Chapter 50: School Chat

Du Hongmiao saw Niu Daqi's red face, full of energy, and smiled in a vulgar way.

"What, Daqi was so happy last night?"

Niu Daqi glanced at his old comrade-in-arms. You know that little look.

"Brother Du also wants to go? Two new ones in Yancui Building have come out. If you have any needs, I will ask someone to leave one for you today."

Du Hongmei was speechless, "Boy, I don't have the habit of yours. If you have that spare money, why don't you get two pounds of me to try it."

Niu Daqi has been in the army for so many years and has long become a personal sting. He quickly shook his head, "That's not possible. This top-notch tea is much more expensive than the women in Yancuilou, so I can't get it."

Du Hongmiao pointed Niu Daqi with his hand, "You have this little chance!"

Niu Daqi smiled.

As soon as the two of them got on the horse and before they could start moving, they led the horses to jog slowly along the edge of the school field.

"Hey, Brother Du, I heard something new in Yancuilou yesterday."

"Oh? What you call new is definitely very fresh. Come on, tell your brother Du."

I have to say that sometimes men gossip more terrifying than women.

Although Niu Daqi is tall and strong, he looks like an iron tower, but his mouth is inside, and he can't hide things.

Du Hongmiao came out of the same camp with him, of course he knew his fault.

Seeing Du Hongmiao appear to be listening attentively, he was excited at that time.

"Brother Du, do you still remember the crystal cup that Xilin Kingdom gave tribute to our master half a year ago?"

Du Hongmiao thought for a while, nodded, showing his desire to go.

The pair of palm-sized crystal cups that the Xilin Kingdom entered the palace were crystal clear and shiny, especially those filled with the wine from the Western Regions. Under the light, purple light flashed, which looked very beautiful.

That pair of crystal cups is priceless.

"What's wrong? Did you accidentally get a pair?" Du Hongmiao joked.

Niu Daqi shook his head, "My bad luck, how can I get such a treasure? It's not me, but that Yuan Anbo."

Du Hongmiao did not expect that the gossip Niu Daqi and him were like this.

Crystal cup, this is a priceless thing. Even if it is placed in Xilin Country, it is a national treasure. Its price is even more expensive than the best mutton fat jade. How could Yuan'an Bo suddenly get a pair?

And people like Yuan'anbo...

Du Hongmiao sensitively smelled a little different from it.

Yuan'an Bo is a down-and-out noble in the capital, and is not as good as the Yongxing Marquis Mansion.

At least the three generations of Yongxing Marquis' Mansion were close ministers around the emperor. Although their descendants were withered, they still had the power they should have. The old Marquis' remaining power was still there, but the wealth in the mansion was weak, which was because the master of Yongxing Marquis' Mansion was not good at managing it.

There is no such good situation in Yuan'anbo Mansion.

Since the current grandfather of Yuan'anbo, no one in Yuan'anbo's mansion has entered the court to be an official.

After the title was reduced, the first-class Duke's title had become the title of Count.

If the title is reduced, the salary and treatment will naturally be much worse than before.

Yuan'an Bo Mansion is exactly the opposite of Yongxing Hou Mansion. It is a "house of children and grandchildren". The legitimate branch is not good at learning, but it is very capable of thirst.

After three generations, there were about a hundred masters of Yuan'anbo's mansion.

After the family business that was not rich was divided over generations, the few things that fell into the hands of the current Yuan'anbo were pitifully small.

Yuan'an Bo was raised by his stepmother since he was a child, and he was also an unprofitable person. Seeing that Yuan'an Bo's mansion was declining day by day.

From simple to extravagant, it is easy to go from extravagant to simple. Yuan Anbo has been used to the wealthy days of clothing and food since he was a child. How could he be allowed to fight in the court now? Whether it is a military general or a civil servant, no matter whether it is a hard work.

So Yuan'anbo became a playboy in Yanjing City, and a poor playboy.

Now the Yuan'anbo Mansion is only left with a very fucking Count. With a little salary every year, Yuan'anbo has long become a joke in Yanjing City.

If someone like him gets a pair of priceless crystal cups, it’s not that he is lucky.

Du Hongmiao frowned a pair of dark and thick eyebrows, "Daqi, you and me said in detail."

Niu Daqi touched his chin with a look of memory.

"That's how it is..."

Speaking of the current Yuan'an Bo, he was also miserable. He was raised by his stepmother when he was young, but his wife who later married into the house was still a tigress.

In the backyard, my stepmother and wife took care of him, so she didn't even have money to drink wine. Amber was a remote person who liked to spend money.

If you don’t come to this “famous capital” flower-seeking road every day, you feel uncomfortable all over.

But his silver was really small, so he could only wander around the search for the flower path with his followers.

While wandering around, I didn't know why I entered Honghua Street opposite Xunhua Road, and then bought the pair of crystal cups at a low price in Jubaoxuan.

Although Yuan'an Bo is an ignorant playboy, he still has certain appreciation ability since he was influenced by his family environment. He could see at a glance that the pair of crystal cups were extraordinary, and immediately bought the baby at a low price and quickly returned to the mansion.

Maybe it was because he sought credit from his wife or stepmother that he had received 100 taels of silver.

He turned around and came to Yancuilou, lit the girl Haitang whom he had been thinking about for a long time. Haitang just drank a few more cups with him, and he became drunk and told him about this.

Where is Yancui Tower and where is Xunhua Road? What you said cannot be hidden at all.

A little bit of movement may spread throughout Yanjing City in a blink of an eye.

Niu Daqi went to Yancuilou, and the girl who accompanied him said this to him in a blink of an eye as a new thing.

Niu Daqi shook his head, "Brother Du, do you think this is strange? Yuan Anbo is a fool, and he has a lucky chance. He has got such a treasure after hitting this great fortune. With this pair of crystal cups, even if he sells it, it will be enough for him to be free for a few years."

Du Hongmiao is not as simple as Niu Daqi. He looks like everything.

He suddenly smelled a conspiracy from this incident.

Du Hongmiao frowned, "Where did you think this crystal cup was bought by Yuan Anbo?"

"The jade shop on Honghua Street has one of them called Jubaoxuan."

Jubaoxuan?

Du Hongmiao was chewing on this strange jade shop in his mouth.

Since His Highness Rui assisted in the administration, he and Niu Daqi have been transferred back for almost two years.

Over the past two years, this prosperous Yanjing City is no longer a strange place to him.

He has basically been to the ten-mile long street, the moat, the hundred-mile flower dike, and even Guiyuan Temple and Guihai Temple, and the Mingsheng of Yanjing.

He also heard about the streets of Honghua Street. Because of the lively flower roads, the business of jade shops on that street became more and more prosperous.

The two most famous shops are owned by the Prince of Qi, and the owner behind the one is the Secretary of Chen.

But he had never heard of the name of Jubaoxuan.
