Chapter 16 Is this the attitude of giving things away?

Shangguan Ruoli said calmly, "Short dagger."

The waiter asked kindly: "There are many styles of daggers in our store. What do you want? Is it for your own use or as a gift?"

"For personal use, I want the lightest and sharpest one." Shangguan Ruoli thought of the black iron chain imprisoning Xiao Fei, "the kind that can cut through thousands of years of black iron."

The waiter was slightly startled and looked her up and down.

The waiter at the sword shop saw Shangguan Ruoli's dress and good temperament, so he knew she must be a young lady from a wealthy family.

He had read countless people, and from her every little move, he could see that she was blind, and he also made guesses about her identity.

After all, the only wealthy family in the capital that has a blind lady is the Zhenguo General's Mansion, not to mention that Shangguan Ruoli jumped from the Ranxiang Building to everyone.

He enthusiastically led her to the counter and said to a middle-aged man with a goatee behind the counter: "Shopkeeper, this lady wants a thousand-year black iron weapon."

Shangguan Ruoli corrected him: "I want a weapon that can cut through thousands of years of black iron."

The shopkeeper was very thin but had sharp eyes. He looked at Shangguan Ruoli and said, "Thousand-year-old black iron is the king of weapons. To cut off the thousand-year black iron, you can only use the same weapon with internal strength."

After saying that, he turned around and took down a rosewood box from the shelf behind the counter, opened the box, pushed it in front of Shangguan Ruoli, and said: "Miss has no internal strength. I'm afraid she won't be able to lift the thousand-year black iron sword. This black iron dagger

Suitable for ladies to wear."

Xiao Fei's internal energy is still concentrated in her Dantian and cannot be used by Shangguan Ruoli. She is now no different from an ordinary person.

Qiu Ju picked up the dagger sensibly and explained its appearance to Shangguan Ruoli.

Shangguan Ruoli used the corner of his eye to see that the dagger was half a foot long. The handle and sheath were both black and very light. He didn't know what kind of material it was made of. The handle was inlaid with cat's-eye-sized gems, which looked very valuable at first glance.

Philippines.

Qiu Ju pulled the dagger out of its sheath, only to hear a subtle hum and a chill. It was indeed a rare sword in the world.

The shopkeeper put an ordinary piece of iron on the counter, "Girl, try it. This is the sharpest dagger in the world."

Qiu Ju swung her dagger towards the iron block, and heard a "dang" sound, and the one-inch-thick iron block split into two halves.

Shangguan Ruoli nodded, "Yes, that's it. How much does it cost?"

The shopkeeper's eyes flashed and he said: "One hundred thousand taels of silver."

"Hey~" Qiu Ju gasped with wide eyes.

Shangguan Ruoli didn't know the value of money in this era, but it could be seen from Qiu Ju's expression that it was not a small amount.

Such a small dagger is so valuable. Each of the four iron chains must be five or six meters long and as thick as a baby's arm. If they were made into daggers, darts, arrowheads, needles... they would be priceless!

This shows how important what Xiao Yunqing wants to get from Xiao Fei!

Qiu Ju stared: "Are you trying to steal the money?"

Shangguan Ruoli only had more than a hundred taels of silver. Although Xiao Yunqing did not dare to treat her harshly materially and paid her monthly money on time, she could not see it. The money was kept with the maid, so Guang Chuntao took away two taels intermittently.

One hundred taels.

Looking at Qiu Ju's expression, the shopkeeper knew they couldn't afford it, so he snatched the dagger away and said disdainfully: "This is made of thousand-year-old dark iron that is rare in the world. The handle and sheath are made of ebony that is hundreds of years old. It is strong and light, and it also has a

With the fragrance, the gems on it alone are worth tens of thousands of taels of silver."

Shangguan Ruoli said calmly: "The dagger is black iron, yes, but it is not a thousand-year black iron."

She had carefully observed the iron chain on Xiao Fei's wrist. The density and luster were much better than the dagger.

