Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress

Chapter 921 Embarrassment (1)

The sky in June is like a child's face. It changes at a moment's notice. It was still clear and bright last night. When I got up early, it started to rain lightly. After Caiwei got up, she tidied up and took Chaoyun with her. He left Prince Qin's Mansion in a carriage and went straight to Zhenbao Pavilion.

When they got there, they saw that Huo Yuan had already arrived and was walking outside the counter on the first floor of Zhenbao Pavilion, looking at the things placed inside carefully.

The first floor of Zhenbao Pavilion mainly targets middle-class women. The counter at the back sells gold and silver jewelry. There are also many inlaid with gems, but they are not very expensive gems. The gems are not big. The gold jewelry is not big either; the counter on the east side sells jade, agate, rhino horn, hats and other jewelry; the counter on the west side specializes in selling cheap jewelry, such as headbands, velvet flowers, wood, and bamboo. The engraved hairpins, bracelets, etc. seem to be specifically targeted at customers below the middle class.

When Caiwei arrived, Huo Yuan had basically looked through the goods on the first floor, and he estimated the prices to a close. Seeing Caiwei, Huo Yuan smiled brightly: "Good morning!"

Caiwei smiled sheepishly: "Brother Huo was earlier. I was supposed to arrive first."

Butler Dong was already waiting here. When he saw Caiwei, he greeted her enthusiastically and said, "Miss, let's go upstairs and have a look?"

Caiwei also had this intention. The items sold on the first floor were all ordinary things. If a young lady from a wealthy family came, she would definitely look down on her. There must be many fine products on the second floor, otherwise this treasure pavilion would not be the same. It doesn’t deserve the name of the second largest silver building in the capital!

When we got to the second floor, Caiwei was not disappointed. The second floor was worthy of being a boutique area. Both in terms of decoration and service, it was more than one level higher than the first floor. The counters and seat furniture on the first floor are all made of elm wood, while the furniture and counters on the second floor are made of rosewood, and the workmanship is obviously much more exquisite. As for the jewelry placed on the counter, it is even more similar to the one on the second floor. The jewelry on the first floor is completely different.

Pieces of ingenious jewelry and dazzling jewelry dazzled Caiwei. Even Huo Yuan, who was always picky, couldn't help but nod in approval.

Butler Dong said proudly: "The jewelry worn by my wife and young ladies are all made by our own craftsmen. Many wives and ladies from official families also specialize in custom-made jewelry in our Zhenbao Pavilion. Although Zhenbao Zhai does not have a Craftsmanship Building, The reputation is great, and if we talk about the craftsmanship of the master, it is definitely not inferior to the craftsmanship of the master of Jiangxin Building, but our goods are not as high-end as those of Jiangxin Building."

"However, we also have a few good items that are very popular in the store."

As he spoke, he ducked into the counter and took out a double-layered carved and painted rosewood jewelry box from a small secret cabinet under the counter. He placed it on the counter and opened it layer by layer. They contained two sets of jewelry from Zhenbao Pavilion. Because they were too expensive, they were never placed on the counter and they were not easily shown to anyone!

"Look, miss, this jade headband is worthy of being worn by the empress in the palace."

Butler Dong lit a set of jadeite with excellent water quality on the first floor and introduced it.

Looking along his fingers, I saw a set of excellent jadeite, all emerald green, without any impurities, but the style was a bit old-fashioned, and it seemed that it was prepared for middle-aged and elderly ladies.

"There is also this set of violet jade heads and faces. Yesterday, the newly married wife of Wuchang Hou came to see it. She fell in love with it at first sight. Unfortunately, it was too expensive and she was reluctant to buy it."

It turned out to be Du Wanqing's jewelry. Caiwei couldn't help but look at it a few more times. It was a set of eighteen pieces of jade jewelry, all made of deep and light purple jade, including royal purple, blue purple, red purple, Pink purple, Roland purple, no matter which color, the jade quality is of the highest quality, and the carving is even more exquisite.
