Counting the days, the merchant will soon be entering the city. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhang Feng didn't go to the school for a few days, and he was preparing the goods.

Their family's main product in recent years is animal jerky, the wild things hunted back from the mountains are cut and boiled half-cooked, and then dried into minced meat and jerky, which can be eaten directly, very chewy, and the taste is quite good, and can be stored for a long time.

Zhang Feng made his fortune with dried animal meat.

Zhang Mazi has been down all his life, in the early years, he has been living in the deserted city tower of Cliff City, and he didn't even have a decent home, until Zhang Feng learned to hunt, and his life gradually improved, and now he has built a two-story house next to the city tower, which is quite magnificent.

I have to say that Zhang Feng is indeed very capable, this kid is bold, has a lot of eyes, and even the ferocious toothed tiger dares to provoke, he has a ruthlessness that ordinary hunters can't reach, and he dares to fight with wolves with a broken wood knife, and he is very diligent, and he is the first to enter the mountain after the snow melts every year.

He had saved a lot of dried animal meat this year, plus some high-grade animal skins, which should be close to 10,000 catties in total. Taking advantage of the good weather, he now spreads out to dry it every day, Zhang Mazi's legs and feet are inconvenient, and he can't do heavy work, so he can only sit at the door of the house and weave a bamboo basket.

On this day, Zhang Feng spread a basket of beast jerky on the open ground in front of the house, and Zhang Mazi suddenly said: "Baby, it's hard for you, and your life is not good, no matter who picks you up, you won't have to work so hard." ”

He'd said it so many times, and he often couldn't help but say it again.

Zhang Feng looked at the dried beast meat all over the ground, and was complacent in his heart, he didn't take his father's words to heart at all, and replied casually: "Now there are not many people in the entire Cliff City who are stronger than our family, why are you complaining?" I want to do a big deal this year, and in the future, we will hire people to do all this hard work, let's two father and son shake our hands to be the big guy, see who is better than our life?"

Zhang Mazi laughed, "It's beautiful, there is no one in this cliff city to be a hands-off master, you look at the big industry of the blue fat man, and he has to work in the winery all day long." Now our life is indeed good, but in the future, you will have to marry a daughter-in-law and raise a bunch of cubs, and there will be no door for you to suffer, and if you want to be a master, there is no door. ”

Zhang Feng said with a smile: "Speaking of marrying a daughter-in-law, there should be enough money to buy Aunt Xue back this year, and you can also have a wife." Otherwise, you keep beating a single, and my face will not be honorable. ”

Aunt Xue is a slave among the merchants, and it is said that she used to work in the family of a big official, and then the big official committed an accident, and she was implicated and was demoted to a slave. Zhang Feng saw that Aunt Xue looked good, had a good temper, and was about the same age as Zhang Mazi, so he moved the idea of buying it back to Zhang Mazi as his wife, and arranged for the two to meet last year.

At this time, after listening to Zhang Feng's words, Zhang Mazi picked up a bamboo branch, threw it at him, and scolded: "Boy, you are capable now, but you are laughing at your old man." ”

Zhang Feng dodged with a smile, "Dad, don't be serious, I've been talking to Aunt Xue several times, but now I don't want to say it." ”

Zhang Mazi's old face turned red, and he reprimanded with a straight face: "Boy, you are not allowed to be neither big nor small with you." ”

The two fathers and sons were gossiping, and suddenly there was a dense sound of footsteps from outside the city, Zhang Feng quickly climbed up the city tower, it turned out that the merchant had arrived, and he had already walked very close.

Far from the market, the tower was a deserted place, and there was a small open space outside the city gate, and those people arrived one after another, and soon the open space was filled.

They did not immediately pass through the gates of the city and rush to the hero's platform in the city to set up their stalls, as they had done, but they stopped in the clearing, and only sent two men into the city in a hurry, and flew away.

