Chapter 107: The Evolution of Snobbery
Jiang Ping couldn't care about being happy, and hurriedly took out all his pockets, but only turned out a few dozen yuan of change. He looked at the bank card with a single-digit balance again, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The next few days are going to be hard!"
Just now, Jiang Ping was only concerned about buying this sacrificial red glazed hanging gall bottle, and forgot to leave some living expenses for himself. In normal times, it's not a big deal. Anyway, Jiang Ping can go home to eat, and he doesn't have to worry about starving to death.
However, Jiang Ping just said goodbye to his family yesterday and went to Hangzhou for a "tour". According to his original plan, the trip would be at least a week away. In other words, in the next week, Jiang Ping couldn't go home, so he could only live on the dozens of yuan on his body.
Of course, Jiang Ping can also choose to sell the porcelain vase he just arrived, or sell the gilded Buddha statue of the Ming Dynasty that he took back earlier, which can be exchanged for a lot of cash.
However, in order to maximize profits, it is necessary to find the right buyer, and this takes time. Moreover, these two objects have the aura required by the snobbish eye, and Jiang Ping is really not willing to sell it before absorbing all the light.
So no matter how you look at it, in the next week, Jiang Ping can only live on the little change in his pocket. However, Jiang Ping was very happy to receive this Qianlong red glazed hanging gall bottle today, and felt that it was very worthwhile to suffer for a few days.
Because he couldn't go home these days, Jiang Ping could only bring the sacrificial red glazed hanging gall bottle to the courtyard of Huanhua Lane. In fact, since Jiang Ping rented this place, he has gradually made this place his base. In addition to this sacrificial red glazed hanging gall bottle, even the gilded Buddha statue of the Ming Dynasty was hidden by Jiang Ping in his own hut.
After returning to the courtyard, Jiang Ping carefully put the red glazed hanging gall bottle away, and then took out the gilded Buddha statue and began to absorb the aura in it. Ever since he knew that he had the ability to be snobbish, Jiang Ping had not stopped exploring the mysteries. Anyway, as long as there is the right opportunity, he will use snobbery on others.
For example, the middle-aged man who shot this red glazed hanging gall bottle before was observed by Jiang Ping with a snobbish eye. Jiang Ping was on his seal hall and saw a cloud of golden light that occupied the entire seal hall. At that time, Jiang Ping knew that this middle-aged man was already in fortune. And the most likely speculation is that he will definitely sell the sacrificial red glazed hanging gall bottle on the same day. It is precisely because of this that Jiang Ping did not hesitate to spend all his cash to buy this porcelain vase - after this village, there will be no such shop.
And after using his snobbery, Jiang Ping's eyes began to feel a little dry again. So as soon as he got home, he began to absorb the aura in the gilded Buddha statue, promising that he could use his snobbery again at any time when needed.
After many snobbish performances, Jiang Ping found that the time to absorb the aura was gradually becoming longer recently. This is not to say that the speed of absorbing aura has slowed down, but that more aura is absorbed each time.
Of course, Jiang Ping did not make such a random guess, but had facts as the basis. Jiang Ping noticed that he had used his snobbery more often in the past few days.
Jiang Ping exerts snobbery on others, even if he doesn't see any luck, he still consumes aura. At the beginning, Jiang Ping used such a failed snob three times at most, and he would feel that his eyes were sour and hot, and he could not continue. Recently, Jiang Ping has been able to perform it four times in a row, and his eyes still feel very comfortable. This shows that Jiang Ping's eyes have more and more aura stored in his eyes, which can support him to use his snobbish ability more times. And the more aura the eyes can store, the longer it will take to absorb the aura, and the two are undoubtedly complementary to each other.
After discovering this, Jiang Ping would keep a precise timer every time he absorbed the aura. When he finished absorbing the aura this time, he found that the absorption time was a few seconds longer than the last time. Although there are not many changes in time, it is a real reminder that as the number of times it is cast more and more, the snobbery is slowly changing.
"Is this considered evolution?" Jiang Ping, who had absorbed the aura, gently stroked his eyelids and muttered to himself: "Although the changes under the eyes are insignificant, there is a saying that 'quantitative changes cause qualitative changes', I really want to know what Cheng Dรน my eyes can evolve in the end!"
Everyone has curiosity, not to mention the ability to be snobbish. I believe that whoever has this ability will try their best to explore the mysteries.
Jiang Ping knew that the reason for the evolution of snobbery was inextricably related to the number of times this ability was exerted. As long as he practiced the snobbery as diligently as he practiced the Xuankong Technique, these eyes would continue to evolve, and sooner or later he would figure out the secrets.
Of course, to achieve this goal, Jiang Ping must work hard. In other words, make more money, buy more antiques containing aura and return them for the snob to absorb, only in this way can the snob continue to evolve.
So in the next few days, Jiang Ping worked very hard. I wake up very early every day and start working until it is completely dark. At the same time, Jiang Ping was still practicing the Xuankong Technique diligently, whether it was physical training, breathing or medicinal bathing, none of them fell, and he was indeed working very hard.
Working and practicing so hard, the consumption of physical energy is naturally very large, and the specific table is that Jiang Ping's amount of food has also become larger. However, the sad thing is that Jiang Ping only has a few dozen yuan in his pocket, and he has to hold on for a week. So he was faced with a very real problem, and he was likely to go hungry in the next few days.
In order to last as long as possible, Jiang Ping was also more frugal. For a few days, he used two white-flour steamed buns for every meal, and as for the next meal, there was only a bag of mustard.
Every time he has a white flour steamed bun with mustard, Jiang Ping himself feels a little funny. After all, he was a world-famous thief in his previous life, and if he let go of his hands and feet to "make money", not to mention becoming a monopoly immediately, it would not be a problem to mix food and clothing to treat his sister.
However, Jiang Ping, who has already died once, knows what kind of life is the most precious. It's hard now, but I'm at ease. You don't have to worry about sleeping when a police officer suddenly barges in and takes you away. So even if he can only live on white flour steamed buns and mustard every day, Jiang Ping is also happy.
However, Jiang Ping himself doesn't care about this, and it doesn't mean that others think the same as him. Zhang Wanqing has noticed for several days that her neighbor lives on steamed buns and mustard. Although Zhang Chenlin didn't dare to talk to Jiang Ping until now because of the "wet pajamas" incident a few days ago, this kind girl was still very sympathetic to his situation and decided to try her best to help her neighbors.
