Chapter Seventy-Four: Searching for Fish

Aquarium Market

"Hey little brother, look at how this fish is. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" A vendor shouted at Liu Xiaole while holding instant noodles.

Liu Xiaole stopped, glanced at the "crane top red" in the wooden basin and shook his head, stalling goods.

The boss said: "What a young man, I fell in love with the cheap for you"

Looking at the boss's shining eyes, Liu Xiaole said: "15 a pair? ”

Poof~~~~, the vendor spit a whole mouthful of instant noodle soup into the basin.

The boss cleaned up and said, "You're really good at laughing." Then he pointed to the head tumor and said, "You look at the color." ”

Liu Xiaole didn't want to talk to him, and threw a disdainful look at him, turned his head and left, just this way, if it weren't for the container, there would be someone to bargain with him until the dark.

I saw a few more, what "Wang Zi Tiger Head", "Cinnabar Eye Blister", "Orange Lion Head", and so on a lot of kinds, shouting is also good, but the quality is not good, the stall is the stall, the purchase back is not enough for the road.

When Liu Xiaole lost confidence and was about to find the next position, a store that operated Lanshou attracted his attention, hey~~ This Heng City is famous for operating the quintessential palace goldfish, why is there an extra foreigner here.

There was no one in the store, Liu Xiaole took care of himself and walked around a few times, but the fish in the exhibition tank made Liu Xiaole improvise, and returned disappointed, whether it is Guoshou, Rishou or Taishou, it is too ordinary, just as Liu Xiaole was about to leave, the boss came back, and saw that some guests said enthusiastically: "Yo, little brother, look at the fish." ”

"Just take a look." Liu Xiaole replied with mediocre interest.

Liu Xiaole's age is just a casual look, but the boss is quite reasonable, "Little brother, my fish is the highest quality of the whole flower." You're looking high enough. ”

"The highest?" Liu Xiaole asked in a skeptical tone.

Then he said, "If you really have something, take it out." ”

I heard that the boss's eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and he secretly said that this kid might be an expert.

Seeing the boss's speech, Liu Xiaole continued to walk out the door.

The boss stopped Liu Xiaole and pointed to the Zhan Cylinder Road not far away, "Brother, look at this birthday~!" ”

Indeed, that longevity is the best here, and Liu Xiaole also paid attention to it, but it was limited to this room, in the house, and he was taller. Looking at the price of 1,000 yuan, Liu Xiaole thought of the Arowana fish merchant in Hangzhou City, and scoffed.

Looking at the tail of the longevity, Liu Xiaole put on a look of no interest and said, "Forget it." "Then keep walking outside.

Liu Xiaole insisted on leaving, but the boss seemed very unwilling, and continued: "Little brother, I see that you also know fish, otherwise, you can take a look again, and I will give you a cheaper price." ”

Looking at it? Just kidding, on the point of false pricing, this store was vetoed by Liu Xiaole, and now it is a big day, Liu Xiaole is also disdainful and will never look back.

Before the words fell, an old man wearing a Tang costume, pale temples, and a long beard entered the store in a hurry.

When the boss saw this, he immediately greeted him and said respectfully: "Yo, Boss Tian is not far away when he comes." ”

Tian Lao smiled: "Why Boss Wang, is the business okay?" ”

When Boss Wang heard this, he smiled bitterly and said: "It's really hard to do business now, and there are too few high-end fish here," and then pointed at Liu Xiaole and said, "Look, this guest officer is picking on my fish here." ”

Hearing that Liu Xiaole frowned, he scolded secretly, what do you call me picky, you don't fight yourself, and you still pour dirty water on me?

Liu Xiaole wanted to theorize, but when he looked back, he didn't buy it anyway, and old age and death were not foreign, so why bother with that tongue.

Tian Lao looked at Liu Xiaole and asked with interest: "Young man, you said that his fish is not of high grade, can you tell me about it?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Xiaole's fire came up all of a sudden, it's endless today, right? It's just a fish, you still hire a childcare, you cost so much, isn't it good to buy and sell directly? It seems that if you don't explain it today, you will definitely not be able to get out.

Then he said in an unkind tone, "Cheng, don't you want to find the root of the matter?" I'm better to be respectful, I'll tell you about this fish~! ”

Tian Lao didn't get angry, and made a gesture of please.

