Chapter 114: Danger Makes a Big Mistake
Li An was angry and funny, and hurriedly pulled Guo Song aside, and said in a low voice: "You stinky boy, what should I say about you, don't think that I don't know that this white tiger skin was poached from the Forbidden Garden, I can see it, and others can also see it, just this skin, I want to help you deal with it, this rare fur appeared in Chang'an, and the Forbidden Garden found that there was a white tiger missing, and you will be found immediately, it is too dangerous, you can't poach anymore." ”
Guo Song was silent for a moment and said, "There should be no problem to sell it in Luoyang!" ”
Li An rolled his eyes and asked again: "I said brother, the Absi Department is a well-known rich man in the grassland, didn't you get a little valuable booty?" ”
"The governor owes me fifty thousand sheep."
"What about the others?"
Guo Song suddenly thought of what Li An said just now, "Uncle An just said that a piece of jewelry costs thousands of dollars?" ”
"Expensive jewelry is very valuable."
Guo Song made a comparison, "How much is an emerald like an apricot worth?" ”
"It seems that you got your hands on the jewelry box of Mutt's wife, I have seen that piece of emerald, the quality is incomparable, known as the king of emeralds, it can be called a rare treasure, if you want to sell it, everyone will go crazy for 10,000 yuan."
"Uncle An, I have something to go out for, and I'll look for you later."
Guo Song couldn't stay any longer, he had to find Gan Lei quickly, that guy didn't know the goods, don't really sell those jewelry.
Guo Song knew that he had almost made a big mistake, the bag of jewelry was fished out of Muter's horse bag, it must have been very precious, and he didn't expect it.
He rode all the way to Xinfeng County, and an hour later, Guo Song arrived in Xinfeng County, entered the West City Gate, found the pastry shop, and happened to see Li Wenyu leading people to see the store.
"Senior Sister Li!"
Guo Song shouted, Li Wenyu looked back and saw Guo Song, with a smile on his face, "Old Five, are you looking for a senior brother?" He was packing up in the backyard. ”
Guo Song was as kind to their family as a mountain, and no matter how much resentment Li Wenyu had in her heart, it should dissipate, she hurriedly turned around and shouted: "Fat Zhang, your junior brother is here." ”
"Sister-in-law, busy! I'll go find him. ”
Guo Song saw a little girl squatting in the yard playing, and knew that it was the daughter of his senior brother, so he picked it up, nodded her little nose and smiled: "Your name is Zhang Yu'er, right?" ”
"Big brother, who are you?"
Li Wenyu hurriedly said: "Niuniu, call uncle, not big brother." ”
"Hello uncle!"
"Good boy, go back and uncle buy you candy to eat."
Guo Song handed over the child to Li Wenyu, and he walked quickly to the house, just in time to meet Gan Lei walking in from the backyard.
"Senior brother, you came here so soon, and I just came back not long ago."
Guo Song pulled Gan Lei aside and asked in a low voice, "Senior brother, is that bag of jewelry still there?" ”
"Of course, junior brother, I want to make it clear to you, your sister-in-law and I only accept you two pairs of gold bracelets and a golden flower, even if it is a meeting gift you give to Niuniu, we can't ask for anything else, and when you get married in the future, we will give it to our brother and daughter-in-law, but we can't give it to you now, you will spoil things."
Guo Song smiled bitterly: "That's not what it means, it's that I don't know the goods, I'm afraid that you will sell it cheaply, and that emerald alone is worth tens of thousands of dollars." ”
Gan Lei was so frightened that his face changed, "Why didn't you say it earlier, you stinky boy, I sold a pair of gold bracelets, did I lose a lot?" ”
"The gold bracelet should not be lost, the key is the gemstone, you give it to me first, I will go to someone who knows how to identify it, sell two pieces, and the store in the East Market will be there."
Gan Lei took out the bag of jewelry from the box, took another bag and put it up, handed it to Guo Song, and said to him: "There is one more thing I want to tell you, we can rent your house, the rent is not 500 Wen, it is cheaper than the market price, but we can't want the shop in the East Market, this is what my lady means, to be a man is to be moral, we can't take advantage of you like this, brother, I am too greedy, take all the silver back, and be scolded by my lady." ”
In fact, Guo Song also knew the truth of Dou Mi Qiu Sheng, giving too much would not be a good thing, and it would ruin the friendship between their brothers and sisters.
