Chapter 195: Black Market (Medium)

Changning has been in and out of the black market more than once, but every time she is with her senior brother, every time she comes and goes in a hurry, she has never really visited the black market, this is the first time she has really visited the black market, and her interest is quite high. He Wanran only has the ghost fire and doesn't care much about anything else, she knows that Senior Brother Mu and Senior Sister Qin look at He'er very closely, and they are not as easy to talk as her senior brother, she guesses that He'er has never been to this kind of place, and she is very patient to accompany her to visit one stall after another, anyway, there is a lot of time.

In fact, the black market is not the best place to buy things, most of the monks who come here to buy and sell are aiming for forbidden items that will not be sold in the market, and even these items are real and fake, and whether you can find treasures depends on your personal eyesight. Of course, the so-called baby is also relative, and the really good baby cannot appear here. It's not that no one can pick up the black market, but the chances of this are extremely rare. Changning and He Wanran have never studied appraisal, but the two of them are usually used to seeing rare treasures, whether it is a good object or not, and the two of them can distinguish it with just a sweep of their eyes.

Changning is not interested in those vendors who sell magic weapons and elixirs, her favorite is the stall that sells all kinds of jade slips, the jade slips here are all jade slips left over from the so-called ancient cultivation, but most of them are imitations, and the beginning is all written in ancient languages, so it is necessary to make people confused before stopping. However, these tricks are of little use to Changning, she can understand the ancient sayings that appear here, and whether the content in them is valuable or not, she can know at a glance. She looked at four or five small vendors in a row, all of which were fakes, and she couldn't help but be interested, "Let's go." She knew that it would be difficult to find good things here, so she might as well buy the Nether Ghost Fire and go to Miaoyin Island, I heard that the scenery there is good.

He Wanran stepped forward and walked a few steps, looked somewhere, and said to Changning: "You come with me." "In the black market, the two don't call each other by their names.

Changning followed behind her, and the two walked to the other side of the black market, the black market is as its name suggests, the light is very dim, and you can't use your divine sense here, and half of the people in the black market are wearing black cloaks, and the vision is even more blurred, Changning can only vaguely see that there seems to be a stall surrounded by a bunch of people in the distance, "What's so lively there?" ”

"Most of the black market vendors here are fixed, but there will also be a few foreign vendors, all of whom claim to have just returned from the experience of a certain ancient cultivation cave mansion, and the things they put out are real or fake, and whether they can pick good things depends on their eyesight." He Wanran said, "If it's really from the Ancient Xiu Cave Mansion, how can we get a few ancient books, let's go there and have a look." She knew that He'er loved to read jade slips, and as long as she wasn't in continuous retreat, she would always see one or two jade slips every day.

"Okay." Changning nodded, not expecting too much in her heart, but when the two approached the stall, her evaluation of the vendor was higher. This vendor is quite exquisite, everything is placed quite neatly, compared to the gray objects on other stalls in the black market, the things here are very clean, Changning can't help but bow slightly, this is a little look.

The black market in the spiritual world had many similarities with the antique markets she used to visit, and almost every stall was dusty and dirty, as if it didn't reflect its ancient history. But the first lesson that Shen Yan taught his granddaughter to identify antiquities was that the last thing that could not be touched in the antique market was dirty things, and some of the old objects were only old and not dirty, even if they were newly unearthed antiquities, they would at most carry some soil. Nine out of ten dirty objects are fakes, and many of these dirty fakes are soaked out of the dung pit.

It is unlikely that a monk in the cultivation world would do such a disgusting antique, but most of the dirty things are fakes, which is definitely true. This stall owner can clean up his things so cleanly, obviously very confident in his things, it is estimated that there are really a few good things, even He Wanran looked at it with great interest.

There were a lot of monks watching things in the small stall, and the two of them didn't stand up, Changning turned his eyes around, pointed to a small wooden box and asked, "Can I take a look?" ”

The stall owner responded very happily, she picked up the wooden box and was not in a hurry to open it, but looked at it for a moment, the wooden box was carved with a few quaint lotus flowers, the carving was simple and ancient, a bit like the style of the late antiquity, the wooden box was dark in color and rough in texture, Changning knocked on the wooden box gently, the sound was dull, it was actually a god-nourishing wood. If it is really a sacred wood handed down from ancient times, this wooden box alone is worth a lot of money.

Changning opened the wooden box, inside was a string of beads made of seven soybean-sized wooden beads, Changning picked up the bead string and rubbed it one by one, put the bead string back into the wooden box, and asked the vendor: "Fellow Daoist, how to buy this?" ”

There are a lot of things on the vendors, and there are many monks who see them, but there are no people who really ask the price, and the stall owner is not very busy, Wen Yan glanced at the wooden box in Changning's hand and said: "This is a string of beads made of ten thousand years of peach heart, if you want it, exchange it for one or two pieces of hardware." ”

The common currency in the cultivation world is spirit beads and spirit stones, and most monks know how the spirit beads come out, so only some vendors on the black market who make money by setting up stalls will collect spirit beads, and most of the vendors only accept spirit stones. There are also some stall owners who are not short of spirit stones, they don't even accept spirit stones, and only accept barter, especially with all kinds of thunder beads and hardware essence, which are the most favored by them.

