Therefore, this time Yun wanted to invite Miss Gong Yu to be a spokesperson, that is, to wear these pearl jewelry in front of people to promote the pearls.
There is no other intention!"
"Oh?"
Gong Yu's beautiful eyes moved, and a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes.
Freshwater pearls from Liaodong?
Moreover, with so many beads of uniform size, it would be necessary to pick out the hundred with the closest diameters from tens of thousands of pearls. This shows that pearls in Liaodong are no rarer than those in the south.
As for wearing pearls in public?
But it's just a trivial matter, not to mention these top-quality pearls that shine in colorful colors under the light.
For a moment, a thrilling smile appeared on Gong Yu's beautiful and elegant face. She bowed and thanked the distinguished guest for the reward.
Since it was a deal, Gong Yu had no intention of refusing.
Even the dignitaries seemed to have seen Ziwu's brilliant plan and showed a hint of anticipation.
I didn't expect that this businessman named Yun would use such means. With Gong Yu doing the promotion, Dongzhu will definitely sell well this time.
The celebrity effect and the blessing of beauty!
These already gorgeous oriental pearls will inevitably become best-sellers in a short period of time and will be in great demand.
"It's a pity that Yun's status is low. If Miss Gong Yu's piano skills were appreciated by His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, they would be worth more than just a hundred oriental pearls!"
The words of the businessman surnamed Yun made the eyes of the dignitaries light up.
Yes, if they gave the stunning beauty before them to some young prince, could they become like Lu Buwei who made the most of the rare treasure?
Liaodong is bitterly cold, and although it has become increasingly prosperous in recent years, there are no extraordinary women there.
As for the Silla maids?
Most of them are daughters of small countries with low status and have no chance to learn the skills of playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Compared with the skinny horses of Jiangnan, they are completely different.
“Gong Yu thanks the distinguished guest for his appreciation.
"His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan is worth a ton of gold, how can a lowly person like Gong Yu expect to be like him?"
Gong Yu is the most famous courtesan in Jiangnan, but she is also a conceited and arrogant person.
Although the deeds of His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan were circulated in the streets, in Gong Yu's eyes, he was just a prince with some talent in martial arts, and was ultimately just an ordinary man.
What's more, this time the King of Yan was only on a diplomatic mission to Daliang and would not stay for long, so there would not be much interaction between them.
She still has a great revenge to take.
"Pity!"
The merchant surnamed Yun had a pair of sharp eyes, and he saw through Gong Yu's thoughts at a glance. He sighed and shook his head.
Based on his understanding of King Yan, he was definitely not a ruthless person.
If Gong Yu followed someone, even if she had no status, she would not treat him badly. Moreover, Gong Yu was a good musician, not just a beauty.
In contrast, although Qingguan women sold their art but not their bodies, their lowly status ultimately doomed them to a tragic and unfortunate fate.
"But Gong Yu still has some doubts in his mind. Is His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan really a swordsman?"
Sword Immortal?
That is an existence at the peak level of Jiuzhou. To ordinary people, it is a legendary existence.
Li Shouxi was the King of Yan of the Tang Dynasty, who was famous throughout the Nine Provinces. They had never heard of any talent in swordsmanship from Li Shouxi. He had always been the Flying General of Longmen who guarded the north and inspected the troops on the battlefield.
"Haha, Miss Gong Yu's question is indeed what we saw with our own eyes!
Even though we mortals cannot distinguish true immortals with our eyes and ears, there are many seventh- and eighth-rank masters among the caravan guards, so they can't make a mistake.
Moreover, your highness's sword was accompanied by the shadow of a divine dragon, and the sword hummed and roared like a dragon, making him the king of swords."
The king of swords?
This title is not just an evaluation, but also an exaggeration.
This was also a version that no one had heard before. Even Gong Yu's beautiful eyes lit up with a gleam of light.
These businessmen may not be proficient in martial arts, but what about their guards?
Even the seventh and eighth rank masters believed that Li Shouxi was a sword immortal, so there were basically no surprises.
Moreover, he is the king of swords, which shows how highly these businessmen think of Li Shouxi.
Li Shouxi should take the sword of kingly way!
"By the way, has Miss Gong Yu ever used ambergris?"
“Ambergris?
How could Gong Yu be so lucky to have such precious spices? Why is the distinguished guest so suspicious? "
Gong Yu's bright eyes flickered with affection, and she felt that the other party was not well-intentioned.
Although ambergris is precious in the market, it is not rare for Gong Yu. However, the sudden question from the merchant surnamed Yun should be a test with some purpose.
“Miss Gong Yu, since you know that His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan once fought a giant Kun in the sea.
Then it should be understood that before the sea monster fell into the abyss, most of its materials were dismembered and brought to the ship, including ambergris. "
"Ambergris?! It's related to fish monsters?"
For a moment, all the dignitaries and prostitutes in Miaoyinfang looked at the merchant named Yun.
Because the dignitaries and even many prostitutes here have used ambergris, it is a symbol of status and luxury.
After all, ambergris is a tribute to the royal family!
The ambergris circulating in the market is several times more precious than the same mass of gold. I didn't expect that ambergris would be related to fish monsters, which was something I had never heard of before.
But it also explains the mysterious origin of ambergris.
“Miss Gong Yu may not believe it, but ambergris is actually the reincarnation of the five grains of the fish monster.
