The Evil Mistress's Killing Crazy Daily
Chapter 340: Ivory Carving of the Heavenly Palace Celebrating Birthday
On the other side, the capital city.
After seeing Yin Xiaorou off for breakfast, Ruan Yunluo, thinking about the birthday gift from the Empress Dowager, took a carriage to Maoer Lane and entered the Treasure Pavilion.
She first looked around the lobby of the Treasure Pavilion. Seeing that the store had added a lot of new things, she took the initiative to pick out some very interesting little things for Wanqi Futian Shuangshuang and Nanny Wan.
After adding another jade pendant to herself, she looked towards the counter with a smile, "Boss, do you have anything else here?"
If there is, she will take another look.
If not, she would go to another store as soon as possible.
"Yes, of course..."
Seeing Ruan Yunluo's generosity, the shopkeeper smiled and walked out of the counter, and came over to entertain her personally. "Madam, the second floor of the store has been cleaned up recently, and there are a lot of good things added. How about I take you to the second floor to have a look?"
"Ah."
Ruan Yunluo nodded, and took Tian Shuangshuang and the other two with him, and followed the shopkeeper to the second floor.
The things on the second floor are obviously much better than those on the first floor.
Although the things on the first floor are precious, most of them are gold, silver, gemstones, jade, agate and the like, which can basically be bought in any gold and silver shop, but the styles here are more exquisite.
And these things on the second floor...
Ruan Yunluo took a quick look and found that most of them were treasures such as kingfisher feathers, ivory, mother-of-pearl, and kesi silk.
Any one of them is worth ten of the ones downstairs.
After walking around the second floor carefully, Ruan Yunluo stopped and looked at an ivory bracelet. Seeing that the bracelet was carved with clouds and was delicate and beautiful, she couldn't help but think that it would look good on Ruan Yunqi's wrist.
Unable to resist a smile, Ruan Yunluo looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, I want this ivory bracelet. And please pack the ivory paperweight next to it for me as well."
"Yes."
The shopkeeper nodded happily.
He hurriedly took down the snow-white bracelet and paperweight from the treasure stand and handed them to the maid next to him. He asked the maid to wrap the treasure with a brocade handkerchief and put it into the brocade box. After wrapping it carefully, he looked at Ruan Yunluo with a smile, "Madam, do you have any other favorites? I can introduce them to you, and then pack them all up and send them to your carriage."
"Nothing."
Somewhat disappointed, Ruan Yunluo shook his head.
Although the things on the second floor are nice, they are fine for daily giving as gifts. However, they are obviously not qualified to be used as birthday gifts for the Empress Dowager on her 80th birthday.
"lady……"
The shopkeeper observed Ruan Yunluo's expression and saw that she seemed a little disappointed, so he asked curiously, "Madam, are you not satisfied with the things here? Or if you have any other requests, you can tell me.
Our Treasure Pavilion's warehouse is the most comprehensive warehouse in the entire capital. No matter what you want, we guarantee that it will be available in our Treasure Pavilion's warehouse."
"really?"
Seeing that the shopkeeper was quite arrogant, Ruan Yunluo smiled and asked curiously, "Does your store really have everything? What if you don't have anything?"
"If not, give me three months. Within three months, as long as the thing exists in our Tianzhong, as long as it can be bought and sold, our Treasure Pavilion will ensure that it will be obtained by you..."
Having said this, the shopkeeper felt that his tone was too arrogant, so he paused for a moment, then smiled and made up his mind, "Of course, things are unpredictable, and we can't be so absolute. But let's take a step back and say that if even our Treasure Pavilion can't get what you want, then no one in this world can get what you want."
"I want a dignified and decent baby suitable for birthday celebrations. Do you have any?"
"Congratulations on your birthday?"
Hearing the word "birthday celebration", the shopkeeper smiled and understood a little, "Madam, you are here for the eightieth birthday of the noble in the palace, right? It just so happens that our Treasure Pavilion has prepared some treasures for this occasion. Please wait a moment, I will send someone to the warehouse to get them."
As he said this, he invited Ruan Yunluo to sit down.
Signaling the maid beside him to make a pot of good tea for Ruan Yunluo, he walked to the door and gave a few orders. Soon, the servant in the warehouse carefully brought in three treasures covered with brocade.
"Madam, look."
Signaling the servants to carry the treasures and line up, the shopkeeper reached out and unveiled the first treasure.
The first treasure is a filigree hanging screen with the word "longevity" on it.
The bottom of the hanging screen is made of rosewood, covered with a layer of red kesi fabric with eight treasures cloud pattern. The eight treasures cloud pattern floats slightly on the fabric, symbolizing good fortune and auspiciousness.
The big golden character "Shou" on the hanging screen has powerful fonts, which is obviously a handwritten draft by a famous artist. Then the craftsmen covered it with gold wire, creating this solemn and festive hanging screen with red background and gold filigree character "Shou".
After the shopkeeper gave a long explanation, he finally recommended it to Ruan Yunluo, "Madam, when it comes to celebrating a birthday, there is nothing more suitable than this hanging screen."
"Ah."
Looking at the red-background golden longevity hanging screen in front of him, Ruan Yunluo smiled and nodded, "It is indeed festive and prosperous, but this gold and red color seems a bit vulgar."
"Ma'am, you are right."
The shopkeeper agreed with a smile.
The shopkeeper was not at all annoyed when his food was said to be vulgar. He thought clearly that in business, the key is to first suppress and then praise. The appetizer must be used as a contrast to highlight the preciousness of the main dish.
He waved his hand, signaling the servants to put away the first item. Then he unveiled the second item and introduced it to Ruan Yunluo with a smile, "Madam, look, this is a white porcelain peony branch ornament.
This section of the ornament, from the stamens to the petals to the branches, is made of white porcelain as thin as a cicada's wing. Every peony on the branch and every petal on the peony can shine through in the sun.
In terms of elegance, there is really no ornament more elegant than this one.”
"Yes, Not Bad."
Ruan Yunluo became interested when he saw this.
She stood up and walked closer, looking at the peony branch ornament in front of her, which was as long as her forearm, lifelike and even translucent, and nodded with great satisfaction.
This thing really meets her requirements.
Having already decided what he wanted to choose, Ruan Yunluo looked at the third thing next to it with some curiosity.
Looking at the third ornament covered with brocade cloth, which was as high as a forearm, Ruan Yunluo looked at the shopkeeper next to him curiously, "Shopkeeper, what is this last thing?"
"This last item is the most valuable treasure of our store..." The shopkeeper smiled mysteriously and carefully uncovered the brocade.
"Wow!"
As soon as the brocade cloth was unveiled, a burst of excited footsteps came from the door behind Ruan Yunluo, heading straight for the ivory carving of the Heavenly Palace in front of her...
