Extra Story Chapter 078

All the furnishings on his ship were brought from the palace.

This set is priceless in Hongwu Kingdom and even in Da Chu.

But if it were to be sold here, those people would not be able to sell it at a good price if they did not know the goods.

Besides, there is no reason to sell the things he uses for money. If this spreads back to the Hongwu Kingdom, will he be shameless?

Thinking of this, Emperor Dexuan motioned to his father-in-law to step forward and clear the way for him.

He had to see with his own eyes what the rough stones that Ni chose for him could produce.

Seeing that Emperor Dexuan left without saying anything, Yan Shiqing and Chu Ximo followed closely behind them and squeezed all the way to the front.

The little boy had sharp eyes. When he saw her, he squeezed over. He walked to the other side and imitated Chu Ximo, reaching out to protect her. Then he whispered: "Princess, we have already arrived at the stone that Wen Xiu selected. We will be there soon."

Slaves, but Aunt Ni’s choice hasn’t been opened yet.”

Yan Shiqing glanced at the rough stone that the stone cutter was cutting. When she saw that she didn't see anything after cutting it with the knife, she turned her head and replied, "Has the Yining selection been opened?"

Xiaowa nodded: "It's open, there's nothing."

Yan Shiqing looked at Chen Yining after hearing this, and saw that her face was as usual, without the slightest hint of loss or sadness, and she felt a little relieved.

She was really afraid that they would calculate these gains and losses!

While Yan Shiqing was chatting with Xiaowa, Wenxiu's rough stone also came out.

The rough stone had been cut into several pieces, but there was nothing inside. All this seemed to be expected by Emperor Dexuan, but it was also unexpected.

Just when he thought it was finally Ni's turn to choose the piece, he saw the stone cutter cutting the edge of one of the pieces.

Soon I saw a little green showing on the edge.

"Young lady, I have to bring something out!"

At this moment, Wenxiu's slightly surprised voice was heard.

For her, no matter whether the product is good or not, or how big it is, she has earned it.

She just bought it for fun, and she didn't expect there would be any surprises.

Chen Yining was also happy for her, nodded and said with a smile: "Wenxiu, you are so lucky!"

Wenxiu stared at the stone he had chosen. When he heard this, the smile on his face became brighter: "After all are opened, no matter whether it is good or not, I will make you an earring for the young lady!"

It would be better if I could make two pairs of earrings.

Regardless of whether this thing is good or not, it is not cheap in Hongwu Kingdom or Dachu.

"Okay, then I'll be waiting for your earrings!"

Chen Yining responded with a smile and looked at Jade, who had gradually revealed his full face.

The jade stone is green and white, and the texture looks a bit rough. You can tell at a glance that it is not very good.

But no matter what, it was a good sign, which made Wenxiu very satisfied.

"Wenxiu, this is jadeite grown from coarse beans. It's not very good. Do you plan to sell it or just take it away?"

Although Mrs. Ni heard the conversation between Wenxiu and Chen Yining, she still couldn't help but ask.

"Aunt Ni, I don't want to sell this slave. I plan to find someone to learn how to polish it and make two pairs of earrings. It should be enough to make two pairs of earrings, right?"

She said, feeling a little unsure.

The jade was not very big, and she didn't know how much polishing would take. yyls

"It's almost okay. Since you want to take it back, just keep it!"

As Ni said this, she asked the translator beside her to speak to the master who cut the stone, and then took the jade stone to Wenxiu and asked her to put it away.

Emperor Dexuan on the side did not pay much attention to the worthless piece of Wenxiu. All his attention was now focused on the stone that was about to be opened.

The stone was marked, obviously chosen by Mr. Ni for him.

Ni glanced at the translator, then walked to the front with him, and was whispering something to the stone cutter, while gesturing with the jade stone with his hands.

After seeing the stone-cutting master look at her in surprise and then nodding, she took a few steps back and stood still.

Emperor Dexuan held his breath and stared at the rough stone.

Soon he discovered that a relatively large piece of rough stone had been cut off by more than 30% (one-third) on the left and right sides. However, with these two cuts, the two sides and the middle piece that fell were not exposed at all as he expected.

Good things are coming.

For a moment, his hands hidden in his sleeves clenched into fists, and veins bulged on his forehead, obviously suppressing his anger.

When his father-in-law, who had been paying attention to him, saw this, his heart instantly rose, fearing that he would do something out of control in anger.

At this moment, Mr. Ni stepped forward and looked at the stones, then pointed at one of them and made gestures with his hand again.

Yan Shiqing has always believed in Mr. Ni. When Mr. Ni first came up to talk to the stone master, she had an idea in her mind.

Therefore, when I saw nothing after two cuts, I did not feel disappointed. Instead, I quietly waited for the follow-up.

As she expected, when the stone cutter carefully cut along the spot marked by Ni, something was revealed when he rubbed it.

Emperor Dexuan saw the small stone. Although he was relieved about what was revealed, he did not hold out much hope.

