Chapter 1025 Guessing Stones
Xu Yang walked into the crowd of onlookers.
In a small temporary stall, an ordinary-looking black-faced man wearing southern costumes stood behind the stall.
What this man from the Southern Territory wants to sell is a table full of stones of different sizes. The surface of these stones is either black, white, or dark red, and their appearance is unattractive.
Opposite the stall, stood a male cultivator in blue with thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing Northern Region costumes. The strange thing is that this man has a golden pupil in one eye.
The male cultivator in blue was still frothing at the corner of his mouth, and he was stroking a fist-sized "white stone" on the stall with one hand to praise him.
"This piece of rough stone, looking at its shell, is as white as flour, the sand is tightly turned, and it is heavy when pressed. First of all, it is something from Laochangkou."
As he spoke, he held a light-concentrating stone lamp and shined it on the surface of the stone.
It is also strange that under the illumination of the spirit stone lamp, the surface of the stone that was originally covered with white skin spread out a circle of smart white halo. The light passes through the gravel shell on the outside of the stone and refracts a shining ball of light inside the stone, as if there is a luminous spiritual object hidden inside. Especially as the sky gets darker, it becomes even more attractive.
"Look at the water head, it's almost transparent, look at the green fluorescence, like running water." The male cultivator in blue looked excited, as if he was holding a spiritual stone in his hand, "It's full of green ice material, Supreme Wood. "
Xu Yang stood behind the crowd and muttered in his heart: "This should be a kind of raw jade stone with a leather shell. In the Northern Territory, some earth spirit agates are born in stone eggs with an unattractive appearance. It's just that the one in this man's hand The raw stone is just more transparent than the earth spirit agate, but it’s not clear what’s underneath the skin.”
At this time, a young man from the Southern Region with big eyes and skin as healthy as wheat squeezed in from the back of the crowd.
"Excuse me, brother, is the jadeite produced in Miancui Mountain inside this stone?"
"Brother, you are right. These are the raw stones of Burmese jadeite. Cut them with a knife, and the true appearance of the jadeite is inside. Brother, do you want a piece? I, the Golden Eyed Leopard, will help you look at the goods and negotiate the price. Guaranteed You're so excited." The male cultivator in blue said while pointing to the golden pupil of his left eye.
"Can't I bargain directly?" The big-eyed boy hesitated and asked.
"Brother, you don't understand the value of this rough stone, and you were deceived by this old man from Miancui Mountain when you bargained for it. I'll help you cut it, and I'll only take a 10% commission. If the price is not right, you don't have to accept it." The guy who calls himself Golden Eyed Leopard explained with a smile.
"I want a better piece of jade as a gift for my loved ones." The big-eyed boy nodded and said seriously.
"This piece is good, let me help you negotiate the price." Golden Eyed Leopard gently weighed the white-skinned stone in his hand and said with determination.
"Okay," the young man blinked his big eyes, his long and curly eyelashes fluttering, "but I won't pay the spirit stone if I'm not satisfied with the price."
"No problem, I'll cover the bargain price with my Golden Eyed Leopard to ensure that you buy the right one. However, we have to agree with this little brother in advance. These rough stones are non-returnable after they are opened. No one can guarantee what's inside the shell. Jade will definitely rise sharply.”
The big-eyed boy thought for a while, and then said: "I know this, this is stone guessing. Before I came here, I asked that the truly top-quality Burmese jade stones are difficult to buy in the market. They are all bought by the rich and important people. Take it away, or make some ornaments to show off, or give them to their rich wives. I just want them to be in better condition."
"Brother, you are a sensible person." Golden Eyed Leopard said with a smile.
After that, the golden-eyed leopard looked at the black-faced man selling rough stones, and his smiling face suddenly turned into a cold face, and even became a little murderous.
Although he uses his mouth to bargain, his expression is as if he is holding a knife in his hand.
"Boss, how many spiritual stones does this rough stone in my hand have?" Golden Eyed Leopard raised his voice, and anyone within a hundred feet could hear clearly.
"Two hundred thousand low-grade spiritual stones." The black-faced man responded loudly.
