Chapter 311 Guo Jia Is Very Depressed
Facts have proved that with the assistance of Ye Qingxuan, Luo Ji put on a full set of jade tea sets and tableware for himself, and put on a white jade wrench with suet, hanging his own black jade carp, and put on a silk robe in Mingjing City. After a few days of inspection, there is no need to say more, the propaganda effect has already been achieved, who made the things used by His Majesty the Emperor, will be tacitly marked by the people as the 'best' label? By the way, I haven't forgotten to promote silk.
On the day the jade shop opened, there was a long queue outside the shop, but for ordinary people, the price of jade was undoubtedly a sky-high price, and it was basically not something they could afford. Cooled down quickly.
But this does not mean that the popularity of jade shops has dropped. To be honest, the topic of jade is now talked about in the streets and alleys, and it has caused a series of chain reactions...
Guo Jia has been very melancholy recently, very melancholy. I saw that at this moment, he was carefully holding the white mutton fat cup in his hand, and then rubbing it again and again. I couldn't put it down until a voice sounded...
"That Mr. Guo, you've been standing in our store for almost a morning, haven't you..." During the conversation, the clerk of the jade shop smiled and stretched out his hand towards the white mutton fat cup in Guo Jia's hand.
That tea set made of suet and white jade is one of the most valuable pieces of jade in their jade shop. In His Majesty's words, it is called the treasure of the shop. According to the rules, it is not allowed to touch it at all. Jia's identity, he had already called in the two security guards arranged by His Majesty at the entrance of the jade shop.
Looking at the clerk's outstretched hand, Guo Jia instinctively took a half step back, and then looked at the clerk's slightly stiff smile, and he reacted with embarrassment.
"Uh, cough..." Finally, after coughing twice, he reluctantly handed over the white mutton fat cup in his hand, and under the smile of the clerk, he turned his head and left the jade shop three steps at a time...
Alas, so melancholy, Guo Jia, who walked out of the jade shop, couldn't help but look up at the sky. After buying a good quality tea and a set of exquisite pottery tea sets for two months, his wallet shrunk a lot, although he was still quite wealthy, But he couldn't afford the tea set made of white mutton fat at all. After struggling for a long time, he finally bravely went to see Luo Ji.
Luo Ji, who hadn't seen Guo Jia for a while, seemed quite enthusiastic after seeing him, "Why do you suddenly have time to come to Mingjing City? How is the development of Xiyuan City?"
"Thanks to Your Majesty's concern, everything is fine in Xiyuan City."
"That's good." Luo Ji replied, "Come on, drink tea, the first-grade high mountain tea that was just delivered this month."
As one of the few top 'tea lovers' in Luo Ji civilization, when he heard the words 'Yipin Alpine Tea', Guo Jia's expression was obviously lifted, and he subconsciously raised his hand to pick it up.
However, in the next second, Guo Jia's eyes were decisively widened a bit, and he stared at the cup that Luo Ji handed over, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this is..."
"Oh, this?" Luo Ji's mouth curled slightly, and then said in a casual tone, "I just got the suet white jade tea set some time ago, and I use this tea set to drink tea, it seems to have strong muscles and strong bones... "
"Rejuvenate the muscles, strengthen the bones, reassure the soul, nourish the heart and lungs..." Luo Ji's words just started, and Guo Jia has already completed the whole set of words in his heart. It's already gone backwards.
However, Luo Ji continued to speak without hesitation. In the end, he did not forget to summarize, "There are currently two sets in the entire Myriad Realms Civilization, one is for me, and the other is for the jade shop."
"Wait! Only two sets?!" Guo Jia was decisively shocked, he didn't know about it before!
Looking at Guo Jia, whose voice had obviously raised several decibels after mentioning this, Luo Ji laughed inwardly, and then continued to answer casually, "Yeah, just two sets, I don't know who has such luck. Well, to get another tea set before anyone else."
"There are only two sets, only two sets? Thinking about it, it is a miracle to have two sets of such a top-level tea set. In other words, once someone else buys it, then..." Thinking of this, Guo Jia decisively turned his head. He lifted it up, and then said in a dry and stiff tone, "Your Majesty, may I ask if there is anything I need to tell Wei Chen recently?"
"A matter?" Luo Ji tilted his head, pretending to be confused, "What's the matter?"
"Bi, such as crusade against barbarians or something..."
"Pfft hahaha!!" Looking at Guo Jia's twisted face, Luo Ji was already laughing wildly in his heart, and quickly used a tea drink to hide his face that was about to become unbearable. behind the sleeves.
After hiding behind his sleeves and laughing wildly for a while, Luo Ji, who finally regained his composure, put the white mutton fat cup in his hand gently on the table, and then seriously chatted with Guo Jia about the crusade against the barbarians. Barbarians? Shouldn’t be needed for the time being, our Ten Thousand Realms Civilization just annexed the Great Zhou Kingdom some time ago, and now is the time to digest the population, is it really a good strategy to crusade the barbarians and increase the population at this time?”
"Say, that's what I said..." Guo Jia's face turned blood red, and then he responded with an embarrassed expression. He didn't expect that out of selfishness, he actually made such a stupid proposal.
"What's wrong? Guo Jia, are you not feeling well? Speaking of which, that thoughtless proposal just now doesn't really seem like your style. Is it too tiring to manage Xiyuan City recently?" Full of sincerity.
Luo Ji's concern couldn't help making Guo Jia feel even more ashamed. In the end, he suddenly stood up and fell to his knees on the ground, "Your Majesty, this minister is guilty! Please forgive me!"
"This..." This time, Luo Ji was really dumbfounded, mainly because he didn't expect Guo Jia's reaction to be so excited, and then without waiting for Luo Ji's reaction, Guo Jia gave himself a self-destruction. He completely exposed his own selfishness, and Luo Ji was dumbfounded when he heard it. Finally, he simply said, "So that's what happened, Guo Jia, if you really like that tea set so much, I'll turn around and tell you something. You can pay as much as you can, and the rest can be paid in installments."
"Really, really? Your Majesty?" Guo Jia was moved.
"It's just a small matter." Luo Ji waved his hand.
"Guo Jia thanked Your Majesty!" Guo Jia decisively gave Luo Ji a big gift, and the moment he buried his head, the corner of his mouth evoked a shallow arc, "Finally, I succeeded in getting Your Majesty to allow me to pay in installments. , alas, I'm so tired of self-destruction, I should say that my expression just now was in place, right? Hahahahaha..."
And Luo Ji, who helped Guo Jia up from the ground, also had a slightly warped corner of his mouth, "Anyway, that set of mutton fat white jade tea set was planned to be sold to you from the beginning, and the newly opened jade shop also needs someone to lead it. Moreover, at that price, the installment payment is enough for you to be poor for a whole year, and in the next year, you don’t need to worry about what to reward you, hahahahaha…”
