Chapter 55 The lights are dim
The ancient town at night is still brightly lit, and the colorful fireworks bloom in the black sky, and the shouts of the vendors are connected.
Bai Ling walked to the stall of every vendor, he had to stay for a while, touch the east, look at the west, as long as it was good-looking, fun and delicious, he would raise his knife and sweep it into his pocket, it was Xiang Shaoying who paid the money, and it was Xiang Shaoying who carried the things.
"Wow, who am I? I am the Monkey Kingβ" Bai Ling put a mask on his head, and then took a wolf demon mask and put it on Xiang Shaoying's head, and continued: "The demon is not ready to surrender."
Xiang Shaoying was embarrassed.
"Ah, this sugar man seems to be delicious, boss, pinch me two. β
"Boss, how do you sell this jade bracelet?" Bai Ling asked, squatting in front of a stall.
"Three hundred taels of silver. β
"Boss, you're too tricky, you sell a broken bracelet so expensive, will your jade bracelet be fake? Look at your jade, it's not Lantian jade, can you sell it for two hundred and fifty taels?" Bai Ling bargained, she bought the jade pendant today, and almost bought a fake, so she couldn't suffer any more.
"Three hundred and fifty taels. β
"Boss, you-how can you do such a business!" Bai Ling's eyes widened.
"It's four hundred taels now. The boss said leisurely. The vendor owner was a lean man in his forties, dressed in a dark blue robe, with an air of elegance.
"You-" Bai Ling was extremely angry, she had always been invincible in bargaining, but she didn't expect to be planted here, Bai Ling stood up and said to Xiang Shaoying, "Shaoying, let's go, don't buy it!"
Xiang Shaoying lowered his head at this time, holding a small black stone in his hand, and his face was full of interest.
"Boss, how do you sell this stone?"
"Fifty taels. β
"Okay, boss, wrap it up for me. Xiang Shaoying replied briskly.
"Shaoying, have you been kicked in the head by a donkey, a broken stone that you can pick up casually on the ground, you spend fifty taels of silver to buy it, and you don't have to use it like this!" Bai Ling was very dissatisfied when he saw that Xiang Shaoying actually spent a lot of money to buy a broken stone, and the stone was half the size of an egg, and it was black and ugly.
"You don't know. Xiang Shaoying said with a smile: "This is a rare magnet in the world, which can absorb any iron artifact, you see." Xiang Shaoying said, took out the dagger given to him by Bai Juyi from his arms, put it on the ground, and then approached the little black stone, and the little black stone actually sucked the dagger on the ground out of thin air.
"It's magical. Bai Ling nodded repeatedly.
Xiang Shaoying took back the dagger and continued: "It has been recorded in the "Shennong Materia Medica" that a magnet is a piece of magnet, and a pound of iron is absorbed on all sides. Tao Hongjing, who was known as the 'Prime Minister of the Mountains' during the Liang Dynasty of the Southern Dynasty, once said that magnets are also found in the south today. If it is good, it is better to be able to suspend the needle for three, four, and five. I think this magnet can even suck up this dagger, and it should be the best longevity sand among magnets. And this longevity sand, has the effect of calming the liver and latent yang, calming the nerves, calming the convulsions, absorbing breath and relieving asthma, it is also a miracle medicine, and it is worth buying this longevity sand for fifty taels. β
"Papa-" When the boss heard this, he applauded and said, "This little brother didn't expect to be so knowledgeable. β
The boss smiled. Xiang Shaoying smiled, although he had never practiced martial arts when he was young, he was well-read, and he could know these things because he read more books. Xiang Shaoying asked: "Boss, how much does the jade bracelet cost now, I will also buy it too." β
"Brother is also a cheerful person, since you have seen this longevity sand, and sincerely want the jade bracelet, if you buy the magnet, the jade bracelet will be given to you. The boss said with a smile.
Bai Ling's eyes widened in surprise on the side, buying fifty taels of things, and giving four hundred taels of gifts...... Does the boss have any brains!
Xiang Shaoying was also stunned, "Boss, I think that jade bracelet is the most precious Hetian jade, will you lose money if you do this business?"
Bai Ling blushed a little on the side, it turned out that the jade turned out to be Hetian jade, He's bi is famous all over the world, Hetian jade is the most precious jade in the world, I don't know how much higher the price is than Lantian jade, and she even disliked that jade just now is not Lantian jade!
The boss laughed and said: "I, Xiao Sheng, do business, focus on making friends, little brother, I see that you are erudite and talented, and there is a heroic spirit between your eyebrows, and I have made up your friends." β
"It turned out to be Brother Xiao. Xiang Shaoying arched his hand and said, "Then Xiang Shaoying has thanked Brother Xiao here." β
After buying the magnet and jade bracelet, Xiang Shaoying and Bai Ling said goodbye to Xiao Sheng, and continued to walk forward, Bai Ling looked at the jade bracelet on his wrist, the color was white and delicate, the luster was transparent, and he loved it in his heart.
Bai Ling said happily: "Shaoying, I didn't expect you to really have two hits, I will go down the mountain to buy things in the future, I must bring you." β
In front, the voices of people were boiling, Bai Ling looked surprised, and excitedly pushed aside the crowd and squeezed over, Xiang Shaoying saw this, so he had no choice but to follow.
Xiang Shaoying followed Bai Ling into the crowd, only to see a high platform in the middle of the crowd, a middle-aged man about forty years old and slightly fat standing in front, it was the mayor of Anxing Town, the mayor of the town said with a smile: "It is the Chinese Valentine's Day, and it is the annual lantern grabbing conference, everyone knows that the lanterns in our Anxing Town Lantern Conference, but in front of the Weaver Girl Temple Niangniang, the man grabbed the lantern, he will definitely be able to have a bright future, and his wishes will come true. Young men in Anxing Town, if you have the courage, come and grab a favorite lantern and give it to your beloved woman!"
"Good!" cheered from the crowd.
On the high platform, there is a huge tower with a wooden shelf in the middle, dozens of lanterns are hung on the top of the tower, each one is exquisite, and the one in the middle is even more ingenious, the golden cloud pattern, the big red tassel, the fish leaping lotus embroidered on it, is lifelike.
"I want that one, wait for you to grab it for me. Bai Ling pulled Xiang Shaoying and pointed to the lantern in the middle and said.
"Do you want me to rob it?" Xiang Shaoying asked with a puzzled expression.
"If you don't go, who is going, do you want me to go?" Bai Ling glared at him.
"Okay, then I'll grab the best one for you later. Xiang Shaoying nodded and replied.
"Everyone grabs the lanterns, each with their own ability, but first declare one thing, do not fly on this lighthouse with light work, I believe that our young men in Anxing Town are all trustworthy. The mayor said, and with the mayor's order, a large group of people rushed towards the lighthouse.
