Marriage Princess: The Alluring Concubine of the Evil Emperor

Chapter 300 Buying a Sword
The two walked out without taking anyone with them.

Qinghe pretended to be a servant, and Chu Jinyu didn't dress expensively, just dressed like an ordinary rich man.

The center of the capital is prosperous, and there are many shops. Because of the trade with countries in the Southern Chu and Western Regions, there are also a lot of foreign goods flowing into the center of the capital, which is extremely prosperous.

In addition to the shops, there are also many stalls. Most of the stalls are gadgets, and there are also antiques. Of course, most of the antiques in these stalls are fake. Occasionally, one or two genuine items can be found, but this Gotta say luck and eyesight.

Qinghe used to like to hang out at this kind of street stall the most. When she was in high school, she would follow her mother to set up a stall during the summer vacation. The stall next door sold antiques. Of course, like the ones now, most of them are fake.

"Do you know how to see through the three lives of people? I heard that you have this ability." Qinghe asked.

Chu Jinyu said: "Yes, I can clearly see a person's past life, present life, and future life."

"My previous life, can you see clearly?" Qinghe asked.

Chu Jinyu thought for a while, "If you mean Princess Qinghe, then I can see clearly, but I know not."

Qinghe smiled and said, "Why not? I was indeed the princess of Qinghe in my previous life."

"Let me tell you this, what I have seen in people's previous lives is a road with various ups and downs, uphill or downhill, thorns or flat, but no matter how rough it is, it is still a road. And my Seeing your previous life, there are two roads, one of which is flat, and the other is blurry, like you, there is Yun Fei."

Qinghe smiled without saying a word.

Chu Jinyu asked, "You know why this happened, don't you?"

Qinghe showed his white teeth, "Guess!"

"I don't guess, I probably know the reason, but I'm not sure." Chu Jinyu said.

"What's the reason? Tell me about it, right?" Qinghe didn't believe that he was so powerful.

Chu Jinyu shook his head, "Don't say, anyway, since the other road is vague, then the explanation is not important, or it has stopped."

Qinghe smiled, "Well, that's what happened."

She walked to the antique booth and squatted down, picked up an ancient sword, and carefully looked at the delicate patterns on the hilt.

The stall owner enthusiastically introduced, "My little brother, you really know what to do. This is a sword from the Jin Dynasty, which was once used by Prince Qi Sun of the Jin Dynasty."

Qinghe smiled, "Well, yes, how much money?"

"I sell it for three liang of silver, but if you want it, you can take it for one liang of silver, and you have the right to make friends." The stall owner said generously.

Qinghe said: "One coin!"

The stall owner waved his hand, "No, it's a loss, it's a loss, and it's two taels of silver when I get it back. I saw that you know the goods, so I sold it to you at a loss. One tael, it can't be lower."

Qinghe put down his sword and said: "Forget it, it's too expensive, I can't afford it!"

The stall owner hurriedly said: "My little brother, expensive is also valuable. You can sell this sword and sell it. It is definitely not a problem to earn three or five or seven taels. Why don't you see, give more, five Take five silver coins, take five silver coins, and I will treat it as a friend."

Chu Jinyu didn't know anything about antiques, so seeing that Qinghe seemed to like them very much, he said, "I'll give it to you."

Qinghe shook his head, "No, it's only worth one penny."

Chu Jinyu looked at the sword, which was yellow in color and seemed to be made of brass, "This is a copper scabbard, it's worth it."

He picked it up and pulled out the sword. The blade was not black like ordinary iron, but rather silvery white. He couldn't help but be slightly startled, "Stainless steel? Did the Jin Dynasty have refined steel?"

Qinghe laughed loudly, and pushed him with his elbow, "What are you talking about for nothing?"

The stall owner smiled a little embarrassedly, "Is it stainless steel? Oh, I didn't look carefully, I was deceived."

Then, with a big hand push, "Okay, a denarius is a denarii, take it, take it!"

Qinghe looked at him, "Give me the money, I don't have my purse."

Chu Jinyu smiled, "Come out to go shopping together, and I'm the one in charge of giving the money."

"Honored?"

"It's a great honor!" He sighed, took out his purse cooperatively, and threw a penny to the stall owner, "Go on."

The stall owner asked: "Is there anything else you want? Let's see again? I'll give you a cheaper price."

Qinghe said: "I only have my eyes on this sword, and I will come to find good things in the future."

The stall owner said: "Okay, you two, go slowly!"

The two of them left the stall owner and walked along the street, surrounded by hawkers, very lively.

Chu Jinyu handed the sword to Qinghe, "What do you buy a sword for?"

Qinghe said: "For you."

Chu Jinyu snorted, "I paid for something, and then you gave it to me? Why does it sound so awkward?"

Qinghe snatched it back with a smile, "You don't want it, do you? Don't give it back to me."

Chu Jinyu snatched it away, "What was given to me is mine, there is no reason to go back."

"Don't you hate it? Don't ask for it if you hate it." Qinghe snatched it again.

"Go, go, I paid for the dislike, but is this sword worth a penny? The streets are full of fine steel swords, and you can buy three or four for a penny." Chu Jinyu said.

The sword-making technology of the Liang Kingdom is relatively advanced. The sword-making technology brought back from the Yuezhi Kingdom in the early years has been widely used in military transformation. Therefore, swords made of fine steel are all over the street. It is no different from before. Iron is used to forge swords.

Qinghe pulled out his sword and asked, "Did you bring a dagger?"

"Bring it!" Chu Jinyu took out the dagger and handed it to her, "What do you want the dagger for?"

Qinghe found a place to squat down, and scraped the surface of the blade with the dagger. After scraping, a layer of white plating was scraped, and the inside was black.

"Eh?" Chu Jinyu asked in surprise, "Black?"

"This is a black iron sword. Of course, it's not pure black iron, but it's also valuable, and you can't buy it for a penny." Qinghe laughed.

"How did you see that?" Chu Jinyu asked.

"The weight, whether it is iron or fine steel, does not have such a weight. Of course, I am not sure. It can only be a gamble."

"Do you have research on weapons?" Chu Jinyu asked.

"I used to go out with Yuan Su, so I must have a preliminary understanding and familiarity with weapons." Qinghe said plainly.

Chu Jinyu saw that she had such a unique vision, which showed that she was really good at it, not some preliminary understanding and familiarity.

He said: "Okay, this sword is mine now, thank you for giving it to me, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be able to buy the Xuantie Sword for a penny."

"This is not a good sword. If it is made of pure black iron, it will be heavier." Qinghe said.

Chu Jinyu held it in his hand, "It's okay, for those with high martial arts skills, weapons are only auxiliary."

Qinghe raised his eyebrows, "Listen to you, your martial arts are very strong?"

"How can a dude like me know any martial arts?" Chu Jinyu changed the subject, pointing to the front, "There is a stall, sit down and eat."
