Upon hearing this, Yan Zi was suddenly shocked, "It's so serious."
"Sister, I don't know yet. I remember that at last year's sorority party, there was a shop called Treasure Pavilion. Because there was no one in the bazaar to promote the inner palace, now you are asking all over the capital, is there still a shop called Treasure Pavilion? Sister, you must not underestimate it."
Chen Qingshui said seriously, "I don't know how much money my sister brought. If I don't buy it now, I'm afraid the price will be higher in the future."
"I didn't expect there would be a charity sale. I only brought ten thousand gold."
"Then don't hurry up and start, but we are about to get the important things like the concubine, the queen, the queen mother, etc."
Yan Zi no longer dared to neglect, and hurriedly raised his cards, chasing the increase all the way, until he won 9,500 gold, and won a silver comb from Consort Su Huifei, which attracted a lot of attention.
Sure enough, the follow-up was "Classic of Filial Piety" handwritten by Consort Chen Guifei, which only fetched six thousand gold. It was not until the queen's royal book that it was too thick that it fetched more than ten thousand gold.
"Unexpectedly, these rich people are stingy this year."
Chen Qingshui muttered.
"It's okay, as long as I don't cause any trouble."
Yan Zi comforted her, thinking that Chen Qingshui was secretly blaming herself.
After the charity sale ended, Yan Zi's bag Major General was empty, so there was little point in staying any longer. I wanted to leave right now. But he listened to Chen Qingshui's advice, "Since sister is here, why bother to go back in a hurry? Even if you don't have any money, just take a look and maybe you can get some useful information for you Zimo Xuan. Don't forget that we are all people in the circle here, and everyone is a source of information. These days, news is wealth. How could sister miss such a good opportunity."
Yan Zi was convinced and stayed patiently.
After the charity sale, there was a small exhibition, displaying the masterpieces of various sects, major training halls, and even the royal family. In other words, it was a product promotion meeting.
There are all kinds of elixirs, blood vessels, cassocks, and ornamental items, all of which are of high quality and priced at a good price.
The two of them walked hand in hand and stopped in front of a crystal booth.
On the crystal table, a pair of emerald-red Kowloon glass lamps were shining brightly, reflecting the surroundings like a rosy sky.
"You two ladies have good eyesight. This pair of Nine Dragon Glazed Lamps is a boutique product launched by me Hundred Refinements Sect this year. It is specially made for female monks. Don't underestimate my pair of glazed lamps. They are carved entirely with Amethyst Jade. When placed on the bedside, they can refresh the mind and help sleep. They are beautiful and pleasing to the eye. They are really the best products to accompany female monks at home. The only drawback is..."
While the eagle-nosed young man in green clothes and white hat was talking non-stop, Yan Zi couldn't help but reach out and touch it. Unexpectedly, he touched it. There was a loud crash and the glass cup broke instantly.
"Yeah!"
The eagle-nosed young man was so startled that he almost jumped up.
Yan Zi was caught off guard, his face flushed, "How much, I will compensate you!"
She didn't understand how the glass cup broke. She just touched it and didn't even have time to exert any force.
"Compensate? Can you afford to pay? This is an exhibit that I, Hundred Refinements Sect, carefully prepared. I only brought this pair with me. Now it is ruined in your hands. What kind of exhibition did you ask me to do? If I lose this opportunity, how much damage will it cause to me, Hundred Refinements Sect? Compensate? What can you compensate me for!"
The eagle-nosed young man turned red with anger.
"Hey, hey, I told you, don't raise the price on your own. A thing that can't even be touched is worth a lot of money. Just tell me how much you have to pay. If you want to blackmail someone, there's no way!"
Chen Qingshui shouted coldly.
"Why, you broke my glass lamp and you still want to default on the bill? Believe it or not, I asked the steward of the Merchant Alliance. I don't believe there is no reason in this world."
The eagle-nosed young man glared angrily.
"Okay, I broke it. I accept compensation. You can tell me how much it will cost!"
Yan Zi doesn't want to make things big, especially if something threatens Zimo Xuan's reputation.
The eagle-nosed young man said, "The price is 80,000 gold. To be honest, my pair of glazed lamps are not worth much. They are worth two thousand gold. But don't forget, this time I Hundred Refinements Sect spent a full 50,000 gold to get a place in the exhibition. This exhibition was just put on display, but you destroyed it. You have to compensate me for this part of the loss."
"Eighty thousand gold?"
Yan Zi Liu frowned slightly, "There are too many, I can't take them out."
If it was only 10,000 to 20,000 gold, she gritted her teeth and could borrow it from Yuan Qinghua, but 80,000 gold was completely beyond her ability to bear.
Indeed, Zimo Xuan is rich, but it is the young master's money, so how can he waste it on himself?
"What!"
The eagle-nosed young man suddenly jumped to his feet, "You are blackmailing, you are a liar, you will not be able to get 80,000 gold. It's a joke. Anyone who can come here is either rich or noble, who can't afford 80,000 gold? If you want to default on the bill, just say so. Don't think I am a fool, don't think I didn't see it. Just now you spent nearly ten thousand gold on a broken comb to flatter the harem, will you have no money?"
"Sister, why do you need to be so familiar with such a villain? Isn't it just 80,000 gold? I'll lend it to you."
Chen Qingshui seems a little impatient.
"Really, thank you sister."
Yan Zi smiled gratefully.
Chen Qingshui said with a smile, "Although we sisters have met for the first time, we hit it off right away. There is no need to say thank you for such a trivial matter. Hehe, to express my gratitude, sister, would you like to tell me what poems Mr. Xu has been studying recently? I am anxious to go back and show off."
Yan Zi suddenly stopped smiling and said seriously, "Who are you and what's the problem with my young master?"
Yan Zi is not stupid. When we first met, Chen Qingshui was naive. Yan Zi was unaware, but he was pure and kind-hearted, but it did not mean that Yan Zi was unwary.
In the previous episode, Chen Qingshui asked about Xu Yi's current situation. She just thought she was a fan of her son's poetry and didn't think much about it.
After that, she spent a far exceeding ordinary price to buy a silver comb from a certain concubine. She also regarded it as Chen Qingshui's kindness.
At this time, the glass cup broke for no reason, and she did not immediately target Chen Qingshui.
Unexpectedly, Chen Qingshui once again asked about his son's current situation. Although his tone was natural, Yan Zi finally became more vigilant.
Thinking back again and again, the intention of Miss Qingchen was too obvious.
"Sister, why are you angry? I guess you haven't seen your young master for a long time."
Chen Qingshui smiled sweetly.
With a swipe of the brush, Yan Zi suddenly changed color. Just as he was about to ask, "How do you know?", he was suddenly startled, and he secretly fell into a trap.
But in the end it was too late.
Chen Qingshui was so proud that he almost laughed out loud and said with a trembling voice, "I finally tried it."
It turns out that Chen Qingshui is none other than the widow of the Shui family, Shui Qingchen.
At that time, Xu Yi and Gao Junmo formed a conspiracy to gather around the Shui family's ancestral home.
When Xu Yi broke into Old Ancestor Shui's secret room, he encountered Shui Qingchen. At that time, Shui Qingchen looted a large number of Old Ancestor Shui's treasures and escaped from the secret passage on a strange fish. Xu Yi could not catch up with him.
After that, Xu Yi was like a mirror, and Shui Qingchen followed. Relying on the lifelong friendship between the Wen family, Shui Qingchen easily entered the Wen family, and was selected by the Wen family master as the concubine of the Wen family master whose blood was stolen by Xu Yi.
