Chapter 183: Sword Pavilion

After giving the money, the stall owner kindly found a bag and packed up a few boxes that Xu Ziling and the others bought.

Xu Ziling took the bag, and after another kind word, he left the stall with his arms around Yang Ruolan's waist.

"Did you miss it?" As soon as she walked out of the stall a few meters away, Yang Ruolan, who was clinging to Xu Ziling, immediately asked.

Of course, Xu Ziling would not directly say that this thing was an agarwood box, after all, it was wrapped in a layer of things, if he said that this was an agarwood jewelry box, how could he explain how he knew the Tao, so he immediately made an excuse.

"I'm in the process of materials, I saw at a glance that this box was weird, it was wrapped with a layer of what should be a special resin or something, and at a glance, I knew that it was artificial, you think about it, a box was put on a layer of things, and it was covered up from its original appearance, so it should have some secrets."

In fact, Xu Ziling's explanation is a bit far-fetched, he is indeed very familiar with the application of materials, but he is only familiar with the metal aspect, and for this kind of biological material, it is not involved at all, but Yang Ruolan never thought of what Xu Ziling said, plus she was not familiar with Xu Ziling's research direction, so as soon as his words came out, she believed it.

"What's the secret, you say? Could it be that the box originally had a treasure map or something on it? Or which queen used it in ancient times? As soon as she heard Xu Ziling say that this box might be hiding a secret, Yang Ruolan immediately blurted out.

"This ...... It should be possible! Xu Ziling hesitated for a moment, and then replied.

As soon as Yang Ruolan's words came out, Xu Ziling also had to admit that a woman's sixth sense was really strong, although the first guess was incorrect, but the second one was possible. If you can use a jewelry box made of Qi Nan agarwood, then its owner, if not the queen, is at least the royal reward to the family of a minister.

Hearing Xu Ziling say that it was possible, Yang Ruolan's whole face turned pink with excitement, and she continued to say to Xu Ziling: "Then we really missed it?" ”

"I'm not sure about that, but I guess so. If there were no secrets, no one would have put the effort into disguising them. Wait for us to go back, I'll put a little potion to remove this layer from above. Xu Ziling replied to Yang Ruolan.

"Then let's go see if there are any swords, and then go home and get this thing." Yang Ruolan couldn't wait to go back and remove the disguise of this box, and after speaking, she pulled Xu Ziling to the front, "Hurry up, I remember that the store is in front." ”

After walking more than 100 meters, Yang Ruolan pointed to a shop on the right, "Look, this is the store." I heard that this shop is the largest antique shop for swords and other things in our entire Xinghai, and if we can't find a suitable one here, it is estimated that it will be difficult to find it in other places. ”

"Oh, really?" Xu Ziling looked in the direction pointed by Yang Ruolan and saw the shop she was talking about.

From the outside, there is not much difference from the other shops on the street, the same antique decoration, the signboard is the same as other shops, is a large black plaque on the top of the door, there are three lines of calligraphy on the plaque "Sword Pavilion".

When he was a child, Xu Haoran taught him to practice calligraphy, and now Xu Ziling is a calligrapher, although he has not reached the level of a calligrapher, but he is also quite skilled. The words are written well, for appreciation, you can see one or two, see the three big characters of this "Sword Pavilion", Xu Ziling will be able to write these three big characters immediately, it is definitely the style of everyone, but it is a pity that there is no money left on this signboard, so that Xu Ziling does not know which big calligrapher wrote these words, or someone else.

"Let's go inside." Xu Ziling said to Yang Ruolan, and the two of them walked towards the Sword Pavilion.

When you walk into the store, you will see the ubiquitous knives and swords, the swords are placed in the glass counter, and the swords are also hung on the walls.

Looking at the dazzling variety of swords, Xu Ziling was also shocked, if you want to talk about guns, he has seen a lot, but it is the first time that cold weapons have seen such a spectacular scene. There are all kinds of sabers in the army, but they are only a single saber, and compared to here, they have completely different feelings.

"That's a lot." Yang Ruolan looked at the swords in the store, and she also sighed.

"Well, it's a lot. It seems that what you heard should be right, this store must be the largest cold weapon store in Xinghai. Xu Ziling nodded, pulled her and began to look at it.

The whole store is about two or three hundred square meters, and there are a few people in the store who are watching at this time, and there are also a few people looking at the objects in their hands with the waiters in the store. A waitress saw Xu Ziling and Yang Ruolan and immediately walked over.

"Hello two, how can you help?"

"We want to buy a better knife or sword, can you introduce it to us." Yang Ruolan probably wanted to go back early to figure out the secret of the box, and when she saw the waiter coming, she directly said their intentions.

"Do you want a modern sword? Or an ancient sword? The waiter asked with a smile.

"Oh, what do you say?" Xu Ziling had never heard that the antique shop would sell ancient and modern things separately, so he asked the waiter with interest.

"Yes, the swords and swords we have here belong to ancient times, but there are also all kinds of swords and swords produced by famous modern sword factories. There are antiques in the age, and the modern ones are produced by those manufacturers for gifts, which are also carefully exercised, and antique swords have the same collectible value. Xu Ziling's question made the waiter see that the two of them didn't understand these things at all, so he explained them in detail to the two.

"I see, I really don't know that there are manufacturers of swords now. So how much do these modern swords generally cost? Xu Ziling really didn't know that there was a manufacturer specializing in the production of this kind of cold weapon in modern times, and she was a little curious about how much such a manufacturer would sell for a sword, so she asked the waiter about this question.

"There are dozens or hundreds of cheap ones, and hundreds of thousands of expensive ones." The waiter's answer made Xu Ziling dumbfounded, he didn't expect that the sword cast in modern times was still so valuable.
