When they first met, Shen Linglong didn't get straight to the point and asked about things.

Instead, like an old friend who hadn't seen each other for years, he ate a meal at the same table.

After the meal, the sun in the first month of the year was not big, and Shen Linglong and Xu Zhiyuan sat in the courtyard basking in the sun and only felt warm all over their bodies.

Xu Zhiyuan skillfully brewed a pot of hot tea for Shen Linglong, and when the verdant tea was poured out, the tea fragrance overflowed.

Shen Linglong took a sip and praised: "Good tea." ”

Xu Zhiyuan said: "It's new tea, there are a lot of tea trees on the mountain next to it, and after some management, new tea is produced, and I think it's very good." ”

Listening to Xu Zhiyuan talk about tea, Shen Linglong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Interested in this camellia?" ”

Xu Zhiyuan shook his head: "I haven't been able to get it done yet, and then I can get the camellia, the action is so big, I'm afraid I'm going to be caught in the pigtails." ”

As he spoke, he shook the beautiful teacup, and he didn't know what he thought, so he curled his lips and said, "Just drink some at home, it's good to be a wild fun." ”

Seeing that Xu Zhiyuan was not depressed because of the problems in front of him, but was still enjoying life, Shen Linglong was also much more relieved.

Those who are in a hurry will achieve nothing.

Mindset is extremely important in many cases.

Wait until the tea is cool, and Shen Linglong will drink it all.

After putting down the teacup, Shen Linglong asked: "When Ruonan said the problem, I asked her, why did you start trading in advance, and she told me, you have met someone who is forced to buy and sell?" ”

Xu Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Yang Luogang." After coming here, because Gu Silan is here, I can only settle in this place, most of the mountains you mentioned are far away from this side, fortunately, you don't need to enter the town, enter the city, otherwise it will be difficult to move an inch before you have a good relationship with the people here. ”

"Probably because I often run into the mountains and inquire about the situation, the movement is too big, and people find out, and he wants the rough stone...... Grab the handle in someone's hand, I have no choice but to give him the rough stone. But this will cause me a lot of damage in the future, I have to stop the loss, so I started to learn to look at the stones, and it is useless to keep the waste stones, so I want to make them into handicrafts and let Ren Ruonan sell them, and let her establish a network of relationships in the city. ”

After listening to the original story, Shen Linglong was actually no different from what Ren Ruonan said.

It's just that Shen Linglong doesn't understand a little: "Rough stone? What does he want for the rough stone? Instead of buying expensive jade cheaply? ”

Xu Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Yes, it's the original stone, because I'm not sure if there is jade in it, so the price is low." ”

Shen Linglong sneered and said, "It seems that this Yang Luogang wants to gamble on jade." ”

The word gambling jade, in fact, has appeared before, but it has been curbed in recent years.

A knife cut down, wealth in the sky. Gambling on jade is thrilling.

Buy a bunch of rough stones cheaply, take them out and mark the price clearly, and make a sure profit.

Obviously, Xu Zhiyuan also knows this: "Yes, I think so too, but I have explored many places, but I have not seen any black market where you can gamble on stones." I couldn't catch his pigtails at all, I couldn't kill him, so I had to provide him with a stone that looked like it could produce top-grade jade for so long. ”

Shen Linglong asked, "How many mountains have you been discovered?" ”

Xu Zhiyuan sighed and said, "One." The mountain is nearby, especially inside, and there is a danger, and when Ah Quan passed before, there was a mudslide during the heavy rain, which made it even more dangerous. ”

This kind of dangerous exploration, Yang Luogang didn't want to take risks, so he asked Xu Zhiyuan to go, he paid for it, or forced it to buy.

"I think he seems to think that if I can find a mountain, I can find a second." Xu Zhiyuan's worry is here, "He wants to use me as a cash cow." ”

Shen Linglong pursed his lips and motioned for Xu Zhiyuan to add more tea to himself.

