Chapter 281 Competition in the Palace

The entire Yaoyue Hall soon had the atmosphere of a banquet.

Hundreds of small tables inside are also ready.

Ye Ning came here with Ye Xiaoli at noon.

At this time, many people were already sitting in Yaoyue Hall.

These people are all blond and blue-eyed, and they look very different from the people from the Central Plains.

Judging from their dusty appearance, they must be those caravans coming from the Western Regions.

"Sister, look at the big and small bags behind them. It seems like this trip has been fruitful."

Ye Xiaoli's sharp eyes saw the packages in the distance.

Ye Ning shook her head.

"Don't you think those things look like goods to be sold to the capital?"

The high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital are very fond of the handicrafts from the Western Regions.

You can get some benefits from them and sell your own domestic handicrafts at the same time.

Naturally, people from the Western Regions were also happy to send them things.

"Oh, yes, it's really interesting to talk about them. They are just going through the motions to deliver goods. Your Majesty actually puts on such a big show, for fear that others will not know that they are here to do business."

Ye Xiaoli was puzzled.

But Ye Ning had attended several such banquets.

"There will be a competition for treasures later."

"Competition? Who is competing with whom? It can't be the imperial court comparing with their caravan, right? What do we have? We can't get rid of it at all!"

Even he knew that the Liang Dynasty's craftsmanship was very poor.

"Just wait for your brother-in-law."

Ye Ning didn't say much, just mentioned Qitian.

"My brother-in-law? Why didn't my brother-in-law come?"

Ye Xiaoli looked around and thought that Qi Tian had something important to deal with, so he couldn't attend the banquet.

"Your brother-in-law is making something very powerful. I wonder if he can make it in time for today's banquet."

Ye Ning didn't say the last sentence.

In fact, if Qi Tian can't make it to today's banquet,

Even if Tang Sancai was made later, it would be of no use.

"Oh? I'll have to take a look at it later. I hope he can come here soon."

Ye Xiaoli rubbed his hands and looked forward to it.

Ye Ning sighed.

"I hope so too."

Ever since Qitian made Tang Sancai, he has never gone home.

Ye Ning originally wanted to visit Qi Tian after waiting for two days, but she thought that Qi Tian was very busy there.

I will definitely cause some trouble for Qi Tian in the past.

So Ye Ning didn't go there, but stayed at home to give Qi Tiankong enough time to try out things.

Soon the banquet was almost full of people.

After everyone was in place, Emperor Liang also came out from the rear.

"Today is a good day for businessmen from the Western Regions to come to my Daliang. I have made a special trip to host a banquet to entertain you. Everyone can eat and drink as they please."

Emperor Liang seemed unwilling to go in front of everyone, so he just said these words.

After a casual perfunctory moment, he immediately turned around and prepared to leave.

"Du Tao, you can handle the next process."

"yes."

Du Tao is very thick-skinned, and he doesn't care whether he is embarrassed or not, especially in front of such an illusory work of art.

Good or bad doesn't matter to him at all.

"I wonder what the prices of handicrafts from the Western Regions are this year? Can you let me see the list?"

"Of course, I'll get it for you."

At this time, the leader of the Western Regions Caravan stood up. He was an extremely strong young man.

He came here with someone last year and the year before that. His name is Afanti.

"This is our goods list for this year, as well as prices."

Afanti picked up the things and brought them to Du Tao.

The surrounding princes, nobles, and some high-level officials in the court were all eager to buy it.

After reaching their level.

Only by purchasing something similar to luxury goods can they feel satisfied.

So after talking about this, many people quickly said:

"Hurry up and start selling. Take out the best batch first and let's check the quality."

Generally speaking, many princes and nobles attend banquets here.

Everyone will have the right to purchase the first batch of goods from the Western Regions.

So every one of them was very concerned when they heard that the caravan from the Western Regions was coming.

Even if I have official duties, I will still find time to attend the banquet.

At this time, Afanti smiled and waved his hand and said:

"Don't worry about this matter right now, let's watch each other's fire dance first."

When he heard Lu Liang in the distance, his face turned dark.

Emperor Liang also walked out from behind.

When exchanging goods, it is equivalent to the friendship between the two countries becoming stronger again.

On such an important occasion, Emperor Liang must be present.

Du Tao presided over the meeting unhurriedly, nodded and said:

"Okay, let's take a look, Eunuch Lu, could you please bring the things up."

"knew."

Lu Liang quickly walked down, had their three things covered with silk, and then brought them up.

Afanti quickly showed off their first treasure.

"Come on, our first treasure is a Sanyang Kaitai Cup."

This is a piece of porcelain. This porcelain has been carefully carved, has a mellow color, and is extremely high-end throughout.

At first glance, it is not ordinary.

The level of this treasure is even more powerful than their dragon and phoenix jade pendant.

This is obviously an act of vandalism.

Gong Shutuo and Lu Liang looked at each other, both of them hesitant.

I didn't expect that the first item the other party took out was so exquisite.

With no other choice, Lu Liang quickly stepped forward and took out their dragon and phoenix jade pendants.

Seeing his move, Gongshutuo didn't say anything because he also felt that he needed to take out this treasure that was at the bottom of the box.

Otherwise, they would lose the first game and they would definitely not be able to hold it in their faces.

"This is our dragon and phoenix jade pendant."

After taking out this treasure, several people around were shocked.

"This treasure is great!"

Even Afanti nodded with satisfaction.

"Daliang's dragon and phoenix jade pendant, I am willing to bow down!"

Hearing this, Lu Liang and Gong Shutuo breathed a sigh of relief, and the gloomy look on Emperor Liang's face, who was sitting at the top, also eased a bit.

But Afanti didn't stop and immediately took out a more powerful porcelain bottle.

"I have a white porcelain vase with a Kowloon guard here. The picture on it was painted by the most powerful painter from the Western Regions! His name is Qifanda!"

"hiss!"

Upon hearing this name, everyone's eyes widened.

Originally, this white porcelain bottle was already very precious.

They still hired the top painters in their country.

The value is immeasurable.
