"Ah, that seems to be the private house of Taishi Pang's younger sister."

"Yes"

"Then if we want to buy it, can we go to your place and find you?"

"Okay, such hair accessories are priced at 10,000 taels of silver, and there are more expensive ones. I will leave at the end of September, and you will not be able to find me if you want to find them."

All the girls swallowed their saliva after hearing this, "Is this what you do?"

"No, I just saw that all the younger sisters like it, and they are so dignified and decent, unlike that lady who snatched it from me, so I am willing to share my good things."

"Hee hee, thank you sister for your compliment."

Qiao Mai nodded to them, everyone moved out of the way, and she drove the carriage to a distance.

Unexpectedly, the next day, many people sent greetings to Bichunyuan, and the old lady found her with the greetings.

"Is this a good thing you did?"

"Yeah, you can't come to the capital for nothing, you have to earn some money back."

"Then what do you sell? Fruits, vegetables?"

"Sell the hair accessories I wear on my head."

The old lady glanced at her head, "It looks good, how much do you plan to sell it for?"

"I have ten thousand taels of silver, and there are even better ones, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver,"

"A hundred thousand taels? Oh my god, what's that like?"

Qiao Mai gave her a mysterious smile, and took out a hair crown from the box he brought, the kind of hair crown that can be worn as a hat, as soon as he took it out, it looked like stars in the sky, shining continuously, the old lady quickly used it Cover your eyes with your hands.

"Girl, don't you reveal your wealth?"

"I was blocked from going out today. It seems that they all like this kind of hair accessories. Since they all like it, then I will sell it and make a little money."

"You are too bold. This capital city is a place full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. If you are not careful, disasters will come."

"Then what can I do? I have been targeted by people. If I don't sell these, someone will definitely pay attention to me. But once they are sold, many people in the capital have this thing. Who will pay attention to it in the future? And me?"

"How many do you have here?"

"Ten small items, one large item, and ten sets of horse-face skirts,"

"You planned to come to the capital to sell these?"

"No, by the way, that's all, it will be gone after it's sold out."

"It's more than two hundred thousand taels, right?"

"In the wealthy families of the capital, hundreds of thousands of taels are nothing. The magistrates and county magistrates below pay more than this a year. It is the hard-earned money of the common people."

"Have you got this money and put it at home?"

"I didn't think about leaving it at home. There are still many poor families in the capital, and there are many victims of disasters outside the city. With this money, I plan to buy grain and take it outside the city to distribute grain and silver."

The old lady took a breath, and she looked at Qiao Mai and took a deep breath.

"You are a good boy, but the old man's thinking is too superficial. So you sold these for them?"

"Yes, let's walk along the road. There are so many victims. Although two hundred and twenty thousand taels is not too much, we can still do something modest. Besides, we have to help them on the way back. It will get colder as we go. They can't do without money."

"Son, there are very few women who worry about the people of the world like you."

"Just do my best. You don't have to praise me, or I'll be proud. Besides, don't you often help the people?"

"Then I will accept the invitation and ask them to come to the house tomorrow morning, and we will sell these things in the front hall?"

"I listen to you!"

I don't know how the wind blew. Many people came to Bichun Garden the next day, all of whom were dignitaries from the capital.

Some of them were actually sent by the empresses in the palace. My God, they almost crowded the living room.

The old lady asked all the maids and women in the living room to go out and wait, leaving only their master.

"To make a long story short, everyone is here to see hair accessories, and there are so many people, let's just look at them one by one."

Qiao Mai took out the first one, and she opened the exquisite box to reveal the shiny hair accessories inside, and then passed it in front of the eyes of all the ladies.

"This one is called Double Flying Butterfly. It can be pinned on the side of the head, on the hair, or behind the hair. It is suitable for any kind of wear, as long as the hair is gently clipped like this."

As she spoke, she picked it up, stroked on her hair, and put it on for everyone to see.

"Presumably everyone has heard of its price. The reason why it is expensive is because it is inlaid with a lot of diamonds. The diamonds are produced in a country on the other side of the ocean. They are similar to our gems here, but brighter than gems, so it is It's shiny, this butterfly is flying together, the starting price is 10,000 taels, who's the bid?"

"My lady, how many hair accessories do you want to sell today?"

"Ten small ones like this, and one big one. These are brought by my friend from abroad. They will be gone after they are sold out."

"Where is the foreign country you speak of?"

"It takes about one and a half months to arrive by boat from the sea in the south. It's called South Africa."

"It's so far away, no wonder we haven't seen it before."

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's make an offer now?"

"Ten thousand taels!"

A lady raised her hand and called out the price. Some people wanted to see what was behind them, fearing that they would regret it if the higher price was called out, so they didn't shout anymore.

Qiao Mai smiled and brought this butterfly double fly to the lady, who took out a silver ticket from her cuff and handed it to her.

Then he took it with a smile, looked at the number on it, nodded to the lady, and put it away.

Then he took out the second hair ornament, "This hair ornament is called Bingdi Huakai, which means the same as the one above, and the asking price is 10,000 taels."

Every time, she would pass it in front of these ladies and wives, so that they could see clearly, so as not to hesitate.

"Ten thousand taels!"

The lady who took the first hair ornament just now raised her hand again, and now the other ladies can't hold back, so they can't let her make it round.

"I said Mrs. Jiao, you can't do this if you have money. You took one of them, so you can't rob us again."

"Who told you not to ask the price?"

"Who said we stopped shouting, twelve thousand taels."

"Twenty thousand taels!"

Mrs. Jiao's neck was choked, and the price she shouted seemed to choke someone else's neck.

She got the second one again, Qiao Mai smiled and Mimi put the banknote into her pocket, and then took out the third one.

The old lady watched it with great interest. Today there are only customers and sellers, there is no high or low, whoever has the money will buy, that's great!

In this way, these small ornaments in the back were photographed one by one, and when she took out the last hair crown, the room lit up, it was so beautiful.

"This is the last accessory, and it's also the finale, but there are ten more dresses in a while, and those who are interested can take a look."

"Quick bid?"

"The price starts at 150,000 taels, let's start bidding."

"Two hundred thousand taels!"

"Two hundred and fifty thousand taels!"

"Three hundred thousand taels!"

Qiao Mai said in his heart, damn it, there are so many rich people, and he shouted out without blinking, it was still fifty thousand taels to fifty thousand taels.

What's the difference between this and the rich on earth? Ordinary people drink a bottle of mineral water for only two yuan, while rich people drink a bottle of mineral water for a thousand yuan. This is the gap. Not bad.

In the end, this hair crown was bought by a lady present at a price of 350,000 taels.

A lot of people who don’t have a solid family background feel pretty good after being addicted to their eyes. It’s really eye-opening. I’m still asking if I bought it.

"Little lady, when will your friend get another batch of hair accessories like this?"

"It's not easy to go there. You have to risk your life. You don't know that if you go out to sea once, if you encounter a sea vortex, the whole boat will be gone, so it's not certain when he will go."

"Didn't you say there are still skirts?"

Qiao Mai grinned, walked to the side and patted a beautiful box on the table, opened the top one, and took out a skirt from it.
