Chapter 137

Chapter 137. Chopstick Vase, Chopstick Stopper and Slag Bucket
This sudden change happened suddenly, and everyone was shocked.

On the contrary, Jiang Jinwen spread his hands and looked helpless:
"It's all because Miss Su and Mr. Su made a sudden noise, which made me jump. It's a pity."

Su Rui was shocked and angry:
"That's it with just one word of pity? Do you think it's your chamber pot you want to smash?"

Su Minghan was just suspicious at first, but when he saw the expressions of Jiang and his son, he was even more convinced that they did it on purpose, so he couldn't help but lower his tone:

"President Jiang? What does this mean?"

"Nothing? It's just a gadget. The young man accidentally broke it with his hands and feet. What's the big deal?"

"It's that simple?"

"Hehe, you still have to pay for the compensation. Mr. Su can just say what the price is."

"380."

"Okay, I will pay 380 million yuan!"

Jiang Rui did not hesitate.

Su Minghan was stunned. 380 million was not a small amount, but he was so happy?The only explanation is that the other party thinks they have won, so they don't feel bad about paying this price, and they might have a back-up plan!
"Okay, it's just one thing, I can't afford to lose it in Hanhaixing, Ren Ping, just go and get three back."

"Wait!" Jiang Rui suddenly interrupted.

"What? Mr. Jiang still has something to say?"

"Why did Mr. Su forget? We haven't finished picking out the three items here yet?"

Jiang Rui said with a smile on his face.

As a result, even Su Minghan couldn't help but be angry. Jiang Jinwen had already picked two items just now, and he deliberately smashed the third item by mistake. It was fine that he didn't pursue it, and now he actually wanted to pick another one.

Doesn’t this mean that in the first stage, if your side takes the lead, you will lose four things?

Scholars can't bear the ripeness!
"Jiang, don't go too far. If you want to compare, just compare them openly. What kind of skills are you playing with these little tricks!"

"Haha, Mr. Su is thinking too much, we are just following the rules,"

Jiang Rui made it clear that I am shameless and what can you do to me? He pointed at Tu Wenxiao and others:

"Teacher Tu also said just now that in the first part, both parties need to choose three items, which is to compare the value and be reserved for the next two parts. We can't just pick two, right?"

"That's right, we will still compensate you for 380 million. Just pretend that you didn't bring this item and let me pick another one. Isn't it so easy to admit defeat if Dangdang Hanhaixing has just one less item?"

Jiang Jinwen sang the opposite stage with Jiang Rui at the right time, obviously the father and son had discussed it just now.

At this time, Tu Wenxiao and others were also discussing in low voices to see how to ensure fairness without violating the rules of the competition.

Su Rui stared and lowered his head in a daze, as if distracted Ren Ping:
"Hey! Are you mute? They are going to use our heads as a toilet!"

"Gong Tong? Doesn't this belong to the category of catering?"

Ren Ping replied incoherently, which only made Su Rui roll his eyes in anger, almost fainting, and then angrily ignored him.

Ren Ping came back to his senses a little bit, and smiled:
"Everyone, I have an idea."

"Oh? Mr. Ren, please speak."

"Mr. Jiang might as well take another one, make up the number of three, just ask me to take one more from them."

"Four versus three, this still doesn't seem fair."

"Don't worry, the extra item I took has nothing to do with the three links. It's just that Mr. Jiang and the others didn't bring it."

When all the scholars heard this, they nodded, thinking that this was a compromise, and it was better than deliberately damaging it like Jiang and his son did. They were quite dissatisfied after reading it.

After obtaining the consent of Jiang's father and son, the competition continued. Jiang Jinwen hesitated for a while, and then quickly picked something from the table.

However, this thing was shocking. Everyone present couldn't laugh or cry. Even Jiang Rui's face was extremely ugly. It seemed that he had not discussed it carefully before.

Jiang Jinwen's face was red, but he had no choice but to put the three things he had picked out, a bottle, a wooden lacquerware, and something similar to a small stone sculpture on the table. Indicates please identify.

Tu Wenxiao saw that he was a little guilty, and asked:
"Why does Mr. Jiang like these three things, can you tell me?"

"This, like this vase..."

"What? Vase?"

When the scholars heard this, they were stunned and glanced at the first thing. They never expected that the dignified Young Master of the Ninth Five-Year Palace would not even recognize this object. They couldn't help but look at Jiang Rui.

Seeing that the latter had a calm expression, he didn't take it seriously, so he turned to Ren Ping:
"Mr. Ren, you should introduce yourself."

Ren Ping nodded and stood up:

"This object is called chopsticks vase, chopsticks means chopsticks, and chopsticks vase is the container used by the ancients to hold chopsticks, just like our current chopsticks basket,"

"Mr. Jiang said just now that this is a vase. Well, it seems that he thought that Song people also like to arrange flowers for entertainment at the dining table. It's really fun to appreciate them while having a feast."

The words were spoken seriously, but in fact anyone could hear the sarcasm in them.

As Ren Ping said, chopstick vase is a container for holding chopsticks in ancient times. It is not uncommon. Even though the shape is similar to that of a vase, the carvings and decorations on the vase are very different. Moreover, it has long been classified as a dining utensil.

Jiang Jinwen didn't even have this kind of vision, so it can be said that he exposed his own details as soon as he came up.

"What about this thing?"

Tu Wenxiao pointed to the second wooden lacquerware with a wide opening.

Jiang Jinwen was stunned, seeing that the size of the object was not high, and the abdomen was extremely deep and bulging, like a spittoon, thinking that the ancients would always use the spittoon to rinse their mouths after meals, so he nodded:
"It should be a spittoon."