Because the spout has no sieve, the tea stalk falls into the teacup along with the tea, Shen Linglong looked at a tea stalk standing up in the tea, she smiled coldly: "The tea stalk is erected, it looks like good luck!" ”

Xu Zhiyuan: "? ”

He didn't understand Shen Linglong's words, his elegant face was still as light as clear water, and he asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Shen Linglong raised his eyebrows and said, "Haven't you heard of superstition? When pouring tea, if the tea stalk is erected, good luck will happen. ”

Xu Zhiyuan was silent, and looked at Shen Linglong silently.

"Okay, okay, I'm not kidding." Shen Linglong doesn't like to stare at herself expressionlessly, if she is at the negotiation table, she can calm down, but there is no need for this in front of her friends, "When and where will you meet the other party the day after tomorrow, has the original stone been prepared for him?" ”

Talking about the business again, Xu Zhiyuan said: "Yes, it's ready, three relatively large rough stones, five small ones, and there is a jade pattern on them, which meets his requirements." ”

"It's at home, it should come in the middle of the night, and there are many people during the day."

Shen Linglong nodded: "Okay, I'll accompany you then, and you take me to meet each other." ”

Xu Zhiyuan glanced at her: "You don't plan to tell me your method?" ”

"Huh?" Shen Linglong asked a little strangely, "Method?" If he didn't violate discipline and law, of course it would be common prosperity, the world is so big, there are so many things to make money, isn't it good for everyone to get rich together? ”

Xu Zhiyuan: "......"

"What if it's a violation of discipline and law?"

Shen Linglong turned his head to look at Xu Zhiyuan and smiled slightly: "Then it's a pity, I don't cooperate with dangerous elements." ”

——

On the night of the appointment, the stars in the mountains were very bright and the temperature was low.

Shen Linglong and Ren Ruonan slept in the same room and did not extinguish the candles.

Because Shen Linglong's night vision is not very good, after the lights are turned off, she will instinctively want to sleep to cover up the fact that she is blind in the night.

The lady's watch on her left wrist, when the hour hand was going to twelve, there was a banging on the door of the courtyard.

Knock three times and stop.

After Shen Linglong nodded with Ren Ruonan, she dressed and walked out of the door, and went around to the hall, which was empty at the moment, but there were several candles lit, illuminating the entire hall.

The wide open door allowed Shen Linglong to see Xu Zhiyuan walking towards the courtyard door at a glance, as well as Fu Yiquan.

Soon, they brought in five people.

Everyone is tall and big, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and it is not easy to provoke at first glance.

At the head was a young, handsome short young man.

He had a cigarette in his mouth, and his whole person looked cool and dragged.

and the gambling stone boss in Shen Linglong's association, there is a world of difference.

Seeing Shen Linglong, the young man's eyes narrowed, took the cigarette from his mouth, and spit out choking second-hand smoke towards Fu Yiquan: "Boy, I slapped you last time, and now I am looking for your family to support you?" ”

Shen Linglong frowned and looked at Fu Yiquan.

Previously, this short and handsome young man had beaten Fu Yiquan?

Shen Linglong asked a little unhappily, "Have you beaten him?" Why? ”

No matter how the short young man coughed Fu Yiquan, who was pulled by his collar and spit second-hand smoke, he shook off Fu Yiquan's collar and walked over a little excitedly.

He walks with a very light step and a bit of melody, as if he is dancing.

When he was three or four meters away from Shen Linglong, Xu Zhiyuan said coldly: "Mr. Yang, if you still want to continue to cooperate with me, I hope you don't go any further. ”

Yang Luogang turned his head suddenly: "You threaten me? ”

Xu Zhiyuan said: "Yes. ”

"She's your woman?" Yang Luogang furrowed his brows, pointed at Shen Linglong and asked, "You woman, aren't you an older girl?" ”

Xu Zhiyuan laughed and did not answer, but looked at Shen Linglong, as if he wanted Shen Linglong to answer this question.

