Chapter 56: Ten Thousand Taels of Gold
Through the increasingly lively crowds, Rong Yuanhang came to a spacious street called Confucian Temple Street under the guidance of Gao Shenwei. On the left side of the front, there is a banner hanging high, and the white silk cloth has three big black characters of 'Jiang Haidang' on it.
"This is a pawnshop, right?" Rong Yuanhang approached and asked, pointing to the pretense. But I can't be sure, the gate is quiet and quiet, look into the courtyard, only see a few high steps, the top of the steps due to the limited line of sight, but can not see what environment inside.
"Yes, Childe, and this Jianghai pawnshop is still one of the best and most powerful pawnshops in the city." Gao Shenwei said mysteriously: "Jianghai pawn racks are sufficient, there are more than ten branches in the city, and their head office is located in the south of the city. But ......"
"But what?" Rong Yuanhang asked puzzled.
"However, the shareholders behind this Jianghai pawn, I heard that the Jiang family has the lion's share." Gao Shenwei whispered.
Rong Yuanhang frowned: "What does the Jiang family have to do with me...... Oh, you mean Jiang Keqin's family? Seeing Gao Shenwei nodding silently, Rong Yuanhang's heart suddenly moved, looked up at the plaque, and said, "Jiang Keqin, the Jiang family, okay, see how I don't kill you." ”
"Master Gao, is their head office very big?" Rong Yuanhang asked.
Gao Shenxing didn't know why he nodded and said, "It's very ...... It's big, childe, in fact, the shop here is also very big. ”
"Where is the level of the person in charge here? Do you have a lot of right to speak? Rong Yuanhang asked again.
"Uh...... This, the small ones don't know much, but the small ones heard that over there in the Chengnan head office, they have the Jiang family's descendants in charge. ”
"Okay, let's go to the south of the city!"
……
From the north of the city to the south of the city, it takes more than an hour just to take a carriage, Rong Yuanhang was very unhappy when he saw Jiang Keqin's face, and planned to pit the Jiang family. It wasn't too troublesome, hired a carriage, and spent a lot of time going directly to the south of Xianyang City.
Jianghai pawn shop, at the foot of Wanzhou Mountain in the south of the city, although it is the foot of the mountain, it is the most prosperous place for business. Taverns, inns, green houses, pawnshops, money villages, etc. are all gathered in this area. There is also the most famous high-end restaurant in the city - Wanshan Prefecture Wangjiang Building! Tomorrow, the agent Jin Laoqi is going to ask Rong Yuanhang to come to this building to discuss the matter of household registration.
When he found Jianghai Pawn, it was about to be dusk, and Rong Yuanhang sent Gao Shenwei to rent two rooms in a nearby inn. Set aside a spare room, and then put them in another room to wait here, and told him not to show up as much as possible, and that he might not come back at night. But the next day, I made an appointment with Jin Laoqi, and I will definitely go back here.
Rong Yuanhang was in another empty room, closed the door and traveled back to the villa of the modern world, putting on a little makeup for himself, so that others could not easily recognize his original appearance. Then he crossed back into the inn again, and after the arrangement was completed, he rushed straight to Jianghai to pawn.
After entering the gate, a screen in the center is blocked, which looks a little eerie. The counter inside the store is very high, and the inside of the business hall is separated by a wooden fence.
There were three or two customers in the hall, and the arrival of Rong Yuanhang did not attract a lot of attention. He approached the pawn cabinet, and a lean man in his fifties asked, "Do you want to redeem the guest officer?" ”
"No, I'll pawn the treasure." Rong Yuanhang said.
"Oh, pawn the 'treasure' and ask the guest officer to move over there." The lean man didn't care about the 'treasure' he talked about, there were so many of them that everyone came and called themselves their pawns as treasures.
Rong Yuanhang saw that people were not salty, so he had to move over according to his words, and when he saw a man in a blue robe standing in the counter, he opened his mouth and asked, "Hey, is your shopkeeper here?" ”
Rong Yuanhang sat on a high stool and asked through the window, the counter was too high, as if it was a prison visit, where prisoners meet their relatives. It doesn't feel very comfortable.
"What should the guests be?" The blue-robed man glanced at him, but didn't answer his question. This kind of high-minded attitude makes Rong Yuanhang angry. But since you want to pawn, you can only endure it.
