Chapter 127: Digging a Pit
Old man Li saw that the box had been opened, and said a little helplessly: "This is called a cone, a cold moon cone, my family's ancestral, the elders say that this is a special thing for the assassins of the late Tang Dynasty, if I am not in a hurry to use the money, I will not do this loser's funeral."

The red-faced fat man's eyes widened, and he scolded angrily: "Old man Li, what do you want to do?
Old man Li grinned his shriveled lips, smiled bitterly, and said: "I think about it, this time in order to treat my grandson, I gave up everything, it's not that I don't have credit, you two cheat me, the old man is like a mirror in his heart." β
The white-faced He Taolong took out a box of 'Jiangcheng Special Alcohol' and handed it to Old Man Li for the first time, and explained: "Lao Li, we are all old acquaintances, why don't you say it earlier if you have difficulties? Isn't it just money, let's add some more to you, five thousand is enough to mean it, right?"
The red-faced fat man began to count the money from his bag.
"I'm old, I can't smoke your high-end goods, it's phlegm!" Old man Li pushed away his cigarette, turned his head and said to Long Leiyan, who was still looking at the dagger: "Young man, you look like a warm-hearted and righteous man, if you really want it, I will sell it to you for 8,000 yuan!"
With a snap, Long Lei Yan closed the lid and said, "If you want to, why don't you want it?" Eight thousand is it, isn't it, deal!"
Today, Liu Shuaichen gave a deposit of 5,000 yuan, Long Leiyan originally had some money in his pocket, but he spent 1,004 to buy gourds and couplets just now, and took out all the money in his pocket, counting 6,000.
"Boss, I'm two hundred. The mouse is holding two large bills in his hand, his family living conditions are good, and he usually gives a lot of pocket money.
Xiao Qi and Fat Dun rummaged through their pockets, and even made up three hundred yuan in change.
The sum of these money is still 1,040 short, Long Leiyan thought to himself, go to Xinxin Noodle Restaurant to find Aunt Liu to borrow some? Or find Hao Xueqiang who received medicine?
The white-faced He Taolong saw that he didn't have enough money, so he came to the spirit and shouted to Old Man Li: "Look, you think anyone can buy this thing, I have to add some more to you to make up seven thousand, and I will take the thing." He decided that Long Leiyan would not be able to get money in a short period of time.
Who would have thought that Long Leiyan inadvertently caught a glimpse of two teenagers not far behind him, who were bowing their heads and picking up things in a stall. Long Lei Yan shouted at them: "Hey, you two, yes, it's you two, come here and have something!"
The two of them looked a little flustered and walked over step by step.
"Is there anything wrong with you?" asked the taller boy.
Long Leiyan twisted his fingers at them: "Do you have any money with you?"
The chunky boy stammered, "What are you going to do?"
Long Leiyan raised his chin: "It's time for you to pay!"
The two teenagers were inexplicable and asked in unison, "What money?"
"Stupid, pay the tracking fee! You two have been with me for a long time, you can't say it if you don't pay some money, right?"
Green Snake Weiwei sent a few tails, every day in shifts at the door of Long Leiyan's house to star, today is the class of these two, since Long Leiyan went out has been following here, at first Long Leiyan didn't find out, just now I accidentally saw a tattoo of a green snake on one of the arms, only to know that he was being followed again.
Wei Wei arranged to follow the people who specially instructed him to wear long sleeves, and today it was too hot to roll up his sleeves and was discovered by Long Leiyan.
Thin and tall, with a stalk neck: "What if I don't hand you over?"
Long Dashao smiled at the corner of his mouth: "If you don't pay it, don't follow me, if you are annoyed, I will call the police, and see how you explain when you go back!"
The two goods knew the punishment after they went back, so frightened that their legs and stomachs trembled a little, and hurriedly took the money out of their pockets. The two of them had a lot of money on them, and they took out a total of 2,000 yuan.
Leaving a hundred yuan for the two of them, Long Dashao gathered the rest of the money together and handed it to Old Man Li.
When the red-faced fat man saw that his business had been cut off, he immediately became angry, and yelled at Long Leiyan: "You kid dare to buy this thing, I guarantee that you won't be able to go down to the top of the city!"
Before Long Leiyan could speak, the two boys of the green snake were angry and had nowhere to spill, and the two of them twisted the arm of the red-faced fat man left and right, stuck his head on the pheasant, and kicked him hard at the big belly.
"It's crazy enough, if you don't see the sun coming out today, you will scream!"
He Taolong stepped forward and said kind words to the two boys repeatedly, and only then did they scold and let go of the red-faced fat man.
The fat man was almost angry by the pheasant card, and he took out his mobile phone to call someone, He Taolong grabbed him and whispered: "We can't afford to mess with these people, look at their arms." β
The fat man was also an old man, and when he saw the green snake tattoo on their arm, he was so frightened that he hurriedly slipped away with He Taolong.
"Uncle, count the money!" Long Leiyan finished reading the joke and gave all the money in his hand to Old Man Li.
"It's not so much!" Old Man Li muttered while counting the money, and asked Long Leiyan to return the extra four hundred.
