The winter is long and the night is long, when Ji Shenyu woke up, the sky was still dark, and the room was also dark. Maybe because he vomited twice, he was weak even breathing, not as strong as the strong heartbeat beside his ears.
Only then did he realize that he had left his original bed long ago, and was now hiding in Ding Hanbai's arms. The other party hugged him in an encircling posture, with their chests pressed against each other and their legs intertwined. He couldn't break free, and called out "Senior Brother" weakly.
This brother can sleep very well, and it took a long time for him to answer in a daze.
"It's still early." Ding Hanbai's voice was hoarse, and he moved his arms to hug Ji Shenyu tighter. The other side's cool nose touched the edge of his cheek, it was a little itchy, so he smiled, closing his eyes and laughing off his sleepiness.
The lamp was turned on, and he lowered his eyes: "Why are you calling me?"
Ji Shenyu raised his eyes and said, "I'm sorry that I fell into your bed."
Ding Hanbai said, "It doesn't matter." He pretended to be generous, not ready to admit that he was pulling the other party into his arms, and he didn't let go after he finished speaking.
Ji Shenyu was not without surprise in his heart. He didn't expect Ding Hanbai to give him a good face when he came last night, but he was more able to accept Ding Hanbai's dislike than Ding Erhe's dislike. Unexpectedly, Ding Hanbai took him into the room, gave him water, and fed him candy. At this time, he approached and hugged him, but he didn't even hate him at all.
"Master?" he asked, "what's the matter with you?"
Ding Hanbai was quite puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Ji Shenyu didn't know how to say: "Why do you look like a good person."
Ding Hanbai almost turned his back: "Otherwise, I'm really a bastard?! Since I was a child, I collected money without ignorance, I was selfless, and I paid money when I was rich... You are a white-eyed wolf."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Shenyu lowered his head to rub him, and rubbed him subjectively and gently with the hair on his forehead. He doesn't like cats and dogs, but he's seen how kittens and puppies act coquettishly to please him, and he doesn't know how to respond.
And Ji Shenyu expressed intimacy with her body, just because she couldn't say thank you face to face. Every inch of the sky was bright, he looked back, saw the world of ice and snow outside the window, and wanted to pounce and look hard.
Ding Hanbai controlled him: "I got off last night, didn't you see it?"
Ji Shen said slowly, "I saw it." But he was paying attention to Ding Hanbai and Uno Min, but he didn't pay attention to how big the surprise snow was. He turned back and asked, "Senior brother, does Boss Wu's daughter like you?"
He saw that Uno Min was not very enthusiastic about others, so he asked this question.
Ding Han Bai smirked: "Obviously yes, a girl can't hide her heart."
Ji Shen stammered: "It's not good." He didn't think it was good, but he didn't know what was wrong and why? "That, Sister Xiaomin..." Suddenly, he suddenly said, "You and Sister Xiaomin, do you like girls called Min so much?"
Ding Hanbai said, "Nuomin means jasper in Mongolian. She is jasper, and I am white jade. Do you think she is worthy?"
Ji Shenyu had no way to refute, it was quite a match, and when he met Ding Hanbai's eyes, the meaning in his eyes was so delightful, it seemed that the two were so happy. He suddenly felt melancholy and said, "Then you are far away."
Quiet, the sour vinegar Ding Hanbai envisioned was silent, and it was strange, obviously he could say a few words with his own vinegar, how could he be dumb when he was replaced by someone else? He asked, "What do you think?"
Ji Shenyu replied: "I'm thinking, in a few years, when Uno Min grows up and you get married, it will be inconvenient for me to live in a small courtyard. Which courtyard will I move to?"
Ding Hanbai opened his mouth to gushing blood, and was so angry that he pushed Ji Shenyu away. He wondered, he had lived arrogantly for twenty years, and now he was shaving his head and picking his head on the stall. Could it be retribution
Before Ding Hanbai could figure it out, Ji Shenyu had already rolled over to the window to look at the scene, opened the window a little, and touched the snow on the window sill outside. Sometimes it snows in Yangzhou in winter, but it's not that big. The road in front of you is white, the trees are white, and everything is white.
