Chapter 23: The first encounter with another world 03
The waiter saw that this guest was holding a golden fan and hanging a transparent and magnificent jade pendant on his waist. He must be a noble man who is not rich but noble.
"Sir, please take a seat." The waiter quickly welcomed the guest to the main seat and ordered the boy to serve tea.
Yi Shuihan didn't miss the look on the guy's face just now. The golden fan in her hand didn't belong to her at any time, the jade pendant around her waist was Rongzhi, and even the clothes she wore didn't cost her money. To put it bluntly,
Now she is very poor and cannot afford the treasures here, so she can only use some unconventional means to get them.
After a while, tea was served, but Yi Shuihan had no intention of drinking it. She didn't want to take off her mask and frighten people by showing her face.
"Are there any tough threads?"[
"Yes, yes, I wonder how tough the young master must be?"
"The toughest one can even be cut with a knife, but it must be as thin as a hair, and it must be flexible enough."
When the waiter heard this, he realized that he had never heard of such a treasure. He was just an apprentice. He knew that he was not the only apprentice to be responsible for this treasure, so he sent the boy to ask the shopkeeper.
After a while, the shopkeeper came. This shopkeeper was a man in his forties or fifties. He had a resolute face and a calm aura. He must be a man who is used to troubles.
The shopkeeper glanced at Yi Shuihan lightly and said, "I wonder what the young master would do with such silk thread?"
Yi Shuihan smiled lazily and said, "I'm here to buy something. Do I need to get your approval from the shopkeeper for what I buy?"
The shopkeeper's face changed slightly: "Young master, you don't know something. Every item on the fifth floor of my building needs to know what the person who buys it will do with it."
"If I said it was used as a fishing line for fishing, would you believe it, shopkeeper?"
"Whether the young master is for fishing, Yue Shangstairs will definitely find out."
"After I buy it, Yue Shangshang will still follow me. If I don't use it for fishing, but for my wife to make needlework, will Yue Shangshang take back the things that have been sold?"
Hearing this, the shopkeeper's originally resolute face became a little stiff, and his sharp eyes fell on the other party. He was such an eloquent boy.
Yi Shuihan still looked calm and relaxed in the face of such a sharp gaze. Apart from immortals, who had she not seen before?
"It's useless to say more. Why don't you let me see the treasure that Yueshang upstairs has first? If that's not what I want, it's all in vain."
When the shopkeeper saw that the other party was walking down the steps to him, he waved and said to the subordinate beside him: "Go to the fifth floor and get the silkworm silk."
After a while, the subordinate brought out a silver brocade box.
The shopkeeper opened the brocade box and asked, "Is it what the young master wants?"
What is that transparent silk thread as thin as hair called Celestial Silk? Yi Shuihan doubted its toughness. There was no nanotechnology here, so she didn't quite believe it.
"Can you let me try its toughness?"
Hearing this, the shopkeeper frowned slightly. The tenacity of Tian's silk is recognized by the world. The other person who asked this question was doubting the authenticity of Tian's silk. Will he sell fakes when he goes upstairs? I'm afraid no one in the world will believe it. [
But the shopkeeper still nodded slightly and said: "Okay."
Yi Shuihan picked up the silkworm silk and weighed it. It was as light as hair. She glanced around the lobby, looking for items to test the toughness of silkworm silk. Finally, her eyes were fixed on the square stone pillar in the lobby.
