By the time Ahudala and his people arrived at the Zhenbao Pavilion, the staff at the Zhenbao Pavilion were already packing up and getting ready to close.
Ahhudala hurriedly dismounted his horse and walked quickly into the store, calling loudly: "Master Huo, is Master Huo here?"
The shopkeeper had a keen eye and recognized Ahudala at a glance, and immediately stepped forward to greet him respectfully.
"Your Highness, the Second Prince, you are here. My master is not here. What you need is the same as the villain said." The shopkeeper said.
Ahhudala showed the round transparent crystal stone that his wife gave him and asked: "Do you still have this kind of crystal stone at home?"
The shopkeeper took a closer look at the crystal stone and immediately nodded and said: "Some, some, and quite a few!"
Ahudala was very happy and quickly urged the shopkeeper to take out all the crystal stones.
The shopkeeper didn't dare to neglect, so he hurriedly asked the waiter to go to the warehouse to get it, and at the same time, he also brought refreshments to Ahudala.
At this time, Ahudala felt different from before because he heard that the crystal stone was still available. He felt relieved and felt hungry when he smelled the fragrance of the tea.
Unable to bear it any longer, Ahudala picked up a piece of pastry and ate it with tea.
The shopkeeper was a little surprised when he saw this scene, because usually when Ahudala comes here, he never eats their tea and cakes. Today, he doesn't know what happened, but he made an exception.
While Ahudala was eating, the boy who went to the warehouse came back with a large wooden box in his arms, and there was a big lock on the wooden box.
"Open it, open it quickly." Ahudala stood up happily and motioned to the shopkeeper to quickly open the box for him to take a look at.
The shopkeeper immediately took out the key and opened the wooden box. As expected, there were pieces of crystal stones of different sizes inside.
The shopkeeper took out the crystal stones one by one, then arranged them on the table, and said to Ahudala: "Your Highness, Second Prince, please look at these. These are the best crystal stones in our store. Please ask the craftsmen to polish any of them."
, that is a rare treasure.”
Ahudala stopped eating at this time and stood in front of the table to examine the crystal stones one by one.
But as he watched along the way, Ahudala's face, which was quite happy at first, gradually became troubled.
"Shopkeeper, are all the crystal stones in your Treasure Pavilion here?" Ahudala asked.
The shopkeeper had been paying attention to Ahudala's face. When he heard him ask this, he said: "Your Highness, the second prince, do you not like this batch of crystal stones?"
"This batch will definitely not work. It is not transparent and bright enough. What I want is a very transparent one, so you can see things through the crystal stone." Ahhudala shook his head and said.
After hearing this, the shopkeeper said: "Oh, what a coincidence, Your Highness, the Second Prince, an hour before you came, all the crystal stones of that color in our Zhenbao Pavilion were bought."
"What?" Ahudala was shocked and froze on the spot.
Ahhudala never expected that someone would take the lead, and what happened was just an hour ago.
Immediately afterwards, Ahudala asked: "Who bought it? What is it called and where does it live?"
The shopkeeper hurriedly shook his head and said: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, I really don't know the name of the guest and where he will stay. However, after the guest paid the money, he hasn't taken away the things yet. He said that he asked us to keep them for him and pick them up when he passes by tomorrow morning."
"In other words, those transparent crystal stones are still here with you?" Ahudala asked hurriedly.
The shopkeeper nodded: "Yes, it's just in the warehouse."
Ahudala was overjoyed and immediately said: "What are you waiting for? Go and move out quickly!"
The shopkeeper immediately became anxious, and said in a panic, "No, Your Highness, the Second Prince, I have already paid for that box of crystals, which means it belongs to someone else. We are just keeping it temporarily. It is not convenient to go back."
It’s moving.”
Ahhudala frowned and said: "Shopkeeper, to tell you the truth, I have urgent need for such a batch of crystal stones, but I don't want to make it difficult for you, so... what is that box of crystals?
If you sell it for the price, I, Ahhudala, am willing to pay double the price, so this can be regarded as compensation for you, how about it?"
The shopkeeper shook his head and waved his hands, and said with sweat on his face: "No, His Highness the Second Prince, the customer also said before buying that the crystal stones he bought also have a very important use, so it is really... Second Prince
Your Highness, please don't make things difficult for me. If you like it, I will definitely ask someone to find some better crystal stones next time..."
Ahhudala said in a deep voice: "Next time? Tell me, when will that have to wait?"
"Seven days, no no... five days is enough." The shopkeeper hurriedly changed his words after saying it.
Ahhudala said seriously: "Don't say it's five days, I can't wait even for one more day! Someone..."
"Yes!" Several of Ahudala's followers immediately responded.
Ahhudala said forcefully: "You guys, go and bring up that box of crystal stones immediately!"
"Yes, Your Highness." The entourage responded in unison, and then they pulled over a clerk and forced him to go to the warehouse together.
The shopkeeper immediately became anxious, but with Ahudala's identity right in front of him, he didn't dare ask the guys to stop him.
"Your Highness, Second Prince, this won't work. It's against the rules. Then I won't be able to do business." The shopkeeper sang with a sad face.
In fact, Ahudala is not an unreasonable person, but today's situation is very special. Now that he knows where the transparent crystal stone that can make a telescope is, he has made up his mind to get it!
Not long after, the followers brought in a wooden box with a seal and an iron lock.
"Shopkeeper, please unlock the door!" Ahudala said to the shopkeeper.
But the shopkeeper shook his head and said: "Your Highness, the second prince, I don't have the key. The guest paid the money and the key has been given to the guest."
Ahudala frowned, then turned to his followers and said, "Break the lock."
"Yes, Your Highness." The entourage responded in unison.
.....................
After half a cup of tea, the followers finally broke the lock on the box.
Ahhudala couldn't wait to step forward and open the box. After taking a closer look inside, he found that the crystal stones inside were extremely transparent and were several times better in quality than those placed on the table.
"Okay, great!"
Ahudala held a crystal stone larger than his fist and looked at it repeatedly, thinking that there must be more than a dozen pieces in this box, and he should be able to make many telescopes.
Putting down the crystal stone, Ahudala turned and looked at the shopkeeper.
At this time, the shopkeeper looked depressed and helpless, and didn't want to say anything.
"Shopkeeper, what happened today is my fault, but please understand that this matter is very important, and I did it as a last resort. I will specifically explain it to Mr. Huo later, and I will not implicate you." Ahudala was very
Said seriously.
After that, Ahudala ordered his followers: "Move the box back. Remember, you must handle it with care. Don't break the crystal stone!"
After a while, Ahudala and his followers left the Treasure Pavilion with the box of crystal stones.
The shopkeeper stared blankly at Ahudala and his entourage leaving, looking very depressed and helpless.
After a while, the shopkeeper turned around and called out: "Here comes someone, hurry up and prepare the car and take me to see my boss."
