Legendary star: Signed to the Palace at the beginning

Chapter 9 Kusa, Prince of Persia, and

"Persian goods? Somebody has to look."

Xiao Chuan wandered into Kusahe's shop, and there were small jewelry boxes made of camel bones, candle carvings, Persian blue enamel vessels, gold embroidery made of delicate gold and silver threads, Persian carpets and tapestries from PAZIRIK.

Xiao Chuan remembered seeing a dilapidated Persian carpet from PAZIRIK on the Internet that was sold for millions of dollars. Now these carpets and tapestries are randomly piled up on the ground like tatters.

The enamel vessels used as court tributes in later generations were placed in the corner and covered with dust.

Xiao Chuan picked up a bottle and asked, "Kusahe, how do you sell this bottle?"

Kusa said softly, "My lord, this is Persian blue enamel, it's not worth much, if my lord likes it, I'll give it to you."

Xiao Chuan smiled and said, "Kusahe, I don't want one, I want to buy them all."

Ku Sahe smiled bitterly and said: "Haha, Xiaolangjun, are you kidding me?"

Xiao Chuan said seriously: "I'm not kidding, I'm serious."

Kusahe said: "If others buy this pile of Persian blue enamel, they can't sell it for less than five thousand guan. If the young man buys it, it will cost him [-] guan."

Xiao Chuan's heart was beating violently, but his face remained calm. He pointed to the pile of PAZIRIK Persian carpets and said, "How do you sell those carpets?"

Kusa said, "This pile of carpets is also two thousand."

Xiao Chuan smiled and asked, "Kusahe, are you buying the goods?"

Kusa reconciled: "Of course I want to buy goods and sell them back to Persia."

Xiao Chuan opened his travel bag and took out two cardboard boxes.

Open the carton, inside are four goblet glasses, four glass bowls, and four glass plates.

Xiao Chuan said: "Kusahe, do you buy these goods?"

"Crystal cups! Crystal bowls! Crystal plates!"

Kusa and his eyes lit up, carefully picked up a goblet, held it up to the sun to watch carefully.

"Oh my god! How did you grind this crystal? It's a miracle."

Xiao Chuan said: "Kusahe, how do you like something like this? Are you satisfied?"

Kusahe gently put the goblet back, and said repeatedly: "Satisfied, very satisfied, Mr. Xiao Lang, these 12 pieces of crystals are all high-quality goods, worth at least 1 yuan, but unfortunately I haven't sold a few of them yet. , I can't afford it."

Xiao Chuan said: "Kusahe, I can exchange goods worth [-] guan with you, you just need to give me [-] guan."

Kusahe said in surprise: "Really? The goods in my room are worth more than 1 yuan, and they are all yours now. I will give you another [-] yuan, but they are all gold coins."

Xiao Chuan said: "It doesn't matter, as long as it's money."

After saying that, Kusahe shouted upstairs: "Pantea, come down for a moment."

As soon as the words were finished, a girl walked down the stairs slowly. The girl covered her head to her feet with a big cloth, revealing only a pair of bright eyes that seemed to be able to speak.

Kusahe introduced: "Xiao Langjun, this is my sister Panteya. By the way, I don't know the name of my benefactor yet?"

Dugu Chuan clasped his fists and said, "A certain Dugu Chuan, hello Pan Taiya."

Pan Taiya nodded to Xiao Chuan with a smile, and said, "Salam (hello)"

Kusa said: "Pantea, Mr. Dugu has already bought our goods, please receive him, and I will go get the gold coins."

Kusahe went upstairs to withdraw money. Xiao Chuan was very curious when he saw a Persian girl for the first time. After thinking about it, he took out a makeup mirror and said, "China is a country of etiquette. When we meet for the first time, I will give you a mirror." small gift."

Pan Yatai opened it curiously and exclaimed in blunt Chinese: "Oh, crystal mirror, it's too clear. This gift is too precious, I can't have it."

Xiao Chuan said: "It's not precious, I have plenty of mirrors like this in my hometown, and they're very cheap."

As a beauty, these things are what I like the most. Pan Yatai thought for a while, took out a small box from his arms, and said: "Thank you, I like this crystal mirror very much, I accept it, and I will also give you a gift .”

Xiao Chuan didn't care about the reciprocity, and casually stuffed the box into his sleeve pocket.

