Wang Yunjuan and Zhong Yufeng, who were already curious, went to Qiao's side after hearing this.
Then, following her, all three of them stared at the glass mirror on the table.
The three were all shocked to see that they could see so clearly from such a distance.
However, remembering what Chi Yu had just said about this being fragile, they dared not go forward to touch it and could only look at Chi Yu in unison.
"Little Fish, why did you take this out?"
"To be honest, Sister Qiao, the reason I took this out was that I originally intended to sell it to you."
Having heard about your difficulties, I still intend to cooperate with you on the soap business.
I'm not satisfied with your inability to pay on time.
Right now, I can only offer this as a temporary measure, not for sale to you.
Instead, they want to leverage your family connections to sell to outsiders.
No matter how many you sell, I'll give you 30%.
I think as long as the situation on your family's side improves even a little, then we can continue our cooperation.
And by then, they shouldn't be delaying my dividend payment, right?
Qiao was somewhat moved, but still said, "Little Fish, your mirror is good, but it's worth at most a few hundred taels."
Even if they give my family 30%, any more than that won't alleviate our situation.
Chi Yu nodded, and while putting the mirror away, he picked up another brocade box in front of everyone.
Then he walked towards the door, calling out to everyone, "Come out and see!"
The weather is fine and sunny today.
This glass gemstone is most dazzling in the sunlight.
That's why the fish in the pond went straight out.
Seeing her acting so mysteriously, Mrs. Qiao couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.
Once they reached the courtyard, Chi Yu opened the brocade box, and all that remained was the gleam of the glass jewelry.
The rest was not very clear.
The fish covered them up again and went back inside.
Qiao followed closely behind, and after sitting down, she asked expectantly:
"Little Fish Sister, may I take another look at that brocade box?"
I think I just saw a ring and a bracelet, right?
I saw blue, green, and two other colors that I couldn't make out clearly.
Chi Yu nodded, spouting nonsense with a straight face.
“Alright, these are all gemstone jewelry, which are different from the jade and other precious stones currently available in the Great Chu Kingdom.”
Like glass mirrors, this is a fragile item.
It was given to me by that wandering Taoist priest, who said it was part of my dowry.
When I was little, I didn't know any better and accidentally broke a purple one while playing with it. Be careful.
Qiao nodded, stood up, and stepped forward, then opened the brocade box again.
Because the lighting inside is not as good as in the sunlight.
Therefore, when she opened it this time, Ms. Qiao could clearly see the appearance of each piece of jewelry.
She stroked each item with a hint of affection, quickly calculating in her mind where her family could sell these things.
Who to sell it to, and for what price?
If they were sent to the capital and sold to high-ranking officials and nobles, each one could fetch two thousand taels, so they could easily make sixteen thousand taels.
Then the bride's family would receive 4,800 taels.
Nearly five thousand taels may not seem like much, but it's not a small amount either; it can at least ease the family's financial burden for two or three months.
It's already February, and it will be at least March before it's delivered to Jinling and then to the capital.
