Could it be that top craftsmen have this kind of obsession? It's the same with Charles, the tanner.

"Wow, it's the best rough stone! Or two packs! You know, this kind of superb cat's eye green, I have been doing it in this Extreme Treasure Pavilion for decades, and I have only made three strings in total! Good guys, you two are two strings in one! ”

The silk that wrapped the rough stone opened, and Lao Wang's eyes suddenly became green, like a hungry wolf looking at a fat lamb.

Li Hao said with a smile: "That's it, Uncle Wang will follow me to process gems in the future, and I will ensure that you can make seven or eight strings every year, and you will have a good time!" ”

"Wow!" Lao Wang immediately nodded his head in agreement like a chicken pecking rice, and then smiled dumbly, shook his head and said, "This is impossible!" ”

Li Hao smiled: "Don't believe I have this ability? ”

"Li Hao, aren't you kind to do this? They even dug me up! ”

Outside the small room, there was the shopkeeper's laughter and scolding.

"Wow, the best rough stone, or two!"

The shopkeeper walked in slowly, blank for a moment, and suddenly his eyes became green, and he took two steps in three steps, and flew over, making Li Hao and both of them a little suspicious: Is his movement a little stiff, is it pretending, will he work lightly?

The shopkeeper picked one up, changed the light outside from time to time, and muttered in his mouth: "Straight, it is really the best rough stone!" ”

"Two big bosses, give me one piece at the original price, and the processing fee is free, how about it? In addition, two more 10,000 taels of silver will be compensated! ”

Looking at the shopkeeper's expression, it seems that he wants to swallow the original stone and keep it for himself.

Li Hao smiled and said, "You don't ask me how much silver I bought it?" ”

The shopkeeper said: "I'm not worried about this, Jack's stubborn and stubborn fat son is supply, and he has a price for everyone!" Since the two of them were able to get the raw stone materials of the two bracelets from him, the price may not be much lower! ”

Since the shopkeeper replied like this, Li Hao shook his head and smiled: "Actually, I got it from Jack's fat man with my baby, and it would be distressing to give us one more, where can I get it!" However, I was able to show up at the Treasure Pavilion with two pieces of the finest rough stones, and he would definitely give the boss a bracelet rough this time! ”

The shopkeeper was ecstatic and said, "That's good! That's a blessing to the two big bosses! In this way, the processing fee is free this time, and the precious silk rope is also made by me, which can be regarded as making friends with two big bosses! ”

"If you don't have merit, how dare you do it!" Li Hao shook his head and smiled: "If Jack doesn't come, or doesn't provide the shopkeeper with a set of superb rough stones, the shopkeeper won't scold me for being a villain who doesn't believe in my word!" ”

The shopkeeper laughed and said: "Originally, there was a supply of the best rough stones this year, I don't know, but thanks to the blessing of the two big bosses, even if he doesn't supply other stores this time, he will definitely supply one set to the Jizhen Pavilion!" ”

Li Hao suddenly asked again: "What material is the precious silk rope?" ”

The shopkeeper said: "The original snow-white and round cold water pearls are suitable for white and tough snow silk, but that thing is too scarce, and it is difficult to collect in our store, so we can only retreat to the next best thing and replace it with jade mulberry silk, which is a little less tenacious." The cat's eye green is matched with Qin fire hemp rope, and the toughness is as durable as the jade mulberry silk. ”

Li Hao smiled and asked, "Is there a better substitute for Qin Huo hemp rope?" ”

The shopkeeper shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of this for the time being, those rare-grade tough silk ropes are probably only owned by Jianghu high-rollers or palace insiders, and they are not something that a small shop like us can ask for." Again, this is only a decorative treasure, not armor. ”

Li Hao nodded and said with a smile: "Can your store process snow silk and make it into silk rope?" ”

Everyone in the small room laughed happily, and the shopkeeper said: "This is too simple, basically everyone can do it!" ”

What's going on? Li Hao scratched his head in embarrassment.

The shopkeeper continued: "It is the same principle as kneading hemp rope and straw rope!" ”

……

Li Hao smiled dumbly, dare to do it himself! I once learned to hunt with Lishan, and this rope is the minimum basic skill for setting traps.

Li Haotan's hand in his arms was immediately retracted, and the shopkeeper shook his head with keen eyes and sighed: "Could it be that Li Hao still has snow silk?" I really don't understand what kind of magical abilities Li Hao has! Don't hide it, take it out and let us have a good time! Is it possible, are you afraid that we will rob you? ”

Li Hao shook his head and smiled bitterly, and sighed: "Alas, sure enough, the fox is an adult and cunning, and the ginger is old and spicy!" Nothing can be hidden from the eyes of the shopkeeper, our new debut little boss, in the eyes of the shopkeeper, is simply a little doll who has just learned to walk! ”

The shopkeeper took a small ball of snow silk handed over by Li Hao, shook his head with a sigh and said: "I am better than Li Hao in terms of vision and experience, but my ability to make rare raw materials is far inferior to Li Hao!" Li Hao, I'm optimistic about you! This snow silk rope will be made by me personally for you, and by the way, it will be touched by Li Hao's blessings and fortune! ”