He took out a mirror of modern craftsmanship and said, "You show me this, how much is it worth?" ”
People in this world generally use copper mirrors, although there is a process to produce glass at this time, but there is no technology to make clothes mirrors, and the glass produced is a variegated process rough product. Therefore, mirrors are generally made of grinding and polishing materials such as red copper, crystal, obsidian, etc., and the surface is plated or painted with a mercury compound, which is of course far less reflective than modern technology.
With the mirror in hand, the blue-robed man was suddenly surprised, and its clarity was even clearer than that of direct viewing with the naked eye. And both the craftsmanship and design are exquisite. Attentive, he also found his really old face, and secretly sighed: It turns out that my face is so ugly, and there are a lot of blackheads hidden in the pits! Well, when you go back, you have to ask the concubine to clean up.
"How?" Rong Yuanhang saw that he was silent for a long time, and his heart became more and more unhappy.
The blue-robed man's casual attitude also changed at this time, and he waved his hand at Rong Yuanhang and said, "Contemptible Yang Liang, add to the second dynasty of the store, I don't know where the prince got this thing?" ”
"You don't need to know that. This is a real treasure mirror, I say you should not do it? If not, I'll go to the next one! Rong Yuanhang said impatiently.
That Chaofeng Yang Liang said, "Son, wait a minute. He secretly looked through the yellowed notebook and saw that it was not recorded in the official list of thieves, so he said with confidence: "How much does the son have to be?" ”
"Then it depends on the price you give, if the price is right, I will sell it directly." Rong Yuanhang said.
The light in Yang Liang's eyes flashed, he glanced at Rong Yuanhang quickly, and frowned and played with the mirror, thinking about it for a long time and being a little uncertain. exchanged views with an old man in his seventies next to him, and finally nodded and said, "Childe, this treasure mirror is valued at thirty-five taels of silver!" But ......"
"Thirty-five taels?" Rong Yuanhang was suddenly a little disappointed, this was too far from what he thought, thinking that the other party would have to give a thousand or a hundred taels of silver, and then raise the price with them, but who knew that they directly gave thirty-five taels.
"Then I don't deserve it." Rong Yuanhang reached out and snatched the mirror back.
"Please wait!" Yang Liang raised his hand to stop him and said, "This ...... Forgive me for being clumsy, I really haven't seen this thing...... That's it, Childe, please wait a while, and report to the big court of our shop to come and palm your eyes! ”
"Okay, then you hurry up." Rong Yuanhang pretended to be impatient.
At this time, the old man who had been silent in the cabinet said to Rong Yuanhang: "Old Ma Yong, is the manager of this store, and he has not asked the son's name?" ”
"My surname is Nguyen." Rong Yuanhang gave himself a surname indiscriminately, and he didn't want to have more friendships with him.
"Ah, it turned out to be Gongzi Ruan, you are a distinguished guest, please take a step to speak."
"Okay then." Since Rong Yuanhang can open such a big store in his heart, he should be honest, and he is not afraid that they will hack him. What's more, he carries a pistol with him. Self-confidence and complete self-preservation.
After a while, Rong Yuanhang was led by the shopkeeper to an elegant small living room on the second floor, and served tea before he retreated. After waiting for a few minutes, Yang Liang followed a woman in her twenties and walked over.
I saw that the woman's long hair was combed upward, knotted with gold silk, and decorated with emerald beads on the bun, wearing a flower robe, which looked very dazzling and luxurious. The cheekbones on her face are slightly too high, and the faint eyebrows fly to the sideburns on both sides, giving people a very capable feeling.
"The guest officer has been waiting for a long time, the little woman Jiang Yanyun is the big courtier of our store." She was blessed with Rong Yuan, and sat down directly. Rong Yuanhang returned the salute, thinking that you are also surnamed Jiang, so you won't be Jiang Keqin's sister, right?
