Chapter 259: Can't Find It
The rouge gouache was stacked in such a mess, in Xue Jinyi's opinion, it was unusable, so she asked Qingzhi and Qingli to open the box and check the contents before throwing them directly into the yard.
"Princess, it's good that the slaves and maids are here." Qing Zhi persuaded: "You drink tea in the yard, and then see if there is any problem with the things thrown out by the slaves and maids, right?" ”
Xue Jinyi shook her head, "Although the Sun family didn't start so quickly, so as not to be inseparable, we need to prepare earlier." ”
Seeing this, Qingzhi did not persuade.
The three of them were divided into three areas, and Xue Jinyi stood in front of the shelf and took down a bamboo basket from the top layer, in which several rouge jars were scattered and stacked.
Brushing the dust on the jar, the patterns on it are a little old and blurred.
She opened it, and before she could get closer, she smelled a pungent aroma, and she frowned before checking the other jars.
As she fiddled, a large cockroach was frightened and slipped away from her hand.
The cockroach has no natural predators here, and no one will clean it up, so not only is it big, but it also has a shiny back oil, and it looks like a good life.
Xue Jinyi shook her head, the cockroach didn't know how many bacteria it had on its body, and the rouge gouache in the warehouse really couldn't be used.
On the other side, Qingzhi was fine, Qingli was already pale, and she endured the discomfort and continued to check.
Xue Jinyi checked all the jars in the bamboo basket, and then carried the bamboo basket to the yard.
"Little, miss...... Aren't you afraid? Qingli asked tremblingly when she saw her come back.
Xue Jinyi smiled: "You see that the insect is fleeing fast, is it afraid of you, so what are you afraid of it doing?" ”
"But...... How disgusting? The oriole shuddered.
Although she has been trained by the grandmother of the eldest princess's mansion, she is much more well-behaved and sensible than before, but she has never been exposed to these things.
Xue Jinyi said: "I have seen in the book that this insect can be fried and dipped in seasonings, which is very delicious." ”
"......" Qingli wanted to vomit a little, but when she thought of Miss's superb cooking skills, she suddenly yearned for it, and those insects were not too hateful.
"Go ahead." Xue Jinyi said with a smile.
After a while, Qinglan came back and checked with them.
"Everyone must check carefully, and if you are not sure about something, put it here." Xue Jinyi commanded.
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard someone behind her softly call her name.
"Ah Jin."
Xue Jinyi looked back, and couldn't help but smile on her face.
"Xuan, are you here?" She threw herself over, but when she saw her dusty hands, she smiled helplessly.
"Master Yonghua, I've already said it." Pu Yangxuan raised his hand to remove the cotton wool-like dust hanging on the bead hairpin for her, and gently wiped the ash off her face with his sleeve, "What's wrong here?" ”
"Something's wrong." Xue Jinyi simply told him the situation, "...... The people were easily driven away, but there were still troubles left. Do you know what illegal things are in the East Market? ”
"In addition to human trafficking, the treasures stolen and looted from the rich and noble," Pu Yangxuan returned to the shelf with her, inspecting the contents of the bamboo basket with her, "and there are also some witches, poisons, and things from the court of the previous dynasty." ”
Xue Jinyi looked around again, "People and treasures occupy a large area, and it is impossible to hide in such a warehouse. Witch ...... What does the Sun family want this kind of thing for? Poison is easy to hide, it's possible, but why put it here and it's inconvenient to use? ”
"Could it be from the former palace?" Qing Zhi asked softly.
Pu Yangxuan's face was gloomy, "After my father became emperor, most of the things in the palace of the former dynasty were destroyed, unless it was a diluted treasure and was locked in a treasure house, which was impossible for ordinary people to touch. And when it moved. Chaos, there are indeed some things scattered to the people, but once they are discovered, they will all be punished and sentenced to beheading, and even the three tribes will be implicated. ”
"......" Xue Jinyi gasped, Ah Xuan was already disgusted by the emperor because of his biological mother, and if he was stained with the palace treasures of the previous dynasty, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Qing Zhi said: "King Chu, princess, according to the slave's opinion, it is better to resell this shop and find another place, right?" ”
"This is indeed a one-and-done solution......" Xue Jinyi looked at the gray rouge jar in front of her.
"However, we must know what the Sun family has done." Pu Yangxuan answered.
"Yes," Xue Jinyi smiled, "It's still Ah Xuan who understands me." If we can't find out and resell it, won't it hurt the person who took over? And the Sun family will definitely be ready to harm us with these things now, how can we miss the opportunity to let them experience that 'harming others will end up harming themselves'? ”
Qingzhi and the others listened and continued to check hard.
"What else could there be?" Xue Jinyi kicked away a "squeaky" rat and picked up a string of pearl necklaces that fell on the ground, "Could it be some jewelry from the previous dynasty, and it can be inconspicuous if it is hidden in it?" ”
"Everything in the palace of the former dynasty will have a special mark on it." Pu Yangxuan took the pearl necklace, "It's easy to tell." If you want to know what else will ......" he turned his head sideways and stared at Xue Jinyi's face with a deep gaze, "I have to go to the black market." ”
"Well," Xue Jinyi nodded, "The Sun family is greedy for money, and they will definitely do the most profitable business, and it will be easier to guess if they go to the black market to understand the market." ”
Pu Yangxuan remembered that he had promised Xue Jinyi to take her to the black market to see and learn, so he held her hand and said softly: "When we go to the black market, we need to prepare well, and we can't be in a hurry." ”
"Huh?" Xue Jinyi was surprised, "I thought you were going to ...... by yourself"
Pu Yangxuan smiled and lightly tapped the tip of her nose, "Do you think that you are a burden that will cause trouble?" ”
"Not really!" Xue Jinyi straightened her back.
Pu Yangxuan clenched her hand, "Husband and wife are of the same heart, and their profits are golden." ”
Xue Jinyi laughed.
Qinglan looked at their appearance, covered her mouth and smiled.
What a fairy couple......
If it weren't for the fear of causing them trouble, I really wanted to follow them and see how they worked together to break into the black market.
If it is written in a script, it must be wonderful!
Half an hour later, Xue Jinyi cleaned up, came out of the shop, pointed to a few places casually, and instructed Qingzhi, who was holding a thick roll of rice paper, "And here, there, all need to be changed." Alas, really, no wonder there are no guests coming to the door, where is such a layout like a rouge gouache seller. ”
Qing Zhi responded: "Yes, princess." ”
"Oh yes." Xue Jinyi pointed to the plaque above her head again, "This will be demolished now." ”
The two people who were hiding nearby saw Princess Chu's posture, looked at each other, and slipped away quietly.
Pu Yangxuan whispered in Xue Jinyi's ear: "The person is gone." ”
Xue Jinyi breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll start looking for craftsmen to redecorate tomorrow, so that I can stay in the shop for a longer time, so that I can find something like that as soon as possible!" ”
