Chapter 36 This jade pendant, I received ten thousand
When the tea was seven minutes full, Yi Chuanzong picked it up, sniffed it gently, and said with a smile: "The shopkeeper has some skills. Your Yuqian Longjing is much better than what I drank in the teahouse."
The shopkeeper smiled slightly and said, "We are all old friends on weekdays. If it were me, I wouldn't be willing to drink it."
Yi Chuanzong nodded lightly, "After drinking too much, you will always be able to tell the difference."
While he was calm, the shopkeeper kept suppressing his curiosity, "Brother Yi, what kind of treasure did you bring this time? I want to see it."
Yi Chuanzong stopped pretending and directly reached out and picked it up from his arms.
He likes to do things more cheerfully, but if he is cheerful with the person in front of him, he will be cheated, so he can only use some tricks.
Soon, Yi Chuanzong took out his hand from his arms, and a red rope emerged from between his fingers. Under the curious eyes of the shopkeeper, he slowly stretched out his hand.
In the center of his ruddy palm lay a piece of pure white jade pendant six to seven centimeters long and about four centimeters wide. The jade pendant was crystal clear as a whole, with a watery surface like grease and a slight white glow, and on it was an inscription
Holding an obscure and indistinguishable Pixiu.
Yi Chuanzong looked at the jade pendant in his hand with warm eyes. He knew it was a treasure before, because the material of this jade pendant was the same as Lou Xiao'e's family heirloom bracelet. When the two were put together, this jade pendant was even brighter.
He didn't know which one was better, but with his current stone carving skills, he had to admit that this Pixiu jade pendant was perfectly carved. It was obvious that this jade pendant was made by a famous craftsman.
The shopkeeper over there was completely stunned. He whispered in his mouth, and then couldn't help but want to reach out and take it.
"Um?"
Yi Chuanzong frowned and snorted, then directly picked up the jade pendant.
This time, the guy who stretched his neck to look at it also quickly covered his mouth with his hands. He looked at Yi Chuanzong in shock. He really couldn't see this thing, but if it were real, the price would be sky-high.
Went.
Yi Chuanzong was not surprised by the expressions of the two people. If this was true, it would be a treasure, and it would no longer be calculated based on how much money it cost.
Lou Xiao'e casually took out millions to invest in restaurants, and her own assets must be more. The price of this family heirloom will only be higher, maybe ten times, or a hundred times, but it cannot be exchanged for it. Ten million or hundreds of millions in seven or eight years can be described as priceless.
Not an exaggeration at all.
The shopkeeper took back his hand a little sarcastically and apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I was really shocked. I didn't expect to see such a treasure today."
Yi Chuanzong nodded silently, but did not spread his hands. The store owner and the waiter had to calm down.
This Pixiu jade pendant is very particular. He usually takes it off when he and his two wives are playing together. This Pixiu jade pendant cannot be touched by others, and you have to be careful when touching it yourself. Now the shopkeeper's actions are too reckless.
After a moment of silence, the shopkeeper spoke directly, "Although I looked at it twice just now, it's hard to tell whether it's true or not. Can you let me take another look?"
Yi Chuanzong nodded slowly, and then spread his palms again.
This time the store manager was no longer reckless, but stretched his neck and looked at the jade pendant at a distance of twenty miles, and did not look from the top of the jade pendant, which is also taboo.
After studying for about ten minutes, the store manager basically concluded that this was true, but he wanted to make sure again, "Brother Yi, can you straighten the jade pendant?"
Yi Chuanzong nodded, opened the jade pendant with his palm, and turned over.
The shopkeeper watched again for a while. He slowly sat up straight with a much more reserved expression on his face. After pondering for a few minutes, he said in a deep voice: "I'll take this jade pendant for ten thousand!"
He couldn't give it any lower. Yi Chuanzong's reaction before made it clear that he knew it was genuine. The small yellow croakers sold for two thousand yuan a year ago would not be sold if the price was lower.
Yi Chuanzong rolled his eyes. This was given to him by Sister Hua to keep him safe. How could he sell it? He wouldn't change it for any money.
"Shopkeeper, this is no longer interesting. As I said before, I'm just here to roughly estimate the price. I don't want to sell it. Let's talk business."
Saying that, Yi Chuanzong directly put the Pixiu Jade Pendant into his arms and put it in his portable space as he thought.
He usually doesn't carry this thing so carefully. If it gets damaged by a bump, it will be very distressing.
The shopkeeper obviously didn't believe it. He felt that Yi Chuanzong's price was low, so without any hesitation, the shopkeeper's voice was heavy and powerful, "Twenty thousand!"
Yi Chuanzong raised his eyebrows. With this attitude, he felt that there was no need to come here to do the valuation. Even for takeout now, it would cost at least 200,000 yuan, if anyone could afford it.
"Stop making trouble. I already said I won't sell it. This time I'm here to sell it."
As Yi Chuanzong spoke, he reached into his arms again and took out two small yellow croakers.
The guy at the back, Xiao Chen, swallowed hard when he saw it. There was actually a little goldfish?