"Tell me the selling price." The golden-eyed leopard said with his cold and ruthless eyes
The god looked closely into the other person's eyes.
"One hundred and fifty thousand." I don't know if he was intimidated by the golden-eyed leopard's voice, but the black-faced man's voice became softer.
"Tell me the selling price." Golden Eyed Leopard's tone dropped to freezing point.
"One hundred thousand, no, ninety thousand, no, seventy thousand low-grade spiritual stones." The black-faced man hesitated and bargained for himself.
"Don't you understand the selling price? Otherwise, even if you make a fortune today, you won't be able to get out of here. I, the Golden Eyed Leopard, am not only good at rough stones, but I am also a good hand at killing people and wiping their throats. This is not a business alliance. There are a lot of murders and robberies outside Fangshi." The golden-eyed leopard stretched his neck, covering the stone with one hand, and his sharp golden pupils seemed to have a knife out of its sheath.
"Three thousand, then three thousand low-grade spiritual stones. No more. If it's any less, my mother will beat me when I get back." The black-faced man looked aggrieved like a child.
The golden-eyed leopard held the stone in his arms and said skillfully: "I won't tell you if it's too much, and I won't let you know if it's too little."
"A thousand low-grade spiritual stones." Without waiting for the black-faced man to reply, Golden-Eyed Leopard slapped the table with one hand.
With a bang, the whole table was so frightened that rocks jumped, and he shouted: "Let it go! Deal!"
The black-faced man wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his hand and hesitated: "OK, deal."
The golden-eyed leopard turned to look at the big-eyed guy next to him, put on a smile and said, "Brother, are you satisfied with the price? A thousand low-grade spiritual stones, such a big piece."
The little brother with big eyes pinched his fingers to calculate, and muttered in his heart: "The big black guy asked for 200,000 low-grade spiritual stones, but this golden-eyed leopard actually bargained for a thousand low-grade spiritual stones. If I cut it myself If the price is too high, you will suffer a big loss.”
The big-eyed brother said: "Thank you, Brother Jin. I want this rough stone."
After saying that, the big-eyed brother took out eleven middle-grade spiritual stones from his arms and handed them over.
"A thousand low-grade spiritual stones are ten middle-grade spiritual stones, plus the 10% hard-earned fee that Brother Jin bargained for, a total of eleven medium-grade spiritual stones. Please keep them."
"Easy to say, easy to say." Golden Eyed Leopard took the eleven middle-grade spiritual stones, kept one for himself, and handed the remaining ten to the black-faced man.
The black-faced man took the spirit stone and verified it, then carefully put it away and murmured: "I really didn't earn the spirit stone."
"The first piece, just treat it as a leak." The golden-eyed leopard glared at the black-faced man.
The black-faced man felt as aggrieved as a little daughter-in-law and stopped talking.
Turning around, Golden Eyed Leopard smiled again and said, "Brother, do you want to cut it open and have a look? One cut will make you poor, and the other will make you rich."
"A thousand low-grade spiritual stones are not expensive, so just cut them open." The big-eyed brother nodded.
The golden-eyed leopard took out a fine iron saw and started cutting back and forth on the rough stone.
"You guys, old and young, who are passing by, give me a big boost." Golden Eyed Leopard said loudly.
The crowd watching on the sidelines was already ignited by this momentum, and they all wanted to see what was hidden in the stone.
Big rise. Big rise. Big rise.
The voices sounded in unison, like soldiers arrayed in front. In fact, they are just watching the show.
Xu Yangyin was silent behind the crowd, watching everything intently.
The big-eyed boy prayed a series of times in his heart: "Big rise, big rise. I want green jade to go back and give it to grandma as a birthday gift."
Is it rising?
Is it collapse?
Click!
The rough stone the size of a fist was cut in half.
The big-eyed guy's heart jumped suddenly as the original stone was cut open, and his big eyes stared closely at the cut stone.
The golden-eyed leopard picked up half of it, looked at it, then picked up the other half and looked at it, took a breath, and then said: "It's a pity that the water inside has not melted. Brother, you can see it for yourself. But still It’s worth a thousand low-grade spiritual stones, so it’s okay to make a small sculpture and play with it casually.”
