Smuggling Daming

Hearing that Zhou Zhong was willing to buy these optical ginseng in his hands, Yu Er's eyes immediately burst into ecstasy, and immediately asked a little eagerly: "Mr. Zhou, how much do you want to buy? Although this kind of optical ginseng is rare, but this year's The output is plentiful, so the price is not very high, only three taels of silver per catty!"

"Three taels?" Zhou Zhong turned his head to look at Yu Er, but there was a half-smile expression in his eyes. Yu Er, who always likes to read his words, saw the expression in his eyes, but felt a "thud" in his heart, although now he Everything went smoothly in the game he set up, but for some reason, he suddenly felt as if his tricks had been seen through by this gentle and gentle Mr. Zhou.

impossible!Yu Er secretly gritted his teeth, he was confident that the deception he had set up was very clever, and up to now everything was going according to his plan without any mistakes, and the other party was so young, how could he see through the trap he had set up? Bureau?Thinking of this, Yu Er felt a little more confident in his heart, and the panic in his eyes also flashed away, calmly watching Zhou Zhong and waiting for him to make a decision.

Zhou Zhong could see the expression changes on Yu Er's face, but he didn't say anything, but thought for a while with a smile on his face: "The best sea cucumber is five taels of silver, and these rare Jiaodong Guang ginseng only cost three dollars." Two, it’s really not expensive!”

"What Xianggong said is that since these ginsengs are so rare, the price of three taels is indeed not expensive, but I don't know how many of these ginsengs are there, is it enough for us to give gifts?" At this time, Jinxuan also took Zhou Zhong's words and said , she was the first person to suspect that Yu Er was a liar just now, but with the previous transaction of the best sea cucumber.She also immediately dispelled the doubts in her heart, and even felt a little apologetic in her heart. She no longer doubted Yu Er's words, and wanted to buy these precious "light ginseng" as gifts.

Hearing Jinxuan's words, Xie Lingyun wanted to persuade Zhou Zhong to buy it, but after all, she was not as innocent as Jinxuan, and she still had some doubts about Yu Er in her heart, so she opened her mouth, but in the end she still didn't say anything. .

Zhou Zhong looked at the innocent Jinxuan.But he stretched out his hand and patted her fair little hand, then blinked at her, signaling her not to speak, then turned to Yu Er and said, "Brother Yu, you should have heard what my wife said, these sea cucumbers are my They are going to be used as gifts. There are quite a lot of them, how many do you have here?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhou. This spring, I traveled all over Weihaiwei, and even went to several other Weili to collect. As a result, I finally bought a large number of ginseng, which together weighed two hundred catties. Now they are all in In the house, I wonder how much you can buy, my lord?" Yu Er didn't see Zhou Zhong's tricks towards Jin Xuan.Hearing him ask how many optical ginseng he has, he said even more excitedly.

"Two hundred catties, although it seems like a lot, but this time I have given gifts to many people, and I also want to keep some for myself. In this way, two hundred catties can only be regarded as just right, so let's do it. You take the light ginseng Take them all out, if the test is correct. I want all these ginseng!"

Zhou Zhong waved his hand very proudly and said, "There are three taels of ginseng per catty, and two hundred catties is 600 taels of silver. Although the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce has a big business now, 600 taels is not a small amount. You must know that this money is enough to buy a piece of silver." Small merchant ships.Of course, it is impossible for Zhou Zhong to do such a loss-making business by exchanging a boat for a bunch of so-called "light ginseng" of unknown origin, but now is not the time to expose Yu Er's tricks.

When Yu Er heard that Zhou Zhong wanted it all in one go, he also secretly regretted it in his heart. If he had known that he would have encountered such a big fat sheep, he should have scooped up some more "light ginseng" in the spring for backup, but regretted it now It was too late, after the spring, these "light ginseng" could not be found.

Although it was a pity in his heart, Yu Er still quickly carried the remaining ginseng out of the house. One flower was five big bags, all of which were dried ginseng, and these ginseng were also packed It was very clean, and it was well dried and preserved. Zhou Zhong inspected all the bags carefully, and finally did not find any faults.

Seeing that Zhou Zhong finished the inspection, Yu Er leaned over with a flattering smile on his face. According to the general transaction process, Zhou Zhong should pay the money next, but at this moment, Zhou Zhong picked up a so-called optical ginseng with a smile and walked away. In front of Yu Er, he smiled and said, "Yu Er, speaking of it, you did a very good job of deception, even handling these sea sausages very well, and you can be regarded as a very dedicated liar if you are able to do all these details with such care." Already!"

Yu Er, who was waiting to collect the money, heard Zhou Zhong's sudden words, and called out the name "Sea Sausage", his face suddenly turned pale, and his eyes were full of shock and fear, but he After all, he is a shrewd liar, and his experience is relatively light. At that moment, he forced a smile and denied it: "What does Mr. Zhou mean by this? What are sea sausages? These are all high-quality ginseng!"

