Everyone was curious about what kind of treasure was hidden in the big box with gold lacquer patterns, and you must know that the silver vault of the Xiqiao Pavilion was burned down, and even the silver spent on weekdays was melted into silver, and finally sent to the government to weigh and record the weight in the book before exchanging some silver taels for use.Li Haitang pointed to the huge black lacquer and gold box and said, "This is a congratulatory gift for Patriarch Mo and Mrs.
Mo.Thank you for your good deeds and virtue in bringing the abandoned child back to the house to be raised, and his parents will feel guilty and blame themselves if they know about it.Patriarch Mo and Mrs.
Mo are the role models of the Eight Great Clans, and this generous gift is the heart of me and the people of the Eight Great Clans, and I hope to accept it with a smile. ”Patriarch Mo stood up excitedly and saluted: "The Eight Great Clans of Fengxian Daughter Fuze are virtuous, affectionate and righteous, and they are the models of the Eight Great Clan Chiefs.The old man is beyond his reach and ashamed of himself. ”"Oh, Patriarch Mo is too humble.Have a seat!
Have a seat!
”Li Haitang waved his hand, and the handkerchief flew with the gesture, which reminded the patriarchs present of the flattery when the old bustard of Baifanglou greeted the distinguished guests.Wu Yinling saluted, and went out with the old butler, and the little servants who carried the boxes also hurriedly followed."
It's ......
Why?
”Seeing that the little girl who led the person to carry the box turned around and left, Patriarch Mo was dissatisfied but not easy to pick and choose.can only pretend to be puzzled and remind Haitang that this black girl is too unruly.Li Haitang ignored Patriarch Mo's displeasure and explained with a smile: "The 100-day gift I gave to the little prince hasn't been brought in yet, Patriarch Mo will wait a moment." ”As soon as he heard that there was a big gift, Patriarch Mo laughed loudly, and said "Okay, good" three times in a row, almost bringing out laughter.Wu Yinling carried a slightly smaller vermilion lacquer painted gold box, although it was seen that the box was slightly worn, but the Mo patriarch still liked it tightly, because ......
"The gold phoenix pattern on this box does not seem to be used by the people, just look at the colorful phoenix, the phoenix eye is actually made of rare green opal in the Western Regions, and now it is also valuable in the gem shop in the capital." ”Patriarch Yan also liked it, and squatted in front of the big box to carefully observe this green opal of the Western Regions.He had recently asked a craftsman to make a screen, and he had collected many rare gems at great expense to decorate it, except for a green opal."
It seems that Patriarch Yan is very knowledgeable."
Li Haitang smiled skillfully, pointed to the two large black and gold boxes on the ground, and said: "These two boxes were given to him by an old friend who forgot his years when Ling Ye was doing business from the capital in his early years.said that after the canonization ceremony of his sister-in-law, he ordered his sister-in-law to send the two big boxes used in the boudoir home and give them to the mother-in-law of the high hall as something to miss. ”"It's so precious.Lord Ling is willing to give his love to his daughter, and his daughter will give it to my ignorant son, which ......
This......
This ......"
Patriarch Mo had mixed feelings, knelt down and kowtowed, and said with tears: "The old man is terrified!"
The old man is terrified!
”"What is Patriarch Mo afraid of, these two big boxes should only be kept for future generations as heirlooms, may Patriarch Mo be loyal forever to thank the emperor for his grace!""
Yes, yes, the old man will take these two things as family heirlooms, and remind future generations to be loyal to the monarch and serve the country, and not to mislead the country and overthrow the country."
Patriarch Mo saw the two big boxes, and his face was full of spring breeze and pride.Patriarch Yan reluctantly watched as the old housekeeper personally led the servants to carry them to the silver vault, thinking about whether he could discuss with Patriarch Mo if he could replace this green opal with emeralds?"
I heard that Patriarch Yan asked the craftsman to make a screen, when will I be able to see it with my own eyes?"
