The unfamous astrosorcerer, like the unsuccessful proletarian fighter, always serves others without regard to remuneration and hardship. The enterprising Mr. Wu Zong is one of them.

The materials that have been processed by Lu Xu are very suitable, and even have a tendency to be standardized. This astral sorcerer, who had little mathematical talent, was commendable in other respects, and it was no wonder that he was able to obtain many star arrays.

Mr. Wu Zong, a proletarian star sorcerer, worked until the early morning of the next day, when the 15 balances were assembled, and Cheng Jinzhou tested them one by one to determine their accuracy.

If it is a balance produced by a factory in later generations, who cares whether it is O.11 or O.O9 accuracy, all of them are labeled with O.1 iron label factory, but in the Great Xia Dynasty, as a valuable balance, the requirements in this regard are much higher.

This is why, sometimes the technical process is obviously very low, but people can still achieve high-precision realizations - if you try your best to remove the errors caused by humans, the accuracy of the tool itself is equivalent to a notch, just like Lavoisier in the 18th century was able to accurately weigh compounds with a balance to calculate the storage of oxygen, and in the ordinary Chinese universities of the 21st century, half of the teachers are not capable of repeating the realization, even if they are given more advanced instruments.

Wuzong's handiwork is not good, perhaps it is two or three times the ability of Cheng Jinzhou, although the final completed balances have reached the level of O.1, but only two have passed O.O7, and the price will vary several times at the current level.

"I'll leave this one to you." Cheng Jinzhou picked out the best O.O6 from a bunch of balances and handed it to Wu Zong, normally speaking, O.O5 is the ultimate accuracy of this type of balance.

Wu Zong was also very sleepy, and put it away after two excuses, Cheng Jinzhou called a carriage to send the three of them home, and he reluctantly got into another car and went straight to the "Shen family pawnshop".

Cheng Jinzhou's car was pulled by a mule, and the cyan mule walked very steadily, and even the balsa wood body rarely bumped. In the eyes of those who know how to do it, donkeys and mules are often more valuable than horses, especially in large families, which have always had a tradition of collecting good mules. Because mules themselves are infertile, good mules are not like thoroughbreds, which can be bred from generation to generation, purchased once and for all, and even in many cases, the products of the same stallion and female donkey will be very different.

From the perspective of vehicle comfort, because the horse's temper is too short-tempered, it is difficult to reflect its advantages in urban life, and the practicality is not as good as that of a donkey and mule, which is often larger than a horse, stable and reliable, and has an excellent body. However, because donkeys and mules are produced by male horses forcibly mating female donkeys, many times it will cause female donkeys to die in childbirth, which further causes the price of good donkeys and mules to rise. As for horses and mules, due to their small size, the working years are also weaker than those of donkeys and mules (2o years for the former and 3o years for the latter), so they are not popular.

The so-called century-old tradition refers to the ability to spend money where it is not necessarily needed, and the aristocracy is the group that does not pursue cost performance, so they use a large amount of silver taels every year, just to maintain a luxury normal, even when they need money the most, they rarely give up those habits that have been passed down for many years. Just like the Cheng family, perhaps in their view, the essence of life is to continue and pass on these habits.

There was a crisp and regular sound of bells on the carriage, and Shimo rode a pony to the right side of the car, while Meng Dameng drove slowly one after the other. In most of the state cities, only a few privileged classes such as nobles and officials have the right to go hand in hand, and many people saw from a distance that they were hiding under the banner of the Cheng family, and the carriage passed smoothly through the most prosperous middle street and drove straight to the southeast of the city.

As soon as the snowstorm passed, the city's commerce returned to its former prosperity, and the hopes of merchants who wanted to make money to make a fortune while their peers were out of business also failed. The Shen family's pawnshop hung a red flag, standing on the side of the main road, the red gate was ajar, but there were very few people coming and going.

The mule cart stopped steadily at the main entrance of the pawnshop.

The guy standing in front of the pawnshop raised his leg and wanted to stop it, but he saw the sign of the Cheng family before he gave up. It's not anyone's carriage that is qualified to block the front door of the shop.

Cheng Jinzhou was sore, wiped the corners of his eyes and stepped out of the carriage, 13-year-old children are still sleepy, and staying up late is much harder than adults, even if the guy in his skin bag is a guy who stays up late all year round.

It was the guy who blinked his eyes strangely on the steps. In his opinion, the master in the car seemed to be no different from the little boy in the village, except that he was thinner and more gorgeous......

Shi Mo quickly interrupted his fantasy and waved his hand, "Go and call your shopkeeper to come out." ”

Squinting at Meng Dameng Er, who was tall and tall, the guy dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, he bowed down and ran to the back hall, half of the gentlemen who came to the pawnshop were in a bad mood, and the other half were in a bad mood at any time, the guy was beaten, and the owner was only in charge of the decoction.

Shi Mo led the way, and a group of four people walked into the pawnshop slowly, Cheng Jinzhou found a wide Taishi chair, and slept on the armrest, and then didn't care if it looked good or not, just like a junior high school student who stayed up late watching TV. The servant serving the tea secretly glanced at him twice, and was very surprised.

After about five or six minutes, there was a sound behind the curtain, and Shimo gently pushed Cheng Jinzhou's shoulder and shouted in a low voice: "Third brother, third brother......"

The shopkeeper Shen Ping walked out in a brisk manner, but the other party was completely incapable, and at first glance, he couldn't help laughing. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, and before he could laugh, he quickly ordered: "Go get two warm towels, you can't do a little thing." ”

Hearing the human voice, Cheng Jinzhou raised his head embarrassedly, laughed twice, and said, "I accidentally fell asleep......"

