Gui Mingyue, who was over there, walked in front of this son, handed over the jade in his hand, and said, "Two thousand taels is enough." ”

"Why?" The man asked, puzzled.

Gui Mingyue smiled and quipped: "I want to make a friend with five hundred taels, I don't know if it's enough?" ”

The man laughed heartily and said, "Enough, enough, more." ”

After the two reported to each other's homes, they agreed to get together another day.

"Miss, but do you want to continue to buy stones?" Jin Qi'er forcibly suppressed her excitement, and earned two thousand taels in an instant.

Who knew that Gui Mingyue shook her head and said back to the inn.

On the way, Jin Qi'er finally couldn't help but ask excitedly: "Miss, how did you know that there was jade in that stone?" ”

Gui Mingyue thought about it, she was actually very puzzled, she glanced at each stone, several of them gave her a kind and pleasant feeling, and that one gave her this feeling even more. When they saw the silver pendant, they also looked at them with curious eyes, so they had to say: "I can't tell, in short, I feel as if there is a voice in this stone, which feels different from other stones." ”

So amazing? Why didn't we hear it...... Jin Qi'er can't figure it out, so she doesn't bother thinking about it anymore.

At dinner, Jin Qi'er and Yin Shen'er borrowed the small kitchen of the inn, buried their heads in it for a long time, and took out a bowl of fragrant longevity noodles.

Yu Hongbo gave a small and beautiful obsidian hand crossbow as a gift, and when he was in the Tubo tribe, he saw that Yue'er was serious about learning bows and arrows, so he thought of giving her one for self-defense. This crossbow is lighter and more dexterous than a bow and arrow, and has a long enough range to be used by girls.

The gift given by the tortoiseshell is a poison-avoiding pill, which was left by the tortoiseshell's mother, which is very precious, which can avoid Gu and cure all kinds of poisons.

Although the conditions are limited, everyone gave Gui Mingyue a happy birthday together.

At night, Gui Mingyue lazily read a few pages of idle books, heard the knocking sound outside the window, got up in confusion, put on his coat and opened the door.

"Well, a birthday gift for you." Li Mobai's palm is a jade pendant, the shape is like a dragon, not a dragon, not a beast, not a beast, it is said that the jade pendant is actually made of jade and not jade, like iron and not iron, and there is a sense of majesty in the simplicity.

"What is this? Looks too expensive for me to accept. ”

Li Mobai rolled his eyes and said, "What's valuable, I bought it from the market today." It cost me a full two taels of silver, can I increase my salary next month? ”

"Get out!" Gui Mingyue closed the door, and then the door opened again, stretched out a white little hand and quickly took the jade pendant from Li Mobai's hand, and the door closed again with a "bang".

Li Mobai looked at the palm of his hand, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

Yu Mansion in Nanyang County.

"The kids are asleep?" Gui Hongyuan asked.

Yu nodded, sighed and said: "Yue'er has been gone for two years, and I don't know what kind of suffering she has suffered outside, today is the birthday of the two sisters, but she can only be given to Xue'er alone." ”

"Yes, since Yue'er left, the house has been much more deserted, Xue'er has always been dislike to laugh, and the relationship with the two brothers is not as close as Yue'er is to them." Gui Hongyuan said.

"Your father and son are also too obvious today, obviously today is also Xue'er's birthday, and they are talking about how Yue'er is, Xue'er is deep and sensitive, and I'm afraid I will be unhappy again when I hear it." Knowing her daughter Mo Ruomu, seeing that Sister Xue went back to the room early to rest, she knew that she was sensitive and thoughtful again.

"Miss Gui, someone is looking for you outside." A few days later, in the morning, Xiao Er of the inn walked to the private room and said to Gui Mingyue, who was having breakfast.

It turned out that the person who came was the sand boy with a high nose and a long face, who made an appointment with Gui Mingyue to meet at the inn a few days ago.

"Let's go, Miss Mingyue, I'll take you somewhere." Sha Gongzi said.

Gui Mingyue brought the silver pendant with her, and Li Mobai followed with her as usual to protect it.

Sha Gongzi took them to a carriage, and the carriage drove northwest, and when they reached the foot of Kunlun Mountain, several people got out of the carriage.

Walking along the mountain road to the door of a hidden stone cave, Sha Gongzi took out an iron plate and handed it to the gatekeeper, who bowed down and let him go.

Gui Mingyue followed him into the underground, Rao lived two lives before and after, and he had seen a lot in the world, and Gui Mingyue couldn't help but be a little shocked.

It's an underground city right now!

The lights are bright, people come and go, but they are orderly.

Looking up, the ground is full of stalls, and the stalls are randomly piled with rough stones.

In the middle of the dungeon is a large round platform similar to that found in the gambling stone field above ground, but this one is larger and has more stones placed on it. Above the round platform are bright torches and night pearls, and the round platform is inlaid with various colored crystal gemstones.

The light of the torches and night pearls shined on the rough stones, and some of them could faintly see some different colors, which attracted people to buy more frantically, these people were obviously more wealthy than those in the daytime, but once they entered the underground gambling stone city, there was no doubt that ordinary gamblers were even more crazy.

