Volume 1 The Rain of Jianyi Chapter 49 The Wind Rises and Falls (2)
"Boom, boom—"
In the secret realm of Ah Xiao's life, the earth began to shake, countless dust was swept up into the sky by the hurricane, and the simulated Sun Star and Taiyin Star in the secret realm were covered by sandstorms that covered the sky and the sun, and there were more and more cracks in the life pass, and even the incomparably pure Haoran Qi of the cold was about to be unable to support it, and the collapse of the secret realm deepened!
Seeing this scene, the pages of the book turned over again, and countless words shining with golden light came out of its body, and the words formed a magic seal one by one and flew towards the cracks in the sky, and finally blocked this trace of heaven in an unbelievable way!
"Stinky boy, this is my last resort!" Sui Han's voice was a little weak and hoarse, this style was obviously too expensive for him, if the secret realm continued to collapse, it would be powerless.
Even if Sui Han tried his best now, he could only suspend the collapse of the secret realm, and he weakly shouted in a certain direction outside Ah Xiao's body: "Stinky Daoist, don't you really care about this, don't you really know?"
"Eh, shopkeeper, if you want to give me this price if you don't have any less money?" said the old Taoist priest, standing in an ordinary grocery store, with a hard tongue.
"No less! I won't be able to make any more money!" The eyes of the shopkeeper of the grocery store were fixed on the old Taoist priest who had come to his store since the morning, and he refused to back down a single step.
The shopkeeper's figure was a little fat, his two slender eyebrows were slightly distorted, he was wearing a somewhat ill-fitting gray gown, and the fat on his stomach propped up the belly of the gown, and as soon as he moved, the belly of the gown bulged and shrank with the shaking of the fat.
"Look at what you said, it's like how much I take advantage of you, every time I buy something, I come to you to buy it, this time I buy so much, can you take a long-term view of the business, even if you give me a face, it's less, right?"
The old Taoist priest looked at the shopkeeper hopefully, and his words made the shopkeeper almost think that he had too much friendship with him.
"Even if you come to me every time to buy it, I can't buy it for you for fifty yuan, not to mention that today you should be the first time to come to me!" The shopkeeper secretly slandered in his heart, but he couldn't say it openly, there were other customers in the store at this time, if he said this to other guests, wouldn't it be clearly saying that he was not emotional?
"This price is really the lowest!" The shopkeeper picked up the item that the old Taoist priest had been staring at, the item was a carp blessing copper lamp, and the shopkeeper continued: "Master, I won't frame you, you look at the workmanship of this lamp, this is made of a whole piece of copper, and the weight of selling this copper alone is probably more than 40 yuan, right? We really can't sell it at the price of 50 yuan. ”
The old Taoist priest smiled and stretched out his hand to stroke the carp blessing copper lamp, looking like he couldn't put it down, he held the copper lamp with both hands, and said: "It is worthy of being made of a whole piece of copper, this thing is really heavy!"
"That's not it, my things here are all serious goods, made of a whole piece of copper, and there is no adulteration! I just charge you seventy yuan, this price is not too much, right? Where do you go to another house with such a fair price!" After speaking, the shopkeeper hurriedly took the bronze lamp from the old Taoist priest and said:
"These things are all new, just shipped goods, if you don't buy it, don't touch it, how can I sell it when the time comes?"
"Oh, is the shopkeeper really afraid that he won't be able to sell it if he touches the old ones?" the old Taoist priest looked meaningfully at the shopkeeper standing behind the counter.
The shopkeeper frowned, a little displeased: "Is that not it? I will lose money if I sell your old erases, if I can't sell it, will you buy it for seventy yuan?"
"But...... How can I look at the shopkeeper like he is afraid of being touched?" The old Taoist priest took a step forward with a smile, and his momentum also rose: "I see...... The shopkeeper is not afraid of being touched by the old bronze lamp, but is a little afraid so he dodges?"
Hearing the words of the old Taoist priest in front of him, the muscles on the shopkeeper's face couldn't help twitching, his face turned a little dark, his head tilted slightly towards the old Taoist, and he said in a low voice:
"I see that you are also a monk, so I have been kind enough to talk to you more, but how can you say these words now? Let me tell you again, in the whole Dongcheng of Yi'an County, I sell the most good goods, and there is no second time at all, if you come to me to talk some nonsense, don't blame me for not being merciful. ”
"Okay, shopkeeper, let me say one last word, do you sell fifty wen or not?" the old Taoist priest sighed.
"I really can't sell it, this thing...... It's really worth more than fifty wen," the shopkeeper still refused to back down half a step, but his tone was obviously a little relaxed.
"Well, since the shopkeeper is unwilling, then forget it, after all, this thing is really made of a whole large piece of copper!