There was not much chilling on either side. Jiang Yanyun took Rong Yuanhang's mirror and tasted it for a while, then said: "This treasure mirror is good, and the little girl personally likes it very much." Ruan Gongzi, you can make a price, I bought it privately! ”
Rong Yuanhang said with a smile: "Okay, refreshing!" That's a thousand taels, I believe you also know the true value of this treasure mirror! ”
"This ......" Jiang Yanyun frowned and said, "Young Master Ruan, your price is too high, right?" According to the estimation of the store, it can only be priced at forty taels of silver, and the rules of the store have always been that you should only buy it, and calculate it according to seventy percent of the original product. …… In this way, Miss Ben likes this mirror very much, and will give you a hundred taels of silver, how about it? ”
Rong Yuanhang shook his head, he really couldn't look at this hundred taels, but he thought that the big head was not here, so he took a step back and said: "Four hundred taels, this is my bottom line." If you don't, forget it. ”
Jiang Yanyun's eyes were half-closed, and she thought for a few seconds before agreeing: "Okay." She stood up and said, "Stay in the mirror, Yang Liang, you take him to the counter to pay." ”
"Yes, Miss!" Yang Liang agreed to the invitation and said to Rong Yuanhang: "Young Master Ruan, please." ”
"Wait......" Rong Yuanhang has no good impression of this woman's arrogance, and thinks that if he doesn't pit your Jiang family, won't Lao Tzu come in vain? So he said, "I have one more thing, and this is a treasure!" ”
He pulled out the cigarette lighter! ——A lighter with a titanium silver shell and English letters on the surface, which I bought last time I went to the store with my cousin Lu Xiaofu, and it cost dozens of dollars.
Attracting the eyes of the two, Rong Yuanhang demonstrated the use of the lighter, but did not explain the consumable. He smiled and said, "I can guarantee that my PayPal is unique in the world!" Miss Jiang, how much is it worth? ”
Jiang Yanyun was a little surprised, she took it, "Click! I lit the lighter, tried it and sniffed it in my nose before exclaiming, "It's a good thing!" The handiwork is good, it's made of steel, right? This mechanism is really ingenious! ”
Rong Yuanhang looked at her intently, thinking that you would give a price?
The local people use tools such as fire knives and sickles to make fires. This lighter is definitely a precious item compared to this world.
"Two taels of silver." Jiang Yanyun said lightly.
"What? Two two? Rong Yuanhang almost vomited out a mouthful of blood! Two taels of silver, this is too much contrast with the price in his mind, and he plans to ask for at least 10,000 taels of silver.
Jiang Yanyun's sexy little mouth pursed slightly, the corners of her mouth rose, she looked at Rong Yuanhang and asked, "It's filled with fire oil, right?" This kind of thing burns when it is hot, does not melt when it meets water, and has a pungent smell. In the northern desert and Heihe area, there is an inexhaustible supply of oil. This lighter is just a craftsmanship, a strange thing, the oil in it is not used many times, two taels of silver, I still look at its curiosity and ingenuity. ”
"Holy! This woman is so difficult! I really know a lot. Rong Yuanhang scolded secretly, two taels of silver, it is better to stay and smoke and use it, so as not to go back and buy it again.
"Give it back to me, two taels of silver, hehe......" Rong Yuanhang reached out and took it back. Is it okay to redeem four hundred taels? There are still a lot of mirrors, but scarcity is expensive, if you take out another mirror, with this woman's shrewdness, it is difficult to sell it at a good price, it is better not to sell it.
He was not reconciled after only exchanging a few hundred taels of silver, thought about it, and secretly made a bold decision and said, "Miss Jiang, you are really ...... Awesome, alas, who told me to wait for the money, it seems that I can only sell the real treasure of the world! ”
Rong Yuanhang also has a mobile phone in his shoulder! The phone had been on for many days, and in order to save power, he turned off the phone.
took the phone out of the bag, and at this time, Jiang and Yang Liang were both staring at the thing in his hand, and the delicate zipper on his shoulder was curious.
"This thing is very important to me, and for the sake of secrecy, I can only show it to one of you!" Rong Yuanhang said.
"What's this novelty?" Jiang Yanyun looked at him with interest.
Rong Yuanhang deliberately showed disdain: "Hmph, this is a matter of the secret of immortals and demons, I want to take it out and scare you to death!" ”
"Oh? The secret of immortals and demons? ”
Jiang Yanyun didn't think so, she had to see how evil he said, so she glanced at Yang Liang, she made a look, and looked at the other party to leave. Yang Liang had no choice but to bow silently, and then turned around and left the small living room.
