Meng Zitao sneered and said, "Now that you know that you were wrong, why didn't you think about this when you cheated us out of money just now?"

The scar-faced young man said pitifully: "Boss, I can't help it, it's not easy to make two dollars these days, and I'm just trying to make a living." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"If you're too lazy, just say it, don't make excuses for yourself, I don't believe it, just go to work on the construction site at your age, and you can't even solve the problem of food and clothing?"

"Isn't it because I had a chest injury before that I can't do heavy work?"

Meng Zitao sneered: "Okay, I don't want to talk to you either, you can tell me how to compensate for my mental damages." ”

"Boss, I really don't have any money......"

Meng Zitao directly interrupted the other party's words and said viciously: "Okay, since you said that you have no money, then give you two choices, either you give me this yellow finch, or I will break your hand." ”

The scar-faced young man shook his hands again and again, and said pitifully that he had spent a long time training on this yellow finch, and without the yellow finch, he would temporarily have no source of money, and begged Meng Zitao to let him go.

Originally, Meng Zitao just said this, and he wanted to make his request after a turn, but now when he heard Scarface say this, he immediately became angry.

What can the yellow finch trained by the scar-faced youth do, needless to say, he also knows, he can definitely only use the means of "yellow finch title" to deceive people.

To deceive people to make a living, how could Meng Zitao tolerate this kind of person, he simply cut through the mess with a quick knife, and smiled: "Don't give it, Dajun, help me call the police, let him go in and stay for a while, there is food there, and someone to serve, don't be too happy." ”

As soon as the scar-faced young man heard this, his face immediately changed, although he had never had this kind of experience, but he had never eaten pork and had always seen pigs run, in the newspaper news and various gossip, offending these rich and powerful people would definitely not end well, and if he was sent in, he would have to shed his skin if he didn't die.

So, he immediately made a decision: "Boss, don't be like this, let's have something to say, can't I give you this yellow finch if you want it?" However, you see that I have no merit and hard work in training this yellow finch, can you give a little hard money? My requirements are not high, just give three or five hundred. ”

It's all at this time, this person is still thinking about money, and everyone doesn't know what to say, but also, if the scar-faced young man hadn't seen the money, he wouldn't have set his sights on them.

Originally, Meng Zitao didn't intend to give money, and the other party was a liar, so he definitely couldn't be treated according to common sense, but this guy was quite a bit of a liar, unless he was scared, otherwise he would probably have to play a scoundrel.

At this time, Meng Zitao didn't want to trouble, after all, he had already made a lot of money, so he gave the scar-faced young man three hundred yuan.

The scar-faced young man was not very satisfied at first, but Shu Ze became impatient and directly asked Jiang Xing and the army to take people away.

"My baggage!" the scar-faced young man stumbled to his feet, and when he saw that his hand was empty except for three hundred dollars, he called out to the store again.

"Oops!"

As soon as the voice fell, Jiang Xing threw his burden at him, and it hit his face at once, and he screamed again in pain.

The scar-faced young man picked up something on the ground, and noticed Jiang Xing, who was looking at him coldly, he didn't dare to stay here for long, so he pulled his legs and left.

After walking for a while, he scolded: "Why, who are they? Don't you just earn you dozens of dollars, as for treating Lao Tzu like this? Pity the bird I have been training for so long, so I exchanged such a small amount of money." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the money in his hand and comforted himself again, three hundred yuan is not bad, based on what happened in the past few days, it is estimated that it will take a while to earn three hundred yuan.

So, his mood began to improve again, and he said in his heart: "Now people are becoming more and more shrewd, this trick is not easy to make money, my bird for three hundred yuan is not bad, I caught this bird by myself, so I spent more than a dozen yuan to buy some bird food, plus some training." ”

Thinking of this, he was so proud that he began to scold Meng Zitao for being stupid and buying a worthless yellow finch for three hundred.

"Hehe, this money is my start-up capital, someone has become a multi-millionaire from scratch for a hundred dollars, can they do it?"

Thinking of the days when he had successfully started a business, had luxury cars in and out, and hugged him left and right, the scar-faced young man clenched his fists excitedly, and almost flowed down, but what followed was a "grunt" rebellion sound in his stomach, which immediately brought him back to reality.

"Forget it, let's go and fill my stomach first, I'm going to treat myself today, eat two bowls of beef noodles, which beef noodles are delicious......"

On the other side, Meng Zitao quickly put the yellow finch back into the cage, and then returned to his seat.

Shu Ze smiled and said, "I said Zitao, now you should uncover the mystery, right?"

Jiang Lao also smiled and nodded, he was well-informed, although from beginning to end, Meng Zitao's words and deeds seemed to be to teach the scar-faced young man a lesson, but in the end, he still saw that Meng Zitao's target should be related to this yellow finch, not surprisingly, it should be something on the birdcage.

