Chapter 522: High-spirited (two-in-one, asking for monthly votes)(3/3)
Khan Amma’s bad temper was not just for him!
This is only fair, the palms and backs of the hands are all meat!
He smiled and said: "I guessed half of it right. It is indeed related to the Ji family, but it is not the Lake Stone Field, but the 'Wanbao Pavilion'!"
As he spoke, he recounted what the emperor's father had said when he questioned the third elder brother and what he had said in defense of the third elder brother.
After hearing this, Shu Shu felt that Third Brother was a little unjust.
Ji's family is the richest family, and a big tree attracts people.
The accounts of these seven or eight people are wrong, which adds up to a lot of money. This is not the decision of the young master's family, it should be the intention of the head of the Ji family.
Spend money to buy peace.
It also means taking advantage of the east wind and enjoying the shade under the big trees.
The third elder brother, the dignified prince, has always been flattered by others, so he probably didn't take him seriously.
With his status, this also gives the Ji family an opportunity.
Otherwise, if other merchants wanted to show filial piety, they would not be able to show filial piety to him.
Brother Jiu said with disdain: "You still claim to be good at studying, but you don't even want a face. If you want to talk about other foreign goods, such as desk clocks, pocket watches, etc., the price can be vague, so just accept it. For a layman,
I don’t know how much the purchase price was, but those three big gold bracelets weighed ten taels of gold and were bought for thirty taels of silver each. Isn’t this shabby?!”
Shu Shu thought of her big gold bracelet. Because she insisted on paying 80% of the selling price, that one piece cost two hundred and eighty taels of silver.
That's because the main diamond in the middle is larger.
Others are inlaid with pearls, garnets and amethysts.
The pearl was not big, and the color of the garnet was ordinary. However, the amethyst was also large, and the purple color was richer. The price was fifty taels more expensive than her diamond one, which was a full four hundred taels.
The purchase price was just over two hundred taels.
It was indeed shameless to take down thirty taels.
It's better not to spend any money at all and it can still be regarded as filial piety.
If you take advantage of it in this way, it would be too much to pretend that you haven't taken advantage of it.
Thinking that the fifth elder brother and his wife also went to "Wanbao Pavilion" with the third elder brother and his wife yesterday, Shu Shu hurriedly said: "The fifth elder brother and fifth sister-in-law are not involved, right?"
Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "This time, Sister-in-law Five was outstanding. She noticed that the price was wrong, so she reminded Brother Five when she returned, and Brother Five asked someone to send money back to make up for it."
Shu Shu was relieved.
Brother Jiu gloated: "Not only was the third child embarrassed this time, he was also fined a year's salary, and the two thousand taels he was rewarded yesterday was also taken back!"
Shu Shu couldn't help but laugh.
She could still imagine the angry look on the third elder brother's face. It was obviously to save a few money, but in the end he suffered a big loss.
Her guess was indeed correct. On Concubine Rong's ship, in the cabin of Third Prince and his wife, the couple were having a fierce fight with each other.
The third elder brother pointed at San Fujin and said angrily: "I have been putting on makeup and powder all day long, but I don't have the style of my direct descendant Fujin. Look at other people, and then look at yourself. You are so stupid. I am so stupid."
It's bad luck, I pointed you to Fujin!"
The third elder brother was so embarrassed that he came back feeling angry, but he saw San Fujin sitting in front of the makeup mirror, wiping the perfume one by one and smelling it.
San Fujin turned his head, also unhappy, and said: "Where did this evil fire come from? Whoever provokes me, I will talk to whomever I want to talk to!"
The third elder brother said angrily: "There is no one else except you, a prodigal woman!"
As he said that, he saw several brocade boxes placed in front of the dressing table, which were the three Western bracelets from "Wanbao Pavilion".
What's this?
This is proof!
Twelve taels of gold each?
Because it was a woman's thing, he didn't pay attention at all at the time, and he didn't know how many taels of gold it was.
He took two steps forward, took out a box, opened it, and saw a rich purple color.
Purple is expensive.
His expression changed, and he picked up the bracelet. It was a flat bracelet. It looked thick and clumsy, but it felt really heavy when he put it in his hand.
Twelve taels of gold!
He glared at San Fujin, gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't pay attention at the time and didn't know the weight of this bracelet. You already got it, don't you know?"
San Fujin said unhappily: "I'm not a scale, how can I know its weight?"
The third elder brother sneered, but he came over suspiciously, looked at San Fuji and said: "When did you ever look at such a thick thing? On weekdays, it's not that the bracelet is heavy, but you only wear filigree ones, and you feel that your wrists are sore for two taels.
, can you look at this?"
San Fujin licked his temples and said with pride: "Isn't this because I picked up a big leak because others didn't know the goods? This circle is full of amethysts, the size of the thumb cap, and it is still the same color. I will pick it off later."
, with some beads, you can decorate your head and face!"
Shu Shu really has no discernment. Instead of choosing such a good thing, she chose diamond. It looks like big glass. What's the benefit?
Nowadays, all kinds of gemstones are focused on color.
The third elder brother raised the bracelet and wanted to throw it to the ground.
Just pick it up, this is 4,500 taels of silver!
Re-hiring a new direct descendant, Fujin, wouldn't even cost that much money!
But this heavy feeling.
This rich purple.
This is a rare good thing.
It can be worth a few hundred taels.
Third Brother put down his hand again and picked up the other two boxes.
The one inlaid with pearls, the beads are not big, just slightly larger than the rice beads, but these are pink pearls.
It's all pink all around.
Looking at the remaining one, it is inlaid with "Ziyawu", and the color is also the most gorgeous burgundy among "Ziyawu".
The jewels from these three bracelets were removed, and they were inlaid with craftsmen from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They were then put on consignment at some silver shop, and each item was worth several hundred taels of silver.
The third brother felt more comfortable and hugged all three boxes.
"What are you going to do?"
San Fujin stood up and stopped, "Where are you going to get this?"
The third elder brother sneered: "I can take the money wherever I like!"

I didn't dare to stop because I was afraid that if I did, the third chapter would be delayed again as soon as I took a break. Good night everyone, ^_^.
Chapter completed!
