Chapter 25: Merchants Profit Greatly
Hearing this, everyone gasped.
It's really rich!
After a big ocean, ordinary people eat for three months.
It's just such a broken bead, although it looks rare, it's not worth eighty dollars.
"I'm a baby, the price is low, I don't sell it." The female shopkeeper of Yue Ji thought that she was a strange commodity to live in, and she refused to sell it even at a high price of eighty yuan.
The young man who returned from overseas had a slightly unsightly face, "You are not a pearl of the night, you are not a treasure, I advise you not to refuse so quickly, miss me, I am afraid it will be difficult for you to meet such a generous buyer as me again." ”
Although there are many people in the shop of "Yue Kee", few of them actually come to buy jewelry.
Everyone covets that jewel, but no one is willing to spend a lot of money to buy it.
After listening to what the young man said, everyone thought deeply, "The beads in the belly of the fish look strange, but they may not be valuable." ”
"That's it, the more shopkeepers, there will be no more shops in this village."
……
"If you don't sell it, you won't sell it, the beads are mine, and I can sell as much as I like." The female shopkeeper of Yue Ji is not a person with soft ears, since she thinks this thing is good.
I believe that there will be people who are willing to buy it at a high price, and this is only a matter of time.
At the other end of the river, someone shouted: "Come and see, there are dead fish in the river again." ”
When I boarded, the people who were looking around the jewel in the store.
They all flocked to the river, and immediately someone went down to fish.
"Look, this kind of fish that produces beads is everywhere in the Boqing River." The young man who returned from overseas saw that there was a strange white fish in the river, and it was not uncommon for the jewel in the hands of the "Yue" shopkeeper.
It's just that the person who went down to catch it didn't catch it in the face of the white fish at his fingertips.
Instead, I stepped on the deep water, and I couldn't get up with my feet.
"Help...... Help me......" He cried out for help in the water, desperately trying to get ashore.
But a dozen whirlpools swirled around him.
In this situation, who dares to go down to save.
I saw that he was surrounded by the whirlpool, fluttered a few times, and disappeared.
The old man who was fishing on the side sighed, "Ouch, this is the fifth drowning." ”
"Has anyone fallen overboard before?" Chu Wanxi said in surprise.
Lao Suo picked up the fish basket and planned to leave, "Since that day, the shopkeeper of Yue picked up a white fish, and there are always dead fish floating up by the river." Many people blushed and went down to fish. ”
"And then drowned?" Chu Wanxi seemed to understand what was going on.
When the fish grows against the scales, it is the water ghost that becomes a scourge.
often turns over the white belly of the fish and pretends to be dead by the river.
is to deceive people into going down to the river to catch it, causing others to accidentally fall into the water and drown, and become its substitute ghost.
As he left, Lao Suo said, "It's all the fault of greed for money." ”
The water was full of whirlpools, and someone called the police.
The people patrolling the house arrived in time, but they didn't dare to go down to the river to find someone.
"Close, close!" Most of the people who went down to catch fish were dead in the water.
On the contrary, he was happy, because others could not catch the white fish.
Such a peculiar orb is the only one she remembers, and it is not a problem as the treasure of the town store.
As for the life and death of others, businessmen are highly profitable.
And why care?
——
On the second day, the man who sank in the river yesterday.
I floated up early in the morning and soaked all night underwater.
The body is soaked, and it is very scary to watch.
Chu Wanxi happened to be sent by her husband and pushed him to the door of Yue Ji.
When I saw the dead bodies in the river, I was also shocked.
"Wanxi, knock on the door and call the shopkeeper out." Wu Lingheng didn't even glance at the dead body, looked up at the Yue Ji signboard and commanded.
