Weimang was in a good mood at the moment, and didn't care about this person's cynicism. Instead, he greeted her with a smile on his face, "Hi, we meet again. We've met so many times, and I still don't know your name." Let’s get to know each other formally today, may I ask who is this young lady’s name?”

Zuo Chan'er was so angry at Lu Weimang's words that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas were born, her breathing was short, her nostrils were dilated, she stretched out her finger and pointed at her own nose, "You don't know me? Hmph, stop pretending, Can you not know me?. Oh~ I see, you are wearing a green robe now, so you are embarrassed to meet your old acquaintances? It’s okay, this is just the beginning, you are now on duty in the household department, and no one cares about it Right? In the future, you will suffer, and when you are kicked out by the household department, let me see if you are still in a good mood today!"

Lu Weimang looked at the lady who seemed to be angry and started talking incoherently, and then at the man beside her, "Excuse me, is this Lingmei? Is she sick?"

The man with the same long face as Zuo Chan'er sneered, "Why, you don't know me, don't you know me? No matter what you say, we are also ministers in the same ministry. You have been sitting on the bench for more than ten days in the household department. I can still be so calm, I am worthy of being the only female student in the Imperial Academy, I have great endurance!"

Lu Weimang scratched his head, "I'm sorry, I'm blind and don't like to remember people. But if you say me in front of me, then I'll be impolite. You'd better report your family name before I do it, so as to save See you next time, I still don't match you brothers and sisters, when the time comes, maybe you will suffer again."

After Lu Weimang finished speaking, he ran over and kicked the man's leg, knocking him down, and then grabbed the woman's slap and threw her out.He solved the two people like lightning and flint, crossed his hips, and said to the two lying on the ground, "Although I don't know who you are, I also know that you must have done a good job. I will teach you a little lesson today. It’s best not to appear in front of me, otherwise you will hit me once.”

The servant girl of the two had been stopped by Lu Weimang's guards long ago. Seeing that Lu Weimang was so arrogant, he couldn't help shouting, "Go and call the servant, Lu Weimang has gone crazy again."

Zuo Chan'er shouted obliquely, but the passers-by were too lazy to respond.They saw the provocative appearance of the two brothers and sisters with their own eyes, and now they only focused on watching the excitement, and no one went to the yamen servant.

"Who is making noise here?"

The crowd watching the excitement turned their heads and saw Huo Jing, a well-known young general in Kyoto riding a handsome black horse, stepping forward slowly, his expression as indifferent and serious as ever.
