Chapter Eighty-Three: The Man on the Cliff
The top of the mountain is quiet, a far cry from the thriving town at the foot of the mountain, which was once unknown, but under certain historical-specific conditions, the city at the foot of the hill became such a prosperous place overnight.
And this mountain, which is accompanied by it, has gone in another direction at the turning point of history, and has maintained its original appearance to this day.
Its quietness, with its cleansing tranquility, is as long as ever.
Tang Jingyun did not focus on the back of the man sitting on the edge of the cliff, but silently felt such an environment, and suddenly felt a kind of comfort vented in her heart, leaving the prosperous area, and her mood relaxed inexplicably.
"Don't you want to tell me to leave such a dangerous place?" A voice suddenly rang out.
This voice was a little hoarse and cold, like an ice knife in four or nine days, scraping and hurting.
Tang Jingyun raised her eyes in surprise, and when she heard the sound, she saw that the man who was sitting on the edge of the cliff with his back to her turned his attention and was looking at it seriously.
Man, no, it is not an exaggeration to call him a big boy, he does not look very old at all, his face is still a little immature, and there is a circle of hairs on his lips, which shows his identity as a young man, but he has a pair of very bright eyes, and a pair of slightly raised eyebrows, like a pair of flying wings, which makes his whole face look extremely delicate.
And his thin lips were pursed at this time, and his face was stretched with the sharpness of an adult.
Tang Jingyun smiled slightly in her heart, she really looked like a young man like a wolf, like a cub waving her claws, and in time, she would definitely be able to grow into a dangerous wolf king.
"Why did I tell you to get out of here?" Tang Jingyun asked with a smile.
"Shouldn't the average person let me get out of here when they see me sitting in such a dangerous place? What if I jump? ”
"This shows that I am not an ordinary person, and besides, will you jump down and do anything about me? It's so difficult for me to survive in such a difficult world, where can I have time to care about others? If you really have the courage, jumping off is not a relief, and it will be a hundred times. “
Tang Jingyun put her hands in her pockets, smiled faintly, her phoenix eyes narrowed, and the corners of her mouth were a little cold and cold, looking ruthless and indifferent.
"You're such an interesting person." The big boy suddenly laughed, and the coldness on his body suddenly dissipated, revealing the youthfulness that only people of this age have, "Hello, my name is Anping." ”
"Hello, my name is Tang Jingyun." Tang Jingyun smiled faintly.
The two talked in Chinese, Tang Jingyun was a little surprised, this young man who claimed to be Anping, spoke Mandarin is Fei Cang's standard, "You speak good Mandarin." ”
An Ping laughed, but there was a bit of depth in his eyes, "My father is a person who likes Chinese culture very much, so I also tried hard to please him, ......but unfortunately, he still doesn't like me."
Tang Jingyun quieted down when she heard this, and didn't ask, everyone will have their own story, why shouldn't she? suddenly remembered her former self, in order to please Tang Zhiqian and Old Man Tang, why didn't she do anything that could please them? Even Tang Zhiqian has developed a habit of drinking tea and eating, and it is clear. It's just that in the end, it's just a joke.
"Don't care." Tang Jingyun walked to the side and picked a delicate wildflower among the blooming flowers, and said to the big boy, "Is this flower blooming well?" No one has watered and carefully cultivated it, and it does not still bloom so beautifully. Wildflowers are not necessarily the ones that are carefully tended in the garden, but they are more able to withstand the ravages of wind and rain, are they? ”
A slight smile appeared on An Ping's face, "Thank you, it's the first time I've heard someone comfort me like this, instead of letting me continue to make compromises to please my father." ”
Tang Jingyun walked to Anping's side with the flowers, sat on his side, and learned him to swing his two feet on the cliff, "No thanks, there is some truth, someone will sue you later." ”
Just like this cloudy sky, this is a very common thing, Tang Jingyun herself slowly understood it later, but at that time, she no longer had the need to wake up. Seeing this big boy who was very similar to her, she rarely told him kindly.
Just looking at the thin and lonely back, she thought for a moment that this was her former self, always looking for a quiet corner after being injured, silently licking her wounds, and then reflecting on her growth.
"You're a good guy." The young man's eyebrows were raised, and a pair of black eyes looked at Tang Jingyun seriously, looking very simple, like a pool of clear spring water.
Of course, Tang Jingyun knew that this was just his disguise.
