Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The owner of this jewelry shop was a middle-aged man in his forties. He wore a long purple satin shirt, a thin face, yellow and white skin, and a pair of bright eyes full of spirit.
As soon as the boss entered, he laughed loudly. “I’m honored to hear that an honored guest has come to visit.”
This person smiled when he saw others to leave a good impression.
“Boss, you’re too polite.”
Su Qing stood up with a calm expression and returned the bow.
“Please take a seat.”
Xu Yongchang gestured for them to take a seat. He lifted his long robe and sat opposite Su Qing. The smile on his face became even more enthusiastic.
“I heard from the shopkeeper that you have a pearl necklace that you want to sell?”
“I didn’t want to sell it. I came to your shop to buy a jewelry box, but your shopkeeper insisted on buying it.”
Su Qing replied coldly. These businessmen were too hypocritical. They wanted to buy it, but they said that someone else tried to sell it so that they could lower the price.
“Ha, I see!”
Xu Yongchang didn’t expect Su Qing to be so unkind and smiled awkwardly. However, business people knew when to yield. He was a rich man and didn’t need to sell the necklace. It was understandable for him to be a little arrogant. “Then, can I take a look at the necklace?”
Xu Yongchang maintained his composure and smiled at Su Qing. Su Qing casually pushed the necklace in the gold jewelry box to him.
“It’s perfect. May I ask how much you’re selling it for?”
Xu Yongchang’s eyes lit up when he saw the necklace. The shopkeeper had a good eye. This was a high-quality necklace that could only be found by luck.
He didn’t play hard to get anymore. The young Master opposite him wouldn’t fall for it, so he might as well ask for the price, honestly.
“Three thousand taels.”
Gold and Jade were priceless, and pearls were the same. Good pearls were also invaluable. Su Qing extended three fingers.
“Three thousand taels?”
Xu Yongchang was shocked. Su Qing raised her eyebrows and looked at him coldly, “Since the owner thinks it’s expensive, then forget it. I don’t want to sell it anyway.”
Su Qing reached out to take her necklace. Xu Yongchang subconsciously put the necklace on his chest, afraid that Su Qing would take it away.
“What’s wrong? You want to snatch it?”
Su Qing’s face turned cold as she looked at Xu Yongchang sternly. She would buy another batch of goods if this shop were also illegal.
“No, no, we’ll follow young master’s price.”
Seeing that Su Qing was angry, Xu Yongchang quickly smiled and ordered the shopkeeper to get the silver notes.
“I wonder if the young master would like three one thousand silver notes, or would you like them split into smaller denominations?”
The shopkeeper came over to ask Su Qing. He felt this was a young master with a bad temper, so he asked carefully.
“I want all of them at a hundred taels each.”
Su Qing gave it some thought. It was more convenient to spend 100 taels of silver notes. The face value was too significant for ordinary vendors to find, and exchanging them for a handling fee was not worth it.
“Alright, I’ll go and prepare it now. Please have some tea and wait a moment.”
The shopkeeper respectfully agreed and went to prepare the silver notes.
Xu Yongchang felt that Su Qing might have more good stuff, so he smiled and asked,
“I wonder if the young Master has more jewelry like this necklace? If you have it, we’ll take it.”
“There’s nothing else,”
Su Qing shook his head. He had used the best pearls to make this necklace. If he were to make more, it would just be an ordinary necklace.
“Alright, then.”
Xu Yongchang was trying his luck and didn’t expect Su Qing to have it.
Where could he get so many high-quality pearls? In particular, the big pink Pearl was even rarer. It wasn’t easy to find jewelry that could compare to it.
Xu Yongchang continued to chat with Su Qing. He wanted to know where she came from and what she did for a living. Su Qing’s face was cold, and he answered no questions. The conversation quickly fell silent.
Xu Yongchang, who had met countless people, could not do anything to this arrogant young Master, so he sat down and drank tea with him.i
Soon, the shopkeeper brought over 3000 taels of silver notes. Su Qing checked each note. Xiao Qi was busy in the interspace, checking the notes individually. “Master, everything is true.”
Soon, Xiao Qi checked all the banknotes and reported to Su Qing in her cutie pie’s voice.
“Farewell.”
Su Qing put away the silver notes and cupped her hands at Xu Yongchang. She took the money and left without any intention of making small talk.
“Take care, young Master. Please come and visit more often.”
Seeing Su Qing leave, Xu Yongchang felt relieved. It was torturous to accompany this cold and aloof guest.
If he didn’t speak, it would seem like he was treating a guest slowly. If he spoke, he would be ignored. This was uncomfortable!
He didn’t manage to get anything useful out of him, so he didn’t know who this young Master was. What industry? It was too unfathomable. Perhaps the officials and nobles didn’t want their names to be known. After all, they were selling their ancestral items.
After Su Qing left the jewelry shop, she strolled around the streets and bought whatever she saw.
An old man was shaking cotton candy like a cloud in the mountain. Su Qing watched for a while and realized more children were buying cotton candy.
She thought of Xiao Qi in the system. Master was going to buy delicious food for Xiao fatty Qi! Master is so good! Xiao Qi felt Master was thinking about her, so she excitedly somersaulted in the system.
When Su Qing saw Xiao Qi happily somersaulting in the system, she couldn’t help but smile. She didn’t know that her smile had mesmerized a beautiful lady dressed up as a man in the opposite teahouse.
“Whose family does that young master belong to, Xiao Yan ?”
This young lady was Luan Hong from the Zhizhou family. She liked to dress up as a man and come out to play. When tired, she would go to the Bishui teahouse to drink tea. Just as she sat down and looked out the window, she inadvertently saw Su Qing.
Luan Hong looked at Su Qing with infatuation. He was too handsome. His smile was soul-stirring, and his elegant demeanor was too charming.
“I don’t know.”
Xiao Yan leaned against the window and looked carefully for a long time. It was an unfamiliar young master. Xiao Yan retracted her gaze and shook her head at her family’s young Miss.
“I’ve never seen him either.”
Luan Hong had seen many young Masters from noble families. It could be said that she had seen all the young Masters from prestigious families in Luo City. Why had she seen them all?
That was because Luan Hong was her father’s only daughter and was doted on. Everything was according to her personality. Luan Hong had reached the age of marriage and did not want to marry herself casually. It had to be a young master that she liked.
Marriage matters such as Luan Zhizhou’s pampering of his daughter were also up to her daughter to choose from. To make it easier for her to choose, they invited all the young Masters of the right age in the county at home and left a small window upstairs for Luan Hong to choose from.
That was why Luan Hong knew all the young Masters from the prestigious families in Luo City.
“Xiao Yan, go and invite that young master upstairs.”
Luan Hong was a bold girl. Since she had taken a fancy to Su Qing, she wanted to know more about her so her father could send a matchmaker to propose. “Miss, this isn’t good, right?” Xiao Yan looked at her hesitantly.
This was too bold and shocking. If the old Master knew, wouldn’t he deal with her?
“Hurry up; he’s leaving.”
When Luan Hong saw that Su Qing was about to leave, her delicate little face was filled with anxiety as she pushed Xiao Yan, urging her to chase after him quickly.
The Miss pushed out Xiao Yan, so she had no choice but to go and find Su Qing.
Su Qing had just given the cotton candy to Xiao Qi and was about to leave to find Ji Shuisheng and the others. It was almost time to get the customs documents.
“Young Master, take care. My young Master would like to invite you upstairs
for a chat..”
