Chapter 144: Gambling Stone (1)
A round of full moon hangs in the sky, there is a faint mist floating on the surface of the Pingjiang River, as if covered with a layer of moon-white tulle, both sides of the river bank are hung with round fine bamboo bone paper lanterns, the lanterns are of different colors, painted with the picture of the maid of the landscape, there are also stall owners selling all kinds of blank lanterns, people are interested, you can pick up a pen at any time to leave ink treasure on the lantern.
The river painting boat shuttles, the fat powder is fragrant, the voices are boiling, the laughter of the Ji people, and the delicate voices are scattered through the mist.
The shops on both sides of the Pingjiang River are lined up one after another, the eaves are the same, and the curtains are set up, which is more lively than the Qixi Festival.
Ran and the others got off the carriage in the city and walked to the ferry, in order to avoid the last incident, they did not go to the cruise, but booked a private room in a nearby restaurant.
The name of this restaurant is very interesting, it is called "Linjiang Xian", which is the name of the song of the teaching workshop, and it is very appropriate to use it here. The location of the private room is excellent, sitting by the window of the river, overlooking the most prosperous river, and the riverside fairy is a building that extends to the water, the river breeze blows, just like a boat, and the inner window can see the situation of the restaurant lobby, on this special festival, the restaurant will invite the most famous Ji people to perform.
Ran Yunsheng was able to get to this position, not only spent a lot of money, but also spent a lot of thought.
"Ah Yan, look at the calligraphy and paintings in this room." Ran Yunsheng blinked.
"See, Sang Suiyuan." Ran took a sip of water, looked up and glanced at the large characters hanging in the center, clear and elegant, with muscles and bones hidden but not exposed, and a school of its own.
After Ran Yun finished speaking, he suddenly felt a little too indifferent, after all, this private room was made by Ran Yunsheng with a lot of effort, so he said, "It doesn't matter whose calligraphy and paintings are hanging in the house, what matters is that this house was brought by Brother Ten." ”
"Ah Yan really knows" Ran Yunsheng said with a smile, he paused for a moment and said, "Sang's words are hard to find, I heard that the boss of Linjiang Immortal got Sang's eyes, so he got this word." ”
Ran Yunsheng really felt that Sang Chen was a good person, he could see that Ran Wei was not interested in this family business, but it was not easy to say too much persuasion, so he could only seize the opportunity to say a few words about the benefits of Sang Chen, they are all talented and beautiful, don't the ladies all love Langjun's talent?
Ran Yi nodded, turned his eyes to look at the lively street market, and said slowly, "Since my life experience, I have analyzed his psychology. Sang Chen's mother committed suicide, his father was martyred, and the master Huaijing did not allow him to apprentice, he may feel adrift in his heart, so he subconsciously wants to find a support, whether it is psychological or realistic, what he seeks in me is just a sense of security. Because he thinks that I am a person who dares to dissect a dead body, and that I must not be as weak as her mother. ”
Ran Yunsheng looked at Ran Yun dumbfounded, he also had Sang Chen's life experience, but he had never thought about it.
Ran Yi's eyes locked on Ran Yun, who was jumping in the crowd, smiled, and said, "Sang Chen's purity and talent are all things I admire, I am willing to protect him in other ways and become his pillar, but I am not willing to take my lifelong happiness to fulfill it." ”
Ran Wei felt that Ran Yunsheng was credible and was also someone close to her, so she would speak up about her true thoughts, lest he still work hard to match next time, she didn't have the patience to listen to others say the same thing she had decided every time.
"Ah Yan's thoughts are the same as many ladies in Chang'an." Ran Yunsheng said.
Ran Wei sat up straight and said to Ran Yunsheng, "No matter what happens to Ah Yan in the future, the tenth brother will always be Ah Yan's tenth brother." ”
A gentle smile bloomed on Ran Yunsheng's face, "That's nature." ”
Ran Yun rushed up at some point, and drank two glasses of water before saying, "Brother, Seventeenth Sister, it's fun for you to sit here, let's go and have fun together." ”
"Ah Yun, your seventeenth sister's appearance is inconvenient to walk between the streets." Ran Yunsheng's appearance is also easy to be watched.
Ran Yun glared, "Not many people pay attention to a beautiful child like me, and the two of you are a little prettier than me, so you will be fine."
The corners of Ran Yun's lips curled slightly, Ran Yun is really a peculiar child, both in ways and ideas are very different from others, but she can still be classified as a normal person, and Sang Chen and Liu Qingsong belong outside the human world.
"Let's go, let's go, why don't you let Wanlu go down and buy masks for the two of you, in case you get separated, will you be able to make peace with the Linjiang Immortal Club?" Ran Yun had a lot of fun playing alone, but she only watched and didn't buy it, and with Ran Yun and Ran Yunsheng, she had a money bag.
Ran Yunsheng looked at Ran Yun's thief's smile, and thought to herself.
"Evening Green, go down and buy two masks." After Ran Wei finished speaking, he turned to Ran Yunsheng and said, "Tenth brother, wouldn't it be a pity for us to stay out of the excitement like this, when will you leave Suzhou again, it's better to go down and have a good time." ”
The city of Chang'an is dozens of times more lively than Suzhou, but Jiangnan has the charm of Jiangnan, and many charming small things may not be sold in Chang'an.
