The shopkeeper wore a black jade silk melon skin hat on his head, tortoiseshell reading glasses, a goatee curled up one after another, and squinted his eyes and picked up the ring.

Eyes lit up!

He's never seen this thing!

It's rare!

A ring, the silver body of the ring, the main body alone should have two layers, and the card surface is another layer, and then on the sword-shaped card, a golden dragon is welded again. The dragon didn't know how it was carved, and it was lifelike.

Another ring, the main body is also silver, two layers of welding, and the outer layer is curly grass pattern. There is a circle of gold on the plate, the gold is inlaid with broken diamonds, and the inner ring is silver, and the yellow diamonds are inlaid with it, so that the color can be symmetrical. In the center, there is a large yellow gemstone.

One ring is beautiful and magnificent, and the other is delicate and luxurious.

It's not a product of this era at all, so the visual impact is particularly great.

The old shopkeeper deliberately frowned: "Hmm...... Light gold dust gold, rough wool silver ......"

This is a cliché, someone came to pawn, if it is cotton silk fabric, it is named "tattered clothes" to describe, if it is jewelry, it is crowned with "light gold dust". If it is a pewter, it must carry the word "waste" to devalue the item.

"Hehe, poor Yan leaks the house, there are eyes without beads...... Zhao Chuanxin immediately went back.

You say that my things are broken and the workmanship is rough, so I will say that you are a broken place, and the shopkeeper has no vision at all.

Shopkeeper: "......"

You're so witty!

Zhao Chuanxin had something important to do, and he didn't want to talk nonsense with him, so he said: "Gold is real gold, silver is pure silver, inlaid gems are foreign, and they are very precious!" The work is Seiko, this kind of inlay you can find a craftsman to imitate, and I will give it away in vain if you can make it in China! I brought it back from England and it was made using the latest industrial process, and the two rings cost a total of £50! ”

The rings were actually made by Zhao Chuanxin himself.

He plays carving, has a carving foundation, and it is not difficult to learn techniques such as gold and silver jewelry inlay and engraving. At that time, he was used to show off his skills, but in fact, he was a craftsman at best, and the styles were all imitated, and there were no original elements.

But even if it is imitated, it is unique at this time.

The shopkeeper was robbed of white for a while, and he choked and rolled his eyes. Ordinary people come to pawn, or they are desperate poor people, they are stupid. Either it is the second ancestor of the banner people, who can't wipe the face of the nobles, and he is unwilling to speak.

Where is it like this man in front of him, with sharp teeth.

When he heard that it had been bought for fifty pounds, he took a long breath.

Ban Yan sighed: "The thing is good, and the distinguished guest is also a knowledgeable person." But the pawnshop has the rules of our pawnshop, and it has always been able to be a forty percent price, and no counteroffer is allowed. The monthly interest is three cents, and the monthly interest is deducted first, even if it is redeemed on the same day, it must be deducted on a monthly basis. Three years to die, two months to live. The vote is not named, and the vote is not recognized......"

In a small place, the pawnshop is here, and Zhao Chuanxin has no choice at all.

He asked, "How much?" ”

The shopkeeper looked at it by the light, and pretended to say, "Fifty pounds?" After all, there is no basis for this thing. Coupled with the fact that there are already some obscurity and scratches on the ring, the silver dollar can only be converted into 40 yuan for you, and the price of 50% is 20 yuan! ”

This price is one-tenth of Zhao Chuanxin's offer! Even if he is a nonsense price, he thinks that this pawnshop shopkeeper's heart is really dark!

Syllable!

Slammed the cabinet: "Dang!" ”

When he left the pawnshop, the shopkeeper tilted his head and said disdainfully: "Loser!" ”

……

When Zhao Chuanxin said those words, Liu Guigui and Zhao Zhongyi treated him as "guests".

Not only did they give him food, but they also drove him home and found him a place to live.

The town is not yet fully developed, and it is not as full of people as it was in later generations.

Zhao Zhongyi and Liu Guigui are neighbors and live in the middle of nowhere. But in Zhao Chuanxin's view, this is not even a suburb in later generations.

Zhao Zhongyi is a good way to catch a car, his craft is not a craft passed down for three generations, Zhao Chuanxin remembers that when his grandfather was in the production team in later generations, he was a car boss who drove a car.

The ox cart swayed and walked on the dirt road, which was very bumpy.

Zhao Chuanxin looked around on the ox cart, and was amazed everywhere.

After a while, I came to Lugangling Village.

At the entrance of the village, a group of children ran wildly.

The child with the head was neatly dressed and wore a tiger head hat. The group of children in the back were much worse, some were half-stretched, some were patched, and most were wearing straw sandals.

One of the buried children, who had a river of snot, saw the ox cart and shouted, "Father, uncle, you are back!" ”

Zhao Chuanxin had a very peculiar emotion brewing in his heart!

Could this little kid be his grandfather? He had a very faint impression of his grandfather, and he didn't remember much about it, so his grandfather was gone.

Sure enough, Zhao Zhongyi jumped off the ox cart with a smile and hugged the snot baby into the ox cart.

Zhao Chuanxin found that Liu Guigui looked at the snot baby with envy in his eyes.

This product has not yet started a family, and his mind is full of the idea of saving money to marry a daughter-in-law.

At this time, the head of the child Wang pinched his waist with both hands and said, "Zhao Hongzhi, let me come down." I didn't even ride in the XHQ, how dare you make a mistake? ”

Hey, I'm not old, and my tone is not small.

XHQ is the head of the three banners, and its status is indeed noble in the Qing Dynasty. However, at this time, the banner people in the Northeast have completely declined, and no one takes them seriously, only they are very proud.

