The Xiao Yao Faction
Chapter 23 Jade Ring
Huaqing City, over ten years ago, was still a small market town, but then, because Tian Tianqi established a sect in Huaqing Mountain ten miles away from Huaqing City, it was still a small market town, a surprising change is happening here. After several years of development, this Huaqing City was established. Although Huaqing City is not as prosperous as some big cities, it can still be said to be a medium-sized city, and many traders who pass by, so the city is still very crowded.
Especially during this period, Huaqing Sect leader Bai Tianqi celebrated his sixtieth birthday, and there were many people from the martial arts world in the city.
"Oh, shopkeeper, don't look. This new shirt is perfect for you. "A waiter couldn't help but laugh as he watched his shopkeeper continue to fix his clothes.
"really? Fits great? " After hearing this, the shopkeeper smiled faintly and asked.
“Really, how can I lie to you?" The attendant said with a smile, "Store Guard, isn't it Boss Wu who came to check on him? Do you have to be so nervous?"
“What do you know?” The shopkeeper glared at the attendant, and then said, “Bos Wu is in charge of the 'Tianlin Pawnshop' branch in over a dozen cities, and he has a lot of power. If you accidentally offended me, then I Will you still be the shopkeeper?"
The man smiled and said nothing more. Although he did not know who Boss Wu was, he knew about Tianlin's Pawnshop, which was the number one pawnshop in the world, with semicolons all over the country.
“By the way, among the pawns we received during this period, are you ready with that precious item?” ask the shopkeeper.
"Store guard, don't worry. I cleaned everything up last night. Don't worry, I won't miss your important event" the attendant smiled.
The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, then stood in front of the pawnshop door, waiting for the arrival of boss Wu whom he spoke of.
An hour later, an ordinary car stopped at the pawnshop door, the driver was an old man wearing brown linen clothes, his hair was half a hundred years old, and obviously he was quite old.
“Master, Tsinghua City branch has arrived,” the old man got off the car and lifted the curtain and said respectfully.
The shopkeeper standing before the door was already aware of this. He also hurriedly stepped forward, slightly bowing, and when he saw a middle-aged man dressed in purple brocade clothes coming out of the car, he hurriedly shouted: "Ssinghua City Branch Shopkeeper, Chen you have met Boss Wu."
"Oh, Shopkeeper Chen, I made you wait a long time. There are many people in this city, so the train will be a bit slow to arrive," Boss Wu said with a faint smile.
"Boss Wu is here. It's worth waiting as long as you want" Chen Guigong said.
Boss Wu just smiled and walked over to the pawnshop without saying anything.
Chen Gui hurriedly led the way towards the back hall. After Boss Wu sat on top, Chen Gui hurriedly reported everything at a semicolon.
"Yes, even though this branch of Huaqing City has only opened, it makes a lot of money every month. I think in another year and a half, this will be comparable to some distant semicolon. "Bos Wu clicked He nodded.
Seeing Boss Wu nod, a stone fell from Chen Gui's heart. Although Boss Wu looked friendly now, he knew that Boss Wu would change his face when he changed his mind. Especially if the business in the semicolon cannot satisfy him, it is better to fire him. If it were worse, he could have lost his life. .Store it. Of course the risks are high and the profits are also high, as long as I as a store owner do a good job, I can earn a lot of money every year. When compared to peers, then my income is at least ten times the income of the same store owner.
"Boss Wu, recently, some treasures were found in the semicolon," Chen Guigong said.
"Boss Wu, you don't dare to break the rules. Of course you will be tricked," Chen Gui said hurriedly. Of course he did not dare to fool Boss Wu with some fake things. After all, if they were to be deceived, those gentlemen would still do so after they had the money. Come and redeem, it's a pawnshop rule. Of course if there is no pawn, it is the same as selling it to a pawnshop, and there is no reason to make up for it.
“Then let's see!” Boss Wu naturally understood what Chen Gui meant. He just said it was a good treasure, but in terms of its value, I worry it is more than just good. After all, from his own point of view, ordinary treasures could not be seen by him, and Chen Gui had to know about them as well.
Chen Gui clapped his hands, and the maid hurriedly advanced with three brocade boxes in her hands.After putting the brocade box on the table, she retreated.
“Bos Wu, please see, this first part is a glass-lined jade statue with nine galloping horses.” Opening the brocade box, Chen Gui took out a jade statue with nine galloping horses.
"Well, this jade was considered to be of the highest quality, and the engraving workmanship also came from the hands of an expert. I fear that it is worth no less than three thousand taels of silver. How much do you get?" Boss Wu asked.
“When I returned to Boss Wu, this small one only cost five hundred taels.” Chen Gui knew that Boss Wu did not like this treasure.
"Yes, you can buy something worth three thousand taels with five hundred taels of silver. You have a good idea," Boss Wu said with a smile.
"Boss Wu, I must have acted according to the rules. I never bought or sold forcibly. It's just that the original owner of this jade statue went through a family crisis and continued to use money, which gave me an advantage." Chen Gui hurriedly explained.
"I didn't mean that. You did a good job at this. What are the other two? "Bos Wu kept asking.
Chen Gui did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly took out a second treasure.
"Golden jade stone and coral! It's very rare. I did not expect this little Huaqing City would have such a huge treasure, but I underestimated it. "Bos Wu glanced at him and said calmly.
Chen Gui's heart skipped a beat, he felt his vision was not low, but he did not expect that Boss Wu's vision was beyond his imagination. Both of these things were completely beyond his comprehension.
Thinking of this, he could only put his hopes on the latter.
“Bos Wu, I almost missed this last item, but then I accidentally discovered that it was unusual,” Chen Gui said.
"If there's such a thing, I'm quite approving of your vision. Have you ever made a mistake? "These words aroused Boss Wu's interest. After all, all the shopkeepers of 'Tianlin' Pawnshop' were treasure appraisals experts. , otherwise he wouldn't have been recruited to be a semicolon shopkeeper This is the number one pawnshop in the world.
“This is his jade ring!” Chen Gui carefully took out a green-white jade ring from the brocade box and said.
After Boss Wu took it from Chen Gui, he placed the jade ring before his eyes and looked at it, he frowned slightly and said softly: "This jade ring seems to be very ordinary."
“Hah?” Boss Wu suddenly said in surprise.
Hearing Boss Wu's surprised voice, Chen Gui knew that he must have made a great contribution this time around. It seemed that this treasure could finally fall into Boss Wu's eyes. From now on, he would have a greater chance of being moved to a larger place.
