Feng Yu Heng recalled that when Lu Yao had married into the Yao manor, there had been a procession on the day of the wedding. According to the rules, the procession did not enter the manor. They only watched as Yao Shu helped the bride out of the sedan before returning. Only the bride's maidservant remained. At that time, she had taken a few more glances and had seen a few maidservants in the procession. Now that she looked at that person, it seemed that she could find the origin of that person in the procession.
"Someone from the Lu Family." She rubbed her chin and said to Xuan Tianming: "I seem to have seen that maidservant before. She was in the procession of the Lu Family."
The Lu Family coming to buy accessories was a normal thing, but Xuan Tianming was puzzled, "You said that she has a hidden illness? What hidden illness? I have never heard of any young miss from the Lu Family having a hidden illness. "
Feng Yu Heng laughed at his stupidity, "If everyone knew about it, how could it still be considered a hidden illness."
Xuan Tianming shrugged, "But going out like this, are you not afraid of others finding out?"
She thought for a bit then said: "Perhaps she was in a rush to look at the accessories. Also, she was wearing a veil. Also, I was the only one who could smell it. Other people would just think that she had put on too much low-quality rouge."
Xuan Tianming was a little interested, "The hidden illness that you speak of, what is it? What illness? "
Feng Yu Heng thought for a bit, "Armpit odor. You guys also call it body odor. When the imperial concubines are chosen, whether or not they have this illness is a standard. I have heard that many of the people who are chosen because of this illness have a hard time getting married. After all, nobody wants to marry a wife with body odor. Our Dashun court has not chosen anyone to enter the palace for many years. That young miss from the Lu Family does not need to worry about this. It's just … I don't know which young lady from the Lu Family it is. "She nudged Xuan Tianming with her elbow." How many young ladies are there in the Lu Family? "
Xuan Tianming thought for a moment, then said, "I think there are three. The eldest miss is a concubine's daughter, and the other two are legitimate misses, but they don't have the same mother. The current Madam of Lu Manor is the second wife. "
As they spoke, Qing Yu had already come out of the Nirvana Pavilion to greet them. She bowed to them as soon as she saw them, and then she said, "The smell is getting rid of inside. Your Highness and Young Miss, please wait for a moment before entering." As she spoke, she looked around the street, but the girl in the peach dress had already walked far away. Qing Yu frowned and said, "I don't know which family's young miss is from. She doesn't look like she's lacking in money, but that makeup she's wearing is really too frightening! My throat hurts from the choking. "
Feng Yu Heng asked her, "Did she order any jewelry?"
Qing Yu nodded and said, "She ordered two sets of head ornaments, both of which are made of precious materials. Other than the deposit, she also paid for most of the materials according to our store's rules. She's really generous."
"En." Feng Yu Heng thought for a moment, then said, "That young miss has a hidden illness, so you don't need to mind it too much. She's a guest, so you should serve her well. At worst, the next time she comes, arrange for her to stay in a private room. It's fine as long as she doesn't affect other business. "
Qing Yu agreed. At this time, a waiter came forward and said that the smell inside had already dissipated, and invited them in to sit. Qing Yu then told Feng Yu Heng, "The jade mine sent a lot of stones, all of which are of the highest quality. Young Miss, go upstairs and take a look, see if there's anything you like. If you want it, you can take it and let Craftsman Bai make jewelry for you. This servant thinks that those materials are really beautiful."
In the end, Feng Yu Heng was a girl. When she heard that there were good materials, she happily ran upstairs.
Xuan Tianming had a bitter smile on his face, but he also followed upstairs. Feng Yu Heng had told him that the standard of a good man was that when a woman went shopping, he had to wait, and when a woman spent money, he had to be willing to spend. He agreed with the second rule, but when it came to shopping, he had to wait, which tested a person's endurance.
But he was still happy to accompany his wife. After all, this wife of his was very satisfying, very satisfying. The two would not get tired of being together. Feng Yu Heng was even more like a moving treasure trove. She also had a mysterious space that she could carry around with her. This caused Xuan Tian Ming to feel even more amazed.
The group went all the way to the third floor, and Qing Yu took out a box of jade materials from the storeroom. They did not enter a private room, but sat on the chairs in the hall of the third floor. When the box of jade materials was opened in front of her, even Feng Yu Heng, who was used to seeing jewelry in the future, could not help but exclaim, "Too beautiful!"
The white jade was flawless, and the texture was warm, as if it had a spirit. When people touched it, they felt as if they were holding the hand of someone who was connected to their heart. There was no strange feeling at all, and they did not want to let go, wanting to continue to communicate with it.
She was surprised and looked at Xuan Tianming, saying, "This jade has become a spirit."
Of course, jade could not become a spirit, but Xuan Tianming knew what she meant, so he told her, "This is the value of a good jade. Why else would it be said that the jade chooses the person, and the person also chooses the jade? Once you choose the other, you have to use the person to nourish the jade, and then use the jade to nourish the person. Only by complementing each other can the jade become more beautiful, and the person become more popular. "
He also reached out to touch the jade, and his mood was immediately caught, but he was not as surprised as Feng Yu Heng. He only said, "This is indeed good jade, and is hard to find even in a thousand years." After saying this, he asked Qing Yu, "How many pieces of jade of the same quality were sent?"
