Chapter 5: Tiger Bone Rosary
I was stunned and wondered, "What?" Is there so much in the leather business? ”
Zhang Yu nodded and explained: "Most of the leather shops sell red fox skins and leopard skins, and they can sell at least tens of thousands of pieces every year. ”
"Oh? So what's the deal with selling so many red fox skins and money leopard skins? ”
I asked, puffing out the smoke with interest.
Zhang Yu thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "I told you that you must not spread it out, this is our way of eating, in fact, the red fox skins and leopard skins sold by the leather shops every year are changed from grass fox skins and leopard skins." ”
I was taken aback and asked in disbelief, "Changed?" Can the skin be changed? ”
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Then why can't you?" Soak the grass fox skin and the golden leopard skin in a special potion, and when the skin is soft and colored, it will be red fox skin and money leopard skin in the eyes of the layman. ”
I was amazed to hear it, but I didn't expect that the leather business and the antique business also have new fakes, but the interlacing is like a mountain, and even an old man like me has never heard of it.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, I saw that the time was ripe and asked Zhang Yu tentatively: "Old fish, you are hunting in the mountains in the Xing'an Mountains, you must be able to distinguish a lot of animal bones, right?" ”
As soon as Zhang Yu heard me say this, he immediately came to his senses and said: "It's not that I blow with you, the animals in this mountain, from rabbits and pheasants, to leopards and tigers, are not recognized by your brother Yu." ”
As soon as I saw Zhang Yu boasting about Haikou, I didn't grind, so I took out the white bone rosary from my pocket and handed it over.
"Gotcha, Brother Lao Yu to see what kind of bones are there? Is it a tiger's bone? ”
Zhang Yu took the white bone rosary and immediately sank his face as soon as he touched it with his hand: "Where did you get this thing, it's a little evil." ”
I nodded and said, "This is a yin thing, can it be evil?" ”
Zhang Yu responded, and put the white bone rosary under the light to look at it carefully, and then said in a deep voice: "I heard the master say before, in addition to the fact that the leather masters who ran the rivers and lakes in the past liked to sell strong pills and sold tiger bones, those who sold tiger bones pretended to be our Northeasterners, because we have Siberian tigers in that pimple, but they have been selling tiger bones for hundreds of years, and according to their selling methods, tigers may become extinct animals." ”
After a pause, Zhang Yu continued: "In fact, if the tiger is so easy to catch, there will be no Wu Song to fight the tiger, those leather masters who sell tiger bones are actually not selling tiger bones but camel leg bones, they remove the camel leg bones out of the shade and then carve them into the shape of tiger claws, and then put them on a small stove to roast, and after a few hours, the oil and water in the camel leg bones will be roasted out and condensed on the surface, even smoother and shiny than the real tiger bones." ”
I was a little surprised and asked, "Old fish, do you mean that this string of white bone rosaries is made of camel leg bones?" ”
Zhang Yu shook his head and said: "No, this is a real string of tiger bone prayer beads, the reason why it is so pulp and mellow is actually because its owner likes to play with it too much for too long." ”
As soon as I heard it, I came to life, one is the cherished tiger bone, and the other is the thing that the original owner has in mind, and it is not strange to be able to become a yin product.
The most important thing is that this is really a string of tiger bone prayer beads, doesn't it answer the sentence that the fierce spirit resents the white tiger and the dragon needs bones?
"I asked you something, you tell me the truth, is your kid in trouble?"
Zhang Yu saw that my face was a little ugly, so he put away his appearance and asked seriously.
But this matter is completely caused by me collecting yin goods alone, and whether it is the curse of the evil spirit or the lock of Longtan, it is too dangerous, I don't want to involve Zhang Yu as well, so I snorted:
"What can I do, I just want to see what kind of bone this rosary is made of, since it is a tiger bone, it will definitely be sold at a good price, and then please drink Moutai."
Zhang Yu was skeptical, but fortunately he didn't continue to ask.
After being silent for a while, I pretended to ask casually, "Didn't I hear you say that there is a way to get a batch of military flashlights, help me get a few?" ”
This kid is not boasting, there are often people in their hunter line who take the big guy up the mountain to hunt, and that group of people have a batch of eliminated military flashlights all over the sky.
Zhang Yu said with a smile: "Look at what you said, don't say it's a military flashlight, as long as you have money, the fox spirit can get you one." ”
While bragging, he took over the list of supplies, and then his eyes became solemn: "Military flashlights, folding sapper shovels, climbing ropes, compressed biscuits, I said how you kid hid it, it turns out that your kid is a fucking big job!" ”
As he spoke, he smiled flatteringly at me again, "How is it?" Take you Brother Yu? Recently, I can't even open the pot. ”
Zhang Yu is used to coming and going in the wind and rain in the old forest, and all he encountered before were wild boar herds, poisonous mountain bees, red-clothed imps and other powerful things, and now he has long been a little uncontrollable for three melons and two dates and people all day long.
These days, he has offered to collect yin goods with me more than once, although I know that he is not an ordinary person, but the yin goods business is not a dinner party, and he will really lose his head if he doesn't do it.
"No, not this time."
I lit a cigarette and took a puff of it, and said in a deep voice.
Zhang Yu had a hot temper and scolded his mother, and I couldn't hide the ins and outs of the white bone rosary.
I thought that Zhang Yu would retreat in the face of difficulties, but I didn't think that this old boy complained angrily after listening to me: "Song Ming, your kid is really not righteous enough, what did you do to forget my brother?" Hunter, the authentic hunter of the Great Khing'an Mountains, can catch tigers when you go up the mountain, and catch dragons when you go into the water, isn't it just a sin dragon, I'll do it for you, and I guarantee that it will be beautiful. ”
I was moved in my heart, I didn't expect Zhang Yu to really not drop the chain at the critical moment.
However, in the next second, Zhang Yu grinned at me stupidly: "Hehe, old Song, is the Tang Ruyi you said really look like Maggie Cheung?" ”
I kicked him again angrily, feeling that this kid is going to lock Longtan as a road movie of two men and a woman threesome.
"No, it's really dangerous this time, I can't hurt you."
Although I hope to have Zhang Yu's help in my heart, the white bone rosary alone is already very dangerous, and if you add Suolongtan, I am afraid it is really a life of nine deaths.
"If you say that, you fucking find a vixen to go, you are really not a brother of the damn man."
Zhang Yu said angrily and slammed the list of supplies on the table.
I was stunned for a long time, then reached out and patted Zhengse on Zhang Yu's shoulder and said, "If we can come back, I will invite you to drink Remy Martin." ”
Early the next morning, a Toyota without a license plate stopped in front of the leather shop, Zhang Yu said a few words to the man in the car and took down two hiking bags from the car, which were exactly the equipment we needed.
At noon, Tang Ruyi's jeep arrived as scheduled, and Zhang Yu and I stood in front of the door with hiking bags on our backs.
Tang Ruyi looked at me and then at Zhang Yu and said with a smile: "Two people? Do you want to add money? ”
