Xuanbao Pavilion.
Yangzhou city''s largest treasure trading attic, like the Hu Yue tower in the imperial city at first, has a reputation throughout the country.
The chariots and horses stopped steadily at the gate of Xuanbao Pavilion. The pearly middle-aged man led more than 20 managers of all sizes to meet them.
"Mr. assassin, the shop is magnificent."
Respectfully and humbly, the steward of the Pavilion behind him bowed in turn.
Yangzhou governor came forward to hold the middle-aged man''s arm and said with a smile.
"Shopkeeper Hu, you''re welcome!"
Between the words, he took the hand of the man surnamed Hu and walked towards the carriage behind him.
"Come on, today I''d like to introduce an official of the imperial city."
Inadvertently, Yang Ming, the governor of Yangzhou, leaned close to the man surnamed Hu.
"This is a second-class senior official. He lives in the Marquis, but he has a great reputation in the court hall, no less than the Duke of the country."
Between the words, Tang Hao walked out slowly from the opened curtain, stepped on the stone floor and looked at the two people coming face to face.
The middle-aged man beside Yang Ming is meticulously combed in a bun and wears gold and jade, but he is not flashy. Under the thick eyebrows and big eyes, a national character face seemed full of righteousness.
"Cao min Hu Yue met Lord Tang."
"I''ve heard a lot about young master Tang. I''m glad to meet you today. Nice to meet you."
It was the same bow and salute, the same polite words, which could be said from the mouth of the middle-aged man, but it was neither humble nor arrogant, and there was no flattery at all.
Waving slightly, Tang Hao said.
"Shopkeeper Hu, don''t worry."
"These treasures need to be put aside in your store this time. I hope shopkeeper Hu can bear more."
Hu Yue straightened up and said with a loud smile.
"That''s nature."
"It''s just that babies who enter our store have a rule. They can enter the store only after they are handed over to the craftsman for inspection and pasted with a special signature code."
"I hope Lord Tang will forgive me."
As soon as the voice fell, Yang Ming hurriedly pulled Hu Yue''s skirt with an impatient face.
Tang Hao''s identity has been disclosed before, so that Hu Yue won''t make any mistakes.
But at this time, this elm pimple shopkeeper would hurt his face if he wanted to make such a scene?
But the middle-aged man beside him was unmoved. His kind eyes still stared at Tang Hao and bowed slightly.
Tang Hao was slightly stunned, turned to laugh and patted Hu Yue on the arm.
"Not bad! There should be rules or rules."
"Even so, shopkeeper Hu might as well send some people to identify and check."
Hu Yue''s posture was slightly lower, and the previous uneasiness on her face dissipated.
"Please move to the cold house and have a rest."
"In half an hour, I will sign the code and give it to you. Please."
As soon as the voice fell, several people came out of the team that had just met and began to carry the wooden boxes on the carriage. Some boys took the reins and settled the horses.
Hu Yue introduced Tang Hao to the hall.
Green tiles and Zhu eaves are magnificent and magnificent. Two pairs of auspicious animals are carved at the two corners of the eaves. They are vivid and vivid.
Four large vermilion paint columns support the resplendent roof, and the vivid Xuanbao pavilion has three characters of dragons and phoenixes flying, adding a bit of scholarly flavor to the ancient luxury.
Stepping into the hall and passing through the front hall, Tang Hao just knew that there was a unique cave here.
Through the zigzag corridor, there are strange grass and fairy vines on both sides, less vines and vines, and short legged Cangsong dotted the strange stone pool hall in the courtyard. A clear stream flows through the stone gap and the green grass.
Seeing the pleasant scenery, Tang Hao smiled.
"Shopkeeper Hu''s courtyard is unique. The scenery is unique."
Hu Yue, who led the way, heard the speech, slowed down slightly and said with a smile.
"Lord Tang praised me falsely."
"This Xuanbao pavilion has dabbled in exotic flowers and plants, pearls and Jadeites, famous calligraphy and painting."
"The flowers and plants I saw were just for businessmen to look at and see the rarity."
Between words, we have come to the main hall.
Welcome guests from all over the world and enjoy the treasures of the four seas. Several large characters are prominently hung on the huge screen carved with peonies.
Turn the screen and wait for the real face of the living room to come into view.
Sandalwood is the beam, crystal jade, pearl curtain and fan gold column foundation.
The whole hall is divided into eight pavilions by sixteen red columns. Between the pavilions hung a mackerel gauze tent embroidered with beads and silver thread Du Dan. The wind blows the gauze and moves into the falling cloud mountain and the sea of illusion.
The Pearl curtain in front of the pavilion is separated, and six nanmu seats are placed next to the six foot aloes table, showing luxury.
Led by Hu Yue, Tang Hao and Yang Ming step on the white jade floor and slowly come to the table.
Hu Yue bowed and opened her right hand in a gesture of invitation.
"Lord Tang might as well have a rest here and let the grass people talk about some bidding matters."
Seeing Tang Hao seated, Hu Yue pulled the wind bell hanging on the wooden column.
Not long ago, a veiled woman slowly entered the pavilion with a Qin in her arms. After bowing and saluting, she walked into the pavilion. The sound of the Qin curled and filled the air.
The incense in the auspicious beast tripod stove is fragrant, elegant and pleasant. The music of the zither in the pavilion is like a mountain stream, and the stream is gurgling, which only makes the body and mind happy and comfortable.
Glancing at the interior of the hall, Tang Hao praised it.
"Xuanbao Pavilion is really rich and powerful. Even the Marquis house in the imperial city is ashamed of this luxury decoration."
With a smile on her face, Hu Yue picked up green tea from the silver plate held by her maid and poured a cup for Tang Hao and Yang Ming himself.
"Lord Tang is joking."
"This Xuanbao Pavilion is not a grass-roots family property, but built by the five families in the south of the Yangtze River."
"The Hu family, it''s just a big head."
