Chapter 304: Earrings
"Break the seal? How do I break the seal? Wang Fusheng asked curiously.
"Of course it's here." Xingchenzi pointed to his eyes.
"Hitomi?"
"That's right, it's Hitomi. However, not everyone who knows pupil art can identify things, and just because you see it doesn't mean that others can see it too. A complete identification is the property of what you see and then you can show it for others to see. ”
"Is there anything else in this?"
"You turn on the pupil technique and look at this bunch of things." Xingchenzi did not answer Wang Fusheng's question, but pointed to the thing in front of him.
"Then I'll try." Wang Fusheng nodded, if there is really the support of force and spiritual power in the game, the pupil of the dark night will naturally use it if you want. However, this is reality, Wang Fusheng has no force in his body at all. However, although there is a red sun map on the top of the head. However, because of the environment where the island is located, the yin power here is very strong. Therefore, it is much easier to use the Night Pupil, even without the support of force, than outside.
The pupil of the dark night opened Wang Fusheng's eyes, and the world was all dark, when his eyes were on the pile of things in front of him. A few bits of light appeared in the dark world, and these bright spots were like fireflies in the night. Although the light is not extremely dazzling, it is very obvious in the dark night. Seeing these points of light, Wang Fusheng stretched out his hand, these things were picked up from the fire.
"The vision is not bad." Seeing what Wang Fusheng picked out, Xingchenzi nodded.
"I can see the properties of these things." Launching the Pupil of the Night, Wang Fusheng's face was a little pale, and there was not enough force to support him, even if the yin power around him was strong, Wang Fusheng's spiritual power was lost a lot. However, when I saw the things in my hands that originally looked like garbage, they actually showed their attributes.
"These are hidden attributes, but they can only be seen by you. If you want others to see it, you have to go one step further to unblock. But you haven't reached the Pupil realm yet. Wait until you get to that realm, and now you can see if there are any other treasures in here. ”
"Other babies." Wang Fusheng looked at the garbage piled up in front of him. I picked out a few more items from it and looked at them carefully. However, recalling that the points of light that the pupil of the dark night saw just now seemed to have been picked out by himself, Wang Fusheng shook his head and said, "I can't see any other treasures." ”
"It's not enough to have pupil skills in this industry, you have to have a lot of experience. Because some things are completely sealed, there is not the slightest breath leakage, and it is difficult to find even with the pupil technique. That's when you're going to have to rely on something else, like this one. Xingchenzi took out an adult's fist-sized dusty thing from the thing and handed it to Wang Fusheng.
"What is this?" As a result, Xingchenzi handed over something, Wang Fusheng curiously opened the pupil of the dark night and looked at it. But no valuable information was found. I put it next to my nose and asked, and there was a fishy smell, which seemed to be the stench of rotting corpses that had been with the dead for a long time.
"It's because it smells fishy, so it's a treasure. The antiseptic techniques of the ancients are much more reliable than the current refrigerator preservatives. Xingchenzi showed a rare trace of excitement on his face.
"This thing is a baby?" Wang Fusheng asked with some surprise, and took something that looked like a fossil in his hand and looked at it carefully, but he still couldn't see what was going on.
"It's not just a treasure, it's a holy medicine for those ghosts." Xingchenzi took the things. Put it on his nose and sniffed: "It should be well preserved, and it will be almost dry under this red sun map in a few days." At that time, it was estimated that the shopkeeper Wu could find out that this was a treasure without pupil techniques, but now it belongs to me. ”
"What the hell is this?" Wang Fusheng became even more curious.
"Ambergris."
"Ambergris? Is there really a dragon in this world? Wang Fusheng was taken aback.
"Dragons may exist, but I haven't seen them. But don't judge it literally, and don't listen to what is false. Although this thing is called ambergris, it is not really dragon saliva. Rather, it is something formed inside the whale's intestinal stem, which is somewhat similar to the formation of bezoar in the belly of a cow.
When it was discovered, no one knew what it was, and the alchemists in the palace thought it was a condensation of saliva from dragons in the sea. Something that is formed over time. That's why it's called ambergris. In fact, ancient people did not have a clear understanding of whales because whales have large bodies. Plus touch the mystery in the sea. Therefore it is seen as a dragon.
However, legend has it that whales have dragon blood, and one of their populations is called dragon whales, which have some dragon characteristics. So this thing is formed by the accumulation of dragon saliva over time, although it is a bit absurd, but it may really have something to do with dragons. ”
"Although I haven't seen ambergris, but I've heard that this kind of thing is not a tribute to the emperor in ancient times? And this thing should be fragrant, but why does this thing smell fishy? Is it something that forms in the gut of a whale, is it whale poop? ”
"It's good to have a little common sense. I really don't know how you used to mix? The things in the intestinal infarction are considered semi-digestible things, and they are in the intermediate stage of being absorbed into nutrients and turning into waste. It's a similar concept to that, but it's the part that won't be absorbed.
