Chapter 59. Three kings offer treasures
"Jade King" Zhu Jianguo, "Flower King" Liu Manjiang, as well as "Tea King" Ma Dongcheng, and "Dog King" Yang Zhankui, who did not come this time, have known Nandu boss Xu Haoming a long time ago.
As a famous entrepreneur, Xu Haoming has money in his hands and four nouveau riche have goods in his hands, so after he met, he came here every year to meet and trade. To be precise, Xu Haoming has a great appetite and plays extensively, and general things are not eye-catching, so the four of them will take out the best treasure they received this year every year and sell it to Xu Haoming at a high price.
Coming and going, this has become a routine, basically every year the big guys have to get together, each time to offer a treasure, to see who is the most capable, the best baby.
This year, without the participation of the "Dog King" Yang Zhankui, the fighting spirit of the three people is even higher, after all, with one less competitor, maybe they can come out on top and sell at the best price.
The first to come out to offer treasure is the "Tea King" Ma Dongcheng, this big-eared blessed guy has a determined expression, after being busy in private, he stood up, took out a fist-sized red clay clay pot, held it in the palm of his hand, and said with a smile: "The big family's eyes, this clay pot is not an ordinary clay pot, commonly known as 'Baizhang red clay small tea urn', it is fired with excellent red clay and spent 9981 days of hard work, on the outer wall of the clay pot, engraved with more than 400 words of tea ancestor Lu Yu's "Book of Tea", It is an extremely rare work of art in itself. ”
Listening to Ma Dongcheng say this, everyone looked at it carefully, sure enough, the red clay pot is extraordinary, in addition to the delicate workmanship and antique, the outer wall is really engraved with fly's head small Kai, the handwriting of these small Kai is very small, so small that it is half smaller than a grain of rice, and it is impossible to see it if you don't look carefully. Lin Yi himself had absorbed the essence of Lu Yu's "Book of Tea", so he could see at a glance that the content engraved on the tea jar was the sixth part of the ten parts of the "Book of Tea".
Wings fly, hair goes, in terms of speaking, these three are born in heaven and earth. Drink and peck to live, when drinking, righteousness is far away. If you quench your thirst, drink it with pulp; Angry and angry, drink it with wine; Sleep, drink it with tea. Tea is drinking, originating from Shennong's ......
Seeing that the big guy was attracted by what he said, and he was carefully checking the small tea urn of red clay in his hand, Ma Dongcheng, the "king of tea", continued to smile and said: "This treasure was also accidentally purchased by me from a tea farmer in central Yunnan. I remember that day it was pouring rain, the sky was thundering, I was purchasing tea in central Yunnan, and I had to find a place to shelter from the rain when I encountered this thunderous rain. It's also an evil door, I go east and west, but I can't get out of that tea field, on a rainy day, that place seems to be under the ** array, at a glance it is all tea trees, I wandered around for a long time and couldn't go out. At this moment, a small snake came out of the tea forest, I was startled, and thought I had encountered some poisonous snakes, you must know that at this point the tea forest climate is warm and humid, and I like to hide some poisonous snakes such as bamboo leaves and cobras. Many tea farmers who pick tea and vegetables have been poisoned by these poisonous snakes. But I was lucky this time, take a closer look, the snake is the most common tea tree bark snake, this snake skin is like a tea tree, can be perfectly camouflaged on the half leaf of the tea tree yarn, as soon as a bird flies by, it immediately relaxes, let go of the tight muscles, bites the bird, and then eats the bird, but it is not very dangerous to people. ”
"Of course, it may be a bit strange to say this, and some pretend, but this encounter really opened my eyes, how to say, this snake actually nodded at me as if it was spiritual, and then meandered along the tea grove path, I saw this, I followed it, and walked out of this labyrinthine tea forest without much effort." "It's really evil, especially at the moment when I walked out of the tea grove, a thunder suddenly came down from the sky, I looked up, only to see lightning cracking the sky, one after another splitting down, more than ten miles away, close as if it was above my head. At that time, I was stunned, and said in my heart, could it be that Lao Tzu usually does too many bad things, and this God wants to send the sky to thunder me? Just as I was suffering from hysteria, another thunderclap came down, and the sky shook, only to see a green dragon suddenly cross the sky and disappear in the blink of an eye. I was stupid, it was really a dragon, so thick, so big, I could even see the scales on its body clearly when it was coiled in the air-"
"Tea King" Ma Dongcheng clicked his mouth, the whole person was in a state of excitement, his eyes lit up, and he continued: "I know you think I'm talking nonsense, but I swear to God, everything I saw that day is true, and when I wake up, look at the little snake that helped me guide the way, it's gone!" In the blink of an eye, I don't know where to run. At this time, the wind and rain stopped, and the sky began to clear as if nothing had happened. I just woke up, could it be that the snake is hiding from the thunderstorm, I heard that there are many spiritual things in this world, such as foxes, weasels, snakes and the like, after cultivating into essence, there will be thunder tribulations, it seems that this snake has succeeded, and should be thundered into a dragon......"
"Tea King" Ma Dongcheng said with emotion and foam, seeing that he was immersed in the fantasy story he had created, Zhu Fatzi, who had long been familiar with him, interrupted him unhappily: "Old horse, I don't know if you are a worm, I don't know if you are a thunder dragon, I only know that you met a fox last year, and a turtle the year before last, what kind of weasel was the year before last...... Why are you touching so many evil things? Do you own a zoo? ”
Ma Dongcheng glared at him, "Fatty, what are you talking about?" Don't believe me, think I'm talking nonsense and making up stories to lie to you? Do I have to do this, do I?! Also, it's time for me to offer treasures, and it's not your turn yet, what are you anxious about?! ”
Zhu Fatzi was choked, so he had to smile and say: "Okay, you continue, the gods are chattering, I know that you are a tea seller, I don't know that I thought you were writing novels, and I am about to catch up with the chat...... It also grows insects and turns into dragons, listening to infiltrating people. ”
Lin Yi and the others, it seems that the two have often quarreled before, and the competition for this treasure offering is really fierce enough.
Here, Ma Dongcheng ignored the fat man's sarcasm and continued: "Don't be impatient, everyone, my old horse will soon get to the point." When I walked out of the tea forest, I saw a small farmhouse courtyard at a glance, so I was going to spend the night and change my clothes by the way...... I didn't expect to walk in, I saw an old tea farmer fiddling with this red clay tea can, and only after asking did I know that when there was thunder just now, a lightning bolt struck his yard, revealing this thing, removing mud stains, sealing tightly, the whole thing is definitely an old thing......"
Zhu Fatzi did not refute this conclusion, he is playing antiques, and the ability to appreciate treasures is still there, although he did not hold this red clay pot with his own hands, but it can also be seen that that kind of firing kung fu definitely does not belong to modern technology, and now he likes to add a lot of chemical raw materials to this kind of thing, and it is very modern in shape. What's more, the small characters engraved on the wall of the tile are the most popular small block fonts in the Ming and Qing dynasties, even if modern people want to imitate, it is difficult to imitate them, unless what calligraphy everyone, the small block is written out of the gods.
Seeing that no one refuted, Ma Dongcheng, the "Tea King", said with a triumphant look: "Okay, in the end, I will unveil the cup and stop detouring for everyone, do you think that this is this 'Baizhang Red Clay Small Tea Urn'?" Wrong, it's the treasure here! ”
As he spoke, he saw the "Tea King" Ma Dongcheng lift the lid of the tea can, and suddenly, a burst of rich and simple tea fragrance overflowed......
