Chapter 612: Baoshang Bank, Zhuang Ruolan
Li Meiqian's eyes were filled with sarcasm in response to Shu He's words.
"You said it was the colorful colored glass from the Beichang Jin family, right? To me, the colors are too stiff, and the surface is extremely rough. It's obviously fake!"
"Things that are inferior in quality should be destroyed!"
"hehe!"
Shu He was so angry that she laughed. "Madam Liu, you are the daughter-in-law of the Princess's Mansion after all. I think you should have seen the world! How come you can't tell the difference between the best and the inferior glass?"
"Should I ask the princess to find someone to appraise my colorful glass tea set and see if it's a good item?"
Before Li Meiqian could say anything, a tall, handsome man walked into the crowd and said, "There's no need to look for anyone else. I, the owner of this manor, can tell you clearly that the colorful glass tea set is from the Jin family of Beichang, and it's the last work of the old master of the Jin family!"
"This tea set is the only one of its kind in the world, and it's also a treasure kept by the old castle owner!"
Everyone looked at the man who suddenly appeared, puzzled. "Who is this man? How does he know the origin of this colorful glass tea set?"
The person next to him shook his head and said, "I've never seen him before. I don't know who he is."
Li Meiqian looked at the newcomer, puzzled, and then sneered, "Shu He, if you want to justify your gift, shouldn't you find someone with some fame? Don't you think it's ridiculous to find such an unknown person?"
Why is he here?
Shu He looked at the person who came, and after being surprised, his face was filled with embarrassment and guilt.
"Madam Liu, what are you talking about? Why can't an unknown person see such a good thing? You are famous, so why do you lie so openly?"
When everyone heard this, they all laughed out loud.
The sarcastic laughter that echoed one after another made Li Meiqian blush. "You, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Am I talking nonsense?" The man held a smooth white jade flute in his hand, a wicked smile on his handsome face. "If you weren't lying, how could you call such fine, top-grade colored glass a fake?"
"Or are you simply ignorant and don't know what is the best glass?"
The man's face was filled with a hint of sarcasm. "If you say that, then I can't accept it! After all, she's the daughter-in-law of the eldest princess, and she can't even tell what the best colored glass is. Isn't that too ridiculous?!"
"You bastard, how dare you laugh at me!!"
The word "joke" was like a thorn that pierced Li Meiqian's heart. She was furious and swung her hand to hit the man.
However, her palm was only halfway swung, and finally stopped two inches outside the man's cheek, blocked by a jade flute, and could not move forward any further.
The casualness on the man's face was replaced by indifference, and there seemed to be a growing murderous intent in his cold eyes.
Li Meiqian looked at this scene in surprise, and exerted force with her hands again, resulting in the jade flute being shaken so hard that she took several steps back, and her entire arm was numb.
Only then did she look seriously at the man in front of her.
"White jade flute..."
Someone in the crowd noticed this and exclaimed, "Could it be Zhuang Ruolan, the owner of Baoshang Bank?"
It is said that the owner of Baoshang Money House was very fond of music. He once sent a huge piece of white jade raw stone to Tianji Pavilion and asked Pavilion Master Murong Lian to make him a white jade flute that was both a musical instrument and a weapon.
The transverse flute has a warm color and a transparent texture. At the same time, the flute body has a hidden secret. It can shoot out 108 pear blossom jade needles at the same time. The design is exquisite and can be regarded as another masterpiece of Murong Lian!
"Look at the jade flute in that man's hand. Just by looking at its appearance, you can tell it's of extraordinary quality! If it weren't for a master like Murong Lian, no one else could have made it!"
The man, whose expression had returned to its natural and casual state, seemed to have not heard the discussions. He simply picked up two pieces of the broken glass tea set and walked towards Shu He.
"Princess Li spent a huge amount of money and even Prince Li's face, and took a lot of effort to get this set of glass tea sets back from me. I didn't expect that this is how you treat them?!"
It's really uncomfortable!
Shu He showed a trace of embarrassment on his face and apologized, "Mr. Zhuang, I'm sorry, this is really not what I want..."
She never thought that such a valuable thing would be damaged like this.
Hearing Shu He call him "Mr. Zhuang", Baili Ruyun stepped forward in surprise, "You are the owner of Baoshang Money House, Zhuang Ruolan, Mr. Zhuang?"
This Baoshang Money House is the first money house in Tianqi in the past thirty years to thrive in the silver bank business, and it has also opened money houses in the five major countries across the continent.
It is said that except for Tianqi, the other four countries are all full of branches of Baoshang Money House, and as long as the silver notes are from Baoshang Money House, they can be used in the five countries without any restrictions!
I didn’t expect that the owner of Baoshang Bank is so young!
Zhuang Ruolan clasped her fists and bowed to Baili Ruyun: "Zhuang Ruolan, greetings to the Third Princess."
Li Meiqian's face turned from blue to red, and her expression was extremely ugly.
"Mr. Zhuang, you are polite!" Baili Ruyun also quickly returned the greeting.
Although merchants have a low status, they are in the money business, especially the Baoshang Money House with branches everywhere. Not to mention her, even her father would probably show some respect to them.
This person controls most of the world's wealth! If anyone can conquer him, it would be like holding the lifeline of the world's wealth in their hands!
Of course, people like this need to be recruited.
"I never thought that this colorful glass tea set is yours!" Baili Ruyun's face was full of guilt. If she had known that the origin of this tea set was so amazing, she should have received these gifts in person!
Zhuang Ruolan feigned anger as she grumbled, "Of course it's mine! I was planning to keep it for myself, but your seventh sister-in-law learned that your husband loves tea art and collects tea-related items, so she shamelessly came to me and forcibly 'purchased' this colorful glass tea set."
"I never thought that something I worked so hard to obtain would be wasted like this. What a pity..."
Baili Ruyun's face was also full of embarrassment, "This, this..."
She had never expected that Shu He had put so much thought into purchasing this tea set for her husband. This thoughtfulness really touched her...
If my husband knew that such a fine tea set was destroyed by someone, he would probably be heartbroken, right?
This Li Meiqian is such a damn bastard!!
"Mr. Zhuang, the princess and I can't be blamed for this. After all, it's easier to dodge an open attack than to defend against an arrow from the dark. Who would have known that someone was deliberately causing trouble?"
Shu He looked at Li Meiqian. His seemingly peaceful eyes made the person being stared at feel a chill in his heart.