"What? Spittoon?"

Tu Wenxiao and the others were surprised again, all of them had big mouths.

Ren Ping laughed:
"No wonder Mr. Jiang admitted his mistake. This object is somewhat similar to a spittoon, and even has the same purpose. May Mr. Jiang guess again?"

"If it wasn't a spittoon, could it be night..."

Jiang Jinwen said that he didn't even believe it, so he quickly swallowed the word "pot" below.

"Haha! Of course it's not a chamber pot, but a scum bucket, which is used to hold meat, bones, fishbone and other scum on the dining table. Young Master Jiang can always guess this step, so he barely guessed it!"

Jiang Jinwen's face turned red and he glared at Ren Ping fiercely.

Tu Wenxiao and others had long since become impatient. Before, they thought that even if the Ninth Five-Year Palace acted a little flamboyantly, they would always have a foundation in the culture of the Song Dynasty. However, unexpectedly, those foundations were only in hardware, not software.

Seeing Jiang Jinwen acting so ugly, not only is he ashamed, but it is also embarrassing for so many of his own people to compete with him in such a big way!

"So, Mr. Jiang can't even recognize the third thing?"

Tu Wenxiao sighed, and without looking at Ren Ping, he directly took the third small stone sculpture with the length of his index finger in his hand:

"This thing is called Zhizhi, which is what the ancients used to place chopsticks to prevent them from touching the dining table. Just now, Mr. Jiang chose this thing without looking at it carefully. He must have seen it as a sculpture and thought it had some origins? "

"Actually, this object is really common. Among the utensils on the table prepared by Mr. Ren, it is the most mediocre, and the price is only a few thousand yuan."

"What? Only a few thousand yuan?"

Jiang Jinwen couldn't help frowning when he heard that, just now he was really judging by appearance, unexpectedly he fell into a big stumble.

Tu Wenxiao shook his head, extremely disappointed:
"Mr. Jiang doesn't even know the origin of these things. I don't think there's any need to compare in the first part, just..."

"Wait a minute! Teacher Tu, I just said that the value of the things you pick is used to judge the quality, but you didn't say that you must know its origins!"

Jiang Rui on the side suddenly interjected.

All the scholars were startled when they heard this, thinking that even though it was true, Jiang Jinwen's vision was clearly not as good as Ren Ping's.

No, it's not that it's not inferior, it's that it's not on the same level at all. Could it be that what Ren Ping picked was inferior to him?
Just listen to Jiang Rui continue:
"Since the rules have been set, they must be implemented, otherwise we will not accept them."

"Yes, now it's his turn to choose. Whether he is really discerning or a bluff, you will know at a glance!"

Jiang Jinwen followed closely.

Tu Wenxiao looked at Ren Ping, but Ren Ping didn't answer, he got up and walked to the opposite table, and picked three things back after a while.

According to the agreement just now, although there is another choice, but it will not participate in the competition, it will be put aside.

Everyone thought that with his sharp eyesight, he would be able to surpass Jiang Jinwen and win easily. Unexpectedly, when they took a closer look, they were so surprised that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.

I saw that what Ren Ping picked up was not any utensils at all, but three pairs of chopsticks. Looking at the ones on the other side, they were also chopsticks.

A total of four pairs of chopsticks!
With these four pairs of chopsticks, do you want to outdo each other?
"Ren Ping, are you crazy? Where's the main dish? There's also chopsticks vase and slag bucket, these are all necessary!"

Su Rui couldn't help but screamed first.

Not only him, but the rest of the people also thought that since the other party took away their only main dish, chopsticks bottle, slag bucket, etc., he should at least take it back accordingly, otherwise, regardless of the first level, what happens to the subsequent links manage?
Tu Wenxiao and others were puzzled and looked at Ren Ping:

"Mr. Ren, are you giving up on this level?"

"It's not that I want to give up. You will know just by looking over there."

As he spoke, he pointed to the utensils in front of Jiang's father and son.

Everyone looked at it together, and the more they looked, the more they frowned. They didn't distinguish it carefully just now, but now they realized that although there were many utensils prepared by the Ninth Five-Year Palace, there were no main dishes, and they were all fine tableware such as dishes.

Not only that, but apart from what was brought back from Ren Ping, there was no chopstick bottle, slag bucket, etc., which meant that Ren Ping had nothing to take back, and he couldn't get back the corresponding things at all.

This move was too cruel, it had obviously been planned in advance, and Ren Ping's advantage of attacking later turned into a disadvantage.

As a result, the link that was supposed to be a test of the eyesight of the two sides has completely changed and turned into a conspiracy. This is something that even the scholars did not expect!

"Mr. Jiang, you have violated the original intention of our competition by acting like this."

"No wonder you pretended to be generous just now and let Mr. Ren choose first. It turns out that you have already made arrangements."

"It's because we didn't think carefully when designing the competition, and let you drill this hole. Even if you win, it's not too bright."

At this time, some scholars were so angry that they couldn't help but criticize.

Jiang Rui laughed loudly:
"Teachers, you are wrong. Since rules have been formulated, they should be implemented. In other words, as long as they are within the reasonable scope of the rules, victory is victory and defeat is defeat. How can there be so much emphasis on it?"

"Teachers, haven't you announced the results yet?"

The crowd remained silent.

Only Tu Wenxiao realized something was wrong, first glanced at Jiang Rui, and said coldly:
"This matter is very strange. Our competition rules are all new and have never been used before. However, Mr. Jiang and Mr. Jiang are so well prepared, as if they knew about it in advance. Could it be that someone tipped off the news?"

As he spoke, he scanned everyone on his side one by one:

"Who took advantage of others and did this kind of stuff, say!"
