Chapter 109: Reorganization of the Eighteen Arhats
Luo Ding walked in a small alley full of all kinds of magic weapons, stopping from time to time to take a look, and then moved on to another stall. He was carrying a small bag with a few small leaks he had just picked up.
Since the transformation of Wei Lan's feng shui pattern, Luo Ding has been busy with another thing, in addition to continuing to find a suitable shop, another thing is to prepare all kinds of magic weapons for the store he is about to open. So during this period of time, he wandered in the streets and alleys of Shenning City every day, digging for all kinds of magic weapons, and after a few days, he also picked up a lot of leaks, although there were no good things like copper coins and copper gourds, but he got a few things that were passable.
"Suzu ......"
Luo Ding, who was picking up something at a stall, suddenly rang his mobile phone, took it out and took a look, and found that it was Shi Xinran.
"Miss Shi, hello."
Luo Ding said with a smile as he continued to fiddle with the things on the stall.
"Luo Ding, didn't I ask you to call me that day, why hasn't you called me after so long?" Shi Xinran's very distinctive voice came from the phone.
"This ...... I've been too busy lately. Shi Xinran's straightforwardness made Luo Ding unable to react, and in the end he had to find such an excuse that even he felt quite clumsy.
"Hmph, forget it, don't talk about you, at eleven o'clock tonight, go to Matou Mountain in Shenning City, I'll wait for you there."
After Shi Xinran finished speaking, he didn't care whether Luo Ding agreed or not, he hung up the phone as soon as he held the phone, Luo Ding shook his head, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, it was the first time he had met a girl with a surname like Shi Xinran.
"Eleven o'clock in the evening? To Matou Mountain? ”
Although I don't know where Matou Mountain is for the time being, but it should be relatively remote when I hear this name, thinking of this, Luo Ding's heart can't help but heat up, and he recalls the words "buy one get one free" that Shi Xinran said before leaving.
"Did she ask me out for a tryst?" Luo Ding couldn't help pinching his chin, shook his head, and began to yy, and couldn't help but lose his mind for a while, you must know that in addition to Shi Xinran, a tall and beautiful woman with a surname, there is also Xiao Le who has a childlike face but a devilish figure...... Shaking his head fiercely, Luo Ding drove these thoughts out of his mind and returned to reality.
"Well, since we're dating tonight, this is the first time we've met, so I have to buy a small gift." Luo Ding's eyes scanned around, calculating what would be more appropriate to buy.
"Hey, that shop seems to sell bracelets, go check it out."
The place where Luo Ding is now is actually a tourist area in Shenning City, where the stalls sell all kinds of souvenirs, and most people will think that there are no good things in such a place, but Luo Ding does not think so.
The formation of the aura of the magic weapon has a certain accidental surname, maybe an inadvertent knife can create a magic weapon with an aura, but it is undeniable that there is not much chance of finding good things in this kind of situation.
However, for ordinary people, searching for things in this kind of place is like looking for a needle in the sea, but it is not too difficult for Luo Ding, who has special abilities, so he will come to this kind of place.
"Boss, what is the texture of your bracelet?"
Luo Ding walked to the stall and asked as he picked up the things on it and looked at it. The so-called bracelet is a string of things that are worn on the hand or played with in the hand, and generally refers to a bracelet made of various things.
"The olive pit, also known as the green fruit, is the name that can be eaten when the olive fruit is still green." When the boss saw that business came to the door, he immediately greeted him and said with a smile.
In fact, the olive is also known as the fruit of advice, because it tastes astringent at the beginning, but after chewing for a long time, it is sweet and delicious, and the aftertaste is endless, so it is used as a metaphor for the words of advice.
Luo Ding picked up a few strings of bracelets and looked at them, and found that the workmanship was relatively fine, and he knew that he might be able to find a few things that were okay on such a stall. So he nodded and said, "You are the bracelet of the Eighteen Arhats, right?" ”
The Eighteen Arhats refer to the eighteen Arhats who live in the world forever and uphold the Dharma in Buddhist legends, in fact, they refer to the Sixteen Arhats and the Two Venerables, who are all disciples of Shakyamuni, symbolizing goodness, auspiciousness and good luck, so the statues of the Eighteen Arhats are engraved on various materials to wear, which can bring good luck to the match.
"Yes, it is the eighteen Arhats, you can go to disasters to avoid evil, you pick two strings?" The smile on the boss's face grew even stronger.
"How do you sell it?" Luo Ding's entire stall is piled up with such bracelets, and it seems that there must be hundreds.
"It's not expensive, 50 a piece."
Luo Ding stopped, pointed to his nose, and said to the boss with a smile: "Boss, do you think I look like I'm from out of town?" ”
This kind of sightseeing area is mostly made of people who come to Shenning City to play, and the things sold to outsiders are naturally more expensive. The meaning of Luo Ding's words is obvious, that is, don't treat me as one of those people who come here to play, and be careful when you pay such a price, Lao Tzu will turn around and leave.
The boss smiled and said, "Okay, I don't think you look like it, in this way, if you pick 10 strings, I will count you as 10 yuan for each string, and you can't be less." I think you can also see that the bracelets on my stall are much finer than those on other stalls. ”
"I choose 20 strings, 8 pieces a string." Luo Ding said in return.
"Okay, no problem."
Half an hour later, looking at the 20 strings of eighteen Arhat bracelets selected by Luo Ding, the stall owner's face turned green, and Luo Ding's heart was happy, the 20 strings of eighteen Arhat bracelets he picked out were the best 20 strings in the entire stall.
"What the hell, there are hundreds of strings here, your eyes are so poisonous?" The boss muttered, the intestines in his heart were knotted, and it hurt terribly, but it was useless to regret it at this time.
"Boss, how about giving me a red rope?" Luo Ding said with a smile as he paid.
"If you don't send it, a red rope is 40 yuan, exactly 200." The stall owner said angrily.
"No problem." Luo Ding, who had already taken advantage of the sky, didn't say anything anymore, nodded in agreement.
Luo Ding put 20 strings of eighteen Arhat bracelets on the wrist of his right hand, feeling the aura coming from above, and he was really happy in his heart. These 20 strings of things are not very good, but they can still sell for thousands of dollars in ordinary stores.
I found a coffee shop, and after ordering a cup of coffee, I put 20 strings of bracelets on the table, and used scissors borrowed from the coffee shop to cut all 20 strings of bracelets, and the entire table was scattered with 360 olive cores.
Luo Ding calmed down and began to pick up the olive pits one by one, carefully sensing the aura coming from above. Although the eighteen Arhat bracelets carved from these 20 strings of olive kernels all have an aura, the aura strength of each Arhat on each string is different, some are strong and some are weak, what Luo Ding has to do now is to select the strongest eighteen from them, and then assemble them into a new string of eighteen Arhat bracelets.
Luo Ding, who was preoccupied, didn't realize how strange his behavior was in Starbucks, and had already remembered the attention of many people.