Liu Xiaole pointed to the Lan Shou with a price of 1,000 and said: "I'll just talk about this Japanese Lan Shou, which is also strongly promoted by this boss." ”

As we all know, the most important thing about the Japanese Lanshou is the balanced overall beauty, looking down on a pair of prominent and full "snouts", as well as sarcoma developed "scarf", "lower sideburns" and "gill cover".

Hearing this, Tian Lao's eyebrows were raised, and Boss Wang's face was also dark, and he couldn't imagine that he was really an expert.

Liu Xiaole continued: "The problem of this fish is that the 'snout' is slightly suffocated, and the reason why this defect is not easy to find is because this fish has a relatively perfect 'scarf', 'lower temples' and 'gill cover' to cover up its own defects. ”

Tian Lao nodded slightly when he heard this, and Boss Wang's face became darker and darker.

Liu Xiaole didn't care about the boss's expression, he rushed to tear it up, and now he was going to say it clearly, clearly, it's not that Lao Tzu is cheap, it's that you are pushing too hard, and continued: "And the Lanshou goldfish side view should be overall beautiful, from the head to the back, waist, tail tube, and tail fin, strung together into a beautiful line." ”

Speaking of this, Tian Lao interrupted: "Doesn't this fish fully meet the conditions you described?" ”

Liu Xiaole smiled and said: "I have to say that the performance of this fish in the lines is still remarkable, but there is a slight "convex chest" phenomenon in the abdomen, although it is difficult to detect, but it cannot escape the eyes of professional players." ”

Tian Lao continued to nod with satisfaction when he heard this.

After a faceless evaluation, Liu Xiaole finally added: "In terms of color, you can barely be regarded as an all-red "plain red". It can be said that this fish is a superb for those who do not know how to trade, but it is worthless for veteran players. ”

"That's all I say, it's a joke about not having the right to do it."

I heard that Boss Wang hung his head and said: "Hey, I have met a master today, brother, you can make a price, this fish will be dealt with for you." ”

Liu Xiaole said: "As I said, this fish has no collection value for me, but I hope that the boss can clearly mark the price." ”

Boss Wang bowed his head and said nothing, and casually removed the sign with a price of 1000.

Boss Wang is really repentant now, and his heart said that this is not owed, why provoke him.

Tian Lao asked Liu Xiaole again: "Boy, looking at your age, it doesn't look like you specialize in fish." ”

Liu Xiaole replied out of politeness: "You have won the award, and your theoretical knowledge is not elegant." ”

Tian Lao said: "It's not easy, I can tell you, this fish is right, and when this fish came new, I also looked away, or a few of my friends greeted me, and today is what I said." ”

It doesn't matter to me if you don't walk away, what has to do with me is that you have lost too much time, Liu Xiaole said: "It's not too early, I'm leaving." "Then turn around and leave.

Before he stepped out of the door, he was stopped by Boss Wang behind him: "Little brother, please stay." ”

I'll strangle it, Liu Xiaole's face suddenly darkened, this is really endless~! It seems that there is no blood in the paralyzed now, and it must not work.

Liu Xiaole promised that if either of the two of them was abandoning a word, Liu Xiaole would take the old thing in front of him and pull this girl's beard on the spot, so that this old thing could feel a roller coaster in his twilight years.

Sure enough, Boss Wang spoke again, don't blame Lao Tzu for being ruthless, but before his hand went out, he was suffocated by Boss Wang's words, "Don't you want to collect goldfish, this old man has it at home." ”

Hearing the fish, Liu Xiaole hurriedly put away the hand that had not yet been played, slowly turned his head, his attitude changed by more than 1,800 degrees, and said to Tian Lao with a smile: "You really have it?" ”

Tian Lao nodded calmly, which was a tacit acquiescence.

The reason why Tian Lao can answer so calmly now is because he doesn't know what Boss Wang said if he said the wrong thing, what he would face.