The shopkeeper's face condensed and he said coldly: "If you can't afford it, why slander us?"

Seeing that she had no money, the waiter next to her said coldly: "Don't talk nonsense. What do you, a blind man, know?"

The people choosing weapons next to them all pointed at Shangguan Ruoli, "That's right, just talking nonsense when you can't see it doesn't mean you have good intentions."

“If you can’t afford it, you can’t afford it, and you still say that other people’s products are not good!”

"Why is this person like this?"



The shopkeeper smiled contemptuously and said: "Even if I give you half price, Miss can't afford it. Miss, please turn back and go straight. There is a blacksmith shop two miles to the left. There are things you can afford there."

Qiu Ju's face turned red with anger, "Don't look down on others!"

He turned around and comforted Shangguan Ruoli in a low voice: "Miss, the general loves you so much. As long as you ask, even if you buy this powerful sword shop, he won't blink an eye!"

The shopkeeper obviously had martial arts skills. After hearing Qiu Ju's words, he sneered disdainfully: "Do you think everything in our Mega Swords and Swords Shop is just scrap metal?"

When the waiter saw that the shopkeeper was getting angry, he opened his arms and shouted at them, "Go! Go! Go! Don't delay our business here!"

Shangguan Ruoli gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do. As the saying goes, a penny can stump a hero, let alone a hundred thousand taels of silver!

Pulling Qiu Ju, whose red eyes were about to explode, she walked out and saw a tall and beautiful figure walking in.

"King Xuan!" Qiu Ju exclaimed, realizing that she had lost her composure, and quickly covered her mouth with her hands.

Everyone was slightly startled and hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "The common people pay their respects to King Xuan!"

Shangguan Ruoli only felt a wave of heat rush to his forehead, and he just stood there motionless, staring blankly at the man who was coming slowly against the light. His body seemed to be shrouded in a faint golden light, as if all the splendor in the sky was covered by it.

He occupies it all by himself, making people unable to take their eyes away.

A sentence popped out unconsciously in his mind: The people on Mo are like jade, and their splendor is unparalleled in the world.

This man is handsome and elegant with dignity and majesty. Without saying anything, he gives people a feeling of being extraordinary, noble and inviolable.

The stars are shining in the deep black eyes, just like the vast starry sky on a winter night. Just a glance will make people deeply intoxicated.

It's just that he can't be considered a real man, which is really a pity. I don't know how many women have been heartbroken by him, and they have to stay with him even if they remain a widow.

Tsk tsk! Such a handsome evildoer can only look at but not use it, what a waste of natural resources!

Shangguan Ruoli was fascinated by what he saw, but fortunately he had a hat to block it, otherwise the green light in his eyes would have been exposed.

Dongming Ziyu saw Shangguan Ruoli, but he didn't give her a look. A pair of sharp eyes that were more black than white glanced at the shopkeeper.

He walked to the counter, stretched out his big jade hand, took the box, opened it, and slightly opened his thin lips: "Six hundred years at most."

The shopkeeper was so frightened that he trembled into a ball and broke out in cold sweat, "Yes, yes, yes! King Xuan is wise. If King Xuan likes it, just play with it."

Dongming Ziyu gave Mo Wen, the little eunuch next to him, a look. He cherished his words like gold, and this man was not worthy of him saying one more word.

Mo Wen took out a stack of banknotes from his arms, threw them on the counter, and said sharply: "Fifty thousand taels, you are guaranteed to make a profit!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty!" The shopkeeper's sweatdrops were dripping down. He was a Prince, and he didn't even give him a penny. He didn't even dare to fart.

Dongming Ziyu took the box and walked towards Shangguan Ruoli, who was holding the wooden stake there. He threw the wooden box at her feet and walked out.

An unknown fire surged from his heart. Shangguan Ruoli really wanted to pick up the box and hit him on the back of the head!

Damn! Is this the attitude of giving things away?

"Your Highness Prince Xuan!" Shangguan Ruoxian's sweet and gentle voice came from outside the door.
