Chapter 415 Visiting the Capital (4)
"Pfft!" Xiao Wu listened to their conversation through the car curtain, and the more he listened, the more interesting he felt, and he couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud.

The two sisters spoke in the same tune. Poor Xiao Mulang was indoctrinated by these two people all day long, and he didn't know what he would be like when he grew up.

There is a lantern festival today, and many shops on the street have hung lanterns, but they haven't been lit yet, they won't be lit until evening.This will hang, is to attract customers.

Many lantern designs are very ingenious, some resemble flowers, some resemble animals, some imitate antiques, and some imitate buildings.

The whole street is hung with lanterns, which is really beautiful from a distance.Cai Yun was so curious about it that she didn't want to put down the curtains along the way.Mu Lang is only interested in animal-shaped lanterns, which he finds fun.

Not long after, I turned across the main street, passed a big archway, and arrived at the largest and most prosperous flower market in the capital.

Businessmen here also have to know how to use greenhouses to cultivate flowers in four seasons, but this kind of flowers are difficult to grow, so there are not many shops that build greenhouses.

After entering the flower market, everyone got out of the carriage, and Da Fei drove the carriage, following them unhurriedly.

Xiao Wu also felt fresh when he came here, because they hardly ever bought flowers and potted plants in Prince Xiang's Mansion, and the boss here didn't recognize them either.

There is a huge difference between knowing and not knowing.

Because the merchants here often deal with high-ranking officials, their eyes are high. Seeing that they are dressed in ordinary clothes, they don’t pay attention to them at all. They only let the waiters greet them. not on.

Mu Xiang didn't care, she only looked at the flowers, and she didn't come here just to see their faces, no matter what his attitude was, she would deal with them later when she had a chance.

She doesn't care, but Xiao Wu does. Isn't this going to bring down the face of Prince Xiang's Mansion?
"Ma'am, I'll tell them your identity, let's see if they dare to neglect you!"

Mu Xiang ignored him, thinking, if He An followed her, she would definitely not talk so much nonsense.

Seeing his wife, Xiao Wu didn't speak, just looked at the flowers, very puzzled.

Isn't face important?

Finally, Mu Xiang stopped at the door of a very ordinary and not very big flower shop.

There are two pots of plum blossom roots at the door of this shop, the shape is very beautiful, people say that when looking at plum blossoms, you need to look at the plum bones, and this bone refers to plum blossoms.It needs to be imposing, graceful and graceful, like a dignified woman, with an elegant and tall demeanor.

The two pots of blooming red plums in front of me give people this feeling.

In addition to plum blossoms, there are also quite a few crabapple flowers with roots wrapped in straw, which is very different from the top-quality blue and white porcelain in the shop next to it.Here, the begonia leaves are still stained with dew, the unopened petals are delicate and beautiful, and the roots of the flower buds are also very healthy, without any blackened sickness.

Seeing that she was standing still, Xiao Wu called the boss into the shop, "A visitor, where's your boss? Hurry up and say hello to our wife!"

"Hey, here we come, what are the customers looking for?" A simple and honest middle-aged man wearing an apron ran out of the store, and he seemed to be willing to work hard and endure hardships.

Seeing his attire, Xiao Wu thought he was a buddy, "Ask your boss to come out, my wife likes the flowers here, if the price is right, she will buy a lot, what can I do with a buddy like you."

The middle-aged man smiled shyly, "I am the owner of this store. If you don't believe me, you can ask the people around you. Really, I won't lie to you. This store was passed down by my father. I am a stupid person. I can only work, and I don’t know how to bargain with others, but the flowers here are all dug in the morning, if you don’t believe me, you can take a look at this flower root.”

"You really don't look like a boss," Xiao Wu shook his head after looking at it.

Mu Xiang pulled him away, pointed to the two pots of plum blossoms, and asked, "Did you prune these two pots? How many pots of plum blossoms like this do you have? How much can you sell each pot to us?"

After asking three questions at once, the middle-aged man scratched his head for a while before answering slowly, "I pruned it, not only these two pots, but there are more than a dozen pots of plum blossoms in my backyard, all cut by myself. I don’t know what it means to look good, it’s just cut blindly, as for the price, I’m sure I won’t sell you expensive ones, don’t worry about that, but it can’t be lower than other prices, or they won’t be happy.”

As he spoke, he looked towards the street.

Mu Xiang glanced at it from the corner of her eye, and sure enough, she saw people from the shops next door all rolling their sleeves and looking at him.

Mu Xiang nodded knowingly, "Then take me to the backyard to have a look. I want the two pots outside. Let's go in and negotiate the price. Also, I want those crabapple trees too. You have wild roses or roses here. flowers?"

"Ma'am, why do you want wild roses and Chinese roses? Few people in the capital grow these two kinds of flowers. People like to grow peonies, rich and noble flowers, and they are magnificent." He led the way in front, and he told the truth.

"Wealth does not depend on flowers to show off. Although peonies are good, they are not easy to live. Rose flowers are beautiful in shape and roses are very fragrant. As long as they are well pruned, they can grow elegantly. Do you believe it?"

"Hehe, I believe that Madam's words have reached my heart. In fact, I don't like peonies at all. I can't be careless at all. Madam, there are still yellow plums here. There are really a few roses. If you want, I will Here it is for you, no money required."

Mu Xiang took a look around, ordered a few pots of yellow plums, and picked two pots of red plums, one of which was azalea. This flower blooms in spring, and it is also very beautiful.

The two pots of red plums outside are naturally necessary. After all this is calculated, it is definitely a big deal.

The middle-aged man was overjoyed, so he quickly took notes on a piece of paper, and took the abacus beads to do the math. After calculating, the total was 22 taels.

Only those few pots of plum blossoms are the most expensive, and all the others are fine.

Xiaowu is not expensive, so there is no squeak.

Mu Xiang didn't even look at his account, and directly bargained, "Let's take off the odds, 20 taels, and make up a whole number."

"This..." Two, two, five dollars is not a small amount for ordinary people!

Seeing that he still didn't want to agree, Xiao Wu was unhappy, "Do you know who our wife is? Do you know where these flowers are going to be sent? Prince Xiang's Mansion, do you think these two taels of silver are not worth it?" ?”
