Ran Fang looked at the colored glass box in front of him, unable to hide the smile in his eyes.
He did not answer Cao Yangyun's question. Instead, he covered the box and looked at him.
"No need."
"Just ask the craftsman to make thirty more flower boxes. After they are done, make the third drawing."
"Only fifty of the things on those drawings can be made, no more."
"After you become proficient in the craftsman's skills, you can make more delicate items."
Hearing what he said, Cao Yangyun was even more puzzled.
However, he could only obey Ran Fang's orders.
"Here."
"What other orders do you have, sir?"
Ran Fang leaned back, but there was only a wall and no chair back he wanted, so he had to sit back.
No one noticed his embarrassment. He covered his mouth with his hand, coughed lightly and said, "Look for a shop in the most prosperous part of the city."
"Looking for a good businessman who can take care of the shop and then sell all the Wan Gen."
"The price...a Wanyuan is twenty gold."
Hearing Ran Fang's price, Cao Yangyun looked at him with wide eyes, in disbelief.
You must know that the salary of the three princes in this court is only two thousand dan a year, which is about twenty gold.
For ordinary people, this money may last ten years.
But with so much silver, I’m afraid no one will buy a Wanyen that can only be used as a decoration, right?
Even so, he did not dare to disobey Ran Fang, thinking that when the time came that he couldn't sell it, Ran Fang would find a way.
"Here."
After speaking, Cao Yangyun picked up the box and turned to leave.
"Wait a moment!"
Ran Fang called out to him, and Cao Yangyun immediately turned around, holding the box and bowing his head respectfully.
"Please give me your orders."
"The decoration of the shop must be beautiful, so that people's eyes will brighten up as soon as they enter the door. Then there will be a wooden board next to the items, with 'Same Style as Your Majesty' written on it."
"The name of this shop is Liuguang Pavilion."
Although he was puzzled, Cao Yangyun still didn't say a word "no".
"Here."
After confirming that Ran Fang did not give any instructions, he saluted and left.
…
With the help of the Gu family, the shop was found in one day and decorated according to Ran Fang's requirements.
Gu Siyuan personally supervised the work. Seeing this bright shop, he was very puzzled.
The Gu family's shops have always been practical and simple. Even in the entire Xianyang City, we have never seen such a shop.
When the day came for the opening, he couldn't control his mood and came outside Liuguang Pavilion.
At this time, the outside of Liuguang Pavilion was very lively. There were lion dance, drum dance, and yangko performances here, attracting many people to stop here.
After the performance quieted down, the shopkeeper invited people to come in and visit.
But after seeing the decoration inside, no one dared to step in.
Gu Siyuan, on the other hand, was not affected at all and strode in.
When I saw Wanyen placed there, it looked particularly gorgeous and conspicuous against the backdrop of the bright room. It was really hard to take my eyes away.
Now, he understood what Ran Fang meant.
There was also a "Same as His Majesty" placed there, which made him even more excited!
"Sir, indeed, this thing is truly amazing!"
"First get a Wanyen for me, young master!"
Gu Siyuan waved his hand, and someone immediately stepped forward carefully and brought Wan Gen in front of him.
Put it on the cabinet, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong with Wan Gen, he put it in a wooden box. There was a mark in the box to keep Wan Gen stable inside without shaking.
The shopkeeper looked at Gu Siyuan and said politely: "Sir, the total is twenty gold."
When he heard the price, Gu Siyuan's always confident expression revealed a rare hint of surprise. He didn't expect this item to be so expensive.
However, the Gu family's strength always cared about these things, so he took out his wallet, weighed it and put it on the table.
"All for you."
The shopkeeper opened the purse and counted the money inside. After getting enough 20 gold coins, he handed the purse back.
"Exactly twenty gold."
"Thank you, Master Gu, for your visit. Master, go slowly!"
Gu Siyuan hugged the box and left happily, with a happy expression on his face, as if he had benefited greatly.
The people watching the excitement at the door just now were all discussing the Liuguang Pavilion.
"Looking at the names, Liu, Guang, and Ge, I don't know what they mean?"
Someone nearby looked at the two pillars next to the door and couldn't help but recite: "The formation of wild geese is emptying, and the shadows are reflected in the clouds according to the scene; the round windows of the mountain and moon are filled with color, and the bright colors are full of pearls."
"It seems that Liuguang Pavilion sells fine things!"
"I just heard that the young master of the Gu family bought one and actually spent twenty gold!"
"That's not true. I heard that your Majesty's palace also has this thing. It is very noble..."
"Really?! Your Majesty has one too!"
"It's true. There is a board at the door, and it says 'The same style as His Majesty'. Although I don't understand the meaning of the same style, but it says His Majesty, it's no different."
After hearing what they said, Liuguang Pavilion spread in Xianyang City.
There are even people who are preaching that the things in Liuguang Pavilion belong to His Majesty, which is a great gift.
If I can use the same thing as His Majesty, my family will also benefit from it. This is a rare opportunity.
For a time, many wealthy businessmen came to Liuguang Pavilion in person, wanting to buy a Wanyuan.
At noon, many people gathered at the door, but they were stopped by the shopkeeper.
"Everyone, this Wan Gen is very precious. If you buy it back and accidentally break your heart, I, Liuguang Pavilion, will not be responsible for it. I hope you will understand."
"After everyone enters later, please be careful. If you accidentally touch it and break it, you will have to buy it for twenty gold."
"One more thing, although these Wan Gen look the same, each one is unique. You can check carefully. If you like any one, a servant will come up and pick it up. Please don't act rashly!"
"If you have no objections, please go ahead."
After saying that, the shopkeeper turned around and went in. He was very different from the shopkeepers in other shops.
Seeing how serious he was, the people who had interacted with each other quietly walked into Liuguang Pavilion.
Seeing the decorations inside and the Wanyen on the shelf, everyone couldn't help but exclaimed.
"It's so beautiful——"
"No wonder it's a divine thing. It's such a surprise."
"I want this!"
After this order was given, everyone who came in began to pick the Wanyen they liked, fearing that they would be overtaken by others if they were too late.
"Shopkeeper, I want this!"
As they were talking, someone immediately came forward to take it and walked to the account counter, waiting for the shopkeeper to collect the money.
In less than an hour, there were only five Wan Gen left in Liuguang Pavilion.
Everyone who leaves here is smiling, as if they have taken advantage of themselves.
"Okay, okay!"
"My master will definitely praise me when I get back!"
"Yes, this is an honor given by His Majesty!"
At this time, the shopkeeper looked at the silver coins that he had put away and was amazed in his heart.
At the same time, he was very happy that he could go back to work.
"Good, very good."
"The adults will definitely be happy!"
