Chapter 96 Goodbye(2/3)

Because it was the truth, Shen He said it very seriously,

Although she knew that Ouyang was not that arrogant, she still explained her words first since she had no need.

But Ouyang didn't think so. It was obvious that his eyes lit up when he saw those exquisite porcelain and jades.

This is enough to prove that Shen He likes it.

In that case, it's just a matter of buying some jewelry. Your family doesn't lack Mora.

But Ouyang did not criticize him. Now Shen He has slowly adapted to it. This is a relatively good signal.

Since she said to take a look, she should take a look at it more, and then buy it when she passes by Mingxingzhai.

When passing by a porcelain store, Ouyang discovered that the store did not have a name. He looked at it curiously and walked in with Shen He.

When the clerk Atai saw the visitor, he smiled quickly.

"Hey, what do you two want to see? Everything here is a rare treasure."

Treasures...

Ouyang was a little surprised when he looked at the dazzling array of items displayed in the store.

It's not that I'm surprised that those things are treasures, this Ouyang doesn't understand.

He was just a little surprised that although there were many things in the store, they were placed in such a haphazard manner that they looked very messy.

It stands to reason that porcelains of various sizes will be placed in adjacent locations, and small pieces of jade and jade will also be placed together, separated by some calligraphy and paintings. This is what a normal store should look like.

But obviously the owner of this store may have a weird temper. Everything is placed randomly, which makes Ouyang, a person with a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, very uncomfortable.

"Things here are a bit messy."

"These are not for sale, so I don't care if they are messy or not."

Hearing such an answer, Ouyang couldn't help but look at the clerk curiously.

According to his understanding, when a store says "not for sale", that is when the other party wants to charge a high price.

Thinking of this, Ouyang continued to ask indifferently.

"Not for sale, is there anything special about what you have here?"

"Hey, are you interested?"

"Well, come and listen."

Originally he was just wandering around, thinking this store was interesting and wanted to hear about it. However, Ouyang didn't expect that the store clerk's next behavior opened his eyes.

"Okay, please allow me to talk to you carefully."

Artai turned around and carefully took out a porcelain bottle and displayed it in front of the two of them. The smile on his face subsided slightly and he introduced it in a slightly exaggerated tone.

"Come and take a look at this porcelain vase. Although it may not be of average quality, it is quite old. The price is worth half of Chihuyan!"

After saying that, before Ouyang could speak, Artai turned around and put the porcelain bottle away, took out a small incense burner and introduced it.

"Then take a look at this small incense burner. It is said that it has been enshrined in front of the statue of Lord Yan for thousands of years, and it has long been tainted with the fairy wind! The price is even more difficult to estimate."

After saying that, Artai still made the same move, putting the incense burner back, and when he was about to take out the third thing, Ouyang interrupted.

"Stop a minute, your store is full of this kind of stuff? Why do you feel like you are talking about fakes?"

"Hey, don't talk nonsense."

Artai seemed to be worried, he pointed to the Qianyan Army patrolling not far away and said.

"Did you see that because of the existence of my store, the Qianyan Army specially arranged for people to patrol nearby, just to prevent young people from coming to make trouble."

Looking in the direction pointed by the other party, Ouyang did spot the patrolling Qianyan Army. Not only that, there were also several soldiers standing guard at the intersection.

But Ouyang was unmoved and continued to ask.

"So these are all genuine goods?"

"Yes, these are all priceless treasures, not for sale!"

"Since it's not for sale, why did you open this store?"

"Look what you said, who said you have to sell things when opening a store? Our master bought this store just to display these treasures and show off to the people on the street.

Our master has said that what we want are passers-by like you, who come and ask for the price without knowing how high the price is. These things are very expensive, so we won’t sell them!"

Crazy?

Although we are eating Huyan, it still costs a lot of money to buy a store. Is this the bad taste of the rich?

"Who is your master?"

"Who do you care about my master? I won't tell you anyway."

Looking at the clerk whose smile had long since disappeared, Ouyang stopped talking and turned around to leave with Shen He in hand.

Shen He obviously didn't expect things to develop like this, she asked doubtfully.

"Are those things in that store real treasures?"

"Who knows, but I guess there is a high probability that they are fakes, at least not as impressive as he claims."

"Huh? Why?"

"There are Qianyan troops patrolling here. The existence of this store is just one of the possibilities. The most important thing is that this is the warehouse of the South Pier. It is an important warehouse and of course it needs to be guarded."

"Got it, black shop."

"Hahaha, if it's a black shop, you'll know just by asking."

With that said, Ouyang led Shen He to the patrolling Qianyan Army, handed the opponent his badge, and asked.

"Do you know who the owner of that unnamed store is?"

Hongyi, who was questioned, did not answer. He carefully checked the waist tag first, and after seeing that it was genuine, he respectfully returned the waist tag to Ouyang.

"Sir, I really don't know the owner of that store. I have to go to the General Affairs Department to check."

Is it so troublesome?

Ouyang was not really that serious, but he really wanted to know who the owner of that store was.

Generally speaking, that store felt a bit like a black store to him.

For example, if a tourist accidentally breaks something that is so hyped up, it would be really hard to explain.

It’s normal for rich people to collect some good things and want to show them off, but isn’t the normal process to invite a few friends to come to your home to taste them together?

Most of the people you meet in daily life are from the same social circle. Just let those people know that you are awesome.

How can there be such a practice of announcing to the world?

Of course, Ouyang also knew that this was Teyvat, and there were many talented people with brilliant minds. Maybe the owner of that store was a very smart person.

Ouyang did not continue to embarrass the Qianyan Army. When he was about to leave, he saw that the other party looked different and asked again.

"Why are you looking so sad? Something happened?"

"Uh, who are you, my lord?"

Hongyi did have something on his mind, but he didn't know the other party's identity and couldn't speak out.

Although the waistband is genuine, it only indicates that the other party has a high status and does not clearly indicate the other party's identity.

"My name is Ouyang."

Upon hearing the name, Hongyi's pupils dilated instantly and he looked at the two people in front of him in shock.

After carefully seeing Ouyang's face, Hongyi immediately gave a military salute.

"I've met Mr. Ouyang!"

"Well, tell me, have you encountered something?"

Hongyi didn't expect to meet Qixing here, and the most mysterious Lord Tianshuxing. After calming down, he expressed his worries.

"It's like this. The water source near Feiyunpo seems to be polluted and exudes a rotten smell. Now it is inconvenient for everyone to get water. Many people can only come to Chihuyan or farther away to get water.

What’s more, taking this opportunity to make money, they targeted the old, young, women and children and charged high fees for carrying water. Alas...many people had no choice but to compromise."

After listening, Ouyang's expression did not change and he continued to ask.

"How many days has this happened? Didn't the General Affairs Department take care of it?"

"I don't know, I'm just a soldier. I've already reported this matter. It's already the third day.

However, the General Affairs Department did not take any action. It may be because Lord Yu Heng, who is in charge of the land and people’s livelihood, is not in Liyue and cannot arrange it immediately.”

"Well, you did a good job. I happen to be going to the General Affairs Department. I'll go take a look."

"Thank you, sir!"

Hongyi saluted respectfully, and after Ouyang and the others left, he raised his lowered head. Until this moment, he still felt a little unbelievable.

You can actually encounter Master Tianshu Xing while patrolling the streets?!

Moreover, the adult's attitude is very gentle, and he doesn't seem to have any airs.