Long Leiyan waved his hand and said: "It's not easy for you to be old, take it all, it's not a decimal number to treat your child, it's better to have more money than less." β
Old man Li thanked him again and again, pulled Long Leiyan to the side where there was no one, and whispered: "You are lucky, my cold moon cone is not ordinary, you see that it is snow-white in the daylight during the day, and when the moonlight shines at night, it will turn jet black." β
The first time he heard that the dagger could change color, Long Leiyan became interested, and took out the remaining half box of special supplies from last night from his pocket, he rarely smoked, and stuffed them all into Old Man Liu, and lit another one for him.
"Uncle, this is strange, you always talk about it!"
"I don't know this principle, anyway, the things left by the ancestors are not all feudal dross. Old man Liu leaned against the pheasant, spewing clouds and spitting mist.
This is true, Long Leiyan thinks so. The bronze mirror of the Qin and Han dynasties can shine the text on the back of the sun, and the bronze sword of the Warring States period will not rot for thousands of years. Although later generations have also restored these technologies with high technology, they are only similar in shape and lack of charm, and the wisdom of the ancients cannot be underestimated.
"Originally, I also thought about selling it in a proper way, but I was afraid that the price given would not be appropriate, and we had no way, so we had to try our luck on the black market. Old man Liu took a few puffs and said, "Come and bring the box." β
The wooden box was held in Long Leiyan's hand, Old Man Li opened half of it, pressed the cold moon cone with his hand, pressed it from the handle with one hand, and pulled out a long stab at the end: "Look, this cold moon cone is a letter blade, and there is a piercing thorn hidden in it, look at your child's solid eyes, I told you, if you sell it to someone else, let him figure it out by himself!"
The sun has turned west, and today Saturday, the business of the Yixin pawnshop is quite good, and it is about to get off work in an hour, and there are still many customers waiting in the hall to handle business.
The bright copper-framed glass door was pushed open, and two men in suits and leather shoes entered.
The two were none other than Scar Three and the butcher, who were guided by the service staff to the pawn counter.
The one on duty happened to be the old Wang who received Long Leiyan last time.
"What do you two want to pledge?"
A black plastic bag was put on the counter, Scara San didn't speak, and the butcher said: "The ancestors of the family handed down a piece of Qing Dynasty pastel, the royal use, you can show it!"
There are a lot of pastels in the Qing Dynasty, but the real royal ones rarely appear in the people, so Lao Wang was a little disdainful in his heart, and opened the plastic bag with the mentality of looking at it.
A uniquely shaped pastel porcelain appeared in front of him, the old man took it in his hand and looked at it several times, put on his glasses, looked at them separately with a magnifying glass, and finally licked it with the tip of his tongue after asking for permission, and then said: "I am inexperienced alone, wait for me to call a few masters to take a look together!"
Scar San and the butcher saw that he had licked the potty just now, and their hearts were disgusted, and the old man really went to his mouth.
After a while, several appraisers who had passed the sixtieth year arrived at the counter. They all watched it all.
A bald appraiser said: "This is the work of Wang Qi, the eight friends of Zhushan during the Qianlong period, you see that the flowers, birds, fish and insects are very expressive, especially this palace maid, half-exposed fragrant shoulders, very rare in the first three Qing Dynasty with strict etiquette, the overall painting style is novel, the painting is profound, a rare treasure!
The rest of the people also chimed in.
An appraiser whispered: "This is absolutely true, the picture is full of layers, the glaze is natural, the surface is clean, there is no trace of aging, but the smell of urine is a little bigger, could it be that the collector used it to relieve his hands?"
The other said: "Don't talk about this, I read the style, no problem this is used by Qianlong's royal family, the only question is a little doubt, don't all toilets are used in the palace?
The appraiser just now was not happy: "Who stipulates that the toilet must be used, in case the emperor is unwell and needs to be solved in bed? You can take care of it? You see that the urine alkali in it may be Qianlong himself!"
"A few people, a few people, let's not argue about this, I'll go do spectral analysis, and carbon 14 testing. Lao Wang persuaded a few people and took the commode to do the test.
The three butchers were impatient, and Lao Wang appeared at the counter with a commode and said to them, "The things are fine, do you two bring your ID cards?"
Both of them took out their ID cards, and Lao Wang looked at the number and recorded it, and then said: "Do you two want to sell it directly? Or pledge it? If you do, our company will have an auction house, and we will arrange a summer auction for you immediately, or the company will directly collect it and give you cash." β
Scarry asked, "How much do you want to collect?"
This thing really can't be done, because the amount is too big, Lao Wang called Zhang Zhe in the office and asked: "One and a half million!"
Scar San and the butcher took a breath of cold air, but they didn't expect that the thing given by Long Lei Yan turned out to be real, worth one and a half million!
Scarthree immediately wanted to sell, but after thinking about it, the purpose of this trip was not to sell things, but to dig a pit, so he said: "This is inherited by the ancestors, don't dare to sell it casually, that's a loser, I need more than 100,000 turnovers to do business with my friends, let's pledge it!"
