Chapter 17: Snow Pearls

The autumn wind starts and stops, blowing on the face, which is very comfortable.

Nalan Zhe couldn't help but think of the famous sentence in "Flying Birds": "Life is like the splendor of summer flowers, and death is like the quiet beauty of autumn leaves." ”

Autumn seems to have a special meaning for Naranzhe, who died in autumn and was born in autumn at the same time.

Winter is coming, whether it is the winter of the season or the winter of the Shuiyun family, more than two months later, it will be the chief audit meeting, what will happen then?

Nalan Zhe didn't want to think about it, because it was useless to think about it, what he could do in front of him was to condense the martial soul as soon as possible, but how easy it was to talk about it, for the time being, don't think about the flame snails on the Fire Island, the ice pearl alone is a big problem, four million cloud coins, just to eat a few soul condensing pills that may poison him, is it worth it? But if you don't eat it, you can't condense the colorful martial soul, alas, it's really nerve-wracking.

"The black market auction has arrived. Shui Yunzhu looked at the grand building in front of him and said to himself.

Nalan Zhe has lived in Yunmeng for a long time, and is accustomed to the quiet courtyard of Zhuyuan, but when he came to this magnificent building, he was slightly uncomfortable, and his heart was full of excitement and awe.

Is this the famous black market auction house?

It was less like an auction house and more like a small castle, and the gate alone was big enough for several carriages to pass through side by side.

The architecture of the black market auction hall is very Gothic, with a cross-shaped layout on the façade, but the transverse wings rarely protrude. The west side is the main entrance, and the east side is the winding ring hall, which seems to have a ring corridor from a distance, and many small buildings are arranged in a radial pattern.

From afar, the atrium of the black market auction hall is towering, covered with large panes, behind which there are many large and small spires and spires, which are connected to form a strangely shaped architectural complex.

At this time, the auction has not yet opened, many people are walking around in the auction hall, the inside of the auction hall is rich and beautiful, very open, there are many Lei family's self-operated shops, selling all kinds of things, which are not easy to see outside.

"Uncle Zhu, what a sound, it seems to have a snake. Nalan Zhe became cautious this time, and didn't dare to say it directly, in fact, he could see it clearly, not far in front, there was a huge python, which looked very scary. Although he knew that it might be a spirit beast and would not hurt people at will, the fear of snakes in humans seemed to be innate.

Shui Yunzhu turned his head to look, he was also taken aback, and reluctantly said: "That's a snowflake python, born in the snow country, the size is very large, but it generally does not hurt people, and it is often used to take care of babies in the snow country." In the Shuiyun Continent, it is often used for ornamental snakes. ”

"Wow!" Nalan Zhe saw the snowflake python crawling towards him with its head held high, and immediately got goosebumps.

Shui Yunzhu looked at Nalan Zhe's expression, thinking that this child's hearing was inevitably too strong, and the sound of the snowflake snake's action was very small, and he could actually feel it.

The snowflake snake didn't go for Nalan Zhe, and when he walked halfway, he didn't know what he was attracted to, and he turned around and disappeared.

"Uncle Zhu, how can these dangerous animals walk around casually, no one cares?" Nalan Zhe asked strangely, because in Yunmeng, except for cats and dogs, there are very few of these strange spirit beasts.

"According to the regulations of the Water Cloud Empire, small spirit beasts and non-aggressive spirit beasts can be brought to public places, while medium and large spirit beasts, such as illusions, brute bulls, dangkang, wild pythons, and aggressive spirit beasts, such as giant crocodiles, Beichuan wolves, sword tigers, blood leopards, etc., are not allowed to be brought to public places. But most of the spirit beast business is the Lei family, and the Lei family and the Fire Island mainland cooperated, mastered all the channels for importing rare spirit beasts, in order to sell a large number of spirit beasts, took the lead in encouraging all kinds of dangerous spirit beasts to be brought to the street and various occasions, at first people were still opposed, but they dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, after all, jackals, tigers and leopards, looked scary, but gradually people found that spirit beasts really did not hurt people, and no one said anything, and recently it seems that the purchase of spirit beasts has become the atmosphere of famous families in Shuiyun, comparing with each other to buy all kinds of spirit beasts, so the price of spirit beasts has also risen sharply。 ”

Hearing this, Nalan Zhe seemed to understand why Yunmeng couldn't see the spirit beast, after all, Shui Yunze didn't like Lei Mo, which could be regarded as hating Wu and Wu.

