My years in the pawnshop appraising treasures

This is the elixir that those practitioners who have practiced Dao and martial arts will take to increase their cultivation strength.

But that doesn't mean that ordinary people can't use it.

A nourishing essence pill, nourishing vitality, strengthening the blood, can make ordinary people cleanse the essence and cut the marrow, and greatly increase the essence and spirit.

"The psychic treasures, identify treasures, get rewards..."

Chen Shaojun was overjoyed. He didn't know where he was, but he was lucky enough to have his own golden finger.

Although it is still unclear, how does this psychic treasure mirror integrate into his body?What is it?Is it really possible to get rewards by constantly identifying treasures?

But at least one thing he understood.

That is, with this psychic treasure in his body, it should be enough to allow him to occupy more advantages than others in this turbulent world, and even settle down and soar into the sky.

"but.

There are really ghosts in this world..."

He thought of the wandering soul of Changbian Qingyu he had seen from the psychic treasures.

Before, he only heard about it, but now he has seen it with his own eyes.

Let him be more vigilant about this world.

Then, Chen Shaojun glanced at the crystal clear Yangyuan Dan in his hand, and a strong desire arose in his heart.

Without hesitation, he swallowed it.

The medicinal pill melted in the mouth, and in an instant there was a cool and special power, like turbulent water, pouring into his body, attached to his bones and flesh, and slowly infiltrating into it.

"hiss……"

Chen Shaojun sucked in a breath of cold air, feeling a kind of heat and a special kind of coolness, which was produced in his body.

The alternation of hot and cold actually caused him to have a feeling that his flesh and blood were being forged and his bones were being washed away.

Layers of fine dirt were also expelled from his body as he was forged and washed.

An hour later.

Chen Shaojun opened his eyes and felt that his state at this time was unprecedentedly good.

Not only was the spirit consumed by the 'God's Hope' technique restored, it was even more vigorous than before.

Gently squeezed his fist, there was a crisp sound, and he could clearly feel that his strength had more than doubled.

"It is indeed the elixir used by Daoist practitioners to improve their cultivation."

Chen Shaojun was overjoyed, even if he smelled something fishy on his body, he didn't care.

Pawnshop Chao Feng Jianbao, anything can happen, evil spirits, ghost spirits, yin spirits... Any 'raw material' may have things, and every appearance will make Chao Feng apprentices embarrassed, a little fishy, No one would suspect anything at all.

What he cares more about is the psychic treasure.

Identify treasures and get rewards.

A jade pendant of the low rank of ordinary rank allows him to obtain the Yang Yuan Dan, which is only used by Taoist cultivators.

What if it was a mid-level mortal, a high-level mortal, or even a treasure-level spirit?

He can't wait to identify a few more treasures.

As for the original idea of ​​switching to another industry to make a living?

He felt that he was an ordinary person who came from a peaceful and prosperous age, and had not yet learned to survive in this world.

Outside, there are strong Daoist martial artists, and demons and monsters running rampant. Where can there be safety in the Lin's pawnshop in Shengjing City?Gathering countless top masters of the Great Zhou Dynasty, officers and soldiers patrolling the streets from time to time, and being able to get rewards by constantly appraising items, it is a treasure that is tailor-made for oneself.

He was reluctant to leave.

Treasure identification must be done well, and this sapphire must be sent to the warehouse for registration as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Chen Shaojun stood up and walked out of the room with Qingyu.

Turning his head to look above the room, it says 'No. [-] Appraisal Room'.

Lined up all the way, there are ten identical rooms, all of which were specially handed over to their apprentices by the Lin's pawnshop to appraise the items.

Of course, the official court has an unusual status and is naturally not here. Not only is the room much spacious, but there are also special configurations. Some configurations are said to be very useful for identifying treasures and preventing possible crises.

Chen Shaojun followed the corridor and quickly came to a side hall.

There are a few people working in the side hall. Apart from a few handymen and apprentices, the most important ones are the ticket desk Mr. Shen Lang, who is in charge of filling out the pawn ticket and pawn book registration, and is responsible for the parcel and custody of the collateral. Xu Hongtao, a dismantler marked by bamboo rafts.

Both of them looked like middle-aged people. Among them, Shen Lang dressed as a scholar. In fact, he was also a scholar who failed in the scientific examination. It was only after three exams that he managed to become a scholar.

Xu Hongtao is much more robust. I heard that he was in a gang in his early years and has some martial arts skills.

"Mr. Shen, Uncle Xu."

Chen Shaojun greeted him.

In the pawnshop, the ranks are strict, and he is a court apprentice who has not yet graduated, and his status is naturally no better than that of two old people.

Not to mention, most of the 'raw materials' identified by Chaofeng's apprentices have actually passed through the hands of two people.

Although the 'raw materials' were picked out by several official court servants in the pawnshop, these two were generally the ones who handed the 'raw materials' to the apprentices of the court servants.

The two have been in the pawn shop for many years. If they accidentally offend, it is difficult to say how difficult and dangerous it is to obtain the 'raw material' for identification.

"Identified?"

Shen Lang nodded and asked casually.

"Yes, the sapphire produced in Dianyang is of medium and low grade. It has been formed for more than [-] years, and its craftsmanship is medium to high."

Chen Shaojun offered the sapphire, hesitated for a while, and did not disclose all the information about the sapphire that he had seen in Tongling Baojian, let alone mentioning that the sapphire had been invaded by yin energy for 30 years and had a certain effect of gathering yin.

