Chapter 354 No one except me
Emperor Xi Chu took the ring and looked at it carefully. After a while, he stood up suddenly and said with excitement: "How could it be? How could it be cut like this?"
Emperor Xi Chu's gaffe aroused everyone's curiosity, and everyone looked at the ring one after another.
Emperor Xichu touched the ring with trembling hands.
"Not only can it be cut like this, but there are also other styles, and all kinds of gemstones can be cut."
"Is this true?" The Emperor of Western Chu looked at Sheng Zhiyao in disbelief.
"I don't need to lie to you with this thing! Didn't you see it yourself? If you don't believe it, I have other styles here." Sheng Zhiyao took out a few more rings and bracelets from her cuffs. These were not hers.
As a medical student, I have no time to wear such jewelry.
These jewelry belonged to her mother. When she was young, her mother said that when she grew up, these would belong to her and be regarded as her dowry. As a result, her parents left her when she just graduated from elementary school, so these things stayed with her.
Grandpa's.
The Emperor of Xi Chu carefully inspected the ring and found it was fine. He was excited and said, "You...how do you have so many treasures? Do you know how precious these things are?"
"Of course I know these are precious, but I have such technology, so I have the confidence to talk to you about the development rights, Your Majesty. Cooperation is a win-win situation. Trade between the two countries is more valuable than marriage."
These words made the Emperor of Xichu silent for a moment. He knew very well that Xichu was currently facing many conflicts at home and abroad. If there were such technology and the friendship and assistance between the two countries, Xichu would usher in unprecedented development opportunities.
only……
"Princess, I need to think about it."
"Okay, if you think about it, send someone to let me know at any time."
After hearing these words, the Emperor of Western Chu fell into deep thought again.
Sheng Zhiyao didn't say anything else. The banquet ended indifferently, but the things she brought were impressive, especially the rings and bracelets, which were simply rare treasures. After this matter was reported back to Shang Zhou, more information would be added.
It caused a sensation.
"Zhiyao, you actually have such a good thing, and you didn't even tell me." Grandpa Ding said with emotion while sitting on the stone bench while drinking tea.
"Grandpa Ding, you didn't tell us that you and the Emperor of Western Chu were close friends." Sheng Zhiyao poured a glass of water for Grandpa Ding, "And from what the Emperor of Western Chu meant, you ran away secretly?
"
"Who said I ran away?" Grandpa Ding puffed his beard and glared, "I walked out of Ling'an in an upright manner back then!"
"Okay, you are so wise and powerful!" Sheng Zhiyao quickly changed her words to praise.
"Humph, don't change the subject. Tell me, where did you get those just now." Grandpa Ding continued to pursue the issue of gems.
"It's my grandfather's place. You don't know that he has countless treasures. It's more than enough to fool the emperor of Western Chu by just finding something."
"Sheng Lixin?" Grandpa Ding frowned in confusion, and then suddenly realized, "His collection is indeed very precious. I should have thought of it a long time ago. Your grandfather had a lot of weird things in the past."
"Yes." Sheng Zhiyao responded with a smile, not intending to reveal the secrets in the space. "My grandfather's collection is indeed quite large."
Seeing her like this, Grandpa Ding sighed helplessly: "But this old turtle refuses to let go, so these good things are really wasted."
Sheng Zhiyao couldn't help laughing when she heard this, "Grandpa Ding, don't worry, he will definitely agree."
Grandpa Ding glanced sideways at Sheng Zhiyao: "Girl, do you have any idea?"
"There are ways, but I am confident that the Emperor of Western Chu will definitely come to me." Sheng Zhiyao was confident, and she had a premonition that the Emperor of Western Chu would come to beg her.
"You kid!" Grandpa Ding shook his head, "That's all, I can't help, I'm going to bed." Grandpa Ding stood up, walked slowly to the door and then turned back, "By the way, tomorrow
Don’t call me before noon!”
Sheng Zhiyao smiled and nodded: "Okay."
Grandpa Ding left satisfied.
"You girl, are you so sure that the Emperor of Western Chu will come to you?" Feng Yuanchen asked while sitting at the table.
"Of course,
Didn't you notice the way he looked at those gems just now?"
"I noticed it, but I also noticed these jewelry. You have already thought about it, right?"
Sheng Zhiyao pursed her lips and smiled: "Of course. Before I came to Xichu again, I had thought about selling Shang Zhou's things here. But the other day I heard you said that Xichu has many mineral veins and is rich in gems. I
That’s how I thought of it.”
"Actually, Grandpa Huang also thought about the trade issues between the two countries in the past, but because of the huge disparity in national power between the two countries, even trade cannot make money, and it can easily cause disputes between the two countries." Feng Yuanchen said.
Sheng Zhiyao raised her eyebrows but said nothing.
Trade between the two countries is not profitable? How is this possible! This reason is too far-fetched. In this era, the profits from trade between the two countries are far more than gold, silver and jewelry. It can also stimulate the economy and make people's lives prosperous.
"There is indeed a huge disparity in national power between Shang Zhou and Xi Chu, but those who say they cannot make money must be because they do not have the ability. But I am different, Yuan Chen, if we promote trade between the two countries, we will start mining ore
It is possible to polish and cut it and make it into jewelry or ornaments, which can be huge profits!" Sheng Zhiyao said very excitedly.
"But, I don't think old man Xichu will give us the development rights." Feng Yuanchen reminded, "You have to know that Xichu has never given these mines to anyone other than the royal family."
Sheng Zhiyao shrugged and said it didn't matter: "It doesn't matter if I don't develop it myself. I just buy the rough stones from them and make them myself. If I make them well, I can double them and sell them to them. I have the skills and I'm not afraid."
"Aren't you afraid of being robbed of your technology?" Feng Yuanchen looked at her with a smile, "After all, you announced these jewelry today, so more than one person is coveting this technology."
"So what, my technology is unique and no one can make it except me." Sheng Zhiyao raised her head proudly, "Isn't it?"
Feng Yuanchen was stunned for a moment, then laughed. Yes, no matter what, as long as she had the method to make this kind of jewelry, no one would dare to steal it. As for those people who coveted her craftsmanship, she didn't care at all.
"Okay, go to bed early, you will definitely be busy tomorrow." Feng Yuanchen patted her head gently.
"I understand." Sheng Zhiyao nodded obediently, "I'm going back to my room to rest first."
After watching her leave, Feng Yuanchen turned around and went back to the house to wash up. He lay on the bed but couldn't fall asleep. What Sheng Zhiyao said kept lingering in his mind: My technology is unique, and no one can make it except me.
Yes, he has never seen these technologies before.