Ji Shenyu was fascinated by it, and when he went out, he dashed forward, playing happily in the snow.
The group was going to Bahrain Youqi. Boss Wu and his buddy led the way, Ding Hanbai and the others followed behind. The road trolley was cold and swayed slowly. Ding Hanbai glanced at the rearview mirror and asked, "Is it still uncomfortable?"
Ji Shenyu sat in the co-pilot and replied, "Much better."
Ding Hanbai continued: "There are snacks from home in the bag. If you are hungry, you can make up for it."
His caring words were incessant, contrary to the old style, and after a few words, he glanced in the rearview mirror and met Dinglehe's eyes. Ding Erhe didn't expect Ding Hanbai to be so kind to these five junior brothers, but he didn't dodge frankly.
Arrived at the right flag of Bahrain without being salty or bland, the snow was deeper, and the white was dazzling. It is getting closer, the vehicles are vertical and horizontal, not to mention the crowd, it is also very lively,
The stalls that can't be seen at a glance, buyers from all over the world, the Kishi market has been so powerful over the years. Ding Hanbai wrapped his coat and got out of the car, frowning, for fear that he would suffer from snow blindness.
When he turned around, he saw Ji Shenyu running around with snowballs, followed by a pain in his butt, and he was hit hard. He was very sensitive: "What do you mean by hitting my ass?"
Ji Shenyu replied: "Last time by the river, didn't you hit me too?"
Co-authoring is a tit-for-tat, Ding Hanbai didn't bother to make trouble anymore, snorted coldly and strode forward, Ji Shenyu caught up with him, and finally poured into the colorful market. Bahrain chicken blood is the most famous, with different shades of red and shades of red, against the white snow, it is extremely glamorous.
Ji Shenyu was fascinated. He passed several high-quality ones, but Ding Hanbai didn't stop and asked, "Brother, the chicken blood stone at that one just wasn't good enough?"
Ding Hanbai said: "Bright red and moist, good."
Ji Shenyu asked again, "Why don't you buy it?"
Ding Han gave him a blank look: "What's the hurry?"
The market covers a large area, and they walked for a long time before they reached the halfway point. Ji Shenyu either asked for advice, or was surprised by the beauty of the stone, while Ding Erhe was always silent although he enjoyed it.
If you choose well, you will get credit for going together. If you choose badly, whoever decides will be responsible.
Ding Hanbai finally stopped, half squatted in front of the booth to examine the few stones, and then directly asked the price. The price is extremely high, and the reason why the stalls are empty is that they are all scared away by the high price.
"You're not a local from your accent?" Ding Hanbai said.
The boss is a tall middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and sharp eyes, but he does not show the shrewdness of a businessman, but shows a fierce momentum. He didn't care: "Good things are better to be smashed in your hands than to be sold cheaply."
Ding Hanbai smiled and continued to stroll with his pocket in his head, but he kept the stone and the man in his mind. Ji Shenyu was beside him and asked, "Senior brother, those chicken bloodstones are high-quality suet jelly, do we want to get them?"
Ding Hanbai asked back, "What's your opinion?"
Ji Shenyu said: "In this huge market, there are more than one good products, but the asking price is several times that of others. Is it really worth it?"
If it is elsewhere, it may be a lot of money, but this is the right flag of Bahrain. How many fools can there be people who come here to buy materials? The seller has been in this business for many years, and will not be short-sighted to smash the sign.
Ding Hanbai said: "The suet jelly is not enough. From entering to the moment, most of the stones with dense bloodline color lines are dark red or even purple. If they are too much, they are inferior goods, but those few are extremely red. Furthermore, Most chicken bloodstones are mixed with red and white, and the color gamut is well-distributed, which is good chicken blood, and the translucent and all-red Dahongpao is the best."
