Chapter 25, a knife is poor, a knife is rich, and a knife pierces linen
The ox cart turned into a very spacious alley.
The hutongs here are different from the kind of hutongs that live in the past life.
There is only a long dirt fence, two meters high, and nothing else can be seen.
Almost five or six minutes later, the ox cart stopped.
"Let's go, remember, don't talk too much."
Then, Qin Fangzhi walked into the main entrance with a patched Yuan Xiaomi.
Getting started, a different world.
A big, big yard, and in the yard, people are shouting and shouting.
There are those who sell food, there are those who sell clothes, and there are ......
Well?!
Yuan Xiaomi took a closer look, it was selling ore.
No, it's supposed to be selling rough stones.
Rough refers to a certain natural ore that has not been processed, including jadeite rough, agate rough, crystal rough, diamond rough, etc.
In the previous life, there were many such ore merchants on the border of Yun Province, so choose a good location and shake a group of people who like to gamble on stones.
One knife is poor, one knife is rich, and one knife pierces sackcloth.
It can be seen that the cruelty of gambling stones.
In the past, in order to get better diamonds and jadeite, she would also participate in this kind of public market.
But she rarely gambles, and usually buys what has already been opened.
Occasionally, when the interest comes, I will buy a rough stone and try it, but there are fewer times when I can win a bet.
Right now, seeing that there are rough stones for sale, Xiaomi is a little surprised what this venue is for.
"That's a gambling stone, there are fewer during the day, and it's more lively here at night, let's go......"
After Qin Fangzhi explained in a whisper, he took Xiaomi and walked inside.
Almost all the places you pass by are small traders and vendors, selling everything.
It is in stark contrast to the depressed streets outside the city walls.
The two walked for nearly twenty minutes before they arrived at the location.
Looking at the tall bamboo house in front of him, Xiaomi raised his little face and looked at Qin Fangzhi.
"Let's go."
Then, the two came to the door.
Qin Fangzhi took out a gray wooden sign from his jacket pocket and handed it to the gatekeeper.
One of them glanced at the wooden card and raised his hand to swing it.
The two of them walked into the bamboo hut.
As soon as he entered the door, Millet smelled a strong smell of smoke.
In her previous life, her grandfather also liked incense, so he smelled it from a young age.
But this smell has never been smelled.
But it feels a little familiar.
Suddenly, someone pulled his arm down.
Xiaomi's body was stunned, and he looked up at Qin Fangzhi.
"What are you doing standing there stupidly, let's go."
Seeing the other party's tight cheeks, Xiaomi suddenly realized that the person he was going to meet this time was either a thief with money or a thief with power.
In short, in this place of Az County, there must be a right to speak.
After all, even the arrogant old man Qin looked very nervous.
"Yo, Fang Zhi is here."
The two of them had just turned a corner when a slightly old voice came from their ears.
"yes, I'm here to bring you something good."
Although Qin Fangzhi replied with a smile.
But Xiaomi, who was standing on the side, could feel that the other party was very cramped.
After a few more steps, she finally saw the buyer of Sam Wang.
An old man of about fifty or sixty years old.
Gray hair, gray goatee.
Only the eyebrows are black all over the face.
An old man who looks very kind.
"Oh? What's good? β
Hearing this, Qin Fangzhi hurriedly looked back at Xiaomi and motioned for her to take out King Sam.
Mi understood, turned the bamboo basket in front of him, and took out the king of ginseng wrapped in red cloth.
"Mr. Jiang, take a look."
Jiang Zongru glanced at the red cloth, his eyebrows raised slightly, and the bodyguard on his side immediately walked out and took the items in Qin Fangzhi's hand.
Then he walked in front of Jiang Zongru and opened the red cloth.
It was supposed to be inspected.
But when Jiang Zongru saw the contents of the red cloth, he immediately raised his hand to stop it.
Then he got up excitedly and walked over.
Seeing the large ginseng in the red cloth, he pointed at Qin Fangzhi, who was standing not far away, with shortness of breath.
"Fang knows, how many years?"
"800 years, no more!"
"Eight hundred years!"
Jiang Zongru carefully tasted these words, as if he saw that his life could be increased by more than ten years or even decades.
In an instant, it is difficult to hide the joy.
"Great! Fang Zhi, I accepted your love this time, let's say, how much. β
Although Jiang Zongru is not a generous person, he is not stingy with Qin Fangzhi.
After all, the other party is a doctor, and he really brought himself life-sustaining ginseng.
This love must be returned.
"Mr. Jiang, to be honest, I don't know much about his price."
Seeing that the other party was modest, Jiang Zongru understood what he meant, so he waved his arm.
"Then I'll set the price."
When the words fell, he beckoned to the people around him.
The people around him understood, turned around and went to prepare.
"Fang Zhi, come on, let's sit down and talk, how can the money be prepared for a while, don't worry."
"There's no hurry."
Qin Fangzhi took Xiaomi to sit at the tea table.
Looking at the tea in front of him, Xiaomi sniffed gently.
Longjing, or special spring tea Longjing.
This Mr. Jiang is very good at enjoying it.
Jiang Zongru wanted to chat with Qin Fangzhi for a few words, but he saw the fat girl next to him, smelling the fragrance of tea.
It's a bit interesting.
Just look at the other party dressed in rags, unlike the children of rich families, will they know tea?
"Want to drink this tea?"
This sentence was obviously said to Xiaomi.
When Xiaomi heard this, he quickly shook his head, but he didn't dare to squeak.
After all, before coming, Old Man Qin repeatedly warned her not to talk nonsense.
"Haha, drink, it's not a new thing."
Xiaomi glanced at the old man Qin, and when he saw that the other party nodded, he picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Not to mention, this premium tea is really delicious.
Before wearing the book, her grandfather always asked her to drink tea, and she said that the tea was bitter and not delicious.
But now I think it's delicious.
The tea is in the mouth, and the aftertaste is sweet.
It turns out that many things, from a different angle, you can see a different side.
Just when Xiaomi was stunned, Jiang Zongru walked up to Qin Fangzhi and muttered a few words in a low voice.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to tell anyone about it."
"I believe you, we've been friends for many years."
Jiang Zongru patted Old Man Qin's shoulder, and then glanced at it, catching a glimpse of the red color in the bamboo basket of millet.
"What's in that basket? Red. β
"Huh? Be...... It's a snake fruit. β
Millet hurriedly bent down and took out three snake fruits from the bamboo basket.
"This fruit is very delicious, sweet and delicious, you can taste it."
The red snake fruit is indeed tempting.
Jiang Zongru didn't know what was going on, he was so cautious and cautious in his daily work, but he really took the snake fruit.
And I also took a hard bite.
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked.
Even Jiang Zongru himself was shocked.
"This fruit is so delicious!"
"It's delicious, if you like it, I'll give it to you."
Millet has a sweet mouth and smiles crookedly.
Although his cheeks are a little fat and his figure is bloated, it is precisely because of this that he looks particularly honest and cute, which lowers the vigilance of others.
Including Jiang Zongru.
"Thank you then!"
Jiang Zongru hugged the snake fruit and returned to his seat.
