Chapter 30 How to walk with filthy people

After finally coaxing Cui'er to leave, she turned around and retreated to the shop, took out the jade pendant Chu Jiangnan gave her, and threw it on the counter: "See how much this is worth?"

The things that Prince Nan carried with him must be very valuable, and she was in a hurry to get rid of it now because after she got rid of the jade pendant, she would have nothing to do with Prince Nan.

Anyway, no one recognized anyone in the darkness last night, and now the shopkeeper of the pawn shop probably doesn't recognize himself either. In this case, it's better to get rid of the jade pendant as soon as possible.

The shopkeeper picked up the jade pendant, glanced at it, and then his eyes lit up, and the greedy look at the moment couldn't be stopped.

But he quickly put away his astonishing expression, and when he looked back at Murong Qiqi, there was nothing but peace and no disturbance: "This jade pendant is still worth a little, so I'll give you 500 taels."

"Okay, I'm wrong." Qiqi stretched out her hand, snatched the jade pendant back, turned around and walked outside.

After being stunned for a moment, the shopkeeper quickly walked out of the counter and chased after him: "Girl, why is it wrong? The price is negotiable."

"The shopkeeper doesn't intend to do business with me at all. He just throws me such a ridiculous price. Why should I continue to talk with the shopkeeper? Isn't this a waste of each other's time?" Murong Qiqi seemed really displeased Interested, always wanted to go out the door.

The shopkeeper took two steps forward to stand in front of her, and said with a smile on his face: "Just now, the little one was blind and didn't see the value of the jade pendant. Miss, can you let the little one look at it again, so that the little one can estimate it again?"

Qi Qi raised her eyebrows, looked at him sideways, and a little uncertainty flashed in her eyes: "Are you really sincere in wanting to do business with me?"

"It's natural." The shopkeeper took the jade pendant she handed over with both hands with a smile, and looked at it seriously again. After looking at it for a long time, he straightened his face, looked down at her, and asked, "I don't know what the girl is?" Where did the jade pendant come from?"

"A gift from a friend, why? If you don't like doing this business, I'll go to another pawn shop." She stretched out her hand, wanting to get the jade pendant back.

The shopkeeper took half a step back, obviously unwilling to return the jade pendant to her, and immediately put on a smiley face and apologized: "It's okay, it's okay, the small one is just asking casually, girl, don't mind, the small jade pendant is estimated to be worth 3000 taels , I don't know what the girl wants?"

Murong Qiqi frowned, her face was still not very good-looking.

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment before saying: "4000 taels is the highest price that the small one can offer. If the girl is not willing, the small one has nothing to say."

"5000 taels." Murong Qiqi said lightly, her voice was very calm, as if 5000 taels was nothing to her.

The shopkeeper was hesitant, and after a few minutes of silence, he shook his head and sighed: "The price of 5000 taels is too high. It's not that I don't want to trade with the girl, it's just that this business really can't be done."

Handing the jade pendant back to Qi Qi, he sighed: "Although the jade is a good jade, it's just that it's really not worth the price. Miss, you should take the jade pendant away."

"Buying and selling is not a matter of benevolence and righteousness. I hope to have a chance to cooperate next time." Qiqi really took the jade pendant back, and walked towards the door without any regrets.

In fact, she was a little nervous, and she was just betting on whether the shopkeeper would agree to her price. If not, the jade pendant would be worth 4000 taels of silver. The pawnshop transaction has a bottom line in my heart.

Sure enough, when she just stepped over the steps with one leg and was about to step out the door, the boss's deep voice came from behind: "5000 taels is 5000 taels, don't be fooled this time, girl, 5000 taels, There is no second price."

Qiqi's thin lips curled up, and she smiled with satisfaction, before looking back at him, blinking her beautiful eyes, and said softly: "I have one more condition..."

Walking out of the gate of the pawn shop, I touched the dozen banknotes in my arms, feeling sweet in my heart, I really never thought that a small jade pendant is worth so much money, I'm afraid it's worth far more than 5000 taels.

But a person should always be a little sincere. If you say 5000 taels, it is 5000 taels, which is enough for your own expenses, and you can't be greedy.

There are still a few ambergris in my waist, although the selling price is nothing compared to the 5000 taels, but a small amount is money, and I can't forget how poor I am in my daily life just because I have a lot of money.

So she took three ambergris and walked on the street again, looking for suitable shops along the way.

As for after Murong Qiqi left, a slender figure appeared at the door of the pawn shop, and in a blink of an eye came to the boss.

He was wearing a wide-brimmed hat, if the big hat blocked most of his face, if you don't look carefully, you can't see his face clearly, but judging by the few facial features exposed outside, you can't see it. It's hard to see that he is definitely a good-looking man.

"I want the jade pendant that girl just took." The voice was very calm, but it was extremely cold.

