Lu Fei was very excited when he came across an ebony box in Chen Jiajia's firewood shed.
Ebony, also known as gloomy wood, combines the elegance of wood with the charm of stone, and is known as the "Oriental sacred tree" and "plant mummy".
Earthquakes, floods, and mudslides buried all ground plants and organisms in low-lying areas such as ancient river beds, and buried some trees in the mud.
Under the condition of lack of oxygen and high pressure, under the action of bacteria and other microorganisms, ebony is formed through a carbonization process that lasts for tens of millions of years, so it is also called "carbonized wood".
Ancient people throughout the ages have used ebony to ward off evil spirits and make handicrafts, Buddha statues, amulet pendants, etc.
Emperor Kangxi said of ebony that "it rides on the aura of heaven and earth and gathers the essence of the sun and moon. It is the spirit of all trees and the lord of spiritual trees." .??.
For this reason, ebony is also known as the "Dongfeng Sacred Wood".
Ebony has been very expensive since ancient times, so there is a saying that "Half a square of ebony at home is worth a box of treasure."
In addition to Ebony's high-end style, Lu Fei is more interested in his own characteristics.
The trees that form ebony must have their own fragrance and have bactericidal properties, such as willow trees, green gang trees, camphor trees, nanmu and other precious tree species.
Once ebony is formed, it never fades, decays, or infests insects. It is an excellent material for making works of art and antique furniture.
Lu Fei got the Dongle Qin at Mrs. Ma's house and has been trying to find a good piece of wood to make the body of the piano, but unfortunately he never found it.
I didn't expect to encounter ebony aniseed here today. It really took no effort to find it after searching for it everywhere!
Lu Fei priced the ebony box at three million, and Chen Jiajia stood stunned on the spot.
As a rural child, I have been accustomed to a life of poverty since I was a child, and I have never experienced the concept of a huge sum of three million.
Even just a few hours ago, I was helpless with tens of thousands of dollars in medical expenses, and almost ruined the rest of my life by asking for compromise.
A three-million-dollar super pie suddenly hit her on the head, and Chen Jiajia was shocked and couldn't calm down for a long time.
"Hey, I'm telling you What’s the word!”
"Is three million okay? If not, let's discuss it carefully." Lu Fei asked again.
Only then did Chen Jiajia wake up from the shock.
"Lu Fei, don't lie to me. Is this box really so valuable?"
"Really, if you meet someone you really like, the offer will only be higher than three million."
"If you are not satisfied with the price, we can still discuss it," Lu Fei said.
Chen Jiajia thought for a moment, bit her lip and said.
"You saved me twice, and now you are helping my mother treat her illness. Since you like it, I will give you this box for free."
"Just take it as a thank you."
Um?
To be honest, Lu Fei really didn't expect Chen Jiajian to say such things.
Three million is nothing to me, but it means a lot to a family like Chen Jiajia.
With these three million, their lives will be completely changed. At least her mother won't have to work as hard as she does now.
But Chen Jiajia actually wanted to give it to herself for free, which made Lu Fei very impressed with her.
"Silly woman, this is three million!"
"you."
Chen Jiajia kicked the ebony box angrily, which made Lu Fei feel very distressed. He hugged the box and yelled loudly with eyes wide open.
"What are you doing? You must be sick!"
"Lu Fei, I'm warning you one last time. If you dare to call me a stupid woman again, I will chop this box into pieces and set it on fire." Chen Jiajia said angrily.
"Hey, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, isn't this called habit?"
"Speaking of which, if you don't want three million, that's really a bit of a deal."
"You still say?"
"have
Tell me what you said next and see if I dare to chop it up?" Chen Jiajia roared angrily.
"No, please don't."
"If such a good thing is broken up, it will be a waste of natural resources and will be punished by God."
"But then again, you must accept the three million, otherwise I would rather not have it."
"No, I owe you too much. I said I would give this box to you, so I won't ask for your money."
"I don't want it if you don't accept it."
"If you don't want me to, I'll chop it up and light the fire."
"Fuck me."
"Why are you so stubborn!"
Seeing the deflated and constipated look on Lu Fei's face, Chen Jiajia burst into laughter, her heart filled with the joy of being a winner.
"I have the final say on my things. That's it. You take the box with you when you leave."
Lu Fei gritted his teeth and said.
"Chen Jiajia, you must accept the money, otherwise I won't care about your mother's illness."
"You are despicable!"
"Hey, I have the final say in my medical skills!"
"Go to hell."
In the end, Chen Jiajia was defeated by Lu Fei's shamelessness and had no choice but to compromise.
But after a fierce war of words, in the end Chen Jiajia only accepted 2.2 million.
The remaining 800,000 yuan is for Lu Fei's medical expenses, the cost of the dog's treasure, and shipping costs.
This made Lu Fei really dumbfounded.
After putting away the boxes and picking up the homemade rubber boat, the two of them came to Duotian.
Pulling up the ground cage that Liu Juan had laid a few days ago, it was full of harvests. In addition to hairy crabs, there were also eels, which were all Lu Fei's favorite ingredients.
Enjoying the dinner beautifully, Lu Fei said goodbye after dinner.
Goubao will be able to go to Magic City tonight and come back tomorrow to treat Liu Juan.
Liu Juan couldn't hold her back, so she dragged her haggard body away until Lu Fei completely disappeared. Walking back reluctantly.
"Daughter, Lu Fei is a good kid, you have to take advantage of him!"
"Mom, what are you talking about? We are just friends."
"What's wrong, my friend? Your father and I didn't even talk before we got married. Didn't we become husband and wife?"
"Wouldn't it be better for friends to develop well as a couple?"
"Mom, how old am I? I'm still in school. Please stop talking, okay?"
"You are already twenty, not young anymore. Mom was only nineteen when she gave birth to you."
"Oh, I won't tell you anymore. I hate it so much."
I got a lot from my visit to Chen's house today. Not only did I get an ebony box, but I also had a delicious meal of hairy crabs. It was really a worthwhile trip.
Lu Fei hummed a tune and drove out of the village in his big Hummer.
But as soon as he got on the road, he was blocked by several sports cars.
Damn it, it's those two idiots from the Du family again.
His good mood was ruined instantly. Lu Fei opened the car door and rushed out, ready to beat someone up.
Seeing Lu Fei walking towards him angrily, Du Qifeng stepped back and waved his hand.
"Lu Fei, don't come over."
"We are not here to fight with you today. We have other things to discuss with you."
"oh?"
"What can I discuss with you?" Lu Fei asked in confusion.
Du Qilin bravely stepped forward and said.
"Lu Fei, we want to buy back the Jade Toad Backflow Incense Burner from you. Please set a price."
"Want to buy an incense burner?"
"Let me guess, is something really wrong with your Du family?" Lu Fei said with a smirk.
Du Qilin gritted his teeth and said.
"You don't have to worry about how our Du family is doing. Just make an offer. As long as it's not too much, we can accept it."
"Hey, I'm sorry, I won't sell this incense burner."
