Chapter Twenty-Eight: Three Treasures
Not because of anything else, just because the place where the small stone that caught his attention was placed really made Chu Changqing speechless.
As we all know, when setting up a stall, the vendors usually spread a piece of paper or blanket on the ground first, and then put the things on it. This is done to prevent the goods from being harmed, and secondly, it is more neat and clean, which is conducive to attracting buyers to your 'store'.
In the place where things are matted, a few heavy things such as a few stones are usually pressed on, just in case a strong wind blows the stall away. Speaking of which, I believe everyone knows what attracted Chu Changqing's attention.
The stone was small, not even the size of a baby's fist, and was silently placed on the very edge, unnoticed. Picking up the stone at random, Chu Changqing clearly felt that the inexplicable energy in his right hand was churning at the same time.
"It seems that it is indeed it!" Chu Changqing whispered in his heart, and then put it on the ground. He knows very well that the people in this business are shrewd to death, and if you are even the slightest interested in something, they will multiply the price or hundreds of times and slaughter you.
"Is this piece of jade really as good as you say?" Chu Changqing was still holding the jade plate in his left hand at this time, and he pretended to show a surprised look on his face, as if he was shocked.
"Of course, what I said is true. Seeing that Chu Changqing was gradually deceived, the peddler was overjoyed, and immediately said without hesitation, "In this market, who doesn't know how I and I Li Si behave, it is definitely Tong Suo, how about it? ”
"This ......" Chu Changqing showed a look of embarrassment and hesitation on his face, which made the old man behind him frown tightly, with his ability, he could naturally see that it was a standard waste product, but this was a test for Chu Changqing, and it was inconvenient for him to interfere.
"The price is too expensive, I don't have that much money on me......"
"Ah, how much do you pretend, or else, how about I give you five thousand gold coins?" is that interesting, what about five thousand gold coins, pay me to death!" the peddler looked pained.
"But...... I don't have that much money yet......" Chu Changqing was embarrassed.
"Well, how many do you have? Three thousand...... No...... You've got a thousand gold coins, right?"
"I only have a hundred gold coins...... "An inaudible voice spat out from Chu Changqing's mouth, causing the vendor who was just about to close his mouth to immediately petrify. The muscles on his face twitched irrepressibly, his eyes widened, and when he was about to be angry, he saw the embarrassed and shy look on Chu Changqing's face, and he was suddenly deflated.
"I said, little brother, aren't you playing with my brother? I'm a treasure, how can I sell you a hundred gold coins? In this way, you are long, and I will give you two hundred gold coins, now it's okay!" said the peddler, and at the same time muttered in his heart: "Malegobi, I always thought that I had met a fat sheep today, and I was going to slaughter him, but I didn't expect it to be a garbage product, I bah! Lao Tzu's jade plate was bought with a thirty silver coins, and it can be sold for two hundred gold coins.
At this time, there were already a lot of people around the stall watching the excitement, and when they saw that Chu Changqing was trading with Li Si's bastard, everyone was unlucky for Chu Changqing in their hearts. In the chaotic market, this Li Si is also a relatively famous figure. Because, his nickname is 'Trick you to death!', alas, poor little fellow!
"But I only have a hundred gold coins, I just came from out of town, and I came here to fight for a place in the Immortal Cultivation Academy. With so much money on him, and all the expenses had to be discarded, he only had seventy gold coins to use. So, big brother, if you feel that the price is right, sell it to me, and if it is not suitable, I have to give it up. Chu Changqing said in a deep voice, put the jade plate in his hand on the stall, stood up and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Just as Chu Changqing was about to turn around, the hawker shouted out his mouth, and a hint of joy appeared in the depths of his eyes, Chu Changqing quickly turned around, and looked at the vendor pitifully with his eyes.
"Alas, looking at your pitiful appearance, and your age is not very old, I will sell this jade plate to you at a loss! Alas, who made me soft-hearted, I can only consider myself unlucky. Hawker Li Si had a painful look on his face.
"Thank you, big brother, thank you so much!" Chu Changqing said excitedly, picked up the jade plate, and at the same time, took the small stone in his hand, "Big brother, you have a good heart, can you give me this little stone by the way, I like it very much." ”
Glancing at the grateful expression on Chu Changqing's face, Li Si looked at the small stone that he had discarded again, and his eyes rolled for a moment, but then he was relieved when he thought that Chu Changqing was a chick. That little stone was of no use to him in the slightest, and it didn't hurt to give it to him, not to mention that he had earned a lot.
"Well, that little stone is also given to you. ”
"Thank you, big brother, I will come to you again when I have the opportunity in the future. Chu Changqing excitedly grabbed the jade plate and the small stone in his hand, quickly took out a hundred gold coins from his body, pointed out seventy, and handed them over.
Seeing Chu Changqing's back disappear, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Li Si's mouth. At this time, Zhang Qian, the stall next to him, smiled enviously and said to him: "I said Li Si, I slaughtered a little fat sheep again today! Yes, yes! Invite buddies to dinner in the evening!"
"No problem, but this fat sheep is a little small today, and next time I will definitely slaughter a big one, haha......!"
Walking on the street, Chu Changqing touched the small stone in his pocket, and smiled secretly in his heart. He knew that at this time, the vendor must also be laughing, laughing at him for slaughtering a fat sheep, but he didn't know that the bigger fat sheep was actually himself......
"Little guy, yes! I didn't expect you to have this kind of ability, tsk......" An old man who followed behind Chu Changqing followed at this time, walking side by side with him, a pair of smiling eyes staring at Chu Changqing's slightly delicate face.
"Old man, I'm afraid this kind of trick will be difficult for you to see, so don't make fun of me. Chu Changqing said embarrassedly, up to now, he didn't dare to have any disrespect for the old man in front of him, because he didn't know anything about the old man's incomprehension.
"No...... No!" the old man waved his hand, "your trick is simple, but not everyone can do it, and it can be as realistic as yours." If not, I know your details, and I'm afraid I will be deceived by you. Especially with your delicate and shy face, you are definitely a master who eats people and does not spit out bones, haha!
"The old man smiled, in front of you, how dare the juniors compare with you. ”
"Well, by the way, let me ask you, what are you doing with that little stone? That's a waste, it's not as good as your jade plate, can you explain it to me?" the old man wondered.
Chu Changqing, who was moving forward, heard the old man's words, stopped with a 'rub', turned around and looked at the old man, and glanced at the corner of his mouth slightly, "I said old man, you don't need to do this again." I don't believe that with your eyes, even the Qiankun ring can be recognized, and you will not be able to recognize this small stone? Although I don't know what this little stone is used for or what its name is, I can be sure of one thing: that is, the value of this small stone is far more than this jade plate several times or even hundreds of times, do you say yes?"
was stared at by Chu Changqing's straight gaze, and after a while, the old man seemed to be unable to stand this kind of treatment, and finally compromised. "Okay, okay! I'm not testing you anymore, what you're saying is the truth. It seems, little one, you've found a little use for your special abilities, good, good!" said the old man, nodding his head with a satisfied expression.
"What special ability?" Chu Changqing asked suspiciously at the words that came out of the old man's mouth.
"Nonsense, it's your ability to identify treasures, what is it called if it's not a special ability?" the old man said dissatisfied.
"Oh. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, let's continue the treasure hunt, there are two more pieces. ”