This thing has just been spit out of the whale's belly, or it stinks after being taken out. When dried, it has a long-lasting aroma that is refreshing and eye-catching when ignited. Because this thing has a dragon character, it was the emperor's exclusive product in ancient times. Ordinary ministers and princes only dare to use it secretly. Ambergris the size of a soybean is at least five hundred taels of gold. It is more valuable than agarwood, which is known as the diamond of plants. ”
"It's so valuable, isn't such a big piece worth a fortune?" Wang Fusheng was stunned, although he was involved in some luxury goods. After all, sometimes you need to dress up in disguise to perform tasks, and some identities require some upper-class experience. But the size of a soybean is worth a fist, and it's worth five million taels of gold, which is too expensive. It is indeed incomparable to diamonds.
"It's just the market price with no market, and you really go to buy it and meet someone who needs it urgently. Doubling the price is not a problem. Xingchenzi couldn't put it down, playing with the ambergris in his hand.
"You just said you bought this for the ghost, why did the ghost buy this thing?"
"In the miscellaneous records, it is recorded that ambergris is condensed by the purification of dragon nature and has a strange fragrance. Ignition is refreshing and psychic. ”
"Psychic? What's that for? ”
"Psychic means that ghosts can see people, and people can see ghosts. In the normal world, ghosts and humans belong to two worlds. Ghosts are nothingness in the eyes of man, and they cannot be seen or touched. In the same way, man is also empty in the eyes of ghosts, unable to see or touch. This is because people and ghosts have different paths, although they seem to be in the same world, they are separated by yin and yang, just like a different dimension and do not touch each other.
But with this thing it's different. Lighting it can channel spirits and make people see ghosts. Ghosts can also see people. And they can touch each other, and there is no difference between them and people. You must know that there are many big people in Ludao after death, and there are always some things that are not explained clearly. Or the will has been tampered with or something.
As long as he ignites this within a certain period of time, he is equivalent to resurrection. There are many things that can be done, perhaps the fate of a company, the fate of a family, or even the fate of a country. And even the history after that. It's possible that it will change because of his 'resurrection' this time, do you think this thing is worth selling to ghosts? ”
"It's not a lot of money for the dead, is it?" Wang Fusheng scratched his head a little dazedly, although China is now developed. But there are still many inherent ideas flowing in the bones. For example, the virginity complex of Chinese men. Another example is some old rules, which do not disappear with the change of time. Especially in some large families, rules are one of the bases for measuring whether a large family is a nouveau riche.
So although Wang Fusheng has seen a lot of dead people on the battlefield, sometimes he will take clothes from dead people in order to survive. But he's making a fortune from the ghosts of the dead. This made Wang Fusheng feel a little awkward.
"It feels awkward because your mind hasn't been converted yet. Although they turned into ghosts after death, they only had to enter the underworld. Then his status in the underworld is the same as living, and you think that making money from them is the same as making money from foreigners. Besides, this kind of thing is what you want me to do, and you can't let me take this thing and do good deeds. Specially for those ghosts who have no wish in life, but have a wish, and then let them reincarnate with peace of mind, right? ”
"What's wrong with this?" Wang Fusheng scratched his head and smirked. With his head messed up, he was indeed a little confused, and there was no resemblance to the strict instructor general before. Or maybe it's that the more you have achieved in a field, the more deeply rooted that achievement becomes, and it's much more difficult than others to make a radical change.
"Wait until your mind turns around." Xingchenzi glanced at Wang Fusheng speechlessly, then frowned and said, "Why hasn't this shopkeeper Wu come back, aren't you really afraid that the old man will use some means to take a few things from here?" ”
"It seems that I have been out of the country for a long time, and if I don't come back at this time, will something happen?" Wang Fusheng also frowned. After all, even if the defenses of the treasury are perfecting. No matter how confident the shopkeeper Wu is, how much he admires Xingchenzi. Reassuring two people to be in such an important treasury is definitely not something that a traitor will do.
"Get out of here and take a look."
"Are there any other treasures in here?" Although Wang Fusheng was a little unable to turn around for a while. But looking for a baby in the garbage is still quite exciting, the joy and excitement of finding a baby is definitely not comparable to the feeling of others directly sending the baby to their hands.
"There's nothing of value left. Oh yes, bring these few things you picked out, this and this. Throw the rest back, it's useless. Xingchenzi shook his head, then took out three things from the things Wang Fusheng picked out and said. Then the two men walked out of the storeroom with their things.
"No, no, even though you pay for the liquidated damages, and the price offered for this item is high enough. But there are some things that cannot be measured by money, this thing is still in the current period, and if I sell it, it will be a breach of contract. In addition to liquidated damages, breach of contract is also a loss of credibility. No amount of money can get it back.
The shop has been in this place for some years, although it is not as famous. But it is also a well-known pawnshop nearby, and this obviously breaks the rules, and the loss of credibility is great. Among the things charged by pawnshops, the most profitable part is the things that some people are reluctant to pawn, but they have to pawn in a hurry.
