Chapter 145: The Origin of Jiaoyang Jade
Walking on the bluestone road, Su Yang and the two of them, dressed in single clothes, naturally attracted a lot of strange eyes. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The two shook their heads and smiled bitterly, although the cultivators were not afraid of the cold, but in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the two of them still decided to buy a few early spring coats, and just took this opportunity to take a good look at the deserted town.
There are many shops on both sides of the street, and because of the proximity to the Geumhe River, those tourists will sometimes enter the shops to have a look, which makes those shops a little hot and cold without fear of the cold.
Su Yang's eyes swept with interest through the shops full of dazzling goods, and at this moment, a jade shop called Meridian Garden caught his attention.
Thinking of the formation obtained in Iwacheng, didn't you just need a jade called Jiaoyang Jade?
I wonder if there will be one here?
Su Yang stepped into the door of the store with great interest, Jing Chi saw it, and suddenly had a trace of doubt, what was Su Yang going to do here?
Could it be that his eldest brother still has the temperament to appreciate jade?
Jing Chi shook his head, didn't say much, and followed suspiciously.
At this time, there were quite a few tourists in the store, standing in front of the stage in twos and threes, so that the only two clerks, including the shopkeeper, couldn't spare time to greet the two, but after taking a look at the dress of the two, they smiled disdainfully, and they didn't plan to come.
Su Yang was also happy to be quiet, no one came to disturb him, so he slowly looked for it on the counter, and looked at the name marked on a wooden plaque under the jade meticulously.
In Jing Chi's eyes, he thought that Su Yang was really watching carefully, which immediately made him admire, and he thought, could it be that the literati and scholars throughout the ages have not been able to do this?
It's no wonder that he can't write any atmospheric poems, and he can only blame him for not having this talent.
The two of them looked at the counter, both of them were a little surprised by the craftsmanship of this antique, and Jing Chi did not disturb Su Yang, and one person also watched from the side.
At this moment, a three-fingered wooden box displayed separately on the wall caught Su Yang's attention.
The wooden box didn't have a lid, so the strange-looking piece of jade fell directly into Su Yang's gaze.
The jade's lines are a little blue, and there is even a little dirt embedded in the cracks.
It is ordinary, and even the quality is slightly inferior, but after Su Yang saw it clearly, a gleam erupted in his eyes!
Because on the wooden plaque on display, it is the Jiaoyang jade!
A sudden look appeared on Su Yang's face, but before he could think about it, an impatient voice sounded, coming from the other end of the counter, from the mouth of the rich businessman with a round belly.
"Be careful, you put it on the stage to watch, what do you do with it, I'm afraid you won't be able to afford it if it breaks!" The shopkeeper walked slowly with a big belly, with some disdain in his eyes, staring at Su Yang unpleasantly.
Hearing this, Su Yang put the wooden box on the counter, pointed to the jade inside and said, "Shopkeeper, may I ask how much of this jade is in your store?" ”
The corners of the rich businessman's mouth twitched slightly, and he casually put the wooden box back on the wall, propped up his two fleshy palms on the counter, and sneered: "If you really know the goods, what would you say?" Don't reveal your IQ if you don't buy it. ”
Su Yang's face suddenly turned cold, and he was about to teach this dog-eyed and low-looking lord a lesson, but his eyes were suddenly attracted by the sound of impact from the counter, from Jing Chi's palm!
I saw Jing Chi slam on the counter, and all the antiques on the counter trembled, and suddenly frightened the boss's legs and feet. Where did the barbarians come from!
"My eldest brother asked you how many of these things are in this store, and you replied, what are you crooked?!" Jing Chi glared at the fat shopkeeper, sixteen years old, but with the appearance of a twenty-year-old person, a Chinese face was ruthless and old, and the fat shopkeeper who looked at it had straight hairs in his heart.
"Yes, yes, son's righteousness, it's small." The fat shopkeeper looked at this person's arrogant appearance, and secretly complained in his heart, and looked at the young man who was called the eldest brother by the young man in white again, thinking of what they were going to buy, where was the slightest ridicule in his eyes, and nodded directly.
"Whether this piece of jade is a Taoist in the heavens or a great name in the world, they like to use this jade to make the hilt of the sword, because this jade is gentle and not slippery, so it is also very expensive, and how do I know that it is not a joke for Childe to ask me how many there are in the store......
Jing Chi was about to slap him, and yelled: "Ask how many stores you have, do you say yes!" ”
The fat shopkeeper said, "Yes...... There are about 10 pieces ......"
After hearing this, Su Yang directly took out a large bag of silver and threw it on the table, and with the crisp impact sound, the fat shopkeeper's figure also trembled, his tongue was dry, and he was dumbfounded.
"Is that enough?" Su Yang looked coldly at the fat shopkeeper's cautious appearance.
"Enough...... Enough is enough......" The fat shopkeeper turned around and ran into the back room, throwing his fat meat sideways, and his embarrassed appearance made the two of them look at it with contempt.
"This is all the stock of our store...... "The fat shopkeeper spread ten wooden boxes on the table and said, "Forty-two taels of silver each, a total of four hundred and twenty taels." ”
Su Yang put the ten wooden boxes into his arms wantonly, Jing Chi stepped aside and began to count the silver, but this saw that the fat shopkeeper was dumbfounded, and secretly said, how can this person put so many things in his arms......
"Where did you come from?" After putting away all the wooden boxes, Su Yang said coldly to the fat shopkeeper again.
The fat shopkeeper was resigned, and after receiving the silver handed by Jing Chi, his mood was a little broader, and he pointed his finger in the inexplicable direction outside the door, and said: "The barren town is built according to the river, and the river water flows through the barren town called Jinhe, then this river is naturally Jinchuan, Jinchuan has many strange treasures, but it is also a dangerous beast, so as long as you are not afraid, the three clans will let you in, but after entering, you will bear the consequences......"
Su Yang nodded silently, thinking about what the fat shopkeeper said, and became a little interested in this so-called Three Clans Division.
Hearing Su Yang's doubts, the fat shopkeeper immediately explained: "The Three Clans Division is an institution specially set up by the three major families in the barren town to govern Jinchuan. ”
Su Yang understood, but this so-called Three Clans Division, wasn't it really set up because none of the three major families wanted to let go of Jinchuan?
Su Yang felt a little interesting, it seemed that the harmony on the surface of the barren town, inside, there were indeed a lot of undercurrents.
After leaving the Meridian Garden, Su Yang and the others went to the ready-to-wear shop next door to get a few black coats, put them on, and immediately made the two feel a lot more comfortable, and rarely threw strange eyes at the two.
Leaving the street that had come to an end, I passed through a few laneways to a square in a deserted town, where the bustling crowd of pedestrians filled the entire outer road of the square, making the shops and street stalls even more lively.
There is always an endless stream of customers selling lanterns and flatbreads, which makes those stall owners feel good.
Often at this time, the beggars around can also get an extra piece of silver or a piece of flatbread.
Everyone's faces were filled with excitement, and the temperature was no longer so cold.
It's just that Jing Chi has always had a question in his heart, that is, why did the eldest brother buy so many sword hilt jades for sacrificial refining artifacts, and it was too early to prepare for sacrificial refining artifacts now.
But since Su Yang didn't say anything, Jing Chi didn't ask anymore.
As for Su Yang, after all, he can't say that it is used to cultivate the formation of the Eastern Barbarians, right?
Although Jing Chi is his brother, it is always better to have one less thing than one more thing.
