The jade shop owner found it quite strange to see that Qiu Yan and her companions all had faces from the Central Plains.

She had seen the man in his thirties that morning, but the two of them had been talking at cross purposes.

Most of the people from the Central Plains were arrested and imprisoned, but these few people were quite calm and dared to go out and stroll around in a big way.

Aren't they afraid of being targeted by those soldiers?

Despite my thoughts, the jade shop owner was still very hospitable to his customers.

She stared at Mayi for a moment. Because Mayi's face was covered by a white veil, the jade shop owner felt that her eyes looked familiar, but he couldn't quite put his finger on where he had seen them before.

She spoke to Mayi in her own language.

"Take a look around, whatever you want. All the jade in our shop is top-quality and reasonably priced. If you like it, you can buy it."

Mayi smiled slightly, then turned her gaze to Qiu Yan and the others, translating for them.

Qiu Yan took a careful look at the shop owner, who was an elegant middle-aged woman.

Although the woman is not young, she still retains her charm and maintains a great figure.

Commander Yuan immediately spotted a bluish-white jade hairpin. The hairpin was warm and smooth, of excellent quality, and of superior quality.

He asked Mayi to help him find out the price.

After exchanging words with the jade shop owner, Mayi turned to look at Captain Yuan.

"Two taels of silver."

"Two taels?" Captain Yuan felt his pocket, took out two taels of silver, and immediately bought the jade hairpin.

Two taels of silver is much cheaper than in Dongjin. If he could, he would like to buy more.

However, in order to save food rations, he restrained himself from acting impulsively.

Seeing this, Qin Susu couldn't help but tease:

"Uncle Yuan is so thoughtful. I wish my father were half as considerate as you."

Her father was a rough and uncultured man; the things he usually gave her were either bows and arrows or daggers.

However, she likes it.

Commander Yuan lowered his head, feeling somewhat embarrassed in front of Qiu Yan and Qin Susu.

As Qiu Yan listened to the selling price, her eyes were full of smiles and business acumen.

However, for now, we can only dream about it.

She glanced curiously at the bluish-white jade hairpin in Captain Yuan's hand.

The carving is exquisite, the surface is smooth and lustrous, and most importantly, the price is cheap.

She carefully examined the shelves, and a round piece of jade caught her eye.

Upon closer inspection, it is a round jade pendant.

On the jade pendant is carved a lifelike white jade Pixiu.

The Pixiu is powerful, and Qiu Yan liked it very much at first glance.

Pixiu can ward off evil and protect peace.

This jade pendant suits him very well.

Qiu Yan made a decision in her mind, her gaze sweeping over the various jade stones.

"Xiaoyan, these jade stones are all very beautiful. Why don't we buy a few to take home?" Qin Susu's eyes immediately fell on a wolf tooth pendant.

She touched it and really liked it.

As Mayi listened to Qin Susu's words, she turned to look at Qiu Yan.

"Xiaoyan, buy it if you like it. If you don't have the money, I can give it to you for free."

"Give it to me?" Qiu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up.

“Yes, I’ll give it to you.” Mayi looked at Qiu Yan sincerely. “As long as you keep your promise to me, I’ll give you whatever amount of money you want.”

"Really?" Qin Susu's eyebrows curved into a smile and her eyes gleamed with a sharp light when she heard the word "money".

Ling Ba shook his head secretly. "Xiao Yan, don't make trouble for yourself for the sake of money."

Captain Yuan stared at Qiu Yan in astonishment. Had Miss Qiu made friends with a nobleman?

He could tell at a glance that Mayi was extraordinary, judging from her demeanor and the way she spoke.

He's really lucky; none of the people he knows are as generous as Mayi.
