Chapter Fifty-Eight: Ancient Yan (II)

Gongliang weighed the head of the divine rhinoceros beast, and then looked at it pretendedly, before asking, "How do you sell this thing?"

The stall owner was very scheming, and did not answer his words directly, but said: "Little brother, you see, this divine rhinoceros beast head carving is exquisite, it must be the work of some master, but for some reason it has fallen into the dust." I'm sorry for the value of this kind of thing if it's low, you see how much, if the price is right, I'll give it to my brother. ”

Are you doing business so well now?

Gongliang glanced at the stall owner, looked at the divine rhinoceros beast head in his hand, and said, "Ten lower-grade spirit stones." ”

He said the four words of the lower grade spirit stone very seriously, mainly because he was a little distressed when he spent a medium grade spirit stone on the bearded man's side just now. He's never been a stingy person, but it depends on what the money is used for.

When the stall owner heard Gongliang's words, his face twitched, he took a deep breath, and slowly spit it out, before he smiled and said, "Little brother said that he laughed, how can ten spirit stones buy such things." ”

"And how much do you want?"

The stall owner reached out and flipped through it.

Gongliang glanced at it, and said angrily: "Ten medium-grade spirit stones?"

The stall owner's face was stunned, but he quickly regained his smile and said: "Little brother said that he laughed, how could it be ten medium-grade spirit stones, and one hundred low-grade spirit stones." ”

Gongliang shook his head and said, "It's too expensive, I can only get a maximum of twenty lower grade spirit stones." ”

"Little brother, you see that the Divine Rhino Beast Head is in such good condition, twenty spirit stones are too low. If you sincerely want it, then I will reduce it a little more, eighty spirit stones, and it can't be less. ”

"It's too many, at most thirty spirit stones. ”

"Seventy, at least seventy. Little brother, this is a small business, and now the business is difficult to do, you can't let me sell it to you at a loss!"

"How can you lose money? I heard from the previous person that these things of yours are all debris from the school palace cleaning the courtyard. I don't bother to talk about it anymore, forget it, I'll add a little more to the loss, fifty spirit stones, if not, I can only leave. It's a big deal to add a little more to buy something better, so as not to waste your tongue. Gongliang put down the head of the divine rhinoceros beast and got up to leave.

"Fifty is fifty. ”

How could the stall owner let him leave, he quickly picked up the head of the divine rhinoceros beast and packed it, and gave a box in good condition for free.

"Little brother, if you have anything you want, you can take a look again, I guarantee that it is cheaper here than other places. If you buy more, I'll give you a discount later. ”

"Well, I'll take a look. ”

Gongliang took the box, rummaged through the bag, and when he found that there was nothing good, he stood up.

"Little brother is leaving, go slowly, come back when you have time. ”

"Good. ”

Gongliang smiled slightly and nodded, as for whether he will come again, it will definitely not. The Miao Dao Immortal Sect is so far away from the Qingyang School Palace, so a fool will come here to buy old goods. Next, he wandered around the other thrift stalls and found the broken corner of the inkstone.

I don't know if the bearded stall owner was blind before, and he didn't find such an easy-to-find remnant.

Gongliang is not clear, they are both old stall owners, and they compete with each other, what good things are not hidden, for fear of being taken away by others, how can they be put out openly for you to pick.

Besides, if he hadn't known the texture of the inkstone, how could he have found the broken object.

The latest object is a fragment under the inkstone, on which is carved a female rhino prostrate on the ground and a small rhino standing on the edge of the inkstone pond and looking out. It just echoes with the rhinoceros on the top of the inkstone.

Gongliang put together the inkstone he got, and the overall appearance of the inkstone almost came out.

At the top of the inkstone is a rhino leaning over the inkstone pond to drink water, at the bottom is a female rhino and a small rhino looking out, and in the middle is a full moon-shaped inkstone.

Although the overall appearance of the inkstone is there, the inkstone is still incomplete, and there is still a broken corner on the edge of the rhinoceros on the top of the inkstone.

But now that he has spread all over the old things, where should he find the rest? Gongliang didn't know, so he could only take the rice grain and the drum around.

After walking for a while, I felt something, and I couldn't help but look into an alley on the side of the street. There was a cart selling mille-feuille cakes, and the stall owner held a few stones against the wheels to prevent the cart from slipping away. Gongliang clearly saw that one of the stones was very familiar, and it was clearly the one that the inkstone was missing, so he hurriedly took the little guy and the drum over.

Mi Gu used to eat mille-feuille cakes when he traveled to various countries with Baba, but it is clear that the mille-feuille cakes here are different from those made in other places.

There was a sweet and salty smell wafting in the air, and I don't know how well the stall owner handled the salty and sweet taste, if not, it wouldn't be wonderful.

In the past, there was a proverb in Gongliang's hometown: "If you eat salty and sweet, your mouth will stink, and if you eat sweet and salty, you will stink your feet." ”

The rice grains also smelled the smell, especially the rich meat smell emanating from the mille-feuille cake. The little guy couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw it, and asked Baba Baba, "Baba is the cake delicious!"

Gongliang looked at her like this, although the little guy asked so, but the big eyes were saying all the time: "Baba, occasionally want to eat cakes, occasionally want to eat cakes." ”

This little guy doesn't know who to learn from, and sometimes he doesn't directly say that he wants to eat, but will tactfully remind you.

If you don't have a little understanding, it's really hard to hear.

Gu'er also stared at the mille-feuille cake and swallowed saliva, and he didn't know where the two guys had such big bellies, obviously they had just eaten enough.

Helpless, Gongliang could only say to the stall owner: "Cut three mille-feuille cakes for me." Whether your mille-feuille cake is good or not, I won't give you any money. ”

The white-haired woman heard Gongliang's joking tone and said with a smile: "Guests rest assured, the old woman's mille-feuille cake is passed down from the ancestors, and it has been eight generations so far. ”

As she spoke, the woman cut out three pieces of mille-feuille cake from bamboo slices and weighed them, then wrapped them in a piece of thick paper and handed them to Gu'er and Rice Valley, who were staring at her.

Gongliang paid the money and ate a piece of mille-feuille cake.

The little guy took a few bites, turned his head and said, "Baba, the cake is delicious!"

Gongliang tasted it, and it tasted really good.

The method of mille-feuille cake is very simple, that is, a layer of adjusted powder slurry is poured into the steamer and steamed until the slurry is condensed and the color is transparent, and then another layer is poured on, generally six to nine layers. The mille-feuille cake made by the woman was nine-layered, but she did it a little differently. It's a layer of sweetness with a layer of saltiness mixed with gravy, and animal meat on top. This beast meat has also been specially treated, and it tastes soft and rotten, and melts in the mouth.

That layer of sweetness is also different, and it should be made by blending sweet grass juice with flour slurry.

In addition, the taste of this sweet layer washes out the greasy texture of the animal meat layer, so that the two are combined, salty and sweet, sweet and salty, which is really a rare delicacy.
