Chapter 49 10,000 taels of gold

"Here, where did you get this wooden Buddha?"

Zhao Xiaole stared at the wooden Buddha in his hand.

Huang Qian glanced at the wooden Buddha in his hand in despair, as if all his strength had been taken away from him in just a moment, and he weakly said: "Over there."

He gestured in a direction.

Sure enough, Zhao Xiaole saw an empty shelf over there, which was obviously the place where the wooden Buddha was placed.

It's just that he had been guarding Lu Jianxing just now, and because it was relatively remote and there were only some unimportant things piled up there, he didn't notice it at all.

"Brother Huang, can you sell this thing to me? I am willing to pay one thousand taels of gold!"

Zhao Xiaole stared at him with bright eyes and said.

If the people outside heard this, they would immediately explode and frantically encourage Huang Qian to agree.

Because what is the concept of one thousand taels of gold!

An ordinary person's annual expenses are only four to five taels of silver.

And one thousand taels of silver is worth one tael of gold!

In other words, this gold can last an ordinary person for 200,000 years.

But now, Zhao Xiaole used it to buy an inconspicuous wooden Buddha!

But what was even more surprising was that Huang Qian was not excited at all about this. Instead, he looked at the wooden Buddha in his hand with complicated eyes. After a long time, he handed the wooden Buddha over.

"Take it! I don't want your money!"

"Um?"

Zhao Xiaole was stunned.

He originally planned to give him all the pieces of his body first, and then pick up the pieces that were missing.

But now, he was dumbfounded.

You don’t want one thousand taels of gold?

Although Huang Qian is honest and not good at communication, he is not stupid. He can naturally tell what Zhao Xiaole is thinking at a glance, so he explained: "The reason why Huang came to participate in this recruitment selection is that Huang Qian has a crush on Miss Qin."

I really love you and want to have a good relationship with Miss Qin."

"But I hope Miss Qin can be happy, marry a good man, and live happily."

"Now that Miss Qin has already secretly harbored feelings for you, sir, why should I interfere again and ruin your relationship?"

"grown ups!"

Huang Qian glanced at Zhao Xiaole with complicated eyes and said, "Huang also hopes that adults can take more care of Miss Qin and not let her get hurt."

"This is enough for Huang!"

Zhao Xiaole was speechless for a moment.

He didn't expect that Huang Qian's love for Qin Sining had reached such an extent.

As long as the other person is living well, that's enough!

Although Zhao Xiaole couldn't understand it, it didn't stop him from respecting Huang Qian and nodded sternly.

Seeing this, Huang Qian breathed a sigh of relief, with a relieved smile on his face.

He handed the wooden Buddha into Zhao Xiaole's hands and said with a smile: "In this way, Huang will have no regrets!"

After saying that, he walked out empty-handed, obviously wanting to give up.

Zhao Xiaole was silent.

He looked at the wooden Buddha in his hand, and suddenly looked at Huang Qian and said, "Do you believe in me so much that you will be good to Qin Sining? I am a well-known dandy in the capital!"

Huang Qian's footsteps paused, he suddenly laughed, and walked forward without looking back: "Huang believes that a person's poems will not deceive others."

"A person who can write poems like 'I want to be young in black clothes, with orchid hair and swords and swords flying across the clouds', even if he is a dandy, how bad can he be?"

After saying that, he had already walked out of the warehouse.

Looking at his back, Zhao Xiaole was silent for a long time.

He suddenly understood why Huang Qian was so friendly to him.

No matter how much he tried to shame him, he never blamed himself and made himself think he was a gay.

It turns out that the root knot is here.

yes!

A person's poetry cannot lie.

Because it contains all the spirit of the creator.

But the problem is, I am not the author of this poem...

He clenched the wooden Buddha in his hand and strode outside the warehouse.

This time, we still don’t know who will win and who will lose!

As soon as he went out, Zhao Xiaole heard the crazy discussions of the people watching, all talking about why Huang Qian abstained from voting, and how it was a pity.

It wasn't until they saw Zhao Xiaole coming out that all their eyes fell on Zhao Xiaole.

"Look, Zhao Xiaole finally came out. What is he holding in his hand? It seems to be a Buddha?"

"It's a statue of the Buddha, but it doesn't look like the wood it's made of is good wood? It's incomparable to Mr. Lu's golden tortoise!"

"Tch! With his knowledge, can he compare with Mr. Lu? He is from Qinglu Academy!"

"Yes! Huh, he won the last round by luck, but now he is fighting for real. Look, he will do it right away!"

"Yes, let me see! The son-in-law of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce this time is probably Mr. Lu!"

Everyone is optimistic about Lu Jianxing.

After all, Lu Jianxing came from a family of poetry and calligraphy and was a student of Qinglu Academy, so he was naturally sought after by everyone.

And how can Zhao Xiaole, an ignorant and ignorant dandy, not be hated by people?

On the other side, Lu Jianxing also looked at Zhao Xiaole with a disdainful smile, as if he was laughing at him for being fooled by such a simple trick.

Zhao Xiaole, on the other hand, was too lazy to pay attention to him and spoke with facts.

"Okay, time's up, the selection is over!"

Butler Wu watched the last bit of incense burn out and immediately said: "Because Mr. Huang gave up midway, our leader for today's selection will be between Mr. Lu and Mr. Zhao."

"Now, first of all, please present the treasures selected by Mr. Lu!"

Lu Jianxing laughed confidently, glanced at Zhao Wuji provocatively, and then handed the golden turtle in his hand to the servant and presented it to the masters.

Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes suddenly became hot.

After all, regardless of other values ​​​​of this golden turtle, this palm-sized piece of gold is only worth a lot of money.

Soon, the golden tortoise was brought to Mr. Cai. He studied it carefully against the sunlight for a long time, and then in the eyes of everyone looking forward to it, he chuckled and said: "According to my appraisal, this object should be from the previous dynasty."

A royal thing."

"Whether it is the carving technique or the pattern, it is exquisite and an absolute masterpiece!"

"So my appraisal is that it is authentic!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience suddenly exclaimed.

Hearing that it was a royal possession of the previous dynasty makes people want to collect it.

After all, how could they, ordinary people, ever use royal objects?

So this thing can just satisfy their curiosity.

Experience items that only royals can use.

After exclaiming, everyone became very concerned about the value of this item.

Butler Wu also immediately asked: "Mr. Cai, how much is this item worth?"

Everyone immediately stretched their ears and listened carefully.

Master Cai slowly stretched out a finger and said, "Ten thousand taels of gold!"

"What? Ten thousand taels of gold, just a little turtle?"

Everyone was in disbelief.

This little turtle only looks like about ten taels, and now it has doubled in size by a hundred times?

However, Master Cai continued to smile and said: "This is still a conservative estimate!"

Suddenly there was another burst of exclamation.

Everyone looked at the golden turtle with great enthusiasm.

I thought to myself, it would be great if this was mine, and I wouldn’t have to worry about it in my life!

Naturally, Butler Wu would not let them have this opportunity. He quickly asked the maid to carefully put away the golden tortoise, and then said loudly: "Next, I invite Mr. Zhao and his selection!"

Everyone's eyes were all focused on Zhao Xiaole.

But when they saw the wooden Buddha in Zhao Xiaole's hand, they all showed disdain.
