Spirit Stone Hunter
Chapter 2 Lingshi Market
In the past, Ying Feng seldom talked when eating.But since becoming roommates with Ma Xiaotian, many of his living habits have been changed.
For example, Ma Xiaotian would tell him what happened at school today during meals.He would treat other people's malicious words about him as a joke to Ying Feng, and he would laugh at himself and express that what they said might actually make sense, and then he would laugh out loud.For another example, when I was at home before, my brother would never tell me that there is something wrong with not talking, laughing or not liking to communicate with others.But Ma Xiaotian will say something that may not be funny at all every day to make him change his expression.It also tells how necessary it is to communicate with people.
He knew it was the child's kindest way of trying to make himself happy.But sometimes, it's really not something he can laugh when he wants to.
Just like when Ma Xiaotian also had a frowning face.
After returning from the supermarket today, Ma Xiaotian was sitting on the sofa in the living room, with his legs crossed, holding his mobile phone and using the computer inside to carefully calculate how much money he had and how long it would last. "Sigh. If you spend so much all the time, what can you do with so little income?"
When there is no one around, Ma Xiaotian will vent his inner emotions by muttering alone.Insufficient money is his biggest worry, which will make him feel uneasy and also make him a little confused about the future.After all, besides the savings left by his parents and the subsidies from the welfare institution, he only has Yingfeng's monthly rent.Daily expenses plus various miscellaneous expenses for going to school, and the most important thing is the money to buy Lingshi, he has always been unable to make ends meet.He didn't know how long those deposits would last.His last bargaining chip is the house left by his parents, but this is his home, where he lives and lives, not to mention that the house here is not worth much, and it is not easy to sell.
"School will start soon, and the tuition and miscellaneous fees are another sum. I really don't want to spend money. Why can't I go to work. It's really annoying." After several calculations, there was no difference. He panicked and threw himself on the sofa , with a long sigh.
The time Ying Feng comes back every day is not too fixed, but it is basically the same as eight in the morning and five in the morning.Because Ying Feng's rank is not high, and he has just grown up, he won't be able to find a job as a high-priced hunter or bodyguard.What he does most is hunting some low-level exotic beasts, and also works as a bodyguard for some short-distance travellers.Today is a short-distance bodyguard, so I came back early, and I saw Ma Xiaotian lying on the sofa before arriving home and sighing.
He understands Ma Xiaotian's temper very well. Normally, at times like this, it must be related to money.This kid is good at everything, but he is very serious about money.But yes, both parents died, there is not much inheritance, and I still have to go to school, and I have a lack of spiritual power. The worst thing is that I can't work when I am under 20 years old.In fact, this is one of the main reasons why he never moved away.This optimistic child is really difficult, and I am always better than him. "You start school next Monday, is everything ready?"
Ma Xiaotian sat up: "There is nothing to prepare. Anyway, I don't live on campus. But you came back so early today, I haven't cooked yet."
"I took a mission today. It's not too complicated, so I'm back. It's still early, so accompany me to the Lingshi Market. It's about the same time."
Ma Xiaotian looked at the date on the electronic clock on the wall, and sighed: "When is the boss! Wait for me to get dressed!"
In this world, almost everything that was regarded as jewelry in the previous life has its own unique function, and they are also called spirit stones.The way to distinguish these spirit stones is not only the amount of spiritual power contained, but also the type and color.
Emerald belongs to the fourth-level spirit stone, which is one of the high-level spirit stones.The spiritual power contained in it is much more than other grades of spiritual stones.But not everyone called emerald can be called a fourth-level spirit stone.It is also divided into several levels.But no matter what grade of jadeite it is, it is worth a lot.It is definitely not what Ying Feng and Ma Xiaotian can get.
There is also a class of fourth-level spirit stones that are relatively rare.Such as diamonds, emeralds, aquamarine and so on.But they are different from other spirit stones in that the energy contained in them is not aimed at the human body.So basically ordinary people will not be interested in these, even if they are really beautiful, they are even more precious and rare.
