The next day, Jing Hua woke up very early.

Maybe it was because he drank too much wine the night before and was so thirsty, maybe it was because the thought of opening the art gallery filled his whole body with strength. In short, as soon as the sky turned white, Jing Hua woke up early, feeling like he had been injected with chicken blood , the soles of the feet floated out of the Fumanmen Inn like floating clouds.

Because it was still early, the hawkers on the street had just started to set up their stalls, and there were not many pedestrians and even fewer customers.

Jing Hua randomly found a shop and sat down, Xiao Er greeted with a smile: "Guest officer, what do you want to eat?"

"What's delicious?" Jing Hua asked.

"The tofu flower in the shop is the best here, as well as eight-treasure rice and millet porridge..."

"Is there any soy milk?"

"Soymilk? Isn't soymilk the first white milk that comes out when grinding tofu? Is it drinkable if it's sparse?" Xiaoer looked puzzled.

"..." The corner of Jing Hua's mouth twitched, and he asked, "Then... what are the staple foods?"

"Pig food?" Xiao Er was stunned.

"What pig food! I'm talking about the staple food, the master's master, the food's food, just to ask what kind of rice you have here!"

"Then just say you don't have enough food..." Xiaoer muttered.

"What food do you have!!" Jing Hua slapped the table.

"There are...there are pastry biscuits, steamed stuffed buns, tea eggs..."

"One bowl of bean curd and one sesame seed cake." Jing Hua said.

"You...you wait a moment..."

"What are you stuttering for?"

"No...no...no stammer...ba..."

"..." Jing Hua rolled her eyes, lowered her anger and said, "Go."

Looking down, I realized that the inadvertent shot just now accidentally made a crack of about 15cm on the table.It's no wonder Xiaoer's tongue-tied moment changed from eloquent to tongue-tied.

In modern society, you are fined for damaging public property; but in ancient times, others would think you are powerful and dare not mess with you.Of course, no matter what dynasty you are in, bullying the weak and fearing the hard will make up the majority. If you are a weak guy who can’t be weaker, and you don’t have any money, you may be beaten to death by trampling on someone else’s territory. of.

After breakfast, Jing Hua took out a piece of silver the size of a broad bean from her purse and handed it to Xiao Er.Xiao Er said with a look of embarrassment: "Guest officer, the store doesn't have that much change for you..."

"No way? You can't find such a small amount of money?" Jing Hua obviously didn't believe it.

"Eh... also... it's not that you can't find it at all..." Xiaoer scratched the back of his head and said weakly, "It's a small business, and there is not much change. You can give me a ten-cent breakfast." Two taels, after we give you 990 wen, if someone pays you two taels, it will really be hard to find it..."

It turns out that a silver nugget the size of broad beans is one tael, and one tael of silver is equal to 1000 Wen copper coins.Although Jing Hua had a bit of a hard time eating this breakfast, but at least she had increased her knowledge, so the trip was not in vain.

Thinking of this, Jing Hua was in a good mood, and said straightforwardly, "You don't need to look for it, I'll pay for your table!"

"Hey, thank you, guest officer!" Xiao Er immediately smiled, and his tongue didn't tie up: "Guest officer, go slowly! Guest officer comes here often!"

"..."-_-|||

Jing Hua left the stall with her hands on her forehead.After walking a few steps, I heard Xiaoer whispering to someone in the back room: "This woman's brain is not very clear, but she is quite generous in her actions!"

"...%#@&*!" Jing Hua was speechless.

Soy milk, a staple food, is such a common word, but it would be judged as brain-dead when used here.

After breakfast, the street was already bustling with all kinds of businesses.Jing Hua decided to go shopping, buy some new clothes, jewelry, daily necessities, and some snacks for emergencies.

Jing Hua likes jewelry and other small items the most, as they enhance her taste and are not tiring to carry in her pocket, she picked several of them in a short while.

However, she was embarrassed to find that the purchasing power of one tael of silver was only equivalent to 200 yuan in RMB.The yy about petty bourgeois life before seems a bit too much.So I wondered: Isn't this a thousand fine silver?

