Chapter 20 The Priceless Glass Cup

Five hundred glass marbles were sold as jewelry for 6,000 taels of silver. It is true that everything is associated with jewelry, and its value has doubled.

"Sir, as per your request, here are one hundred taels of silver notes from Liyuan Bank. These banknotes are valid in our Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces. In addition, here are two hundred taels of silver, all packed for you.

"

Li Chaosheng took the banknote and put it into his pocket. Li Chaosheng said directly to Li Chaomeng the two hundred taels of silver, "Mengzi, keep it for me and return it to me."

"Ah, yes."

Li Chaomeng looked at the money bag in his hand and felt his hands trembling. Two hundred taels of silver, how much is this? He has never seen so much money in his life, let alone this life. He has never seen so much money in his life.

Li Chaomeng looked at Li Chaosheng, and felt a little touched in his heart. If he had the money, he would definitely hide it as soon as possible. If he could throw the money directly to him like Li Chaosheng, this was his absolute trust in himself.

The master said: A scholar dies for his confidant. Brother Chaosheng is his confidant. He must protect Brother Chaosheng.

Li Chaosheng didn't know that this stupid big man had so many psychological changes. The main reason was that two hundred taels were indeed a bit heavy. One tael was fifty grams, ten taels and five hundred grams were one catty, and one hundred taels was five kilograms, which was ten catties.

Two hundred taels is twenty kilograms.

Twenty kilograms of silver lumps were not taken seriously by Li Chaomeng, who was extremely strong. He could hold them as easily as a child's sandbag. Li Chaosheng loaded the money, looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, I'm like this

There are also good things, why don’t you take a look?”

"Is there anything good left?"

The shopkeeper was surprised when he saw Li Chaosheng. Li Chaosheng nodded, then opened his wooden box again and took out a glass. As soon as the glass was taken out, the shopkeeper's eyes widened.

"This is?"

The shopkeeper's hands were trembling: "Let me see, let me see."

Li Chaosheng put it on the table casually, and the shopkeeper suddenly felt distressed: "Oh, please be gentle. If you break a corner, I won't even be able to stay with you in this store."

The shopkeeper felt extremely distressed. Li Chaosheng smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, isn't it just a cup for drinking water?"

"Drinking cup, my God, are you drinking gold?"

The shopkeeper looked at this completely transparent glass cup. This cup is the most common style on the Internet, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. The bottom is very thick and tall, and the overall shape is also very sturdy. It feels good when you pick it up. Li Chaosheng used it.

For those who drink milk, I think I paid 9.9 when I bought it, with free shipping.

"Good, good, crystal clear and flawless. Such a perfect glass cup is rare in the world. I dare not say anything else. I am afraid that such a perfect glass cup will not be found in the whole of Shaanxi, not even the entire Ming Dynasty. In this life,

If you can see such a thing, your life will not be in vain."

The shopkeeper stroked the glass cup tremblingly, not even bothering to control his expression. It took a long time before the shopkeeper calmed down and said, "It's really a priceless treasure."

Li Chaosheng looked at the shopkeeper and said, "It's a good thing. Let's set a price."

The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "I can't raise the price. I can't raise the price. I can't afford this thing."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng was embarrassed and couldn't afford it. Unexpectedly, Li Chaosheng originally thought that this glass cup could be sold for four to five thousand taels, but he miscalculated for a flawless glass cup.

impact on this era.

In the words of a shopkeeper, if you go to the palace, you probably won't find a glass cup that is exactly like this one. This thing is rare and valuable. Once something becomes unique, it is valuable, and once something becomes widespread,

This thing is no longer valuable.

Why are diamonds expensive? Why are glass cheap? Because there are less diamonds and more glass. If one were transferred, one carat of glass might be sold for tens of thousands, while a cup inlaid with diamonds would cost only a few yuan or dozens of yuan.

Of course, diamonds are so difficult to polish, so glass is the best place for them.

Just like the current synthetic moissanite, it is 99.9% similar to diamonds. Only its fire color is brighter and its hardness is slightly stronger than diamonds.

Just because of the large production, the wholesale price of moissanite is only tens or hundreds of yuan, while diamonds are tens of thousands.

"Ahem... Shopkeeper, I think you're a nice person. Whatever price you can offer at most, as long as it's not too much of a difference, I'll give it to you."

Li Chaosheng looked at the shopkeeper and said. After hearing this, the shopkeeper looked at Li Chaosheng and said: "If you really want to give it to me, I can tell you clearly that there is definitely a gap between what I have and what you have. You know

Once this thing of yours has been shipped, it can be used as tribute to the emperor, and it will be sold for a good price in the future. If you come to me again, I can't afford to pay for it."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng said: "Don't worry, although I am poor, I always keep my word and will never look for you."

After hearing this, the shopkeeper complained in his heart, you are still poor, and the things the good guy brought out are more and more scary. If you were poor, there would probably be no rich people in Lantian County.

The shopkeeper thought about it in his mind. He really liked this glass cup. Even if he took some risks for it, he should take some risks. Moreover, as long as he brought out some hard goods, the value of this glass should not be too far different. In the future, he would be like this.

People with status must be embarrassed to find themselves.

Thinking of this, the shopkeeper said: "Sir, wait a moment, I'm going to get a few things."

As soon as the shopkeeper left, Li Chaomeng came over and said, "Brother Chaosheng, this is your cup."

As he spoke, Li Chaomeng was about to touch it with his hand, but Li Dezhen on the side quickly stopped him: "Uncle Mengzi, please be merciful, this is a priceless treasure, and it will be damaged if you touch it with your fingers as thick as a rolling pin.

"

After hearing this, Li Chaomeng quickly put his hands behind his back. Li Chaosheng saw it and smiled and said: "It's okay, isn't it just a cup? Mengzi can look at it if he wants."

After hearing this, Li Chaomeng scratched his head and said, "Farewell, I know Brother Chaosheng is good to me, but if such an expensive thing is really broken, I can't compensate for it by killing it."

"Nonsense, you are my brother. This is just an ordinary glass cup. If it breaks, it will break. How can I really ask you to pay compensation? No amount of money can compensate my relatives, including you Mengzi.

If you have virtues and treasures, you are my most precious wealth."

"Brother Chaosheng."

"Uncle Chaosheng."

After hearing this, Li Chaomeng and brothers Dezhen Debao were deeply moved.

Li Chaosheng looked at the three of them sincerely at this time, without any pretense on his face. After all, compared with a nine-nine-dollar cup, a living person must be more valuable.

While we were talking here, the shopkeeper came back with a tray covered with red cloth.

Li Chaosheng looked at the shopkeeper at this time, and the shopkeeper said: "Sir, this thing of yours is too precious, I can't give you a valuation, but I also have two treasures that can be paid tribute. I will exchange them with you. What do you think?"

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Okay."

The shopkeeper carefully placed the things on the table.