The old Taoist priest was about to leave, but he sighed inexplicably at the door, which caused everyone in the store to look at this side, and this unusual behavior made the shopkeeper feel a little furious.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were almost focused on him, the old Taoist priest walked back with a smile at this time, and asked loudly, "There is still something I forgot to say, dare to ask the shopkeeper if there is a melon and fruit plate for sale here?"
The shopkeeper nodded and said, "I have a lot of objects in this Hongqing restaurant, and this little melon and fruit plate naturally has it." ”
"That's fine, I just want to buy a melon and fruit plate, the one at home is a little broken, so I want to ask you what kind of money to buy. The old Taoist priest made a gesture and asked humbly.
Looking at the concerned eyes of the people around him, although the shopkeeper didn't really want to deal with the old Taoist, who knew what kind of moth this guy wanted to make, but for the sake of the reputation of the people around him, he still made a look of a Confucian Taoist sage who understands righteousness and respects the elderly.
He hurriedly ran out from behind the counter, with a look of panic on his face: "Master, please get up quickly, how can you afford to do this to me!"
After supporting the old Taoist priest, the shopkeeper has already won the recognized eyes of the people around him, and with such a mass base, he said more humbly: "If you choose a melon and fruit plate, you have to see if you like heavy or light?"
"The heavier ones are better, and the heavier ones are not easy to turn. ”
"If you choose a heavy weight, it has a gray iron texture, and this kind of is cheap. ”
After that, the shopkeeper took out a gray metal fruit plate from the large business cabinet at the back, "This thing was originally sold for fifty wen, but now you are a monk, and I also believe in true martial arts, so I will sell it to you cheaply, as long as forty wen, how about it?" asked the shopkeeper with a kind face.
"Then I still don't know, how much can this gray iron weigh? Could it be that the weight of copper is not it?" the old Taoist priest frowned, ready to pick up the fruit plate and test the weight.
The shopkeeper shook the fat all over his body, and hurriedly put the fruit plate back, who knows what the old Taoist priest in front of him wants to do, after thinking about it, he still held back the impatience in his heart, and said: "Look at what you said, you don't know the market, this gray iron, but it is the same weight as the copper, it must meet the weight you want!"
The old Taoist priest put on a look of sudden realization, he approached the shopkeeper slightly, and whispered:
"I see, I don't know why your lamp has such a weight, as we all know, gray iron and pure copper are two for one, so why do you sell me a gray iron copper-plated carp to send a blessing lamp, why do you need seventy yuan? Could it be that your wick is made of gold?"
"You!" The shopkeeper blushed when he heard this, and wanted to scold something, but then noticed the eyes of everyone around him, so he whispered, "What do you want to do?"
"I want that brass lamp. ”
The shopkeeper gritted his teeth, was ruthless, and said, "Then I will sell you sixty yuan!"
The old Taoist priest shook his head: "Forty-five Wen!"
"What? Aren't you robbing money! Forty-five wen, my copper lamp costs more than that!"
"Forty texts. The old Taoist priest stretched out four fingers and smiled.
"You, robbery, you?" the shopkeeper looked around and whispered, and then put on an extremely painful look, and said, "That fifty wen, is it okay to have fifty wen?"
The old Taoist priest shook his unclean robe, twisted the embroidery on his clothes and said: "Shopkeeper, if you do this again, it will be more than forty yuan, I believe that your huge shop will make a lot ......of money a day, right?
The shopkeeper cried and said as if begging for mercy: "Yes, I will plant it today, it will be forty yuan, it will be forty yuan, and you can take the things!"
The transaction was quickly completed, and the old Taoist priest finally got the carp blessing bronze lamp at a price of forty yuan, and he walked out of the door of the shop, turned around and shouted triumphantly: "The shopkeeper's voice is always good!"
The shopkeeper replied after chasing him out of the store, and he had already spat a mouthful of thick phlegm in his heart, "Business is always good, you are raised by your father! But he just thought about it in his heart, and then he called his man and ordered in a low voice: "If you see this old Taoist priest again in the future, don't let him into the store, we Hongqing can't afford to provoke this great god, do you hear?"
......
The old Taoist priest who had just got a bargain hummed a little tune, and walked down the street with the carp lantern in his arms, and was ready to wander around and buy some things for his home.
"Boom-", without warning, a thunderclap suddenly exploded on the ground, followed by a pouring rain, the old Taoist priest unhurriedly opened his oil-paper umbrella, the rain dropped extremely quickly, crackling on the street, the pedestrians on the street you shouted for a while, the street was empty after a while.
The crowd had already dispersed when the thunder struck, and the shops on the street had closed their doors early because the rain was too heavy.
He stretched out his hand to catch some raindrops falling from the sky, and the old, energetic eyes narrowed slightly, and his brow furrowed for a moment, and then gradually relaxed.
"The autumn wind is raining, and this rain is going to be over. ”
"But it's not a big deal. He smiled and shook his head, and the brass lamp in his arms tightened his grip.