"Since the spirit beast business is so hot, wouldn't our spirit beast shop also be very profitable?" Nalan Zhe turned his self-righteous business acumen and came up with the idea of doing a spirit beast business.

Shui Yunzhu shook his head helplessly when he heard Nalan Zhe's words, "It would be nice if I could make money, the one who really makes money is the Lei family's spirit beast shop." Our family's spirit beast shop only sells the most ordinary spirit beasts, such as golden hounds, Siamese cats, green turtles, thunder spirit birds, and the teddy tiger you saw in the morning, even if it is a rare good thing. And the Lei family's spirit beast shop is full of eyes, running on the ground, flying in the sky, swimming in the water, everything, didn't I say it just now, the Lei family monopolizes all the channels for importing rare spirit beasts from the Fire Island Continent, you must know that most of the best spirit beasts in the Lu Dao are produced on the Fire Island Continent. ”

"No wonder. Nalan Zhe shook his head regretfully, thinking that he must break the monopoly of the Lei family in the future and become a generation of spirit beast dealers...... Uh, no, it's a spirit beast tycoon.

"Xiao Zhe, there is a specialty of Snow Country, let's go and see the ice pearls. Shui Yunzhu said as he pulled Nalan Zhe into a spacious shop.

Shui Yunzhu saw a string of snow country ice pearl necklaces with a transparent body from afar, and he was so slanderous that his saliva was about to come down. Snowpiercer Ice Pearls are different from ordinary pearls in that their color is almost transparent, with a touch of white in the transparency. Ice pearl powder has a special beauty effect, is the favorite of aristocratic girls, he remembers that Shui Yunsha especially likes to smear ice pearl powder, although you are a royal daughter, but you are reluctant to spend money to buy too much.

Looking at the dreamlike luster and color exuded by the ice pearl necklace, Shui Yunzhu finally understood what it was the dream of all girls, and there was a joke that a certain beauty threatened that she was willing to marry anyone for a string of ice pearls, even if it was not a person.

"It must be beautiful to wear the ice pearl necklace around Yue'er and Rou'er's necks. Thinking of his two daughters who were far away on Ghost Island, Shui Yunzhu couldn't help but feel sad, and he didn't know what happened to them.

"It's so beautiful!" Nalan Zhe couldn't help but admire, his eyes couldn't see colors and appearances, all he could see was a black and white image of the virtual and the real, and the state of each substance in his eyes was different, and what the ice pearl presented to him was an appearance that had never been before, each ice pearl seemed to have vitality, and there was a hazy halo around it, which was very beautiful.

"Boss, how much does this string of ice pearls cost?" asked Shui Yunzhu out loud.

"Yo, you're a connoisseur. At first glance, I fell in love with the most beautiful and luxurious top-of-the-line ice pearl necklace we have here. Needless to say, you must know that this can be a real Snow Country Ice Pearl, with a little fake, and I'll pick your head to play with you. You look at this quality, you look at this luster, you look at this amount, you look at this style, wear this string of ice pearls, wrap you not hot in summer, not cold in winter, not dry in autumn. Give it to your wife, and you and your wife will never be separated—"

"Uh...... Boss, we just want to know how much it is. Nalan Zhe couldn't stand the enthusiasm of this boss, if he knew that he couldn't even afford to buy one with money, he didn't know what kind of face he would have.

The boss saw that Nalan Zhe's eyes were covered with black cloth, and there was a series of witty words: "Yo, at first glance, this little young master is the dragon among people, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, a tall figure, a young age, and such a fresh and refined tone, rare, rare! I will look at your face, look at your face, in the future, you will be a hero who swallows mountains and rivers, a unique genius in the world, wear this string of ice pearl necklace, make your wishes come true, your dreams come true, and it is also very good for your eyes, and it is not necessary to see the light again." ”

"Well said, get the reward!" Nalan Zhe joked in his heart, but his face remained silent, "Boss, how much is it." ”

"Look at it, this is a necklace made of twenty top-grade Snow Country Ice Pearls, I dare to say that the Water Cloud Empire, no, the Water Cloud Empire is the only one, you go to other places to look for it, you can find the same, this string is for you." This necklace, put it somewhere else, let alone tens of millions, see that you and your father are also locals, you should make a friend, six million cloud coins for you, how about it! Good thing, I can't wait to give myself a string. ”

"it!"

