Although Min Bai was also a little anxious by Senior Brother Xue, he was still unhurried on his face. took the tea from the beautiful lady, and did not urge.

It was not easy for Xue Shen to continue to sell Guanzi, so he had to tell the truth.

Actually, there was really nothing good on that ship.

It was an ordinary merchant ship that dragged tea and silk, and the things had long been soaked and rotten, so they scooped up some broken boards and rotten masts. But the problem is that under that boat, there is a thousand-year-old tree.

"Gloomy Wood!"

The beautiful girl guessed instantly, and was very surprised.

Isn't this to blame her, didn't she see the tea in His Highness's hand, and it almost spilled out?

"Really?"

It is important to know that the gloomy wood is an ancient tree that has been soaked in water for thousands of years and is immortal.

Legend has it that the utensils made of this kind of wood can last for thousands of years. The ornaments of the carving can ward off evil spirits in the house.

Even emperors dreamed of having a coffin made of it.

Because this wood is rare, once it comes out, dignitaries and nobles always flock to it, and the price is more than gold.

If Xue Shen really digs a gloomy wood, then they will make a lot of money!

Min Bai thought about his poor family background who was despised by his senior sister, pretended to take a sip of tea, suppressed his shock, and then pretended to be calm and asked, "Will you lose your eyes?" ”

Don't say he's worried, Meiniang is also worried.

If you are mistaken, will you not rejoice in vain?

Xue Shen rolled his eyes, didn't speak, and only took out a small severed branch from his arms.

The beautiful girl took a look, and she really didn't know it. Although she has heard of the great name for a long time, she has never seen it with her own eyes.

can hand it to Min Bai again, but seeing that his eyes are tight, his face changes slightly, and he confirmed it instantly.

Its color is like ink, and it also carries an ancient and mysterious fragrance, which is the gloomy wood of legend.

Looking at the growth rings on it, the tree should be quite small.

Swallowing his saliva quietly, His Highness unconsciously lowered his voice, "How many people still know about this?" ”

Xue Shen was equally careful, "It's just me, and an old sailor." ”

He didn't notice the tree at first, but when he was cleaning the river, he noticed that there was an old boatman who was always wandering around, and his expression was a little strange.

After taking him down, the witty Lord Xue played some tricks and deceived the truth.

It turned out that the old boatman had been robbing the wreck with someone before, and he had found a gloomy wood underneath. But he didn't say anything, he originally planned to turn around and take advantage of the unpreparedness of others, and find someone to fish out the wood by himself, but who knew that the officers and soldiers came.

He was afraid of being noticed, so he drove the boat to stare at the movements of the officers and soldiers, but he was unlucky to be noticed by Xue Shen, so he had to tell the truth.

Xue Shen stretched out his arms and gestured to a foot long, "There are three trees with such a thickness." ”

At this moment, even the beautiful girl can't sit still.

Three trees like this are three cash cows!

"Then why don't you hurry up and get it back? No, no, no, you can't go like this, you'll be discovered...... How do you divide this tree? ”

Min Bai took another big sip of tea, his phoenix eyes flashed, and he couldn't hide his excitement, "Father must hand over one from him." As for the remaining two, there are ...... left"

Xue Shen grabbed before he was assigned and said, "My soldiers are already there, paper can't contain fire, you have to have someone to fish, it's better to leave this matter to us." I'll arrange for henchmen and won't spoil your business. ”

The beautiful girl nodded again and again.

Fight the tiger brothers, and make a fortune brother.

No matter what, Senior Brother Xue will not pit him. But the benefit fee must always be given a little.

When Min Bai stretched out a finger, Xue Shen thought that he was going to divide him with a tree, and his heart was full of joy.

His Royal Highness said with a cold face, "Divide one of your side branches." ”

One

A side branch?

Xue Shen thought he had misheard.

He worked hard, in the cold winter, went out of the boat and went into the water, and after the year, he got a side branch? Or are there so many people up and down?

Except for Meiniang, no one knew what His Royal Highness the King of Han and Xue Shen had talked about, in short, the two had a big quarrel.

Both of them have red faces and red ears, and they are like puffer fish.

However, the two usually have bad friends, and everyone knows about it, so there are not even half people who are curious about gossip.

It's just that night, under the resentful gaze of the guards Jiao, Mei Niang took the plunge and ordered to kill his only four remaining pigs, and let Yang Gonggong make a large portion of roast meat overnight.

Early the next morning, he was all packed by Xue Shen, and left with Ping'an, who rushed over from the Han Palace.

Aunt Qiu looked at the six pig heads that were ready to be sacrificed, and she didn't ask anyone else, but only notified everyone in the house to raise her wish appropriately.

Hey, hey, there are six pigs' heads, don't the gods have to be generous?

On the other side, waiting on the dock to quietly leave with Xue Shen'an, there were two more people.

Xiao Piao and Xiang Dayu.

When Xiang Dayu was called, he was still inexplicable, and he didn't know what to do at all.

However, Su Dong and Zhang Xiguang both said that no matter what the beautiful lady asked him to do, he just did it. If it matters, don't even talk to them when you turn around.

Xiang Dayu knows this.

He grew up in such a dirty environment, if he didn't have a little bit in his heart, he wouldn't be able to live, let alone leave the Xianggong Mansion and fend for himself.

But when he got on the boat and knew what to do, Xiang Dayu was still so shocked that his jaw almost hit the ground.

"Really, really let me do such a big thing?"

Who is not better than him?

Xue Shen patted him on the shoulder, "It's because you're so weak that you don't attract attention." Just dress up when you arrive, but don't show your stuff. ”

Xiang Dayu swallowed, Okay, I'm weak and I'm reasonable.

It's just that since everyone trusts him so much, then he will not live up to everyone's trust even if he dies!

So, during this New Year, the news that Huzhou fished out two gloomy trees detonated the topic circle of officials and people in Jiangzhou and Huzhou.

Even this happy letter was sent to the capital in an expedited 600 miles.

His Royal Highness the King of Han was very filial, saying that there were two trees, the big one was given to his father, and the small one was left by himself.

It's a pity that when this news was known, the two trees had been transported into the Han Wang's Mansion in a low-key manner, and few people were lucky enough to see them.

Yu Liang, the prefect of Jiangzhou, learned afterwards that he was so angry that he smashed a beloved inkstone.

If this matter had been passed through the Wucheng military, it would have been impossible to hide it from him now.

It's just that Xue Shen is in charge of the water master, and he has not been able to insert an eyeliner so far.

So he was skeptical, was there really only two trees?

I have to say that Yu Liang is really suspicious.

Because the third tree was divided on the spot, escorted by Xiao Shuozi and Xiang Dayu, and quietly sent away.

When Min Bai decided to hide a tree, Mei Niang was not surprised.

are so adults, if you don't know how to save some private money, then it's worrying.

But when Min Bai decided to give the tree to her, Meiniang was still surprised.

Such a valuable and more valuable tree than gold, is it really safe to hand it over to her?

Min Bai asked rhetorically, "Then who do you want me to hand over, my mother?" ”

Thinking about the unreliable Concubine Xu Xian, Meiniang felt that it was better to keep it herself.

And the beautiful lady who received a huge amount of private money immediately decided to drag the tree far away from Jiangzhou and Huzhou and hide it.

A clever person has more than one plan.

They should also be left behind.

Just, where to hide?
