Chapter 15 Twelve Red Butterfly Tails (This chapter is free)

"Lao Luo is actually just a child who didn't grow up. He loved playing with these birds, fish and so on when he was young. The bird cage he used to feed the red sunflower was given to him by a playmate when he was young. There is also a red sunflower bird, and the two have a deep relationship..." The old man surnamed Huang said to Chen Ran while thinking about it.

Although Lao Huang didn't say much, Chen Ran also heard that this birdcage was probably Uncle Luo's affection for his playmate, which made his heart sink. It's almost impossible to get it.

"The red sunflower bird died a long time ago. For so many years, Lao Luo has always wanted to raise a red sunflower bird. Although the red sunflower bird is not a rare species, it is also rare, until last year. He just got this one, and since then, he has regarded the red sunflower bird as a treasure, which is very rare..." Lao Huang seemed to think of Uncle Luo's precious red sunflower bird, and laughed cheerfully .

Chen Ran listened quietly, showing no sign of impatience.

After smiling, Lao Huang looked at Chen Ran: "The way I told you is to let you buy a pair of twelve red butterfly tails to exchange with Lao Luo. In addition to a red sunflower bird, there is also a pair of twelve red butterfly tails, you may try this method, but I don't know if it will work, Lao Luo is too stubborn!"

Chen Ran's heart suddenly moved... "Boss, do you sell twelve red butterfly tails here?" Standing at the entrance of Lanting Flower and Bird Store in Beihuan Flower and Bird Market, Chen Ran probed in and asked the female boss sitting at the counter .

"Twelve Red Butterfly Tails?" The female boss was taken aback for a moment, then raised her head to glance at Chen Ran, and shook her head: "That's a good thing, you can't buy it even if you want to, little brother, please leave a phone number, it's in stock If so, I will let you know."

"No thanks!"

Shaking his head, Chen Ran turned around and headed for the next one. He had already asked more than ten stores, and each store basically gave the same answer. Next, Chen Ran asked the entire flower and bird market, but No family.

Since Yangzhou goldfish won a big victory at the 3000th Huaxia Flower Fair in the past two years, the value of Yangzhou goldfish has soared. Before that, the most expensive one, like Twelve Red Butterfly Tails, was hundreds of yuan. After the fair, , but it has risen to [-] yuan a piece, so the owner is still reluctant to sell it.

Nowadays, there is even a price but no market, and you can’t buy it if you want to buy it, unless you go to the local area to find it occasionally.

After running the flower and bird market, Chen Ran went to the aquatic product market again, but he still found nothing. When he came out of the aquatic product market, he found that it was past four o'clock in the afternoon. After thinking about it, he planned to go to the treasure city again.

But at this moment, Gao Qiang received a call.

"Xiao Ran, are you going to participate in the provincial professional jade carving competition?" After the call was connected, Gao Qiang's voice came.

Chen Ran had made up his mind last night. No matter what, he had to try it. Even if he didn't win the prize in the end, it was still a chance to try. Although he now has the ability to predict the future in his dreams, he didn't want to Lose the skill of jade carving.

"I thought about it and decided to give it a try."

"Well, I checked today and found that the deadline for registration was the day before yesterday. I'll ask someone to say hello to you. It shouldn't be a problem. You should prepare well. There are not many days left for the exam. That's it. Let's go." Gao Qiang's other side on the phone was a little 'chaotic', and he didn't know where it was.

Gao Qiang was about to hang up the phone, but was suddenly stopped by Chen Ran: "Wait a minute. Brother Qiang, do you know who sells Twelve Red Butterfly Tails in their hands or where?"

It was only then that Chen Ran thought of asking Gao Qiang, after all, Gao Qiang was much more informed.

"Twelve Red Butterfly Tails?" Gao Qiang was taken aback for a moment, and then he groaned for a long time before he said, "Are you going to buy it? I know someone who has a pair, but they also like it very much. I don't think so." It will be sold, how about this, I will send you a mobile phone number, you go to him to have a look."

Chen Ran didn't expect Gao Qiang to have some news. If he had known about it, he would have asked him, and he didn't have to travel so many places.

Soon Gao Qiang sent over his cell phone number.

After Chen Ran wrote it down, he was about to call, but the other party called first.

"Hello, are you Young Master Chen? I'm Xiao Gu. Brother Qiang has already greeted me. Come here directly. I'm opposite the north gate of Beihuan Antique City. When you arrive, call me and I'll pick you up." It sounded like a boy.

As for the other party calling Chen Ran Young Master Chen, Chen Ran didn't explain it, presumably the other party regarded him as someone like Gao Qiang.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Ran went directly to the Antique City by car. After getting off the car, he called Xiao Gu.Xiao Gu came very quickly. Not long after hanging up the phone, he walked over and said to Chen Ran: "Hello, Young Master Chen, please follow me."

With a pair of gold-rimmed eyes, Xiao Gu looked like a teacher. Although he was a little surprised when he saw Chen Ran's attire, he did not show any contempt or contempt in his eyes.

Chen Ran nodded.

Following Xiao Gu's turn around in the alley, Chen Ran followed Xiao Gu into a courtyard, and then he did not go upstairs, but entered the basement instead.

