Compared to that kind of inexplicable friendship, this kind of monetary transaction is more reassuring.
The world is bustling with people, all seeking profit.
The world is in turmoil, all for the pursuit of profit.
It is more reassuring to work with people who clearly mark their prices. As long as you pay enough, you don't have to worry about them betraying you, and they may even work for you with their lives.
After leaving their special contact information, the Eight Vajras left. Chu Li had also finished his work. Just as he walked to the door, he ran into Chu Dichi.
"Uncle?"
"Why are you here?"
Chu Dichi took two steps forward and said, "I just came here after finishing my official business with Xiao Yexing. What is the matter with you coming to the prefecture?"
Chu Li said in a soft voice:
"It's nothing important. I'm saying goodbye to Lord Li and asking him to be a good official and a good person in the future."
The man nodded and rubbed her head:
"Xiaojiu is still kind-hearted."
"My father has always told me that when you are a person, you should leave a way out for yourself so that we can meet again in the future. Lord Li admits his mistakes and corrects them, which is a great virtue. We should give him a chance."
Chu Di smiled slowly, took her hand, and led her out, "Tomorrow morning, we will set off back to the imperial capital."
Chu Li said, "You've been here for a few days, but you haven't had a good time exploring Jiangnan City. I'll take you for a walk."
"good."
Jiangnan City is a gentle, leisurely place with a very slow pace of life. The spring-like climate all year round has made it develop into a rich water town. The production of rice, tea and silk cloth is top-notch in the State of Chu.
Chu Dichi held her hand without hiding anything.
Several aunts knew Chu Li, and when they came to greet her, they all had gossipy eyes:
"Miss Xie, would you like to buy a piece of cake?"
"Miss Xie, good things are coming soon."
"Congratulations, Ms. Xie..."
Chu Li exerted a little force on his wrist but was unable to break free. He then looked at the man next to him, who was staring straight ahead without changing his expression, with no intention of letting go.
After walking along half a street, he took her into a clothing store.
The shopkeeper immediately greeted with a smile:
"My dear guests, what kind of clothes would you like to see? We have just received six pieces of floating light nine cloud brocade, which is a specialty of the Qin State..."
He pushed over a hanger with a long flowing-sleeve dress.
The crescent-white brocade is exquisitely cut, with a slim waist and a light skirt. There is no complicated embroidery pattern, but the seemingly simple fabric is floating with a layer of light and shadow under the sunlight. If it is exposed to the sun, it will look so fairy-like.
Chu Dichi liked it at first sight and said, "Go try it."
Chu Li was slightly suspicious:
"I bought a lot of clothes some time ago."
"That's not enough, Xiaojiu. From now on, your dress, jewelry, and all your daily necessities will be bought by me."
Chu Dichi patted her waist and said, "Give it to her to try."
The shopkeeper smiled and bowed:
"Xiao Cui, Xiao Xue, the two of you come quickly and help this young lady change her clothes."
"yes."
These two guests are of extraordinary bearing and appearance, they must be rich or noble. If we serve them well, the order will be a big one!
He smiled:
"Sir, in addition to ready-made clothes, my shop also has the latest styles of embroidered shoes, all of which are embroidered stitch by stitch by the best embroiderers in Jiangnan City."
"Look at this lotus reflecting the sun, it is the most popular embroidery in Jiangnan this year."
"And this bellyband..."
Chu Li was changing clothes in the inner room. Two maids dressed her. When she came out from behind the curtain, she saw the shopkeeper saying something to Chu Dichi. He raised his finger and pointed:
"This, this, this is not needed, pack up the others."
"Uncle!"
What is this for!
How can I buy everything in such a big store?
Chu Dichi turned his head and looked.
The warm afternoon sun shone in through the window. The woman lifted the hem of her skirt and trotted on tiptoe, catching the white light. She seemed as light as dancing on the palm of her hand. Her unmade-up face was spotless, her porcelain-white complexion so delicate that it seemed unreal.
"What are you doing?"
Chu Li ran over and grabbed his wrist, "Boss, how much did he buy?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said:
"Miss, you are so lucky. The master loves you so much that he bought everything except the men's style and last year's old style in my store."
"This is too much. It's such a waste."
"Xiao Jiu is right." Chu Di's burning gaze lasted for several seconds before he moved away from her face. "Buy the one she's wearing, too."
"yes!"
The shopkeeper was grinning so hard that he couldn't stop. He called all the shop assistants together, closed the shop early, packed up the clothes, and carried them in bags to the lakeside cottage.
Many people are curious:
"Boss Zhang, are you closing the shop so early?"
"Wow, there are so many goods. Where are they going?"
This clothing store had just sold out, so Chu Dichi took her to the next jewelry store, and with a wave of his hand, he bought twenty sets of headwear.
Including the dressing table, dressing table, and gift boxes, it took twelve people to move them.
I also bought jewelry.
That’s not all. When passing by Guya Ju, he also bought a very rare large bed made of fragrant pear wood with dripping patterns.
bed!
He bought a bed from Jiangnan and moved back to the capital to sleep on it?
It would cost a lot of money just to transport it on the road.
He also cleared out all the storybooks in the bookstore and asked someone to move in six total boxes.
After two hours of shopping and spending a lot of money, Chu Li's mouth opened wide. He couldn't help but pull Chu Dichi's hand and asked in surprise:
"Uncle, have you taken so much money?"