Now on the deck of the Jiaolong boat, there is the fish monster's freshly dried excrement. After identification by the master, it is the prototype of ambergris. As long as it is washed and drifted on the sea for a period of time, the quality will be improved. "
hiss hiss hiss...
vomit!
Immediately afterwards, many dignitaries vomited directly because the incense they were wearing at the time was ambergris.
The capital of showing off that I was once proud of suddenly became a joke.
After all, this is the excrement of a fish monster. Even if it is very valuable, it cannot erase the essence of things. How can they not be angry and embarrassed?
If it's fake, it's fine. If it's real...
From then on, they became sworn enemies with ambergris.
Chapter 17: The Name of the Sword Emperor and the Thoughts of the Phoenix
The Miaoyinfang incident was just a minor episode before the martial arts competition to win a bride, but its impact was enormous.
Such as Li Shouxi's title of Sword Emperor!
The King of Swords.
It was a perfect match for Li Shouxi's royal status, so the name of Sword Emperor quickly spread throughout Jiangnan.
One is to celebrate the birth of a sword immortal, and the other is to build momentum for Li Shouxi.
The title of Sword Immortal is more inspiring than the ordinary Vajra Realm and Finger Profound Realm, and he is also a sword emperor.
However, what awaits Li Shouxi next is the challenge from countless kendo masters.
Especially with the title of Sword Emperor, those sword masters in the royal family would never tolerate Li Shouxi being above them, and they would surely come to challenge him.
This is not what Li Shouxi wants to see.
But the reputation had already spread, and it was too late for Li Shouxi to stop it.
This was also Langya Pavilion's counterattack against Li Shouxi. Li Shouxi revealed the secret of Langya Pavilion. Similarly, Langya Pavilion also brought endless troubles to Li Shouxi.
Sword Immortal! Sword Emperor!
It's definitely trouble within trouble.
In addition, there is the origin of ambergris.
The next day, a piece of freshly solidified ambergris was sent to the Daliang Palace.
After the authoritative appraisal by the Imperial Medical Bureau, the final result made King Wu of Liang almost vomit blood. He did not expect that the ambergris he had used for so long was actually the excrement of a fish monster.
As a result, ambergris was removed from the mandatory tribute to the royal family, and its price on the market plummeted.
On the contrary, the prices of agarwood and musk have skyrocketed!
This made the merchants selling musk grin from ear to ear.
Of course, they also kept in mind Li Shouxi's instructions and bought ambergris at the lowest price.
The reason is very sufficient, the barbarians do not despise the ambergris.
However, as time passed, everyone quickly got the topic back on track -
Martial arts competition to win a bride!
More and more masters and warriors from the surrounding countries gathered here, all determined to capture Princess Nihuang.
Princess Nihuang is not only a famous beauty on the Langya List, but also a martial arts master of the quasi-ninth rank, in charge of 100,000 cavalry in the southern border of Daliang.
If he marries Princess Nihuang, it will be a great success for the whole family.
Therefore, the masters from the neighboring countries around Daliang are all gearing up to fight it out.
However, their biggest competitor this time is the Tang Dynasty.
In the past, the Tang Dynasty had not received an invitation, and the two countries were tens of thousands of miles apart, separated by a great fortress. The Tang Dynasty would not take a mere female general from Daliang seriously.
But now Li Shouxi was on a diplomatic mission to Daliang. How could a mere Princess Nihuang stop the two great death gods on the battlefield?
"Sister, I heard that two top masters came to the Tang Dynasty this time, and even you may not be their opponent."
“It’s the disparity in power!
Whether it is the leader of the Black Armored Cavalry or Yuwen Chengdu, they are all fierce generals who followed His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan to travel across the desert. In terms of strength alone, even the great commander Meng Zhi may not be their opponent. "
Inside Prince Mu’s mansion, Princess Nihuang and the young Prince Mu were chatting about the candidate for the martial arts competition to win his hand in marriage.
Princess Nihuang is also extremely cautious when it comes to her happiness in the second half of her life.
Princess Nihuang didn't take the masters from the surrounding countries seriously. Because with her quasi-ninth-rank strength, other than the top ten masters on the Langya List, the others posed no threat to her.
But unexpectedly, the Tang Dynasty suddenly sent the Prince of Yan to Daliang as an envoy.
In this case, she might not be able to escape this time.
After all, King Liang was wary of her, so how could he miss this opportunity to marry her to the powerful Tang Empire?
"So powerful? I heard they have a good family background, how about..."
Little King Mu looked at his sister cautiously.
Over the years, it has been Princess Nihuang who has supported the rise and fall of Prince Mu's Mansion. She has slowly survived to the age of primeval age, even older than most leftover women.
Therefore, he also hoped that Princess Nihuang would find her home as soon as possible, otherwise if she delayed any further, she would really not be able to get married.
"What did you say, you bastard?"
Princess Nihuang's hands were as fast as lightning. She grabbed little Prince Mu's ears and spun him 360 degrees. Little Prince Mu screamed in pain.
“It hurts! It hurts! It hurts… Sister, please spare my life…”
"What? Are you disgusted with your elder sister now?"
Nihuang rolled her eyes in annoyance. The young Prince Mu couldn't help but sigh at the charm mixed with his heroic spirit.
Elder sister is like mother!
For the sake of Prince Mu's Mansion, Princess Nihuang never got married and wasted more than ten years.
Now that two well-matched candidates have finally appeared, and there is even a chance to get away from the quagmire of Daliang, Prince Mu does not want Princess Nihuang to give up this opportunity.
