Chapter 112 It will happen
"How is this possible? How do you have this? Isn't it said that each national server only has one? Why do you have it?"
When the wife of Duke Qi saw the bracelet on Xu Qingyin's hand, she was completely shocked. She had never thought that a junior like him would have such a beautiful diamond on his hand.
What's more, it's pink, so its quality cannot be judged by its size. It's extremely rare.
But just now, this group of people were speechless because of his arrogance. Finally, Xu Qingyin came. They usually had a good impression of Qingyin. Now seeing her being able to vent everyone's anger, it was really refreshing.
Just now, none of them dared to speak, but now that they finally saw him being humiliated, they all began to speak up for Xu Qingyin:
"Didn't you hear what Qingyin just said? This was a gift from the Empress. She owns a ton of diamonds. If she wants to give it to someone, does she need to report it to you?"
"That's right, the diamond on Qingyin's hand is so beautiful, it's actually pink! I heard that the witch gave you thousands of diamonds, of which less than 100 were colorful. What's more, this one is pink, which is just right for a young woman. It's enough to show that the Queen really loves you."
Because they didn't want to make enemies with the Duke of Qi's family, they didn't dare to confront her directly. However, at this time, they kept praising the diamond in Xu Qingyin's hand, which was almost the same as mocking the wife of the Duke of Qi's family.
"That's right. When Qingyin came home some time ago, it was the Empress who presided over the banquet herself. Unfortunately, my family's status is too low, and I couldn't even attend the banquet. I didn't expect Qingyin to come to my place today. She is so beautiful. It's true that hearing about her is believing."
As soon as Xu Qingyin arrived, the whole topic turned to him. She had been accustomed to the wife of the Duke of Qi who was praised by everyone. In fact, he had a very similar personality to her daughter. Now the limelight was snatched away by the Xu family. She felt extremely uncomfortable.
"It's just a pink diamond, what's so good about it? I don't know how long this diamond will remain popular. It's still not as good as traditional gold and jade, which have been around for thousands of years."
He was just talking about how happy he was to have a diamond, but he changed his tone so quickly. It was really frustrating, but everyone could feel that he really had nothing to say, so no one paid any attention to him.
"Speaking of which, Qingyin, what do you think would be the most beautiful thing to make this diamond into? Does this thing really have the divine power left by the witch?"
Chu Qingyin was very happy to see everyone so enthusiastic about him.
However, he really didn't know about the divine power left by the witch. After all, he got it himself, but he bought it from those manufacturers.
"I don't know if there's divine power, but if you believe in it, it probably does. I think this would look great made into a necklace, bracelet, or ring. My mother said there will be more diamonds in the future, but they won't be as high-end as the ones in the palace. Everyone has the hope of getting one in the future."
Of course, they were sent to the palace so that the expenses for the craftsmen in front of the palace could be reduced.
However, the spending of the noble ladies in the capital should not be underestimated. The gold, silver, jade, silk and satin they use on a daily basis can fill several houses.
Even the fashionable styles in Beijing change once a month. If you accidentally wear something out of fashion, you will be laughed at at a banquet.
This is enough to show how much this group of people admire external things and how much they compete with each other.
However, since they had a lot of money and their days were long, they had a lot of free time, so this was indeed the case. However, if the craftsmen who did these jobs were slaves, it would definitely have come at the cost of many lives.
So he had the diamonds brought into the palace and had everyone in the palace start using them, so that he could officially make a name for himself and make the rich ladies in the capital follow his example.
After all, the same items used by the ladies in the palace are the best way to market to the rich young ladies from the capital.
Although they have a lot of money, it is a fixed amount, and the things they can buy are definitely fixed. If they spend the money on buying diamonds, they will definitely have less gold, silver and jade, and naturally the craftsmen will have less effort.
But at the beginning, everyone thought that such things were only available in the imperial palace, and no one had any hope. Although they yearned for it in their hearts, they had never thought that they would be able to own it one day.
When they heard Xu Qingyin say that the witch would continue to provide it one day and even let them all have it for a while, their eyes all lit up.
"Are you serious? I've actually wanted something this beautiful for a long time. Even if it's a lower-end item, it's still the same thing."
"Yes, yes, this is a diamond, such a beautiful thing. Moreover, according to legend, it has the magic of a witch. Even if it has not passed through the hands of a witch, even if it is carried by her, it will be a family heirloom in the family."
"I never thought that one day I would actually have one. Now it seems that what some people who boast about now have is nothing more than this. But is this news true?"
Xu Qingyin smiled:
"Of course this news is true. My mother is the Imperial Master and she usually talks to the witch."
Chu Qingyin really wanted to say that he had just bought the diamond himself. The diamond he bought for 100 million was worth nearly 5000 yuan, and he was just giving the best 1000 yuan of it to the palace.
Although the remaining ones are not of the same quality, they are the same things.
If they want to, of course they can.
When the news reached here, the wife of the Kung Fu family could no longer sit still. Without even saying goodbye, she slammed the door and walked out, never to come back here again.
From that day on, he didn't even go out for three months. The Queen Mother didn't scold him, but he seemed to have confined himself to the house just like his daughter.
Later I heard that although his daughter was a rioter, had made a scene, cried, and even attempted to hang herself, her mother still hurriedly married her off to the second son of a certain marquisate. The son was so dissolute that he would not even be able to inherit a title in the future.
But after all, he had been reprimanded by the Queen Mother, and he could not find a marriage with a higher-class family. His mother and even his father were really worried that their daughters would not be able to get married, so they could only respond hastily.
Now Qi Feixu, who was once very popular, has become a cause for regret, as she married such an ordinary woman.
