Chapter Ninety-Eight: Found a Treasure
The shopkeeper turned around to look, then bent down to pick up the map, looked at it in his hand, turned back to Jiang Chen and said, "This little young master, do you mean this map?"
Looking at the map in the shopkeeper's hand, Jiang Chen nodded and said, "Yes, this map is so strange, I don't know where it is recorded?"
Hearing this, the shopkeeper smiled, put the map on the counter, pointed to the treasure chest marked on it, and said: "This is a so-called treasure map, not long ago a poor man sold it to me, I didn't want it at the time, but seeing that he was eager to save his wife and children, I had no choice but to accept it."
A middle-aged man who saved his wife and children? Wouldn't it be the same big cow he met at the pharmacy?
Stunned, Jiang Chen suddenly recalled the scene in the pharmacy at that time, the middle-aged man also knelt down in front of everyone to save his wife and children, and he also gave the man dozens of gold coins
"I want to overlap with the words in the shopkeeper's mouth, I'm afraid it will really be the big cow who saves his wife and children, but I didn't expect him to have a lot of things, even the so-called treasure map" Jiang Chen sighed, then picked up the map on the counter, and looked at it carefully, this map is relatively old, and the routes marked on it have been blurred, except that there is nothing strange about it, the only thing that makes people feel strange is that there is a treasure chest drawn on it, and this treasure chest occasionally flashes a strange light
"Could it be that this map is a legendary treasure map?" Jiang Chen was slightly stunned, and there was an inexplicable throbbing in his heart, since he heard that the strange place appeared in Heavenly Dao City, he began to be very interested in some ancient books, including this kind of strange map
The shopkeeper looked at Jiang Chen holding the map in a daze, and felt a little strange, but he didn't think much about it, after all, when he got this map, he had also looked at it, and he didn't think it was a legendary treasure map
Smiling, the shopkeeper didn't care about Jiang Chen, and bent down again to look for the detailed map of Tiandao City, and after a long while, he finally found a map in the corner of the counter, and on that map, the words 'Tiandao City' were marked
After finding the map, the shopkeeper straightened up again and said to Jiang Chen: "This little young master, the detailed map of Tiandao City you want has been found, however, this map was drawn three months ago, although it is detailed, but due to the advancement of time, the places marked on it may change."
Pulled back from a daze by the shopkeeper, Jiang Chen smiled awkwardly, and then handed back the strange map in his hand to the shopkeeper
It was true that the map was bizarre, but what it was? He didn't know, and it was useless to buy it, so he had to return it to the shopkeeper
"Shopkeeper, you said the map was three months ago?" After handing the map back to the shopkeeper, Jiang Chen pointed to another map marked with three big characters in Tiandao City, and said
"Since more people have been buying maps recently, the latest issue has been sold out, and there is only this one left, I don't know if you want to buy it, young master?" said the shopkeeper with a smile
"What about the price?"
Jiang Chen is also a person-like person, so he didn't directly say that he wanted it, but asked the price first
He knew very well that in front of this kind of businessman, if he showed that he wanted to, he was afraid that he would immediately sit on the ground and start the price, after all, the choice of the city lord of the centennial year was about to begin, and many people wanted to go to Tiandao City to join in the fun, and the map was naturally a must-have for travel, therefore, the supply of some shops was not available, and of course the price would rise, so he had to be cautious, he didn't want to be wronged
Seeing that Jiang Chen asked the price first, the shopkeeper also knew what Jiang Chen was thinking, so he laughed and said: "This little young master, you also know that the map of Tiandao City is difficult to find now, and there is only one left in this store, if you don't want it, I won't force it, of course, if the little young master really wants it, I will lose the old capital cheaper, what do you think about ninety gold coins?"
Ninety gold coins?
Hearing this, the corners of Jiang Chen's mouth couldn't help twitching, ninety gold coins are the living expenses of ordinary people for more than a hundred years, and they were compared to a map, which is really chilling, and this map is still three months ago
"Profiteers who sit on the ground and raise prices"
Jiang Chen scolded fiercely in his heart, if there was a second shop in the town that sold maps, he would immediately turn around and leave, and he would not go back but there was no way, who called Qingshan Town such a map shop, and he still had to go to Tiandao City
Suppressing the urge to slap the profiteer in front of him to death, Jiang Chen pursed his lips, then shook his head and said, "Shopkeeper, do you want ninety gold coins for a map?"
"Hehe, this little young master said that because of the details of the map, the price is naturally a little more expensive, ninety gold coins, which is already the cost price" The shopkeeper is also a famous character, in the face of Jiang Chen's questioning, there was no panic on his face, and he was as calm as water in a tank, without a trace of waves
"Cost price?It takes so much effort to draw a map?Could it be that all the people who draw this map are blind?" Jiang Chen said with some anger, if it is really as the shopkeeper said, ninety gold coins are the cost price of a map, then there is no need to think about this map, it must be drawn by a blind man, and only the blind who cannot see it will need to work so hard
This time, the corner of the shopkeeper's mouth twitched, but he didn't expect to meet an opponent today after many years of business, and he was an opponent who was fifteen or sixteen years old
"Then little master, what kind of price do you think it should be, if it is suitable, I will sell it to you" The shopkeeper also knew that Jiang Chen was not so easy to fool, so he could only let go
Touching the space ring, there were about thirty gold coins in it, and after breathing a sigh of relief, Jiang Chen smiled: "At most, twenty gold coins, I don't want more."
