Betting stone shop.
"Jinyue, what's so interesting about betting on stones! There is a big business next to it, you can buy whatever you like." Ouyang Jing said to a six-year-old girl.
Ouyang Jinyue shook her head, and said disapprovingly: "What's there to do in a big business house? It's all those things when you go shopping. I don't know how boring it is, and how exciting it is to bet on stones! One knife is poor, and one knife is rich. Sister Ouyang, you I heard no. Before, someone was gambling in the stone field. He bought a stone with a bad quality for two ounces of silver. As a result, he opened a good-quality spirit bead from it and sold it for 20 yuan. How many taels of silver!"
Ouyang Jing nodded, forced a smile and said, "I've heard of it."
There are those lucky ones who became rich overnight because of betting on stones, but more people lost their money overnight because of betting on stones.
Ouyang Jing frowned. Ouyang Jinyue was young, but she was the daughter of the Ouyang family. Small, hot-tempered, and very difficult to deal with, Ouyang Jing was torn apart by Ouyang Jinyue.
"Jinyue, you are still young, we can wait a few years to discuss the stone betting matter." Ouyang Jing had a headache, if the city lord knew that she took his beloved daughter to the stone betting field, he would be very angry.
Ouyang Jinyue curled her lips, "Why does it take a few years, I'm already very big now."
Ouyang Jing said helplessly: "Jinyue, you are still young."
"Then what about him." Ouyang Jinyue raised her hand and pointed towards Xiao Xiaofan.
Ouyang Jing looked towards the direction Ouyang Jinyue pointed, and saw Xiao Xiaofan raised his hands high, holding an oval stone with a diameter of more than 80 centimeters, Xiao Xiaofan looked small and pitiful under the huge stone, making people feel I am very worried that the huge stone will crush people.
Xiao Xiaofan was walking staggeringly, when the guests around saw him, they all showed worried expressions.
Xiao Jingting hugged a stone the size of a basketball, and followed behind Xiao Xiaofan awkwardly.
Many people in the stone gambling shop looked at Xiao Jingting with a look of condemnation. Xiao Jingting was a little embarrassed. The youngest son wanted to show his might and extraordinary, and rushed to move the big one. He was unhappy and gave him the big one. Forced to helplessness!
Since Xiao Xiaofan practiced, he has gradually demonstrated his innate talent for supernatural power. This stone is a bit heavy, but it cannot crush his own son. Xiao Jingting still has confidence in this point.
Ouyang Jinyue walked up to Xiao Xiaofan, looked at Xiao Xiaofan with great interest, "Little brother, you are really strong."
"Average."
"Little brother, your eyesight is really bad."
"No, no, good eyesight."
Ouyang Jinyue curled her lips, and said disdainfully: "Looking at the rotten stones you bought, how dare you say you have good eyesight."
Xiao Xiaofan glanced at Ouyang Jinyue and said, "Where is it bad?"
"There are so many cracks on this stone, it is the worst cracked stone, and no good things can be opened." Ouyang Jinyue said with her head held high.
Xiao Xiaofan blushed, said: "No, no, there are good things in this stone!"
"Oh, what a good thing! Tell me about it." Ouyang Jinyue asked.
"I don't know." Xiao Xiaofan said.
Ouyang Jinyue laughed and said, "You idiot."
Xiao Xiaofan glared at Ouyang Jinyue angrily, and said, "It's not an idiot, it's not an idiot."
Ouyang Jinyue watched Xiao Xiaofan's reaction, snorted lightly, and said, "So you're an idiot!"
Xiao Xiaofan blushed and said angrily: "Nonsense, nonsense."
"Little brother, it's not like you to bet on stones. I'll show you when my sister finds some stones." Ouyang Jinyue left with her head held high.
Ouyang Jing looked at Xiao Jingting and frowned slightly.
Looking at Ouyang Jing's reaction, Xiao Jingting knew that Ouyang Jing recognized his identity, but Ouyang Jing obviously didn't want to have anything to do with him.
