She's selling this simply for the money.
As long as the money is right, it doesn't matter who you sell to.
"I've taken a look at these items. The quality is good, and the designs are unique and novel, especially those pieces of jade, which are quite large."
How about I give you 100,000 gold coins for these items?
Anle didn't say anything, just gave a cold laugh and stood up.
Yu Rong readily took the bag of gems from the steward, opened it to check the contents, made sure nothing was missing, wrapped it up, and prepared to leave with An Le.
The steward was taken aback by Yu Rong's forceful snatching action. Then, looking at his empty palm, he felt a sense of emptiness. The food hadn't even warmed up in his hands yet.
Even if it's not yours, it's still nice to have a go at it.
Anle spoke to Yu Rong in a normal voice.
"let's go."
"Wait, the price is negotiable." Seeing that the girl got up and left without saying a word, Feng Yan knew that she was not someone who could be easily fooled.
They quickly called the person to stop.
We can't let this hot commodity slip through our fingers.
The price he quoted just now was just a test.
These things are certainly worth more than 100,000 gold coins.
In recent years, the market for these gemstones has been rising, reaching an unprecedented peak value.
That one piece of jade cabochon alone is worth this price. He just wanted to test the waters and see if these two people really had any knowledge of the gemstone market.
Anle turned around, her voice clearly showing displeasure.
"If you, young master, are going to treat me like a fool and make fun of me, then you should find someone else. I don't have the mood or the time to joke around with you here."
"I apologize, esteemed guest, please don't take offense. I will now give you a proper calculation of the value of these gemstone items. That jadeite cabochon will be priced at 100,000 gold."
Those jade earrings, two hundred thousand gold pieces; that jade necklace, three hundred thousand gold pieces—
Feng Yan had already mentioned the price, and An Le thought it was acceptable and could sell it to him. However, when he mentioned the price of 300,000 gold for the jade necklace, An Le interrupted him.
"No, that jade necklace is worth more than 300,000 gold. The young master should have seen how big the jade on the necklace is."
"A piece of jade of such high quality, with such fine and smooth texture, and such a large size—you probably can't find another one like it in Tianqi, can you?"
The last sentence had a probing tone; in truth, she didn't know if there were any jade stones in Tianqi of even better quality than the one she held.
This is just her personal conjecture and deduction, and based on what she knows, she thinks it's probably not wrong.
All she knew here was that Yu Rong had mentioned a piece of jade the size of a thumb that the former empress possessed, which had sold for 100,000 gold coins.
She had already confirmed with Yu Rong that the necklace in her hand was smaller.
As for its quality, although she didn't know, she was certain it should be similar to the one she had in her hand.
Based on her understanding, she could estimate just how scarce and precious this thing was in this country.
Even the size of a thumb sells for 100,000 gold coins, which shows how rare and valuable this thing is here.
Such a rare item was only the size of a thumb in the hands of the former empress, so there shouldn't be anything bigger than what she had in this country.
If it weren't valuable or interesting, the late emperor certainly wouldn't have bothered to get it for the late empress as a birthday gift.
Although the quality of the jadeite belonging to the former empress was unclear, just now, this young master in front of me actually set the price of her two jadeite rings and earrings at 100,000 and 200,000 gold respectively.
The fact that it was priced the same as the one in the former empress's possession was enough to determine that its quality was no worse than that of the former empress's.
Otherwise, the young master wouldn't have offered her such a high price. Her piece is only the size of a fingernail, not as big as a thumb.
Therefore, it can be concluded that the jadeite imported into this country is of very low quality; it is nothing more than some low-grade stuff.
Among these low-grade jade trinkets, the larger jade necklace in her hand is probably the only one that can rival it.
She didn't intend to grow the best jade when she first started planting it; she just randomly planted these few pieces of glutinous jade, which are still oily green in color.
Whether you look at the type or the color, the jadeite she planted is not of good quality.
If classified by type, there are bean type, glutinous rice type, ice type, glass type, etc. Compared to ice type and glass type, her glutinous rice type is nothing special.
If classified by color, there are apple green, bright green, imperial green, etc. Compared to these colors, the oily green in her hand doesn't seem like much at all.
Jadeite comes in a wide variety of colors, and even slight differences can result in significant price variations. The saying "a difference in color can mean a tenfold difference in price" perfectly illustrates this point.
If we categorize by water content, hers is only two-tenths water, which is already quite good, but compared to three-tenths water, it's not considered sufficient.
As they were talking, Feng Yan was stopped. His expression paused for a moment, and after glancing at An Le, he changed his mind, "Then, let's raise it again, to 350,000 gold, how about that?"
Anle hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"Of these four crystal items, this crystal hairpin is worth 350,000 gold, and this crystal hair crown is quite substantial, worth 2 million gold."
As for these two bracelets, each is worth 300,000 gold, for a total of 3.6 million gold.
What do you think?
“Okay, let’s exchange money for goods right now.” Anle agreed readily and decisively, showing no intention of dragging things out and preparing to take the money and leave as soon as possible.
Upon hearing that it was so much money, she felt like she had struck it rich.
I was incredibly excited.
Feng Yan smiled, and a brocade pouch appeared in his hand at some point. He tossed it to An Le.
This was the price he had calculated from the beginning, so he only prepared this many gold coins.
Anle took it in a daze, opened the brocade belt and glanced inside. There were some small gold coins inside, which looked about the same size as the coins from her previous life.
That one glance inside left Anle completely dumbfounded.
What does that mean?
Isn't it a total of 3.6 million gold?
What's the point of giving them this bag of small gold coins? Shouldn't 3.6 million gold be those huge, naked gold ingots that could fill a room?
Shouldn't it have been big gold ingots like she imagined? How did it turn into such a small bag of stuff?
Her mind simply couldn't keep up with this sudden change.
