"Old rules, wear it with you, half a year or so will be able to eliminate the influence of the peach blossom calamity on you, but—"

Ao Bing handed the painted talisman to Yu Xuejun, his expression was still a little hard to describe,

"In the future, when dealing with people, you still need to be careful, otherwise, even if your love is ruined, there may be even more powerful butchers waiting for you later. When you fall in love, remember to use your brains!"

Yu Xuejun: ...

Yu Chengyang beside him shrugged his shoulders violently, trying not to laugh out loud, but still secretly gave Ao Bing a thumbs up.

It's really amazing, who dares to talk to his sister like that when he grows up?His sister is acting and stupid, but she still has a bad temper. If anyone choked and preached in person, her sister must have scratched her paws, but when she met Ao Bing, her sister didn't even dare to fart. Being a quail, is this the fabled one thing drop one thing?Sure enough, the ancients did not deceive me.

Yu Chengyang felt that if his sister made a fuss again in the future, he would just close the door and let her go... Well, anyway, he has found an effective way to control his sister.

Ao Bing glanced at Yu Chengyang, waved his hand and was about to see off the guests, he was too busy to open a shop at the flower, bird and fish market, and had no time to entertain these troublesome siblings.

Brother and sister Yu Chengyang happily took away the talisman paper, and they were quite happy, especially Yu Xuejun. She didn't like Ao Bing before, and felt that this boy was shabby and arrogant, which was very annoying, but after this incident, she really I feel scared, and I am convinced of Ao Bing, an expert. It's too late to hold my thigh, so how dare I dislike it?

Using a broken pickup truck to exchange the other party for a rescue and a talisman as a bonus, this deal is too cost-effective, even if the savior has a bit of a bad mouth, she can't tolerate it.

As soon as the Yu family siblings left, Ao Bing went directly to the flower, bird and fish market. Just as the store opened, a customer came outside, rushed over angrily, and asked him with a dark face why he didn't open the door yesterday.

Ao Bing sighed inwardly. Sure enough, opening a shop would mean fishing for three days and drying the net for two days. It would be too frustrating to keep the shop closed all the time. We should put the matter of recruiting shopkeepers on the agenda and solve their problems as soon as possible. The store is always closed.

The guest who came was the neighbor of the buyer who bought fish from the store the day before yesterday. His surname was Nie, and he was nearly seventy years old.

Old man Nie is a serious professional fish lover. After retiring, he played ornamental fish at home when he had nothing to do. He has been raising fish for many years. A few ornamental fishes immediately developed the problem of being a good teacher and pointing out others, and immediately he was going to pick and criticize the fish bought by his old friend.

It stands to reason that it is very difficult for a novice, especially a layman, to buy a good ornamental fish. It takes money to buy lessons and pay several tuition fees to learn well.

So after old man Nie got closer to the aquarium, he was ready to find out countless shortcomings of these fish, but when he was about to open his mouth when he was about to speak, he was surprised by the fish in the aquarium. shocked.

"This is... a five-flowered lion head?"

The five-flowered lion heads bought by the old man are short and have huge head tumors. The key point is that the patterns and patterns on the body of this fish are bright and bright. Scattered flowers are as charming and delicate, and these five-flowered lion heads are very healthy and lively. None of them are listless and huddled in the fish tank. They are all cruising around the fish tank, and occasionally Standing in front of the water tank wall and spitting bubbles to interact with people, it seems quite pleasing.

Such a fish, which aquarium lover is not rare?Old man Nie is not ignorant, he fell in love with these fish when he saw them, and he couldn't bear to look away. How could he remember that he was here to find fault?All he could think about was one thing, he wanted to know where the old man bought these fish.

Old man Nie felt that it must be those big fish shops or aquariums who could raise the five-flowered lion head so beautifully. Without decades of experience in fish farming, they would definitely not be able to produce such exquisite and high-end products, but who knows? When I asked, I heard the old man mention a little-known store name that he had never heard of.

"It's right next to the flower, bird and fish market in the city center. Walk about four to five hundred meters inside. The nameplate of the store says 'chasing fish'. The boss seems to be a young man. Anyway, he's quite young, in his early twenties at most." said the old man.