Ran Yunsheng also moved, "Okay." ”
Wanlu went downstairs for a while, and then bought two masks, "These two masks are the ugliest, the boss said that it is not easy to sell, and the slave maid thinks it is easy to recognize." ”
Ran Yunsheng took one and put it on, and Wanlu put the other one on Ran Wei, Ran Wei said, "I just don't wear such an ugly mask, I'm afraid it's not difficult to recognize, and I'm afraid there are few ladies with arms hanging in the market." ”
A few people came out of Linjiang Immortal, and immediately felt the crowd boiling, and the atmosphere surrounded a few people, if they didn't shout loudly in their ears from time to time, they could hardly hear what the other party said.
Only the stall owners who are shouting are particularly penetrating in their voices.
Ran Yun tugged at Ran Yun's sleeve and said, "Seventeenth sister, let's meet, shouldn't you give me this meeting gift?" ”
"It's my negligence, Ah Yun has what she wants, don't skip words. Ran said.
"Just now I saw a place selling jade carvings, although the jade is not the same, but the carver is not, if you have the heart to send, I will reluctantly ask for that." Ran Yun said this honestly and seriously.
Ran Yi smiled slightly, "Okay." ”
"It's just downstairs, and your fox tail is exposed, Ah Yun, you can't wait, right? There are not many words" Ran Yunsheng was full of helplessness, while helping Ran Yun block people, he bowed his head and scolded Ran Yun again.
Ran Yun flattened her mouth, "Do you have elbows like this?" Everything in the world is wrapped in img r=//fmgeyimeid.jg >? Flash? Mo (16) Xi? Calvary swelling vertebral swelling vertebral mold? The emperor is sneering?? pack
"Well, you've got a crush." Ran Yunsheng said straightforwardly.
"There are a few sets of new jewelry in Yuanfu Building, no, I just want those for me." Ran Yun glanced at Ran Yunsheng, saw his disapproval, and immediately said, "Although Yuanfulou is good, it is still much worse than many jewelry stores in Chang'an, but those jades are superb, I plan to buy it to find a master in Chang'an to decorate it, sell it in our jewelry store, make money, and divide you into two percent, you see, you gave me a favor, and recovered a lot of costs, isn't it very cost-effective?" ”
Ran Yunsheng nodded, "This account is beautiful, but there is something I can't figure out for my brother, is it good for me to sell you this favor?" ”
"Benefits?" Ran Yun stroked her forehead and sighed, "Aya's family property is in the hands of Brother A, it's really worrying about the future, look at this face." ”
Ran Yun held up the little face, "Now that I am a child, I already have a little color, and they all say that the eighteenth change of the female university, look at your appearance, brother, you can imagine what I will look like in the future, although the identity of the businessman is a little lower, but you can marry the Jujia family, and you can also be a concubine for the powerful, you say that it is good to sell me alone?" ”
Ran Yi looked at the little girl in front of her in surprise, she said that she was not proud of her appearance, but seriously measured her value, she was simply a veteran of the mercenary with an innocent appearance, and she did everything with pros and cons, more like a businessman than Ran Yunsheng.
"Ah Yun" Ran Yunsheng seemed to be really annoyed, "You are not allowed to say this in the future, nor are you allowed to think like this, nor can you joke." Marriage, concubine, don't even think about it, choose a person you like. ”
Ran Yun drooped her head and nodded slowly.
Ran Yun tugged at Ran Yunsheng's sleeve and signaled him not to take it too seriously. Ran Yun seems to belong to a child with a high IQ and low EQ in some aspects, and it is not yet the time for a girl to be pregnant.
Ran Yunsheng also felt too concerned, and was about to say a few words of comfort, but the road in front of him was blocked.
The road was surrounded by water, and Ran Yun didn't care about pretending to be low, the first one quickly struggled to pull away the crowd, and pulled for a long time, but only moved two or three steps forward, and anxiously pulled a young man, "Excuse me, are you watching?" ”
At that time, people were very unhappy to be picked up and pulled, but when they looked down, they saw Ran Yun's delicate little face, and a pair of watery eyes full of anticipation, and suddenly the anger disappeared, and he replied with a smile, "It's gambling on stones."
Gambling stone, is to put a lot of rubble together, some are just stones, and some will contain jade, gemstones, jadeite, etc. after cutting, if you are lucky, you can buy a rough stone containing the best jade at a very low price, luck, it is also possible to spend a lot of money to buy a stone.
Ran Yun nodded, her heart became more and more excited, she especially liked this kind of thing of fighting big with small things, although she didn't know much about stones, but it was good to have a good time.
Ran Yi also stood on tiptoe with interest and looked at the crowd.
As if it hadn't started yet, more than a dozen high stools were put on it, covered with red silk, and it seemed that it was the so-called rubble.
Ran Yunsheng watched for a while, these people are ordinary people, most of them are watching the excitement, and only a few can afford to gamble. So he ordered the servant to take out his usual money and lead the way in front, but everyone who gave way to them was given ten dollars.
Ten dollars can buy a lot of food, but it's just a slight move, and this gambling stone has nothing to do with them, so Ran Ji and the others went all the way to the front.
I wish you all to eat and drink in the new year and not grow meat By the way, about whether there are gambling stones in the Tang Dynasty, bidding, etc., the sleeves have not been verified, if you are interested, you can check it. Writing about gambling stones is just a short interesting experience, and the focus is not on "gambling stones", but we understand.
