Three points are destined, seven points depend on face

Xia Chuntao was in the capital and did not live in Ling Qingxuan's other courtyard. This gentleman is being stared at by many pairs of eyes. Xia Chuntao is here to visit the capital and does not want to be used as a raft by these wealthy families.

Ling Qingxuan temporarily found a small courtyard for Xia Chuntao to live in. The courtyard was fully equipped with everything, as well as a cook and a rough maid for Xia Chuntao to take care of. Xuan Er also followed Xia Chuntao and became his own "old man". This bank".

Xia Chuntao felt that it was completely unnecessary, and since she couldn't stay for a few days, she might as well find a better inn to stay in. But think about it, this is also the prince's intention, so just accept it with peace of mind.

Ling Qingxuan sent his sister home and rushed to the palace without stopping.

Tsk tsk, busy man!

Xuan Er took over the important task of taking Xia Chuntao shopping.

When Xuan Er saw Xia Chuntao, he grinned from ear to ear, "Ms. Xia, I'm familiar with the capital. Where do you want to go?"

Xiaobai glanced at Xuan Er, "I think you prefer being a coachman to being a secret guard, right?"

Xuan Er's smile froze on his face, and he murmured in a low voice: "Tell me, you are such a good girl, why do you have a mouth?"

Xiaobai's eyebrows stood up, "Believe it or not, I'll beat you up!"

Xia Chuntao smiled and watched the excitement for a while, then snapped her fingers and said, "Time is precious, friends, let's go!"

Now that we're here, why not take a look at the prince's shops first.

The main streets in the capital are very wide, with shops on both sides and an endless stream of cars and horses.

The three shops are all located on several main streets in the capital. The location is not mentioned. They are all places where dignitaries like to hang out. A shop in this location is not something you can buy if you have money.

The three shops are about the same size, all two stories high, with a yard, a toilet, a well, and several rooms around the back. This type of shop is actually good for opening a restaurant, silver shop, embroidery shop, etc.

Xia Chuntao had an idea in mind and was going to go back to discuss it with Master Jin and try to come here next year to renovate the shop.

Funding is not a big problem. Don't mention anything else. She doesn't have a "Youranju" that lays golden eggs!

Besides, the shop is his own, how could Xia Chuntao just watch the golden rooster not lay eggs?

After checking out a few shops, Xia Chuntao asked Xuan Er to take him to a market where ordinary people frequented. Seeing an embroidery shop, Xia Chuntao took Xiaobai in, intending to see what styles of clothing were popular among the people in the capital.

There were a lot of people in the shop, and most of them were choosing clothing materials, embroidering shoes, etc.

"Sir, what do you want to buy, fabrics or ready-made clothes?" The waiter immediately greeted Xia Chuntao and the two of them attentively.

Xia Chuntao watched all the way, and the waiter introduced, "Our store has a wide range of embroidery designs and colors, and there are also many styles of ready-made clothes that are suitable for you..."

The waiter has a poisonous eye, and he knows it as soon as he sees Xia Chuntao's dress. This young master should have a good family background, and he has a maid waiting on him. Judging from his accent, he doesn't belong to the capital city.

It’s great to come from out of town! If you don't kill rich foreigners, who will you kill?

Xia Chuntao actually doesn't like such an overly enthusiastic waiter, so can't she just let the guests watch in peace?

"I'll just take a look, you can greet the others!"

The waiter's smile froze for a moment, and then said: "When I saw that you are coming to our store for the first time, I have to give you a good introduction. Young master, you don't know something. Everyone in the capital knows about our store. It is absolutely high-quality and low-priced." . Master, whatever you like, I will give you a preferential price and treat it as a friend."

Xia Chuntao casually pointed to a piece of ready-made clothing and asked the waiter: "This one..."

"Hey, Master, you really know the goods. This is a new item. You can see the material. It is the best brocade. Look at the stitching. How detailed it is! The embroidery is so elegant! This is simply professional. Tailor-made for you! If you wear it, all the princes in the capital will be jealous of you!"

"So...how much is it?"

"Eighty-five taels." The waiter said while looking at Xia Chuntao's expression.

Xia Chuntao had no expression.

Do you think she is the stupid son of a landlord? Return Yunjin? Think she doesn’t know Yun Jin?

Yun brocade uses exquisite materials, fine weaving, exquisite patterns, and smooth and brilliant color, just like the clouds in the sky, so it is called "Yun brocade".

In Dai Viet, the output of Yun brocade is very small, and most of it is used by the royal family. Only a few people can afford Yun brocade. Therefore, Yun brocade rarely circulates in the market.

Xia Chuntao pointed to a silver-gray fur next to her.

"Oh, I said you have a good sense! This fur is amazing! It's made of fine mink. If you wear this one, you'll look so elegant and suave, and all the girls in the capital will be charmed by you! "

"This fur coat was originally priced at 450 taels. If you want it sincerely," the waiter gritted his teeth, seemingly cruel, "I'll give you 400 taels! You can't find it anywhere at this price."

Some people around have noticed the movement happening here, and they couldn't help but take a breath when they heard the waiter's quotation.

Xia Chuntao still had no expression on her face, and she complained wildly in her heart: Am I just such a fool?

Dare you sell something that is forty taels at most for 400 taels? Do you think you are selling pandas?

There is a difference between mink and mink, not to mention that this is not mink fur at all, but a fur coat made of chinchilla fur.

Xia Chuntao looked at the waiter with a half-smile, and said to Xiaobai next to him: "Let's go shopping somewhere else."

When the waiter heard this, he thought differently from him! Seeing that the two of them were about to turn around and leave, they immediately became anxious and stopped Xia Chuntao, "Don't leave in a hurry! If you think it's expensive, let's discuss it later."

Xia Chuntao glanced at the waiter, "Do you really want to discuss it?"

"That's right, this deal is of course voluntary between you and me. Just say so, young master!"

"Okay! I want both of these, forty-eight taels in total. If it works, I'll take it. If it doesn't, forget it!"

This is the price that Xia Chuntao raised based on the prices in the capital. If this thing were placed in Rongcheng, it would only cost thirty-five taels at most.

"Hey, how can you bargain like this? You just don't want to buy it, right?"

Xia Chuntao imitated the waiter's tone and said: "Oh, you deliberately don't want to sell, but I also deliberately don't want to buy it. Isn't this a mutual wish between you and me?"

There were girls whispering next to her, and some were hiding their lips and snickering. No matter what, everyone's attention was attracted.

The waiter glared at Xia Chuntao and smiled contemptuously, "You're a country bumpkin from out of town. This is the capital of the imperial city, not your remote place! If you can't afford it, just say so. Don't jabber here!"

As soon as Xiaobai heard this, he couldn't help but want to get started.

If Madam Xia hadn't allowed her to take action at will, she would have given this scornful guy two big slaps!

Xia Chuntao looked the waiter up and down, and then imitated the waiter's tone and said: "Where did this idiot come from? He doesn't know what he sells, so he dares to come out to entertain guests? I'm really worried about your boss. !”

"You country bumpkin, who are you calling an idiot? Tell me clearly!"
