Lord Shang Shu is easy to bend down

Chapter 21 On the Road 2 (Entered the Den of Thieves)

It was hard for Jiang Yi not to remember this Miss Xie Er.

First there was Xing Lin's feat of beating the young master, and later he copied Lay Lan Jin's paintings, and now he pretended to be Lay Lay Lan Jin's disciple. It is very courageous for a woman in her boudoir to dare to do such a thing.

Shopkeeper Wang at the side lowered his head, and the expression on his face changed drastically.

Could this Miss Xie be the twin sisters of the Xie family in Jinling?

My darling, you are really too courageous.

Shopkeeper Wang is also Gu Yuan's right-hand man, who manages Gu Yuan's private property. This Hongyi Pavilion is where Gu Yuan usually handles his private affairs. As shopkeeper Wang, he naturally knows his master well. Who is it, but they know that the master's name is Lanjin, and he is good at Danqing. He has made several paintings and signed them as Lanjin Layman, and only these confidantes know the truth.

"Jiajia died?" Gu Yuan looked away from the rosary beads, and with a flick of his Taoist robe, he got off the soft couch, moved a few steps to the east room, and with a slight movement of his slender, white hand, the back window of the middle hall was pushed open!

The back window faced a small alley, the alley was quiet and no one was there, except for an old cat lying on the bluestone floor basking in the sun, but his voice was a little colder than the surrounding ones, "It didn't happen that he died in the corner. "

At this time, the words of the master and the servant on the first floor faintly came into the ears, and no one could be seen standing on the second floor, thinking about the arrogant demeanor in the apricot forest, Gu Yuan could imagine how big the smile on that bright face was.

"Naturally, in front of outsiders, literati have multiple integrity, so how can they rely on high imitation and fake paintings to sell money? However, if there is an emergency, it is necessary to resort to extraordinary measures. Then high imitation and fake paintings are a bad thing and become a good thing. The same is true of everything, the sharp ones avoid their fronts, the weak ones fill their gaps, doing bad things is not necessarily a bad thing, sometimes it is to save people."

"Slaves really don't understand."

"To use an analogy, things like robbing money are not necessarily bad things. It depends on who is robbing. Those corrupt officials are robbing. Their money is also obtained by searching the common people. So robbing their money If you use this money to do good deeds, this robbery is not a bad thing." Xie Yuanniang said clearly!

Upstairs, Gu Yuan said calmly, "...it's a bit of a fallacy."

He returned to the east room, lifted his robe and sat back on the couch.

Jiang Yi stepped forward and asked softly, "Master, do you want to go down and arrange it?"

Pretending to be the name of the master to cheat outside, and even knowing the secrets of Hongyi Pavilion, who knows if the master's opponent sent him to find out the truth!
"It's just some small things done by girls in the boudoir. Don't take it to heart. Someone sent it. Naturally, the snake will be led out of the hole." Gu Yuan twisted the rosary, "Now go and pass a message to Wang Yun, the treasury is empty His Majesty was furious that the Ministry of Officials could not spend money to repair the embankment, and issued an ultimatum. If the embankment in the south of the Yangtze River breaks again this year, the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Industry will be dismissed like one or two people. I heard that there are water thieves in the south of the Yangtze River , Even the Heyun Governor’s Mansion dares to follow. Three years to clear the magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflakes silver. Heyun Governor Xu Hou is a student of Zhao Shoufu, and told them not to let the Governor’s Mansion be robbed. Tell Wang Yun, I only know about this matter with him , if the secret is leaked, even if I come forward, I won't be able to keep him."

Jiang Yi hurriedly said, "Yes."

Respectfully not waiting to back down, he heard the master casually instruct shopkeeper Wang, "The orange-peel yellow Tianhuang I got years ago, take it to Xie Er."

Jiang Yi paused for a moment, and walked out through the back door without looking back, followed by shopkeeper Wang's reply.

Downstairs, Xie Yuanniang looked at Tian Huang in her hand.

