Li Zhuo walked out of the community, hesitated for a moment, and decided not to take the bus to save time, and then waved for a taxi.

"Master, take me to Gudang Vegetable Market in Xihu District."

"The one on Tianmu Mountain Road?"

"Yes, it's very close to Zhejiang University."

"I understand! Just put on your seat belt and let's go."

……

After entering the vegetable market, Li Zhuo went straight to the Tamsui production area and found this golden-tailed grass carp in a red plastic basin in front of a stall.

It should be a local wild grass carp species, with a body length of about 30 centimeters, which is also large among grass carp, and it is estimated to live for many years.

There is a circle of smoke surrounding its head. With this circle of smoke, Li Zhuo can clearly perceive its thoughts.

This idea can be transformed into human language through the "translation" of the incense burner.

This guy is indeed smart. His white belly is facing up and his eyes are staring at the fish, pretending to be dead. He is probably afraid that customers will find it fresh and take it home to make braised fish.

Li Zhuo squatted down, pretending to pick something, put his hand into the water, and picked up the fish.

"Hey, Brother Yu, are you still alive?"

The golden-tailed grass carp continues to roll its eyes:

"I'm living well, but I'm a little depressed, probably due to lack of oxygen."

Then he turned over and returned to normal.

Yes, this guy has a good attitude.

"Ha, you still know about hypoxia. After all, what is your wish?"

Grass carp: "My only wish is to return to the lake. I don't want to become a river delicacy on the tip of my tongue."

Li Zhuo asked curiously:

"Where did you live before?"

The grass carp waggled its tail and then passed by the incense burner. Li Zhuo shared a picture of it living leisurely in the water.

This must be the West Lake, because through the eyes of the fish, he saw the Leifeng Pagoda.

"I understand, what can you give in return?"

This golden-tailed grass carp spits out bubbles, another shared picture.

Li Zhuo judged that this scene should be underwater, with light filtering through the water and something shining golden under the water.

What kind of baby is this?

It seems to be some kind of gold coin with a weird pattern.

Li Zhuo's heart was beating very fast. He was sure that he would get something good this time.

He stood up and asked the fat landlady:

"How much does this fish cost per pound?"

"This is a large local grass carp, delicious, tender meat, 8 pieces."

Li Zhuo's counteroffer:

"No, it's usually about 6 yuan per catty. How can you sell it so expensive? Not to mention that this fish is half-dead and ugly. It only costs 3 yuan per catty at most..."

Golden tail grass carp:......

However, it cooperated very well. It rolled its fish eyes and pretended to be dead. No matter how Li Zhuo shook it, it didn't struggle.

The landlady saw that it seemed to be dying and said:

"Then it's 6 yuan a pound, no more."

"4 yuan!"

Boss lady: "..."

Li Zhuo: "..., how about four and a half yuan!"

In the end, Li Zhuo bought the fish for 22 yuan.

After the boss lady collected the money, she touched the knife and started to kill the fish.

Li Zhuo took the fish back and said with a smile:

"This fish is full of energy. I'm about to take it out and release it. Please don't kill it for me."

After saying that, he put the fish into the plastic bag and filled it with some water.

As expected, the fish was swimming around in the bag, opening and closing its mouth, looking very happy.

Boss lady:......

Li Zhuo left the farmer's market with the fish, and then walked to the West Lake.

Communicate while walking:

"Brother, don't go near the river bank in the future, you know? Occasionally, people will come to the bank to set nets and fish illegally. Be careful to become West Lake vinegar fish;

Also, stay away from the lotus pond. The pond is cleaned every year and bleaching powder is sprayed there, so don’t get killed.

I just saved you, but I don’t want you to turn into a piece of cake so soon..."

Grass carp:......

It was not far from the wet market to the shore of West Lake. Li Zhuo walked there quickly, but he also went around and around to find the most suitable place to release the golden-tailed grass carp.

"Are you ready? Let's go, don't forget to give me the gold coins!"

Li Zhuo poured the golden-tailed grass carp into the West Lake. It shook its tail happily, looked back at Li Zhuo, and then dived into the lake.

Li Zhuo was a little worried. He couldn't help but ask about the incense burner in his backpack:

"Brother Lu, there won't be anything in return, right? If there really isn't anything, you have to make up for it for me."

Incense burner:......

It was already evening at this time, and before long, ripples appeared on the lake in front of Li Zhuo. The golden-tailed grass carp looked at it and then swam towards him.

There were not many people around, and no one cared about the person looking out at the lake. Li Zhuo quickly lay down on the ground, stretched out his hand to hold the gold coin in the grass carp's mouth, and stood up after holding it firmly.

He didn't look at it, and then put the gold coins into his pants pocket, not caring that the water wet his pants a little.

"Goodbye, Brother Fish!" He waved to the lake, and the grass carp waved its tail gracefully, and then dived into the water.

After the matter was completed, he turned around and left the lake.

Feeling a little hungry, he walked into a noodle shop on the roadside. He was so happy today that he had to eat the most expensive noodles.

Popped eel noodles 68 yuan a bowl.

That’s it.

Li Zhuo shouted towards the kitchen without changing his expression:

"Boss, a vegetable and meat noodles, plus a braised egg."

The fried eel noodles were too expensive, so Li Zhuo couldn't bear to part with them in the end.

"Okay, vegetable and meat noodles 13 yuan, braised egg 1.5 yuan, a total of 14 yuan 5."

After eating noodles, Li Zhuo took the subway home.

When I got home, the man I lived with had already returned. His name was Wu Tao. He had a better family situation than Li Zhuo and had some connections at home. After graduating from college, he found connections and worked in a publishing house that specialized in printing primary school teaching aids. The salary was average.

, but the bonuses are said to be quite large, with an average monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan.

It is precisely because of this that he does not think highly of Li Zhuo, who comes from an ordinary family and has an ordinary job.

But this guy is a bitch, and he spends most of his monthly salary on his new girlfriend, so he can only live in the same old shabby apartment as Li Zhuo.

Wu Tao is sitting on the sofa in the living room making a phone call. It’s quite noisy.

Li Zhuo waved his hand calmly, then entered his bedroom and locked the door.

He placed his backpack on the desk, and then took out the gold coin from his pocket.

The obverse side of this gold coin shows the profile of a bearded king. The middle position of the reverse side is a shield with a crown on top and a golden fleece underneath. The Arabic numeral 8 is written on the left side of the shield and the letters "8" are written on the right side.

S”.

According to the alphabetical text on the gold coin, Li Zhuo searched it on his mobile phone and finally determined that it was a Spanish Ferdinand VII gold coin, minted in Colombia in 1809, with a face value of 8 escudos, its currency value is approximately equal to 1 ounce, and its weight is approximately 27

Gram, the gold content is 90%.

According to an online search, its market price is about 30,000 yuan, and it has good appreciation potential.

But the problem is how to do it. The wishing incense burner does provide the function of recycling valuable items, but it is only half the price, which feels like half of the loss.

He casually put the Ferdinand VII gold coin into the incense burner. The market price of the incense burner was 34,000 yuan, and the half-price recovery was 17,000 yuan.

Li Zhuo decided to take a look online. He found a treasure appraiser on Douyin called "Mao Mao Appraisal". He had visited this app on Douyin before and felt that the appraiser on this account had a very venomous mouth and could not speak well.

I'm going to be lenient, but I feel pretty accurate about what I'm seeing.

Anyway, Li Zhuo knows the origin and general value of this thing. Even if the treasure appraiser talks nonsense, it will not affect him. It will be easier to sell it later after appraising it.

He sent the other party a private message, and it didn't take long for the other party to send a reply.
