Chapter 18 The beggar is full of food and has nothing to do

Gao Luozi knew that he might be here to confess in his life.

The Xie family's "upper eight" and the Xie family's "Chinese New Year's Eve dinner" are not people who want to sit and eat!

The madman Gao finally couldn't hold his breath, he plucked up his courage and said: "Old lady Xie, I made trouble outside today, your family's 'upper eight' also sitted, the "Chinese New Year's Eve dinner" was also eaten, and the wine was drunk, if I don't give you an explanation, I may confess myself here." I want to ......"

"What do you want?" Xie Jizu asked him with a smile as if nothing had happened, and said, "Sit down, eat, what else do you have to explain?" Today, I can invite your 'Hua Ziye' to the house to sit in the "upper eight" and have a 'Chinese New Year's Eve dinner', it is you who lift me up to the Xie family!" It's a blessing to my old man! ”

Xie Jizu's polite words made the madman break out in a cold sweat when he heard it. The high madman didn't dare to "sell off" anymore, so he quickly took out two things from his arms and put them on the table. Xie Jizu opened his eyes slightly: It's not a good thing, just a small bag of gold sand, and two pieces of rotten wood chips that don't slip away. There are many of these things in the river dams on his land.

When the madman Gao saw that Old Lady Xie was not interested in these two things, he immediately panicked. He hurriedly explained: "Old lady Xie, this is the sand gold in the gold pit dug by the people of Li Jiashan in the barmao bushes by the river......

"What's so strange about Shajin? There are many in Jinxi Dam! Xie Chengtong, the boss of the Xie family, stood next to him and interrupted the words of the madman Gao.

"My ancestor uncle, take a look at the color of this sand gold!" The madman Gao was in a hurry, he hurriedly grabbed the bag of sand on the table and held it in front of Xie Chengtong's eyes. said to him: "Look at it, I grabbed a bag of sand by the way, and there are several 'melon seed gold' in it, no matter how bad it is, it is also a 'red nest'!" ”

"What if it's a 'red nest'?" Or Xie Chengtong said unceremoniously: "They don't have a drop of water, can they still dig out the sand gold?" ”

"Sir, that's not what you say! Do you think that nest of bandits in Lijiashan is vegetarian? The madman Gao said anxiously, and said with ulterior motives: "I see that the second child of the Li family has gone back to the mountain to move people......"

"They're moving? What do you want to do? Xie Chengtong still said disdainfully: "Can they still move the golden pit up the mountain?" ”

What Xie Chengtong said is not unreasonable. Since the Xie family diverted the water flow of the Jinxi Dam to their own territory, anyone who went to the Jinxi Dam to dig the gold pit, no matter how "red" the gold pit he dug was, and because there was no water to dig out the sand gold, they had to sell the gold pit to the Xie family at a low price, and the Xie family would dig it themselves. Since the Xie family monopolized the Jinxi River, all the gold pits in Jinxi Dam have become the Xie family's bag. It's just that the Xie family is hindered by the reputation of "poetry and book heirloom", and they want to symbolically give a few oceans to the person who dug out the gold pit, which is the best "red" nest, and it is only ten oceans. I haven't heard of it, who dug a gold pit and didn't sell it to the Xie family, let alone heard of it, which one has the ability to move mountains and reclaim the sea, and can carry the dug gold pit away?

When the madman Gao heard the boss of the Xie family say this, he secretly complained in his heart. He thought to himself, "If they weren't interested in me, I'm afraid I wouldn't survive tonight." ”

When the madman Gao was secretly panicking, he saw Xie Jizu open his eyelids slightly, glanced at the two pieces of wood chips he had just placed on the table, and asked him, "What are these two pieces of wood?" ”

"It's 'ebony'!" When the madman Gao heard Xie Jizu asking, he suddenly saw a straw and hurriedly replied.

"I knew it was 'Ebony'! I ask you, what kind of 'ebony' is this? Xie Jizu said tepidly.

When the madman heard Xie Jizu asking him, he remembered the reason why he dared to make trouble in the Xie family's compound today, and he was also in a hurry to show his merit just now, and almost forgot all the big things. He hurriedly pointed to the two pieces of "ebony" crumbs he put on the table, sold them proudly, and said, "Please take a look at it first." ”

Xie Jizu squinted his eyes, glanced at him, really stretched out his hand, picked up a piece of 'ebony' from the table, looked at it for a while, and said: "This is a piece of 'toon wood', which can only be regarded as an ordinary material, but with this piece of sawdust, it proves that you are right, the gold pit they dug may be 'red'." ”

The madman Gao knew that Xie Jizu was able to say "that golden pit may be 'red'", which was a very remarkable thing. He hurriedly excitedly picked up another piece of "ebony" from the table, held it with both hands to Xie Lao Jizu, and said, "Please take a look again, what kind of wood is this piece." ”

Xie Jizu raised his head at this time, glanced at him, put the "ebony" crumbs made of "toon wood" in his hand on the table, took the "ebony" crumbs held by the high madman, took a closer look, and suddenly came to his senses.

Xie Jizu guessed: "If the 'ebony' crumbs taken out by the madman Gao were taken out of the gold pit, it means that the 'ebony' buried in the gold pit is a 'golden silk nanmu' that can be met but not sought!" ”

The "ebony" buried under the riverbed of Jinxiba is also called "gloomy wood". It is the trees that are buried under the riverbed after being washed down by the flood, and after years of not seeing air and sunlight, the wood has been carbonized, the brittleness has been removed, and the stiffness and hardness have been increased. However, under normal circumstances, the "ebony" taken out from under the riverbed is of different materials, and most of them are "hemp willow trees" that grow in the dams, and occasionally some "ebony" with good wood such as "green bar trees", "birch trees", and "pear trees" can be dug up. Although these woods have been buried under the riverbed for hundreds of years, the texture of the wood has changed, but it is much inferior to the "toon wood" and "golden silk nanmu", which have also been buried for hundreds of years.

Compared with "toon wood" and "golden silk nanmu", those woods are much inferior.