And what surprised Old Man Nie was that top-quality lion heads can sell for thousands of yuan each. Although these lion heads of the old man are not top-quality, they are at least considered to be of good quality in the eyes of Old Man Nie. At least it cost 400 yuan a tail, but the old neighbor told him that he bought these lion heads for 99 yuan, because he bought eight in one go, and finally the boss gave him one as an extra. .

99? !The price made old man Nie gasp at the time, and he wondered if he had heard it wrong.

After confirming again and again that the old neighbor was not joking, old man Nie himself had some doubts. Did he go shopping too little in the market recently, wondering if the five-flowered lion head has become so cheap?

Old man Nie quickly took a few photos of his old neighbor's aquarium with his mobile phone, and uploaded the photos to the daily chat group of an ornamental fish lovers association he joined.

Although his photography skills are not good, and the five-flowered lion head he took is a bit dull or even ghostly, but the texture and head tumors of the lion head inside can still be seen clearly, and there are immediately shoppers in the group. A netizen said that there are more than 200 to more than 400 fish of this quality in their store, and they have to be judged according to the color, personality and size of the fish, but in general, Old Man Nie’s own judgment is not wrong. The flower lion head will definitely not be so cheap that it will be double-digit or even give away an extra head.

Such a good-natured five-flowered lion head, how many 99 do you want?Old man Nie was not stupid, he immediately realized that there was a loophole to pick up, so after asking his old neighbor for the address of this shop, he didn't say much in the ornamental fish group, and returned home calmly. , He came to the Flower, Bird and Fish Market very anxiously the next morning.

But who knows, when he arrived at the flower, bird and fish market, he found the shop "Chasing Fish", but he was in vain. He guarded the street for several hours, and no one opened the shop until almost noon. I asked the clerk in the nearby shop, and they couldn't tell me clearly. They only said that the owner of this shop is still a college student. He usually doesn't have a fixed number of openings. He often opens in the afternoon, and sometimes he doesn't come in for a whole day.

The old man Nie felt depressed, and he sighed and sighed all afternoon after returning home. The next morning, he came back again, and saw a general iron guard guarding the shop door again. I bought a small horse on the road, and sat down in the shade not far from the door of the Zhuiyu shop and watched it.

Then, at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, I ran into Ao Bing who came late. Old man Nie, who had been waiting to pass, naturally bombarded Ao Bing as soon as he came up, with a grumpy tone and a rather unhappy tone.

Ao Bing is also very wronged, he was busy all day yesterday, first broadcast live, and then took people from the Maritime Bureau of the Cultural Relics Bureau to salvage the fishing boat at sea, and at night, he helped Yu Xuejun solve the two big troubles of Jin Lingyang and Taoist Jin Chan , from six o'clock in the morning to twelve o'clock in the evening, he was never idle for a moment.

But the old man was holding a Maza in his hand, indicating that he had been guarding outside the store in the morning, and this persistence had to convince Ao Bing. Sure enough, these strong, retired grandparents were not easy to mess with. It's better for him not to argue with the uncle, and let the uncle reprimand him honestly.

Uncle Nie was not down-to-earth in doing business since he was young, fishing for three days and drying the net for two days, nagging about how tenacious, hardworking and persistent they were when they were young. He talked a lot, and finally Ao Bing couldn't help it. , handed him a glass of water and asked him:

"Master, are you thirsty? Have a glass of water?"

Old man Nie glared at Ao Bing, gulped down a whole glass of water, his eyes finally fell on this small shop, and his eyes wandered around the aquariums placed in the room.

Except for the koi, the other species of ornamental fish in the chasing fish shop are actually not selling very well. There are only [-] five-flowered lion heads in total. After nine were sold the day before yesterday, only a few survived. .

Old man Nie originally wanted to buy five-flowered lion heads, but he soon discovered that this store does not only have five-flowered lion heads to pick up, basically from freshwater fish to seawater fish, as long as it is an aquarium in this store For the ones kept in it, none of the prices are correct.

