After returning from Zheng's house, Yang Xuangan did not ask Yang Yuanqing about the specific situation (the latest chapter of Wu Dong Qiankun 81zw), his son had received news that Zheng Mansion had politely rejected this marriage, which made Yang Xuangan really annoyed, this is what his father meant, but the Zheng family did not appreciate it, although his wife did not say it explicitly, Yang Xuangan also vaguely guessed that the Zheng family disliked Yuanqing, and it was the consistent tradition of the Zheng family to attach importance to the bloodline of the Zheng family.

Since the Zheng family did not agree, Yang Xuangan no longer mentioned this matter to Yuanqing, but in the past two days, the envoys of Qimin Khan, Khitan, Goguryeo, Silla and other countries have entered Beijing to congratulate the new emperor on his accession to the throne.

Early in the morning, Yang Yuanqing left Yang's mansion and went to the metropolis, the day after tomorrow is the birthday of Princess Leping, and the imperial court invited officials above the five grades in Beijing, and he also received an invitation, so that he did not have to go with the king of Jin.

Yang Yuanqing is extremely independent, he neither wants others to say that he is the grandson of Yang Su, nor does he want to be branded as the king of Jin, although Yang Zhao, the king of Jin, is very close to him, but he has always kept a certain distance from Yang Zhao.

Although Yang Zhao proposed to participate in Princess Leping's birthday banquet this time, since Yang Yuanqing agreed to go, he wanted to participate in the birthday banquet as an independent person, and did not want to become Yang Zhao's attendant or the like.

Since he wants to participate in Princess Leping's birthday banquet as an independent person, then he must give a birthday gift, although Yang Yuanqing brought back a few grassland specialties from Biansai, but it was for his aunt and Niuniu, after thinking twice, he still decided to go to the metropolitan city to buy a gift.

Yang Yuanqing was still wearing his blue cloth robe, with a leather belt around his waist, and the leather belt was empty, although he was given a purple gold fish bag, he refused to hang it on the leather belt to show his glory, and rode on horseback, and soon came to the metropolis.

Compared with the city of Liren, the goods sold in the metropolitan market are of a higher grade and the price is also expensive, and they are generally supplied to the famous and powerful people, so there are not many shops, only half of the price of the city of Liren, and they are also classified by various industries.

Yang Yuanqing was familiar with the road and went directly to the jewelry store, found the Baibaozhai jewelry store, he was very familiar with this store, the first money leopard he hit that year was sold to the shopkeeper of Baibao Zhai Wu, and then he hunted the money leopard and the clouded leopard one after another, and it was Baibao Zhai who found a buyer for him.

"Yo! Isn't this Brother Yang? I haven't been here for years, and I've grown so tall. ”

Yang Yuanqing turned over and dismounted, jokingly: "Bao'er, why are you still a buddy?" Wu Yingli doesn't promote you, is he there? ”

Guy Bao'er scratched his head and whispered to Yuan Qing: "You know that skinner, he only cares about himself." ”

"Huh! Is this what he has always been? ”

"Yes, there are customers selling jewelry, Brother Yang, you are ....."

Seeing that Yang Yuanqing didn't take the prey, he didn't know what he meant, Yang Yuanqing smiled and said: "I'm here to buy two pieces of jewelry, I want to have good jewelry, do you want to collect gold coins here?" ”

Because of the high gold content of the Eastern Roman Empire, it was very popular in the Sui Dynasty, although it was not the legal tender of the Sui Dynasty, but many large merchants accepted it, and a gold coin could be worth ten yuan.

"You can use the gold coins of the country, where did the little brother get them?"

"I exchanged it with a Sogdian merchant."

Yang Yuanqing walked into the store with his buddy, the store's guest hall is not big, there are no windows and the like, and there are no public jewelry hanging on the wall.

They walked into the inner hall, and there were five or six couches in the inner hall, which was the trading place, perhaps because of the earlier time, there was no one in the inner hall, only the big shopkeeper Wu Yingli was receiving a guest selling jewelry.

Wu Yingli is an old friend of Yang Yuanqing, the first money leopard that Yang Yuanqing hunted was sold to this person, Wu Yingli has a nickname in the East Market, called Wu Peeling, he is extremely ruthless in exploiting his family, how can anyone sell jewelry to him?

Yang Yuanqing couldn't help but look at the person who sold jewelry, this is a young man, twenty-four or five years old, medium in stature, with a delicate appearance, wearing a gray cloth robe, wearing a flat scarf, the clothes and plain napkins are a little shabby, it can be seen that this is very shabby, he is accompanied by a young lady of about six or seven years old, although she is young, she looks pretty and cute, a pair of quiet and bright big eyes, a well-behaved and lovely nose, bright red lips, she is very quiet, sitting obediently on the side, it should be a man's daughter, the same as her father, She also wears a burlap dress, but it is clean and tidy, which makes people like it.

As soon as Yang Yuanqing sat down, he heard Wu Yingli's professional knife raised, "This son, where did you get this emerald?" If the government knows, I'm afraid you will have a lawsuit. ”

"This is my ancestral heirloom, what does it have to do with the government? If you want to buy it, you can buy it, if you don't buy it, I'll go to another house. ”

The man was quite tough, so that Wu Yingli's exploiting knife was cut into the air, Wu Yingli laughed dryly, and said: "Your emerald is good, but your price is too high, I will give you a maximum of 700 hanging money, can you sell it?" ”

"This shopkeeper, you are too ruthless! This pair of bracelets is worth at least 2,000 hangs, and I want 1,000 hangs is already half of the price, and you have to lower the price again, no, at least 1,000 hangs. ”

Yang Yuanqing looked at it, and saw a pair of bracelets carved with emeralds on the table, the material was green and crystalline, with a kind of water-like delicate color, without a trace of miscellaneous style and simplicity, at a glance it was an extremely precious thing, and it was indeed not expensive to sell a thousand hangs.