Shopkeeper Shen was speechless when he said this, and it took a long time to change his tone and say: "The third son, this time, do you want to change some more money to turnover, or do you want to buy something." ”

He naturally remembered the 48o taels of silver that Cheng Jinzhou took, but he didn't say anything about debt collection.

Cheng Jinzhou took the towel handed by the guy, wiped his face twice, and said soberly: "I see that you also have Star Warlock things for sale here?" ”

"That's right, the third prince is interested?" The pawnshop has always been a well-informed unit, and Shen Ping also knows that the third brother of the Cheng family is very talented in astrology.

Dr. Cheng nodded sleepily and yawned, "Where is the Star Warlock Store in Shaonan City?" ”

The southeast of the city is a commercial area, but he has only dealt with this pawnshop.

Hearing him ask about the Star Warlock Shop, Shen Ping said proudly: "The Star Warlock Store in Shaonan City is also from the Shen family, and Cheng Gongzi can transfer any one he likes." ”

There are thousands of astrological goods at every turn, and there are dead items in the pawnshop, of course, he wants to attract customers first. As for the Star Warlock commodity, it is the level of the Cheng family, and it has no ability to operate, only the Shen family in the capital will be sold sporadically.

Cheng Jinzhou is here to sell things, but he doesn't want to go to the Star Warlock store. In comparison, although the pawnshop is ruthless, if it is dead, it is not necessarily more slaughtering than the storefront, which is like a million-level Vacheron Constantin can recover 5o yuan to the pawnshop, but it may only be 1o million yuan to the brand store.

He hooked his fingers and asked Meng Er behind him to put the big iron box on the ground, opened the lid with one hand and said, "Please take a look at the shopkeeper Shen, how much money can these items have." ”

The 14 scales are neatly arranged in boxes and set up separately with cork. The tray was removed and stacked on the side with weights, the unpolished dial was covered with satin, and the hands were stuffed with cotton for fear of being bent by collision.

Shopkeeper Shen bent down, looked at it and said, "Go and ask Zhou Chaofeng to come out and palm your eyes." ”

After speaking, he also smiled at Cheng Jinzhou and said: "The little old man is not good at learning, so I have to ask Mr. Chaofeng to take a look." ”

Worship is the essence of the whole pawnshop, it is reasonable to say that the value of all items can be judged, although there are other pawnshops will be jewelry, calligraphy and painting and other identical independent, set up different worship, but it is not often used by each family. In fact, when it is difficult to judge the value of the court, they often give the price very low, so that the fake is not profitable, or only has a small profit. In contrast, it is more difficult to cultivate a qualified courtier, and if the owner is strong, it is often that there is a courtier, and there is a new store.

While waiting, Cheng Jinzhou took the scales out of the box one by one, divided them into four levels according to accuracy, and finally put two page sizes under each balance to explain the accuracy, weight quality and other parameters.

When Zhou Chaofeng came out, what he saw was a balance like a review queue, with 14 neat parts, which made the well-informed him almost exhale.

Shopkeeper Shen coughed vigorously and introduced: "This is the third son of the Cheng family, Cheng Gongzi, Zhou Chaofeng is the treasure of the store, please take a look?" ”

"Please." Cheng Jinzhou got up and gave up his position, sat back on the Taishi chair, and saw that he had entered a crumbling state again.

Zhou Chaofeng was an old man with thin fingers, but his face was still red, he said hello to Cheng Jinzhou and sat down in front of the scale, looking at it carefully.

Shi Mo stared at him with wide eyes, for fear that something would go wrong with one of the parts, in his opinion, the scales of this iron box were all extremely valuable.

For forty or fifty minutes, Zhou Chaofeng slowly straightened his waist, and while letting the guy knead it, he commented in a low voice: "The structure is complete and systematic, and the work is a little impatient, but it is not a good product, especially the following description, the content is informative, I measured three balances, and it is completely consistent." ”

As he spoke, he continued to test the remaining balances.

Although Zhou Chaofeng could not calculate the balance parameters independently, he had to understand the content used to explain the calculations and the accuracy of the calculations, but there was no obstacle at all.

Shi Mo hurriedly pushed Cheng Jinzhou awake, and hurriedly wiped his face again.

"Make a price." Cheng Jinzhou didn't listen to Qing Chaofeng's words, but asked confidently.

Chao Feng raised his head slightly, confirmed the hint of the shopkeeper, and said, "How about 1oo taels of silver per scale?" ”

"Dead?"

"That's right."

Dr. Cheng laughed, waved his hand and said, "1oo per body is not good, let's count it separately." ”

"Oh? How to separate? "It was the shopkeeper Liu who was questioned, and after the court quoted in proportion according to his hints, the rest was his job.

"Two bodies with an accuracy of o.1, 7o taels of silver will be given to you." Cheng Jinzhou's face was still childish and jerky, and his tone showed a discordant maturity: "3 bodies with an accuracy of O.9, 85 taels of silver for each body, 4 bodies of O.8 will cost 1oo taels of silver, 5 bodies of O.7 I want 15O, and the last remaining body with O.6 precision, I want 3oo taels of silver." ”

With a simple division calculation, the price rose to 1845 taels of silver. Shopkeeper Liu hesitated and said, "Cheng Gongzi, why don't you have 11o taels each?" ”

Cheng Jinzhou shook his head lightly, the goods of the Star Warlock have always been scarce, and he has never been afraid to ask for a price from the future.

Shopkeeper Liu took one last look at Mr. Chaofeng, nodded his head, and said with a smile: "Does the prince want to fly the ticket, cash, or gold?"

18oo taels of silver, equivalent to 40,000 US dollars, equivalent to 110,000 yuan in 1985, which is definitely a huge amount of money when the labor is even lower than that of China at that time.