Old man Nie didn't care about picking up the leaks now. He felt that he had to teach the young man in front of him another lesson. Before starting a business, he didn't have a good understanding of the commodity market in an industry, so he set the price of the commodity indiscriminately, and closed the business every three days. , Can such an attitude make money?

"Which family are you from? Who raised you, a fool like you, do your parents know that you are doing business? Are you doing charity, or are you running out of money, and come here to play games? "Old man Nie reprimanded Ao Bing angrily with his hips akimbo.

Ao Bing was a little confused: "Huh?"

"Ah what? Are you stupid? Did you buy these fish yourself? The cost is higher than your bid price. If you sell it like this, it will be closed after a few days. This butterfly tail goldfish is still red. Bai Lanshou, 58, you put the cabbage here for a big sale? And these angelfish and moonlight butterflies, your prices are all wrong, other stores are at least several times more expensive than yours, and you don’t go to other stores to see before opening the store Can you see what price people sell it for?"

Old man Nie blushed with anger, and his neck was so thick that he almost didn't blow his beard and stare because he didn't grow a beard.

Ao Bing looked at the fish in the store, and he also reacted belatedly. It seems that last time he secretly fed a little dragon gas to these fish in the store. After more than a week, these fish seem to be still alive It's a little bit different.

These fish change a little every day, and Jin Baozhu and Ao Bing often walk in the store and can't tell it, but customers who come to buy fish suddenly can find out directly and objectively that the fish in this store is different from the fish in other stores. What is the difference, such as body size, pattern color, personality, etc. The surprise in this may not be noticed by laymen, but as long as they are knowledgeable, they can see the difference at a glance.

For example, the uncle Nie in front of him, he criticized the price tags on all the aquarium tanks in the store one by one, and in the end Ao Bing was a little suspicious, whether this uncle came here to buy fish, or came here specifically instructive.

But to be honest, this uncle is so serious about other people's affairs, and his furious look makes Ao Bing really want to laugh, just, it's so cute.

Uncle Nie spit and spittle, and after a round of training, he realized belatedly that he had told the market prices of these fish, and if this kid knew the market prices, wouldn't his purpose of picking up the fish be dirty?

Old man Nie's expression froze immediately, his eyes fell on those aquarium tanks, he secretly regretted that he couldn't hold his breath, and wished he could slap himself a few times.

Why can't he control his occupational disease of being a nosy and a teacher? He has been retired for so many years and still can't control his mouth?

He glanced at Ao Bing cautiously, and smiled at the young man with some tentativeness and embarrassment:

"Well, boy, since I pointed out the price of these fish to you, which can save you a lot of losses, can you sell these five-flowered lion heads to me at the original price?"

Ao Bing was almost dying of laughter, where did this come from, this old man is too funny.

He purposely said with a straight face: "No."

The old man's face collapsed immediately, and he shook his head like he was about to cry stupidly, which was completely comparable to the emoji on the old man's mobile phone in the subway.

Ao Bing couldn't hold back anymore: "99 is not for sale. If you like the remaining lion heads, I will give them to you. I just cleared the tank and brought back a new batch of fish."

Old man Nie was stunned when he heard Ao Bing's words. After confirming that Ao Bing was not joking, the old man quickly realized that he refused to take it with a serious expression and insisted on paying for it.

"You don't get paid for nothing, 99, I will definitely give the money that should be given."

Of course, old man Nie knows very well that 99 items are the same as picking them up for nothing, and he has taken advantage of them completely, but he will not ask for other people's things for nothing, and the money must be paid for. This is a matter of principle.

Ao Bing felt that the old man's stubbornness and persistence were also very interesting. Seeing that he insisted on not wanting these lion heads for nothing, he didn't emphasize that they should be given away for free, but sold them to the other party at the unit price of 99.

After getting the fish, the old man happily paid the payment. Seeing that it was still early, he was not in a hurry to leave, so he tied his pony horse to sit at the door of the shop, and started chatting with Ao Bing.

