nChapter 32

nThe fabric slowly unrolled . The shopkeepers eyes were fixated on it as the picture unfolded . Past the white patch on the fabric, there were mountains and valleys that looked ancient and elegant . Just one glance was enough to cause the viewer to stare at it in a daze . Especially at the very end of the picture, a small bit of red stood out from the rest . It was a red sun that rested high above everything else .

nThe shopkeeper sighed in admiration for a while . Then, he took a closer look and said, “It’s hard to imagine that a picture like this was actually sewn out bit by bit . ”

nMu Yunyao gave a slight smile and helped Yang Shi and Su Qing flip the fabric over .

nThe shopkeeper took one look, widened his eyes and completely froze on the spot . “This……this is……”

nMu Yunyao slowly folded up the fabric and kept it . She asked, “Shopkeeper, say, how much do you think this picture will cost?”

n“This……,” The shopkeeper took a while before he came back to his senses . Hearing her words, he became hesitant . From this embroidery piece, it was clear that this girl was rich in knowledge . If he gave a price that was too low, he was worried that she would immediately leave . After all, he needed to send this picture to the Capital……

nWait a moment . The shopkeeper quickly raised his head and looked at Mu Yunyao with a cold gaze . “Miss Mu is clearly very well informed of my intentions . ”

nThe back of this mountains and rivers picture was actually a picture of dragons and phoenixes! There can only be one person who can own this picture, and that is the current Emperor!

nHow was a mere villager girl able to know that he wanted to send this picture to the Capital as a birthday gift for the Emperor? Was everything before about being filial to her Father just an act?

n“Initially, I was not aware about it . However, someone came up to my door and asked to buy my art piece . Since I had already made a deal with shopkeeper, I naturally rejected that person . That person said a few sentences and I somehow made a guess……I wanted to thank shopkeeper for putting so much trust in me, so I made this double sided embroidery piece . I wonder if this was not right of me?” Mu Yunyao said, a slightly nervous and excited light appeared in her eyes .

nThe shopkeeper’s suspicion did not lessen the slightest bit . “Who met you?”

n“I’m not too sure, but when they left, someone called that person ‘Boss Tan’ . ”

nTan? The only person with the surname Tan, and also keeps track of all of his actions, is his old rival Colour Moon Shop!

nNo wonder, that must be why the shopkeeper of Colour Moon Shop was acting all strange these few days, he had also started to aim for this lady’s embroidery piece!

nFor a split second, the shopkeeper’s face was covered in fury . But, he quickly recovered and said, “Miss Mu, this embroidery piece of yours, is this price acceptable?” A picture like this was enough to put a person in a trance, he definitely had to buy it! There were even more powerful people in Colour Moon Shop, if they get to this art piece first, he would be in trouble . As he said this, he reached out with one finger .

nMu Yunyao inwardly laughed . She had already threw out Shopkeeper Tan’s name, yet this shopkeeper is still trying to test her . If he’s being like this, then he can’t blame her for taking a big bite . “10 000 silvers? Shopkeeper is such an honest man . ”

n(T

/N: 10 000 is 一萬, aka 1 萬 . 萬 is equivalent to 10 000 . )

nHe shopkeeper choked, 10 000 silvers, this girl was not even ashamed of saying that out loud . “Miss Mu, this embroidery piece is below the Heavens, how can it cost 10 000 silvers per piece?”

n“That shopkeeper Tan said that this art piece is priceless . ”

n“Lady, I am willing to give 1000 silvers……”

nMu Yunyao immediately stood up . “Shopkeeper, tell me how much is all the thread and cloths, I will give it to you . This picture is not for sale . ”

n“Ah, Lady, we can further discuss the price, please sit down,” The shopkeeper immediately tried to appease her .
