Chapter 035: Buying Stones
Jiang Xiaotuan thanked the stall owner, put down the copper plate and went to the antique street after eating and drinking.
She knew that it was impossible to pick up a treasure like the moon-to-moon hairpin every time, but she could make a difference, and let the pit daddy's system absorb some aura first, otherwise it would always be noisy.
Jiang Xiaotuan spared a circle in the antique street, but he didn't see Gou Fugui today, I don't know if he didn't come because he sold the baby cheaply, he was sick in bed, or if he had other things.
She wandered around a few stalls, ordinary gold and silverware were not treasures, unless they became long-established antiques in a few hundred years, otherwise they were ornaments.
She walked back and forth, after so many days of learning treasure appreciation knowledge, do you want to say that there is something eye-catching?
The answer is yes, it is a string of red sandalwood Buddha beads, whether it is the carving or design on it, it is a new material.
She also touched it just now, and while absorbing the aura to the system, she also took the opportunity to use her treasure appreciation knowledge to identify it, because she just touched it, but she still got fifty points, as for the price of this red sandalwood Buddha bead, one hundred taels is low.
The stall owner is not stupid, and good things naturally need good prices, anyway, the silver in her pocket is not enough.
Thirty taels of silver want to come to Taobao shellfish, it is still a little difficult.
"Jade, jade, five taels of silver to open one, no matter what treasure is opened, it is yours."
The legendary gambling stone?
In the previous life, Jiang Xiaotuan saw it on TV, that scene, not to mention how thrilling it was, gambling on stones was a knife of poverty, a knife of wealth, and a knife wearing a rag, and playing was a heartbeat.
However, the stones sold by the shouting stall owners were not very large, the big ones were about the size of their heads, and the small ones were the size of fists.
Otherwise it wouldn't be so cheap.
Turning antiques, she doesn't have enough money, and she has her own gold finger for small gambling stones.
Jiang Xiaotuan talked to the system, "Xiaokeng, eat and drink enough, shouldn't you exercise?" ”
System: It is said that people are not called small pits.
Jiang Xiaotuan said fiercely: Why don't you eat? Don't call you what the pit calls you, you can't feed it back and forth, not to mention that you are already very pitted, I really haven't seen anyone's system always want to eat.
System: Who am I for? You accompany me to the aura.
Jiang Xiaotuan saw that the system was really going to be angry, after all, he had to rely on it later, so he had to comfort him in a good voice, "Xiaokeng, don't be angry, didn't I bring you to inhale spiritual energy?" I've run away for nothing, so I can't go home empty-handed this time, right? ”
System pit: "Are you going to bet on stones?" ”
Jiang Xiaotuan nodded, "The parents of the one who gave birth to me, and the one who knows me is Xiaokeng, does he have any stones to buy?" ”
System: "It's too far away for me to smell, come closer." ”
Jiang Xiaotuan was thin and small, and she couldn't see clearly with her feet, she just glanced at the gap in the gathered crowd, but soon, the crowd gathered more and more, and the gap was gone, and she couldn't see anything.
The stone seller holds a cut jade in his hand, although it is not full of green, but if it is only sold for five taels of silver, it will not be a loss to buy it, and he will sell it to a jade shop, and look at the fineness of the jade, he should be able to earn some silver.
Jiang Xiaotuan was tempted, but she was not the only one who was tempted.
Even though she managed to squeeze in front of the crowd, because she was a little girl, the stone seller did not think that this was the person who wanted to buy his stone, but went to greet the big-bellied man who was extremely dressed in a satin robe, and at a glance he was the rich man.
According to the person who sold the stones, his stones were all left over from the gambling stone conference in Ningcheng, and then he described the grand scene of the gambling stone conference in Ningcheng in vivid colors.
What he said was foaming at the mouth, and everyone who listened was fascinated.
"Host, are you tempted?"
Since it was seen by the small pit, Jiang Xiaotuan did not deny it, and it was useless to deny it, "I was tempted, but there was no way, I was afraid that the silver in my hand would go to the gambling stone conference and return empty-handed, great, the stones there are definitely not cheap, thirty taels, I can only buy this kind of small stone." ”
"It's good that you are self-aware, but I have good news for you, I smell the fragrance in these stones, and it is very fragrant."
Jiang Xiaotuan didn't deal with the system on the first day, it said fragrant, that is, there was jade with good color, "Can you be sure which one it is?" ”
"No, there are too many stones, but it's a pity that you don't have a clair, otherwise you would be able to see through the epidermis."
"Then you still say."
The stone seller is still talking, Jiang Xiaotuan is already staring at those stones, which stone can make a treasure?
At first, the person who sold the stones probably didn't think that Jiang Xiaotuan wanted to buy stones, but when she looked at them for a long time, he also noticed, "Little sister, do you want to buy stones too?" ”
"yes, I want to buy one."
