How much is Chapter 1079 worth?
His soft exclamation instantly drew the attention of everyone present. Everyone looked at General William, wondering what fine tableware the general had seen that could make him so excited.
Even the people around him followed his gaze and curiously glanced at the small wooden box he held in his palm.
Brian, standing beside him, glanced at the box in his hand, but still couldn't make out the contents.
Seeing this, he quickly picked up a similar wooden box from the large box. His fingers touched the clasp, and he gently opened it, his eyes immediately drawn to the exquisite tableware lying inside.
The three knives, forks, and spoons, made of some unknown material, were all gleaming. They were no longer tableware; they were simply exquisite works of art!
He gasped in shock, his mouth agape, hardly believing his eyes. He held his breath, quickly closed his eyes, and then jerked them open again.
The tableware still lay on the brocade lining in the small box. "It's not a hallucination! It's not a hallucination!" he murmured to himself.
Then he carefully picked up one of the forks, ran his hand over its smooth surface, examined it for a long time, and exclaimed to himself, "So exquisite! Absolutely so exquisite!"
The soldiers surrounding General William had been craning their necks to look at the exquisite tableware in the wooden box in the general's hand, their eyes wide with amazement.
They stared longingly, but no one dared to utter a sound. They noticed there weren't many of these small wooden boxes, suggesting a limited supply, so none of them dared to hope they could buy one.
Moreover, judging from its exquisite appearance, it must be very valuable, probably astronomically expensive, something that ordinary soldiers simply cannot afford.
Meanwhile, Joliv, hearing his cousin muttering incessantly, became very curious and forgot all about his pen and notebook.
She approached her cousin Brian, who was holding an exquisite wooden box and muttering to himself in a daze, and asked, "Cousin, what are you holding? Why are you saying it's so exquisite?"
Brian was snapped out of his reverie by the shout and hurriedly held up the wooden box in his hand, saying excitedly, "Cousin, look at this set of tableware! I've never seen anything like it in my life!"
"Oh? How exquisite is it? Let me see!" Joliv's eyes lit up, and he reached out and snatched the wooden box away.
"Hey! Why did you steal mine!" Brian panicked, fearing that there were only a few sets of this tableware and it would be gone in no time. He quickly found a small wooden box in the big box and took it in his hand.
Seeing this, Henry, who was standing nearby, also looked for one, and Oria also searched in the box.
When General William saw that Earl Brian was treating the tableware like a treasure, he felt a pang of anxiety, fearing that it would be snatched up if he was even a moment too late.
He quickly turned to Ouyang Yunyao, his eyes filled with eagerness, "Princess Jing, may I ask how much gold this set of tableware costs? How many sets are there in total? This general would like to buy several sets!"
Ouyang Yunyao stood to the side, watching with great interest as the group of Luoba people scrambled for the Western tableware she had brought out. She was still wondering why the tableware was so popular. She sighed to herself, "If I had known this thing was so popular, I should have brought some out earlier!"
Suddenly, General William called her name. Hearing his question, she paused for a moment, then her eyes flickered, a sly smile playing on her lips, and she countered with:
"General William, how much do you think our exquisite tableware set is worth?"
"This...this..." General William was caught off guard by the question, his face instantly turning red. He stammered for a long time, not knowing how to answer.
He thought that this set of tableware was truly high-class, and its exquisiteness was beyond his imagination. Not to mention him, judging from Prince Joliv's eyes, he knew that even the King had probably never seen such high-class tableware.
Only then did he realize that this set of tableware would definitely not be cheap, but how much gold would it cost? He had no idea.
But deep down he hoped it would be cheaper so he could buy two. He had already decided that no matter how high the price, he had to buy one.
Jolief, who was standing to the side admiring the exquisite tableware in the wooden box, frowned and fell into thought upon hearing William's question and Princess Jing's counter-question.
He didn't know how much gold this set of tableware would require, but in his judgment, it should be no less than twenty taels of gold.
Then, he and Brian, who was beside him, whispered to each other.
After a short while, he raised his head, staring intently at Ouyang Yunyao, and cautiously asked, "Princess Jing, what... what is the price of this set of tableware? Just tell me!"
Ouyang Yunyao blinked her bright eyes and smiled at him, saying, "Your Highness, General, I need to discuss this with Prince Jing and the others." Ouyang Yunyao said this on purpose, but it was also to seek their opinions.
"Of course! You should discuss this with His Highness Prince Jing and the others as soon as possible. We await your news!" Joliv said respectfully.
Ouyang Yunyao turned around and moved closer to Chu Chenjing and her second brother Ouyang Yunxiang, lowering her voice to whisper her thoughts.
Chu Chenjing looked down at her, his eyes full of doting affection. He raised his hand and gently ruffled the top of her head, saying in a tender voice, "Yaoyao, it's up to you to decide!"
Ouyang Yunxiang frowned and whispered, "Little sister, what kind of tableware is this? They really like it. I think it's exquisitely made, so you can't sell it cheaply."
He then suggested, "It shouldn't be less than the price of that fountain pen."
Ouyang Yunxiang knew that his younger sister's Qiankun bag was like magic, always able to produce all sorts of strange and unusual things, and in considerable quantities.
But judging from how much the Loba people seemed to like these tableware, they wouldn't care if his sister sold them for a lower price.
"Don't worry, Second Brother! I know this. This set of tableware is an indispensable part of their meals for the Luoba people." Ouyang Yunyao smiled, her eyes crinkling like a little fox who had just stolen some cream.
After Ouyang Yunyao finished speaking, she paused and then said, "I'm prepared to sell this set of tableware to them for fifty taels of silver. What do you think?"
She already had a plan in mind. She had plenty of this kind of tableware in her space, and there were even more upscale styles. But she wasn't going to take them now. She would take out those more upscale tableware when they went to the continent of Luoba later, and they would definitely be in high demand then.
Chu Chenjing and Ouyang Yunxiang exchanged a glance and nodded simultaneously: "This price is appropriate."
With their approval, Ouyang Yunyao turned to look at Qiao Lifu and the others.
Ouyang Yunyao noticed that all the Luoba people were staring at her expectantly.
She smiled slightly, a slight upturn at the corners of her lips, and said, "Your Highness, Your Excellency, after discussion, the price of this set of tableware is..."
All the Loba people held their breath, their eyes fixed intently on her.
