Chapter 5 Searching for the Jade City God's Temple
"Xiaohai?"
The familiar sound coming from outside the door of the small room in the attic made Jiang Hailiu, who was lying on the bed and pretending to sleep, open his eyes.
He sat up and said, "I'm here." ”
Lin Meihui pushed open the door and walked in, looked left and right, and sat straight on the edge of the bed.
Jiang Hailiu felt a little itchy in his throat, coughed and asked, "Mom, is there something wrong?"
Lin Meihui smiled, reached out and brushed his messy hair, and said, "Auntie and your second sister, you don't have to worry too much, you need to work your studies, but there is no need to set your goals so high." ”
"Uh..."
Jiang Hailiu was speechless, and he didn't know how to explain it.
He was an excellent student in elementary school and junior high school, and after he went to high school, he was addicted to computers and games, which led to his academic performance falling behind.
But Lin Meihui never put too much pressure on him because of this, and was more tolerant and understanding.
And now that Jiang Hailiu has awakened, even if his strength is not as strong as one-hundredthousandth of the peak of his previous life, he can just spend some time on studying, and there is really no problem in being admitted to Jingfu University!
Of course, Lin Meihui didn't know the secret, thinking that the conversation at the dinner table just now had hurt Jiang Hailiu's self-esteem, so she came over to comfort her.
There is only a mother in the world!
"Don't worry, don't you like to play with the computer?"
Lin Meihui continued: "My mother has a classmate who is a tutor at a private university in the imperial capital, and when the time comes, she can't be admitted to other universities, so she arranges for you to go there to study computer science, what do you think?"
Jiang Hailiu nodded stunned.
Private universities?
The cost of that year was certainly not a small amount, and the better the private university, the more expensive the tuition fee.
Jiang Hailiu knows very well how much pressure his mother will bring to the family's financial burden if she makes such a decision!
Lin Meihui smiled: "Okay, you rest early at night." ”
Jiang Hailiu nodded again.
Lin Meihui reached out and touched his face, then left the room, closing the door by the way.
Call~
Jiang Hailiu exhaled and fell back heavily back on the bed.
Originally, he still had a dispensable mentality about going to university or something, but now he has really made up his mind.
Anyway, recovering his strength and cultivating is not something that can be completed in a day or two, and it may take decades to prepare for the Great Tribulation, and his life in this life is still very long, since he has decided to enter the world to practice, he should not miss it.
What's more, he could learn a lot in the university, after all, this era was much more advanced than thousands of years ago, and the situation of the Heaven and Earth Tribulation that he had foreseen earlier was strange and unpredictable, and the complexity was far greater than that of his previous life.
Perhaps the new knowledge you have learned can be applied to deal with the calamities of this life.
Didi!
Just as Jiang Hailiu was thinking about it seriously, the mobile phone resting on the bedside suddenly chirped twice.
He picked up the broken phone, whose shell had been badly painted, and took a look.
I'll it!
Jiang Hailiu jumped up directly from the bed.
The message tone came from his electronic payment account, and the screen showed that he had just received 40,000.00 yuan!
Jiang Hailiu thought with his toes, he knew that it must be the Tiantian Stone hanging in the auction house that was priced at a fixed price, because he set the buyer to pay the handling fee, so after deducting 20% of the tax, it was just 40,000 oceans!
What a tyrant!
Jiang Hailiu found that he seriously underestimated the consumption power of the local tyrant players in "Demon Fairy", and this Tiantian Stone was lost in just one hour, indicating that its price could be higher.
I knew that it would be marked with a fixed price of 100,000, what if it was also seconded?
Jiang Hailiu felt that he had lost 100 million!
Hey, don't be so greedy, being too greedy will be struck by lightning, and it will greatly consume the value of character.
He can only comfort himself like this, now that the first pot of gold is available, when the cultivation is restored, let alone 180,000, earning it is a small goal.
So why bother?
At night, Jiang Hailiu hugged his mobile phone beautifully, not to mention how sweet he slept was.
......
The next morning, after eating his mother's loving breakfast, he left home and took the bus to the City God Temple.
Lohas Park is a historic city and a thousand-year-old city, the LC area still retains two sections of several kilometers of city walls, the City God Temple is located in the north city wall, and with this as the center, a bustling pedestrian street extends on both sides.