Li Hao said with a smile: "The big boss made fun of me, my family is not as good as one or two treasures in the treasure store of the shopkeeper!" ”

The shopkeeper smiled: "You are really right, the rare treasures made by this store have tributes for the palace." ”

Li Hao's eyes rolled, and he asked in surprise, "Really?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled: "That's natural, otherwise the jewelry store that Jack only supplies in the capital city won't be the Extreme Treasure Pavilion!" ”

A small guy suddenly ran in the front hall: "Shopkeeper, Luo Gongzi wants to buy the jade beauty, one of the treasures of the town store." Ah Fu can't make up his mind, please go and negotiate with Luo Gongzi yourself. ”

The shopkeeper said apologetically: "Two distinguished guests, wait a minute, miss me!" You can't move this rope, wait for me to come back and make it myself! ”

……

Li Hao looked at the nervous and excited cutting water mill of the old Wang system again, and instantly an oval cat's eye green was made, gently wiped clean the water, and put it in his hand, it really looked like a fresh and agile cat's eye bead!

For an hour, the shopkeeper came in from the front hall excitedly, and Li Hao and the others congratulated him. The shopkeeper waved his hand and continued to compare the length of the silk rope of the cold water pearl.

Compared with a piece of snow silk, Li Hao was interested in holding his chest and watching how he cut, but he saw the shopkeeper take a knife in front of Lao Wang, and cut the snow silk in an instant.

Li Hao couldn't help but be stunned, it turned out to be made by Han Tie, and it was really a big deal!

The shopkeeper smiled with satisfaction: "Surprised, right? If a small shop does not have this minimum knife, how can it cut a diamond with high hardness? Don't you let your peers laugh off their big teeth! ”

……

Cutting, water grinding, Lao Wang's speed is fast, and his thin hands are flying without a shadow, and he is almost catching up with Li Hao's traceless star picker. On a cold day, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, which shows that the work is not something that ordinary people can do.

A pillar of incense and two white and shiny snow silk ropes were made, and the shopkeeper personally replaced the ordinary silk ropes they had worn before for Li Hao, and handed over the finished product to Li Hao with a smile.

Xue Yue'er couldn't put it down, and suddenly hung on her neck and asked, "Is it good-looking?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled dumbly, shook his head and said: "Boss Ai is really good at laughing, this is a treasure specially made for a woman with a snow-white complexion, so that you can complement each other." If Boss Ai wears it out, he won't be laughed at by others. ”

Xue Yue'er's face was slightly red, and she distinguished: "I'm just trying on the effect!" ”

Li Hao shook his head and smiled: "Good looking is good-looking, don't make a fool of yourself in front of the shopkeeper, go back and give it to your sister-in-law honestly, she will definitely be happy!" ”

The speed of making cat's eye green was too slow, Li Hao looked at it for a while, and suddenly asked again: "Shopkeeper, look at you are not very interested in cold water pearls, do you have a local purchase?" Did you receive any large cold water pearls? ”

The shopkeeper nodded and smiled: "The north is cold, and I do receive some sporadically, but there are only big ones like you, and the others are smaller than this, so I don't bother to buy them." ”

Li Hao said disappointedly: "Really? Just the size of your thumb. ”

The shopkeeper sighed: "Thumb size? That's the best of pearls! I have received a few warm water pearls, cold water pearls, and I have never seen a shadow! Li Hao, you don't still have this treasure in your hand, right? ”

Li Hao waved his hand and said, "Of course not!" Boss Jack asked me to ask. ”

The shopkeeper smiled: "Li Hao, if you don't say secret words, don't hide it, take it out and take a look!" ”

……

Li Hao laughed and said, "Old fox, the slightest flaw can't escape your eyes!" ”

The shopkeeper laughed and said, "Of course! This is a big flaw, Jack is a supplier, and it is definitely impossible to ask for goods from a jewelry store like ours! If you want to ask, you will only ask about the origin of cold water pearls, and it is impossible for you to ask! Why, are you reluctant to let me take a look? ”

Li Hao's eyes rolled slightly, and he smiled: "But I didn't bring it with me!" ”

The shopkeeper pointed at Li Hao with a smile, shook his head and said, "I'm really afraid that I will swallow you!" In this way, you don't have enough of the best anyway, just resell it to me, and the price is yours! ”

Li Hao smiled and said: "Shopkeeper, you are also not honest, since you haven't received such a big one, why do you want to buy it from me?" ”

……

The shopkeeper was stunned, and laughed: "Li Hao is inexperienced, has a unique vision, and his ability to distinguish is also very strong!" ”

Li Hao scolded with a smile: "Don't pat yourself on the back, you sell those treasures to us, if there are enough, this superb cat's eye green bracelet will be given to the boss!" ”

Xue Yue'er exclaimed: "Brother Hao, are you crazy? That cat's eye emerald is four times the price of a cold water pearl! ”

The shopkeeper smiled wryly: "Why are you two paying such a high price?" It's stuck in the middle, and it's not profitable! ”

Li Hao said: "Is it really your own?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said: "A nobleman, she asked me to collect, as long as I give a message, I will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver!" ”

Li Hao smiled and said, "Why didn't the shopkeeper sell her this information?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled bitterly: "Li Hao is even crazier, I don't know how many times higher this price is, I am a little dumbfounded!" I specially inquired, that thing has no effect on ordinary people, only has some calming effect on people who practice martial arts, why is Li Hao so persistent! Could it be that Li Hao is also a martial arts practitioner? ”

So that's what happened, Xue Yue'er nodded suddenly.