After speaking, Jiang Chen turned around and left, looking at that look, he really didn't plan to ask for it
"This little young master, twenty gold coins are really less, why don't you add more, add a little more" What is the price of this map, the shopkeeper naturally knows, seeing that Jiang Chen is leaving, he hurriedly grabbed Jiang Chen
Turning around, Jiang Chen looked at the shopkeeper, then looked at the map in the shopkeeper's hand, and said, "You check it for me first."
The shopkeeper hurriedly handed the map to Jiang Chen
After checking it and confirming that it was a detailed map of the area of Heavenly Dao City, Jiang Chen nodded slightly, then turned the space ring and took out a small bag of gold coins from it, estimating that there were about twenty of them
Seeing Jiang Chen take out a small bag of gold coins, the smile on the shopkeeper's face suddenly became a little thicker, and he almost drooled as if he had never seen gold coins before
After waving his hand to put the map into the space ring, Jiang Chen put the small bag of gold coins in his hand on the counter: "There are twenty-five gold coins in it, you can count them in the shopkeeper."
As soon as the words were finished, Jiang Chen's pupils shrank sharply, and he quickly grabbed the strange map on the counter, then turned around and ran, saying as he ran: "Twenty gold coins, together with this map, the shopkeeper, thank you."
was taken aback by Jiang Chen's actions, and the shopkeeper was about to snatch the map back, but when he saw the small bag of gold coins, his movements immediately stopped, looking at Jiang Chen's disappearing back, the shopkeeper smiled: "Hehe, two cheap maps, for twenty gold coins, no matter how I earned it."
But when he opened the bag and counted it carefully, the smile on his face instantly froze and became extremely ugly, and there were only eighteen gold coins in it......
After running out of the Tiantu store in one breath, and then turning into a few alleys, Jiang Chen stopped, gasped and leaned against a wall, grinning: "It's like I've robbed someone and something."
Eighteen gold coins bought two maps, although they didn't earn it, but it was not a loss, Jiang Chen was very satisfied with the results he had obtained this time
Just as Jiang Chen was smirking, there was a fluctuation in the space, and Shen Yun'er's figure suddenly appeared in front of him
"Goblin, why are you here?" Seeing Shen Yun'er's bewitching figure, Jiang Chen put away the smile on his face and asked with some confusion
"Although I don't live in your space ring, I will still be by your side, otherwise if something happens to you, wouldn't I have to stay alive and widowed?" Shen Yun'er walked up to Jiang Chen, leaned against the wall, and said jokingly
Widowed?
The corners of her mouth twitched violently, Shen Yun'er really dared to say anything, but although her words were a little stunned, the strong love was not difficult to understand
With a slight warmth in his heart, Jiang Chen reached out and touched Shen Yun'er's face, and then joked unprecedentedly: "You look so attractive, how can I be willing to let you stay alive and widowed?"
As soon as she brushed Jiang Chen's hand away, Shen Yun'er stopped joking with Jiang Chen, looked at the sheepskin map in Jiang Chen's hand, and said seriously: "Show me the map."
"Do you want to see it?" Jiang Chen asked with some confusion as he raised the map marked with the treasure chest in his hand
Shen Yun'er's charming eyes glanced at Jiang Chen, then grabbed Jiang Chen's arm, grabbed the map and spread it out
"Elf, do you care so much about this map...... Could it be that this guy is really a legendary treasure map?" Shen Yun'er's behavior really made Jiang Chen a little stunned, but maybe he was more excited, could this really be a treasure map? Jiang Chen was looking forward to Shen Yun'er's answer
After staring at the map for a long time, Shen Yun'er frowned and replied, "I don't know what kind of map this is, but its material is not ordinary, and the route marked on it is complicated, I believe it will not be a shoddy product."
"What kind of noun is this?" Jiang Chen opened his mouth, he had never heard of such an item
Knowing that she had said the wrong thing again, Shen Yun'er hurriedly pursed her mouth, this word was not available in the Xuanwu Continent
After relieving herself, Shen Yun'er said lightly: "This map is drawn by a kind of silk called the Earth Silkworm Beast, spitting silk, not an ordinary sheepskin, the preciousness is comparable to some perfect quality weapons, of course, because the map has existed for too long, the quality has also decreased a lot."
"The material comparable to a perfect weapon?" Jiang Chen glared, this inconspicuous map, it was such an expensive thing? Could it be that he had really picked up a treasure?
