Chapter 120: Found
The final result proved that Wang Meng's efforts were not in vain, and four of the ten rough stones he bought contained jade.
These four pieces of Jade King changed hands and sold for nearly 100,000 yuan!
In a good mood, Wang Meng took Ru Xue to the restaurant for a good meal at noon, and continued to look for the Cloud Swallowing Stone in the afternoon.
During this period, Bai Yanli called once, saying that she would go back later and was discussing cooperation with others.
This afternoon, Wang Meng visited dozens of jade shops, but none of them found the cloud-swallowing stone he wanted.
While strolling, I unconsciously came to a grocery market.
"Where is this?" Wang Meng was stunned for a moment, and when he looked around, there were all kinds of small merchants and vendors on both sides of the street, selling everything.
The sanitation here is not very good, there is some garbage everywhere on the ground, and there are no decent jade shops on both sides, so it feels like two different worlds from the place I went before.
"How did I get here?" Wang Meng felt a little funny, he just walked away, and he came here unconsciously.
What's even more ridiculous is that he can't even remember the way he came!
But don't be afraid, there is Ru Xue next to her, and Ru Xue clearly remembers the way back. Even if Ru Xue doesn't remember, it doesn't matter, if you have the money to take a taxi, you can go anywhere!
Now that you're here, let's take a stroll!
This reminds Wang Meng of the second-hand market near his bungalow, which has nothing of value, but a large number of customers.
In this way, Wang Meng walked around for more than an hour, bought some local gadgets as souvenirs, and was about to go back, but was attracted by an inconspicuous place not far away.
Next to a dilapidated billboard, there is a man in his twenties, who is sitting on a flat pole and looking blankly at the passers-by.
On the ground in front of the man lay several newspapers, on which were placed several stones, and on the stones were labels with prices written on them.
"Sister Ghost, you said there is a Cloud Swallowing Stone there?" Wang Meng glanced at the ghost in surprise.
After searching for so long, he couldn't find the cloud swallowing stone he wanted, but he didn't expect it to appear in such a place, which surprised Wang Meng and felt a little incredible at the same time.
"Can't be wrong, it's definitely a cloud swallowing stone, and the quality should be good!" The ghost's eyes sparkled, and he had the expression of spotting his prey.
Wang Meng knew that ghosts would not be untargeted, and since he said so, he would not be wrong!
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Wang Meng put on a very flat expression and walked over to the man.
Seeing someone coming, the man raised his head, a hint of joy flashed in his blank eyes, and hurriedly stood up.
Wang Meng walked over and did not look at the stones, but observed the man in front of him. Dark-skinned, tall, short hair covered with dust, one arm drooping unnaturally, and the other hand scratched his hair to open his mouth to say something, but stopped.
Although Wang Meng doesn't know many people, he can also see that the man in front of him is very simple, and he shouldn't be doing business. The cramped expression is all written on his face, and there is no old cunning that a hawker should have.
Wang Meng looked at the man's drooping arm twice, if the judgment was not wrong, the man should be disabled, and that arm should have lost the consciousness of moving again!
"Excuse me, do you sell the stones here?" It was only at this moment that Wang Meng turned his attention to the local stones.
There were a lot of stones on the ground, and they were also very messy, and he didn't have the powerful sensing ability of a ghost, so if he wanted to find out which one was a cloud swallowing stone without using the silk sense realm, he really had to identify it carefully.
“…… Sell! The voice seemed to be squeezed out of his teeth, and the man looked at Wang Meng with a happy face.
He has been sitting here for a whole day today, and a few people have come to the stall, but they all shook their heads and left, and Wang Meng was the first to ask.
Wang Meng smiled lightly, knowing that this man was not good at words, so he didn't ask more, but began to rummage.
Of these stones on the ground, the most expensive one did not exceed a hundred, and Wang Meng picked up them there, like a very knowledgeable person, but in fact he was a serious rookie!
"Coward, you don't have to rummage, the Cloud Swallowing Stone is not in this pile of stones!" The ghost on the side reminded him with some impatience.
"Not in here?"
Wang Meng was a little surprised, originally he had planned to find out the Cloud Swallowing Stone without using the Silk Sense Realm just based on experience!
"The Swallowing Stone is there!" The ghost said, gesturing at the bamboo basket behind the man.
Wang Meng followed the ghost's fingers and looked over, and sure enough, he saw that there were still some stones in the bamboo basket.
"This big brother, can you show me what's in there!" Wang Meng pointed to the bamboo basket and said to the man.
The man nodded hurriedly, and with some clumsiness, the bamboo basket behind him was carried to Wang Meng's approach.
This time, Wang Meng didn't dare to hold it up, and hurriedly showed the "silk sense field".
"Found it, this is it!" Wang Meng was happy in his heart, but his face was silent.
Picking up the cloud swallowing stone, Wang Meng looked at it carefully. From the outside, this swallowing stone is not large, smaller than an egg, and the whole is dark gray, with many small white spots on it.
Although the appearance was very simple, Wang Meng could tell that this piece of Cloud Swallowing Stone was of high quality, and it was many times better than the Cloud Swallowing Stone he had purchased from Bai Yanli before!
"Big brother, how do you sell this stone?" Wang Meng didn't want to beat around the bush with this simple man, so he asked straight to the point.
The stones in the basket are not marked with prices as they are outside.
The man glanced at the stone in Wang Meng's hand, and replied directly without much thought: "Twenty! ”
Hearing the man's offer, Wang Meng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and felt worthless for this cloud swallowing stone.
Those thousands of jade stones are just a superficial appearance, and they are like dross compared to this cloud swallowing stone!
After paying, Wang Meng did not leave in a hurry, but chatted with this man.
Wang Meng was not satisfied with such a piece of cloud swallowing stone, if he could, he wanted to know where this man got this cloud swallowing stone?
Although the man was not good at talking, he was blunt about Wang Meng's question, all the stones here were quarried or picked up by him from the mountains, and after several months, he could not remember for a while which stones were obtained from which place.
Seeing that he couldn't ask for the information he wanted, Wang Meng chatted with the man elsewhere. Gradually, the man lost the restraint he had at the beginning, and he talked more.
Wang Meng realized that this man's name was Gu An, his parents died early, he was the eldest in the family, and there was a younger sister and a younger brother below......