Zhang Feng squeezed into the crowd and pierced the edges, and finally found the steward of the husband, and shouted happily: "Uncle bald, you are finally here." ”

The bald uncle trembled with a smile on his face, and enthusiastically hugged Zhang Feng's shoulder: "Boy, I haven't seen you for a year, you have grown taller again." ”

Zhang Feng said two sentences and cut to the chase: "Uncle Bald, I have an ancestral treasure at home, which was not intended to be sold, but my old man is thinking about Aunt Xue and is ready to take it out this year for redemption." Let's do a good job of this deal in these two days, and you can still catch up with my old man and Aunt Xue's wedding wine. ”

The bald uncle looked embarrassed, coughed dryly, lowered his voice and said: "Little brother, I'm really sorry, there are now two aunts and grandmothers in the caravan who are traveling in the mountains and rivers, and I can't do many things, I am afraid that it is a little difficult for you to buy your Aunt Xue this year, if you want to delay it for a year, I will give you a discount next year." ”

Seeing Zhang Feng's puzzled face, Uncle Bald Tou directly made his words clear: "There are two eldest ladies in the merchant who are now in this caravan, and your Aunt Xue is waiting for them closely." ”

Uncle Bald himself is actually a member of the Shang family, but there are tens of thousands of clans like him, and most of them have no status, and the core power has always been firmly controlled by hundreds of households. Regarding the power structure of the Shang family, the cynical bald uncle had mentioned a lot to Zhang Feng before, so at this time he immediately understood what was going on.

Listening to the tone of the bald uncle, the two eldest ladies of the merchant who had nothing to do to play in this poor mountain and bad water may have come from more than 100 families.

Zhang Feng was disappointed and unwilling.

He took Uncle Bald's arm and pleaded: "Honestly, my old man has been thinking about Aunt Xue since he met Aunt Xue last year, and it is already very difficult to wait for this year, and it is really unbearable for him to wait for another year." Why don't you go and intercede with the two eldest ladies, the price is negotiable. ”

Uncle Bald touched his shiny scalp and sighed, "I'll mention this to those two aunts and grandmothers, but don't expect too much." ”

Zhang Feng knew the bald uncle's personality and knew that he was a straightforward and outspoken man, and when he heard him say this, he already roughly knew that things were indeed quite tricky, so he said: "Whether it can be done or not, my old man and I will always remember your kindness." Let's not talk about this for now, I'll go and bring my treasure and you will give it an appraisal. ”

The bald uncle nodded: "If your treasure is indeed extraordinary, then there is more hope for this matter." ”

Zhang Feng also thought so, and he immediately went home and retrieved the stone beast hidden in the cellar.

When the bald uncle saw the stone beast, the tiger's body was shocked, and he exclaimed exaggeratedly: "My God, I can't imagine that you still have this thing at home!" immediately held it in his hand, looked left and right, looked up and down, studied it for a long time, and pretended to say to Zhang Feng profoundly: "Boy, don't look at it like a stone carving, this is actually a living thing." ”

Zhang Feng was stunned for a moment, didn't he kill the stone beast when he was at the bottom of the pit?

He asked tentatively, "If this living creature is slaughtered, will it still be worth anything?"

Uncle Bald Head disagreed with this question: "Who can slaughter stone beasts? There are not a few stone beasts in the world, but I really haven't seen them dead." ”

He put the stone beast on the ground, pulled out a thick-backed knife that he was wearing, and slashed at the stone beast, "My knife is also extremely sharp, but after slashing like this, you see, there are cracks on this thing?"

Zhang Feng didn't look at it and knew that the knife wouldn't hurt the stone beast, but he was still not at ease: "I also know that this stone beast is indestructible, but if it dies, can it still be sold for a good price?"

Uncle Bald Tou patted Zhang Feng's shoulder kindly, "Boy, why don't you understand? ”

Zhang Feng smiled stupidly, no longer entangled, since the buyer thought that the stone beast would not die, then whether it was dead or not, just treat it as if it was still alive.

"Uncle Bald, the teacher of our academy said that this stone beast can be sold for at least 10 million yuan in the outside world, do you think it is worth so much?"

Regarding the value of the stone beast, he saw it in a miscellaneous book, and he was not particularly sure in his heart, and he was eager to get a quasi-number from the bald uncle.
