Xiao Qing thought about the preciousness of these things in her hands. It was impossible to sell the jade directly. She had to go to the temple to sing and sell it. The singing and selling could not be taken out until the court provided disaster relief, so she had to wait. When winter came, the drought worsened again.

, the court will conduct disaster relief at that time.

If you don't come to Jinyufang for these golden lumps, I'm afraid no other family in Yaoshan County would dare to take them!

She took a deep breath, looked at the three gilded characters of Jinyufang, and walked in.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see two half-height lacquered wooden boxes placed on both sides of the doorway. On the boxes are brocade boxes. The boxes are open. In the boxes are gold, silver and jade bracelets wrapped in silk cloth. There are various gold bracelets.

, gold bracelets for hands and feet, gold bracelets entwined with dragon and phoenix silk, delicate gold bracelets with pearls, Xiao Qing's eyes widened when he saw them.

She is such a good girl, these are all treasures, all money! A lot of gold.

These styles are not far behind even in the contemporary era. Later there are jade bracelets, silver bracelets, jade bracelets inlaid with gold, etc. Each one is more beautiful than the last, and the workmanship is astonishingly fine. Even now, it may not be possible to make something like this.

Come on craftsmanship.

Xiao Qing walked further inside and saw four six-foot-long strips forming a square shape on the northeast corner of the shop. They were filled with exquisite lacquer plates. The lacquer plates contained various gold and jade hairpins, red, green and white.

There are ancient hairpins, gold and silver hairpins, gold and silver jade hairpins, step shakes, scarf rings, Huasheng, and treasure buns with various kinds of precious stones. They are all dazzling, rich and exquisite, suitable for all kinds of wear.

In the northwest corner of the shop, there are several shelves filled with colorful phoenix crowns, treasure tassels, jade belts, pearls, corals, musk beads and various other ornaments.

The waiter in the shop came up with a smile and asked: "Sister-in-law, are you here to buy jewelry or sell jewelry?"

Most of the women who can come into their store dressed like this are here to sell jewelry or family heirlooms. They are wearing brocade clothes and jade belts, and are followed by groups of maids. They are the ones who come to buy jewelry. However, the rules in their store do not allow you to take them.

If you want to sell something, as long as the shopkeeper likes it, the price will definitely be higher than in the pawn shop. If you just want to redeem it, that is impossible.

Xiao Qing said with a crescent-shaped smile: "Shopkeeper, I'm here to sell jewelry."

The waiter was very proud that he guessed it right. He asked with a smile: "Can you give me your baby's eyes first?"

Xiao Qing took out the linen bag from his pocket, opened it, picked up a golden nugget and showed it to the waiter.

When the waiter took the round golden lump, his heart skipped a beat. Then he returned to the cabinet and took the measuring tool and scale to measure it carefully, squinting to observe the roundness and workmanship of the golden lump.

After reading the series, the waiter in the store exclaimed in a slightly panicked tone: "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, the goods have arrived. Come out and take a look."

Under normal circumstances, he can make a decision on the spot when a farm woman brings an item. Unless he encounters something really good, he will call the shopkeeper.

After a moment, Xiao Qing was surprised when he saw a door moving automatically from behind the waiter. Did ancient doors move automatically? High technology, with automatic induction?

A fat shopkeeper dressed in gold silk clothes came out. He looked relatively young, in his forties at most, with a big face and a hat. He had a smile on his lips, but his eyes were not smiling at all, and his eyes were sharp and shining.

Liang, when Xiao Qing looked at this person, he felt like a veteran in a shopping mall.

He walked up to the waiter, put the clay pot in his hand aside, glanced at the items in the waiter's hand, and asked in a long voice: "What kind of stuff is it, show me!"

The waiter handed the things to him respectfully. He weighed them first, then rubbed them with his thumb and index finger. A flash of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes. He quickly pinched the golden bump in his hand and put it in front of his eyes to take a closer look.

, then brought it to his nose and smelled it. The more he smelled it, the brighter his eyes became. Finally, he stared at the golden lump in his hand and turned it over.

After a while, I seemed to have the answer in my mind.

"Whose thing does this belong to?" the shopkeeper asked.

The waiter pointed at Xiao Qing: "The shopkeeper belongs to this sister-in-law. She also has five gold beads of the same size in her hand."

The store manager looked at Xiao Qing, "Hey, they are the same size! They have become as fat as the two of them during the drought. If he is the first among men, then she is the first among women. Looking at the bun, she seems to be a woman, so she must be

My family is well-off, otherwise I wouldn’t have the capital to be so fat!

He walked out of the counter with a smile, came to Xiao Qing and asked: "Hello, sister, can you show me your other gold beads?"

Xiao Qing saw that he was smiling strangely at her, and he didn't know why he was laughing. He handed the golden beads in his hand to the shopkeeper to see.

The shopkeeper just looked at them and asked with a smile: "Sister, are there three more of these gold beads at home? Did they take them from a hair crown?"

Hey, when Xiao Qing heard this, she was an expert. She knew where this thing originally grew. It was a pity that she had no research on these things. She only knew that this thing was valuable.

Xiao Qing denied with a smile: "To be honest, shopkeeper, we don't know where this thing originally grew, because when it was handed down from our ancestors, there were only these few beads. If it hadn't been for the severe drought in the past few years, there would have been no food at home.

If she didn’t drink, the little woman wouldn’t sell the things passed down from her ancestors.”

The shopkeeper was confused and asked: "Since it is passed down from ancestors, why don't you go to the pawn shop? You can redeem it one day. Why did you sell it in my shop?"

Xiao Qing said quite seriously: "Shopkeeper, look at what I'm wearing. This is already the best clothes in my family. Even the hairpins are made of wood. I don't think there's anything wrong with the money the pawnshop gave me. I just want to sell it."

I have this thing, and I don’t plan to redeem it. I want to come to one of your gold and silver shops and see whoever offers the highest price, and I will sell it to whomever.”

The shopkeeper raised his head and laughed. For him, he had seen too many such money-grubbing young women: "Yes, yes, sister is absolutely right. Our gold and silver shop does give more than the pawn shop. Sister, I listen."

Your accent is from Yaoshan County, where do you live?"

Xiao Qing's eyes dimmed, and his smile dropped sharply. He wanted to find out her family background. It seemed that these gold nuggets were really not ordinary things, and they could never be exchanged for silver and copper plates at the ordinary gold price.

"Shopkeeper, I'm here to sell gold beads. I'm not here to find a family for you. You just give me a price. If it's suitable, I'll be thinking about whether to sell it to your family." Xiao Qinghua said passively instead of proactively.

.

The shopkeeper was startled. He didn't expect that this person was thoughtful and did not give his home address or name.

"Sister, let me tell you the truth, your gold beads are pure gold, and the workmanship is exquisite. The golden bumps are rounded into beads. If this technique was done thousands of years ago, then these few of yours are treasures. If it was done hundreds of years ago,

It's a good thing, but of course if it's gold beads that are within a hundred years, they can only be exchanged for silver at the ordinary price." The shopkeeper did not hide it: "However, I look at this thing of yours, it looks like something from a thousand years ago.
