Chapter 141, A mirror is hard to find

On a street in the capital city, a festive red team was walking slowly amidst gongs and drums. The bridegroom officer in a red robe rode in front on a tall horse, and behind was a red festive eight-carried sedan chair. shy bride.

In the back is the long wedding and dowry team. The team is very long and very festive. Those who beat gongs and drums and carry the dowry are hundreds of meters long. They immediately became the focus of everyone. .

"Tsk tsk, it's different for Li Yuan's family to marry a daughter. It's just that the dowry maids all look like gods. Even if I can marry this maid, it will be worth it all my life."

"Come on, you little toad wants to eat swan meat, and the maid of this rich family is not something you can think of."

"But as expected of Li Yuanwai, look at the dowry, the boxes of gold and silver, and the carts of silk and satin..."

"These are small heads. I heard that Li Yuanwai's daughter is married to the son of a fourth-rank official in the court. The fertile land outside the capital has allocated [-] mu. There are also two shops in the capital. Woolen cloth."

"My dear, three hundred acres of fertile land~"

On the street, all the people who saw the wedding procession kept watching with envy and jealousy.

At the same time, someone soon discovered something that had never been seen among the dowry items.

"The one at the front of the dowry dowry is the dressing table. This mirror is too bright."

"That thing?"

"It's the dressing table behind the four dowry maids. Do you see that mirror? It's so bright and big~"

"Isn't it? I haven't discovered it yet. There is such a mirror in the world. It's incredible."

"Could this be the kind of mirror that has only nine sides in the imperial palace that was recently rumored in the capital?"

"It should be. We have seen this bronze mirror before. It is not very bright, nor is it so clear. How much does this mirror cost?"

"Who knows, I've heard that a bronze mirror of this size costs tens of ounces of silver, and such a clear mirror probably costs at least a hundred taels of silver."

Li Yuanwai spent a thousand taels of silver to buy this mirror, and also put this mirror in the most conspicuous position, at the front of the dowry pretend.

The dressing table made of mahogany itself is very fine in workmanship, and the design is also very novel. In addition, the mirror is the most eye-catching, and it is deeply remembered by everyone at once.

The capital city is said to be very large, but it is also small. Anything that happens will spread throughout the capital city in a very short period of time.

Li Yuan's family married his daughter to a brand new dressing table with a clear and smooth side, and the news that there are only nine mirrors in the palace spread all over the capital.

All of a sudden, the Zhang Mansion of Zhang Shaoqing, Li Yuan's in-laws, was broken down by countless people, and all the people who came were wives and young ladies from various mansions in the capital.

In the Zhang Mansion, in the room of Li Xiaomei, Li Yuanwai's daughter, a group of famous ladies gathered around and chatted non-stop at the dressing table.

"This mirror is really clear. This kind of makeup requires such a dressing table."

"Isn't it? I'm so envious. The bronze mirror at home is getting more and more difficult to handle."

"Sister Li, why don't you pass your dressing table to me?"

"Sister, this is not acceptable. This is my dowry. If there are other things, I will give them to you without my sister asking."

"That's right, it's difficult for me, but I really like this dressing table and this mirror so much, I dropped the bronze mirror at home yesterday, it's really bad, I can't see clearly at all. "

"Sister, how much money did you spend on this dressing table? Where did you buy it?"

"I heard from my father that this dressing table cost a thousand taels of silver, and I asked someone to buy it."

"Sister, can you ask your father to find someone to ask again, the amount of money is not a problem, I just want to buy a dressing table like this."

"Okay, I'll excuse myself later, but these mirrors are rare and rare, and I don't dare to say that I will definitely be able to buy them."

Li Xiaomei now feels that she has a lot of face, because everyone who sees this dressing table and this mirror can't help but love it and want to buy one, but there is nowhere to buy it in the whole capital.

Listening to the admiration and envious tone of the people around her, her vanity was also greatly satisfied, and because of this mirror, there have been a lot more important people visiting the house recently, so her father-in-law and husband also praised her very much .

Soon, a gust of mirrors blew up the entire capital.

This big family must have a mirror that can be used to marry a daughter, preferably the round mirror that goes with the dressing table, and of course it is best to have a full-length mirror to match it.

This is not a big family without a mirror, and they can't do anything at all. When they marry their daughters, they can only sneak around and act like thieves, and dare not open their doors to do things.

The mirror has become a part of the dowry, and it is still necessary to have now. It is used as a front, and it must not be missing, especially for those big families, which are related to the front.

The wives and ladies in the capital must also have a mirror, because the empress dowagers and empresses in the palace all have full-length mirrors. Only by looking in the mirror every day can they know that they are more beautiful today than yesterday.

Everyone talked about mirrors the most, and the places they visited the most were those homes with mirrors. Surrounding the mirrors, all the ladies and ladies in the capital were going crazy.

Without this thing, I feel that I am eliminated and outdated, unable to keep up with other people, and more importantly, it seems that my family is not good, has no class, and is a small family.

As for the old bronze mirrors, now everyone thinks they are extremely ugly when they see them, and they simply can't take them out, and they are too embarrassed to take them out, for fear of being laughed at.

All of a sudden, in the entire capital city, Luoyang paper was expensive.

Every day people are asking where to buy mirrors, and the price is not a problem. As long as you have the goods, you can set the price whatever you want. From time to time, a mirror appears in the world, and it will immediately cause a lot of rush. It is really hard to find a mirror.

It's not just that there are people in the capital who are constantly asking for mirrors with a lot of money, and some people are constantly looting mirrors. As the news continues to spread, more and more people know about this magical mirror, and many foreign businessmen have also started to buy mirrors. The butterfly effect appeared, and everything here in the capital of Daming was the wind direction indicator of the entire Daming.

The popularity of mirrors here in the capital will soon lead to a crazy demand for mirrors throughout Daming.
