Chapter nine hundred and seventy-seven, also cause and effect
In Yuling Pavilion, Chang Jiuyun and others were a little anxious.
This is a shop with quite a background, and it is said that there are several high-ranking officials behind it. Although Chang Jiuyun and the third shopkeeper are considered acquaintances, their relationship is actually not that good.
When he came to Yuling Pavilion, he very carefully asked the third shopkeeper to disperse the surrounding waiters before he would take out the spiritual crystal.
However, the third shopkeeper insisted that he would do a thorough research before he would give a price, and then went to the back room.
This Yuling Pavilion is actually a shop in the mortal world.
Where have I ever seen such a good thing.
Naturally, we need to study it carefully.
Chang Jiuyun waited left and right, and his heart became more and more itchy.
Why hasn't it healed yet?
Finally, after a long time, the third shopkeeper led a large group of people and hurried from the back pavilion: "Little devil, where did you get this spiritual pearl?"
"Of course I picked it up," Chang Jiuyun said naturally.
The third shopkeeper's face was full of urgency: "Where did you pick up such a good thing?"
"Are you going to take care of this too?"
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me quickly!" some of the thugs around the third shopkeeper yelled viciously.
Chang Jiuyun was startled.
These thugs didn't attack lightly or harshly.
It is common to kill a few troublemakers.
"Of course I picked it up in Yulongyuan." Chang Jiuyun said.
Everyone took a breath of cold air.
Good guy, how dare this kid enter Yulongyuan? At that time, the immortals fought with each other and the thunder came to the world, which shocked the world. Even now, there is still a terrifying aura left.
Yulongyuan has become a completely dangerous place.
Although there are some brave scavengers who want to go in to find things, they find that Yulongyuan has been sealed off. Immortals have cast magic to isolate the inside and outside, making it impossible for mortals to enter.
Yulongyuan suddenly became mysterious and unpredictable in the hearts of mortals.
No one expected that a scavenger had gone in and brought out treasures.
"Do you still have gems like this? I want as many as you have!" the third shopkeeper said immediately.
Chang Jiuyun shook his head: "Just this one."
"Really? Boy, don't fool me, I take care of you like this."
"But I really don't have it anymore. Do you want to keep this treasure? If not, give it back to me!"
The third shopkeeper immediately said: "Of course I'll take it, of course I'll take it. I'll give you eight hundred taels of silver for one spiritual bead. If you have a second one, I'll pay double the price, one thousand and sixty taels!"
Obviously he saw the value of this kind of beads.
Chang Jiuyun was immediately dissatisfied: "Third shopkeeper, you are bullying me, don't you know? Although eight hundred taels is already a lot for me, it is something from an immortal, and it is so complete. You only want to give out eight hundred taels."
receive?"
"What do you know? This is the normal price." The third shopkeeper insisted.
"Then I won't sell it anymore and give me back the treasure!"
"Not selling?" The third shopkeeper frowned.
Several thugs gathered around quietly.
Chang Jiuyun saw that the situation was not good, and he realized that all the customers in Yuling Pavilion had left at some point, and he was the only "outsider" in the entire store.
"Wait, I changed my mind." Chang Jiuyun gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, okay, I admit that I have other gems!"
The third shopkeeper beamed with joy: "Seriously?"
"Of course it's true, but the price you gave is too low."
"How many do you want?"
"At least eight thousand taels."
"How many do you have?"
"Including this one, there are three in total. The three are of the same quality. They are definitely top-grade. Putting them together will definitely sell for a sky-high price." Chang Jiuyun said: "I can go back and get it now."
The third shopkeeper thought for a while and agreed directly: "Okay."
It’s only eight thousand taels.
It's all small money.
This spirit bead is not simple, its absolute value far exceeds.
No matter what, he will definitely make money.
"I can keep this treasure with you, and you don't have to worry about me escaping, but I'm also afraid that you will swallow my orb, so you have to give me some guarantee so that I can feel at ease." Chang Jiuyun said righteously.
The third shopkeeper thought for a while: "What do you want?"
"My spirit bead is worth a lot of money, so you have to give me something good as a guarantee. So, give me that piece of red jadeite."
Of course red emerald is also a good thing.
It's worth at least two thousand taels of silver.
However, the third shopkeeper slightly compared the two values and did not object: "Okay, it's up to you!"
The red jadeite is far less likely to be as dangerous as that spiritual thing.
After that, the third shopkeeper took the red jade stone and handed it to Chang Jiuyun.
Chang Jiuyun hurriedly put away the red jade gem: "Then I will go back and get the other two treasures. You must not default on the payment or swallow my treasures."
"I, Yuling Pavilion, am an innocent child, how could I do such a thing?" the third shopkeeper said subconsciously.
Chang Jiuyun scolded him for being shameless in his heart, but he didn't stop at all. He got the red jade gem and ran away.
"The third shopkeeper is so wise. You exchanged a small eight thousand taels for three immortal spiritual stones. If the boss finds out, you will definitely be promoted to the top shopkeeper." A waiter hurriedly flattered me.
The third shopkeeper smiled proudly: "Do I need to say that I have good eyesight? I knew at a glance that this was an immortal spiritual stone. It is absolutely priceless for us mortals. Moreover, the master of the country is seeking this thing wantonly. It is inevitable.
It's a good thing. This kid is really lucky, he actually picked up three spiritual stones."
He only thought that the spiritual crystal was an ordinary spiritual stone, but he did not know that his greed had already caused great disaster.
"Wait a minute." Just as the waiter was praising him, the third shopkeeper suddenly felt something bad.
The waiter asked: "What happened to the third shopkeeper?"
"Although this spiritual stone is precious, I only paid eight hundred taels for one, but now I'm using a red jade gem worth two thousand taels as a guarantee. Isn't it wrong?"
He finally realized something was wrong.
Have you been fooled?
If that boy doesn't have the spirit stone, wouldn't he lose a red emerald gem?
He is indeed a profiteer.
You can't see where you are making big profits at all, and you can only notice the small losses you may make.
"Come on, catch up with that kid. Don't let him escape." The third shopkeeper slammed the table and shouted at the top of his lungs.
In the stable, the white horse jumped out, picked up the luggage very skillfully and prepared to run away. It was a perfect tacit understanding.
Lin Xi stopped Chang Jiuyun in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"Oh, I almost forgot about you, Lin Xi, come with me quickly."
"What happened? Where is the thing I gave you?"
Chang Jiuyun shook the pure red jade gem in his hand: "Instead of this thing, if we sell gems in another place, we will definitely make a fortune."
Lin Xi couldn't help but laugh and cry.
I give you a priceless spiritual crystal, and you get back an ordinary gemstone?
"What happened?" Lin Xi asked again.
Chang Jiuyun had no choice but to quickly tell what happened, with a look of pride on his face: "But it was already very profitable. I not only ran away but also defrauded a gem."
If it weren't for the fact that wisdom arises out of haste.
Chang Jiuyun not only does not get any money.
I'm afraid I might even lose my life.
Now it is indeed the best outcome for him.
The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade.
Chang Jiuyun is just a powerless orphan boy, and giving him treasures can only harm him.
Lin Xi couldn't help but have some enlightenment in her heart.
