my father is the emperor

Chapter 37 Reversing Black and White

The county magistrate nodded, and walked slowly to Huaxiang. Huaxiang gently opened the package, and some spotless calligraphy, paintings and porcelain were neatly arranged. Zhou Li smiled and said, "These precious calligraphy and paintings are all the favorites of the Holy One." I risked my beheading to take it out secretly!" I patted the black lace robe, walked to the county magistrate, and whispered: "Master county magistrate, how much do you think these are worth?"

The county magistrate looked at a pair of calligraphy and painting, and the inscription on it was indeed a treasure from before the Sui Dynasty. He stroked a little beard at the corner of his mouth, and was amazed. , These are indeed treasures, they are not fake, but they are all imitations, not worth much!"

Zhou Li frowned, and said angrily: "Impossible, these are things that the Holy Majesty likes, how could it be fake, magistrate, you must have read it wrong, right?"

The county magistrate shook his head and said, "How could it be wrong?" Holding a pair of calligraphy and painting, he pointed and said, "Your Highness, look, the landscape pictures on this calligraphy and painting are not fair at all, and they don't match properly!" Holding a piece of blue and white porcelain, he turned it over and said, "Look here, the inscription is from the Tang Dynasty. This is definitely a fake, and you can't exchange it for a few dollars!"

Zhou Li snorted: "Fart, these are all true!"

The county magistrate said with a bitter face: "But, Your Highness, the flaws I just mentioned are enough to prove that these things are all fake?!"

Hua Xiang didn't understand the reason, but still nodded, looked at Zhou Li who was full of anger and said: "Young Master Zhou, this is a fake!" After a pause, he said: "I also have a pair of calligraphy and painting in Huaxiangfang. There is no difference!"

Zhou Li didn't pay attention to the fragrance of the flowers, but just looked at the magistrate. The county magistrate couldn't tell because of his suffering, and said, "Your Highness, I also have some porcelain here. Why don't you visit it to prove the authenticity?"

Zhou Li waved his hand and said, "Then go and get it!"

The county magistrate quickly ordered people to take out the porcelain that they had privately hidden, held the porcelain like a treasure, stared at Zhou Li and said: "Your Highness, compare these two, the base color and the green color, there is a big difference Thousands of miles!"

Zhou Li waved his hand, signaling for the county magistrate to bring it. The county magistrate carefully took it into Zhou Li's hands with a smile. He curled his lips and said, "Is this true?"

The county magistrate smiled like an old fritter and said: "This is something inherited from my ancestors, and it is genuine. It is more than ten thousand times better than what His Highness brought out!"

Zhou Li snorted, and threw the porcelain on the ground with a bang, and the county magistrate looked bitter, squatting on the ground to pick up the tiles, and crying, "Your Highness, why are you so unreasonable? The things handed down from my ancestors, how can you just drop them?"

Zhou Li said coldly: "This is fake, mine is real!"

The county magistrate put the tiles on top of his emerald green official robe and cried: "But mine is real, yours is obviously fake!"

Zhou Li moved the Holy One out and said, "You mean, in my Great Zhou Dynasty, the things there are not as good as those collected by your little official?!"

The county magistrate saw that Zhou Li moved out of the holy place to bully him, and he came prepared, and said with a wry smile, "That's not what I mean! That's not what I mean!"

Zhou Lien said with a sigh: "Then you see who is real and who is fake?"

The county magistrate was finally dumb and ate Coptis chinensis, crying: "Your is true, yours is true!"

Zhou Li rubbed his nose and said, "Wouldn't it be easier to say that earlier? Hehe, Mr. County Magistrate, please take a look. How much are these genuine porcelains, calligraphy and paintings worth?"

The county magistrate stammered: "It's worth, it's worth 100 taels of silver!"

Zhou Li frowned and said, "Gold!"

The county magistrate tremblingly said, "Yes, it's 100 taels of gold!"

Zhou Li took out a piece of calligraphy and painting and a piece of porcelain, put them on the table and said, "These two things cost about 200 gold!" Seeing the beard trembling at the corner of the county magistrate's mouth, Zhou Li smiled and said, "Forget it, Seeing that we are old acquaintances, you can take 200 taels of gold to get these two things, hey, it's all caused by the relationship!" After finishing speaking, he still didn't forget to break the relationship!

The county magistrate Wei Wei nonuo said: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your mercy!"

Zhou Liqian laughed twice and said, "You know, is there any big family in Daliu County, the kind that is as rich as a country!"

The county magistrate knew Zhou Li's intentions as soon as he thought about it, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I know, I know, it is the Yin family. His family sells fabrics. A few years ago, some rare silk from the Western Regions was brought in. Made a fortune!"

Zhou Li's eyes lit up, he laughed and said, "Tell me where he lives, and I'll go and have a look right away!"

The county magistrate nodded, and said in a low voice: "How about the officer show you the way?" After a pause, he continued: "The Yin family is in the easternmost part of Daliu County, and the largest family is that!"

Zhou Li nodded, ordered Hua Xiang to take some calligraphy and paintings, and took the porcelain himself, nodded and said: "Well, I'll go by myself, you should put these treasures away first, don't break them!"

The county magistrate nodded, quickly hugged the fake calligraphy and paintings and porcelain, and sent Zhou Li out respectfully.I just wanted to break the porcelain, but when I thought about it, I hugged it tightly in my arms again, with a depressed and helpless look on my face!
Zhou Li and Hua Xiang chatted for a long time, and saw a big silk character, Hua Xiang said: "This is it, right? You won't come to lie to him too, will you?"

Zhou Li smiled badly, and just told the story of deceiving the county magistrate, the angry Hua Xiang kept scolding Zhou Li Zhenhuai, pointed at the door and said: "They are so rich, and the poor are so poor. The gap between the rich and the poor is too big. It can be considered that the wool comes from the sheep, and it’s just a return to the original source!”

Walking into the shop, looking at the colorful silk, Zhou Li coughed twice, at this moment a fat woman came over, and said delicately: "Oh, my lord, are you married or dead?" Funeral, the fabrics here are the best!" Casting a glance at Huaxiang, she whispered, "Ah, such a beautiful Jiaer, you should be no more than twenty years old, you look so exquisite, with a full face. Hong Guang, you should be getting married soon, you go in and have a look, touch, these bright red and purple colors, decorate you, it can be said to be really beautiful, the icing on the cake!"

After listening to the proprietress' repeated words, Zhou Li said with a smile: "Is the store here?"

The woman smiled and said, "Hey, my lord, don't you think I don't look like a shopkeeper?"

Zhou Li chuckled, his eyes paused, and he took a look at the fat woman, her face was full of rouge and vulgar powder, and there was a wart as big as a dick at the corner of her mouth, and said, "Like, what do I say, she is so flowery and jade-like." If a girl does odd jobs here, it's really indecent!"

The woman pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "My lord, you are really good at talking. Let's see what kind of fabric you need. I have a one-stop service here, and the price is very favorable!"

Zhou Li looked for a seat, put the things in his hand on the table, made a fist with one hand, put it to his mouth, coughed twice, moistened his throat, and said in a neither humble nor humble way: "The store misunderstood, I am not here to buy fabrics Yes, my visit this time is to discuss a business with the shopkeeper!"