Xiao Jingting didn't know how to face this woman who had an affair with Xiao Qingyan, seeing that the other party didn't mean to say hello, Xiao Jingting naturally wouldn't make fun of herself.
There were a lot of people in the stone gambling shop, many people were paying the bills, and some were cutting stones, Xiao Jingting and Xiao Xiaofan stood aside and waited in line to pay the bills.
Xiao Xiaofan held the stone high and lined up in the queue, which was unusually eye-catching.
Xiao Jingting looked at the mighty Xiao Xiaofan and said: "Son, put it down." My son is really a model worker! Such a heavy stone is not too heavy!
Xiao Xiaofan shook his head, said: "No, no, not tired, not tired."
Xiao Jingting rubbed his nose, he is not tired, but he is very tired from being stared at by others!
"Boss, we want these few stones." Xiao Jingting couldn't wait to say to the owner of the stone gambling shop after finally getting himself in line.
"OK."
Just as the owner of the stone gambling shop wanted to settle the bill for Xiao Jingting, Ouyang Jinyue rushed over aggressively with a few servants, "Boss, settle the bill for me, and then, cut these stones for me."
As soon as Ouyang Jinyue opened her mouth, the shopkeeper immediately threw aside Xiao Jingting who was about to pay the bill.
"We arrived first." Xiao Xiaofan muttered dissatisfied.
Xiao Jingting rubbed Xiao Xiaofan's head, said: "No hurry, no hurry, wait a little longer."
"Miss Ouyang, the total is 150,000 taels of silver." The owner said courteously.
Ouyang Jinyue took out a stack of banknotes from the space ring, and slapped them on the table in a wealthy manner.
Xiao Jingting's eyes widened, and he thought to himself: This damn girl is a prodigal daughter! The one who came out of the Hou's mansion was really rich and powerful. This is more than a hundred thousand taels of silver.
Xiao Jingting originally thought that he was a bit rich, but when he saw Ouyang Jinyue, Xiao Jingting suddenly realized that his wealth might not be as good as this little girl.
After Ouyang Jinyue passed, it was finally Xiao Jingting's turn.
"Want to cut stone?" asked the innkeeper.
Xiao Jingting shook his head and said, "No need."
"Cut it? Isn't it just two broken stones? Do you have to hide it and cut it?" Ouyang Jinyue puffed her cheeks and said dissatisfied.
Xiao Jingting: "..." This stinky girl, a prodigal daughter, really meddles in other people's business.
The stones bought by Xiao Xiaofan were always cut by Xiao Jingting in hiding, and Xiao Jingting also bought a cutting machine specially for cutting stones.
Xiao Xiaofan glanced at Ouyang Jinyue's stones, and said: "You can't get good products out of these stones."
Ouyang Jinyue became annoyed and said, "What are you talking about, the stone you picked is a rotten stone."
Xiao Xiaofan blinked, holding the stone in silence.
"Guest, you can cut stones in the store, our store cuts stones for free." The owner urged.
Seeing the eyes of many people around, Xiao Jingting weighed it, nodded, and said, "Okay."
Ouyang Jinyue glanced at Xiao Xiaofan and said, "Cut mine first, then his."
Xiao Xiaofan rolled his eyes and did not speak.
Ouyang Jinyue's stones were cut one by one, and a few pieces of top-grade spiritual jade with good quality were produced. Although they were not bad, after a rough estimate, those spiritual jades were only worth five to sixty thousand taels of silver. .
Many people around Ouyang Jinyue were complimenting her, betting ten times out of ten, and Ouyang Jinyue recovered some of the cost anyway, so it's not bad luck.
If it weren't for Xiao Xiaofan's unique ability, Xiao Jingting would never have touched this thing.
Looking at the results, Ouyang Jinyue frowned dissatisfied.
"Little fool, it's your turn." Ouyang Jinyue said.
Xiao Xiaofan glanced at Ouyang Jinyue, and said in a sullen voice, "I'm not a fool, my name is Xiao Xiaofan."
Ouyang Jinyue shrugged irresolutely, and said, "Your name is really bad."
