I didn't become a human today

Ji Ran waited for a while, seeing that Liang Xingye was still unresponsive, his heart turned a thousand times.

He shouldn't think that he bit into this pancake, right? Ordinary people don't like to eat other people's leftovers. He was the one who was abrupt.

"If you don't like it, I'll break off the bitten top, and you eat the bottom." Saying this, I don't know if it was because of my brain, not only didn't take back the right hand that hooked the shoulders, but also stretched out the left hand , When tearing off the pancake, it happened to be an action to encircle Xingye. Liang Xingye just stood still and asked him to encircle him. By the time Ji Ran realized that his posture was wrong, it was too late.

He froze in place, and the scene was even more embarrassing than before.

Ji Ran cursed in his heart, and then withdrew his greasy hand, trying to stuff the torn piece of fried pancake into his mouth, and chew it to relieve the embarrassment.

The oil cake was about to touch the lips, and was stopped by Mr. Liang's hand.

He sighed, and there was something more inexplicable in his eyes, "I don't like this kind of fried snack..."

Forcibly snatching the small piece of oil pancake he bit into from Ji Ran's hand, the voice changed, "Since you are so enthusiastic, then I will reluctantly take a small bite."

You eat this piece, I bitten that piece... Before Ji Ran could say this, Liang Xingye had already put that piece of pancake in his mouth, took out a handkerchief, and wiped it off for him Wipe those greasy hands.

Ji Ran, who was used to being served, felt at ease.

The Fu family is a well-known local stone merchant, and the ability to hold a stone betting conference naturally means how strong this family is in Shiyuan.

Gambling with stones is very risky, as the saying goes, "One knife is poor, and one knife is rich".Some people spend all they have to buy a piece of rough wool. After cutting it open, it may contain valuable jade, or it may be a worthless stone.

During these three days, stone merchants from all over the country who thought they were discerning all wanted to gain some limelight at the Stone Gambling Conference in Stone City.

To participate in the Stone Gambling Conference, one must have a rough stone in hand.

"Of course, we don't need to take a real rough stone. After all, we are not really going to participate in the stone gambling conference." Under the temperature, there are even more outsiders who want to come here to try their luck. They keep walking and stopping in the Gobi Desert under the scorching heat.

Ji Ran bent down and picked up a big stone from the ground, still urging Liang Xingye, "This is it, it's ugly and very pleasing to the eye. Wrap it up and leave quickly, this place is too hot."

Humming and hugging the stone for a while, feeling a little regretful, he glanced at the relaxed Liang Xingye, "Do you think this stone is too big? Should I change it to a smaller one? I haven’t participated in the stone betting conference, but I heard from the doctor that the bigger the stone, the better, I’m afraid I won’t let it in if it’s too small, but this stone is really heavy.”

Liang Xingye was a little helpless. After he said such a long word and went around such a big circle, he just wanted him to help move it for a while, took over the big stone, and seeing Ji Ran's expression of relief, he also had Inexplicable smile.

The Stone Gambling Conference was held in Stone City. The Fu family spent money to encircle a large piece of land in the center of the city. In order to prevent people from making trouble, they hired many thugs.

All kinds of people can be seen everywhere on the road, holding all kinds of stones and queuing up to sign up.You don't need to pay money, you just need to show the steward at the door a look at the stone in your hand, and you can enter.

Everyone treats the stones in their hands like treasures. Whenever someone enters the venue to sign up, a group of people will come over to check the quality of the stones in advance. Among them are some good people who like to comment on everyone's stone skin.

The one in front of Ji Ran was a middle-aged man in expensive clothes, leading a fierce-looking dog.He spoke in a loud voice. When the people in front handed over stones, he would look at him, smile contemptuously, and shake his head from time to time. He seemed to be an expert with a lot of background. It was sold for 1 taels casually.

Ji Ran entered the arena very smoothly, but when he took out the ugly stone that he picked up at random, the gatekeeper couldn't help showing a very helpless look, because the stone didn't look like a piece of wool at all. .As long as he was here to join in the fun, when he closed his eyes, Dao also let them in.

Ji Ran hugged the ugly stone like he was holding a treasure. After entering the stage, he winked with Liang Xingye and started acting.

He carefully put the ugly stone on the table, and then began to yell loudly, "Jade material that is rare in a thousand years, everyone, come and see, 80 taels, a penny is not a lot."

Ji Ran's asking price is not usually high, it is terrifyingly high!Even the price he asked for was the highest price in the entire stone betting conference. With such a shout, naturally many people wanted to see how rare this piece of jade is, including the dog-leader just now.

"This is just an ordinary stone. How dare you ask for 80 taels of something you pick up casually on the side of the road? Do you think everyone is a fool?" As soon as the man spoke, he even brought his dog and started to look at Ji Ran. shouted.

The people around immediately echoed, "In my opinion, this person is a real fool, crazy about money."

Ji Ran had a serious face, and he didn't take those jokes into his eyes at all, "There is a saying in the gambling world that it is difficult for a god to break an inch of jade. The outer layer of skin is ugly, but how can you do it?" Are you sure it's not a priceless jade? To be honest, this stone has always been a family heirloom in my family. If it weren't for the fact that there is no other way, I wouldn't sell it. Could it be that there is no one who knows the goods in the entire stone gambling conference? Is it? Call the most knowledgeable person here!"

In the teahouse on one side, the wooden windows are half open, and someone is leisurely making tea by the window.The new tea was poured into the water, the color of the tea was clear, the cup was put to his lips, before he had time to take a sip, the maid beside him brought a bowl of black medicinal soup, interrupting his interest in drinking tea inappropriately.

"Young master, I've taken some medicine."

At the same time, several subordinates hurried upstairs and whispered a few words into the ear of the tea drinker.

"My lord, the troublemaker downstairs, do you want to drive him out?"

The man held the medicine bowl and drank it in one gulp, as if he had long been accustomed to this bitter taste, and never touched the candied fruit on the side plate.

The smell of tea couldn't cover the smell of medicine in the room, and he looked out of the window with more playful eyes.

"It's time to go down and get some air, don't drive that person away, maybe...it's really a beautiful piece of jade..."
