Chapter 126 Trouble at the door

The shopkeeper of the money village is a fit man in his forties, the left half is a strong man with a dark complexion, and the right side is a fair-skinned fat man, which looks strange, but Huang Xue has seen a lot of Rouli people today, and he has long been surprised.

The shopkeeper saw that Huang Xue was dressed in a cold manner, still holding a big basin, and Ren Kang was an older single man, who didn't look like a rich man, so he was a little disdainful, stepped forward to block the two, and shouted: "Three, this is a money bank, it is to exchange large sums of money and pawn valuables, three of you are afraid that you have entered the wrong door, right?"

Ren Kang was drunk by this shopkeeper, and he was suddenly habitually a little afraid, and he didn't dare to speak for a long time. Huang Xue was stunned for a moment, obviously there were two people, and the title of "three" still made her a little unaccustomed, but she also reacted instantly, this is treating herself as two people.

This kind of money shopkeeper looks like he hates the poor and loves the rich wherever he appears, and he can't imagine that this bad atmosphere has also spread to this island thousands of miles away.

She was most tired of people of this kind of power, so she didn't bother with it, and opened the big colored shell in her hand, and said, "Shopkeeper, do you see if this money can be exchanged with you? If not, we will go elsewhere." ”

The shopkeeper originally looked like a dog looking down on people, but when he saw what Huang Xue was holding, his eyes suddenly straightened. The big colored shellfish was wrapped in shell noodles by Huang Xue's clothes, and he didn't care about it, but those small colored shells are all amazing in size and in excellent condition, and they are by no means ordinary coins.

Suddenly, he noticed that the scallops had been soaked in water, but the two scallops were tightly closed. This discovery made the horror in his heart unbearable, and anyone with common sense knew that it proved that these colored shells were actually living creatures. He stared at those colored shells for a long time before he squirmed his lips and exclaimed, "This ...... Is this money alive?!"

Huang Xue smiled: "Exactly, can it be exchanged?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Naturally, naturally, the three of you please come in." With that, he hurriedly led the two into the store.

invited the two to sit down, and then ordered the guy on the side to pour tea for the two. Huang Xue wanted to put the thing she was holding on the ground, but Dacai Baili was filled with water and was a little unstable on the ground, so she still held it in her arms.

The shopkeeper cautiously stepped forward, took a child's palm-sized live color shell, looked back and forth, secretly glanced at Huang Xue and Ren Kang, and said tentatively: "Such a live shell, when it can be worth four thousand dollars, what do the three of you think?"

He said that he was alive, the so-called no treacherous business, Caibei's shell meat is extremely precious, his offer is a thousand dollars, and I don't know if it will be discovered by the person in front of him.

Ren Kang didn't have much knowledge, so he naturally didn't dare to speak at this time. Although Huang Xue saw that the shopkeeper was attentive, he didn't care much about it, so he said leisurely: "Yes." ”

The shopkeeper was overjoyed, and in his eyes at this time, the three people opposite him were no different from fat sheep. He took a live shell the size of an adult's palm again, and said, "Such a live shell is worth 8,000 yuan." "This time, he's gone for two thousand.

Huang Xue smiled faintly, although these colored shells are very valuable in this Rouli country, they are no different from earth and stone in her eyes. She didn't want to test the shopkeeper slowly, so she suddenly took off all the clothes that wrapped the big colored shell underneath, and said, "How much is such a shell worth?"

"This ...... This is ......" The shopkeeper was taken aback, looked at the big colorful shellfish carefully, and suddenly said to Huang Xue: "Who are you?"

This shopkeeper has been working in the industry for half his life, and he can be regarded as having some knowledge, but he has never seen such a big color shell. However, a long time ago, I heard the old shopkeeper mention that there is a pot-sized colored shell in Rouli China, which is worth tens of millions! More importantly, according to the old shopkeeper, the colored shellfish is not among the people, but is collected in the treasure house of the royal family.

But now, this heavy treasure has appeared in his shop, which inevitably makes his heart full of suspicions.

Huang Xue didn't know the legend of the big colored shell, and still said lightly: "You don't care about our identity, I just ask you, how much is this shell worth?"

The shopkeeper's heart moved, this royal treasure appeared here, there are only two possibilities, first, these three people in front of him are members of the royal family, but how can the people of the royal family not know the value of the treasure? Then, there is only the second possibility, these two people are thieves, stole the royal treasure, and then came to sell the stolen goods here.

Looking at the three people in front of him carefully, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and hurriedly turned around and gave the guy on the side a look. The man was his son, who had followed him for many years, and in an instant he understood, turned around and quietly went out, and closed the door of the shop with his backhand.

Seeing the guy go out, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face, and said, "Don't worry, the three of you, this treasure is worth a lot, let me calculate it slowly." ”

Huang Xue said while sipping tea: "It's okay, then you take a closer look." ”

The shopkeeper found a large wooden basin filled with water, poured out all the colored shells in the big colored shells, and then he held the large colored shells and carefully examined them, and now it was time to see a stick of incense, but still only checked, and praised in his mouth, but he did not say a superfluous word.

