In fact, Shen Jia himself has not yet decided on a price. He just wants to see what the other party is willing to do. It would be great if he can sell it at a high price.

Before she could say anything, Ilysis, holding the glass bottle, shouted anxiously:

"As long as Boss Shen is willing to sell me this beautiful bottle, I'm willing to pay two thousand taels!"

In fact, after he finished speaking, he felt a little short of breath. He really didn't bring much silver with him on this trip, and he still had other things he needed to buy, such as Shen's coal, which was a very good thing.

Therefore, he didn't have much money left, and two thousand taels was his ideal price. Any more would only give him a few hundred taels of room for maneuver, so bargaining was a natural process.

After saying that, he held the bottle in one hand and waited for Shen Jia's answer.

Although Chen Yuan knew that the glass bottle made by Shen Jia was very expensive when he saw it, he was still stunned when he heard the price of two thousand taels.

Shen Jia felt similarly. The price of his ordinary glass bottle was several times higher than that of porcelain fired in the official kiln. He thought it was not bad.

Moreover, two thousand taels could be considered as three months' profit for a delicacy pavilion, so this trip was not in vain.

After Ilysis announced the price, she waited a long time for Shen Jia and Chen Yuan's response, and her heart sank deeper and deeper.

Just as his inner defenses were gradually crumbling and he was about to raise the price a little more, Shen Jia spoke.

"This bottle is a glass bottle developed exclusively by our Shen family. It is famous for its transparent and dazzling appearance. Since you are our first customer, we can sell it to you at this price.

However, I hope I can still get priority to inspect your caravan's goods. There are some items I'd like to take a closer look at. Furthermore, our caravan has brought other styles of glassware. If you're interested, you can come with us to our accommodations to take a look. You can also exchange them if you wish."

When Ilysis heard the first sentence, he relaxed completely. As for checking the goods of his caravan in advance, it was not a difficult task before the event.

But when he heard Shen Jia say that he had other styles of glassware, he was completely stunned.

The next moment he immediately began to think about who he could borrow money from. He wanted to buy all the glass himself.

After thinking it over, he decided to go with Shen Jia to see the situation first. If he could buy them all by gritting his teeth, that would be great. Otherwise, he should think of other ways.

Then he came to where Shen Jia and others were staying. He saw the glassware packed in boxes and didn't even want to move his feet. How nice it would be if all these beautiful things were his.

Looking at Ilysis who had been watching the other party's box room for two hours, Shen Jia left reluctantly, leaving Chen Yuan to deal with the next matter.

As the sky gradually darkened, Chen Yuan couldn't help but say, "Boss Ilysis, if you like it, you can pay the deposit first, and we can keep the item for you for a few days."

Ilysis took another look at her precious glass and said to Chen Yuan:

"You must leave these colored glass pieces for me. Tomorrow, I will definitely bring people to buy all these things."

In fact, when Ilysis looked at the ten complete glass bottles and other pieces of glass jewelry, she felt that it would be difficult to buy them all with her own money.

So he naturally thought of someone. He only brought a medium-sized caravan of the Great Yuezhi to participate in the event. If it was the richest caravan of the Great Yuezhi this time, he was sure that all these things could be taken into their country's pockets.

As he said this, he first paid for the glass bottle in his hand, and then paid the deposit for all other glass products. Although his pockets were empty, he began to imagine his beautiful future days.

The next day, Shen Jia and others found out who he had brought.

Looking at the imposing third prince of the Great Yuezhi, Imani, Imani had seen the glass bottle of the Shen family caravan yesterday. When he first saw it, he was as amazed as Ilysis.

He immediately thought that his father would definitely like this thing, so he thought he could buy all of these things today and not give any chance to the caravans under other brothers who were competing with him for the throne.

As for Ilysis, the person who provided him with information, he would naturally give him some benefits.

Shen Jia naturally would not refuse someone who took the initiative to come to him and give him gold, silver and treasures, so all the remaining glassware was taken away by the third prince of Dayuezhi alone.

Shen Jia received two thousand taels of gold and the opportunity to select goods in advance from their caravan.

For a moment, all three parties felt that they had obtained what they wanted and were satisfied. Shen Jia also left the address of his caravan in Hezhou with the two of them. If they wanted to buy in the future, they could find this place directly or contact them through the coal shop.

