Chapter 141: Belly Article (2/3)
There is such a group of people who think they are very good, and they will never do heavy and cheap manual work, but they have neither great perseverance nor great perseverance, God does not appreciate their faces, nor does they give them a good qualification and good birth, and more importantly, they lack some self-knowledge.
I never thought about doing something seriously and steadfastly, of course, they can't do anything with their ability.
In the end, with that bit of effort, he picked up some leftover soup behind the butts of the warriors, and by "mixing with the warriors", this is the skin, and he can still live in the middle of ordinary people.
The place where they appear most often is to warm up and enliven the atmosphere on occasions infested by warriors, and sometimes they deliberately show that they are very close in the eyes of ordinary people, how good the official thanks, and those ordinary people who don't know much really believe in them, and they are often bluffed and stunned, and then of course the matter is to be pitted by this group of grandsons.
But after seeing a lot in the restaurant, Gu Shi knew that this was not the case at all. Because they know what kind of role they are in the eyes of these warriors, they warm up and tease next to them when they chatt casually, but there is really something to discuss, and those with a little eyesight don't need to be instructed to just take a look and leave the flashing away, otherwise they won't even be qualified to warm up next time.
Therefore, they didn't dare to let these warriors know that they were going to cheat under their banner, so as long as they knew a little bit and were tough, these guys would never dare to say a word, and they would have to run away with their tails between their legs, but they would have to worry about what rumors would reach the ears of the warriors.
There are also some more self-motivated helpers, in addition to warming up during the banquet, they will also strive to be "more useful", but their group of wastes who can't fight and can't do things can only use their "flexible" advantages to act as an ear to report God.
They are not qualified to blend in the circle of warriors, so they can only wander the streets and alleys, trying to find something that the warriors close to them are interested in, and if the things they hear are really useful to the warriors, they will take the news and go to ask for rewards.
Therefore, although the one in front of him is more self-motivated, he is just a helper after all.
This is the type of person Gu Shi is not afraid of, even the rotten villains who dare to bully some old, weak, sick and disabled people in the shantytown, at least people dare to play really, and they can fight for their lives when it is critical, and this kind of person is simply empty in his bones.
At the first glance of this person, Gu Shi judged that what was really interested in his bloodstone seal was the martial artists behind this group of idle, and the grade was not the kind of powerful martial artist who was so high that he had to obediently send the heirloom with both hands before he could reach a look, beating the dog to look at the master, in the same way, the grade of the owner could also be seen from the grade of the dog. It is impossible for a truly powerful martial artist to have this kind of gang existence that actually can't be on the stage at all!
And this is exactly what Gu Shi wants to see the most, with such unusual attention from a martial artist, it shows that the value of the bloodstone seal will never be low, and the martial artist's grade is not high, so that he has the courage to bargain with the other party - he himself is not without roots, he really wants to be shameless and hard to climb the backer, and it is not wrong to say "the confidant of the real power deacon of the martial arts hall".
And the community where he lives is a direct property of the martial arts hall, and there are night watchers at night, and martial artists who have not reached a certain level dare not come at all.
The glasses man with thief eyebrows didn't know that he was seen through by others as soon as he appeared, and he had already begun to think about how to get the maximum benefit from the martial artist behind him, not only to bite hard, but also not to really let the other party be ruthless and take risks, and he had already deduced a long story in his mind, and he didn't take him seriously at all.
However, it was Gu Shi's confident composure that made him give up his unrealistic ideas.
Pretending to "taste" the bloodstone seal, he nodded and said, "Well, this thing is still a little interesting, it looks better than ordinary stones, so I'll give you a thousand yuan, and you give me this stone to play with." ”
As he spoke, he went to his pocket to take out the money, and the expression, the gesture, were all saying, "I'm a local tyrant, spend a thousand yuan to buy a stone to play, a small amount of money."
You're beautiful!
Gu Shi scolded secretly in his heart, and directly snatched the bloodstone seal from the other party's hand, and without even saying anything if he refused, he wanted to directly push the other party out of the house all the way.
The man with glasses was pushed out of the door involuntarily, and hurriedly shouted: "If you have something to say, do you think that a thousand yuan is too little? How about two thousand?...... Not yet, five...... Five thousand is all right, just a broken stone, don't be too greedy...... If you have something to say, you have something to say, you think I drive less, so you can make a price......"
But Gu Shi shouldn't have said this at all, until he pushed him out of the door and closed the door heavily, then he said, "You fool fools, find someone who really knows how to do it." ”
Since this gang of idlers shouted out a thousand yuan, he knew that there was no need to talk to this person again, and he couldn't talk about a piece at all.
Moreover, he also deliberately hooked out the warrior behind the other party, and interviewed the warrior face-to-face, which also has the meaning of "watching people put dishes", first to see what kind of person the other party is, so that he can determine what kind of price is most appropriate.
Now that he has understood that the key turning point of the old Gu family is to count on this stone, or the heirloom that his grandfather personally handed over to him for more than 200 years, how could he let him walk out of this house so "cheaply".
After driving the man away, he secretly counted his fingers and waited for the other person to come again.
But no one came to the left, and no one came to the right.
His hooked heart was getting colder and cooler every day.
"Could it be that I guessed wrong? I really won't come? Hey, if I had agreed to 5,000 yuan at that time, at least the first year's residency fee would be barely enough......" he was already thinking in his heart.
The coarse tea, light rice and salted vegetables that have been insisted on for half a year are becoming more and more difficult to swallow, and all of this is all articles in his stomach, and his family doesn't know anything about it, and he doesn't even have a person to complain about.
Ay!
Sighing heavily, he hid the bloodstone seal in the dark compartment in the crack in the wall behind the wardrobe again, properly covered it from the outside, and walked out of the bedroom.
He said to his eldest son, who was already waiting in the living room, "Let's go." ”
Then he shouted to his wife, who was washing the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen, "We went to work." ”
As he spoke, he rubbed the heads of the two small ones standing next to the eldest son.
As soon as I reached the door, I heard a series of knocks on the door, and I looked very hurried.
Gu Shi leaned in front of the peephole and looked, and it was the glasses of the sharp-beaked monkey he had seen last month who knocked on the door, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
He first motioned for the children in the living room to go to the bedroom, and then quietly stabilized his mood before opening the door.
When he saw the man with glasses for the first time, he pretended to be impatient and said: "Why are you still here, didn't you say, let someone who can really understand the trade, the price you offered, we don't have to talk about it at all!"
The man with glasses looked at him with some hatred, but before he could speak, two people flashed behind him.
Just looking at the demeanor of these two people, Gu Shi judged their status as martial artists in his heart, and they were extremely good in that status.
He looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Who are you?"
Of the two warriors, one of them was more rude, and the other was more of a scholar, and the latter smiled: "I heard that your family has a bloodstone seal?"