Qing Yu replied, "Not many, just this box, and it was picked out by the master. However, the other pieces of jade are also very good. Although they are not as good as these pieces, they are still of the highest quality in the store, and definitely not worse than the pieces sent to the palace in the past. "
Feng Yu Heng was very happy when she heard this, and she held a large piece of jade in her hand, sighing, "How much will this sell for?"
"Young miss, it is hard to find even with a thousand gold." Qing Yu smiled, "Can you not think about how much it will sell for? These pieces of jade were specially set aside for young miss. If you make them into jewelry or carve them into ornaments, it would be better than selling them to others. "
Xuan Tianming also nodded and said, "That's right, how can you be short of money? It is only good things that are hard to come by. If you sell these, it is very likely that you won't be able to get such good jade again. "
Feng Yu Heng was very distressed, "If I make them into jewelry, I usually don't wear jewelry. You see, I am wearing a lot of things on my head today, and that is because I went to the Seventh Brother's banquet last night. However, there are only a few occasions in a year where I need to wear jewelry! Besides, the things in my residence are also not bad. "
Xuan Tianming was very puzzled. Was this girl a woman or not? He dared to guarantee that if it were any other woman, their eyes would stare blankly at such good things. Not to mention that it was originally given to them, even if it was not given to them, they would do everything in their power to get their hands on it. There were also some people who would do anything to obtain good things. Why was it that when it came to his wife, she would push away the things that were given to her?
Well, he did not forget what this girl meant by pushing it away. She wanted to sell it for money. "Just how much money do you need?"
Feng Yu Heng rolled her eyes, "Is there anyone who thinks that they have too much money?" After saying this, she asked Qing Yu, "Don't worry about whether I will keep it or not. Just give me an estimate of the value of this box of jade. How much is it worth?"
Qing Yu was very troubled, but when she saw Xuan Tianming helplessly nod his head, she said, "The value is very difficult to estimate. Because generally, very few people directly buy the raw materials. It needs to be matched with the craftsmanship. It needs to be polished and carved before it can be sold for a good price. And during the production process, the craftsmanship of the craftsman is also one of the criteria to measure the value. For example, if Craftsman Bai is the one who makes it, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it is priceless. "
Xuan Tianming picked up where she left off: "Such a good thing, in this world, aside from craftsman Bai, there is not a single person that can touch it."
"Then it would be too valuable." Even Qing Yu sighed, "This servant is unable to estimate it. I really am unable to estimate it."
Feng Yu Heng pondered a little then asked: "Compared to the five million taels of gold that Qian Zhou compensated me with?"
Xuan Tianming replied for her: "Just these raw materials are far more valuable than the gold."
Bang!
Feng Yu Heng decisively closed the box, "Put it away. Put it away properly. Nobody is allowed to touch a single piece."
Qing Yu helplessly said: "Young miss, you made your own jewelry."
Xuan Tianming also advised: "We really are not lacking in this bit of money. How much gold and silver do you want, I will give it to you."
"Won't your future also be mine?" Feng Yu Heng raised an eyebrow, "Is there any point in moving things around? This thing needs to be properly taken care of for me. In the future, if there is to be a scam, it will be a scam from an outsider. Just watch, if the scam is done well, a small country will be created. "
Xuan Tianming was deeply impressed by her ability to scam money, thus he held the box in his lap: "I will personally take care of it for you."
Feng Yu Heng was very satisfied.
While they were speaking, the shop's clerk led another guest up to the third floor. It was an imperial concubine in her early thirties. She was on the thin side and dressed very delicately. She wore an emerald green Autumn dress and looked very noble and elegant.
When Qing Yu saw that it was a big customer who came up to the third floor, she hurriedly excused herself from Feng Yu Heng and personally went to receive her. Speaking of Feng Yu Heng, this was the first time she had sat in this jewelry shop for a while. Seeing Qing Yu receive a guest, she felt that it was a novelty, so she simply sat and watched for a while. Coincidentally, the imperial concubine also opened her mouth to say something, but she heard the other party say: "My family and I came all the way from the south. Because the journey was long, we did not bring many valuable items. But I did not expect that we would be in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet, so I could only come here temporarily to save an emergency. Take out your best items for me to choose from. The price is not a problem. "
When Qing Yu heard that she was qualified to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet, she subconsciously looked towards Feng Yu Heng. Feng Yu Heng also asked Xuan Tianming in a low voice: "Which official's wife is it? Do you recognize her? "
Xuan Tianming smiled bitterly, "Even if I recognize the official's wife, it's impossible for me to recognize her family's womenfolk."
She thought about it and shook her head towards Qing Yu. Qing Yu was already enthusiastically greeting them.
When a clerk brought out a box of finished jewelry, she heard Qing Yu say: "These are all made by the shop's skilled craftsmen. Of course, madam can choose not to choose the finished product and only choose the materials, then have someone make it according to the style you like. We have jade materials, crystal materials, and even gold materials here. The quality varies from low to high, but the highest quality is the same as the ones sent to the palace. " While introducing, she said: "However, if madam wants to wear it at the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet, I'm afraid it will be too late to make it now. Madam might as well choose from these head ornaments that we have already made. Because of the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet, our Nirvana Pavilion has also made preparations in advance. We have specially made a lot of new head ornaments for everyone's madams and young misses to choose from."
Qing Yu was good at doing business and her words were also on point. However, the refined and elegant woman looked at the things in front of her and shook her head with a look of disgust. "Not good, not good. Everyone says that this is the best jewelry shop in the capital, but looking at these things, they are only so-so. If you only have this kind of quality, how can you be called the best in the capital? "
