Half a month later.

The palace's action against the Sun family's medicine store had not yet begun, but the news that Quang Nam County was occupied by the rebel army spread widely.

For a while, the people were boiling, and the market was full of discussions about the chaotic army, and even Yulan, who did not leave the gate, asked with some interest what the remaining idle rebel army was like.

But in terms of the overall atmosphere, everyone is relatively relaxed, and it is more of a lively mentality.

After all, Quang Nam County and Changning County are separated by thousands of miles, and no matter how powerful the rebel army is, it will not be able to defeat it for a while.

The other is that no one thinks that the rebellion will become a climate.

The country of Yue has 32 counties, divided into 12 feudal kings, more than one million soldiers, and a county of Guangnan can't afford to turn over too much wind and waves.

Probably the most affected are the merchants who are heading south.

At this time, the dissemination of information was basically carried by cars, horses and boats.

The southern shipping lane was officially blocked, and the cargo ships that had not yet received the news continued to converge from all over the place, and finally all of them were blocked in the port.

Like the brothers who talked to Yu Xian before, they were lucky, and they sold the goods to Baibaolou at a fair price early without much loss.

But more businessmen can only press the goods in the port, and one more day of stay will be the loss of one more day, and some goods that are not easy to save will fall out of one price a day.

At this time, they either resist and gamble, betting that the imperial court can immediately quell the rebellion, and then they can continue to go south, and the war in the south will be calmed down, and they are in urgent need of supplies, and they may be able to make a lot of money.

Either you can only sell the goods at a low price, and you can save as much as you want.

At this time, it is a matter of who sells it faster.

For a while, prices collapsed, and the original ten taels of silver could be taken away for one or two silver at this time, just to clear the warehouse and leave, so under the action, the market will continue to decline.

The southbound merchants were unlucky, but the various trading houses in Changning City were full of money. In particular, a leader like Baibaolou has swallowed countless goods at ultra-low prices in a short period of time.

Frequent trading led to a boom in the market, and many small merchants from the surrounding area took the initiative to flock to Changning City, wanting to get a piece of the feast.

The entire city of Changning was lively.

And it was in this false prosperity that the jade award hosted by Baibaolou finally kicked off.

this day.

Yu Xian took Magnolia with 5,000 taels of silver, just like a rich boy who came to visit the mountains and rivers, and walked leisurely all the way to Baibaolou.

As for Chen Yi, he is still practicing hard and is reluctant to go out.

In her words, in two days, she will be able to draw qi into her body. But she had said that ten days ago.

Two days later, and two days, I don't know how many more days it will take.

Seeing her pious cultivation, Yu Xian almost couldn't help but give her a spirit stone to push her.

However, thinking that there was a stupid Yulan beside her, her two spirit stones might not necessarily help her to successfully sense the aura, so she extinguished this thought.

He was reluctant to give the spirit stones, but this time, he could choose a few pieces of jade with a little more spiritual energy to give to her.

At the entrance of the first floor of Baibao Building, the crowd was surging, and at a glance, it was full of black heads, and the noisy sound almost broke through the sky.

"Wow, that's a lot of people."

"Master, are we going to squeeze in?"

Magnolia hugged Yu Xian's arm tightly, with a little timidity on her face, but there was a look of eagerness in her eyes.

After all, she's just a teenage girl, and she likes to be lively by nature.

"No, let's go the other way."

Yu Xian patted Yulan's hand and walked to another entrance.

There are few people here, and there are guards from Baibaolou on both sides, all of them are burly and angry, and they almost hang signs that people are not allowed to enter.

A large chamber of commerce like Baibaolou will naturally have VIP access, and an invitation letter is required to enter.

Yu Xian didn't have an invitation, but he had a royal token.

King Fu's Mansion is the heaven of Changning City.

The token in his hand is enough to make most of his territory in the city unimpeded, which can be regarded as a hidden benefit.

When Yu Xian showed the token and got a notification inside, a tall waitress walked out immediately.

The waitress was in her early twenties, with an ordinary appearance, a flat body, a high ponytail, and a capable and refreshing atmosphere.

"Hello Lord Yu, Steward Liu really can't come out today, so he can't come to receive you as soon as possible, he asked me to say sorry to you.

My name is Lan Xiaohe, and I will serve you next.

There happen to be a few pieces of jade at this show that meet your requirements, do you want to check them out now? ”

"It's rare that Steward Liu still remembers my request and says thank you for me, you can just take me there."

Yu Xian's first impression of the waitress was very good, this Steward Liu was very good at choosing people, and he didn't take a vase to fool him.

"Okay, please come with me."

