Chapter 809: Chidang

When Shopkeeper Sun saw it, he didn't slack off, and hurriedly got up and looked inside the black lacquered wooden box. It's just that it doesn't matter if you look at it, he was so startled that he almost screamed "oops".

I saw that in the black lacquered wooden box, a pair of ancient incense burners were shaped like turtles, and the whole body was red like coals, especially the turtle-like copper stove lid was as thin as cicada wings, and the birds of prey and beasts carved on it were even more lifelike......

After looking at it, the shopkeeper Sun couldn't help but raise his head again to look at the person who came, the young man Wenjing had a small face, but he also did not lose his honest appearance. Shopkeeper Sun nodded, just waiting for the young man to shout the price.

But the young man was not in a hurry to shout the price, but took out a pair of ancient incense burners from the wooden box with great care, gently put them on the table, and then took out two small pieces of charcoal from the purse and lit them a few times. Immediately afterwards, he reached out and opened a pair of copper stove lids as thin as cicada wings one by one, and put the burning charcoal fire into the furnace. As the lid of the furnace was gently closed, a stunning scene appeared.

I saw a pair of ancient incense burners at the same time purple smoke rising up. Shopkeeper Sun jumped a few steps away, looked from a distance, and saw an ancient incense burner as if Guanyin was sitting on it; One has Maitreya Buddha smiling. The purple smoke rose to a height of more than two feet, and the smoke faded, but the whole pawnshop was fragrant. What's even more amazing is that with the burning of the charcoal fire, on the lids of the two copper stoves as thin as cicada wings, the birds and beasts of prey with line carvings are ready to move......

Shopkeeper Sun couldn't help but be very excited when he saw it, and he was sure that this pair of ancient incense burners was a treasure among treasures. However, after all, the shopkeeper Sun is old and serious, and he is quiet. He knew that it was time for the young man to ask for a price.

Sure enough, I saw that the young man hugged his fist at the shopkeeper Sun at this time, and said with a frank smile: "Since it is a pawnshop business, presumably the shopkeeper Sun must be a knowledgeable person, today I took a pair of ancestral treasures at home and demonstrated it in front of the shopkeeper Sun, in fact, I want to shout a high price." Then, without waiting for Shopkeeper Sun to speak, the young man let out another long sigh and told the truth.

It turned out that the young man's name was Wang Yuncheng, a native of Chang'an, who opened a silk village in the south of the Yangtze River, and did not want to suffer a fire in the near future, and the goods on the village were lost. A large sum of money is urgently needed to restore business. The family didn't have a lot of silver, so they wanted to use this pair of ancestral ancient incense burners to make 30,000 taels of silver from Sun's shopkeeper pawnshop and go to the rescue......

Wang Yuncheng was obviously afraid that the shopkeeper Sun would refuse, so he hurriedly looked at the shopkeeper Sun. But I never expected that after listening to this, Shopkeeper Sun carefully inspected the ancient incense burner again, and then waved his hand and agreed.

In the blink of an eye, the agreed deadline is here. On this day, the shopkeeper Sun had just sat down in front of the counter, and saw Wang Yuncheng rushing to redeem him.

Entering the pawnshop, Wang Yuncheng first gave a deep salute to the shopkeeper Sun, and then said: "This time, the shopkeeper Sun has done our Wang family a great favor." ”

As he spoke, he also gently pushed the pawn ticket and a wad of money tickets in front of Shopkeeper Sun. When Shopkeeper Sun saw it, he only smiled, and then waved his hand, and personally took the black lacquered wooden box and asked Wang Yuncheng to inspect it.

Wang Yuncheng didn't check it, and bowed his hand to Shopkeeper Sun, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Sun, let's light a charcoal fire to check it." ”

As he spoke, without waiting for Shopkeeper Sun to nod, Wang Yuncheng had reached out and took out the charcoal from the bag, and lit it with a few "clicks......

Needless to say, the next rare and strange landscape is about to reappear.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, the burning charcoal fire burned the thin copper stove lid red, but the strange landscape never appeared. Wang Yuncheng hurriedly tried again, but after trying several times, a pair of ancient incense burners were like magic, and the strange landscape never appeared. Wang Yuncheng couldn't help but glance at Shopkeeper Sun, shook his head angrily and said, "I'm afraid this ancient incense burner is not our Wang family's, right?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Sun Zhang suddenly became anxious, the key to the black lacquered wooden box has been kept by him, and after it was stored in the secret room, he has never touched it, besides, this black lacquered wooden box is well sealed, how can it not be their Wang family's right in a blink of an eye? He took the ancient incense burner and looked at it in a hurry.

As we all know, all incense burners are burned or roasted herbs and spices to produce aroma. Although the Wang family is individual, they can never deviate from their sect. Even if there is a mechanism in the furnace, there must be a place to distribute it. Shopkeeper Sun is obviously a connoisseur of antiques, and he carefully examines the inside and outside of the stove. Everything is the same as when it was first inspected, except for the tray where the charcoal fire is placed and a layer of fine charcoal ash that cannot be removed.

For a while, Shopkeeper Sun couldn't help complaining. He has been through countless pawns, big and small, and has never made any mistakes......

But at this point, he reluctantly hugged Wang Yuncheng and said: "Since the incense burner is not your Wang family's pair, according to the rules of the pawnshop, we can only consider ourselves unlucky and lose double the money." ”

Unexpectedly, Wang Yuncheng didn't do it, he told the shopkeeper Sun: The ancient incense burner is an ancestral treasure, passed down from generation to generation, and it is regarded as a life. In a word, Wang Yuncheng must redeem his pair of smoking ancient incense burners...... Otherwise, they will pay him three times the amount of money.

When the shopkeeper Sun heard this, he was immediately in a dilemma. On the one hand, he knew that in addition to the pair of ancient incense burners in his hand, he couldn't get a second pair of such ancient incense burners; On the other hand, if he loses double the amount of silver, Shopkeeper Sun thinks that with his old face, the owner Ashina Xian will not have anything to say. But if you compensate him with three times the money, not only will you not be able to open this mouth no matter what, but even Ashina Xian will not have so much money. In desperation, Shopkeeper Sun gritted his teeth, and he asked Wang Yuncheng to give him a grace period of three days to think of a way. When the three-day period was up, if he couldn't get the smoking ancient incense burner by then, he was willing to mortgage the pawnshop to him.

Seeing that Shopkeeper Sun said this, Wang Yuncheng couldn't insist on anything, so he had to nod in agreement.

Shopkeeper Sun reported the matter to Ashina Xian, and Ashina Xian has been comforting Shopkeeper Sun.

The three-day deadline came in the blink of an eye, and early in the morning, I saw Wang Yuncheng hurrying to Sun's shopkeeper's pawnshop. Shopkeeper Sun is not there, only Ashina is dedicated there.

Ashina said with a gloomy face: "I am the owner of the pawnshop, because of the incense burner, the shopkeeper Sun has apologized for his death, he left a letter to me before he died, let me put the pawnshop to your incense burner, with the name of his whole life." My family owes too much to the shopkeeper in my life, so I want to make this wish for him. This is the contract, and the pawnshop is yours. ”

Hearing that the shopkeeper Sun committed suicide, Wang Yuncheng's expression changed, but he was not polite and assigned the pawnshop to his name.

After Ashina Xian assigned the pawnshop to Wang Yuncheng, he locked himself in the study, did not eat or drink, and did not come out for two days.