An older voice behind Jiang Xiaotuan persuaded: "Little girl, is it a joke to gamble on stones, do you understand stones at such a young age?" ”
"I don't understand! I'm lucky, though. Jiang Xiaotuan looked back and smiled at the old man.
The stone seller felt that Jiang Xiaotuan was a little interesting, so he glanced at the people in the front row while Jiang Xiaotuan was picking up stones, and then a young man stood up, "Boss, I want to buy it too, can you open the stone for me now?" ”
"Yes, pick whatever you want, five taels of silver a piece, and I'll open it for you when you pay the money."
The man squatted down beside Jiang Xiaotuan, picked up a stone casually and paid for it, and then the boss opened the stone in front of everyone.
The process of opening stones is very long, after all, there was no modern high technology in ancient times, and it all relied on manpower, but the longer the process, the stronger people's expectations.
Jiang Xiaotuan had just picked up a few pieces, and she didn't even smell which one of the small pits in the system was, and she wondered if it would be a good jade that had been bought by the young man just now.
If they were all bought, there would be no need for her to buy them.
Everyone's attention was on the stone, and Jiang Xiaotuan's eyes were also firmly fixed on the stone, and at the moment when the outer skin of the stone was cut off, he exclaimed, "Green." ”
The young man danced with joy, "I earned it." ”
He took the jade from the boss's hand, put it on his lips excitedly and kissed it twice, "This stone can be sold for twenty taels at least." ”
After working hard inside and out, he earned fifteen taels of silver, and he didn't do anything, which is too cost-effective.
The boss did not regret the jade, but was more excited than the buyer, and said loudly: "Have you seen it, there is a treasure here, I didn't lie to anyone, this little brother is a knowledgeable person at a glance, and he earned it as soon as he bought it, congratulations, congratulations." ”
"Little brother, since you are so lucky, why don't you buy another piece?"
The young man waved his hand and refused, "Good luck can't be used up all at once, you have to take it easy, I won't buy it." ”
Although he said he wouldn't buy it, he didn't leave, and when the people who saw the excitement saw this, they thought about it, and secretly pulled it to ask him to help him choose.
Jiang Xiaotuan really didn't think he was a nursery at first, but obviously Xiaokeng said that there was no taste at all for the stone, but he told the old man who dissuaded him before that he would definitely be able to open something.
If there was only one old man, Jiang Xiaotuan wouldn't be sure, but when others asked him, he didn't shy away from it, and really gave people ideas, but the ones he chose, Jiang Xiaotuan had asked the system Xiaokeng, and the answer given by Xiaokeng was the same, they were all stones.
Once or twice is accidental, and if there are too many times, there will be problems.
The young man held the stone and deliberately walked around in front of Jiang Xiaotuan, and after seeing that Jiang Xiaotuan ignored him, he changed his routine and took the initiative to talk, "Little sister, do you need me to help you pick a piece?" ”
"No need, you have to look at the edge of your eyes to buy stones, I can just pick them myself." Jiang Xiaotuan lightly refused.
The man didn't take Jiang Xiaotuan to heart, she was a little girl, even if she really bought it, what good things could she buy.
After the man opened the jade, the system Xiaokeng told Jiang Xiaotuan that the baby was still there, many times better than his.
Otherwise, Jiang Xiaotuan would have left early.
"Little sister, have you picked it out?" The boss is quite polite, yes, he cheated so much money, don't you laugh and cry?
In just a few moments, he had sold a dozen or so stones, and forty or fifty taels of silver went into his pocket.
Jiang Xiaotuan dragged in the pile of stones for a long time, and finally stopped on the stone that she had ignored a few times, at first she felt that the stone was too small to buy it was not cost-effective, and then she felt that the stone did not look like there was a treasure in it.
But she had basically touched all the stones she was arranging, and after being denied them one by one by the system pits, she reached out to the most inconspicuous small stone, only the size of her fist.
"Little sister, did you choose this piece?" The boss urged, "I'll open it for you together after you choose." ”
"But let's say it first, if you buy it, no matter whether you can open it or not, you have to be willing to gamble and lose, and you can't return it, even if your family comes to you, or you cry yourself, I won't give you a refund."
When everyone heard the boss say this, they all laughed, indeed, they also felt that it was hard to believe that a little girl dressed in ordinary clothes gambled on stones.
"Is that it?" Jiang Xiaotuan asked silently.
Except for the small pit in the system, no one could hear her voice, "It smells good." ”
"If you're mistaken, I'll starve you for a month." Jiang Xiaotuan threatened.
Then she handed the silver to the stall owner, but the stone was only in her hand, "Mine don't need to be opened." ”
The stall owner was a little confused by Jiang Xiaotuan's approach, "Then how do you open it?" ”
To be honest, Jiang Xiaotuan didn't believe him, after all, a liar has no integrity at all, what if he sees that the stone he chose has opened a treasure, what if he runs away?
"I have my own way, you go and open it for others, you take the silver, I'll go."
The boss scratched his head and sneered, thinking that this girl was really strange, could it be that she was stupid?
