When the shopkeeper rushed over again, he happened to encounter such a tense scene.
He didn't know the girl who was alone, but he knew the one opposite him.
So he hurried over to greet her, with an apologetic smile on his face, "Miss Xie, how did you find time to come here today? Let us know what clothes you want, and we'll send someone to deliver them directly to your house."
Surrounded by the crowd, Xie Wanqing wore a faint smile on her face. "Her Royal Highness the Princess is going to hold a spring banquet in the suburbs in a few days. Today I came here specially to choose a suitable dress, but..."
She glanced at Yang Yang, and the shopkeeper also understood the situation.
"This girl did come first..." He was torn and didn't know what to do.
The Xie family is one of the most prominent families in the capital. A few days ago, I heard that the eldest daughter of the Xie family had been engaged to the eldest son of Princess Showa when they were children, and they were preparing to discuss the marriage recently. I am afraid that they will be promoted to a higher level in the future.
As for this girl, although the shopkeeper had never seen her in the capital, judging from her appearance, temperament and conversation, she did not seem to come from a humble family.
The shopkeeper is very good at dealing with people and doesn't want to offend anyone.
"Boss, you better think about it before you speak!" said a young girl beside Xie Wanqing, looking at Jing Yang with a sarcastic look. "She looks good, but I guess she's just a country girl who came to the city. She hasn't seen any good things. Whether she can afford it is another matter."
"Looking at the look of him, maybe he's out for something..." another girl said with a smile, and everyone else, including Xie Wanqing, covered their lips and laughed.
"What did you say?!" Although Jing Yang didn't understand at first, he understood after seeing their reactions and the shopkeeper's embarrassed expression.
She was so angry that she rushed forward and wanted to attack.
Fortunately, Xuezhu came back at this time. Seeing that her master had caused trouble again, she rushed forward to stop Jingyang.
"Girl...don't, don't, don't..."
Jing Yang was furious and glared at Xue Zhu, "Why are you stopping me? She was the first to say something mean! I'm going to teach her a lesson!"
"What? Are you going to hit someone again? Believe it or not, I'll make it impossible for you to survive in this capital!"
"Go out and ask around the Xie family. They're the most prestigious family in the capital. Who do you think you are?"
Xie Wanqing only said one sentence throughout the whole process, and the people around her did it for her.
Jingyang was going crazy, but Xuezhu was holding him tightly.
The shopkeeper watched the situation and finally stepped forward to propose a solution. "Girls, running a business isn't easy for me. There's only one dress like this today, and it's a recent arrival. The price is quite high."
He looked at Jingyang and said, "First come, first served. If this lady can pay for this dress, it will be yours."
The shopkeeper has been doing business for decades, so he naturally knows that one should not judge a person by his appearance and should not offend others at will.
It wouldn't be too embarrassing for him to propose this method.
This dress is very valuable. If this girl can really pay for it, it means that she is indeed not to be underestimated.
If he can't pay it off, then you can't blame him for giving it to Miss Xie.
Seeing that things were turning around, Xuezhu hurriedly asked the shopkeeper how much it cost.
The shopkeeper reported a number - three hundred taels.
Three hundred taels for a set of clothes is enough for an ordinary family in the capital to eat for a year.
"I want it!" Jing Yang agreed without thinking.
But Xuezhu pulled Jingyang with her head held high and whispered to her, "Miss, we didn't bring much money with us when we went out. We just booked an inn, and now we don't have that much left..."
Although her voice was low, it was heard by the people on the opposite side.
One of them chuckled, "I thought you were so great, but you can't even come up with three hundred taels. Why are you pretending to be so generous?"
"You..." Jing Yang stomped his feet in anger, regretting that he was now in Dacheng.
If she were at home, she would definitely teach these rude people a lesson!
The shopkeeper had made up his mind and was about to speak when a waiter hurried over and whispered something in his ear.
The shopkeeper's expression changed, and he bowed to Yang Yang and the others, "Girls, please take a look. I have something urgent to deal with in the shop, and I will be back soon."
After saying this, he hurried away following the servant.
…
After a while, the shopkeeper came back.
He was smiling, and Jingyang thought he should go and flatter Xie Wanqing.
She looked at the goose yellow dress with hatred and prepared to leave with Xuezhu.
When she has money, she will definitely come back and buy the entire store!
But unexpectedly, the shopkeeper walked up to her, bowed and said, "Young lady, this dress is yours."
"What?" Xie Wanqing's men shouted, "Boss, are you kidding me? She's a broke bastard!"
The shopkeeper looked at Jing Yang with a smile and said, "Miss, someone has just paid for all the clothes you requested."
Jingyang was stunned and looked at Xuezhu.
They just arrived in the capital and have no relatives or friends. Who would be so kind?
The moon-white figure he saw a few hours ago appeared in Jingyang's mind.
Could it be him?
Xie Wanqing lost her temper at this moment, and her expression became visibly gloomy. "Boss, are you sure you want to sell it to her?"
The shopkeeper calmed down and nodded, "Miss Xie, I'm so sorry. To make amends, I'll give you a discount on any small purchases you make in our store today."
Xie Wanqing snorted, but said nothing more.
Baoshang Pavilion makes a living under the imperial city, so naturally it has some backing to become so big.
Xie Wanqing thought about it for a moment, and instead of offending him further, he just smiled and said, "The shopkeeper owes me a favor."
After saying that, he glanced at Jingyang and left with a few people.
The shopkeeper sent the person out politely and then came back to continue entertaining Jingyang.
Jing Yang had already changed into her light yellow dress. When the shopkeeper saw her, he couldn't help but praise her, "You look absolutely stunning in this dress, young lady."
Xuezhu nodded repeatedly beside him, "Girl, this Tianshan snow chrysanthemum looks best on you!"
"The two girls actually know about Tianshan Snow Chrysanthemum, which is only found in the northwest." The shopkeeper was a little surprised.
Xuezhu realized that she had let the cat out of the bag and waved her hands, "I've seen it in a picture book before."
Rather than this matter, Jingyang was more curious about who helped her pay the bill, so he asked the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper simply said, "The young man who helped you with the check said that this is to repay your kindness in helping him."
After hearing this, Jingyang and Xuezhu became more certain about who it was.
After all, they had been in the capital for less than a day and had only helped one person.
Jingyang raised his eyebrows and smiled, very happy.
She didn't think too much and left with Xuezhu.
After seeing her off, the shopkeeper returned to the store and went to the back hall.
Yuan Musheng was still sitting there. The shopkeeper came forward and bowed to him, "Master, everything is done."
Yuan Musheng nodded slightly, "Thank you very much, sorry for the trouble."
The shopkeeper was terrified. "My Lord, you are too kind. This Baoshang Pavilion is the property of Her Royal Highness the Princess. How can it be a bother for you to come here to order such a small matter?"
After resolving the issue, Yuan Musheng stood up and prepared to leave.
Thinking of what he had just heard, he turned and instructed the shopkeeper, "If you have any more dresses with the Tianshan Snow Chrysanthemum pattern, send them to the Princess's residence."
"If you don't have any, just make a few sets. Use the best fabrics."