Boss Wang continued to add: "Let me introduce you to you, this is the president of the Goldfish Association, Tian Wei, Tian Lao. ”

The name Tian Wei Liu Xiaole is not unfamiliar, and even a little piercing, his voice is indispensable in many news magazines, Taishan Beidou in the goldfish world, highly respected, I didn't expect to see it alive today.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaole's back was cold, and he sweated and came down, if he didn't control it for a while or Boss Wang said the answer he didn't want, it is estimated that tomorrow's news called "Chairman Tian Wei was molested by a quirk man in Heng City a few days ago" will be in the newspaper.

Then he glanced at Boss Wang unhappily, paralyzed, you didn't introduce it earlier, so I almost played myself to death, and then immediately bowed respectfully and apologized: "Tian Lao is really sorry, I just offended." ”

Tian Lao said with a smile: "There is a specialization in the art industry, there is a sequence of hearing the Tao, and the future is terrifying." ”

Liu Xiaole said: "You have it." ”

Liu Xiaole respectfully sat Tian Lao on the stool, and he was not in a hurry to leave, after all, Tian Lao is the Taishan Beidou of the goldfish world, living to learn from all the time, such an opportunity is hard to find, and the desire to learn once again occupies his brain.

Through talking, Tian Lao found that Liu Xiaole's attainments in the water tribe were very deep, and his modest and respectful attitude made Tian Lao nod his head and appreciate it.

While speaking, Boss Wang joked: "I see Xiaole's attainments, don't you always want to accept a closed disciple, Tian Lao?" ”

Hearing that Tian Lao's eyebrows were raised, he was really tempted, people said that "three years old to see the old" Tian Lao lived his life, and he knew too many people, although it was the first time they met, Liu Xiaole gave him a different feeling at a glance.

Being able to worship under the Taishan Beidou in the national aquarium world, Liu Xiaole doesn't want to, but this master is not indiscriminate, he has formally established a master-apprentice relationship with Liu Yuanshan, and until now he still often asks for advice.

Seeing that Liu Xiaole was embarrassed, Tian Lao smiled slightly and asked, "Xiaole, may I ask who is worshipping under whom?" ”

Unexpectedly, Tian Lao could see his thoughts and give himself a step in time, so Liu Xiaole replied: "Liu Lao, Liu Yuanshan." ”

Tian Lao laughed when he heard this: "Liu Yuanshan, this old thing, a famous teacher is a high apprentice." ”

"You have won the award, the master is a famous teacher, I don't care about it here."

Boss Wang said: "Excessive modesty is pride. ”

In a few words, Tian Lao not only did not get angry because of Liu Xiaole's refusal, but appreciated Liu Xiaole even more.

Seeing that the time was not early, Tian Lao said to Boss Wang: "Don't hide it, go to your house in a while and pick a few eye-catching ones for Xiaole." ”

When Boss Wang heard this, his face was embarrassed, but he still agreed very reluctantly.

Boss Wang's house

Don't look at Boss Wang's shop, but there is a hole in this house, and there are complete varieties in the exhibition tank, especially a few "unicorns", "tiger skins", and "five flowers", not to mention the best products.

There are also other categories of goldfish, and what surprised Liu Xiaole the most was that there was a "Twelve Red~!"

Liu Xiaole hurriedly ran over, took a look, and praised again and again, "Brother Wang, this fish is good." ”

"Hey, what's good, there's no way to compare with Tian Lao, this is barely the twelve red dragon eyes, and the twelve red butterfly tails on Tian Lao's side are called the best."

After that, he continued: "Xiaole, which one do you like, I can't bear to cut my love and let you have one." ”

Liu Xiaole thanked him and began to look for his own target, these twelve red dragon eyes must not be able to take other people's, so he started the idea of Lan Shouyu.

Soon, Liu Xiaole Qilin Lanshou stopped in front of the exhibition cylinder, and when he saw that Boss Wang was startled, he immediately ran over to block the exhibition cylinder, "This one doesn't work, this one doesn't work." ”

Tian Lao on the side smiled and said: "I said Xiaole, you are really discerning, he just made you take a fancy to such a masterpiece." ”

Liu Xiaole smiled and said, "Brother Wang, you can make a price." ”

Boss Wang's head shook like a rattle, "No, no, this really doesn't work, it's not about money." ”

Seeing that Boss Wang was not selling, Liu Xiaole was not strong, and turned to another fish tank of Rishou, but Boss Wang's face was still ugly, and it didn't seem that he wanted to sell it very much, so Liu Xiaole could only continue to transfer.