"Guess first. Meng Zitao sold Guanzi first.

Shu Ze looked at the birdcage and said, "This birdcage should be a little old, but it's worth a hundred or ten yuan at most, right?"

Meng Zitao smiled: "You can take a look again." ”

Shu Ze saw Meng Zitao say this, and looked at it carefully, and in the end, it was Jiang Lao who made a discovery: "Is it this gourd?"

The gourd that Jiang Lao said is a decoration on the top of the birdcage, with a height of about 6 or 7 centimeters, and it is composed of red and yellow, which does not look very eye-catching.

"But what this thing is, I really haven't seen it before. Jiang Lao and Shu Ze both looked at Meng Zitao.

Meng Zitao explained with a smile: "I don't know if you have ever heard of the 'carved scroll'?"

"Ah, is this the carved scroll?" Jiang Lao reacted immediately, but Shu Ze still looked confused.

Meng Zitao nodded and said, "Yes, this is the carved shaft." As for what the carved shaft is, it is also easy to understand. Now everyone knows that the stones that grow on the dog's body are called 'dog treasures', the stones on the cows are called 'bezoars', and the stones that grow on the old eagles are called 'carving shafts'. ”

Shu Ze said with a look of disbelief: "I said Zitao, you are not mistaken, there will be this kind of thing on the carving." ”

"If you ask my master, you won't know if it's true or not. Meng Zitao smiled, compared to bezoars, dog treasures, pearls and the like, few people really know about carved scrolls, because it is too rare.

Think, under normal circumstances, the eagle is relatively rare in China, many people have not seen it, not to mention that it is not easy to grow a carving shaft in the body of the eagle, and the eagle is a protected animal, except for the lawbreakers, who dares to hunt?

Because of this, there are no carved shafts circulating in the market, and even if you see it, you probably don't know it. Meng Zitao also recognized it because he had seen the hanging beads made of carved shafts at the master's place before, and he had looked at them carefully.

Jiang Lao said with a smile: "There is indeed such a thing as a carved shaft, I have heard of it before, but unfortunately this thing is too rare and has never been able to see it, but I didn't expect to have an eye blessing today." ”

At this time, Shu Ze also believed in the existence of the carved shaft: "What does this thing do, does it use medicine?"

Meng Zitao said: "I don't know if it can be used in medicine, the main value of this thing is that he is very sensitive to humidity, when the weather is about to rain, the yellow part of the carved shaft increases and aggravates, which will give people a hint that it is about to rain." When the rain passed, the yellow color on it decreased and returned to normal. ”

"It's amazing that it still has such an effect. ”

Shu Ze was a little emotional, and then his eyes suddenly widened, and he pointed to the carved shaft and said, "Look, is the yellow color on it darker?"

"It can't be such a coincidence, is it going to rain just after that?"

Even Meng Zitao was a little unconvinced, but the yellow color on the carved shaft was indeed deepening and increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, which made everyone look at each other and feel very novel.

In this way, after about ten minutes, there was a sudden thunder from outside, and immediately after, there were soybean-sized raindrops that hit the window, making a "pop" sound.

"It's better to hear than to see! This carved scroll is indeed worthy of its name. Jiang Lao couldn't help but admire, and the others also agreed.

Shu Ze said: "Although it is a bit vulgar, but you have to say that this thing is magical, it is indeed quite magical, but it basically has no artistic value, and it is precious in the odd words, how much do you say it can be worth?"

Meng Zitao shook his head: "I can't see the carved shaft on the market, and I haven't heard of it in the auction market, so I can't say how much it is worth." However, I think how much it is worth depends on the person, for example, if someone wants to use this thing to show off, it is easy to sell it for a high price. ”

Shu Ze nodded yes.

Jiang Lao said: "I have heard of it before, and once there seemed to be a carved shaft in a private auction, and it was finally bought at a high price of one million. That was 10 years ago, and now I think it's worth more than 10 million. Of course, as Xiao Meng said, how much it can sell depends on the person. ”

Meng Zitao did not have the idea of transferring the carved scroll for the time being, and the three of them discussed it for a while and ended the topic of the carved scroll.

Focusing on the yellow finch in the birdcage, Shu Ze asked, "What the hell is going on with this bird?"

Meng Zitao smiled: "You still don't understand? Of course, it's because there is a smell on the stick." ”

In fact, the deceptive trick of fortune-telling is still easy to see, and it is generally the so-called fortune teller who has done it in advance.

Since the yellow finch is an easily domesticated bird, the so-called fortune teller usually feeds the yellow finch with soaked food with a special taste, so that the yellow finch becomes familiar with this taste, and then trains it...... (To be continued.) )