There are only two days left until the event begins, and Shen Jia has to take advantage of this time to go to the two people's caravan to pick up some goods.

Some things that have been developed in modern times still need someone to discover them, and Shen Jia is now playing this role.

That day, she brought Chen Yuan and four guards to the inn where Ilysis was staying. When she saw him waiting at the door, she smiled and said, "We're late, we're late. Please bear with me."

"You are my great benefactor now. What's the big deal? Please come in! I have asked my men to open all the boxes I brought this time. Please feel free to choose anything you like."

The two of them were chatting happily in front of the inn, and were seen by Yan Zhou, who was inspecting several garrisons in the west with Yan Xu.

So he suddenly said, "Master, I think I saw Miss Shen. She's at the inn ahead. She should be the head of a caravan from a small country in the Western Regions. The day after tomorrow is the trade fair. No wonder I saw Miss Shen here. The Shen family is now flourishing under her management."

Hearing the words around him, Yan Xu's eyes seemed to have detectors, and he immediately found Shen Jia's location. Unfortunately, he only saw Shen Jia's back.

Even so, he could still recognize who the other person was. His expression softened naturally, and he returned to normal the next second.

He said to Yan Zhou, "During the grand event, the defense of the Handong Left Guard is most likely to be in trouble. We will stay here to help the brothers in the guard post."

According to their original plan, the one hundred people brought by Yan Xu should have set off for Hami Guard early tomorrow morning, but now Yan Xu made a sudden decision that they had to make some further arrangements.

Yan Zhou was also a little puzzled by his master's sudden change of mind, but his subconscious reaction to obey orders prevented him from saying anything against it.

Instead, he planned to tell the news to the soldiers of Handong Zuowei who had come together, so that they could also see the scene of the winter solstice celebration. It seemed that everyone had missed it in previous years.

Shen Jia, who had entered the house, had already declined Ilysis's suggestion to accompany him to check, and was checking the courtyard full of boxes by himself.

She really hoped that she could find some better crops. After checking again and again, she found that all she saw were existing spices. She had spent a huge amount of money to buy these at the pharmacy and had already started planting them, so she didn't need to buy them anymore.

After looking through the boxes in the two rooms, she still didn't find what she wanted. Just when she was feeling discouraged, she suddenly saw golden corn at the bottom of a box.

This is a good thing. In some uneven mountainous areas, it is the only food crop that people can grow.

She suppressed her excitement and said to the caravan assistant who was helping her select the goods, "I want this golden thing. I wonder how many you have left? I want to buy them all."

The other party did not respond immediately, but said, "I'll ask our boss first," and then hurried out the door.

Taking advantage of this time, Shen Jia checked the boxes in other places again, and found that there was nothing he wanted.

The caravan's deputy returned shortly and told Shen Jia what Ilysis meant. "The boss is willing to give you these golden rods directly, and he also said that you must not refuse. Our caravan already got the best deal in the last transaction."

Then they gave all the corn they brought to Shen Jia without giving him any chance to refuse. The main reason was that the corn brought by the original caravan was mainly unpalatable, but the color was pleasing, and who knows, someone might like it. When they got it from the Persian caravan, they just treated it as a gift with other goods. How could they charge money for a gift?

Afterwards, Shen Jia and his party went to the caravan of the third prince of Dayuezhi to check and got some seeds of unknown crops that she longed for. When they planted them next year, they would know what they were.

She didn't find anything else she wanted, so she decided to attend the event the day after tomorrow to see if other caravans had what she wanted.

The day came quickly, because all the things their caravan brought had been sold out before the event even took place.

She sold the temporary shop they had prepared to others, and she also gave all the members of her caravan a holiday so that everyone could experience the excitement of the event firsthand.

Shen Jia took Chen Yuan, Xu Zhao and Lin Yuehu to visit the shops of other caravans. Each caravan displayed their best goods, which could be seen at a glance while walking on the street.

She looked at the dazzling array of goods and felt dazzled, especially since most people in the Western Regions liked colorful things.

This effect is more obvious when they are all placed on both sides of the road.

Seeing how they wanted to squeeze themselves in between the three of them, Shen Jia said, "You guys can also take a look at the things. Don't be so startled. The guards of other caravans are also standing on both sides of the road."

"Jia Niang, we'd better be careful. There have been many problems in the past."

"Yes, boss, we are also watching the goods. Don't worry, we can do two things at the same time."
