“Jingxuan, finally you are here, if you don’t come, I even want to go to Datong Town to look for you.”
The fat shopkeeper had come out from the counter earlier, with that round big face wearing a huge smile. Ling Jingxuan felt strange, “Why is that?”
Seemed like they had nothing to contact, right?
“Jingxuan, there is something you don’t know. Of those handbags you sold to us, hot sale! Those ma’am and misses like them very much. Some ask if we get some other designs. So I am thinking of asking you for some more designs, so we could make more.”
After taking them to that room they checked in last time, the fat shopkeeper said excitedly, For this thing, the general shopkeeper of the prefecture specially praised he him, in only 20 days, they had already earned so many times of that one hundred taels of silver they had spent.”
“Really?”
Playing with the small cup in front of him casually, Ling Jingxuan curved his lips evilly, “I told you last time that if you still want my designs, you got to cooperate with me. If you can have the final say, I can give you a few more new designs now.”
They eat meat, at least he should eat some soup, right? A losing bargain? One time was already enough.
“Well…”
The fat shopkeeper couldn’t help having a twitch at the corner of his mouth and then said helplessly, “Aren’t you talking nonsense. I also wish I could have the final say. But Jingxuan, I heard that Lord Six has been on the way to Cangzhou. I guess he’d arrive soon. If you really want to cooperate with Lord Six, my personal advice, you’d better prepare a few special designs. Lord Six has high taste. Ordinary things couldn’t reach his eyes at all.”
He took his whole jar of wine last time, so he would offer him some hearty advice.
“Hehe…You can rest assured. I can promise all the designs are unique. Today I am here for two things. First, I am getting married tomorrow, so I plan to choose two sets of suitable wedding dresses. So hope you can ask them to get me some to choose. I will give the detailed size. As for the second thing…”
Zeng Shaoqing’s coming was already within his expectation, so Ling Jingxuan didn’t feel surprised or what. While speaking, he felt out a drawing from the chest and offered it before him, “This is the ring I designed. Can you ask your craftsman to forge it for me? I want it to today.”
On the drawing was a pair of rings with a simple design, materials, jade. The rings themselves had no excellent places. Shopkeeper Zhang asked strangely, “What is this? So strange symbol. Would you like it engraved of the inner side?”
The fat finger pointed at the abbreviation YL inside the ring, in the middle was an arrow in through. The fat shopkeeper thought he was well-informed, but this was the first time he saw such strange symbol. Not only him, even Yan Shengrui had question marks all over the face, wondering what his Jingxuan was trying to do.
“Y is the first letter of his surname (Here should be the language thing, Imagine Y here represents’严’in Chinese and you’d understand.), and L is the first letter of my surname. The arrow in the middle represents that our love. In brief, he loves me and I love him. It’s just a pair of common jade rings, but they represent our love for each other, so they also have an auspicious name—wedding ring.”
Rarely in a good mood, Ling Jingxuan patiently explained it to them briefly.
“What are letters?”
The fast shopkeeper asked like an ignorant but studious kid, while Yan Shengrui on the side was quietly waiting for his answer. But this time Ling Jingxuan explained no more but only said weakly, “You won’t understand even if I explain it. Anyway, it’s a language from a far place. Shopkeeper Hong, I wonder if you can make them for me today.”
Just because he was in a hurry that he didn’t make it too complicated. If he had time, he would prefer a ring with gold inlaid with jade. After all, it was a wedding ring, something to wear for a lifetime, everyone wanted the best.
“No problem, we have ready-made ones like this, as long as the symbol is engraved on it. Anyway, the implied meaning of the ring is quite good. Aren’t you afraid I may sell the same style in my shop?”
They did business with those rich people, and the last thing those people lacked of was money. So as long as it got a good implied meaning, however much it cost, they wouldn’t even make a single frown.
“Hehe…Shopkeeper Hong, you forgot one thing. Everyone’s surname is different, so the letters they need are also different. Except me, I guess no one knows all the letters. I have no objection if you want to launch the same style, as long as you have the ability.”
For this, Ling Jingxuan was quite confident, for he was the only who had transmigrated from a modern world! Using cyber language, it should be I am a transmigrator so I am the boss!
“Haha…I was kidding, this is the unique symbol of your love. By the way, forgot to congratulate you guys. Wish you stay together forever and love for all seasons!”
The fat shopkeeper gave a big laugh while sending his best wishes. To be honest, he kind of quite liked Ling Jingxuan. Although sometimes he was quite aggravating, at least, he wasn’t so hypocritical like others.
“Thank you, Shopkeeper Hong, there is the size of the rings on the drawing, sorry to trouble you then. We still have to go to the county yemen to get the marriage certificate, and then come to try on clothes later.”
Speaking of which, Ling Jingxuan stood up with Yan Shengrui, the most important thing was waiting for them to do.
“No problem.”
Shopkeeper Hong personally sent them to the door, until watching them disappear did he go back in with the workers.
