Chapter 52
"It also sounds familiar to me, as if it's a voice I've heard recently."

Xiaotao also echoed thoughtfully.

After a moment, she patted her head: "I remembered, it was the stupid big guy next to Beiyan Barbarian!"

Xiang Yingxue, who was wearing beads without interest, suddenly raised her head.

He pricked up his ears and listened carefully, and it turned out to be the voice of the reckless guard beside King Chen.

Oh, didn’t it mean that after traveling thousands of miles, there was not a single woman in my heart that I cared about?

Then why come to this jewelry store that specializes in women's jewelry?

Xiang Yingxue felt sick when she thought of how smug he looked when he mentioned his concubine in the theater.

"Let's go with this lady to meet that prodigal!"

Xiao Tao frowned and looked at Xiao Ju.

Neither of them wanted the princess to provoke the domineering Prince of Yan again when General Anguo was sent to the border town on errands by the emperor.

But both of them also knew what the princess wanted to do when she was in a bad mood, and they would not listen to anyone's advice, so they had to follow her silently.

Xiang Yingxue quietly went downstairs, hid in the corner and watched silently.

At this time, Tie Jia's rude behavior had been stopped by King Chen.

The shop owner is also well aware of current affairs, and he serves this "distinguished guest" who is dressed in ordinary clothes but has extraordinary temperament in a friendly manner.

"Young Master really knows the goods. This bracelet is made by the most skilled craftsmen in our store.

This is the only one, gold inlaid with jade.

There are nine rings in total, which are taken from the golden and jade good relationship, which means long and lasting. "

Murong Chen looked left and right, no matter how he looked, he was very satisfied.

"That's it. Please wrap it up."

"okay!"

The shop owner didn't expect that the worst-dressed customer in the shop was also the most generous and generous customer, so he immediately scolded the stupid waiters in his heart for looking down on others.

These guys are really bad at judging people. Does this young man look like someone who is short of money?

He put the jewelry into the box and wrapped it properly, and handed it to King Chen with both hands: "A pair of bracelets costs 800 taels..."

800 two?
Cold sweat broke out on Fei Shi's forehead.

At that time, the Third Highness Murong Guang stayed in Chu State for four years, but only spent 200 taels of silver.The Second Highness made a move for nearly a thousand taels.

How come there is such a big gap between two brothers from the same mother?

"800 taels!"

Tie Jia was anxious: "Why don't you go and grab it!"

"Sir, please don't get excited."

When the shop owner saw that the situation was bad, he immediately smiled and said: "Everyone in Yongchun City knows that the jewelry in our Wanbao Pavilion has always been at this price.

If you guys think it's expensive, I'll help you pick a cheaper one and give you a bead. What do you think? "

Murong Chen also thought it was too expensive.

The climate of Yan State is harsh, and the people of Yan are not good at farming and doing business.

There was a severe drought last year, and local governments were reluctant to turn over taxes. The national treasury has been in deficit for a long time.

Money was needed everywhere inside and outside the court, and even the emperor's wives and concubines were scrimping on food and clothing.

If the imperial brother knew that he had spent so much money on a trip, he would probably be so angry that he couldn't stop coughing.

"Sir, what do you think of this one? This one only costs 350 taels."

The shopkeeper took advantage of his deep thinking and brought him a new bracelet.

Murong Chen glanced at it and saw that the so-called bracelet was just an ordinary golden circle.

Although it is also inlaid with jade and looks just as glittering, it is far less original and meaningful than the one in my hand.

"Sir, I think the 350-tael one is more beautiful. It looks simple and elegant."

Fei Shi glanced at him and suggested cautiously: "The nine-circle one is a bit tacky, and it's also expensive."

Murong Chen looked at the ordinary one, and then looked at the "golden and jade good match, lasting forever" in his hand, and thought, it was only 800 taels of silver.

When Nanchu is captured, I will personally deliver whatever 800 taels the emperor wants.

He clenched the brocade box in his hand, gritted his teeth, and his heart skipped a beat: "This is it."

Fei Shi had no choice but to take out the one hundred taels of silver notes, count eight of them and throw them on the table.

The shop owner looked down and his smile immediately disappeared.
