Chapter 394

Shi Zining chipped left and right, at least he managed to get the 3000 tael deposit together.

Meng Lingyi received the 3000 taels of silver and said with a wry smile, "Master, we have to tighten our belts during this time."

Although the business of the clothing store is good, many of those big families only settle their accounts at the end of the month or in the first quarter. Not only can they not earn money at the beginning, but they have to pay for it, so their money is so tight.

Shi Zining smiled and said, "Don't worry, just grit your teeth and pass. If it doesn't work, I'll think of a way."

A penny beats a hero, and Shi Zining feels that this is the situation he is in now.

Prices in the capital are expensive, and Shi Zining can save money by herself, but she can't treat the tailor and embroiderer who help her, as well as Bi Liang and the others.

Shopkeeper Meng is running around for her business, and she has to think about his health.

Shi Zining took out the golden hairpin that he had always carried in his sleeve pocket, got up and went to the largest and best-known pawn shop in the capital without thinking for a long time.

This hairpin was the only thought my father left to my mother. She pawned it for 25 taels of silver.

The price of the job is low. Before coming here, Shi Zining didn't expect that this hairpin would be so valuable. She thought it would be good to be a ten tael or eight tael, but she didn't expect to be able to be a twenty five tael.

Although so much money has been pawned, Shi Zining was somewhat suspicious.

With the current price, this hairpin obviously cannot be worth so much.

However, the pawn shop she came to was a century-old shop, and it gave her more money. She should be happy, but why did she feel uneasy?

What Shi Zining didn't know was that as soon as she left the pawnshop, the treasurer of the pawnshop hurried out of the pawnshop with this golden hairpin and headed towards the Prince's Mansion.

Seeing the prince, the shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Prince, I have something important to tell you!"

Ouyang Zhi, the crown prince of Qiguang Kingdom, saw the dignified expression of the pawnshop shopkeeper, raised his hand and waved back and forth, picked up the teacup at hand, lifted the lid, picked the tea leaves on it, and sipped: "What made you so anxious?"

The shopkeeper of the pawnshop took out the golden hairpin, and carefully handed it to Ouyang Zhi: "Prince, do you think this golden hairpin is the one the empress is looking for?"

Hearing the word "golden hairpin", Ouyang Zhi suddenly raised his head, and the next second, the tea in his hand spilled out.

Ouyang Zhi threw away the teacup, stood up abruptly, snatched the gold hairpin from the pawnshop shopkeeper's hand and looked at it, the more he looked, the more gloomy his face became, but then he laughed loudly again: "The one who should come is finally here!"

The knife hanging over the heads of him and the queen mother finally came down!

"Who will be the owner of this golden hairpin?" Ouyang Zhi suppressed his smile and asked with a gloomy face.

"Back to the prince, I have already sent people to follow."

Seeing that this golden hairpin was indeed the hairpin they had been looking for for many years, the shopkeeper also heaved a sigh of relief.

Back then, the queen and the crown prince arranged him into this pawn shop just to find this hairpin. Now, more than ten years have passed, and just when they thought this golden hairpin would never appear again, they let him see it. He finally lived up to the queen's high expectations!
"Well done!" Ouyang Zhi did not hesitate to praise the shopkeeper of the pawnshop.

After leaving the pawn shop for a while, Bi Liang realized that someone was following them when he was almost at the tailor shop, and reminded Shi Zining in a low voice: "My lord, the other party's martial arts should be better than mine, I will lure him away later, you go Find Big Brother Xue."

He didn't know when this person started following him, and he only had a moment to notice the other person, but the other person quickly concealed his aura.
