Facts have proved that the Wang family is not only rich, but also has a deep foundation.
Kang Yueran found calligraphy and paintings by many great literati, and even their daily manuscripts, including those of Li Si, Zhang Zhi, Cai Yong, and the Two Wangs.
The most exaggerated thing is that there are some inscriptions that are worthy of being regarded as the golden rule by scholars.
When she finished packing and came out of the space, it was almost dawn. She closed her eyes and went to sleep for a while.
Wang family
The two people who were knocked unconscious by Kang Yueran were discovered by other patrolmen. A basin of cold water was poured on them, and both of them woke up.
The man who gave Kang Yueran directions saw that the other man didn't know anything, so he followed that man's lead and said that he knew nothing after being knocked unconscious.
He knew very well that if the master knew that he had given directions to the thieves, he would end up in a miserable state.
If a thief comes in and doesn't hurt anyone, he must be after money.
Li Dazongguan asked the people guarding the warehouse to ask, but they all said nothing happened. He didn't dare to open the warehouse to check without permission, so he waved his hand and sent the servants away without reporting to his master.
After washing up, Chai Shijing came to Kang Yueran's room, wet a towel and handed it to Kang Yueran to wipe her face. He asked, "There's a Taoist temple outside the city. They say it's very accurate for praying for marriage. Do you want to go?"
Kang Yueran had makeup on her face, so she simply wiped it off and put down the handkerchief. "Do you believe in Buddhism or Taoism?"
"As long as they bless me to fulfill my wish, I will believe it!"
Kang Yueran smiled sweetly, "Can we go in the afternoon? I have something to go out for this morning. Let's have lunch in the city, get our things ready, and then go to the Taoist temple in the afternoon. We'll stay there for one night and then go back to Anzhou tomorrow."
"Going back so soon? I can still stay with you for a few more days."
The Wang family was robbed, which would definitely alert the city guards. We couldn't stay in Mingzhou for long. "From Mingzhou to Anzhou, we have to pass through several towns. Let's take our time."
Chai Shijing was fine with anything, "Okay! Do you, do you need my help with your matter?" He wanted to go with Kang Yueran, but was afraid that Kang Yueran would be angry.
"No need! You, Yiming, and Dacheng should pack your things and buy some snacks for the journey. We'll go to Xianquanlou for lunch at noon."
Chai Shijing felt a little disappointed, "Okay!" He really didn't like Kang Yueran hiding things from him. This made him anxious and worried, and he always felt that Kang Yueran would leave him at any time.
Kang Yueran understood everything. She hugged Chai Shijing and said, "My master is in Mingzhou. I'll go see him. Don't worry!"
"Okay! Then come back early!"
After breakfast, Kang Yueran went out alone. She went into the space and bought dozens of different-sized crystal bracelets and ornaments in the mall. She put on Zu Cong's face and voice, wore high-heeled shoes, and went to Baoyu Tower.
She took out a bracelet and showed it to the clerk, and soon met Manager Nie of Baoyu Tower.
Shopkeeper Nie spoke gently, "Young man, may I have a look at your Fei Se gemstone?"
Kang Yueran opened the bag she was carrying and showed it to Shopkeeper Nie. "This is a whole piece of Feise gemstone. My father gave it to me before he died and asked me to sell it and go to the south to seek refuge with my relatives. Shopkeeper Nie, please name a price."
There are many colors of crystal, but she couldn't explain the origins of so many colors, so she chose the same color.
Shopkeeper Nie, accustomed to fine goods, was still stunned by the sight of dozens of crystals. "How much silver do you plan to sell them for, young master?"
"I heard this gem comes from overseas and is extremely rare. I offer a price of one hundred thousand taels of silver."
If you quote a price that the other party cannot accept, then the other party will probably not counter-offer with a price that you cannot accept.
Shopkeeper Nie was startled. "Young Master, you must be joking. One hundred thousand taels of silver is no small sum. How about fifty thousand taels of silver?"
Fifty thousand taels of silver, she had made a killing! "Manager Nie, that's too little! These gems are truly unique in Dayong."
The seller didn't react much to the price he offered, which means that the seller might accept this price.
Shopkeeper Nie said with a smile, "Fifty thousand taels is quite a lot. Since you're going south, it's inconvenient for you to carry so much silver. I can give you some banknotes from the Dali Bank, which also has a shop in the south."
Kang Yueran shook her head. "I don't want the banknotes, I want the gold. I have two brothers, so we have to share it among the three of us. If Manager Nie can give me six thousand taels of gold, I will sell these gems."
"Since it's a three-way split, I'll give you a little more. How about 51,000 taels of silver?"
Kang Yueran said helplessly: "Shopkeeper Nie is very good at negotiating prices. I am no match for you. Do you have gold now?"
"The Dali Bank in Mingzhou must have enough gold."
A quarter of an hour later, Kang Yueran came out of Baoyu Tower carrying a bag, which contained banknotes.
She first went to the market, bought a flatbed cart, and drove it to the Dali Money House. "Call your shopkeeper. I need to exchange some gold."
The clerk quickly called the shopkeeper over, and Kang Yueran handed over all the silver notes in the bundle. "Here are 51,000 taels of silver notes in total. I want 5,000 taels of gold and 1,000 taels of silver."
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment and didn't take the banknote. "I shouldn't ask about the origin of banknotes, but this is the first time I've encountered such a large amount of money being exchanged at once."
Dali Money House is the largest money house in Mingzhou. It was not the first time for the shopkeeper to see a large amount of exchange, but the first time he saw Kang Yueran.
Kang Yueran replied: "As long as the banknote is genuine, you should exchange it. Why are you asking so many questions?
I got the silver note by selling a family heirloom. It's legitimate, don't worry. I'm going south to seek refuge with my relatives, and it's inconvenient to carry silver with me, so I need to exchange it for gold."
The shopkeeper pondered for a moment and asked, "Where in the south are you going, young man? Our Dali Bank also has a branch in the south."
"I know you have a branch shop, but I don't want to wait until I get to the south to exchange it."
"Why is that?"
Kang Yueran lost his patience. "Why are you asking so much? Do I need to explain to you what I did?"
The shopkeeper's eyes flashed with a hint of cruelty, and he smiled and said, "Dear guest, what are you talking about? I will ask someone to exchange it for gold for you right away."
Kang Yueran didn't miss that dangerous signal, "Hurry up, I still have to get him out of the city."
The gold was carried to the lobby for Kang Yueran to inspect. Kang Yueran opened the two boxes and found that the gold cakes all looked the same without any markings.
She casually pulled a few out of the two boxes and weighed them. Each weighed ten taels. Seeing nothing wrong with their appearance, she threw them to the ground and found they didn't break.
Kang Yueran nodded and pointed to the cart at the door, "Help me lift it onto the cart!"
The four guys lifted it onto a cart and considerately secured it with ropes.
The shopkeeper came forward and asked, "These two boxes are very heavy. Would you like me to send someone to give you a ride?"
"No need! I can pull it!" After saying that, he pulled the cart and left.
Afterwards, two burly men came out of the money shop and quietly followed Kang Yueran.