Tianhuang, also known as Tianhuang, has four colors of yellow, white, red, and black. Its texture is like the grain of the heart of a tree, and it becomes denser as it goes in. Tangerine pulp is streaky, and orange peel yellow is the most expensive.

The Tian Huangyu in her hand is the top grade among the top grades, and it is also the most precious field pit among the Shoushan stones. Xie Yuanniang knew that the place that Gu Tingzhi could agree on would not be bad, but she never expected to meet such a hard-to-find field today. yellow.

"Shopkeeper, I don't know how much money this piece of Tianhuang will cost?" Xie Yuanniang also looked quite solemn.

Precious things are naturally not cheap, but it's a pity that Xie's family has no foundation, only ordinary children discovered it, Xie's father's second-rank official salary is only 150 silver per year, and he has been vacant for these years, and usually gives him gifts There are no people here, if it is not for the marriage certificate of Kong's support, the Xie Mansion is really as outsiders say, and it will be used as a gift during the New Year's Eve.

This top-grade Tianhuang cannot be bought without a thousand taels of silver.

Xie Yuanniang's heart aches when she thinks about it, all her private houses together are only two or thirty taels.

Seeing a good thing and being reluctant to put it down, at this time, I realized how important money is, and at the same time, my mind was spinning a thousand times, and I had already made the plan to continue selling high-quality fake paintings like in my previous life.

Shopkeeper Wang took a step forward, pointing at Tian Huang with his hands, "Girl, please take a closer look. Although this Shoushan Stone is Tian Huang, it has flaws. The grain on the surface has spots like toad skin. The layers are like shredded radish or tangerine flesh. If the girl hadn't come to the shop today and asked for Tianhuang, and there were no other Tianhuang in the shop, she would not have given this defective product to the girl. I just don't know what the girl is Will you care about this flaw?"

The other party didn't even know that the top-grade Tian Huang was like this.

Xie Yuanniang's eyes widened a little, and she suppressed her beating heart, "I just pass the time by cutting seals by myself when I have nothing to do in my boudoir, but it's just for practice, and it's okay to be a little flawed."

It's just for practice.

It is still the best Tian Huang.

What a big breath.

Shopkeeper Wang is over forty years old, and countless jade and antiques have caught his eye. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has a sharp eye. If his master hadn't told him, how could he catch a donkey and ride it like a horse, pretending not to know the goods?

This girl from the Xie family didn't know where she caught the master's eyes, but she managed to get the master to give her Tian Huang, whom she had been looking for for a long time.

Heartbroken, shopkeeper Wang's expression remained unchanged, "Although there are flaws, it is Tianhuang after all. The girl who met today is considered to be destined for this piece of Tianhuang. 20 taels of silver can't be less."

"Deal." Xie Yuanniang held Tian Huang tightly, and her heart sank when she mentioned her throat, "It's just that I didn't bring any cash with me when I went out today. The shopkeeper asked people to go to the East Street to pick up the money from the first door in the east, Xie's Mansion." Yinzi, when the time comes, just say that the people in Hongyi Pavilion will give you the silver."

"It turns out that the girl is Jingcheng Shuangshu. Disrespect and disrespect." The shopkeeper Wang pretended to recognize it again, and bowed respectfully.

Xie Yuanniang didn't want the other party to be impressed with her. She picked up a big deal today, for fear that the other party would regret it, "Well, I'll go back now and send someone to bring the money."

If the money and the goods are cleared, it will be too late if it is discovered that the sale was wrong.

Shopkeeper Wang understood what Xie Yuanniang was up to, and he cooperated only with the master's instructions, "This is so troublesome, I will send someone to go to Xie's mansion with Miss Xie now."

Send someone?

There is only one shopkeeper in the shop, who to send?
When the master and servant were puzzled, the shopkeeper Wang had already stepped out of the screen, and when he came back, he was followed by a boy in a blue robe, hugging the circle and bowing his head.