Ji Shenyu's eyesight was insufficient, and after understanding it, he couldn't help but look back at the booth. The asking price may be higher than its own value, but because it is small and refined, and subsequent processing can appreciate, I am confident that someone will buy it. He glanced at Ding Hanbai again, not sure if Ding Hanbai would be the buyer.
The further back the market is, the more deserted it is. The bloodstones that account for the bulk are in the front, and there are basically other types in the back. Ding Hanbai was intrigued, and wished he could stop at every stall for a while.
A large piece of Bahrain frozen stone is as pink and white as the original hibiscus stone, as well as yellow, green, and colorful. The peach travertine is even more beautiful, and the color is very delicate. Ding Hanbai shuttled through it, saw the goods, asked the price, and made seven or eight orders.
Ding Erhe couldn't help it even if he was out of the way, and asked: "Han Bai, we have always been 70% chicken blood, 20% frozen stone, and 10% miscellaneous. Your money for frozen stones has exceeded."
Ding Hanbai said: "This year, I will change it, 60% frozen stone, 20% chicken blood and miscellaneous samples."
Ding Erhe asked, "Have you discussed it with Master?"
Ding Hanbai didn't discuss it with anyone, he made the decision all by himself. He continued shopping, and continued to place orders when he met good ones. After returning to the car at noon to rest, he said, "Looking at the market with jade sales records, when discussing stones, you must look at chicken blood. Why is the business volume decreasing year after year? Because of the trend Yu is saturated, vulgar, customers are tired, and it is not popular."
Ding Er and the reason argued: "This is not clothes and shoes, what are you talking about? What's more, chicken blood Tianhuang is the leader in the stone material. Is it possible that the jade sales record should be downgraded?"
The eldest and the second were arguing in the front, and Ji Shenyu watched the battle with a snack box in the back row. Ding Hanbai stroked the steering wheel and replied, "Chinese people like red and yellow, because they have feelings, and they yearn for a touch of royalty. But in the future, it's not necessarily the case. It's developing so fast, just take the various colored skewers as an example. , people have long been free from a certain aesthetic model.”
"Let's talk about downgrading." Ding Hanbai's confidence is not diminished, "Isn't it like a pimple if it is not carved? The signboard of Yupinji is hanging in vain? Our craftsmanship is in vain? Bless, give that thing a flair."
Not only to mention, but also to customers love at first sight, to be popular. Being at the mercy of the trend is mediocrity, and there is a way out if you reverse the trend. After Ding Hanbai was thirsty, he poured half a glass of cold water, Ding Erhe thought for a while, and asked uncertainly, "Can we do it?"
Ding Hanbai invited Jun into the urn: "If the heart is not aligned, and the same door will stumble, it is probably not enough."
The chewing stopped, Ji Shenyu was still breathing, he didn't expect to be able to turn around here. Ding Hanbai pointed at Sang and scolded Huai, and after a while, he opened it up and asked, "Did the jade incense burner fall from your east courtyard?"
After being silent for a long time, Ding Erhe replied, "I apologize for Keyu." He couldn't wait, got out of the car with a pack of cigarettes and walked away.
After explaining the purchase intention, Ding Hanbai forced a belated apology and was satisfied. Looking back, looking at the dim sum slag at the corner of Ji Shenyu's mouth, Wuming became angry: "Who am I venting my anger on? I mumble and eat deliciously, do you have any eyesight?!"
Ji Shenyu rushed over in a hurry and handed a piece of bean paste steak.
Ding Hanbai was dissatisfied: "I still want peanut cakes." The other party fed him, and no one cared about the crumbs of the pastry. They looked at each other with their mouths open, in this not-so-spacious carriage.
Ji Shenyu was slightly startled, took another milk biscuit and fed it, completely forgetting to fill his belly. Until Dinglehe came back, he came back to life, as if he had been hit by something, and dazedly stuffed the snack box into Ding Hanbai.