The third-level spirit stones are collectively referred to as colored stones.It contains many different kinds.All kinds of nephrite and corundum including lapis lazuli, turquoise, etc. are counted as colored stones.But prices also vary.It all depends on how fine it is.The better the texture, the less impurities there are and the more spiritual power it contains.Prices vary, of course.
The general name of the second-level spirit stone is Caijing.Like agate, chalcedony, crystal, etc., these also have their own classification systems.
The first-level spirit stones are more complicated, but one of them is the most special kind, which is amber.In fact, more than 1000 years ago, amber was not regarded as a spiritual stone in this world.Only when people later discovered that it contains a kind of spiritual power that can directly supplement the vital elements of the human body, this organic gemstone is gradually recognized as a kind of spiritual stone.
The lowest level of spirit stones is called miscellaneous stones. Compared with the first four levels, their classification is not so uniform.In this world, there are many objects that contain spiritual power, so it is difficult to define what kind of ores or fossils these are, and they are unified into low-level spiritual stones.
There are actually very few patients with spiritual power deficiency like Ying Feng and Ma Xiaotian, almost one in [-].But even so, there are dozens of them in each city, and perhaps hundreds more, so the total number of people is not too small.And the degree of lack of these people is different, and the level of spirit stones they need is also very different.What Ma Xiaotian needs is not too high, but low-level spirit stones are definitely not enough. Almost no people with spiritual power deficiency can use the lowest-level spirit stones to supplement themselves. He has been buying first-level spirit stones for so many years , of which amber is the most abundant.One yuan per month, the price is already very difficult for him.But Ying Feng used third-level spirit stones since he was a child, and the price was very expensive for them, so after Ying Feng ran out, the money he earned could only buy second-level spirit stones.And he bought the most agate.
Lingshi Market is the busiest in every city.
The Hexi City they lived in was on the west bank of the Yintian River.Cities belong to the second tier, but the population is relatively dense, so the market is particularly noisy.
There are generally five areas in the Lingshi market, but ordinary people can only enter the first three.They are the stall area, the rough stone area, the finished product area and the boutique area.And the last one is a dark area that ordinary people can't play.It is said that the auction house inside is completely different from the auction in the ordinary auction area.But because they are all places where rich people go, people like Ying Feng and Ma Xiaotian don't even know what's inside.Didn't even think about it.
Just like the world once was.The unit price of rough stones without seeing the essence is cheaper than finished products and boutiques.So buying rough stones is also called gambling stones here.Since there is gambling, there are winners and losers.But not all of these spirit stones have the same gambling nature.Especially the fourth-level Lingshi Jade has the biggest win or loss.
Both Ying Feng and Ma Xiaotian will buy finished products.None of them are spirit beings, and they have no sense of spiritual sense to spirit stones.They didn't have that much money in the first place, so they didn't dare to gamble with their own money.So every time they came, they went directly to the finished product area, and never thought about going to see the rough stone.
According to the usual practice, Ma Xiaotian first accompanied Ying Feng to pick out a piece of white and green agate.The light green stripes are like ribbons floating on the white background.Agate is translucent, and the light transmission is quite good.The shape can be regarded as regular, it is a river mill seed, as round as an egg, Ma Xiaotian took a fancy to it at a glance.That's why Ying Feng was encouraged to ask about its price.
The store owner already knew the two brothers.I also sympathize with the two teenagers who have this haunting disease.So he didn't actually earn much more from this agate. After the eight thousand four deal, he also gave away a small piece of blood-red agate less than two centimeters.
Spirit stones of this size are not very valuable except for the special level four spirit stones.So the boss didn't feel much distress when he sent it.But when Ma Xiaotian saw this agate, his eyes lit up.The size, clarity, transparency, and color are perfect rings!And this color, whether it is gold or silver ring setting will be very commensurate.