He groaned, "So be it! We calculate according to the share, I rent the store in the East Market, we open it in 37, I account for 70%, you husband and wife account for 30%, and then I hire my sister-in-law as the shopkeeper, and the rent is the salary I give her, how about it? ”
Gan Lei scratched his head, "But even if it accounts for thirty percent, I have to pay for it!" ”
"Senior brother, have you forgotten that white tiger skin? I have already sold it today, and I sold it for 4,000 yuan, and even if our brothers are half of each person, you will have 2,000 yuan, and you have earned it yourself. ”
Gan Lei jumped so high in excitement that he rushed out and shouted, "Lady, we have money!" ”
Li Wenyu had just sent the guests away and negotiated the transfer of thirty taels of silver to the pastry shop, when she saw Gan Lei running out with a gaffe, she stretched out her hand and screwed his ears accurately, "You dead pig's head, don't shout so loudly, the old lady's thirty taels of silver haven't arrived yet, you recruited the thief first." ”
Gan Lei broke free of his wife's hand and whispered a few words in her ear, Li Wenyu's eyes lit up, "Really? ”
"What my junior brother just told me, I told you! White tiger skins are very valuable, you still don't believe it. ”
Li Wenyu suddenly smiled, "Haha! The old lady finally has money. ”
"Wait! The junior brother has another suggestion. ”
Gan Lei told his wife Guo Song's suggestion, Li Wenyu thought about it, this plan is okay, how expensive the shops in Dongshi are, she understands in her heart, in fact, they still take advantage of Sanqi, but it's not interesting to be too careful.
"Today is a good day, call the senior brother, let's go to the tavern to celebrate."
Li Wenyu was full of gratitude to Guo Song in his heart, and in just a few days, the fate of their family had completely changed.
.........
In the room, Li An identified the jewelry that Guo Song got back one by one, "It is this emerald, which was given to Mutt's wife by Xue Yantuo, known as the king of emeralds, and this pair of sapphire earrings is also, generally sapphires are light and colorless, but this pair of sapphires is as blue as the grassland sky, and it is also a rare treasure, these two are diamonds, which have not been polished, don't treat it as crystal." ”
Guo Song was embarrassed, he really didn't see that the two transparent spars the size of small dates were diamonds.
Li An looked at it again and said: "The precious ones are these three things, the others are all good jewelry, and the gems inlaid on it are also average, but I remember that there is a very good piece of jade, it is estimated that it is given away, stinky boy, you will make a fortune if you have these three pieces of jewelry, but I advise you not to sell it, that piece of emerald is known as the king of emeralds, and its value is not in money, but in rarity." ”
Guo Song took out a piece of jade from his bosom, which he had found from a Shatuo centurion in the Hexi Corridor, as well as an emerald the size of a peanut kernel and a piece of turquoise, which he had bought from a stall in Lingzhou.
"Uncle An will help me look at this again!"
Li An's eyes lit up, "This is mutton fat and beautiful jade!" ”
He took the beautiful jade in his hand and couldn't put it down and thought it out repeatedly, and praised it: "Good quality, white and greasy, no cracks, no stone flowers, holding like mutton fat, good things!" ”
"What about these two?"
Li An glanced at it, "The turquoise is not bad, it can be worth ten yuan, but your little emerald green is too bad, at most two or three yuan, you can compare it yourself." ”
In fact, Guo Song has already seen that compared with the king of emeralds, his little emerald is like a dead fish's eyes, the difference is more than 108,000 miles, but he thought he was taking advantage of it at the time, and the Sogdian who sold gems had long known it, and deliberately dug a pit to make himself jump!
Now Guo Song finally understands a truth, what he spends money to buy will always be pitted by others, and only those who are snatched from others will be good things, the king of emeralds is like this, mutton fat and jade are like this, and it seems that the white tiger skin is also like this.
"Uncle An likes it, and this piece of jade will be given to you."
Li An really couldn't put it down, he smiled: "I'm really reluctant to pay you back, so be it!" I bought it with a thousand yuan, brother, I'll tell you the truth, the market price of this piece of mutton fat jade is about four hundred yuan, but the problem is that you can't buy it with money, don't think that I give you more money, it's hard to buy a good heart. ”
"Uncle An likes it!"
In fact, Guo Song also likes this piece of beautiful jade, but Uncle An is a very useful person, he can't use the grace of saving his life to talk about everything, and he also needs to pay to make friends.
Li An said again: "I am responsible for helping you find someone to polish the two diamonds, if you don't have enough money to buy the store, you can sell the diamonds, although the diamonds are very valuable, they are not rare, I can help you sell them to Princess Xinping, she likes diamonds the most, and she is very rich, as long as she likes it, she never considers the market price." ”
"Isn't that a big deal?" Guo Song said with a smile.
"You can't say that, there is a heritage of precious jewelry, and when you reach the next generation, you will find that you sell cheaply, so ah, who suffers is not necessarily!"
"I understand, then please Uncle An!"
