Chapter 304: Conjecture

"Looks like you've got a good catch?"

Seeing Zhao Tianming coming out with a wooden box in his arms, Gu Jiahua said with a smile, he didn't have anything to look at, so the two walked to the counter to check out.

Gu Jiahua put the things on the table, and the shopkeeper glanced at them casually, and he didn't even get his hands on the things, so he quoted a price of 1,000.

Gu Jiahua didn't say anything, paid silently, and saw that the shopkeeper didn't mean to help him pack it, so he took it in his hand and put it away. I don't know, before the bankruptcy, did the shopkeeper also have this attitude?

Zhao Tianming put the brocade box on the table and opened it, and put everything on the table one by one for the shopkeeper to see.

The shopkeeper saw that Zhao Tianming was not holding jade, but a messy pile of jade tools and a few pieces of jade, and he couldn't help but look up at it expressionlessly.

However, he hadn't carved anything by himself for more than ten years, and he didn't know much about some of the tools in it, and although some of the tools in front of him were not impressive, he didn't think much about it.

"This shopkeeper, I want to practice my hands, can you help me see, these tools are not complete?

Seeing the shopkeeper's gaze, Zhao Tianming said with a "shy" face.

"Almost, 10,000 yuan, the jade material is sent to you. ”

The shopkeeper obviously didn't have that enthusiasm, and after a glance, he said lukewarmly, quoting a price, and he didn't plan to bargain, he was really not afraid of scaring people away.

"10,000? It's a bit too much, why don't you bother the shopkeeper to help me make a complete set? Zhao Tianming "argues with reason".

"It's redundant, and it's not professionally crafted, so many things can be used?"

The shopkeeper said impatiently, the meaning on his face, you are an amateur player, you are wasting these tools, where are the many requirements?

This batch of tools, in fact, is worth far more than 10,000 yuan, but no one wants it, it is garbage, he is really afraid of scaring away this kind of rookie who does not know how to do it, so he casually quoted 10,000 yuan, if he can't even sell this money, he would rather stay in the workshop and get moldy.

"Okay then!" Zhao Tianming put the things back in the box and prepared to pay.

"Wait, I'm really blind? This box, if you don't explain the things of the Qing Dynasty, you can take it away, 20,000. The shopkeeper stopped him and said.

It's not for nothing that people want to fish in troubled waters, but it's not so easy to escape his eyes.

Zhao Tianming was startled, and when he heard what he said, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but he had a lost expression on his face, and he looked like he had been discovered, and after talking about the price, he reluctantly paid the money.

"Do you want to fish in troubled waters? I'm afraid you don't know how vicious the shopkeeper's eyes are, so let's say that yesterday, there was a guy who hid a piece of jade in his clothes, and the shopkeeper didn't care about it at all, and he didn't call the police until he went out, and he didn't run away after squatting for a few years, and you were lucky. ”

A few people in the store who seemed to be familiar customers sneered at Zhao Tianming, that is, Zhao Tianming put it out in front of him, not stealing, at most picking up leaks, even if he called the police, they were reasonable, and the shopkeeper was too lazy to entangle, so he called it on the spot. Otherwise, he will definitely be unable to eat and walk around.

Some other people in the store, hearing what they said, immediately silently dispelled that little bit of caution, and many people even took out the jade in their pockets and held it in their hands, for fear of causing misunderstanding.

A few of them were in a cold sweat, and they didn't stay long, so they bought something casually and left.

Zhao Tianming and the two walked out of the store, and they also sighed a little, they really couldn't see that the shopkeeper's mind was so vicious.

"When did you become interested in learning jade carving skills?

Gu Jiahua asked with a smile, in fact, one of the two pieces of jade in his hand was also ancient jade, and its value was not low. However, the craftsmanship is average, and it is not a high-quality product, and it can only make a little money when it changes hands.

"It's a bit of a gain, but I haven't figured out how to deal with it yet. ”

Zhao Tianming was also a little dazed at this time, how could Lu Zigang's lost secret technique and Kun Gong knife appear in this dilapidated shop, and no one had found out?

No matter who gets Lu Zigang's inheritance, it is impossible to hide it and never show it, right? If you have studied it, even if you can't understand it, you will definitely pass down some fur, which is not in line with the description of history.

Is it Lu Zigang who stayed by himself? It is unlikely to think about it, there are many theories about how Lu Zigang died, but no matter which one is said, he was executed by the emperor, it was a sudden event, and it was too late to leave a legacy. Moreover, the kind of eating guy who carries the same thing as the Kun knife should also stay in the palace.

And if Lu Zigang had stayed before, there should have been a hint, not that no one has unearthed it until now, and the Kun Gong knife will not appear here.

He immediately thought of a possibility, could it be, as rumored, that this shop was really inherited from Wang Xiaoxi? And Wang Xiaoxi had actually been inherited by Lu Zigang?

Zhao Tianming guessed that it was likely that Wang Xiaoxi dealt with Lu Zigang for the sake of Lu Zigang's hand and his skills. Later, he did get it, but for some unknown reason, he couldn't understand it, and there was no way to show it, so in the end, he had to hide it.

The more Zhao Tianming thought about it, the more he felt that this was very likely, and as for whether it was true, it still needs to be verified. That "Lu Zigang Secret Technique", if someone turns it over, it should leave some traces.

Zhao Tianming even thought of a possibility, the reason why he couldn't learn Lu Zigang's stunt was probably related to what was hidden in the hilt.

As soon as he thought of this, he wanted to find a place to study it. It's just that I'm out there now, and I can't rush for a while.

"Hey, buddy, what a coincidence! We're meeting again. ”

Zhao Tianming was still thinking about things, but he was interrupted by a voice, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Li Xiushan and a few of them, but the fifth master was missing from his side.

"Is that you?"

Zhao Tianming was a little strange, how many of them hadn't gone back yet? What were they doing here? It couldn't be that they were also interested in antiques?

"There's a black market around here, it's all about old stuff, it's just right for you, let's go and have a look. Li Xiushan sent out an invitation.

"Black market?"

Gu Jiahua was a little stunned, why hadn't he heard of it? But he was relieved when he thought about it, although he was familiar with this place and had a lot of relationships, he had relatively little contact with some gray areas, and it was normal for him not to receive news.

And Li Xiushan is a few, it should be the news given by the fifth master, here can be said to be the fifth master's lair, what does he not know?