After Shen Linglong gave him a slightly calming look, she stared at Yang Luogang and asked, "You haven't answered me yet, why did you beat him." ”

Yang Luogang chuckled: "Why? Of course, because he has this face, but he is a man, and he is taller than me. ”

This face?

Shen Linglong was shocked, her and Fu Yiquan's appearance was biased towards Fan Linyu, could it be said that this Yang Luogang knew Fan Linyu? Is Fan Linyu's emotional debt again?

But at this age, it's not quite like it!

Shen Linglong was thinking a lot in his heart, but his face was not full of dew, and he deliberately asked: "So, do you like this face, this kind of look?" ”

Yang Luogang was frank: "Yes, my ideal lover/person should look like this, but it's a pity that he is so tall and still a man." After speaking, his gaze fell back to Shen Linglong, and said with a light smile: "I didn't expect that he also has a relative, who was born completely to my liking." ”

"Don't do anything to my sister!" When Yang Luogang walked towards Shen Linglong as he spoke, trying to touch Shen Linglong's face, Fu Yiquan rushed out and blocked Shen Linglong, waiting for Yang Luogang viciously, wanting to die as a beast, dying and struggling.

With this posture, looking at Xu Zhiyuan's attitude, Shen Linglong knew that they were completely at a disadvantage.

Shen Linglong thought for a while, opened Fu Yiquan, fearlessly touched Yang Luogang's hand to his face, and asked faintly: "Yang Luocheng, do you know each other?" ”

Yang Luogang was stunned, and his expression was a little awe-inspiring.

This similar name seems to be not a coincidence, but it is really related.

After being silent for a long time, Yang Luogang stared at Shen Linglong and asked, "You and my eldest brother got together?" ”

Shen Linglong denied: "Of course not, I already have a husband." ”

"As long as your husband is not my eldest brother, there is no problem." Yang Luogang raised his chin and looked at Shen Linglong quite proudly, "How about divorcing your husband and being my lover/person?" ”

Shen Linglong chuckled: "It seems that you really like my skin, and you don't even care if I've been married or had children." ”

Yang Luogang sighed and asked rhetorically: "Why should I care about these little things?" Your face is the lover of my dreams that I wanted when I was a teenager. ”

"What about the lucrative gambling stone business?" Shen Linglong took a step away and showed the original stone placed in the hall in front of Yang Luogang, "If it's a man compared to a lover/person, money is better, right?" ”

Yang Luogang's unobtrusive smile disappeared, and he asked with half-squinted eyes, "Are you the person behind Lao Xu?" ”

Shen Linglong replied, "Do you want more rough stones?" Want to sit on Jade Mountain? Think...... Let the big brother who is pressing on your head, get out of the way? ”

The last sentence made Yang Luogang's face change greatly.

He took a step back and stared at Shen Linglong: "Who the hell are you?!" ”

Shen Linglong smiled, more confident in his thoughts.

If Yang Luogang and his eldest brother had a close relationship, shared wealth and prosperity, and advanced and retreated together, when she said something like that just now, she should have burst out, and the bud that endangered the safety of his eldest brother's life would be strangled in the cradle.

But Yang Luogang was stunned and doubted her origin.

This is the fear of cold lips and teeth, and at the same time there is a little bit of anticipation.

Shen Linglong was extremely grateful at the moment that he had deliberately studied psychology in order to occupy an active position at the negotiation table, so that he could figure out the heart of this short young man with some small actions.

"Friends." Shen Linglong still didn't answer Yang Luogang's question, but said with a smile, "First come, first come, you should answer my question first." Do you want your big brother to stop suppressing you? Do you exceed your expectations of wanting me to be your lover/person? ”

This slightly shorter, but unusually handsome and cool beautiful man was silent for a long time.

He stared intently at Shen Linglong thinking, guessing.

After a long time, he said: "I think we are more suitable to be partners than lovers." ”