Thunder beads can directly resist the enemy, and the essence of hardware can refine flying swords, which are the two most used treasures in the cultivation world. It's just that the refining of thunder beads takes a lot of time, and the essence of hardware is the essence of gold, silver, copper, iron, and tin.

Changning raised his eyebrows slightly, one or two pieces of hardware for 10,000 years of peach wood beads, the asking price is a bit high, but it is not unacceptable, but the beads from this wooden box are not 10,000 years of peach wood beads, the outside of the wooden box is at least 10,000 years of cultivation of the god wood, the longer the cultivation of the god wood is more valuable, the more the spirit of the god of the 10,000 years ago Mo said that with one or two hardware of the essence of exchange, that is, with a pound of hardware of the exchange is worth it. She smiled and put down the wooden box, "This is a string of beads pressed with thousand-year-old peach wood powder, where is it worth one or two pieces of hardware?" At most, it's worth one or two stones. ”

"Fellow Daoist, aren't you messing around? How can there be a counteroffer so ruthlessly? The stall owner was dissatisfied.

"Aren't you also making random offers?" Changning pushed back with a word.

The stall owner said resolutely: "No! You're making a bargain! This is my first business, how can this be! ”

"One or two pieces of hardware, right? I want this thing! A crisp voice sounded, and a gold pill made of hardware bounced towards the stall owner, the stall owner raised his hand and pointed, and a ball of clear light blocked the gold pill in mid-air, and the gold pill spun around.

The stall owner said in a deep voice: "This fellow Daoist, you are so unruly. "The black market has always been a one-to-one rule, when one person bargains with the stall owner, others can't intervene, and they must wait for that person to give up that kind of thing before anyone else can intervene.

The person who came wore a cloak with exquisite and gorgeous work, the cloak was embroidered with exquisite lotus flowers, most of them were hidden in the mask, only revealing a beautiful chin, the man raised his chin slightly at Changning and said: "This fellow Daoist, since the price you are willing to pay is so far from the stall owner, why bother to speak?" ”

He Wanran frowned, and was about to speak, but Changning squeezed her hand, she put down the wooden box with a smile, "What this Taoist friend said is also right, the price I am willing to pay is too far from the stall owner, I won't buy it, you can do it." ”

He Wanran transmitted a message to Changning, "Who is this person, why is he so ignorant of the rules?" Do you want to teach her a lesson? ”

"No, you don't." Changning didn't bother to pay attention to the person who was about to receive a big lesson.

"Could it be that string of beads is really a 10,000-year-old peach?" He Wanran was surprised to see that the man seemed to think that the bead string, "Or is it made of other valuable wood?" ”

Changning glanced at her, "Did I read it wrong?" ”

He Wanran said clearly, "Could it be that there is something special about that wooden box?" ”

"That's right, that's the Ten Thousand Year Cultivation Divine Tree." Changning said casually.

"Then why are you making such a bargain?" He Wanran wondered why He'er knew the preciousness of the wooden box, and he still had to bargain like this? He'er is not a cheap and well-behaved person, the 10,000-year-old Shenmu is worth a lot of money, the person offered a tael of hardware essence, according to the He'er's temperament, the original price is not to say, and maybe even more subsidies are possible in private.

"Look on." Changning laughed, picking up leaks? There are so many leaks in the world that are easy to pick up.

Seeing that Changning voluntarily gave up, the stall owner was overjoyed, accepted the golden pill and weighed it, enough to have one or two or three dollars, he smiled and said to the cloak nun wearing lotus flowers: "The Tao is friendly and refreshing, this god-raising wood bead belongs to you." ”

The cloak nun was very pleased, bowed her head and was about to close the wooden box and take it away, but was stopped by the stall owner and said: "Daoyou, I am talking about the price of the beads, not the price of the wooden box, the wooden box should be calculated separately, of course, if you like this wooden box, give me a high-grade flying sword and you can exchange it, this is a 10,000-year-old god-raising wood." ”

The stall owner's words made the cloak nun stunned, "Hahaha-" A muffled laugh rang out all around, "It seems that another one wants to pick up the leak and be tricked." ”

"That's right! Sure enough, there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the sky! ”

Everyone sighed that it was not uncommon for cloak nuns to be repaired, and many stall owners would put a few valuable things in an inconspicuous place on the stall to tempt buyers to buy other worthless things. When the buyer offered to take away such valuable things by the way, he found out that the seller had already known the value of those things, and was waiting for the stupid fat sheep to take the bait, and eighty percent of the income of the black market vendors came from these stupid fat sheep.

He Wanran couldn't help but look at Changning, and Changning explained: "Didn't the stall owner say the price of the beads at the beginning? He never said how much the wooden box was worth. "She has followed Ah Weng in the antique market since she was a child, and she doesn't know how many such tricks she has seen, so of course she won't be fooled. Before the counteroffer was also to find an excuse not to want this thing, antiques have a rule is to ask the price, you must bargain, you can't say no right away, want to come to the black market also have this rule. It's just that even if other stall owners cheat people, they only cheat a small amount of money, and they won't make people lose too much, and the bitter owners should spend money to buy a lesson, and they won't do more entanglement. And this stall owner is actually asking for a sky-high price, could it be that he has nothing to rely on?
