However, after raising the little eagle for a while, he found himself increasingly fond of it.
or rather he had developed a bond with it and gradually realized its extraordinary nature.
Picking up the small ceramic jar on the tray which contained small pieces of chopped meat, there was no doubt that this was the food for his little eagle.
Using chopsticks, he picked up a piece of raw meat, disregarding what the little eagle was doing, and tossed it into the air.
At that moment, Lajia only heard the sound of wings spreading, and a shadow quickly swept past.
When he came to his senses, his little eagle was already back on the eagle perch, tilting its small head and happily eating the piece of raw meat it had caught in its beak.
The little eagle, which had struggled to flap its wings not long ago, had now grown to this extent.
No matter how many times one looked at it, this scene always left Luaji's guards and Lu Yi, who brought in lunch, dumbfounded.
For this reason, Luajia named his pure black little eagle shadow of the plunderer.
Chapter 309 Jade Artifacts.
When he first received Shadow of the Plunder, Lajia had specifically asked Burigid for tips on raising eagles.
And Burri's reply was to raise it casually, as it was a descendant of the divine eagles of the grasslands and should not be spoiled, otherwise it would lose its sharpness and become an ordinary bird.
Under this premise, Luaja indeed raised it quite casually.
After feeding it a few pieces of raw meat, he casually gestured for it to go out and stretch its wings.
As if it understood Luaj's words, Shadow of the Plunderer spread its wings, let out a loud eagle cry, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"What do you think Shadow of the Plunderer will catch today?" Luagia asked with interest to the guard standing beside him after its wings had grown robust.
Shadow of the Plunderer had been frequently bringing back prey recently, and what it would catch each time had become one of Loajia's expectations.
After chatting with the guard and finishing lunch, Lajia took a short nap.
When he woke up in the afternoon, he continued to handle official business.
At this time, spread out in front of him was the wealth confiscated from the residences of those great nobles after they were sealed off.
The amount was surprisingly astonishing, making Luajia sigh with emotion.
Your Majesty, the head of the printing house, Sun Sha, requests an audience.
Let him in.
While speaking, a plain-l lookinging young man quickly walked in.
Your humble servant, Sun Sha, pays respect to your majesty.
Get up.
As Laja spoke, his gaze was focused on the item in Sun Shan's hand.
Son Shan, is that a printed book you are holding? Replying to your majesty, this book in my hand is indeed printed according to your majesty's wishes.
President here.
After commanding the guard beside him to hand the book to him, Laja quickly flipped through a few pages and clearly showed a satisfied expression on his face.
Well done.
I am very satisfied.
Use this as a standard to print a thousand copies first.
Additionally, for the achievement of the printing house head, Sun Shawn, a reward of 10 strings of cash.
The salaries of the other employees will be doubled this month.
You may go and receive your rewards.
Sunsh was overjoyed upon hearing this.
quickly bowed and thanked him.
Your humble servant thanks your majesty for the reward.
I take my leave.
After son Shawn left, Lu G flipped through the book in his hand and remarked that there were certainly flaws, many even from the perspective of a modern person.
From the quality of the paper to the printing technology, if Lu G really wanted to nitpick, he could point out a whole bunch of issues.
However, one cannot use the quality standards of a modern book to demand the same level of quality from an ancient book.
Such a person would either be a contrarian or have a problem with their thinking.
After briefly flipping through the book and confirming that the content and text were not printed incorrectly, Lu G set aside and continued reviewing the remaining reports on the table.
As evening approached, he heard a notification sound in his mind indicating that he had received a message.
When Lu Gi opened it, it was a message from Yiqing Shien.
I've already had someone prepare a batch of jade artifacts and ornaments for you.
A total of 31 pieces.
That should be enough for now, right? As a professional merchant, Eching Schwan's business acumen was clearly much sharper than Luogs.
Jade artifacts were indeed considered top tier luxury items in ancient times, and a good piece of jade could be worth a fortune.
In other words, very few people could afford them.
In her view, even if the people in Luog civilization were extremely wealthy with no place to spend their money, 31 pieces made from quality jade would be enough for him to sell for several months.
Maybe.
To be honest, Lu Gi was unsure whether jade artifacts and ornaments could become popular in his civilization, so he couldn't say for certain.
In any case, he decided to proceed with the transaction.
Sensing Luis uncertainty Ying Shian sent another message while arranging the trade for the jade artifacts and ornaments.
If you want the jade artifacts to sell, well, it's quite simple.
What? Recently, Luog had been mentally exhausted and didn't want to think too much.
So, he directly asked Ein for clarification.
Promotional endorsements.
The black jade carp I gave you before.
Aren't you wearing clothes to you? Since you, your majesty, are wearing jade ornaments.
The generals and scholars under your command will likely take an interest in jade artifacts and ornaments as well.
Once they show interest, won't the business come knocking? So, that is how it is.
Although he was quite tired, Lu Gi was a modern person.
And after Ying Shian mentioned it, he immediately understood.
By the way, regarding pricing, I'm not very knowledgeable about jade.
What price range would be appropriate for this batch you've sent me? You first tell me the prices of some iconic products in your civilization.
Pricing needs to have a comparison to be determined.
In response, Lu Gi decisively sent back a list of prices.
After about 10 minutes, Ying Xian sent back 31 different quotes, with each jade artifact and ornament having a different price.
It was only when comparing the prices that Lu Gi noticed the 31 jade artifacts and ornaments Yiqing Shien traded to him were surprisingly diverse in style.
Just among the jade ornaments, there were pendants, bracelets, bangles, jade pendants, jade rings, and jade thumb rings.
While the jade artifacts included not only jade cups, and jade pots, but also jade ruy, jade tripods, jade mountains, jade horses, and various exquisitely crafted jade figurines, which left Lu G feeling somewhat dazzled.
After a lot of effort, he finally finished comparing the prices with the goal of promoting jade artifacts and ornaments.
Luog spent considerable time clearly outlining the benefits of wearing jade artifacts and ornaments, even creating individual descriptions for each piece.
For example, the circular jade ornament called Ping and Qua symbolizes warding off evil and ensuring safe travels, while the jade rui symbolizes apiciousness.
Regardless of whether buyers understood the meanings, at least the prestige was guaranteed after writing all this.
Luog specifically sent someone to find two loyal and clever staff members from a Jade store.
It would be even better if they could read.
Even if they couldn't, they needed to memorize the content so they could speak fluently when customers inquired, which would make them appear more professional.
Compared to these two tasks, setting up the store was actually the easiest for Lu G.
With just a word, a space could be cleared out in the commercial area of Mingjing City in no time.
After more than a week of preparation, the first jade store within the Wangia civilization officially opened.
Chapter 310.
Guia's melancholy.
It was proven that with Yiqinguan's assistance, Lu Gi managed to change into a complete set of jade tea and dining utensils.
Wearing a white jade ring made of mutton fat and hanging his black jade carp.
After patrolling Ming Jing city for a few days in a silk robe, there was no need for further words.
The promotional effect had already emerged.
After all, anything used by his majesty the emperor would automatically be labeled as the best by the people.
He also didn't te forget to promote the silk as well.
On the opening day of a jade shop, a long line formed outside the door.
However, for ordinary people, the price of jade was undoubtedly astronomical.
Essentially something they could not afford.
After 5 or 6 days of business, the jade shop quickly became quiet.
But this did not mean the shop's popularity had waned.
To be honest, the streets were buzzing with discussions about Jade, leading to a series of chain reactions.
Guad feeling very melancholic lately.