"Hehe, it's the first time I've been called a good person," a smile flashed on Tang Jingyun's face, "In fact, I'm not a good person." ”
An Ping looked at Tang Jingyun carefully, shook his head with a smile, "No, you are, what does other people's evaluation have to do with me?" I only care about what I think of me. ”
Tang Jingyun didn't expect An Ping to say such a thing, she laughed when she heard this, and looked at the empty ground quietly, as long as she lowered her head, she could see the thrilling scene.
"You say, if there is a father who is very irresponsible and wants to exchange the life of one of his sons for the life of another son, then should that innocent son take revenge?" An Ping tilted his head sideways and asked Tang Jingyun with a smile.
Tang Jingyun thought for a while and said, "Naturally, I want to take revenge." ”
"What about the father-killer?"
“…… That depends on the son's hatred of his father. If you don't want to leave a legacy behind, then kill him. If you can make sure that he is always in the palm of your hand, you can also take away what he values most, and then watch the rest of his life pass in pain, life is better than death. Tang Jingyun said indifferently.
At this time, her eyes drooped slightly, and the look in her eyes was removed, looking cold and abnormal, but with a poignant and thrilling charm.
"Hahaha......" An Ping suddenly laughed, "Tang Jingyun, I have made up your friend!" ”
Tang Jingyun smiled and shook her head, "It's okay to make friends, as long as you don't involve me in any mess." With that, she stood up, patted the mud on her buttocks, and stretched out one and handed it to An Ping, who was still sitting, "Get up, it's windy, it's a little cold here." ”
An Ping looked at the hand in surprise, laughed, reached out to hold Tang Jingyun's hand and stood up, and patted the dust on his body, "Yes, it's windy." ”
The two of them began to walk down the mountain one after the other, both of them remained silent rarely, at the foot of the mountain, Tang Jingyun walked in a direction, waved his hand with his back to An Ping, "Young man, I wish you a good luck." ”
A smile flashed on An Ping's face, and he looked at the back of the girl leaving and muttered, "Obviously, I'm not older than me, old-fashioned...... Tang Jingyun...... It's really interesting......"
Tang Jingyun didn't take this matter to heart, after all, for her, she was just a passer-by in Myanmar, and she only came here for the Jade Gongpan, and this was just a hurried stop in her life.
――
The next day was the day when the Jade Public Market opened, Bai Yiqing and the others took the first step, and Tang Jingyun went out half an hour slowly.
Just as she walked on the street, she clearly felt that the atmosphere here was not quite right from yesterday, especially when she saw a soldier walking on the street with a gun and interrogating foreigners.
Tang Jingyun frowned, and immediately raised her vigilance, a little unsure what happened to the Myanmar government recently, is it because of this jade public market? But you don't need such a big battle!
On the short road from the hotel to the Jade Gongpan, Tang Jingyun was interrogated no less than three times, and she had to show her passport every time.
When Tang Jingyun walked into the place where the jade public market was held, he saw Bai Yiqing talking with a group of people in suits and leather shoes, Bai Yiqing saw Tang Jingyun coming, and his face suddenly smiled, "Lost company, lost company, our host has arrived, let's talk another day." ”
In the curious eyes of everyone, he walked in front of Tang Jingyun.
The people who chatted just now all knew the identity of Bai Yiqing, the person in charge of the Jade Residence, which was in the limelight in the jade world, and his owner was actually just such a girl?!
But then thinking of the mysterious identity of this woman, many people have speculated whether it is a strong background, but no one is too contemptuous, can develop the jade house in a short period of time, and the latecomer is on top, and several major jewelry companies in Kyoto are parallel, it must not be a simple character!
Tang Jingyun nodded politely at the people there, and asked Bai Yiqing in a low voice about the obviously different atmosphere on the street today, Bai Yiqing also shook his head and said that he didn't know, Tang Jingyun simply didn't care, and went straight to pick wool.
This jadeite public market is divided into three parts, one part is to buy directly, the other part is to use the method of hidden bidding, and finally there is a part of the auction on the last day.
The first six days are used for the first two parts, and there will be an auction link until the last day.
For Tang Jingyun, who has a perspective ability, this is tantamount to a wolf entering a flock, often only need to glance at it to determine whether there is jade in the wool, and whether the finished product is good or bad, which has caused an extremely strange phenomenon. Often as long as Tang Jingyun stood on the edge of the wool and looked at it casually, she would shake her head or nod at Bai Yiqing, if she shook her head, Bai Yiqing would recruit the staff and buy it without hesitation.
Such a heroic gesture has surprised many people, and many people have inquired about it, and the signboard of Jade House has been constantly mentioned, which has greatly improved its popularity.
"Jingyun, are you here too?" A voice of slight surprise came.
