Ximen Hao felt excited and a little disappointed at the same time.
Judging from the other person's appearance, there is nothing curious about the statue.
The woman looked at it for a moment longer, and even fired a burst of spiritual power inside, but still shook her head:
"Unfortunately, this jade carving is just an ordinary jade carving, not a spiritual carving. Master, where did you buy it? Have you been deceived?"
"An ordinary jade carving..."
Ximen Hao looked disappointed. He didn't expect that the treasure he was looking forward to most turned out to be just an ordinary thing.
"Yes, it should be an ordinary jade carving. Of course, maybe there is something special about it that I can't see. It's just that the boss is out, otherwise you can ask her to show it to you."
The woman didn't want to hit Ximen Hao, so she comforted him.
Ximen Hao suddenly felt a glimmer of hope and asked eagerly:
"Girl, when will your boss come back?"
The woman shook her head and returned the jade sculpture to Ximen Hao.
"I don't know about this. The boss has been away for three days. This time she is taking her servants to find some materials to complete customized carvings. If you hurry up, maybe you can come back today. How about this, how many days do you have it?
How about the return of heaven? The boss is very knowledgeable about spiritual sculptures, so he can definitely see the clues."
Ximen Hao nodded, as long as there is hope.
"Well, I'll come back in a few days."
Ximen Hao put away the jade sculpture, then gave the woman a fist and turned around to leave.
The woman watched Ximen Hao leave, then continued to wipe the statue with a piece of cotton cloth.
But at this moment, a man and a woman suddenly appeared at the door.
The woman was unrivaled in beauty, dressed in white, and holding a civet cat in her arms, or rather a jade cat carved from white jade!
The jade cat was carved just like the real thing, and its eyes were as lively as if they were alive.
The woman also gently stroked the jade cat, as if stroking a living creature.
Behind him, stood a muscular man. Judging from his position and appearance, he should be a follower of the woman.
But the man's eyes were looking at the street, looking at the back of a man, and he felt a little familiar.
"Ah! Boss, you are back!"
The woman who was cleaning the statue hurriedly came over to greet him.
"Xiao Lian, is that person a regular customer just now? Why does the smell feel familiar?"
The beautiful woman also turned her head and glanced at the street. The smell was very familiar, as if she had seen it before somewhere.
But she is open to do business and comes into contact with many people.
"Boss, I've never seen that young man before. He just brought an ordinary jade sculpture over. He probably wanted to sell it. By the way, looking at his appearance, the jade sculpture was not an ordinary thing, but I couldn't tell. I told him to let him pass.
Come back in a few days, how about I call him?"
Xiao Lian said, pretending to chase him out.
"Forget it, I'm tired, let's talk about it later."
The woman walked in with the jade cat in her arms, but she still frowned and glanced at the man's back.
"Hmph! Why are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and collect the materials you just found?"
The woman suddenly turned her head and gave instructions to the dazed man.
The man who was still distracted suddenly became excited and quickly bowed respectfully:
"Yes, Master."
Then he hurriedly walked inside.
"Brother Jue, how was your harvest this time?"
Xiao Lian came up to him and seemed to have a good relationship with the man.
As the man walked, he said:
"The harvest is good, I found some top-quality spiritual tree roots. By the way, Xiao Lian, is that person really here to sell jade carvings?"
"Yes! What's wrong? You and eldest sister seem to care about it very much."
"Oh, it's nothing. By the way, do you know his name?"
"I don't know, he didn't say, but he will come in a few days..."
The two of them chatted and walked into the back hall of the store.
The beautiful woman stood at the door and looked in the direction of the exit of Fangshi. The man had disappeared into the vast sea of people.
"It's really familiar. I must have seen it before, a little bit..."
"Meow!"
Perhaps the woman was a little excited, and the jade cat in her arms suddenly meowed, as if it was alive!
…
Ximen Hao left Fangshi and returned to the inn. Sanfeng hadn't come back yet, so he ordered some food and settled his food and clothing first.
But just when he had just eaten and drank enough and was about to go out again to find out about the disappearance of the Mass Burial Mountain, Sanfeng appeared in front of him happily.
"Hahaha! Bro! Good news! I found a job!"
Sanfeng picked up the spirit tea on the table and took a big sip, and then continued to say to Ximen Hao:
"Brother! What job did you get for me?"
As he said that, he glanced at Xixi.
"What job?"
Ximen Hao actually didn't want Sanfeng to leave, but seeing the other party's appearance, he held back.
"Hehe! The Kong family's pasture needs a grazer! And it also raises spiritual cattle! The first year's spiritual stone is 500 yuan! I'll see if the salary will increase in the future! The most important thing is to take care of food and housing! The salary is not enough for food and housing.
There’s a lot! Of course, there’s another convenience to this job, that is, our eldest niece will have plenty to drink from it! It’ll still be fresh!”
As Sanfeng said, he reached out to touch his small face, but the other party dodged it, and his palm stopped awkwardly in the air.
"Damn! Is this just a job? Only five hundred? I...I'm speechless."
Ximen Hao really didn’t know what to say.
The supreme being in the space below the hall can only be a herdsman in Lingxu.
Moreover, the annual spiritual stone is only 500 low-grade spiritual stones, but it is indeed like what the other party said, taking care of food, food and housing is more affordable than salary!
but……
"Ahem, brother, you don't know how hard it is to find a job now! I learned some knowledge about raising spiritual animals when I was working down there, so that's why I was admitted. And the salary will increase in the future. Now it's mainly because of the
Even if we have a place to stay, it’s still the Kong family’s property.”
The joy on Sanfeng's face disappeared, leaving only deep helplessness.
He had never been so embarrassed, and he never expected to go back to Lingxu and work as a shepherd boy.
This is really like what the old man said, Lingxu can very well temper their minds.
So, face reality! Otherwise, let alone cultivation, you won’t be able to eat.
"..."
Ximen Hao was silent. Although he was in a much better situation than Sanfeng, he was still like a rootless duckweed with no goal and no place to stay.
"Man! Two jugs of good wine! Some good dishes! So delicious!"
He suddenly shouted to the waiter.
"Hello, sir! Please wait a moment!"
The waiter hurriedly went to get wine and stir-fry, while Ximen Hao took out ten middle-grade spiritual stones and placed them on the table.
"Brother Sanfeng, since we have just met, I don't have anything to give you. You can take these spiritual stones. Also, I can afford to support Xixi myself, so you don't want to steal Nv Nai."
Ximen Hao knew Sanfeng's previous intentions and also understood why the other party liked this job very much. He wanted to return some favors to himself.
"Ah? This..."
Sanfeng looked at the ten middle-grade spiritual stones on the table. This was his two years' salary!
Moreover, since coming up, I have always eaten and lived in each other's possessions, but now I have to take them... (To be continued)