During the chat, Ao Bing learned that the old man was actually a retired cadre. He used to work in the Education Bureau. There is an Ornamental Fish Lovers Association, which is a group of friends with the same hobbies. They all have some research on ornamental fish. If there is nothing to do, they will communicate in the group, and even organize some gamers to gather together and appreciate their own fish. Those precious species.

"Looking at the store you opened, I know that you must be a layman. You give me your WeChat, and I will add you and pull you into the group. After entering the group, you don't have to speak, otherwise you will reveal your secrets when you speak. People will immediately know that you are a rookie who has not yet started. You should listen more and read more, there are a lot of industry insiders and cutting-edge news in the group, and knowing these is good for your business preservation!"

Ao Bing couldn't resist the old man's enthusiasm, so he had no choice but to scan the old man's WeChat and obey the other party's invitation to join the so-called exchange group for ornamental fish lovers.

He was quite surprised that old man Nie was so slippery with WeChat. After all, this old man looked quite old, and he was probably in his seventies. Not to mention anything else, he could see the screen of his phone clearly without wearing reading glasses. Ao Bing expressed his admiration for this point.

Because the group was chatting about something enthusiastically, old man Nie suddenly pulled a strange young man into the group, but no one noticed. The messages in the group were scrolling and increasing. One word kept being mentioned, Dragon Palace Weng Rongluo.

——I heard that the young man who caught the conch was from the local area.

——More than that, he is still a college student, in his early twenties anyway.

——Are these conch shells really so valuable?How come I've never seen it before?I have never heard of this Dragon Palace Weng Rongluo.

——This thing is rare in the first place, and the number found in the world is only a few hundred. It is not easy to buy one in the last century, and it is said that it costs hundreds of thousands.

——The living body is still highly ornamental, but that thing is not easy to raise, and it is also an ancestor when you buy it back. If it is not well served, it will die. It is very expensive.

——I was a little curious when I heard the news, why don't I go to that island some other day?

——Wake up, the locals who know a little bit about the situation don't dare to approach the island, for fear that if they accidentally get close to the boat, the boat will capsize, and those with poor water quality will die directly.

——How did the boy get up there?

——I don’t know, maybe it’s just bad luck?

——This is too lucky, I caught dozens of them at once, and I made a lot of money!

Ao Bing: ...

Seeing the people in this association talking about him so enthusiastically behind his back, Ao Bing, as the person involved, still felt somewhat embarrassed and uncomfortable.

It's not his fault that he dominates the screen everywhere, so famous.

"They were talking about a local news that just came out yesterday. A young man went out to sea. It is said that he caught a lot of live Dragon Palace Weng Rong snails near an island not far from Tianjin Port. Have you heard of Dragon Palace Weng Rong snails?"

Ao Bing nodded, have you never heard of it?Those dozens of dragon palaces are kept in his family's aquarium.

"You've even heard of Dragon Palace Wengrong Conchs, is it true or not?" The old man looked at Ao Bing suspiciously, always feeling that the kid in front of him was pretending to understand, "Then do you know how many dozens of Dragon Palace Weng Rong Conchs can sell? money?"

Ao Bing thought about the reserve price he had set for Gao Yu. Not to mention the final transaction price of those auction items, just the lowest line he gave. The commission remuneration of Yu and the others, after deducting taxes, should be at least 500 million in his hands.

Ao Bing told old man Nie his answer.

But his answer was immediately scorned by the old man Nie. The old man really believed that Ao Bing was pretending to understand, and immediately sprayed:

"Young people should still learn with an open mind. How can they just talk about it without knowing it? How can there be so many? A single Dragon Palace Weng Rong Luo is not bad if it sells for 200 to 500 yuan. The money is all blown by the wind? Forty-five million? Only a fool would buy it!"

Ao Bing: ...

He really wanted to say that what you said was the price of a specimen snail shell, and the live body cannot be calculated in this way, but the old man was obviously very confident and believed that he was right. Ao Bing thought about it, but before it came out, he did not investigate Without the right to speak, he really didn't know how to refute the uncle's remarks. After all, he had no evidence, and there was no relevant domestic news data for reference.

Well, he wants to see how many idiots he can catch in this special auction.