Nalan Zhe was taken aback, and he couldn't wait to spray this profiteer's face with shit, six million, why don't you grab it! A high-grade ice pearl is only 200,000, and 20 is at most 4 million, even if this chain is a Taiji product, it will add another 500,000, and this guy wants to sell it for 6 million, which is too frustrating!

Shui Yunzhu's reaction was much more direct than Nalan Zhe's, and he didn't say much, he took Nalan Zhe's little hand and was about to leave.

"Hey, don't go, you, you have something to discuss, come back, let's sit down and talk." The boss hurriedly pulled the two back, in fact, he would not be like this when he was in normal times, although the people who came and went to the black market auction hall were all rich people, it was impossible for ordinary people to afford ice pearls, so they would touch it and have a good time. But the two buyers in front of him are different, the older one is magnificent, and he has an aristocratic face, which is not something that he can pretend to be, he must have been pampered since he was a child and grew up in a superior environment. And this little blind boy is even more amazing, he looks like he is only five or six years old, but he gives people an awe-inspiring temperament, and he is not a young master of ordinary people.

Shui Yunzhu had the intention to buy it, but there was no money in his pocket, so he had no intention of bargaining, but unfortunately the boss thought that he was rich, and he was enthusiastic, so he immediately arranged for someone to make a pot of good Longjing tea and personally poured a cup for Shui Yunzhu.

"Don't worry, it's okay if you don't buy it, let's make friends. Little master, this is your tea, take it. You just say how much money you want to buy, I don't want to make money, I can sell it to you, as the so-called gold is easy to get, bosom friends are hard to find, you can make a price. ”

This boss is too capable of saying it, it is really a good material for doing business, Shui Yunzhu was a little overwhelmed, and he looked embarrassed, thinking that I have 200,000 yuan in my hand, can you sell it?

Nalan Zhe pretended that he was a child, and said prankfully: "Boss, do you sell it for two million?"

"Huh?" The boss was shocked, thinking that he couldn't bargain like this when he was in the world, two million, it was too outrageous, just kidding, but there was still a smile on his face, "The little young master said that he laughed, even if it is an average quality Snow Country Ice Pearl, like this string, it will cost at least four million, Ha Luha, little young master, you touch this texture." ”

Nalan Zhe thinks that Lao Tzu is just a fifteen-year-old child, and he understands the texture of bird feathers, this profiteer can really talk nonsense.

"That's it, boss, you can say the lowest price, the price is right, we will consider buying it. Shui Yunzhu calmly took a sip of tea, and commented by the way, "Well, this tea is good, it seems to be the Shifeng Longjing before the rain, although it is said that 'it is the top grade before the rain, and it is a treasure before the Ming Dynasty', but this tea is almost the same as the treasure, but unfortunately the taste is slightly astringent, this is not a problem with tea, it is a problem with water, only the water of Tulan Lake is suitable for soaking in Shifeng Longjing, but remember to boil the water for a while before the tea fragrance can be brewed." ”

Hearing Shui Yunzhu's words, the boss made a desperate appearance, and his heart was also admired to the ground, although he didn't know anything about the tea ceremony, but his father was a master of tea tasting, and the evaluation given by the guest in front of him was exactly the same as that given by his father, you should know that the price of Longjing before the rain was expensive, and it was extremely difficult to buy, and sure enough, the identity of this guest was extraordinary, if you can really sell this string of snow country ice pearls, this year will be a perfect ending.

"You're so right, at first glance, you are a tea master, you can't say this without more than ten years of skill. Well, since you are so close to you, this string of ice pearls will be five million for you, and I haven't made a penny. ”

Nalan Zhe is most disgusted with these unscrupulous profiteers who open their eyes and talk nonsense, you can still be so enthusiastic and deceive fools without making a penny. Moreover, not to mention five million, there is no money to buy five hundred thousand, but fortunately, this tea is good, but you can stay for a while, at least mix a cup of good tea and drink.

Shui Yunzhu's thoughts are no different from Nalan Zhe, it is not easy to find Longjing before the rain, anyway, it is still early before the auction starts, so stay here.

It's a pity that the boss is destined to lose a pot of good tea today......

(Probably the day after tomorrow will be able to change the state, hehe, in order to celebrate, when the state is changed, continue to update the 10,000 words, Xiao Leng is refueling, everyone is also cheering, bet on a few votes to recommend it!)