The big-eyed boy took the stone and took a closer look. It was rough inside and had no jade luster. It was not natural at all.
What you want.
This is not a Burmese jade at all, it is just a worthless stone.
"Why don't you get another piece, a small one for a big one? Maybe the next piece will go up a lot. If you cut it into ten pieces and increase it by one piece, you will make back all the previous ones. Plus, I, the Golden Eyed Leopard, will bargain for you, so you won't suffer any loss. Yes." Golden Eyed Leopard said.
The big-eyed guy hesitated for a moment and said unwillingly: "Come again."
Bargain, deal, cut, worthless.
Bargain, deal, cut, worthless.
This was repeated many times.
...
After one stick of incense, there was only one uncut stone on the table.
And those who were cut were just a table of scrap stones.
The big-eyed boy picked up the storage bag in his hand, and the original heavyness turned into lightness.
He looked at the table of rotten stones that had been cut open, as if the stones were ugly smiling faces mocking his luck.
My heart felt like it had been cut open by a bad guy, and it was so cold. "It's a total of eighty high-grade spiritual stones. The total low-grade spiritual stones are eight hundred thousand, but I worked hard to save for more than two years to get them." Yes, it’s all gone now.”
"Brother, if you want to come again, maybe this last piece will rise sharply. As the saying goes, good food never worries about lateness, good stone is at the end. Changing fate against the will of God is always on the line of life and death." Golden-Eyed Leopard covered the money on the table The last stone said.
"How could my luck be so bad?" The big-eyed brother felt unwilling.
He turned over the storage bag containing his spirit stones. In the gap of the storage bag, a low-grade spirit stone shone brightly.
The big-eyed boy held the last low-grade spirit stone in his hand, and he saw the brilliance on the spirit stone.
Snapped!
The big-eyed boy slapped the last low-grade spirit stone on the table and said loudly: "Open the last piece for me."
The golden-eyed leopard's face turned cold. He grabbed the big-eyed brother's hand and neck and pushed the big-eyed brother's hand away from the table. "If you don't have a spiritual stone, go home and get it. This is not a place for children to play casually." place."
It seemed like a simple squeeze and push, but Golden Eyed Leopard's hand secretly added 80% of its strength. With his cultivation in the True Alchemy Realm, this kind of strength is enough to split a solid stone.
The big-eyed guy is only at the peak of the Peiyuan realm, which is still a big step behind the Golden-Eyed Leopard. Moreover, he didn't want to cause trouble or fight here. After all, when it comes to guessing stones, people are willing to accept defeat.
The big-eyed guy's wrist was so painful that he suddenly calmed down and cursed in his heart: "I've been fooled."
Hahaha.
Hahaha.
Hahaha.
Drawing laughter from the surrounding crowd.
A mute who eats Coptis chinensis cannot express his suffering.
The big-eyed guy rubbed his wrists, his eyes were blank, he wanted to cry, and he squeezed out of the crowd.
He seemed to have just had a dream, a nightmare in which the spiritual stone turned into broken stone. His body was as light and empty as the storage bag he used to hold the spirit stones. The only low-grade spiritual stone was tightly held in his hand, not wanting to lose any more.
"Brother Black, bring more stones tomorrow. Don't let us down. They must be of good quality and contain tens of thousands of spiritual stones. The price of this pile today is too low. If you do this, you will not only smash it Your own business has ruined the reputation of Jin-Eyed Leopard." Jin-Eyed Leopard yelled at the black-faced man selling the goods.
"Master Jin, please calm down. I'll go back and bring you the best stone." The black-faced man selling the goods said.
"Let's call it a day, it's just a stone, it's not worth opening. Dear young and old, if you want to try your luck, let's come back tomorrow night." Golden Eyed Leopard stood up and clasped his fists towards the crowd around him.
The crowd watching the excitement dispersed.
"I want the last stone."
The golden-eyed leopard heard the sound and looked over. The person speaking was a handsome young man in green clothes.
Without him, it was Xu Yang who spoke.