It can be seen that Ma Xiaotian likes this small piece of agate.Ying Feng handed him the small stone: "If you like it so much, I'll give it to you. This one is enough for me."
Ma Xiaotian is also welcome.I took it and put it in the palm of my hand and looked at it carefully for a while. "Maybe this one can be sold for a little more expensive."
Ying Feng didn't understand. "ah?"
Ma Xiaotian looked up at him: "Hehe. You will know when I make it." Anyway, over the years, he has sold those DIY waste stone jewelry online, and the rings are really the best sellers.
Ma Xiaotian spent [-] yuan to buy a piece of golden blue amber that only weighed [-] grams.Slightly more expensive than what he bought before.However, the clarity of this piece of golden amber is particularly high, with only two slight skin cracks, and two black inclusions the size of small grains inside.The spiritual power inside could allow Ma Xiaotian to cope with it for more than two months.He is also willing to go all out.Because this piece of amber looks like a gourd, he planned to carve it after absorbing the light.His carving skills are not good at all, so he can only do this simple transformation.
The money was spent.The meat is also sore.The two brothers started walking back.While walking, while chatting.In fact, it was Ma Xiaotian who was talking, and Ying Feng occasionally responded with a few words.But the atmosphere between the two of them is very good.
"Xiaofeng, let's eat chicken pot tonight. Like last time, save some money." With so much money out of his pocket, Ma Xiaotian is now in severe pain.So I started to think of ways to save myself more.Ying Feng is from Quebec and likes more meat.In fact, he also likes it himself, but the money is too little, and some vegetables are cheaper, after all, they are all grown on a large scale.In addition, purple mushrooms are really cheap, and he also likes to eat them very much.He has already made plans to eat purple mushroom chicken pot.
Ying Feng has never been picky about food, not to mention that Ma Xiaotian is very good at cooking, better than his senior brother.Recalling the chicken pot last time, he nodded immediately. "As long as you like it. I don't choose. But don't save meat, I will go hunting. I can't hunt other things, and some low-level beasts are still easy to get."
Ma Xiaotian smiled: "Yes!"
At this moment, a person suddenly rushed out of the original stone area, and bumped into Ma Xiaotian who was about to continue talking.It doesn't matter if the other party is tall and big, but Ma Xiaotian staggered and almost fell down. If Ying Feng hadn't reacted quickly enough, Ma Xiaotian would definitely have come here.
The guy who hit people was also taken aback.But then I saw that Ma Xiaotian's small arms and legs looked like a child, and the little Quebec next to him was also much thinner than ordinary Quebecs.He took it out on them right then and there. "Little brat! Can't look at the road when you go out?!"
After Ma Xiaotian stood firm, he didn't think about it at first, and he didn't care if he was bumped into a crowded place.But this person actually hit back.Although Ma Xiaotian is very easy-going, he occasionally laughs at himself and doesn't take other people's ridicule to heart.But he is also an unforgiving man. "That's right! It's true that the little bastard bumps into people because he doesn't know how to look at the road when he goes out!"
The other party rolled his eyes in choking, just now he was looked down upon by a strong man, but now even a brat dares to treat him like this.He clenched his fists.
Didn't wait for this person to get angry.There is another man behind him.Maybe it was because of the backlight, Ma Xiaotian didn't see the man's face clearly at first glance.He just could feel that this man was tall and had broad shoulders.
Although there was, the man's deep voice sounded in his ears: "If you don't want to be disabled, get out!"
For example, Ma Xiaotian would tell him what happened at school today during meals.He would treat other people's malicious words about him as a joke to Ying Feng, and he would laugh at himself and express that what they said might actually make sense, and then he would laugh out loud.For another example, when I was at home before, my brother would never tell me that there is something wrong with not talking, laughing or not liking to communicate with others.But Ma Xiaotian will say something that may not be funny at all every day to make him change his expression.It also tells how necessary it is to communicate with people.
