Rebirth of the best emperor

Chapter 25 Scrap?

At this time, Ziliang also saw the stones in the box, and immediately shouted: "Li Zhe, I thought you were a gentleman just now, but you... what do you mean by getting scraps here?"

"Hahaha, I thought it was some kind of treasure, but it turned out to be a waste." Fang Qiu also laughed.

Scrap, as the name implies, is a material that is likely to be cut out. This kind of stone is often cut in half, and nothing is cut out, or the cut out thing is not satisfactory.

Just like the two pieces in front of Wang Mang and others, one is the size of a fist, and the other is the size of a human head, with cuts on all four sides. The head-sized stone has already turned green, while the fist-sized stone has nothing.

According to the quarry, green means jade, and this head-sized stone turned out to be green, not white, which is a big problem. It may be worth 18 taels of silver, and it is only worth a few thousand taels. This is a bad bet.

"These two stones look familiar. Where did you get them?" At this moment, an old man who had been following the square ball's eyes lit up and suddenly said.

Li Zhe glanced at the old man, and suddenly said, "Nangong Wentian?"

"Hey, I didn't expect that there are people who know me in this place." Nangong Wentian's eyes became brighter.

"How could I not know you? Most of the best appraisers in the stone gambling world come from your Nangong family, and you Nangong Wentian is the top appraiser in Daqin. If I don't know you, I don't need to hang out here. But you, Nangong Wentian, are not hanging out in the south, what are you doing here in the capital?" Li Zhe sneered, as if he was very displeased with Nangong Wentian and the Nangong family.

"You know quite a lot. What I'm here has nothing to do with you." Nangong Wentian smiled and said, "Now that you know who I am, can you tell me where these two stones come from?"

"Since you are from the Nangong family, can't you tell where this stone came from?" Li Zhe glared at Nangong and asked the sky.

"You..." Nangong Wentian frowned, and suddenly said, "Are you the same person ten years ago?"

"Hmph!" Li Zhe didn't answer, but snorted coldly.

Nangong Wentian immediately knew that Li Zhe was the person he had heard of, and instantly knew why this person was so unsympathetic to him. If it was that person back then, everything would make sense.

"Master, do you know him?" Fang Qiu respectfully said, this time he spent a lot of money to invite Nangong Wentian, you must know that the entire capital now knows that Nangong Wentian is not in the capital. Too much, let alone please move this one.

"I don't know him, but I've heard of it." Nangong Wentian saw a large circle of people around him, and explained: "This gentleman asked a senior from my Nangong family to help him look at the stone, but as the saying goes, people make mistakes. The horse made a mistake, and my senior also accidentally lost his hand, and the two stones that this gentleman bought for 18 taels of silver are all ruined!"

"It's really bought for 18 taels!" Everyone exclaimed. They thought Li Zhe was bragging before, but they didn't expect what he said was true.

18 taels is not a small number. Although there are many stone gambling workshops, there are also many stalls, but let alone stones worth more than 18 taels, there are not many stones worth more than 10 taels. This 18 taels is too much, and there are not many people in the entire capital who can afford this amount.

Everyone looked at Li Zhe with a look of surprise at the moment. This Li Zhe squatted here every day. No matter how you look at it, this image doesn't match that of a rich man who can hold 18 taels of silver.

"That's right, but I still remember how your Nangong family told me that although the stone is inconspicuous, its surface texture is clear, and some white mist-like gas is lingering on it. The astonishing state means that this stone must be extraordinary, and it must be a spirit stone. Then I bought it, and even bought another piece. It is said that the outer texture is pure green, and there are no interesting impurities. That is to produce imperial jade. " Li Zhe said angrily: "I was fooled into buying this by you, but in the end, the big guys saw that this man with a big green head was the emperor jade that was said back then. Do you think this looks like an emperor jade? ? And this fist is big and has nothing. There was a person as tall as a person back then, so there is only so little left after being cut, and there is nothing. This is also called being able to produce spirit stones."

"Mr. Li, there has never been a ten-gamble ten-win thing, you should know this, so this stone bet failed, you can't hate my Nangong family like this." Nangong Wentian said with a gloomy face: "Besides, since then After the first miss, my senior hasn't shot again for a long time."

"Hehe." Li Zhe sneered: "You sound good. If you hadn't guaranteed me a ticket back then, how could I have listened to your nonsense and bought these two stones, which broke my capital chain. It became what it is now.”

"Can we not mention the past?" Nangong Wentian asked coldly.

"I didn't want to mention it at first. It's been so many years, and it can't be undone." Li Zhe sighed, and said in a waned way: "You guys pay the money!"

"You want to lie to me about 1 taels of silver, too?" Fang Qiu was a little reluctant at this time. Although he had a lot of money, 1 taels was not a small number. After he vaguely agreed, he already regretted it. "

"Give it to him." Nangong Wentian said.

"This... Master?" Fang Qiu looked at Nangong Wentian unwillingly.

"Take it as Cheng Yi who invited me." Nangong asked Tiandao, he also meant to compensate Li Zhe, after all, it was his Nangong Yimen, who was once a wealthy man, who fell to this point because of his sudden miss.

"Okay." Fang Qiu rolled his eyes and felt that he was not losing money, so he ordered the left and right to give the money, and then asked Nangong Wentian in a low voice: "Master, these two stones won't yield anything good, after all, they were worth 18 yuan back then." Thousands of things."

"I don't know." Nangong Wentian shook his head and said, "According to common sense, nothing can be cut from this stone, but I have heard my elder mention that many things in this world are not absolute, and the same is true for these two stones. He still can't figure out why these two stones became like this. According to my elders, I wanted to cut them off to see what happened, but the situation at that time did not allow it, and this Mr. Li would not agree. It is worth a little money when it is scrap, but if it is cut off, it may not be worth a penny.”

"What do you think, Master?" Fang Qiu asked with some concern.

"Usually nothing good can come out." Nangong Wentian looked at the two stones for a long time, then shook his head.

Receiving Nangong Wentian's guarantee, Fang Qiu suddenly trembled, looked at Wang Mang and said arrogantly: "See if you can, I will give you these two pieces of scrap as my master. I don't have much else, just a lot of money." If you can’t spend it all, just treat it as beggars, extort money from the young master, and see how the young master will deal with you later.”

"Too much money to spend?" Wang Mang remained silent, looking at Fang Qiu with a half-smile.

"That's right, I have a lot of money." Fang Qiu laughed and said, "My father is the God of Wealth. He calls me Grandpa. Grandpa doesn't mind giving you a few pennies."

"Hehe." Wang Mang sneered and didn't speak.

Li Lan said sinisterly at the side: "Don't be arrogant, there will be times when you cry!"