Kusahe carried down a box, which contained 200 taels of Persian gold coins.

Dugu Chuan took the gold coin box and said, "Kusahe, so and so will pick up the goods tomorrow."

Kusa said: "No need, little man, the goods in this room are yours, anyway, we can't rent this shop anymore, we live in Fanfang where foreign businessmen live, you can go there if you have something to do." Find us."

Xiao Chuan said: "Okay, then I will see you by fate."

Leaving the shop, Pan Taiya was puzzled and said, "Brother, is it too much for us to exchange a whole room of goods for so many crystal cups?"

Kusa and Deyi said: "Sister, now our Persia is being invaded by Dashi, and the war situation is in danger. My father asked us brothers and sisters to follow the caravan to the east to avoid trouble, and look for opportunities to meet the Emperor of Zhou and ask for help, but our gifts are huge. There is also food, and the food is more than what we are given. The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty does not receive us at all, but only sends a small official to deal with us. But there must be no crystal cup of food. We find an opportunity to present it to the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty. He will be very happy. Protect us, maybe you can send troops to support us."

Xiao Chuan closed the store door, opened the panel, saw a help button behind the backpack column, and immediately clicked to expand the backpack space: "Every expansion of 1 square meter requires 1 penny."

"It's all a routine. It's said to be free, but it turns out that upgrading the backpack space is so expensive, which is the same as a free game. Seeing that there are so many good things that you can't take away, no matter how expensive it is, you have to spend it."

"Expansion of 200 square meters."

The gold coins immediately decreased by 200 guan, and 200 squares were opened in the backpack column.

"200 guan, four times the property of a certain family."

Xiao Chuan put gold coin boxes, travel bags, and a room full of Persian goods into the space, closed the store door, and bought a few bronze pots and pans, and a few items from the Western Regions, Japan, Goguryeo, and other countries in a nearby store. Then I happily went to find my younger siblings.

Gou'er was taking Dugu Wudu and Dugu Yan standing in front of a shop to watch the excitement, and the shop was crowded with people.

Xiao Chuan said, "What are you looking at?"

Duguyan said: "Brother, there are lanterns over there, I want to go and see the excitement."

"it is good."

Xiao Chuan picked up his younger sister, the dog pulled Dugu Wudu, and the four squeezed into the crowd.

It turned out that a calligraphy and painting shop was holding lantern riddles. Dozens of small lanterns were hung on several beams, and a bamboo slip was hung under each lantern with words written on it.

Xiao Chuan saw two sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys standing beside him, one in blue and the other in green.

The boy in blue was very handsome, but the boy in green had a pale gold face, two playful mustaches on his lips, and a red scarf around his neck.

So Xiao Chuan reached out and patted the young man in green on the shoulder and asked: "Little Master, how do you guess?"

The young man in green blushed, and gently broke away from Xiao Chuan's hand, gave him a blank look, and said, "Guess with your head!"

Knowing that he had misunderstood, Xiao Chuan hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao Lang, did someone ask if this lantern riddle was guessed for nothing?"

The young man in green said: "A lantern riddle costs ten Wen. If you guess correctly, write the answer on the bamboo slips. The merchant will refund the money and take the lantern. If you fail to guess correctly, you can use Ten Wen to buy calligraphy and paintings in the store."

Xiao Chuan said in his heart: "The ancients were amazing, they were able to come up with such clever sales promotion methods, it seems that people in the world should not be underestimated."

Dugu Yan was hugged, and she was close to the lantern. She immediately fell in love with the colorful little lanterns, and shouted: "Big brother, big brother, Yan'er likes this lantern."

Xiao Chuan said: "Okay, brother, see if you can guess it."

The blue-clothed boy stabbed the green-clothed boy, and said: "Jun, Mr. Junlang, haven't you already guessed the answer to this lantern riddle, tell it quickly, and don't let that scoundrel get ahead of you."

The young man in green said: "Ruyi, it's okay, let him guess first."

Xiao Chuan looked at the bamboo slips in front of him, and there was a line written on it: "Water reflects Hengshan and falls into red (type one character)".

　Kusa, the prince, and his sister, Princess Panteya, are all famous figures in Persian history. Panteya was known as the number one beauty in West Asia at that time. Book friends can guess their future.The author loves pairs, can you guess it?The answer will be revealed tomorrow.
