Chapter 33 33. Patek Philippe
  There were actually two international friends in the carriage. Just by looking at their appearance, Shiliu couldn't tell which country the other was from, so he smiled friendly at them to show his friendship.

The same cannot be said for Brother Shi San. When he saw the foreigner with blond hair and blue eyes, he was so frightened that he didn't even dare to breathe.

In the end, Shiliu said that she would stay in this compartment, while Shi Sange went to the soft sleeper in another compartment.

"Hello, hello!" The blonde looked at Pomegranate and said hello.

"Hello, hello!" Pomegranate didn't expect that the other party would greet her, and she didn't know what attracted her to him.

"This silk of yours is so beautiful, I wonder where you bought it from?"

The silk around Pomegranate's neck was given to her by Princess Rui. The work of a top embroidery master is naturally good. This blonde girl has a good taste. Of course, she can also speak Chinese very smoothly: "My master gave it to me."

"I wonder how many pairs of silks like this you have. I want to buy one from you. The embroidery on it is so exquisite."

Hearing this, Shiliu glanced at the silent man beside her. Lan Yu Country now implements a ticket economy and does not allow private transactions. She does not dare to openly challenge national policies.

"Hello, my name is Qiao Hongjun, and I currently work at the Foreign Trade Bureau. As for your transaction with Miss Marilyn, I won't tell anyone about it, so please feel free to rest assured." After that, he stood up and left the carriage.

The name Qiao Hongjun was very similar to Qiao Hongbin. The two might be brothers, but she didn't care too much.

The piece of silk worn by Pomegranate actually belongs to Lu silk. Lu silk is a representative of the heyday of the silk industry in Western Province. Historically, it was as famous as Hang satin and Shu brocade. It was ranked as one of the three famous silks in the Blue Jade Kingdom and is rich in local characteristics. The characteristic traditional silk fabrics were used as royal tributes in the Ming and Qing dynasties and as the main commodity supporting the development of Shanxi merchants. Unfortunately, in the eighth year of Guangxu's reign, Zhang Zhidong, the Prime Minister of Jingzhong, specifically refused Qin's request, and Changzhi stopped paying tribute. From then on, Lu silk disappeared.

"Hello, Ms. Marilyn, my name is Pomegranate. I still have two pieces of Lu silk embroidery like this in my hand. I wonder how you plan to trade them?" In fact, Princess Rui gave her seven pieces at the beginning, but things are rare and valuable. , it’s just right to take out two.

"Can I have a look first?"

"of course can."

The one worn around Pomegranate's neck is embroidered with fiery red roses. The other two are embroidered with butterflies and peonies, both of which are extremely exquisite.

Sure enough, after getting two pieces of silk, Marilyn's eyes lit up a little, and she fell in love with them as soon as she saw them.

"Dear Miss Pomegranate, I like these two items very much. I wonder if you are willing to part with them? If you are willing, I can pay you velvet coins, or if you have something you particularly like, I can also give you something in exchange for it. Exchange.”

Although Mr. Qiao Hongjun said that he would not spread the news, Pomegranate still would not mess around: "As far as I know, the watches of Edelweiss are world-famous. I don't know if you have any idle watches in your hands. I would like to exchange a watch with you." Dai Dai.”

"Dear Miss Pomegranate, you can definitely wear watches from our country with confidence. Look at this watch on my hand. This was my eighteenth birthday gift from my father. It has been many years now, but it Still very accurate.”

The rose gold “Peacock” watch features a cloisonné enamel and pink mother-of-pearl dial. The cloisonné enamel peacock on the dial is made of 60 cm long gold wire, 12 opaque or translucent enamel colors and enamel colors. Rose gold willow-shaped hands, the bezel and lugs are set with 113 diamonds, and the pin buckle is set with 29 diamonds; the satin strap is soft and comfortable to wear; the sapphire crystal transparent cover allows you to appreciate the elegant rhythm of the precision movement. Pomegranate praised: "It is so beautiful. Your father must love you very much, so he gave it to you."

Marilyn became even more happy when she heard this: "My dad really loves me. After he learned that I like to collect watches, he specially helped me get a Henry Graves pocket watch. This pocket watch is really expensive. I also brought it this time. There are quite a few watches, take a look at which two you like better."

Pomegranate's eyes suddenly lit up. What Marilyn meant was to exchange a watch for a pair of silk. This friend could be dealt with. Pomegranate decided to take advantage of the two days on the train to get on well with each other and destroy this "friend" relationship. Really.

In the end, Pomegranate chose a watch of the same style as Marilyn's, and another rose pocket watch. These two watches are Patek Philippe's antique world timepieces. They are matched with beautiful and difficult-to-make cloisonné enamel dials. They are the most popular watches among the nobles of the Edelweiss Kingdom.

Marilyn happily gave Pomegranate a thumbs up: "You are so discerning. The manufacturing process of these two models is definitely the most perfect."

It's hard to imagine that a rural girl from Blue Jade Country would have such a vision, but from her perspective, Miss Pomegranate is definitely not an ordinary country girl, her temperament is too special. Marilyn felt that Pomegranate's temperament was very similar to the royal princess she saw in the Golden Eagle Kingdom, full of nobility.

Pomegranate put on the rose watch directly and put the other one in her backpack (she actually took the opportunity to put it in the system space). Marilyn was generous, and Pomegranate was not stingy either. She took out two handkerchiefs she had embroidered and handed them to Marilyn: "I embroidered these myself and gave them to you. I hope you like them."

"Wow! Your hands are so skillful, and you still have the fragrance..." After praising her passionately for three hundred words, Marilyn carefully put the handkerchief into her bag.

Although Pomegranate was very shy, she was embarrassed by Marilyn's praise and waved her hands repeatedly: "You are too exaggerated. It is not as good as you said."

Women's friendship always comes out of nowhere, not to mention that Pomegranate is still interested in making friends. The relationship between the two has been developing rapidly, and they even exchanged each other's communication methods.

Feeling that time was almost up, Qiao Hongjun came back, but he didn't expect to bump into the two of them chatting in full swing, and the country girl he knew was communicating with Miss Marilyn in fluent English. He knew how arrogant Miss Marilyn was, but he never expected that two people with such different identities would chat like friends.

"Hello Mr. Qiao, there is an educated youth named Qiao Hongbin in our village. I don't know if he is related to you. Your two names are really similar." Shiliu took the lead in greeting Qiao Hongjun.

Qiao Hongjun's eyes flashed: "Well, I have a half-brother named Qiao Hongbin. It is said that he is now in Daqiao Commune below Lin City, Shan Province."

Wow, something happened! It seems that the relationship between the two brothers is not very good. In fact, Shiliu has a general sense of the male protagonist who is being fought over by the two women. In order to find out more gossip information, Shiliu smiled and gossiped about Qiao Hongbin's life in the village.

"This is a normal thing. Qiao Hongbin has been pretending since he was a child. He always behaves politely in front of others, but behind the scenes, his methods are extremely dirty."

Pomegranate cast an encouraging glance at the other party.

The corner of Qiao Hongjun's mouth twitched, but it was difficult for a little girl to hate his younger brother, so naturally he wouldn't mind saying more...
