I said we divided the money for Ashoka Pagoda last time. We gave you dozens of dollars. Did you spend all the money? What did you buy?
"I think I just saw you buy a mobile phone."
Xiaoxuan hesitated for a long time. One moment she said she had bought jewelry, and the next moment she said she had lent it to a friend in Hong Kong. The two were inconsistent.
So I asked again about the jewelry you bought. Let me take a look at the jewelry and help you see if it has been cheated.
When I pressed her, Xiaoxuan actually went back to her room and took out a small jewelry box. She looked a little guilty and handed the jewelry box to me.
The jewelry box is not big, only three to four centimeters long. It cannot be used to hold large items such as bracelets. At most, it can be used to hold small items such as earrings and pendants.
Girls are naturally fond of these things. I thought that even if the things she bought were a little bad, I would not tell her about them and would still praise them for being good and beautiful.
When I opened the jewelry box and saw what was inside, I was stunned.
"What... is this thing? Jade?"
In the jewelry box is a jade pendant, a man wearing a Guanyin and a woman wearing a Buddha. The carving theme is an ordinary Maitreya Buddha with a big belly. The size is a little bigger than a fingernail. The carving of this jadeite Maitreya Buddha is average, and the color is dark and almost no longer green.
Maitreya Buddha's belly looked dusty. This thing was at best a bean seed in the jadeite, not even a waxy seed.
I asked with a trembling voice: "You...when did you buy it and how much did you spend?"
Xiaoxuan lowered her head, not daring to look at me, and hummed like a mosquito talking.
"I didn't hear you clearly. How much did you say?" I asked.
Then her voice became louder and hesitantly said: "Fifty...five hundred and fifty thousand."
"You prodigal old man...!" I almost cursed!
Broken oil green, bean seed bottom, no color, the carver is still an apprentice!
Just this jadeite big-bellied Buddha, I would say, it doesn’t cost more than 500 yuan!
She went behind my back and secretly bought this without consulting me! Isn't she stupid? Isn't she a tiger?
I was so angry that I rubbed my face so hard that I almost bruised my face!
Taking a deep breath, I looked at Xiaoxuan who didn't dare to look up at me and said, "Congratulations, you made a big profit. The purchase price of this jadeite was no more than 100 yuan. You lost 549,000 yuan. Well done."
Although this is Xiaoxuan's own money and I shouldn't say anything more, I know that this money is hard-earned. We all took a lot of risks. Once we are caught, it will be over. To put it bluntly, we will pay for it with our own lives.
of.
How could I not be angry.
Buying this kind of thing involves art transactions, and the police don't care about it. They can't find anything. I can think of it. Even if I ask her where she bought it and go to her with the thing, she won't admit it at all. Maybe even people will not admit it.
Not found!
The more I thought about it, the angrier I became. I couldn't help but scolded her a few times. Maybe my words were too harsh.
With red eyes, Xiaoxuan grabbed the big-bellied Buddha from my hand, ran back to her room, and closed the door heavily.
After she left, I was the only one left in the room.
I sat on the sofa and rubbed my temples, feeling a little headache.
Xiaoxuan spent all the money she had saved, leaving only 50,000 yuan. Douyazai saved the most, but like Pixiu, he could only make a dime. I usually paid for meals and taxis, not to mention that he had no money at all.
Don't believe in those superstitious things.
After thinking about it, I decided to go talk to Chickenfoot Woman alone. Superstition is superstitious. If we can talk about about 100,000 yuan for three people, then I will pay the money alone. If it is more, forget it.
In this business, you should spend money to buy peace of mind, otherwise you will feel uncomfortable when you think about it in the future.
I went directly to the live poultry market alone, but the Chicken Feet Lady was not there, but all the chicken cages in her stall were there. Her daughter helped look after the stall. I heard people around me calling her daughter Chicken Feet Lady.
The chick-footed lady is not as ugly as her mother. She looks a few years older than me. She has very fair skin and a good figure. However, her hairstyle is too detracting. She had a big curl and dyed it red, and the corners of her mouth and ears were dyed red.
With silver earrings on her top, she looks like a killer little girl.
"My mother is not here, I don't know where she went," she said.
Because I didn’t know her name, I saw people around me calling her that, so I called her that too.
I said, Little Chicken Feet, when your mother comes back, ask her to find me on the second floor of Sanyou Hotel. I said I still want to talk, and you ask her if she can come.
"What?"
"What did you call me just now?"
The girl suddenly stood up, pointed at me angrily and scolded me, without any girlish image: "Hey, boy, did you just call me a chicken-footed woman? Try calling me a little bit louder!"
After saying that, she suddenly took out a switchblade from her trouser pocket, flicked it, and the blade popped out handsomely.
She pointed the knife at me: "Which school are you from? You don't know who I am? Are you looking for trouble?"
"If you dare to call me that, I'll make you believe it or not."