Wu Yingli shook his head, "Although your jade bracelet is good, but ordinary people really don't dare to buy it, you should understand what I mean, so I can only pay up to seven hundred hangs, if you don't sell it, I will return it to you." ”

The man's face was slightly red, it seemed that Wu Yingli's words hit his point, he didn't want to sell too cheaply, but he was in urgent need of money, so it was really difficult for him to decide.

Wu Yingli's eyes were vicious, and he had already seen that the other party was tempted, so he encouraged him again, "How about it, I agreed, I will give you the money immediately, and it is to give you gold, and now the general store can't pay for gold." ”

The man's heart was horizontal and he was about to agree, but Yang Yuanqing smiled on the side and said, "A thousand hangs, I bought it." ”

Wu Yingli seemed to have stepped on the air and almost slipped to the ground, he turned his head, his face was full of resentment, this is his shop, who dares to rob his business in his shop, but he recognized Yang Yuanqing at once, and was stunned.

"Brother Yang, is that you?"

Yang Yuanqing slowly stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "Old Wu! If you are too ruthless, beware of peeling your skin. ”

Wu Yingli knew that Yang Yuanqing was strong in martial arts, and now he is so tall, it will not be simple, if he fights, a few guards in his store are not opponents at all, he will suffer a big loss, this pair of emerald jade bracelets is extremely expensive, and everyone in Beijing will compete for it, he can sell it for at least six or seven thousand dollars, this big deal, he doesn't want to give it to Yang Yuanqing,

"This.... Good Reading Pavilion! Since Brother Yang interceded, then it was decided to have a thousand hangs, and we made a deal. ”

Unexpectedly, the man shook his head and picked up the jade bracelet from the table, "I won't sell it to you, I will sell it to this son." ”

He said to Yang Yuanqing: "A thousand hangs, we will make a deal." ”

Wu Yingli was anxious, "Reading Pavilion like this!" I'll give you fifteen hundred hangings, and you sell them to me. ”

Yang Yuanqing only had one hundred Roman gold coins left on his body, he spread his hands, and said helplessly: "I only have a total of 1,000 hangs, and I can't take out 1,500 hangs." ”

Wu Yingli was overjoyed, "Then I'll buy it, and I'll give you cash right away." ”

The young man glanced at Wu Yingli contemptuously, not ashamed of his character, he handed the jade bracelet to Yang Yuanqing, "As long as it is a thousand hangings, I will sell it to you." ”

Wu Yingli's mouth was wide open, and he couldn't close it for a long time, and the remorse in his eyes was revealed, for the sake of three hundred hangs, he actually lost a big deal with a net profit of several thousand hangs, he really peeled his skin.

The jade bracelet entered Yang Yuanqing's hand, he immediately felt a sense of warmth, and sure enough, it was extremely valuable, he took out a money bag, handed it to the young man, and said with a smile: "This is a hundred gold coins of the country, you can exchange it for a thousand hanging coins when you go to the cabinet, please take a look." ”

The young man opened the bag and took a look, then stuffed it into his arms, Yang Yuanqing smiled: "Isn't the son counting?" ”

"No, it doesn't matter if there is one more or less, thank you Yang Gongzi."

As soon as the young man arched his hand to Yang Yuanqing, he took his daughter's hand and said, "Yuexian, let's go."

Yang Yuanqing walked with him to the street, and smiled behind him: "Gongzi's surname? ”

The young man hesitated, but the daughter in his hand preemptively said: "My father's surname is Xiao, my name is Xiao Yuexian, thank you big brother." ”

"It turned out to be Xiao Gongzi!"

Yang Yuanqing smiled and saluted him, "There will be fate in the future, we will see you again." ”

"Good! See you soon. ”

The young man led his daughter and walked quickly towards the gate of the metropolis, and gradually disappeared into the crowd.

"This guy is good!"

Yang Yuanqing secretly praised in his heart, he took out this pair of emerald bracelets from his arms, the more he looked at it, the better it felt, and he would feel a kind of warmth when he put his arms on, originally he was going to buy a birthday gift for Princess Leping, but at this moment he changed his mind, this pair of bracelets he decided to give to his aunt, aunt's arm hurts, this pair of bracelets is the best for her.

As for Princess Leping, he also gave her a favor anyway, and he still had a few dollars on him, so he bought two pieces of silk for her as a birthday gift.

At this time, Wu Yingli shouted in the store: "Brother Yang, don't blame me for not reminding you, this bracelet is not for ordinary people to use, there is a line of words engraved in it, you can take a look at the Reading Pavilion yourself!" ”

Yang Yuanqing took a closer look at the inside of the bracelet again, and indeed engraved a line of small characters, "Xiao Liang Imperial Palace, Yang Yuanqing was slightly stunned, it turned out that this was the palace of the Liang Dynasty, so this young man surnamed Xiao is also a nobleman of the Liang Dynasty?"

Yang Yuanqing then bought two more silk horses in the metropolis, and the guy wrapped it for him, and he wrote a famous post and ordered the guy to send it directly to Princess Leping's Mansion for him.

Thinking that tomorrow is the birthday of Princess Leping, his clothes are either a military uniform or a blue cloth robe, which looks a little shabby, not to mention how gorgeous he needs to wear, at least to buy a passable outfit, he turned around and went to the clothes store, but after walking a few steps, he seemed to think of something, and when he touched his arms, a bitter smile gradually appeared on his face, and he found that he had nothing on his body at this time.

[Guess who this man is?] 】纟