The basement was like a large warehouse, but it was divided into several parts, all blocked by wooden boards, and Chen Ran couldn't see clearly what was inside, so he was directly taken to a reception room by Xiao Gu.

"Young Master Chen, what do you want?" After entertaining Chen Ran, Xiao Gu looked at Chen Ran.

After thinking about it, Chen Ran said without any nonsense, "I need a pair of twelve red butterfly tails."

"Twelve Red Butterfly Tails?" Xiao Gu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "Young Master Chen, wait a moment, I'll find someone to ask."

Chen Ran nodded.

Xiao Gu went out for more than ten minutes before returning. He was followed by a person, holding a basin of fish tanks. He only heard Xiao Gu say to Chen Ran: "Young Master Chen, it's a coincidence that you came. We Not long ago, I got a batch of Yangzhou goldfish, and they were all sold out as soon as they were shipped back. Now there are only a pair of twelve red butterfly tails left, and this pair of twelve red butterfly tails has also been reserved, but I called Brother Qiang just now, and he said that you are in a hurry to use it, so I will give it to you first."

Chen Ran didn't know whether what he said was true or not, so he nodded noncommittally, and looked at the fish tank held by the man behind.

The man stepped forward quickly, and placed the fish tank in front of Chen Ran.

Chen Ran looked at it, and it was indeed very beautiful, like a princess, and it made people's heart flutter at a glance. He raised his head and looked at Xiao Gu: "How much is it?"

"Young Master Chen, you are Brother Qiang's friend. Ordinarily, we shouldn't charge you money, but we are also in business. The next brothers have to eat, but Brother Qiang said hello, and we will accept you for this pair of twelve red-tailed butterflies. How about 6000 yuan?" What Xiao Gu said was watertight, and this price is also suitable, even a little cheap. After all, the current Twelve Red Butterfly Tails are priceless, and they have increased a lot in the past two years. .

Chen Ran nodded, and directly found out 6000 yuan and handed it to Xiao Gu. When he came out to buy Twelve Red Butterfly Tails, he thought that these things must be paid in cash.

6000 yuan is not a decimal. Although Chen Ran was heartbroken to spend it, he could only do so in order to catch big fish.

Before leaving, Xiao Gu enthusiastically sent Chen Ran to the car before leaving. When leaving, he told Chen Ran intentionally or unintentionally that he could contact him directly if he wanted anything in the future. There is nothing they can't get if they want it.

Chen Ran also had this intention. Although he doesn't need anything now, it will be much more convenient if he needs it in the future. This can be regarded as a relationship.

boom!

boom!

Chen Ran, who was holding a fish tank, stood in front of Uncle Luo's house again, and it was Grandma Luo who opened the door for him. Grandma Luo was stunned when she saw Chen Ran holding a fish tank. After a while: "Oh, Xiaoran, what are you doing?"

Chen Ran hugged the fish tank and squeezed in directly. While walking towards the main room, he said to Grandma Luo: "Grandma Luo, I heard that Uncle Luo likes twelve red butterfly tails, so I just Went to buy a pair and sent them to Uncle Luo."

"Hey, you kid is really as stubborn as the old man! It will cost a lot of money..." Grandma Luo murmured at Chen Ran, and then shouted loudly to the main room: "Damn old man , come out quickly, look at what Xiaoran brought you, haven't you been thinking about wanting a red tail... You said it's just a broken bird, what's so rare about you!"

"What are you yelling about!" Uncle Luo came out of the house, stood at the door, and reprimanded the yelling Grandma Luo, then glared at Chen Ran angrily: "Why are you here again, I said If you don’t sell it, you don’t sell it!”

"Why are you yelling!" Luo's grandma was also angry, stepped aside and stood aside, revealing the fish tank in Chen Ran's arms: "Look at what Xiao Ran brought you?"

Only then did Uncle Luo look at the fish tank, and with just one glance, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Twelve red butterfly tails?"

Chen Ran hurriedly placed the fish tank in front of Uncle Luo, who looked down as if possessed by a demon, and muttered in a low voice: "It looks like it, it really looks like it, old lady, come and see it, look at this one Does the tail of the twelve red butterflies look like red butterflies? It just happens to branch at the place where these two tails are, and they are about the same size..."

Grandma Luo snorted coldly, curled her lips in displeasure, my old lady has never seen your red butterfly, she looks like a big ghost like you!

"Put it on the ground quickly, don't shake it." Uncle Luo seemed to have forgotten what Chen Ran was going to do.

Chen Ran nodded, squatted down, and carefully placed the fish tank on the ground.

"Slow down! Slow down, this is a treasure..." Uncle Luo also squatted down, like a child counting ants on the ground.

Chen Ran stood up and waited quietly. Grandma Luo moved two chairs into the room, gave one to Chen Ran and one to Uncle Luo, but Uncle Luo didn't seem to feel it. On the ground, I have been looking down at the tails of the twelve red butterflies.

Uncle Luo watched for more than 20 minutes before he reluctantly sat on the chair, sighed, and shook his head. He didn't know what he was sighing or shaking his head. After a long time, he turned his head Looking at Chen Ran, sighing again, he looked at Grandma Luo... "Go and pull up my red sleeve..."

Chen Ran's heart skipped a beat, and he felt his heart beating so abruptly...
