Chapter 160: Opening of the Glass Pavilion (Part 2)
On the third floor of Liuli Pavilion, there are only five pieces of music.
They are tiger, horse, wolf, cow and elephant.
Although there are these on the second floor, the ones on the third floor are much larger than those on the second floor.
Because it was too heavy, it was not placed on a shelf, but on a table.
"This is also made of Liuli?" Li Chengqian was a little unbelievable.
Lin Xuan nodded and said: "Yes, they are all made of colored glaze, but there are only these five pieces at the moment. There is only one piece of each kind."
Of all the items, these five items were the most troublesome. It took two kilns and half a month to make them.
The only drawback is that there is no color.
Lin Xuan has asked people to study how to make colored glass, but there is no result yet.
Cheng Chuliang stared with big eyes and said: "This thing is so big, how much does it cost? Who can afford it?"
While looking at the decorations on the second floor, Cheng Chuliang secretly asked Lin Xuan the price, and the price surprised him.
The size of the third floor is several times larger than that of the second floor, and the quantity is so rare. With Lin Xuan's character, the price is at least several times more expensive.
Lin Xuan said confidently: "Don't worry, someone will buy it, but I won't sell it easily."
He is not prepared to make too many of these big ones. He will sell every piece at a price.
Li Lizhi is not interested in the big ones. She still likes the smaller ones on the second floor, which look cuter.
He and she looked around casually, then listened quietly to Lin Xuan and the others talking.
Li Chengqian stared at the horse for a long time and said, "Lin Xuan, this horse must be sold to Gu!"
"Why does His Highness like this? I remember that His Highness doesn't seem to particularly like horses." Lin Xuan asked curiously.
He just said he would give some to Li Chengqian when he left, but Li Chengqian refused.
However, when he saw this horse, Li Chengqian wanted to buy it, which made him very curious.
Based on his understanding, Li Chengqian probably didn't have much money.
Li Chengqian said: "Is this horse modeled after a lion?"
Lin Xuan nodded. Not only the horse, but also the other four items were made based on actual objects.
"My father likes horses very much. He couldn't tame the lion, so he gave it to you. I want to give this ornament to my father to make him happy," Li Chengqian said.
Lin Xuan looked at Li Chengqian seriously, and there was no utilitarianism in his eyes.
"Your Highness is so filial, so I will give this horse to Your Highness, but I cannot take it away now. I will ask someone to send it to Your Highness tomorrow," Lin Xuan said.
If Li Chengqian wanted to please Li Shimin, he would not give it at all.
But Li Chengqian wanted to honor his father, so Lin Xuan did not refuse.
"Lin Xuan, thank you very much!" Li Chengqian cupped his hands and was about to bow down.
"No, Your Highness!"
Lin Xuan quickly supported Li Chengqian. In addition to the prince, Li Chengqian was also his brother-in-law. How could he accept his courtesy?
Li Chengqian insisted: "I can't repay you for receiving such a great gift from you. This is just a thank you!"
Lin Xuan said quickly: "Your Highness, if you are like this, Ma Chen will not give it away."
"I will keep this love in my heart!" Seeing this, Li Chengqian had no choice but to give up!
"Your Highness, Princess, please sit upstairs for a moment while I go down to unveil the plaque and come up later." Lin Xuan said.
The opening time was determined by Li Fuzhu's appointment.
Although Lin Xuan didn't believe this, he didn't refuse.
Lin Xuan took Li Chengqian and Li Lizhi to the room on the third floor facing the street, and took Cheng Chuliang downstairs.
"Hey, shopkeeper, can't your store open yet?"
"Yes, we all have been waiting for so long, don't you think you don't have Liuli?"
"That's right, you can't be a liar, right?"
This group of people had been waiting for such a long time but had not yet opened. They were a little impatient and started to make a fuss.
Li Fuzhu said loudly: "Everyone, a cup of tea will arrive at the auspicious time. Please wait a little longer."
When everyone heard that there was still time for tea, everyone became quiet.
Lin Xuan saw this scene just after he came down and asked: "What's going on?"
"Master Hou, they are a little anxious, and the younger one has calmed down." Li Fuzhu explained.
"How long until the plaque can be unveiled?" Lin Xuan asked.
Not to mention those people who were waiting impatiently, he was also a little impatient.
Li Lizhi is still waiting for him upstairs. If you have this time, you might as well go up and have a conversation with Li Lizhi. It's not easy for them to meet each other.
Li Fuzhu said: "Master Hou, it's almost time. There's still nearly a cup of tea left."
A cup of tea only takes about fifteen minutes.