Lan Xiaohe's attitude is respectful, her posture is standard, and she bows slightly all the way, showing good professional quality.

Soon, a group of three people came to the exhibition hall on the second floor.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of the first floor, it is significantly more empty.

The hall was divided into booths, piled with jade stones of different colors and shapes, and large stones, and from time to time people came forward to negotiate prices.

The way of bargaining is also interesting, where the two put their hands in their sleeves to bid so that outsiders can't hear or see their prices.

There were also people gathered in a heap, and from time to time there would be a cheer from the middle, which would push the atmosphere to a climax.

"What are they doing? It looks hilarious. Yu Xian asked.

Lan Xiaohe glanced at it and explained, "They are gambling on stones. Gambling stone is to take the jade ore as a bet, by the person on the spot to open the stone bid, once there is a good jade can rise in price, but there is no jade will be lost.

Therefore, the gambling stone also has the reputation of a knife in heaven and a knife in hell. ”

Gambling stones? Isn't this the first choice for the protagonist of an ancient urban fantasy novel to make a fortune?

Yu Xian became a little interested, and his spiritual sense should see through the stone.

But this is more important than his magic weapon at this time.

Soon, Lan Xiaohe led Yu Xian and the two to a jade exhibition booth.

"My lord, I wonder if this whole piece of jade meets your requirements?"

Lan Xiaohe pointed to a huge irregular pale green jadeite jade stone placed in the middle of the booth, which was roughly estimated to be three feet square, that is, a whole piece of jade about one meter in length, width and height.

There are a lot of cotton wool-like impurities, but such a large amount is rare.

Yu Xian didn't have much research on jade, but he thought that such a large piece of jade was enough for him to refine a piece of embryo.

So he asked, "What is the price of this jade?" ”

The owner of the stall, a stout bearded man, walked up and stretched out his wide cuffs when he heard the words, signaling for bargaining.

Yu Xian waved his hand and said, "I won't do this, you just offer a price?" ”

The bearded man was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Lan Xiaohe on the side.

If this person hadn't been brought by the people from Baibaolou, he would have already started to drive people away.

Lan Xiaohe stepped forward: "My lord, this is the rule of this industry, they don't want others to hear their reserve price, which will cause them losses." Why don't I translate it for you? ”

"Okay." It doesn't matter what you do.

So Lan Xiaohe took the initiative to reach out to the cuffs of the beard, and the two began to bargain.

After a while, Lan Xiaohe withdrew his hand and whispered in Yu Xian's ear:

"My lord, he said that this piece of jade costs at least 98,888 taels of silver, and he will ask for a good fortune."

Yu Xian trembled on the spot, and his face turned white.

"What a robbery!"

He spent less than three thousand taels of silver in half a year when he came to the mortal world, and one hundred thousand taels was enough for him to go against his heart and take a risk.

Thinking like this, a bit of fierce light appeared in his eyes.

Grab the damn thing!

"My lord! This is Baibao Tower. ”

Lan Xiaohe immediately panicked, as if she could see Yu Xian's careful thoughts.

"Forget it, I'll give you a face."

Yu Xian waved his hand, he just thought about it, he also thought about sleeping with the princess.

In general, he is still a good boy who abides by the law, and he usually accepts a small bribe, how can he have the bad intention of killing people and grabbing treasures.

It's easy to see ghosts when you walk too much at night.

When you see a good thing, you want to grab it, and you develop this simple and rude bad habit, in case you meet an old yin one day, it will be the end of death.

After all, most of the people who can have treasures, except for a few lucky ones, have good strength.

He now eats and drinks without worry, has a lofty status, and has a path of cultivation to the sky, but taking the slightest risk is disrespectful to the golden finger.

Yu Xian was about to ask Baibaolou if there was a loan service, everyone was eating under the prince, and they were colleagues, and the interest should be cheaper.

"Phew! Pretending to be a waste of uncle's time. ”

The bearded man has long been resentful of this rich young master who doesn't understand the rules and pretends to be.

Now seeing that he was actually frightened by 100,000 taels, he felt that it was just an embroidered pillow, and he couldn't help but spit a sentence, and then turned back to his place.

"What does he call me?"

Yu Xian looked stunned, looking like "he didn't know I was going crazy".

Seeing this, Lan Xiaohe almost didn't catch his breath, knowing that the big thing was not good, she was so anxious that she almost cried.

"My lord, don't be impulsive, otherwise the steward won't be able to spare me, and I apologize to you for him.

There are other places besides this material, and I'll take you to see it again. ”

"Why are you apologizing for him?"

Yu Xian looked at the bearded man and shouted, "Hey, bearded, are those stones around you for sale?" ”