Li Haitang picked up the teacup and took a sip of warm tea to moisten his throat, and looked at Patriarch Yan who was squatting on the ground with a lost face."
Feng Xian's daughter has lived in the Xian Pavilion for a long time and has not gone out, but her ears are so sensitive."
Patriarch Yan joked, sat back in the chair and pounded his numb legs, sighing helplessly."
Last month, I happened to get a picture of a hundred beasts drawn by the wordless son of Huajian Building, and I liked it very much.Thinking that it was not appropriate to hide the painting in the painting box, he handed it over to his own ten embroidery girls who were skilled in embroidery day and night to work day and night for a full fifteen days to complete. ”"I see, no wonder Patriarch Yan is drooling as he stares at that green opal."
Li Haitang laughed and teased, and told Patriarch Mo: "Patriarch Mo must send someone to guard the big box, what if Patriarch Yan doesn't sleep at night and climbs the wall and jumps in, and picks it away with a knife?"
”Patriarch Yan scolded in a gloomy manner: "Nonsense, when did I ever climb the wall?"
That green opal is not a unique treasure in the world, I can't find anything else?
”"Oh, it turns out that Patriarch Yan doesn't want it.Then I will keep the green opal I asked for from Ling Ye privately, anyway, Patriarch Yan is not short of silver and is not in a hurry. ”Li Haitang patted the goldfish purse on his waist, causing the patriarchs to gradually show greedy eyes.Patriarch Yan was so excited that he stood up and strode in front of her, stretching out his hand: "Take it." ”"Ouch, Patriarch Yan is so shameless, can he take it by force in front of all the patriarchs?"
Li Haitang pretended to be stingy and tilted her body to cover her purse, and raised her little face to face Patriarch Yan defiantly, "You have money, I have a baby, let's talk about a good price." ”Patriarch Yan couldn't laugh or cry, withdrew his hand and took a step back, saying, "Okay, how much do you want?"
”"Humph!
A lot of money, I'm afraid you won't be willing to give. ”Li Haitang clutched the goldfish purse tightly, as if she was afraid that the green opal inside would give birth to long legs and jump out.Patriarch Mo smiled and said, "With us as witnesses, how can Patriarch Yan be cheating."
As long as the price offered by Feng Xiannu is reasonable, this deal will definitely be done. ”"Okay."
Li Haitang untied the goldfish purse and put it on the table, took out a pigeon egg carved from jade inside, and said, "The green opal is inside the jade egg, and this jade egg mechanism is very ingenious."
If Patriarch Yan can take out the green opal without destroying the jade egg, I won't accept a penny; If it cannot be taken out, the price of 100,000 taels of gold will not be negotiated. ”"A green opal can be worth 100,000 taels of gold, are you a fool to me?"
Patriarch Yan roared in shame, if there were no patriarchs here, he would have strangled this stinky girl who was asking for a lot of money earlier.Li Haitang put the jade egg in the palm of his hand, flattened his palm and raised it in front of Patriarch Yan, "Brother Huan often talks about Patriarch Yan is a gemstone expert, I dare to ask Patriarch Yan to come and see how much this jade egg can be worth?"
”Patriarch Yan said disdainfully: "A piece of pigeon egg carved from jade can be worth a few dollars, I can see it at a glance......
This is ......"
"Hehehe, it seems that Patriarch Yan recognizes it." ”Li Haitang held the jade egg in his palm and asked, "Does Patriarch Yan think that the green opal inside is worth 100,000 taels of gold?"
”Patriarch Yan hesitated a little and said, "One hundred thousand taels of gold, jade eggs and opal inside." ”"200,000 taels of gold, I will even open the method of opening the jade egg mechanism with both hands.""
Deal!"
Patriarch Yan was angry and loud, and all the patriarchs present were dumbfounded, especially the Patriarch Wu and Patriarch Dian.How could such two inconspicuous little things sell for 200,000 taels of gold?
What a surprise!
It's crazy!