These are not what he can identify as a court apprentice.

He just wants to make a living here, to appraise treasures step by step to get rewards, but he doesn't want to take too much.

in this world.

Low-key is not necessarily safe, but if it is too high-profile, you will die quickly.

Especially when he doesn't have the strength.

……

Chapter 3 Two Directions of Practice

"good."

Shen Lang wrote the record and wrote down the identification results, while Xu Hongtao on the side took out a wooden box, sealed the sapphire in it, marked it with a label, and handed a bamboo stick to Chen Shaojun.

"Thank you, Uncle Xu!"

Thank you Chen Shaojun.

This bamboo stick is actually equivalent to a kind of lottery for port porters. At the end of each month, you can use this lottery to receive monthly wages.

Although Chen Shaojun signed a deed of sale, he was only an apprentice of the court, but he could also receive wages every month, based on the lottery obtained after the identification of the item.

Although it is not much, each signing only adds up to [-] coins.

After a month, even one a day, it would only be [-] yuan, less than a tael of silver.

Then, he turned around and walked towards the backyard.

While turning around, he couldn't help but look towards the side hall, an arch.

There, connected to the hall, is also where Lin's pawnshop's shop is located. There is a pawnshop high platform, which blocks his sight, and in a certain sense, seals him in the pawnshop.

Even if the pawn shop does not restrict their travel, the Lin's pawn shop has a high wall in the front and back of the shop, and it is forbidden to go out. People in the pawn shop can only go through the front door if they want to go out.

As a pawnshop, someone who may come into contact with the pawned items must report to the shopkeeper when they go out. They also need to go through body searches, equipment inspections, and inquiries... The inquirer is dignified, and the body searcher is rude, unless it is necessary. , Seriously, no one wants to go out easily.

In Chen Shaojun's memory, his predecessor had not been out for three months.

……

The backyard of the pawnshop is very spacious, a bit like a courtyard, with a large flat area surrounded by rooms, large and small.

Chen Shaojun walked into one of the rooms, and he saw a large shop, which was directly connected from the head of the wall to the end of the wall, and there were several closets placed on the edge of the bed, making it difficult for people to move.

Here is his residence.

There are twelve beds, one is connected to the other, and now there are seven people including him, all of whom are apprentices in the pawnshop.

At this time, several Chaofeng apprentices came back one step ahead and were getting together.

"Brother Chen, you're back, is there anything wrong?"

Seeing Chen Shaojun coming back, one of the little men quickly approached and asked with concern.

"It's all right."

Chen Shaojun shook his head and recognized that the person was named Zhao Hu. He had only barely met him before. They were both in the Lin family's old house. Half a year ago, they were arranged to enter the Lin's pawn shop together, and they became familiar with him.

The other few were actually working in the Lin family before, either as chores or as servants, but they were not familiar with them before.

At this time, one by one, their spirits were very lethargic, as if they had not slept for three days and three nights. Either their eyes were red and their expressions were excited, or their faces were gray, their eye bags were as black as charcoal, and they looked very tired.

From this, it can also be seen that the consumption of the technique of divine hope is huge.

If Chen Shaojun hadn't swallowed the Yang Yuan Dan, washed the essence and cut the marrow, replenished the qi and nourished the spirit, and greatly increased the strength of the spirit, qi and spirit, it is estimated that he would not be much better than them.

"Brother Chen, have you heard that Zhang Wang had an accident today?"

Zhao Hu leaned over with a mysterious and nervous look on his face.

"problem occurs?"

Chen Shaojun was stunned for a moment, and he had some guesses in his heart.

"When Zhang Wang was appraising the treasure this time, he was infected with evil energy, and when he was carried out, he was about to die."

Zhao Hu didn't sell off, he said directly.

"Zhang Wang, don't think he's arrogant at ordinary times, but he is indeed the strongest among us, the one with the strongest 'Shenwang' method, and now even he has an accident, then we..."

One's tired face was full of worry and even a little bit of fear.

People taboo three longs and two shorts, incense taboos two shorts and one long, and pawnshops are most taboo when they encounter accidents when they are appraising treasures.

Because of any accident, their lives may be endangered.

Not to mention, each of them had personally experienced the scene of the previous five Chaofeng apprentices falling.

No one wants to be one of them.

"The 'raw materials' this time are indeed somewhat different, most of them are old materials.

It is said that the older the material, the more evil it is. No one knows what happened to these old materials before they were delivered to us.

In fact, when I was appraising the treasure, I also vaguely felt an evil spirit rushing out, but fortunately it was not strong, I only felt that my head was dizzy and it recovered..."

A somewhat tall apprentice of Chao Feng also said, with some lingering fears.

Chen Shaojun couldn't help but glance at him, and there was a murmur in his heart.

He has always been suspicious of his predecessor's death.

When I think of the pictures revealed in the psychic treasures when I appraise my own treasures, it is inevitable that I will think more.

"I don't know if you can remember, Zhang Wang contradicted Mr. Shen before?"

Suddenly, someone spoke.

The expressions of the others changed suddenly.

"You mean..."

"Be careful!"

"Things without basis are not allowed to talk nonsense."

The sensitive person hurriedly drank to stop it.

But there was a haze in everyone's heart.

A lot of things don't require proof at all.

Even though this batch of raw materials has been officially selected by the court, most of the dangerous objects have been eliminated, but it is Shen Lang who has arranged the appraisal after all.