When Jiang Hailiu was a child, he often ran to the City God Temple with his friends to play, at that time the pedestrian street was still an old street, and there were many grocery stores and shops, especially when it came to the market day, it was very lively, and there were many delicious and fun.
Nowadays, the old street has been transformed into a pedestrian commercial street, and it is even more popular, and it can be regarded as a scene of Cannes.
This time, Jiang Hailiu didn't come to the City God Temple to eat, drink and have fun, his destination was the backstreet of the City God Temple.
The back street of Chenghuang Temple was originally a thrift market, and now it is an antique cultural street, which is mainly divided into two major blocks: the stall area and the ancient building area, of which most of the ancient building area are antique shops, selling all kinds of antique cultural relics, jade, porcelain, gold, silver, bronze, calligraphy, painting, ancient books and other objects.
The stall area also sells antiques, all kinds of everything, but it is difficult to distinguish between the true and the fake.
Jiang Hailiu came here mainly to buy a few pieces of jade to set up a formation, because the funds are really limited, so the first choice is the stall area, if you run to the antique shop, tens of thousands of yuan thrown into it can not even hear a sound.
Today is Saturday, the backstreets are very crowded, and the stall area is the most crowded.
As the so-called golden antiques in troubled times, in the three hundred years since the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty, the country has been strong and prosperous, and people's consumption power is very strong, so the antique market has been very hot over the years.
However, those antiques that are often millions and tens of millions are not for ordinary people to play, so many people who like antiques and do not have too much money go to the stall area to Taobao, dreaming of picking up gold with a small fight.
In fact, the most likely to be pitted is this group of people, the owners of the stalls here are all human spirits, where is their "leakage" so easy to pick up, the result is often to pick up the leak is not wanted.
But some people are addicted to this, the stall owner pits him thousands of times, and he treats the stall owner like his first love, and he is also drunk.
As for the story of who picked up the big leak in a certain year and month circulating in the back streets, just listen to it.
This kind of third-rate story, just find an online writer, and you can make up as many words as you want.
Jiang Hailiu didn't come to buy antiques, and he didn't want to pick up any slack, so his eyes didn't look at the porcelain coins on the stall, but only at the jade objects.
"Little brother..."
A dark and thin middle-aged man greeted Jiang Hailiu with a smile, and opened his mouth to reveal two big golden teeth: "What do you want to buy? ”
The perennial stall has been set up all year round, and the guests who come over really want to buy something, or they have nothing to see the fresh and lively, they can tell at a glance.
Jiang Hailiu obviously really wanted to buy something, although he didn't look like a rich man, but it was best to coax a half-grown child, no matter how small the mosquito legs were, they were considered meat, right?
Jiang Hailiu quickly glanced at the other party's stall, and there were a lot of dazzling goods, all kinds of objects were antique, and they looked very historical and valuable.
The golden-toothed man narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you have anything you like?" The things I have here are all treasures left by my ancestors, and they are genuine and innocent!"
He said it as if he didn't even believe it.
Jiang Hailiu retracted his gaze and sneered: "Ancestor, may I ask which elementary school your ancestor studied, did I say that you have more than ten years of things here?"
It's embarrassing to come out and fool people when you look so stumpy, is it really an ignorant child?
When he swept the goods, he turned on his supernatural powers, but as far as the gods could reach, everything in the world could penetrate its essence and origin, not to mention a few gadgets.
If you want to fool the rivers and seas, the Dao Ancestor level is not qualified!
The merciless taunt made the golden-toothed man's face instantly turn pig's liver color: "You..."
This stall that has been set up in the back street for more than ten years has never been so tragically beaten, and if the river and sea flow are open, it is just right.
The goods he sells are all fakes and imitations, which have been wholesaled back in recent years, and they really haven't been more than ten years.
Who would have thought that a teenager would easily see through all the details?
There was still someone next to him who was looking at the goods, and when he saw this, he hurriedly put down the porcelain vase in his hand - an antique for a few years?
Couldn't do it, other businesses were disrupted again, and the golden-toothed man suddenly scolded in shame: "Stinky boy, are you sincere in making trouble for Lao Tzu..."
Jiang Hailiu's face suddenly turned cold!
