Upon hearing the price, Yu Luo frowned and was a little dissatisfied.

Thinking about the things Abai had prepared for their home when they left, they were far more than the price of this dagger, and she wanted to find a better one.

"Ouch, these one thousand two hundred taels of daggers are too expensive. What are you doing here on the third floor? You can just take a look at the first floor. It's actually a waste of time."

Just when Yu Luo waved his hand, he was about to ask the waiter to change it to a more expensive one, but a sharp female voice next to him interrupted what Yu Luo was about to say.

Yu Luo suddenly felt a sense of familiarity in this scene.

Looking up, he saw a pair of women who looked like mother and daughter, with a large group of maids and women behind them, and a person who looked like a shopkeeper following them, walking arrogantly towards the counter.

Just looking at the faces of these two women, Yu Luo felt more and more familiar, but he couldn't remember them anyway.

"Look at whatever you want. If you can't afford it, don't block it."

Seeing Yu Luo looking towards him, the young woman who had just spoken immediately scolded Yu Luo in a bad tone, and even stepped forward and pushed Yu Luo aside.

"Ayue, don't be so reckless, be careful of hurting yourself."

With the sound of "A Yue", Yu Luo, who had just been hit and staggered, was suddenly flooded with memories. He also instantly remembered the person coming, why he looked so familiar!

How could these two people not look familiar? If we count, the older woman is still the original owner's aunt.

Although this aunt and her father are only half-mothers, they are related by blood!

And the young woman who was called "Ayue" by her aunt Yu Chuman was Yu Chuman's eldest daughter, Qin Xueyue, the eldest lady of Shangshu Mansion, and the nominal cousin of the original owner.

Yu Luo didn't expect that he would meet the original owner's aunt, mother and daughter just after he went out and entered the first store in such a large imperial city.

Look at the silk and satin on the mother and daughter, the jewels all over their bodies, and think about the Yu family who were exiled in the wilderness, the Chen family who was imprisoned by him to do coolies, and the Yu family who didn’t know whether they were dead or alive. Old man, Yu Luo couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Mother, what do you think of this dagger? I think it's a gift as a gift. It's inlaid with precious stones and looks luxurious at first sight."

Just when Yu Luo was thinking about himself, Qin Xueyue pointed at the dagger Yu Luo had just looked at, pulled Yu Chuman and asked excitedly.

"More than a thousand taels of daggers can be given away, but if you want to choose among the many gifts, I'm afraid it's still not enough."

Upon hearing this, Yu Luo hurriedly dragged the waiter who had just brought her up and walked aside, "Bring me the best dagger in your shop."

Upon hearing Yu Luo's words, the waiter's eyes lit up. When he thought of the more than 100,000 taels of black iron daggers, if he sold them, the commission of more than 100 taels would be more than his monthly salary for two years of work. How can the waiter care about the high-roller over there? He nodded happily and took Yu Luo to a chair nearby to rest.

"Miss, please sit down for a while. The little one will get it for you. I guarantee you will be satisfied after reading it. It's just the price."

“Price is not an issue as long as the thing is really worth it.”

After hearing Yu Luo's words again, the waiter didn't hesitate at all. He nodded happily and ran downstairs.

"Mom, the waiter just now seemed to have gone to get a better dagger for the woman. Why don't we take a look?"

Qin Xueyue looked away from Yu Luo and Xiaoer, and quietly tugged on Yu Chuman's sleeve as a reminder.

"Okay, looking at the girl's clothes, she can only be considered average, but with her tone, she should be able to buy several thousand taels of things. But with Shopkeeper Yun here, if we like her, Shopkeeper Yun still has to sell it to us."

After finishing speaking, Yu Chuman looked at Shopkeeper Yun and pursed her lips with a smile: "Shopkeeper Yun, what do you think?" "Yes, yes, yes, of course we should stick to Mrs. Qin first."

Hearing this, Qin Xueyue raised the corners of her lips and cast a proud look at Yu Luo.

Yu Luo took a deep breath and shook his head speechlessly.

After a while, the waiter came with a big steward. The big steward was holding a nanmu tray, which was covered with a big red brocade.

The two of them walked up to Yu Luo, and the waiter hurriedly said to the steward, "This young lady wants a better dagger."

Hearing this, the big shopkeeper bowed down and saluted Yu Luo, and the smile on his face was even brighter and warmer. It made Yu Luo feel a little uncomfortable even when he was sitting. He immediately stood up, his eyes glued to the hand of the big shopkeeper. on the tray.

"Miss, this is a high-end product that just arrived yesterday. We haven't met the right person for it yet. Looking at the lady like this, I think she must be discerning."

"If it's really a high-end product, it's fate. Just open it first and let me take a look."

"okay!"

Seeing that Yu Luo didn't even ask the price, but looked full of expectation, the big steward felt even happier.

And just when the chief steward stretched out his hand to the brocade, Yu Chuman and his daughter, who were still at the counter just now, had already walked over, and their eyes were glued to the tray.

As soon as the brocade was uncovered, a jet-black dagger lay quietly in the red velvet chassis. The blade was sharp and had a faint luster.

When Yu Luo saw the dagger, he immediately recognized why it could be called a high-end product, and there was no longer a hint of surprise in his eyes!

"Oh, I thought it was some kind of high-end product. Such a jet-black dagger is far inferior to the one on the counter. If such a dagger is given as a gift, it will be too cheap. This lady is really I didn’t see how high it was!”

Before Yu Luo could say anything, Qin Xueyue, who had originally wanted to "rob", suddenly felt disgusted and said with disappointment on her face.

When Yu Chuman heard this, the joy on his face gradually fell. He seemed to agree with Qin Xueyue's words and immediately lost interest in the dagger.

"How much does this dagger cost?"

Seeing the disappointed expressions of mother and daughter, Yu Luo resisted the urge to laugh wildly, and his eyes fell on the chief steward.

"Miss, this dagger sells for 128,000 taels of silver in my shop."

"What! Are you trying to steal money from Jinlou? You are so black and don't have a precious stone dagger, so you want such a sky-high price?!"

As soon as the big steward finished speaking, Qin Xueyue beside her suddenly lost her composure, and her fair and beautiful little face was frightened by the selling price.

Even Yu Chuman on the side frowned, seeming to suspect that the Jinlou transaction was unreasonable.

When Yu Luo heard the price, she had a look of astonishment on her face. After all, she had seen a black iron dagger being auctioned for a sky-high price of 50,000 taels of gold in Fengcheng.

Even though the city was under lockdown, prices were much higher than outside. However, this kind of treasure was circulated in several countries, and the price was the same wherever it went. It was not like when the city was under lockdown, the prices of these necessities such as food, clothing, housing and transportation would go up.

In this way, it stands to reason that even if a black iron dagger is not auctioned in Fengcheng, if it appears in such a gold building or weapons shop, it should be sold for three to four hundred thousand taels of silver, and this 120,000 taels The price of eight thousand taels directly made Yu Luo doubt whether this was a real black iron dagger?