Rong Yuanhang held the operator in his hand, took advantage of this time, turned his back and took out the SIM card, closed the lid and then turned on the mobile phone to turn it off, and saw that the battery of the mobile phone was still 20% left. He knew that there was a video of the Chinese version of "Journey to the West: The Great Havoc in the Heavenly Palace". Rong Yuanhang secretly thought: "Brother will give you a ruthless one!" ”
He quickly skipped the video over a certain segment, pressed the pause button, and then locked the screen before turning around. All these mobile phone operations are done in the shoulder bag, the purpose is to make Jiang Yanyun invisible and unable to associate too much.
"This is what you call 'Zhibao'? What does this have to do with immortals and demons? Jiang Yanyun took the mobile phone and looked at it again and again, and was very surprised: this thing is not gold or jade, the shape is novel and exquisite, and it is something she has never seen before!
Rong Yuanhang said with a serious face: "Miss Jiang, you may not believe it when you say it, it fell from the sky, and it happened to hit my head that day, and there was an inexplicable additional piece of information, 'information' understand?" It's just that I don't teach, I understood the use of this thing at that moment, don't you say it's strange? ”
"How do I use it?" Jiang Yanyun couldn't help but become more and more curious.
Rong Yuanhang didn't say anything, and took the mobile phone, "Miss Jiang, pay attention." ”
Jiang Yanyun couldn't help but be surprised, and stretched her neck to look over. Rong Yuanhang pulled her sleeve and said, "Stand on my side, otherwise you won't be able to see it!" ”
At this moment, he turned on the display of his mobile phone, swiped his finger, unlocked the lock screen in an instant, and then pressed the video play button......
In the video, there is a picture of Sun Wukong and the fairy transformed by Erlang God together. Jiang Yanyun's dark eyes suddenly widened, and his face was full of shock!
In the video, Sun Wukong and the fairy in white are standing on a dazzling platform with clouds and mist and fairy spirit, Wukong asks: "What is this such a big stove?" ”
The fairy stood up and asked instead of answering: "You are the famous Monkey King?" ”
"I am." Monkey King's hilarious Q&A.
The fairy smiled and said, "Here, is the place of Heavenly Court alchemy, and I am collecting immortal qi to refine the elixir for the Jade Emperor." ……”
"Elixir?"
"The immortals have eaten the elixir, and their mana will increase greatly, which is equivalent to the mana obtained in 30,000 years, the Jade Emperor has practiced since childhood, and has experienced 1,750 eons of suffering, and each eons has 129,600 years, so that he can use the elixir of the infinite Dao!"
…… At this point, Rong Yuanhang suddenly turned off the movie.
"Hey, what about the immortals?" Jiang Yanyun asked subconsciously.
"How?" Rong Yuanhang put his phone behind him and stared at her with a smile. I saw Jiang Yanyun trembling with excitement at the moment, panting irrepressibly, and her towering breasts rose and fell up and down, almost making people wonder if she had an asthma attack.
She muttered, "...... Collect immortal qi and refine the elixir for the Jade Emperor! That's the fairy world, that's the fairy world! …… The elixir of the Infinite Dao, oh my God!! ”
"Hello?" Rong Yuanhang's hand was reflected in front of her eyes, and she thought: She won't be stimulated to become mentally ill, right?
Jiang Yanyun came to her senses and asked dumbfounded, "You, you...... Where did you come from, baby? ”
"Didn't I say it, it fell from the sky and hit me in the head," Rong Yuanhang couldn't help but laugh secretly when he saw her flushed face, and asked, "Hey, I said you didn't buy it?" ”
"Okay, I'll buy it, I'll give you as much silver as I want!" Yan Xiaodan gradually calmed down, she turned her head to look outside the door, as if she was afraid that someone would come in. Seeing that it was quiet outside the door, he turned his head again, stared at Rong Yuanhang, and said in a low voice: "Don't let the people in our store know about this......
She suddenly stretched out her hand: "Give me the treasure, I'll get it for you as much money as you want!" ”
"I want 10,000 taels...... Gold! Pay with one hand and deliver with the other. "Rong Yuanhang lion opened his mouth.