Li Hao suddenly asked: "This superb cat greenstone bracelet can't match the cold water pearls in her hand?" How many did she collect? ”

The shopkeeper shook his head and said: "That kind of nobleman, I don't dare to think of anything, where do I dare to ask!" ”

Li Hao came to the scene and said, "The people in the Prime Minister's Mansion are the king's candidates? ”

The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Don't ask, you won't sell it anyway!" I don't dare to mention it to her if you offer such a price, even if she doesn't get angry herself, someone will rectify me, and maybe I don't need to open a store in the capital anymore! ”

Li Hao asked in astonishment, "The nobles in the palace? They are glorious and wealthy, pampered, what kind of martial arts do they practice? ”

The shopkeeper said, "Who knows? Heard...... Alas, this is the end of the matter! ”

Li Hao became interested and urged: "Don't, let's talk about it more specifically?" ”

The shopkeeper looked left and right and whispered, "I'll be killed!" ”

All of a sudden, the cold air is everywhere, and it comes from the heart, which is far colder than the cold air inside and outside!

Relatively silent, only the crisp sound of Lao Wang cutting cat's opal at a rapid pace was left in the entire room.

After being silent for a long time, Li Hao suddenly felt that this person who collected cold water pearls must be a rude young princess, and when he thought of it, he opened his mouth and asked, "Princess?" ”

The shopkeeper gave a thumbs up, nodded in admiration, and put his finger between his lips, signaling that it was forbidden to talk about the matter, and to be careful of the trouble coming out of his mouth.

Li Hao was dumbfounded. If it was just a princess of the palace, he would still have the courage to try, but now that this is the real princess of the palace, he can only put away his thoughts and think of another idea.

The two guards suddenly whispered, "It seems that someone is peeping and eavesdropping!" ”

After Li Hao's translation, the shopkeeper's expression changed greatly, and he shouted: "Ah Fu, hurry up and take someone to search the yard!" ”

Suddenly, the figures in the Jizhen Pavilion flew over, and the beams were drilled on the upper house, and the wind was slight.

The two guards nodded and said, "They have good martial arts!" ”

After a pillar of incense, a rich bookkeeper came in and said, "Shopkeeper, I found nothing suspicious!" ”

For a whole afternoon, Lao Wang only made a string of superb cat's eye green bracelets, and Xue Yue'er immediately couldn't put it down and wore it on her wrist.

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "The backyard has prepared a banquet, and the two big bosses must enjoy it!" ”

Li Hao smiled: "Shopkeeper, do you still want to beat me the idea of cold water pearls?" I can tell you, if you don't drink wine, you will eat food violently, and you will never be given any chance! ”

The shopkeeper smiled wryly: "Li Hao is direct enough, just like that Jack's fat man!" Don't worry, I, Ping Yucheng, just want to make friends with the two big bosses, and I will definitely not fight you again about the cold water pearls! That's self-inflicted! ”

Li Hao smiled: "It doesn't matter if you make friends or not, if you don't drink, you don't drink!" ”

……

Li Hao suddenly took out a silver ticket of fifty taels and said to a guard: "You go back, let them order some wine and food by themselves, and order the goods carefully." ”

Shopkeeper Ping hurriedly stopped him and asked, "Li Hao, are you still bringing people with you, why don't you invite them over for a gathering?" ”

Li Hao shook his head and smiled: "Thank you for your kindness, we still have a batch of goods, how can we come over for a while?" ”

"What's that? Where to stay? ”

Li Hao said: "Mountain goods and furs, living in Fuxiang Building!" ”

Shopkeeper Ping shook his head and said, "It's strange, how can a noble person like Li Hao not have a decent property in the capital?" Let's not talk about it, let's drink first! ”

Li Hao argued: "It's to eat vegetables!" ”

Shopkeeper Ping shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Li Hao is really stubborn, is it that I, Ping Yucheng, am I like that kind of villain?" ”

Li Hao smiled and said: "The problem is that I am used to drinking wine, and I am not very suitable for local mellow spirits!" Just came over, there are mountain goods waiting to be processed, you can't get drunk, and please understand! ”

The flat shopkeeper said: "Mountain goods? Do fur coat skins? Rest assured, it will be cold in this capital for more than a month! With Li Hao's means, use his brain a little, think of any trick, and not deal with it all at once. ”