"Guangshen?" Zhou Zhong suddenly opened his lips and smiled, showing his white teeth, but then he said in a cold tone, "Yu Er, stop playing tricks in front of this young master. Although there are very few people who know about it, unfortunately, this young master happens to be one of them. You used these dried sea sausages to pretend to be so-called ginseng. It’s okay to deceive those who don’t know, but you want to deceive me Young master, you are too young!"

"Sanggong, what's going on here? What are sea intestines? Could it be that these ginseng are all fake?" At this moment, Jinxuan came to her senses after hearing Zhou Zhong's words, and couldn't help asking.

"Yes, Weihaiwei doesn't have any light ginseng at all. The so-called light ginseng that this scammer is going to sell to us is actually a kind of sea intestine. That’s why it’s also called the sea cucumber, but no one eats sea intestines now, at most they use them as bait when fishing, and they’re not worth much at all!” Zhou Zhong explained to Jinxuan and Lingyun with a smile.

Sea intestines are creatures that live in shallow waters of the ocean, and they only live in the waters around the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea.In later generations, sea sausage was also a very precious seafood, even more expensive than sea cucumber. However, in the Ming Dynasty, people did not use sea sausage as a kind of food. It is estimated that this may be because Sea sausage looks disgusting, so it is mostly used by people in coastal areas as bait, and even used to feed livestock.

Hearing Zhou Zhong's explanation, Jinxuan and Lingyun realized that their previous guess was correct, and the skinny Yu Er in front of them was really a liar, which annoyed them both. I am afraid that they will really be cheated today, and being cheated is only second. If they give these sea sausages to their father, if there is any problem with eating them, then they will not be able to eat them for the rest of their lives. Will forgive myself.

Thinking of this, both Jinxuan and Lingyun glared at Yu Er. At this time, Yu Er heard that Zhou Zhong was so familiar with Haichang, and he knew something was wrong in his heart. He wanted to turn around and leave, but Wu Shan and others nearby But the man had already blocked his retreat, and was looking at him with a sneer on his face.

Seeing this inescapable situation, although Yu Er panicked, he still pretended to be calm, and then threatened Zhou Zhong with a ruthless face: "My surname Zhou, don't think that you are great because you have a large number of people, you But don't forget that this is Weihai, no matter how rich you are, you are still an outsider, so if you are sensible, you'd better let me go, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"

Seeing that Yu Er, who was smiling obsequiously just now, turned his face faster than turning the page of a book, and now he started to threaten himself fiercely, Zhou Zhong couldn't help clapping his hands and laughing: "Okay! What a shrewd Yu Er, who set up such a The clever trick failed to fool me, and you even threatened me, a foreigner, immediately, it seems that you, a liar, are really quick-witted!"

Zhou Zhong paused at this point, and then told Wu Shan: "Wu Shan, show your brand to a liar!"

"Yes, young master!" Wu Shan didn't hesitate when he heard Zhou Zhong's order, and immediately took out his Jin Yiwei's badge and waved it in front of Yu Er's eyes.

As a liar, Yu Er is naturally well-informed. When he saw the Jinyiwei Qianhu waist card in Wu Shan's hand, he collapsed to the ground in shock, his eyes were dumbfounded and out of focus, no matter what. He didn't expect that he would deceive Jin Yiwei, and this humble guard was actually a thousand households, so how amazing is the identity of this Mr. Zhou in front of him?

Seeing Yu Er collapsing to the ground in fright, Xie Lingyun still felt puzzled at this moment, and immediately ordered: "What are you still doing in a daze, quickly arrest this Yu Er, and then send it to Commander Meng for disposal! "

Hearing Xie Lingyun's order, Jin Yiwei under Wu Shan immediately agreed, and the two of them went up and pushed Yu Er to the ground and tied him up with a rope.At this moment, Yu Er finally woke up, and cried out to Zhou Zhong: "Young Master Zhou, please forgive me, this villain is just fooling around and not sincerely trying to lie to you. If I had known your body earlier, I would have beaten you to death." Man, a villain would not dare to lie to you for money!"

Zhou Zhong didn't have much sympathy for Yu Er. Throughout the ages, countless people were deceived by scammers and lost their fortunes. Fortunately, he met Yu Er today. If it was someone else, he would have been deceived at least a hundred taels of silver.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhong became even more annoyed. He just wanted to have Yu Er sent to the government for disposal, but suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he said immediately: "Wu Shan, you don't need to let the government's officials detain Yu Er temporarily. In addition, you have to have these sea sausages carried back to the mansion, be careful not to damage them!"

After Wu Shan heard this, he agreed, and immediately sent Yu Er and Haichang away, but at this moment, both Jinxuan and Ling Yun were a little puzzled and asked: "Mr. What do you want these sea sausages for?"