What does this person do at home? It is a jade pendant made of Hotan mutton-fat jade. Judging from the attitude of the shopkeeper, I am afraid that this jade pendant is not just a matter of material and appearance. This thing has an origin!
The shopkeeper was much calmer. He just glanced at the two small yellow croakers next to him, and then looked away directly. He said calmly: "The current market price of gold is nineteen ninety-three cents."
, I can charge it at 20 yuan and 40 cents per gram, this should be enough for my friends, right?"
Yi Chuanzong raised his eyebrows, "Yes, there's no need to negotiate the price."
He raised his hand and motioned with his eyes to the waiter to come over here and get it.
The shopkeeper reached out and took the two small yellow croakers in his hands. When he saw the 993 mark, he said calmly: "The purity is 993, so there is no need to measure it. I think there will be no problem with Brother Yi's things.
"
Yi Chuanzong shook his head and smiled, and said: "Let's test it. It should be as much as it should be. These two pieces should be kept for a longer time. If there are any bumps, they may be missing."
There was definitely no problem with the previous weighing. One tael was the standard 31.25 grams, but over time it became no longer certain.
The waiter didn't listen to him, but looked at the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper didn't insist anymore, but handed over the two small yellow croakers in his hand.
After waiting for the waiter to leave, the shopkeeper spoke again. His voice was heavy and hoarse, "I know you like to have fun. I will give you up to thirty thousand yuan for your jade pendant. Thirty thousand yuan, forty-nine yuan."
There is absolutely no one in the city who bids higher than me. If you don’t believe me, you can just ask.”
"Although this thing is real, there is still a lot of risk in holding it in your hands. It is estimated that you will not be able to find a buyer for this price in a short time. At my age, I am willing to take a gamble."
Yi Chuanzong lowered his eyes. He could see the other party's attitude. He was really buying it. Thirty thousand yuan to buy a jade pendant. Even if his uncle had maintained a salary of ninety-nine a month, it would have taken him twenty-five years. This man
He is really bold, and this jewelry industry is really profitable.
"You see me more accurately than I see you, so you should know that I won't sell it. It's not a matter of price."
The shopkeeper frowned and stared at Yi Chuanzong closely. After staring at each other for ten seconds, he slowly leaned back on the chair behind him, then sighed heavily, feeling endless regret in his heart.
Yi Chuanzong took a sip of tea quietly. He was just curious, so he came over to ask.
If he was so poor that he couldn't even eat, and his wife and children would have to be taken care of, he would still discuss selling it with Sister Hua. After all, this thing is a dead thing no matter how it is, and it doesn't matter who lives happily.
?
After Yi Chuanzong refused, the two said nothing more.
The originally cunning and talkative shopkeeper, after confirming that Yi Chuanzong would not be sold, his disappointment showed on his face, and he had no reaction even when the waiter came over.
"Shopkeeper, guest, this small yellow croaker has a weight standard and a purity of 993."
Yi Chuanzong chuckled and said, "Shopkeeper, I'm going to sell this little yellow croaker."
The shopkeeper raised his arm and waved to the waiter, "Twenty yuan and four cents, Xiao Chen, you do the math."
"Ah? I'll do the math?"
Xiao Chen was extremely surprised. What the shopkeeper usually hates most is for others to touch his abacus. Even when he is sick, he always insists on settling the accounts by himself. Now he is asked to touch the abacus?
The shopkeeper nodded solemnly, "Yes, you do the math, be careful, don't let Brother Yi make a mistake."
Xiao Chen was in a very complicated mood. This was his first time settling accounts. Should he be in charge of the store's business in the future? Then he walked to the counter to get the abacus.
At this time, the store manager raised his head and looked at Yi Chuanzong, and asked again reluctantly: "Brother Yi, are you really not going to sell that jade pendant?"
Yi Chuanzong nodded calmly, "I really won't sell it, as I said before."
The shopkeeper nodded slightly and said reluctantly: "Then if you want to sell it in the future, I can give you the highest price."
Yi Chuanzong still shook his head calmly.
The two of them were quiet again. Only Xiao Chen, who came back with an abacus, tapped the abacus. After calculating twice, Xiao Chen raised his head and said: "Mr. Yi, the total number of small yellow croakers in Jiujiu San is one thousand two hundred."
Sixty-six and seven points.”
Yi Chuanzong nodded slightly and looked at the shopkeeper, "It's still the same old rule, you don't have to give me the change, just give me the whole thing."
"The price is correct, I'll issue a receipt."
After saying that, the shopkeeper stood up weakly, and then walked slowly towards the counter.
After counting the amount, the shopkeeper placed the money heavily in Yi Chuanzong's hand along with the receipts. The unwillingness in his eyes seemed to overflow. I usually do business with one, this time it was at least ten thousand, one time
If you don't open it, you will eat it for the rest of your life.
Yi Chuanzong didn't have so many ideas. He took the money and counted both sides. After confirming that it was correct, he handed over to the shopkeeper and said, "This transaction is fully paid. We will meet again in the future if we have the opportunity."
After saying that, he strode out of the door.