Several times in a row, it seems that Boss Wang has no intention of selling, this is difficult for Liu Xiaole, he can't go to Twelve Red to try, but the result is obvious, not for sale.

Seeing this, Tian Lao smiled and said: "That's it, this kid is reluctant to let go of his old book, today I will have a blood, let this kid go." ”

Hearing that Boss Wang, who was extremely nervous, immediately smiled and said: "Yes, yes, Tian Lao is the best everywhere." ”

Liu Xiaole is now begging for fish and said, "Then it's bothering." ”

Several people drove to a courtyard house outside the suburbs, surrounded by red flowers and willow green, the lake lingers, and the antique is more tranquil and quiet, giving people a sense of paradise and winding paths.

Open the courtyard door, a drainage tank in the middle of the yard attracted Liu Xiaole, at a glance, it was full of drifting goldfish, such a traditional breeding method Liu Xiaole has only seen in the TV series, and today it is a long experience.

Outside the door is traditional breeding, inside the door is indeed a very modern atmosphere of the exhibition tank equipment, the degree of professionalism, so that Liu Xiaole, a new new human being, is a little ashamed, inside and outside the house seems to be so distinct.

Liu Xiaole looked at the "Ink Dragon Eye", "Panda", "Long-tailed Crane Top Red", "Five-Flower Ball Pearl", "Ink Butterfly Tail" and other superb goldfish in the exhibition tank, and his saliva was about to flow out. Boss Wang, who was standing on the side, looked at his excited face, obviously, he didn't come often, and Tian Lao brought himself when he met for the first time, and the degree of attention can be seen.

Looking at the goldfish in the fish tank, Liu Xiaole asked carefully: "Tian Lao, can I take any of them?" ”

Tian Lao nodded with a smile.

Of course, Liu Xiaole knows the value of these fish, and it is impossible to be too beautiful and love-grabbing, so he finally took a superb longevity, a unicorn, a cinnabar eye blister, and a long-tailed crane and stopped it.

Tian Lao heard and said, "Why don't you choose a few more?" ”

"No, I've already made you bear to cut your love."

Then he said, "You can make an offer." ”

Tian Lao just smiled and shook his head and said: "Fish is priceless, only in the level of people's hearts, these few you have selected show that you have fate, and you don't take a penny." ”

Boss Wang immediately said unhappily: "Old Tian, you are too partial." ”

Liu Xiaole hurriedly said: "This is not good, these fish will cost tens of thousands of yuan, and I can't make it cheap." ”

Tian Lao stretched his beard and smiled: "Take it away, I'll do you a favor first, but my favor is not in vain." ”

Hearing the help, Liu Xiaole calmed down a little, after all, if these fish fields insisted on not wanting money, he would never be able to take it, and in the end, the search for fish would definitely be in vain.

"Tian Lao, you say."

Tian Lao said with regret: "The only regret in my life is that I don't have a vermilion top purple robe, and when you encounter it in the future, you can notify me as soon as possible or give it to me first." ”

Hearing the Zhuding Violet Robe Liu Xiaole's heart sank suddenly, the Zhuding Violet Robe is a fighter among the goldfish, the nature is similar to the platinum Arowana in the Arowana, the price was more than 600,000 many years ago, setting the highest goldfish price in history, and this fish is not easy to see on the market, not to mention the price.

And Tian Lao made this kind of request, and his promise was nothing more than tearing up a blank check.

Liu Xiaole just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Tian Lao: "Don't say it's okay first, just do your best." ”

It's all said and done, and Liu Xiaole also needs these fish very much, so Liu Xiaole didn't refuse, and said, "Don't worry, Tian Lao, I will definitely pay attention to it." ”

Tian Lao nodded with satisfaction, seeing that the time was not early, Liu Xiaole retired, and before leaving, Tian Lao specially mentioned the goldfish expo in Fu City, and this expo was also mentioned to him in Malaysia at that time.

"Okay, Tian Lao, I will definitely go when I have time."

"Well, that's good, it's not too early to go back."

This time, Liu Xiaole has gained a lot, and he has obtained a few rare best products on the market, so that his face door can be temporarily supported.
