Power and Empire Chapter 321: The Mystery of Tipati (1)
The Eryi maid’s face hesitated, as if she wanted something to hide, Safin’s red-to-stone jewels, every piece of Safin ruby jewelry is the king of luxury goods, at every turn, more than 100,000 gold coins are worth it. It is worth the annual income of a middle-class family, even a few wealthy families in Kyoto may not be able to have such a big hand. Sorry, we don’t have Safin Rubies here! "The green girl's contemptuous eyes stopped for a while on the fat man's bloated ordinary clothes, and she simply rejected the fat man, her eyes rolled,
From the table, he took out a gold box decorated with beautiful lines, opened his fingers lightly, and a flash of emerald green appeared, and a string of green gems flashing with warm and moist water appeared, and his voice was coldly introduced to the fat man
"If you need a jewelry that can increase your value, I suggest you choose the turquoise crimson moonstone. This is a treasure produced in the deep sea. There are only ten strings in Kyoto. It will definitely make you a big show in the banquet. "The fat man looked at the turquoise Philip Moonstone, which looks great, his eyebrows are frowning. The turquoise scarlet moonstone is not unusual in the southern coast. The Hulin people once offered a hundred catties as a gift. She was given to Jones Nellie by the fat man to make a bedroom screen. The girl in green used this cheap gem to fool herself, which was obviously bullying herself, a stranger who didn't know the goods.
Seeing the fat man’s hesitation, the girl in green thought that this vulgar mob was really shocked by the "treasure" she took out. She was happy that she had caught a big silly fish, and quickly picked up a green The golden box of pine, feather, moon and stone, Bai Zhe’s fingers follow the delicate lines on the edge of the box
"Look, your sir, this box is the work of the most famous engraver in Kyoto, Master Antuna. It uses the most precious threaded gold. Only this box is worth at least one thousand gold coins. This expensive box is equipped with The precious green pine Feiyue, as long as you take it out, it will definitely become the focus of the entire banquet! The price is not expensive, a total of a thousand gold coins is enough.
The green-clothed girl looked at the liver with a smile on her mouth. From the past, as long as she said this, these ignorant mobsters would happily pay and be conspicuous. It doesn't need much money, it is the choice of these mobsters. The silly fat man in front of him obviously belongs to this kind. Not bad! good stuff! I heard that this thing is good for making screens, so let's get a hundred catties first! "The fat man nodded his head calmly. In fact, he was warm in his heart. He decided to teach this eye-opening woman a lot. In the face of the girl in green, he took out from his arms a business alliance with gold thread embroidered on the edge. The bill of exchange shook in front of the girl in green, placed it gently on the table, with a smirk at the corner of his mouth and asked, "I wonder if the money is enough? ". One hundred thousand gold tickets!" The green-clothed girl's eyes were round, and she shouted in panic, "His. There was an inhalation sound in the whole store. Two hundred thousand gold tickets for the business alliance. I only heard about it before. Really It was the first time I saw that all the maids gathered around, staring dullly at the gold ticket embroidered with gold thread,
The smile on the green-clothed girl's face solidified a little "hundred catties." The green-clothed girl's mouth was bitter, and the pretty face with a smile on her face was uglier than crying. This time she might have run into someone who shouldn't be offended! A trace of panic spread in her heart, like a mountain torrent bursting a bank, impacting her thoughts,
"Are you guys selling?" The fat man was still stupid and asked in a naive way
"This silly fat man must have done it deliberately!" The green-clothed girl looked at the fat man, gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart,
The silly fat man is obviously a person who knows the goods. One hundred thousand gold tickets are indeed enough to buy a thousand catties of turquoise moonstone. The question is where can I find a hundred catties of pine green moonstone! Although the turquoise and scarlet moonstone is not very valuable, it is also a medium gemstone anyway. It’s a great thing that the entire Kyoto can make up ten catties
The fat man's silly smile was like a knife stabbing her eyes, and the girl felt like a clown for people to visit. Although using turquoise and scarlet moonstone to deceive people who do not know the details, it is a traditional technique in the jewelry industry. But being humiliated like this still makes her unbearable, but she dare not leave, so she can only stand there stupidly,
Because the girl in green knows that the people who can have this kind of large denomination gold ticket in the business alliance are often the big businessmen in the business alliance. This kind of person can easily take a small shop like his own family with one finger. Overwhelmed, if this stupid fat man is really ruthless, the store that has been inherited by the family for a hundred years will be over!
As soon as the atmosphere in the store dropped to freezing point.
