After finally coaxing Cui'er to leave, she turned around and retreated to the shop, took out the jade pendant that Chu Jiangnan gave her, and threw it on the counter: "Look at how much this is worth?"

The things that Prince Nan carries with him must be valuable. She is now anxious to take off her hands because after taking off her jade pendant, she has nothing to do with Prince Nan anymore.

Anyway, it was dark last night and no one could recognize anyone. Now the pawnshop shop owner is afraid that he would not recognize himself. Since that is the case, it would be better to take off the jade pendant early.

The shopkeeper picked up the jade pendant, and after a glance, his eyes glowed. His greedy expression could not be blocked even if he wanted to.

But he quickly packed up his amazing expression. When he looked back at Murong Qiqi, there was only peace left, without any turmoil: "This jade pendant is quite valuable, I will give you five hundred taels."

"Okay, I won't do it anymore." Qiqi reached out and took the jade pendant back, turned around and walked out.

After a moment of silence, the shopkeeper quickly walked out of the counter and hurriedly chased after him: "Girl, why don't you take it? This price is easy to discuss."

"The shopkeeper is not interested in doing business with me at all. He just throws me such a joke price. Why do I have to continue to negotiate with the shopkeeper? Isn't this a waste of each other's time?" Murong Qiqi seemed really not interested and kept trying to walk out the door.

The shopkeeper stepped forward two steps in front of her and said with a smile: "The little one was so clumsy just now that he didn't see the value of the jade pendant. Can the girl let the little one take a look so that the little one can estimate it again?"

Qiqi raised his eyebrows and looked at him sideways, with a little uncertainty flashing in his eyes: "Do you really have the sincerity to do business with me?"

"This is natural." The shopkeeper took the jade pendant she handed over with his hands and looked at it carefully again. After a long time, he turned his face straight, looked down at her and asked, "I don't know where the jade pendant came from?"

"What's the gift from a friend? If you are unhappy in this business, I'll just go to another pawnshop." She reached out and wanted to get the jade pendant back.

The shopkeeper took a step back and was obviously unwilling to return the jade pendant to her. He immediately smiled and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, the little one is just asking casually, girl, don't mind this jade pendant is probably worth three thousand taels, I wonder what the girl wants?"

Murong Qiqi had a calm eyebrows and his face was still not very good-looking.

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment before saying, "There is a small one that can offer the highest price. If the girl is unwilling, the small one has nothing to say."

"Five thousand taels." Murong Qiqi said calmly, his voice very calm, as if five thousand taels were nothing to her.

The shopkeeper hesitated, was silent for a while before shook his head and sighed: "The price of 5,000 taels is too high. It's not that the small one doesn't want to trade with the girl, but this business really can't be done."

He handed the jade pendant back to Qiqi, and he sighed: "Although jade is a good jade, it's really not worth the price. Girl, please take the jade pendant away."

"The business is unsuccessful and righteous. I hope there is still a chance to cooperate next time." Qiqi really took the jade pendant back and walked out the door without any nostalgia.

In fact, she was a little nervous in her heart. She was just betting whether the shopkeeper would like to agree to her price. If she didn't want to, she would be afraid that the jade pendant would be worth 4,000 taels of silver. In this way, she would have a clear idea if she traded with the next pawnshop.

Sure enough, when she just stepped over the steps and was about to step out of the door, the boss's low voice came from behind: "Five thousand taels are five thousand taels, this time, girl should not be fooled by the younger ones anymore. Five thousand taels are absolutely worth it."

Qiqi curled his thin lips and smiled with satisfaction. Then he looked back at him, blinked his beautiful eyes and said in a shallow voice: "I have another condition..."

I walked out of the pawnshop door and touched the dozen silver notes in my arms. I felt sweet in my heart. I really never thought that a small jade pendant was worth so much, but I was afraid it was worth far more than five thousand taels.

But you should always be a little sincere in your life. If you say 5,000 taels, it is 5,000 taels. It is enough for you to spend money on yourself, and you cannot be insatiable.

There are still a few ambergris around my waist. Although the price that can be sold is simply not worth mentioning compared to these 5,000 taels, the small amount is also money. You can't forget how poor you are on weekdays just because you have big money.

So she took three ambergris plants and stepped on the street again, looking for suitable shops along the way.

As for Murong Qiqi left, a slender figure appeared at the door of the pawnshop and came to the boss in a blink of an eye.

He was wearing a wide-brimmed hat, and his big hat blocked most of his face. If he didn't look carefully, he couldn't see clearly his face. However, with his facial features exposed outside, it was not difficult to tell that he was definitely a good-looking man.

"I want the jade pendant that the girl was just now." The voice was very light, but it was extremely cold.