Whether the silver is pure or impure can be known by burning it.Pure silver will become pure white after being fired, and silver doped with other metal components will appear black to varying degrees after being fired.Jing Hua decided to find a shop that processed jewelry and burn it.

Jing Hua walked into a silver shop and asked, "Shopkeeper, do you make jewelry here?"

The shopkeeper was bent over and busy with work, when he heard a customer, he straightened up quickly and greeted him with a smile: "Definitely, what jewelry do you want to make?"

"How long will it take to make it?"

"Choose a model, and it will come out in one day. It's very fast."

Jing Hua took out two taels of silver and asked, "Is it okay to make 12 halo bracelets with these silver?"

The shopkeeper was taken aback, and said, "I've never heard of this method..."

"???" (+﹏+)~ No way...

The shopkeeper added: "I have never made such a thin model, and there is no such a thin mold... Besides, won't the 12 bracelets jingle?"

"..." (╯﹏╰) Why do you care if I wear it or not...

The shopkeeper saw that Jing Hua was a little downcast, and quickly said, "Girl, there are many kinds of jewelry in the store. You can choose a pattern and make it to order. There are all kinds of patterns and sizes, and you are satisfied!"

"...Okay," Jing Hua could only say, "show me the pattern."

While flipping through the pattern book, Jing Hua complained silently in her heart: Sure enough, the aesthetic standards are not the same as those of an era!All kinds of vulgar dragon and phoenix carvings, as well as boring lettering, such as "dragon and phoenix bring prosperity", "longevity", "smart", "good luck", "talent and beauty", "Gong Xi Fa Cai", There is even "beautiful as a flower"...

Just when Jing Hua flipped through the sample album until she was about to vomit, she finally found a carved pattern without dragons and phoenixes and lettering, and the pattern looked a little different.

"Shopkeeper, what kind of flower is this?" Jing Hua asked.

"Girl's eyesight is really good, this is hibiscus flower!" The shopkeeper admired Jing Hua's eyesight.

"Furong..." ⊙﹏⊙ shopkeeper, in fact, you can be more vulgar...

Since there were really no eye-catching designs, Jing Hua had no choice but to say, "Just this one. You burn it for me."

"Hey, girl, are you still worried about the small shop?" The shopkeeper smiled and patted his chest and said, "The small shop is a century-old brand, so you can rest assured of its reputation!"

"You misunderstood, I just need it urgently." Jing Hua was still waiting to see him burn the money, "What is it, I am in a hurry to give it away."

"Oh, that's how it is! Then I'm afraid the manual cost will have to be increased..."

"How much is the manual cost?"

"Not much, just one tael of silver."

"It's so expensive?" One tael of silver is equivalent to 200 yuan, which is enough to buy another finished product, okay...

"It will come out in an hour, very quickly!" The shopkeeper said with a vow, "If I change to another store, I won't be able to come out in two or three hours!"

"……All right."

Therefore, Jing Hua witnessed how the hibiscus was made, and saw the white silver paste melted in the mold, so she was finally relieved.It is indeed pure silver that cannot be purer.

But then she became depressed again: So pure silver was so worthless in ancient times!

When she got the finished product, Jing Hua once again felt overwhelmed, and deeply realized what it meant to be wrong.

Furong is swollen! Furong!The actual product does not match the picture description at all!Is this really hibiscus?I call you, do you dare to agree?

Such a bracelet, huh... the poor craftsmanship has surpassed the level that words can describe, please imagine for yourself.

And the shopkeeper can still say that cheekily: "I just said, we are a century-old store, and our reputation, craftsmanship and speed are absolutely first-class!"

Is it possible that this product is considered a boutique in his mind? ? ?

Jing Hua really didn't want to say a word more.Adhering to the attitude of being forgiving and forgiving, Jing Hua gave the manual fee as usual.He took out a tael of silver and smashed it hard on the table, and stepped out of the silver shop without looking back.

The one tael of silver was deeply embedded in the table, and the shopkeeper couldn't get it out after digging for a long time.

As for the bracelet, Jing Hua casually threw it to the beggar old woman on the street.