"Yes, I'm sorry! We don't have a hundred catties of green pine scarlet moonstone". After a long while, the green-clothed girl responded. Her face was extremely embarrassed, her voice was as low as a groan, and her sense of shame made her whole like a steamed crab, pink from the inside out, and the slender green dress was trembling slightly because of excessive excitement
"No! Then I said it earlier, I thought you were selling your turquoise screen to me!" The fat man said stupidly, taking the 100,000 gold tickets back into his pocket casually, without any prudence. Means, it seems that what I picked up just now was a piece of torn paper,
"The little fat man's words made the girl in green clothes dumbfounded. Although Gongna Ermo Moonstone is not very conquerable and precious. But it is not luxurious enough to make a screen. It is in the eyes of the fat man who does not know the goods. That thing It is to make the material for the screen. At first, the fat man was planning to make the bed. Later, after considering whether there would be a problem of ore radiation, he temporarily changed his mind
A man dressed as a middle-aged nobleman hurriedly descended from the stairs, and apologized as he ran, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, our people are so rude, I am the owner of this shop, Tipati Rushe, also Please don't see me pity!"
"Tipati Lushe?" The fat man frowned slightly, as if he had heard of this surname there. Since the boss personally apologized, naturally he would not be too truthful and waved his hand to Tipatti Lushe." Let’s forget about this. I want to buy some accessories this time. I heard that you are the best shop in Kyoto. I hope it won’t let me down!"
"Of course, our Tipatti family jewelry is the most famous in Kyoto!" The middle-aged aristocrat was relieved when he saw that the fat man was no longer pursuing it, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Hastily led the fat man and others to the VIP room on the second floor.
"This is an amber bead from the northern grassland! This is a golden scallop from the southern deep sea." The middle-aged nobleman sent more than a dozen precious accessories to the fat man.
"Are there any Safin Ruby jewelry?" The fat man once again mentioned something that made him profound. The middle-aged aristocrat had a weird face. He paused when he introduced his lips. His face moved, his face hesitating just like the maid outside. This On the contrary, it aroused the curiosity of the fat man, he couldn't help asking again, "Does your shop even have Safin Rubies?"
"You really don't know, or pretend to be stupid!" Shengzi's words seemed to touch the pain in the heart of the middle-aged aristocrat. The face of the well-trained middle-aged aristocrat turned pale, his eyes fixed on the fat man, and the corners of his mouth twitched. "Even if your Excellency is an important person in the business alliance, you don't need to use this method to humiliate our Tipati family! If you want us to leave Kyoto, we will go!"
"Sorry, if my words offend you, I apologize!" The fat man's face was dazed, and he was confused. He didn't know where he was wrong, but it was obvious that he was wrong. The middle-aged nobleman saw the fat man. With an innocent look on his face, knowing that he might have misunderstood the fat man, his face softened and said, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood just now. It seems that you really don't know the rules of our Tipatti family. The gem world in Kyoto knows about our Tippa. The mention family doesn’t sell accessories made by that thing!"
The fat man finally heard his eyebrows. It turned out that the problem was with "Safin Ruby"
"Your Excellency should be a nobleman, right?" The middle-aged nobleman asked in a low voice with embarrassment, "Yes, I am probably too!" The fat man nodded slightly, the middle-aged nobleman let out a long sigh, his face dignified. The voice said with a heavy voice, "Then, you should have heard of the Wentun Electoral War eighty years ago!"
"The Electoral War! Are you talking about the rebellion of the Wentun family?" The fat man looked astonished. In order to make up for his lack of knowledge about the electorate, the fat man deliberately consulted Isamoril, who is familiar with southern history.
Know that 80 years ago, the Southern Wentun family, one of the five major electors, assembled the largest lords in the south at that time and opposed the royal family’s rule in the south. This war lasted for eight years in the south. When the Wentun family and the royal family were exhausted, several large families in the north announced their support for the king’s orthodoxy, and the Wentun family was defeated.
A dozen large families fell apart in front of the powerful King ** team, and the originally relatively strong southern power was also in a slump~IndoMTL.com~ and chose to support the king's northern power, with the deliberate support of the royal family, Xun Vietnam It has become the most advanced area in the kingdom, and the south has gradually become synonymous with backwardness and wildness
"Yes, it's the **** Wentun family!" The middle-aged nobleman flashed a spiteful light in his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Back then, my Tipati family was one of the kingdom's five duke families. It not only controlled the entire west, but also had the emperor. The glory of Hou is because of being involved in the Wentun family rebellion, that led to the abolition of the title and the tragic end of the division of the territory! All this is because of that thing!"
"Tippati! Electoral family!" When the fat man heard this, he almost jumped up from his seat.
No way, you can find the Tipati family that has disappeared in the long river of history if you find any store by yourself? The fat man finally knew where he was wrong. It is said that the Wentun family back then used a Safin ruby, known as the largest in the mainland, as a gift, and formed an alliance with the Tipati family in the west.
Unfortunately, the Tipati family had not had time to send troops, the main force of the Wentun family was defeated by the cavalry group from the northern part of the kingdom, and the Tipati family was also implicated. Forced to surrender most of the territory and become a humiliated family. This is the glorious Vicia, almost like the disgusting beggar on the roadside. As a descendant of the Tipati family, he hates the Ruby of Safin so much. I can understand it