The shopkeeper stood at the back and hesitated to speak. When this man came here for the first time, he looked down upon him. He made forty yuan less that time. Although he didn't make much, business is like this. There are people who make more.
There will be times when he makes less money, and he can accept it in his heart.
When the man came the second time, he took the knife and prepared to slaughter, and explained enthusiastically. As a result, the little girl the man brought was really powerful, and she had extraordinary knowledge at such a young age, so she chopped off a big one for him.
Diving, don’t buy it after cutting it.
This third time, he didn't want to see it at first, but he didn't want to sell it after he was so interested in it! The sky-high price of 30,000 yuan, there are few people in Sijiu City who can afford so much money, but this person didn't want to sell it.
Sell!
He now wanted to see this person again and thought about acquiring those treasures, but he was really frightened. Ever since he met this person, he had never felt happy in his heart.
Yi Chuanzong's mood is just the opposite. His mood now can only be described in two words: arrogant!
With one thousand yuan in his pocket, even he has to work for a year now, compared to three years for someone like the third uncle!
With so much money on his side, he doesn't have to worry about spending it in a short period of time. There are no messy luxuries, and no one will induce him to buy. He guarantees that every penny spent will be happy.
May 8th.
This day is a good time to move. It is a good day to decorate, move, move into a house, set up a bed, and travel.
As the two firecrackers crackled, the move was finally over.
In order to increase the popularity of his new home, Yi Chuanzong chose to ask Shazhu to come over to help. He also asked a cook to come over. Naturally, he had nothing else to do but cook.
A big pot of food was cooked, and the whole yard, men, women, old and young, came to join in the fun.
Of course, this dish is not as open as it was during the wedding. It is stir-fried cabbage and lettuce. There is some meat and four eggs in a big pot. It has a little bit of flavor. Who can eat the meat and who can eat the eggs depends entirely on luck.
Already.
Standing in the yard, the chattering aunts became inexplicably quieter, and even some children stopped jumping around so much. The originally pure white marble carvings seemed to be coated with a layer of glue on the ground, making everyone's
His movements were much more restrained.
Qin Huairu looked around, and then whispered to Lou Xiao'e: "Your house is so beautifully decorated. Didn't you say that it looked like the whole house was going to be demolished? You also said that the tiles on the roof were
It’s all been torn down, and the floor of the yard looks like it’s been plowed?”
Lou Xiao'e's face was slightly red. It was indeed like that at first, but who would have thought that she would become so beautiful in the blink of an eye after being angry for three days?
At this time, the second uncle was also looking at the shelf with his little eyes, looking to see if he could not see enough here or there, "Zhuanzong, I heard that this floor was carved by You? Do you still have this skill?"
Yi Chuanzong laughed, "I was just painting casually. I didn't expect that it would look pretty good when I drew it. It felt similar to working in a factory, so I simply bought some more slates. I didn't expect that the decoration effect would be pretty good?"
The second uncle opened his mouth wide and didn't know what to say. These words sounded quite modest, but he felt even worse in his heart.
"Not bad! More than good!"
The third uncle walked around and found everything beautiful. He praised directly: "Part of our palace is open to the public. Not to mention your small courtyard, the ground and the flower bed over there are even more beautiful."
Everything in the palace is strong."
Yi Chuanzong smiled and shook his head. How big is the palace, how big is his yard?
Other stone carvers, even those who have reached the peak of their skills, work slowly and have limited physical strength.
This white marble alone is not that easy to mine. For ordinary ground, bluestone will suffice.
In fact, he originally did not want to lay wooden floors in the house. When he was inquiring about decoration, he saw some "gold bricks" on the market that had been eliminated from the palace hall.
This 'gold brick' is said to be a gold brick, but in fact it is not a gold brick. It is a black ceramic plate with a shiny surface baked with special soil. It is just a square brick in appearance. The process is complicated and the cost is expensive, so it is called
For gold bricks.
He took two samples and looked at them. They looked like pure black stone floors from later generations. The ones that were eliminated were not in good condition. For a person with a little obsessive-compulsive disorder, there were cracks on the ground.
, missing a corner or something like that is too uncomfortable. Besides, he also has stone carving skills, which makes it even more uncomfortable to look at.
The most important thing is that he is going to have a child. Even a stupid wife like Lou Xiaoe has two sons! It is not uncommon for the child to fall off the bed. For the safety of the child, wooden floors must be chosen.
Besides, he had heard of this gold brick in his previous life. At that time, it seemed to cost hundreds of thousands a piece. The price he asked now was only a few yuan a piece. He can afford it now. When he wants to buy it in the future, he will definitely have it.
It's more of a gimmick.
A group of people praised each other in the courtyard, and the two uncles were amazed after entering the house. The most representative people in the courtyard were the three uncles, and these three had to stay for dinner.
Yi Chuanzong was particularly satisfied with the fireplace. It looked stylish and stylish, with a touch of Lao Mo's interior. When paired with the black walnut wood floor, it was unexpectedly harmonious.
He lit a fire inside the house. The chimney installed by Master Hong was still very good. After lighting it, there was no smoke at all in the room. The orange flame danced in the fireplace, making the original house a bit more wild and mysterious.
