Chapter 37 Lost and found

As soon as he heard that he wanted to go shopping on the second floor, Xiao Ling'er pulled Xiao Yu'er and clamored to go. Xiao Yu'er pulled the old blind man and insisted on going together.

Just go and have a look with a group of people.

After submitting their answers to the audition, about half of the people left the lobby. Some were eager to go out and spread the sales news, some wanted to take advantage of the excitement and go out to brag, and some were too short of money to be able to do so.

Participate in the purchase of the second floor.

Of course, there are also people like Feng Buer who have money, leisure, and a shopping group. Of course, they cannot miss this shopping festival that happens once every ten years.

The things here can be said to be a collection of rare objects from the east, west, north and south of Zhongzhou. They are mainly jade, but they are not limited to jade. I even heard that many good things from outside the region have been transferred here. If you have a good eye, you can

No matter how much money you have, you can definitely find a product that suits you.

Everyone walked up the steps to the second floor. The hall, which was the same proportion as the first floor, suddenly opened up. This is another spectacular style.

I saw a series of black stalls, arranged from one end to the other, and then turned around and continued to extend. After finishing the outside and inside, there were six more horizontal rows. Each stall was piled with items, including jade and ancient books.

, there are all kinds of antiques, and there are also many strange things that cannot be named. They are so dazzling that you can’t see them at a glance.

Every few dozen meters, there is a special desk with a flag hanging above it, with the four words "Qian exchange two clears" written on it.

It turns out that although there are so many stalls, in order to facilitate management and the exchange of competition points, Yu Gang has unified the cash register, that is, all goods must be paid at the cashier point. Yu Gang will deduct the formalities from the money in hand.

After paying the fee, transfer it back to the merchant.

Yubang does really good business. If the handling fee is 10%, I'm afraid it will make a lot of money.

As long as the Yu Gang does good management and maintains good order, it can reap profits every day. Therefore, private cashiering is absolutely prohibited.

Chen Luo followed the S line and looked around. The things on the second floor were relatively good quality and relatively cheap. Although they were not comparable to the few pieces of ancient jade he had, there were a small number of them that were as good as Old Chen Tou's.

The batch of jade brought back from the cottage.

Suddenly, Chen Luo felt a familiar presence and saw a jade pendant lying on the opposite stall among many jade objects.

This jade pendant is exactly the "macaque" shaped jade pendant that Xiao Ling'er is wearing. The jade pendant was just lost outside yesterday, and it appears here today. It seems that this is really a gang.

It's just that the jade seller was not the thin, dark man who snatched the items before. Chen Luo walked to the stall and asked calmly: "How much does this jade pendant cost?"

"This is 50 taels of silver!" the stall owner said, "This was just delivered yesterday, the quality is good!"

Nonsense! Chen Luo thought to himself, he just lost it yesterday and put it on the shelves today? Chen Luo really wanted to catch the stall owner and beat him up, but this place is not a place where he can act wild. Besides, the stall owner might not know either.

The origin of the jade pendant. I guess it was brought in by some bad guy from outside to sell on behalf of me.

"Is 30 taels good?" Chen Luo pretended to buy it, trying to find out what the boss said.

The stall owner shook his head, thinking that I only took in more than thirty taels of silver, and with the commission from the Yu Gang, I would definitely lose money.

"I won't sell it if it's 50 taels less," the stall owner said.

"40 taels!" Chen Luo continued to counteroffer.

"Deal!" The vendor was not a rigid person, so he just calculated the profit and made a profit. Feng Buer quickly took out 40 taels of silver.

Chen Luo brought the jade pendant back to Xiao Ling'er's neck. It was something Chen Luo made carefully. It didn't matter how much it cost, but the meaning was different.

When I see the kid who stole the jade outside, I will definitely let him pay back double or ten times! Chen Luo thought to himself.

Ever since he won a jade pillow in a bet with the jade boss in the field yesterday, Chen Luo has become extremely enthusiastic about picking up leaks. With the blessing of his own talent, Chen Luo has to identify the most cost-effective stones in the jade pile.

It's not difficult to say.

It's just that this place is different from the outside. The shops here are as smart as monkeys. In addition, the customers here are all professional players, including many jade masters. It is estimated that any leaks have been picked up early.

Chen Luo just placed his hope in those things that all the masters had misunderstood, or that even the masters looked down upon.

However, this is not easy. People who can come here not only have good vision, but also have good money. Basically, the so-called "leakage" does not exist. Chen Luo and the blind grandfather Feng Buer visited two rows of stalls and concluded this

law.

On the contrary, the stall selling ancient books allowed Chen Luo to see a lot of books that could be supplemented. Some were about jade and some about local chronicles. Chen Luo didn't care about them and bought two books based on his feeling. One was "Jiangcheng Ming".

Records", a book of "Songyang Stone Carvings".

I chose "Jiangcheng Mingjilu" because this is the home of Chen Luo's grandfather. Ever since he found out that besides his two grandfathers, he had other relatives, Chen Luo couldn't wait to know everything about his family.

When choosing "Songyang Stone Carvings", it felt full-screen. Looking at the inscriptions page after page, Chen Luo felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy.

The two books are not expensive at all, only ten taels of silver each.

By the way, Chen Luo found two more good things, the sky silk from South Vietnam and the gold foil from the Western Regions. These two things can be used to make jade bags to block the information emitted by the jade.

After all, the three pieces of black dragon ink jade are a bit crowded now. Chen Luo plans to weave a larger jade pouch so that if he gets the fourth jade token, he will have room to dress it up.

Along the way down, Chen Luo had gained a lot. Time flew by quickly, and it was getting late in the blink of an eye. Everyone was already hungry. We won’t go up to the third floor to see it today, and Feng Buer greeted everyone and prepared to leave.

Walking out of Kunlun Pavilion, I saw that the results of the morning competition had been posted. Of the ten thousand contestants, 3,000 had all the correct results, 4,000 had guessed two, and 4,000 had only guessed one or two correctly.

Got the duck eggs.

The top 7,000 people who advance in the final round will be eliminated, and the next 3,000 people will be eliminated. The results are well-deserved, and the remaining players are all relatively professional or lucky players. Those eliminated are all here to join in the fun.

I was mentally prepared for my own exit.

I don’t care about eternity, I only care about what I once had. I’m here, I participated, and that’s enough.

As expected, Chen Luo and Feng Buer both advanced, and both of them guessed correctly. It seems that Uncle Feng came prepared, Chen Luo thought to himself.

In the square, the lottery vendors were even more excited about selling tickets. This time, except for the seeded players, the odds of all the participating players were revealed.

It has to be said that the bookmaker is very powerful. It got the list of all the promoted players so quickly and customized the corresponding odds. In addition, the types of lottery tickets are also much richer. In addition to the championship prize, there are also promotion prizes.

Chen Luo looked at his own odds. The odds of betting on himself to win the championship were 1:1000, and the odds of betting on himself to advance to the next round were 1:2.

This is a chance to make a fortune, Chen Luo thought.