That stone is too small. Even if something has been released, how big can it be? In this case, it is not worth much at all.

Thinking of this, Emperor Dexuan couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, and then his eyes fell on the rough stone that Yan Shiqing had chosen before.

She asked the guard to hold it, so he couldn't snatch it away or buy it by force.

Although Chu Ximo didn't know anything about gambling stones, he still knew the varieties of jade.

He has sharp eyes, and he can tell it is a good thing just by looking at the exposed side.

Just looking at the small size of the items, even if they were valuable, they wouldn't be enough to make Emperor Dexuan pay back his money.

I guess this was Aunt Ni’s intention?

The people watching around him exclaimed in surprise as the objects were gradually revealed, and then someone began to shout out the price.

Emperor Dexuan didn't understand what was said here at all. Seeing that the people around him were a little excited, he couldn't help but frown and glance at the jade.

But he couldn't see clearly, so he couldn't help but step forward and stare.

Ni waved his hand and asked everyone to come out. He also took a few steps forward. After seeing it clearly, he said to Emperor Dexuan: "This jade is of the best quality. Do you want to keep it for yourself or sell it?"

Emperor Dexuan's eyes flashed brightly when he heard this. He naturally knew that if Ni could tell him the best, it would be priceless.

It's just that this jade seems to be too small. In the past, he could have kept it and asked someone to do something with it.

But now he hopes to get back some of his capital by selling this. If he keeps it, he is afraid that he will suffer from the northwest wind.

Even if he threatened Yan Shiqing to return to Hongwu Kingdom, it was just talk.

Now that he has come out and gained some experience, how can he go back easily?

What's more, it took a long time to come out. Adding the time to go back, a few months at a time is enough for the prince to stand firm in the court.

If he goes back, I'm afraid he will have to pay for his own troops again.

That is a bottomless pit. How can he survive in the long run?

"Sell it! Since you understand this, I hope you can sell it for me at a good price!"

At this moment, Emperor Dexuan did not expect to be able to repay his money with such a small jade, but he hoped to be able to make more money.

Yan Shiqing listened to their conversation and heard that people around her were still shouting prices, so she directly said to Emperor Dexuan: "Master Qi, someone here has paid three thousand taels of gold. Do you want to sell it?"

If she read it correctly, the jade that came out was of the Laokeng glass variety.

This is considered the best variety of jadeite, with a texture like glass and a very high transparency.

His small piece of jade, which some people could sell for three thousand taels, was probably of very good quality as her master said.

When Emperor Dexuan heard the three thousand taels, a light flashed in his eyes.

He only spent about 200 taels, but someone shouted for 3,000 taels for this little one, which means it was a return of more than ten times.

With Mr. Ni here, after getting the three thousand taels, is he still afraid that he won't be able to get his money back?

Thinking of this, he was about to make a decision when someone shouted again, and then the translator said with a trembling voice: "Someone shouted three thousand five hundred taels."

Emperor Dexuan was excited when he heard this and shouted: "Sell!"

The translator looked at Yan Shiqing, then at Ni, and finally at Eunuch Quan, then went to discuss with the bidder.

After he took his things and went out with his guards, when he came back, the guards had already brought a wooden box over.

Emperor Dexuan quickly opened it and took a look, then immediately closed the wooden box.

But soon he was afraid that the gold would be forged, so he opened it again and touched it one by one.

Still afraid of making mistakes, I picked up each ingot of gold and weighed it in my hands to make sure.

Seeing him like this, Yan Shiqing couldn't bear to look at him and turned her head away.

"Amo, let's go back after Xiaowa and the others finish driving!"

"good!"

Chu Ximo didn't intend to open the rough stone he chose. He didn't care about it. He didn't care whether it was in the rough stone or not.

As far as he is concerned, choosing not to give up is just a matter of taking the little guy back, and naturally he, the father, has to follow suit.

When Yan Shiqing refused to take her back, he suddenly felt an arrogant feeling in his heart that he was not part of the same family and did not belong to the same family.

The next two rough stones Xiaowa chose, her own and Bai Zhi's, didn't produce anything. Even if they were cut into small pieces, they were just a pile of waste.

But what Zhai bought was actually something new. It was of the Bingnuo variety, and the jade was quite large.

But even so, the price is not as good as that of Dexuan Emperor.

When he heard the translator asking him whether to sell or keep it, he subconsciously looked at Xiaowa.

He had the intention of leaving the things for the little girl to make some sets of jewelry, but he thought that this girl was most impatient to carry these things.

Instead of making those things for her, it would be better to sell them and save some money to buy her some food later.

After she marries him in the future, all the money will be taken care of by her. When she doesn't have to worry about money, she can buy whatever she wants without worrying.

After making this plan, he just said one word: "Sell!"

Zhai's jade is not too expensive, only selling for a few hundred taels.

After he got the money and prepared to go back with Yan Shiqing and the others, Emperor Dexuan recovered from the surprise.