"My...Young master, what does this mean?" The shopkeeper quickly hid the jade pendant in his arms, looked up at him, and said with a smile: "We are a pawn shop here, and we only provide customers with pawn services, and do not sell goods. Sir, please..."

With a "snap", a long sword was placed on the counter. The young man in black slightly tilted the brim of his hat, a pair of cold eyes stared straight at the shopkeeper, his thin lips parted slightly, and two cold words came out. Discourse: "I said I want the jade pendant, and I'll give you 5000 taels. If you want the jade pendant, you choose."

There was another "pop", and the 5000 taels of silver bills landed on the counter.

The shopkeeper was trembling with fright from the long sword, knowing that he couldn't provoke the other party, but he was reluctant.

What is 5000 taels to this priceless jade pendant?This jade pendant can be sold for a high price of 1 taels at least.

"This... this shop is open for business, and we will never do business at a loss, son, you..."

"So I'll give you 5000 taels, don't waste my time." The big palm landed on the scabbard, and the long fingers flicked lightly. With a sound of "clang", more than half of the long sword came out of its scabbard, and the blade suddenly turned cold. cold light.

A murderous aura rushed towards him, and even the shopkeeper who didn't know martial arts was frightened, his heart constricted, and he couldn't even speak clearly.

Hearing the man in black say again in a deep voice: "As long as my sword is out of its sheath, it will never return to its sheath until it sees blood. It's your life or I want the 5000 taels of silver to be yours. Anyway, I am determined to get this jade pendant."

The shopkeeper was so frightened that it was difficult to breathe, and he wanted to open his mouth to call for help, but he didn't dare. Although the law and order in the imperial city was good, and he was threatened by people in broad daylight, as long as he called, someone from the government might come in immediately.

But he was very afraid, fearing that before the official came, the sword would have cut his neck.

The man in black in front of him had a cold and silent aura, and this aura alone was enough to make people timid.

He hesitated, but finally took out the jade pendant from his bosom, handed it to him respectfully with both hands, and said in a trembling voice: "Master...Master, this jade pendant belongs to you."

The man in black snorted coldly, raised his long finger again, and Sun Jian returned the long sword to its sheath.

The shopkeeper only felt a figure flash in front of him, the flash was too fast, and the cold aura forced him to close his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, where was the figure of the man in black in front of him?Together with the jade pendant in his hand, it has long since disappeared.

On the counter, there was the 5000 taels of silver note he had left behind.

All this happened in the blink of an eye, so quickly, it was completely overwhelming.

Holding the 5000 taels, he sighed softly, thinking that he was just having a daydream, and he never dared to think about this jade pendant again.

As the saying goes, it's not that enemies don't get together.

Murong Qiqi also didn't expect that the imperial city looks so big, but it's actually so small, no, you can still meet enemies in the street.

With just a glance, she turned around, intending to walk away.

It's not because I'm scared, it's just that I'm really bored and don't want to waste time with these people.

However, it is obvious that some people can't see her having a good time, and it is rare to meet her, how can they let her go easily?
"What a coincidence, I actually met the Seventh Sister here." A charming and soft voice, like a yellow hawk coming out of the valley, disturbed the hearts and souls of many men, and it didn't take much to know that it came from her Sixth Sister, "Seventh Sister won't You also want to see the new batch of jadeite from Cuifangzhai, right?"

Qi Qi paused, looked back and smiled at her, and said lightly: "No, I just walked around casually, I still..."

Before the word "something" could come out, Chu Mingzhu who was beside Murong Susu sneered and said: "Since we are here, why not go together, it seems that this princess has never been to Cuifangzhai with Seventh Princess. "

She raised her haughty chin, and immediately two court ladies who didn't look very strong but were definitely not weak in martial arts came to Qiqi's side, one on the left and one on the right. It was obvious that Princess Mingzhu didn't intend to let her go.

Qiqi had no choice but to smile and said: "Since the third princess Jin Yan invited me, how could I miss it? Let's go and see it with the princess and sister Huang."

She has already been dispatched to a master, and if she doesn't want to go in, she probably won't succeed, but seeing that she is plainly dressed and poor, she wants to find a chance to embarrass her, how can she not understand these boring little tricks of golden branches and jade leaves?
Murong Susu was enthusiastic, and kept urging Qi Qi to walk with them into Cui Fang Zhai.

To Qiqi's surprise, there are actually two heavyweights in Cuifangzhai. Lord Yun seems to be very busy recently. A new batch of emeralds arrived.

Seeing Murong Qiqi, who was dressed in plain clothes and dressed like a maidservant, entered the door together with Mingzhu and Susu, Concubine Yi narrowed her cloud eyes slightly, and a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes.

Looking at the three girls who came up to her to say hello, her eyes finally fell on Chu Mingzhu, her expression was serious, and there was a bit of blame in her Chinese: "Mingzhu, you are a real golden branch and jade leaf, with a noble status, and you are How can a pure and pure girl walk with those filthy girls who are not clean and morally corrupt?"