"Miss, look, that stone can be seen faintly glowing green." The silver pendant, which has always been calm, will also be a little unbearable: "Do we want to buy it?" ”

Gui Mingyue shook her head with a smile and whispered, "Don't be fooled by the surface, this green color is actually because of the surrounding gems." Gui Mingyue couldn't explain the principles of reflection and refraction to her at once, so she just said it vaguely.

"Miss Mingyue can see the mechanism on this round platform at a glance?" Sha Gongzi said in surprise, it is difficult for outsiders to see the doorway here, this newly met Miss Gui is really extraordinary.

"It's just a coincidence," Gui Mingyue said modestly.

"Sha Gongzi, you are here, please take care of yourself." The people on the stage saw the son of the lord guarding the city, so they greeted him politely.

Sha Gongzi nodded, and took Gui Mingyue around the round platform and walked slowly for a week.

"Hey, it's you again?" Gui Mingyue saw the clever young man, the young man was startled at first, and when he saw that it was Gui Mingyue, he breathed a sigh of relief, timidly asked Miss Hello, and then peeked around a few times.

He snuck in, and if he was discovered, he would be beaten to death. But what can be done, those people on the ground look down on their youth and refuse to believe in their stone-cutting skills, and few people look for him, so they sneak into the dungeon to see if they can find some work, and if they can't earn any more money, they will starve to death.

"You follow us, and we'll help me cut the stone later." Gui Mingyue thinks that this young guy is clever and has good skills.

"Really...... It's true? You're still letting me cut stones? The young man asked excitedly.

Gui Mingyue nodded lightly and said, "Let's just say that you were brought in by us, but remember not to run around, don't cause trouble for me!" ”

"Uh-huh, got it." The young man hurriedly agreed, and then took a step back and followed behind Gui Mingyue with Li Mobai and them.

As he spoke, a man from the Tibetan kingdom cut out the finest glutinous rice jadeite, and then sold it to another merchant from the Central Plains for five thousand taels of silver.

Everyone was envious, and their strength was even stronger.

Gui Mingyue carefully recalled the rough stones she had seen, and then handed over the numbers of a few of them.

When it was her turn, the people on the stage reported the numbers of these pieces one by one, and there was only one of them, and someone participated in the bidding, and in the end, Gui Mingyue won the bid.

The silver pendant took out two silver tickets of one or two thousand, handed them over, and the stones were theirs.

The young man quickly set up his tools, took out one of the stones, and began to ponder it carefully by the light of the fire, and then cut off a piece along the lines of the surface of the stone. Then wipe the surface with a wet towel and hand it to Gui Mingyue with a smile.

"Wow! It's Hongfei! ”

"Someone opened a red feather?!"

"How's the water?"

"I haven't seen it yet, I'm cutting it again."

As soon as they encounter the situation of opening a good jade, people will spontaneously surround to feast their eyes, but also want to get lucky, just now someone opened a glutinous rice seed, and someone opened a red jade...... This has to make people's hearts itch and eager to try.

The young man made two more cuts according to the rules.

"Clear, bright, and transparent, it looks like an ice species!"

"Although it is not as good as that person's glutinous rice species, it can be regarded as a top grade."

And it is still red jade, jadeite, jadeite, red for jade, green for jade. It can be seen that the preciousness of the red feather, when encountering this kind of good water and positive color, it is also extremely rare, and it seems that it will be sold at a good price again.

"Three thousand taels, I bought it!" A local aristocratic woman dressed in a bright red brocade was the first to shout, she loved this piece of red jade very much, looked at the person who wanted to bargain charmingly and pungently, and said, "You are not allowed to fight with me." "Saying that, his eyes are wandering, and he is really a soul-stirring beauty.

After a long time, no one fought with her anymore.

After Hongfei took it in her hand, the aristocratic beauty said happily: "Thank you, little sister." "In fact, if you buy this piece of red fei at this price, you won't lose money when you return to Mingyue. Doing business, both parties are happy, it is the best, Gui Mingyue also smiled.

The young man didn't seem to be disturbed by the exchange here, picked up another larger piece of rough stone, and steadily wiped the skin and cut a piece of it, but there was no green. Changed to the other side and continued to cut, and after cutting, he still wiped it with a wet towel, this wipe didn't matter, the young man's pupils widened for a moment, and his hands suddenly sweated.

But he still handed the original stone to Gui Mingyue steadily, in fact, he was already extremely excited in his heart.

This is Kunshan jade! Gui Mingyue was extremely surprised, and her heart was pounding, this is the Kunshan jade she has been looking for.

If you are lucky, there is more jadeite in the rough, and jade is rare, jadeite is harder, and jade is softer. What's more, it's this yellowish white jade that seems to have a layer of grease on it!

"Oh my God! Someone opened mutton fat white jade! A shout, now everyone heard it, and they rushed over.

For millions of years, the sub-jade of mutton fat white jade has been soaked in the underground of the wasteland or oasis under the Kunlun Mountains, and the production is scarce and the value is extremely high.

"I haven't seen this kind of mutton fat white jade for many years." An old man who had some weight in this underground gambling stone city said.

The piece of mutton fat white jade in Gui Mingyue's hand has a grease-like luster, and the halo under the beam of the torch is very soft, with a slight yellow halo, like clotted fat.

This piece of jade is worth a fortune!

At this time, someone pushed aside the crowd, came to Gui Mingyue's side, bowed, and said, "This young lady, the city lord is invited." ”