With the passage of time, Huang Xue gradually felt a little impatient in her heart. Finally, she couldn't help but speak: "Shopkeeper, have you finished reading it? How much is this colorful shell worth? You have already spent a lot of time." ”

The shopkeeper wiped the beads of sweat from the corners of his forehead, and still explained with a smile on his face: "Your Excellency, please wait, it will be fine immediately, it will be fine immediately." It's just that this colored shell is really precious, I'm just afraid that I won't look at it carefully enough and misestimate its value......"

At this moment, there was a sound of messy footsteps outside the Qian Village, and then the voice of the shopkeeper came in: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is my shop, and those thieves are inside." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he smiled, took a few steps back, retreated to a corner of the hall, and then looked at Huang Xue with a vigilant face: "Three, your identity has been revealed, and now that the official army has arrived at the door, you better hurry up and arrest it." ”

Huang Xue stood up and immediately understood what was happening, she squinted her eyes and said coldly, "Shopkeeper, what do you mean by this?"

The shopkeeper pointed at Huang Xue and said: "You three civilians, but you suddenly took out so much money, the money must come from the wrong way, and it is within my duty to report it to the government." ”

When Huang Xue heard this, she suddenly felt a little annoyed in her heart, she didn't want to make a thousand calculations, but she accidentally aroused the suspicion of others because of too much money. She looked at the shopkeeper coldly, and didn't know how to speak for a while.

Ren Kang listened to the shopkeeper's words, but he was suddenly startled, he jumped up suddenly, pointed at the shopkeeper and said, "You...... You are talking nonsense, this money was caught by our own hands in the sea, how can it come from the wrong way? We have no grievances with you, why do you want to frame us?"

The shopkeeper sneered: "Framed? These money are from the treasure house of the royal family, and they must have been stolen by you, and they came to my store to sell the stolen goods, so I advise you not to quibble, just admit your guilt obediently." ”

As soon as he had finished saying this, he saw the door of the shop be pushed open, and the shopkeeper walked in with more than twenty sergeants in armor. The guy pointed at Huang Xue and Ren Kang and said, "Master Jun, it's them!"

The officer in the lead, although his left and right faces are also very different, his hands and feet are of equal length, and his body is symmetrical, and he is really the most coordinated person Huang Xue has seen since he entered the city. Hearing this, he pushed the guy away, glanced Huang Xue and Ren Kang up and down, and said proudly: "You three, hurry up and arrest you, and follow me to see the city lord." ”

Huang Xue said coldly: "This general, what have we done, you want to arrest us." ”

The officer looked around, saw the big colored shell placed aside, and was also surprised, and said, "What crime? You have stolen the royal treasury, the evidence is conclusive, what are you pretending to be innocent here?"

Ren Kang on the side hurriedly defended: "Master Jun, all this money was caught by us in the sea, not stolen, and I also ask Master Jun to learn from it." ”

The officer sneered, "What nonsense, what can you do to make so much money in the sea?"

Huang Xue also opened her mouth to explain: "This general, this is indeed what we fished from the sea yesterday, you see, the flesh in this big colorful shell has not been shaved clean. ”

The officer didn't want to bother any longer, and said impatiently: "You should go and tell the city lord these quibbles." With that, he waved his hand to the accompanying sergeant and said, "Take them down for me." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, two sergeants immediately stepped forward behind him, carrying ropes in one hand and grabbing them with the other.

Ren Kang did not dare to dodge, and was immediately caught by a sergeant, and the rope was tied up as soon as it was wound.

Huang Xue was thinking hard about how to get out, and suddenly saw a hand grabbing her in the chest, and she was a little angry, and subconsciously blocked it with her right hand, and the internal force of the slight movement shocked the sergeant to retreat four or five steps before stopping.

When the sergeant saw that Huang Xue dared to resist, he said angrily, "You dare to arrest?" As he spoke, he pulled out the blade hanging from his waist. Probably due to the island's resources, the blade was a large sturdy wooden stick inlaid with the teeth of many unknown animals, and it looked like a huge mace.

A few more sergeants walked out, and they also took out their blades and pointed them at Huang Xue, looking at her with a wary expression.

At this time, Huang Xue was also a little hesitant in her heart, and she didn't know whether to continue to resist, or whether she should follow these to see the city lord first.

The former, she didn't know the strength of these Rouli people, whether she would be able to escape successfully. The latter, she did not understand the character of the city lord, if he spied on his money, it would be a sheep into the tiger's mouth.

After thinking about it for a while, she decided to try to resist first, after all, the people here don't seem to be very skilled, and with their own techniques, they may be able to escape. She had noticed that there was a river on the edge of the city, and if she had fled into it, she didn't believe that the Rouli would be able to catch her.

Thinking of this, she suddenly waved her hand, and the cloud-piercing arrow appeared in her right hand, pointing at the sergeants and saying, "I repeat, this money is really not stolen by us, don't force me." ”