Lin Xuan waited at the door when he heard that the plaque would be unveiled soon to open the business.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way quickly!"
Just then, a group of soldiers separated the crowd.
"Why do you ask us to get out of the way?"
Many of the crowd were the Lord's children. Seeing that these soldiers were not the Forbidden Army, they said with some dissatisfaction.
"Get out of the way and don't block His Royal Highness King Wei's carriage!" the leading young general shouted impatiently.
When the man heard about King Wei, he quickly shut up and moved away.
When the others heard that King Wei was coming, they hurriedly got out of the way.
Lin Xuan frowned when he saw this scene. He didn't send an invitation to Li Tai. What was he doing here?
Not long after, a very luxurious carriage pulled by four horses stopped at the entrance of Liuli Pavilion.
Li Tai dragged his fat body and got off the carriage with the help of several guards.
"Your Majesty Lin Xuan, please see the King of Wei!" Lin Xuan bowed his hands and saluted.
Li Tai said with a smile: "I heard that your store has opened, so I came here to send you a congratulatory gift."
Lin Xuan was speechless. Did you congratulate me like this?
It’s about to open for business, and it’s going to be such a grand event. Li Chengqian doesn’t even have as big a stage as you.
Behind Li Tai, Han Wen shook his head secretly and advised Li Tai to come early.
However, Li Tai maintained his identity and insisted on coming back when the business was about to open.
If they hadn't received the news that Li Chengqian had arrived, Li Tai would probably have come later.
A soldier came forward holding a box.
Lin Xuan asked Li Fuzhu to accept the congratulatory gift and said, "Thank you, His Majesty the King of Wei!"
"Why, don't you ask me to come up and do it?" Li Tai said.
He knew Li Chengqian was up there, and wanted to see how Li Chengqian would react when he knew he was coming, but he couldn't show it.
Lin Xuan said: "Your Highness, I'm really sorry. I'm going to unveil the plaque soon. Would you like me to have someone take you in to see it?"
"Then please wait here!" Li Tai said.
Lin Xuan was a little dissatisfied with Li Tai for engaging in such a big battle, so he didn't say anything and felt a bit cold for a while.
"I heard that your shop sells all colored glaze?" Li Tai took the initiative to stir up the topic.
Li Tai was shocked when he learned the news. But Han Wen helped him analyze it carefully and believed that Lin Xuan could not have so many colored glazes, just for the sake of sensationalism.
"Your Highness, we'll find out soon when we go in and take a look!" Lin Xuanque didn't want to talk to him.
"You..." Li Tai was furious.
Han Wen quickly pulled Li Tai gently, and Li Tai came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Then I will have to take a good look at it later."
After waiting for a while, Li Fuzhu said: "Master Hou, the auspicious time has come. Let's unveil the plaque."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan grabbed a piece of red cloth and pulled it gently. The red cloth covering the plaque fell down, revealing the covered plaque.
"Everyone, Liulice is now open, please come in!" Lin Xuan said loudly.
"His Royal Highness King Wei, please come inside!" Lin Xuan said.
Although he disliked Li Tai very much, he still had to follow the proper etiquette.
Li Tai nodded and took the lead in walking in!
Lin Xuan asked Li Fuzhu to entertain the guests and followed him in.
Li Tai looked at the glass on the shelf and was surprised, then turned to look at Han Wen.
You're not saying that Lin Xuan is just trying to attract attention, how do you explain it now?
Han Wen was also very surprised. Lin Xuan was able to get so much colored glaze, and it was in complete sets. Is it rare that Lin Xuan mastered the making method of colored glaze?
Thinking of this, Han Wen felt hot in his heart. Compared with the method of making colored glaze, the immortal drunkenness was not worth mentioning.
"Lin Xuan, where did you get these colored glazes?" Li Tai asked.
Lin Xuan said: "I made it myself!"
Made it yourself?
Li Tai's eyes rolled. If he could get this method, would he still be short of money in the future?
"Lin Xuan, I saw a lot of people coming in. You go and do your work first. I will take a look at you at will!" Li Tai said.
He wanted to send Lin Xuan away and discuss with Han Wen to see if there was any way to get the method of making colored glaze.
"Then I'll go!" Lin Xuan didn't want to talk to Li Tai.
"Wow! It's really colored glaze. The whole shelf is filled with colored glaze!"
"Is this the legendary Liuli? It's so beautiful."
"Look, these colored glazes come in sets, and each set is different!"
“I definitely can’t afford a set, I don’t know if I’ll sell it alone!”
Everyone who came in was amazed when they saw the glass on the shelf.