"Mr.... Master, what does this mean?" The shopkeeper quickly hid the jade pendant in his arms, looked up at him, and smiled: "We are a pawnshop here, which only provides pawn services to customers and does not sell goods. Please..."

With a "bang", a long sword was placed on the counter. The young man in black tilted his hat slightly, staring at the shopkeeper with a pair of cold eyes, and his thin lips opened, and two cold words were overflowing: "I said I want that jade pendant, I will give you five thousand taels. I'll give it to you. Do you want your life or a jade pendant, you can choose it yourself."

Another "bang" sound, five thousand taels of silver bills fell on the counter.

The shopkeeper was so scared by the sword that he was trembling. He knew that he could not anger the other party, but he was reluctant to let it go.

What is five thousand taels worth for this priceless jade pendant? If you change the jade pendant, you can sell it at least for a high price of ten thousand taels.

"This... this store opens to do business and never do business that loses money, young master, you..."

"So I'll give you five thousand taels, don't waste my time." The big palm fell on the scabbard, and the long finger raised it lightly. With a "clang", most of the long sword was deshewn out, and the sword body suddenly had a cold light.

A murderous aura rushed towards him, and even the shopkeeper who didn't understand martial arts was frightened and his heart contracted, and he even said something unscrupulously.

He listened to the man in black and said in a deep voice: "As long as my sword is unsheathed, it will never return to the sheath without blood. Is it a life or you want this five thousand taels of silver? Anyway, I am determined to win this jade pendant."

The shopkeeper was so scared that he even felt difficult to breathe. He wanted to open his mouth and call for help but did not dare. Although the public security in the imperial city was good, he was threatened in broad daylight. As long as he called, there would be people from the government coming in immediately.

But he was very scared, afraid that the sword had cut his neck before the government arrived.

The man in black in front of him was covered in a cold and silent aura. This breath alone was enough to make people timid.

He hesitated, and finally took out the jade pendant from his arms, handed it to him respectfully with both hands, and said in a trembling voice: "Big... uncle, this jade pendant is my master."

The man in black snorted coldly, picked his long fingers and raised his long sword Sun Jian back into the scabbard.

The shopkeeper only felt that the figure flashed in front of him. The flash was too fast. The cold aura forced him to close his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, there was no figure in the man in black in front of him? The jade pendant in his hand had long disappeared.

On the counter, there were five thousand taels of silver notes he left behind.

All this happened in a blink of an eye, so quickly that it was completely overwhelming.

Holding the five thousand taels, he sighed softly, just thinking that he had a daydream and never dared to think about this jade pendant again.

As the saying goes, enemies don’t get together.

Murong Qiqi didn't expect that the imperial city looked so big, but in fact it was just so small. So, you could meet enemies on the street.

Just glanced at her, she turned around and planned to step away.

It’s not because I’m afraid, but because I’m really annoyed and don’t want to waste time with these people.

But it is obvious that some people can't see her well. If she meets her, how could she let her go easily?

"What a coincidence, I actually met the Seventh Emperor Girl here." The charming and gentle voices that were as messed up as a yellow oriole came out of the valley came from behind. I don't have to think about it and knew that the Sixth Emperor Girl came from her. "Seventh Emperor Girl also thought of seeing the newly arrived batch of jadeites in Cuifangzhai, right?"

Qiqi paused, looked back and smiled at her, and said indifferently: "No, I just walked around casually, I still..."

Before the words "I have something to do" could be expressed, Chu Mingzhu next to Murong Susu sneered, "Since you are here, why not be together. By the way, this princess seems to have never visited Cuifangzhai with the Seventh Princess."

She raised her proud chin, and immediately two palace maids who didn't look very strong but had absolutely no weak martial arts skills came to Qiqi's side. It was obvious that Princess Mingzhu didn't plan to let her go.

Qiqi had no choice but to smile and said, "Since the third princess Jin Yan invited me, why would I miss it? Let's take a look with the princess and the emperor's sister."

She was all out and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to go in. She just saw that she was dressed simply and was a poor man, and wanted to find an opportunity to embarrass her. How could she not understand these boring tricks of the golden branches and jade leaves?

Murong Susu was enthusiastic and kept urging Qiqi to walk with them, stepping into Cuifangzhai together.

To Qiqi's surprise, there were actually two heavyweight figures in Cuifangzhai. Prince Yun seemed to be very idle recently. Today, he was accompanying Concubine Yi to this largest jewelry store in the imperial city to see a new batch of jadeites that have recently arrived.

Seeing Murong Qiqi and Mingzhu wearing plain clothes and dressed like maids, Su Su entered the door together. Concubine Yi narrowed her cloud eyes slightly, and a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes.