These things tend to be redeemed at a very high price. And there is also a time limit. I'm just sitting and waiting to collect the money, and it's not certain when those things that die directly will be sold. It's a lot of money. So if you lose your reputation this time, you won't come to me to pawn when others are in need of money in the future.
Because they were afraid that when their redemption deadline had not yet arrived, I asked to sell their pawned things for profit. If this bad reputation spreads, then I won't be able to do this business in the future, and this loss is too great. "The two men who came out of the warehouse have not yet reached the front hall. I heard the voice of Shopkeeper Wu a little entangled.
That's right, not anger, not joy, but tangled. Obviously, the shopkeeper Wu was tempted by the price offered by the other party. There is only one reason why a profiteer can give up the business on Xingchenzi's side and go to negotiate business with others. That is, the latter is more lucrative than the former. But the heart is moved and afraid of losing credibility, which is the standard hemp rod to beat the wolf at both ends. So Shopkeeper Wu was entangled, but listened to Shopkeeper Wu's shaking head. If the other party's price is a little higher, he can ignore any credibility or discredit.
"There's really no way around it, though I really want it. But I have so much money on hand, if you don't want to sell it. Then we can only wait for next time. The woman wanted to increase the price, because he was bound to get it. But the man standing behind her tugged at her.
The man finally realized where he had just sensed something was wrong. That is, the young lady of her own family showed too much attention to the earrings and was too determined to win. This is obviously shouting loudly to the shopkeeper Wu in front of him: "I'm a fat sheep, hurry up and slaughter me." ”
And the truth is just as the man guessed, Shopkeeper Wu is such a shrewd businessman. When I saw that I had encountered this kind of fat sheep, I even forgot about Xingchenzi and Wang Fusheng in the warehouse, and began to show a tangled and difficult choice here, waiting for the woman to continue to increase the price.
But fortunately, even if the man came to his senses and secretly pulled his own lady, the woman was obviously not a stupid person. Just now, I was just a little anxious because I wanted to get the jade pendant too much. At this time, he was pulled by his own men. She was stunned at first. Then she also came to her senses, so she began to take a sip of tea with an eager face. Then he shook his head and said with a look of pity. It seems that he is really shy and can't afford the price that Shopkeeper Wu wants.
The woman's answer made the shopkeeper Wu a little waxy. The reason why he was so entangled just now was in addition to putting gold on his face. The real purpose of the shopkeeper Wu is to ask the woman to raise the price above. After all, such a big fat sheep was sent to the door, if he didn't slaughter it ruthlessly, Shopkeeper Wu would feel sorry for passing this shop to his father, and the grandfather of his grandfather who created this shop.
"Shopkeeper Wu has an important guest here. I said why did you leave me in the storeroom and ignore me. Hearing the conversation inside, Xingchenzi's expression moved, and then he walked in with a smile, and there was a bit of blame in his tone for leaving the shopkeeper Wu alone. But it's more of a feeling that he and Shopkeeper Wu are particularly familiar.
"Oops, oops, sin. Sin. I forgot about the master here. Come on, come on, master, please take a seat, this young lady wants to buy that pair of earrings. But the current period of earrings has not yet arrived, and I am also a little entangled here. After all, it's too much of a loss not to do such a big business, after all, it's hard to say whether the person who pawned the earrings came back to redeem it. But if you sell it, isn't it obviously a violation of the rules? Now that you're here, Master, give me an idea. Seeing Xingchenzi coming in, Shopkeeper Wu's eyes lit up.
The face that originally seemed to be Maitreya Buddha was even more smiling, and the smile squeezed the eyes into only two slits. People who don't know Lu Dao may really think that Shopkeeper Wu and Xingchenzi are really good friends. But the two parties, Xingchenzi and Shopkeeper Wu, know it.
That is, the shopkeeper Wu was a little uncertain, and he didn't immediately agree to the woman's price transaction just now. In addition to wanting to slaughter a fat sheep and let the woman have some blood, more importantly, he didn't know how much the earrings were worth. Therefore, at this time, Xingchenzi came over and the shopkeeper Wu immediately explained enthusiastically, and then hinted at Xingchenzi in his words, hoping that Xingchenzi could give him some advice. After all, the thing was identified by Xingchenzi, and he knew the value of earrings better than Shopkeeper Wu.
"It's really a big deal to open your door and do business and damage your reputation. However, it is also depressing if such a big customer cannot complete the transaction when he comes to the door. Xingchenzi turned around and turned directly into a peacemaker, and the old man spoke.
"Yes, yes, I don't know how to choose it." Shopkeeper Wu's constant nodding and tangled appearance was revealed again.
"By the way, this lady is going to buy that pair of earrings. Is it convenient for the shopkeeper Wu to take out the pair of earrings for me to see, I can't give my opinion if I haven't seen it, right? Xingchenzi began to talk nonsense with his eyes open.
"This is nature, it's this pair of earrings, please take a look." Shopkeeper Wu looked surprised, as if he could solve the dilemma in front of him as long as he let Xingchenzi take a look. (To be continued......)