Ding Hanbai transferred it to Ding Erhe and slapped him for a sweet jujube.
After noon, the ice and snow melted a little, several cars came in line, and a large wave of people all flocked to one place. Ji Shenyu had never seen this battle before, he was holding Ding Hanbai's arm to watch the excitement, waiting for the boxes of stones to be unloaded, he exclaimed in surprise: "Jade wool, want to bet on stones?!"
Ding Hanbai warned: "Only look, don't touch."
Thousands of eyes lit up together, and those wool materials seemed to have magical powers, which were obviously dark gray, but hidden in the blue sky. The price is written on the surface of the stone, and there is a direct circle to indicate that the bracelet is made of thousands, thousands, and hundreds of thousands, which attracts buyers.
Ji Shenyu asked, "Senior brother, can you tell which piece is the top grade?"
Ding Hanbai said, "It's hard for a fairy to break an inch of jade, and I'm so powerful in your heart?" Stone gambling is like gambling. Experience and luck are indispensable, and luck is even more important.
A piece of 3,000 yuan of water material, rubbed or cut, the buyers are nervous, and the onlookers are not easy. Ding Hanbai's gaze shifted and landed on Ji Shenyu, the man Yu Xian was curious and clenched his arm tightly.
like what? Like a child looking at the toys in the window, looking at the sugar in the glass jar.
Ding Hanbai said, "The halal seeds are about to fall, go pick a piece and see your luck."
Ji Shenyu couldn't believe it: "Let me bet? Didn't you say you can't touch it?"
They came to buy stones, and the accounts were already settled. Ding Hanbai said, "I'll buy it for you myself. If it's good, it's yours. If it's bad, it's mine. Let's go."
Ji Shenyu was overwhelmed with excitement, but he had no experience in gambling stones, so he was just curious. Naturally, he didn't dare to choose expensive materials. He went around and picked a piece with a full face and two thousand yuan. It is unknown what kind of cut it will be, and it may be worthless.
He held his breath, cut with a knife, light-colored, a little green, a little spring.
Ding Hanbai came over and said, "Hey, the spring is colorful." This exaggeration made Ji Shenyu happy, but the material was really good, at least enough for a pair of bracelets, and the remaining material was about the same.
On the first day, they waited and watched, except for the one who placed the order, only this jadeite was in hand. At dusk, the people gathered because of the gambling stones dispersed one after another, and they did not want to walk on the snowy road in the dark.
This area is spacious and not blocked, but there are no rules, and all cars can drive freely. The heavy snow made the surroundings pure white, and after a few kilometers, there was still no difference. The desolation was getting worse, and there were no cars.
Ding Hanbai realized that he was going the wrong way, and immediately turned the steering wheel.
At this time, a broken bread was coming on the road, and it turned out from nowhere, and stopped at the road. This aggressive look is really inappropriate, Ding Hanbai stepped on the accelerator hard, intending to speed up the detour. But a tall, thin guy and two burly men jumped out of the car, one of them took off the pistol on his back and loaded it, with a bang!
It's too close, a tire sags, and their car shakes violently to the side.
What's more frightening is that they have difficulty judging where the next shot will be shot.
Withered trees and white snow, this trip was robbed.
It may not be a close call, but it is also unpredictable. Ding Hanbai calmly unfastened his seat belt, took a deep breath, and suddenly his palms became hot... It was Ji Shenyu who held him calmly. I don't know if it's because I'm afraid to seek protection, or if I'm brave enough to give him strength.
"Senior brother." Ji Shenyu said in a small voice, "touch my sleeve."
Ding Hanbai took out a small carving knife from his cuff, and then he shook that hand again.
When the water comes to cover him, the soldiers come to block him.
Ding Hanbai has no intention of being a hero who saves beauty, but he must protect the little Nanmanzi, the five junior brothers... this sweetheart.
The author has something to say: Ji Shenyu, a Yangzhou man who carries a controlled knife all day, makes people feel very safe.
