pregnant woman legend

At a glance, Tang Qing frowned.He casually took a small knife that was only an inch long from his waist, and with a light scrape, a thin layer of skin was scraped off the bead.Then move closer to the light and take a closer look...

Tang Qing put away the knife, threw the two "Dongzhu" on the table expressionlessly, and said lightly: "Fake. The core is probably made of beeswax, and the surface is coated with a layer of dyed pearls Fake powder, the method of counterfeiting is not very clever, not only can’t be fake, but even one-tenth of the even luster of the real East Pearl can’t be imitated. People in the industry can tell it at a glance.”

Lin Yuan originally had a one-thousandth chance of luck, but now, after hearing this blunt and almost merciless words, the last trace of hope in his eyes disappeared, and he sat down on the chair with an ugly expression.

On the other hand, the little prince crossed his legs, shook his head comfortably, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, showing a look that really was the case, and a full-faced look.

Tang Qing ignored him, sat down in front of the young man, looked at him and said lightly: "What's going on, let's talk about it."

Lin Yuan tugged at his hair in distress, and after a long while he said listlessly: "This matter...will start from half a year ago."

Half a year ago, a middle-aged man with a capital accent welcomed a middle-aged man with a capital accent into Lin Yuan's shop.It happened that Lin Yuan was in the shop, so he went up to ask him what happened.

The man claimed to be surnamed Wang, and was in urgent need of a batch of high-quality silk and silk. The price was not a problem, so he asked him if he had any in stock.It happened that Lin Yuan had just bought a batch of silk, so he simply sold it all to this person.The man surnamed Wang was also straightforward. He was very satisfied after inspecting the goods, paid the money on the spot, and left with the goods.

Less than a month later, the businessman surnamed Wang came to the door again, and he brought a fellow surnamed Wu with him, who also wanted to buy silk.Although the quantity was a little less than last time, it was still very straightforward to clear money and goods on the spot.In this way, he pays timely and is a cheerful person, which quickly wins Lin Yuan's favor.

Later, the person surnamed Wang came less frequently, and most of the time it was the guy surnamed Wu who came to purchase goods.Lin Yuan inquired carefully, and only then did he know that the middle-aged man surnamed Wang was the head shopkeeper of the famous Jingshi Baolai Company's head office in the inner city.Last time, because a large amount of supplies suddenly came down from the palace, Baolai store needed to purchase them, and because of the huge quantity, the time was very tight, and it was too late to allocate goods from stores across the country. As a last resort, almost all the shopkeepers near the capital They all came out in full force, looking for sources of goods everywhere.And when shopkeeper Wang passed Shiliang City on his way back to Beijing, he happened to hear that Lin Yuan's Doujin shop had a good reputation for its high quality and low price, so he came to him.

Lin Yuan was very proud when he heard this.Although he lived in the small town of Shiliang, he had heard of the name of the Jingshi Baolai firm.Now that I can supply them, although the quantity is not large, I feel honored, and it seems that I am getting closer to my goal.

A few days ago, shopkeeper Wang suddenly sent a letter, saying that Baolai Company will import a batch of rare objects into the palace recently, including all kinds of jewelry, jade, and rare playthings. If Lin Yuan encounters some rare objects in the near future, he must do so in time Inform him.

Lin Yuan's shop mainly deals in cloth and miscellaneous goods, and he didn't dabble in these rare and valuable items, so he didn't take this letter to heart.Unexpectedly, a few days later, someone actually came to the door.

The man claimed to be a pearl fisherman in the North Sea. Because his hometown was hit by a plague and his wife and children died, he had no choice but to leave his hometown alone and travel long distances to come to Shiliang to join his relatives.Unexpectedly, after arriving here, I found out that the family of relatives had already moved away, and there was no news of them.At this time, the pearl divers were penniless and almost starved to death.In desperation, he had no choice but to pawn the only valuable thing on his body—a pair of top-quality Dadongzhu passed down from his ancestors.

Unexpectedly, the unscrupulous shopkeeper kept the price extremely low, and the pearl hunters were unwilling to accept it. He also heard about Lin Yuan's shop, saying that the owner was kind and famous, so he refused to be a shopkeeper. He only took these two pearls with him. The beads were found on the door, in order to try their luck, to see if Lin Yuan would buy it or not.

Hearing this, Lin Yuan felt pity in his heart, and wanted to help him.Thinking of Shopkeeper Wang's greeting again, he already had an idea in his heart.Lin Yuan first entertained the pearl fisherman for a good meal, and then he wanted to find a place to live for him, but he declined, saying that it would be good to temporarily take shelter in a ruined temple outside the city.Lin Yuan didn't force it, he just asked him to wait for a few days and give him news later.

Afterwards, Lin Yuan immediately wrote a book to shopkeeper Wang, describing the color and size of the pearls clearly, and said that the pearl divers charged a lot of money, 3 taels for each oriental pearl, and 6 taels of silver in total.

Lin Yuan waited for a few days, but he didn't expect that not only the handwritten letter from shopkeeper Wang, but also the guy surnamed Wu and a shriveled old man surnamed Feng arrived.Shopkeeper Wang seemed very happy in the letter, saying that the old man surnamed Feng was the second shopkeeper of Baolai Company, all these jewels and jades belonged to him, and the Dongzhu was extremely precious, so shopkeeper Feng came in person.

Lin Yuan hurriedly found the pearl fisherman and gave the Dongzhu to shopkeeper Feng.Old man Feng fell in love with it at first sight, and after seeing off the pearl divers, he bowed to Lin Yuan repeatedly in private, saying that Dongzhu of this quality can be sold for 10 taels per grain in the capital, which is rare. 3 taels of silver is already a very reasonable price for the orbs she asked for.He asked him again and again to take good care of the pearl diver. After he returned to Beijing, shopkeeper Wang would definitely come to buy the pearl with 6 taels of silver.

Unexpectedly, on the third morning after Shopkeeper Feng left, the pearl diver came to the door with an expression of excitement, saying that he had heard news about a distant relative, and wanted to kill Dongzhu immediately, and set off to find that relative.

When Lin Yuan heard this, he immediately felt troubled. There were several days' journey between Shiliang City and the capital, and the shopkeeper Feng probably hadn't returned to the capital yet.He asked the pearl divers to wait here for a few more days, but he couldn't wait even one more day; if he proposed to send the pearl divers to the Jingshi Baolai firm, the man was unwilling.Lin Yuan really had a headache because he couldn't get comfort in every possible way.

After arguing for a long time, neither of them could convince the other.At last the pearl diver got impatient, and said: "Little brother, why is this so troublesome, you might as well buy this Dongzhu first, and then hand it over to Shopkeeper Wang when he comes."

This oriental pearl is very valuable, Lin Yuan naturally refuses, besides he doesn't have that much silver.But the pearl diver immediately said: "If you are willing to buy these two Dongzhu, my brother, I will give you 5 taels, so that you can get another 1 taels after changing hands. You Okay, I’ve been taking care of you for the past few days, and I’m willing to give you 1 taels. If you think this is feasible, we’ll all be happy. If you still don’t want it, I won’t sell it. But I still have to be shy and talk to my little brother. Son, you can borrow some road money, I will go to seek refuge with relatives first, and I will definitely return it in the future."

Lin Yuan was a little moved after hearing this. 1 taels of silver is a bit more than the sum of the profits of his shop in the past two years, and this amount is enough to make him tempted.But he didn't have such money in hand, if he wanted to buy Dongzhu, he would have to borrow money everywhere.After weighing and thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't decide to pay attention, so he decided to reply to the pearl diver the next day.The man left in response.