Xiao Xiaofan bit his lip and ignored Ouyang Jinyue.
"Cut carefully." Xiao Xiaofan carefully put down the stone and sent it to the stone cutter.
"Okay, little guest, don't worry."
Xiao Xiaofan nodded, squatting on the side nervously.
Ouyang Jinyue looked at Xiao Xiaofan as if he was facing a big enemy, snorted lightly, and said: "It's just a broken stone, you still treat it as a treasure."
Xiao Xiaofan glanced at Ouyang Jinyue, but didn't say anything.
The stone was cut smaller and smaller, and nothing came out.
Ouyang Jinyue looked at Xiao Xiaofan's nervous appearance, gloated and said: "I told you that your rock is rotten, you still don't believe it."
Xiao Xiaofan stared at the side with his eyes wide open, and couldn't help saying: "Be careful, be careful."
"Hey, stone in stone."
When cut to the very middle, the stone turns amber, and something can be seen in the stone.
"Little fool, you're lucky."
"Hey, a bug." Ouyang Jinyue leaned over to watch the excitement, "There is a bug in your rock, although it is a bit novel, it is worthless."
"Guest officer, why don't we pay 30,000 taels of silver for your stone?" the owner of the gambling stone shop said calmly.
Ouyang Jinyue said the stone that Xiao Xiaofan picked was not of good quality, although it was larger, it was only worth five thousand taels.
"No, no." Xiao Xiaofan hurriedly shook his head and said.
"Brother, I look at the worms in the stone, they are really cute, why don't I pay one hundred thousand taels of silver?" A man in a brocade robe came out and said.
"Little devil, the stone you gambled is worth one hundred thousand taels." Ouyang Jinyue said in surprise.
Xiao Shangfan stared at the worm in the stone intently, swallowed, and said: "This worm smells so good, it must be delicious when fried."
Ouyang Jinyue looked at Xiao Xiaofan in disbelief, and said, "Hey, you actually eat fried bugs, you are so disgusting."
Xiao Xiaofan cast a full glance at Ouyang Jinyue, and said, "Fried bugs are delicious."
As soon as Xiao Jingting heard the bids from the owner and the man in the brocade robe, he knew that this bug was a good thing, but they didn't know how to bully him, "I don't want to sell this thing."
"I will give you fifteen pieces of spirit stones." A flat voice came over, interrupting Xiao Jingting's unspoken words.
A man with gray hair and a flagon hanging from his body came out.
Xiao Jingting was shocked all of a sudden, Lingshi is a good thing! The production of spirit stones in this world is very small, and the veins of spirit stones are controlled by some top forces. One piece of spirit stone can be sold for 50,000 to 60,000 taels. The silver is almost close to the Xiao family's annual income.
Although the man looked ordinary, the shop fell silent as soon as he appeared.
"Senior Zhao, why are you here?" The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face.
Zhao Jin glanced at the shopkeeper lightly, and said, "Wang Quan, thirty thousand taels of silver is probably not enough to buy the ninth-grade elixir silkworm."
The owner, Wang Quan, smiled awkwardly.
Senior, Xiao Jingting's heart was pounding. The store owner's cultivation of the eighth level of Qi training, which he called senior, was naturally a foundation builder.
"Little friend, I'm going to refine the elixir recently, and I just need this elixir, silkworm. I wonder if I can give it up." Zhao Jin said.
Xiao Jingting nodded, and hurriedly said: "Of course, if you like it, senior, you can take it." Foundation-building powerhouse! He can't afford to offend such a person,
Zhao Jin glanced at Xiao Jingting, threw out a bag of spirit stones and a token, "I don't take advantage of you either, you take this spirit stone and this token, you can come to me."
Xiao Jingting quickly thanked him, and Xiao Jingting thought to himself: I am afraid that someone is going to follow him because of the limelight today. Zhao Jin's token is equivalent to a talisman, which should make people who are watching him fearful. Thinking of Zhao Jin Jin defended himself so well, Xiao Jingting couldn't help feeling a little more fond of this senior Zhao.