Zhao Chuanxin looked at it with great interest.

When Zhao Hongzhi heard this, he couldn't sit still and wanted to get out of the car.

was held down by Zhao Zhongyi, and then shouted to the children below with a smile: "Come up and take you together." ”

It's a bit interesting, Zhao Chuanxin feels that his ancestor is actually not so honest. Behind the kindness, there is also a kind of arrogance that is unwilling to be left behind.

When the babies heard this, they screamed and climbed up on the ox cart.

Zhao Chuanxin looked at it, and he jumped down to make room.

I saw that the child's angry face turned red: "I don't take a car, our family takes a sedan chair." ”

It's just that these children are screaming, and no one listens to him.

In the end, he could only get into the car stupidly.

Liu Guigui joked to the child king: "Defu, your kid is still sitting in a sedan chair, your father's sedan chair has already been sold, and he went to the gambling house and lost it all, how can there be a sedan chair for you to sit on?" ”

Telford? Dove?

Zhao Chuanxin, who was drinking water, squirted out in one gulp.

Seeing him like this, Liu Guigui whispered to him: "This kid's family is Ilgen Jue Luo's family, but the family is about to be ruined." ”

Ilgen Jueluo Defu said angrily: "You are talking nonsense, my father said that my family does not sit in a sedan chair because the doctor told my father to move more in order to strengthen his body. ”

Suddenly, Zhao Chuanxin interjected: "Your father lied to you." ”

Burst......

Liu Guigui and Zhao Zhongyi smiled unkindly.

Defu turned his head and pointed the finger at Zhao Chuanxin: "Okay, you are a bold man, you actually shaved your braids, do you want to rebel?" Believe it or not, I asked the government to take you? ”

Zhao Chuanxin didn't say anything, and took out a paper bag from his pocket, which was full of sugar balls.

Said to Defu: "Do you want to eat?" ”

Defoe swallowed.

A circle of children was swallowing.

Zhao Chuanxin had already seen it.

Although Defu was dressed neatly, the tiger head hat was threaded in several places, and the sewing was crooked. Although the clothes did not have pudding, they were a whole circle smaller.

Just like most flag people now, donkey dung eggs have a smooth surface.

Defoe twisted his head.

Zhao Chuanxin scattered the sugar balls.

Finally, take one and put it in front of Defu.

A group of children are eating it, and even Liu Guigui is a little greedy, not to mention that he has not eaten candied dim sum for a long time, but he has tasted Defu.

In the end, the face did not resist the temptation, and he snatched it and put it in his mouth.

This is maltose, the sugar ball is very small, and most people buy a handful of coaxing mouths for their children, and they have to celebrate the New Year's holidays.

Zhao Chuanxin gave two more to Zhao Zhongyi and Liu Guigui.

After a while, this group of little children called "Uncle Uncle" cordially.

When he arrived at Zhao Zhongyi's house, Zhao Chuanxin met his grandmother and the old lady he no longer knew what to call it, that is, Zhao Zhongyi's mother.

Both women were wrapped in small feet......

I don't know why, I got angry when I saw the little foot Zhao Chuanxin. It's not that I'm angry with them, it's angry at this era, and I'm angry at those who treat ugliness as beauty's aesthetics!

Therefore, he took out another bag of sugar balls, which was regarded as a door-to-door gift, and went back to his house with Liu Guigui, out of sight and out of mind.

Liu Guigui's house can be described as a family with four walls.

In the snack table is his kitchen utensils. There was a small square kang table in the room, and there was nothing but it!

Zhao Chuanxin sighed, and didn't make the straw mat on the kang, he was afraid that there would be lice and fleas in it. Squatting at the door, he took out his diary and opened it to look at it.

Seeing Liu Guigui stretching out his head to peek, he took the opportunity to ask: "Fugui, what do you see written in this book?" ”

Liu Guigui shook his head: "Didn't write anything?" Besides, even if I write, I can't read it, I can't read! ”

"Hehe......"

It's best that the words in the diary can only be seen by himself.

[I'm resting and continuing on my way.] 】

Ah, how unlucky it is!

It gives people a bad premonition.

[The Shadow Forest seems to have no end, and the grassy little hairy path, after walking through, every time I turn back, it makes me feel unrecognizable about the return trip. 】

[I walked for a long time, and after walking a long way, there were dots of light between the trees in front of me. I thought I would walk out of the forest, or see the light of day. When I got closer, I found that there was a glowing flower. 】

[Among the flowers that shone like stars, I saw humanoid creatures not much larger than rats, and they were working together to bury grass seeds in the soil. 】

[They spotted me, and one of the dwarfs ran towards me. 】

[The dwarf speaks: Stranger, are you lost?] 】

Zhao Chuanxin's heart was mentioned just now.

In his impression, dwarfs or something, they are generally murderous.

[I shook my head to say no.] 】

[The dwarf said: Stranger, the air here is full of spores. Try not to stay for a long time or you will get sick. See those winged moths in the sky? They are attracted by the bright light of the lanterns. Their droppings fall to the ground and nourish the bacteria here, which become nutrients for the lanterns when they die. The fruit of the lantern flower is our food. 】

This closed-loop ecosystem has made Zhao Chuanxin interested. He had also heard that if the spores were too much, he would suffer from mushroom lung.

He wrote in his diary: "I asked the dwarfs: Why don't you get sick? ”

[The dwarf seemed very happy to have outsiders to chat with him, and the conversation was very interesting, saying: Stranger, outsiders call us forest elves. Forest elves never get sick, they don't get poisoned, that's how our constitution is. 】

Zhao Chuanxin wrote: "I said to the forest elves: So, if an animal eats you, will it be poisonous? ”

【Forest Spirit: ......】
