Chapter 372 Selling the Pearl

Chapter 372 Selling the Pearl
"This is..." Ye Weilan asked in surprise. "Night Pearl?"

Xuan Chen nodded slightly, and it turned out that this bead, which looks like the soil in the ground, is actually the priceless night pearl in the legend, "Tell me, if there is a very cheap night pearl delivered to your door, would a normal person think about it?" Want to buy it?"

Ye Weilan nodded, thinking, "Maybe...it's a good idea!"

"Let's go, daughter-in-law, let's go now!" Xuan Chen put away Ye Mingzhu, and reached out to hold Ye Weilan's hand very naturally, but Ye Weilan dodged it.

"I'm not a horse, so you don't need to lead me." Ye Weilan gave him an annoyed look. This guy was eating her tofu all the time. Thinking about it carefully, she was really unbelievable. In his previous life, he treated her like that. Bad, treating her so well in this life is like schizophrenia, making her wonder if she should continue to hate him.

Xuan Chen's intentions were exposed by her, and he was not angry, but he just laughed a few times, and said to Luan Ying and Du Xihua: "We two will go there in a carriage, and you two will ride horses, with clairvoyance, find a suitable position to stare at that place. Zhuangzi."

"Yes!" Luan Ying and Du Xihua agreed with expressions.

Xuan Chen said to Ye Weilan again: "Daughter-in-law, your horse is too eye-catching. My horse has marks on it. Let's not ride horses. There is a carriage in the inn, so let's take the carriage."

"Okay!" Ye Weilan nodded, knowing that he was thinking very well. His horses all had the imprint of the palace. Very rare in this world.

The two came to the lobby and asked the shopkeeper to help arrange a carriage, because it was noon soon, and the few people who set off now would definitely miss lunch, so they ate something casually, and then asked the young man to help drive the carriage to Suzhou. Go home.Luan Ying and Du Xihua followed behind on horseback.

Sujiazhuang is fifteen miles away from Shangjing Town. Because the road is not easy to walk, it took more than an hour for the carriage to arrive.

After arriving, Xuan Chen got out of the car first, and then helped Ye Weilan out of the car. He looked around first, and found that the location of this Sujiazhuang was very interesting. It happened to be hidden in a small hill Behind it, people passing by the official road can't see the Zhuangzi at all, unless they pass a small path around the small hill named Qian Kunshan, they can see the Zhuangzi.

This Sujiazhuang occupies a huge area. The person who bought the land surrounded the former Dingli Village with a wall of blue bricks. The wall was three feet high, and the black painted gate was wide open at this time. A few scattered houses can be vaguely seen.

It happened to be the autumn harvest season at this time, and from time to time, villagers used carts to pull grain to the village.

There were still a few guarded men standing on the top of the wall, all holding long guns in their hands, patrolling around.

Xuan Chen and Ye Weilan looked at each other, and they walked over.

"Stop!" A strong man at the door stopped them with a gun and asked, looking at their decent clothes. "What do you do?"

Xuan Chen clasped his fists and said, "Brother, can you tell the owner that we have treasures and want to sell them to the owner."

"Treasure? What treasure?" the young man asked suspiciously.

Xuan Chen smiled, "I'm sorry, brother, this treasure can only be shown to the owner!"

"No! Our owner is very busy and has no time to see you!" the strong man said impatiently.

Xuan Chen knew that this was called "The king of hell is nice to see, but the little ghost is hard to deal with", so he took out his money bag, took out a piece of broken silver and stuffed it in, "Brother, please be flexible, and you can tell your owner that it is extremely rare." If your owner says he can't see us, then we will never bother you again."

The strong man took the money, thought for a while, and said in a rough voice: "Then you wait!"

"Okay, okay!" Xuan Chen responded with a very respectful attitude, and then pulled Ye Weilan to stand on the side of the road and waited.

The two waited for a long time, and the strong man finally came back, and said with a foul expression: "Come with me, the owner is happy to meet you."

"Thank you very much!" Xuan Chen thanked him with a smile, and Ye Weilan followed him into the Zhuangzi.

The people in the village are weighing the grain sent by the tenants in the open space in the yard, the women in the farmer are either washing up, or feeding the chickens and ducks, and the children are playing.

There is a house in Zhuangzi, which is very beautifully built. The house is not big, and it only covers an area of ​​one mu of land. The two of them followed the strong man and walked in. They walked around the screen wall and saw a man in the front yard who was dressed in clothes. A man wearing a black double-breasted cotton waistcoat is wielding a wide-backed big-huan knife.

This man's figure is very burly, with big arms and round waist, he is half a head taller than Xuan Chen's father, his two arms are muscled, Ye Weilan estimated that this man's arms may be thicker than her waist.

Seeing Xuan Chen and Ye Weilan coming in, the man didn't stop moving, he just swung the big knife to make the tiger roar like a tiger. After a cup of tea, he stopped, put away the momentum, and put the big knife in the courtyard. On the weapon rack, he casually grabbed a towel handed over by a little girl, wiped off his sweat, and then turned his attention to the two of them.

"What treasure do you have? Do you have to sell it to me?" He asked in a deep voice, his voice was as deep as a bell.

"It's a luminous pearl!" Xuan Chen smiled and took out his luminous pearl, and said that this luminous pearl was given to him by his mother, and it can be used to light up occasionally when he wakes up at night, which is better than lighting candles.

"Yu Mingzhu?" The man strode over, took the Ye Ming Pearl from his hand, squeezed it between his fingers thicker than a carrot, looked at it, and then laughed. "Isn't this just a broken stone? How could it be a night pearl?"

Seeing a night pearl that was no bigger than a longan being pinched between his fingers, Ye Weilan's heart instinctively lifted, for fear that this man would accidentally crush the night pearl.

Xuan Chen smiled and said: "So that the owner can know that this luminous pearl is collected from the Heavenly God Stone. Although it looks like an ordinary stone on the surface, it can shine in places where there is no light. If the Lord does not believe, you might as well go into the house and block the light from the windows, so you can see it at a glance.”

"Okay, come with me!" The man thought for a while, turned and walked into the front hall, and said loudly. "Come on, close the windows.

Two little servant girls came in, closed the door, took out a piece of cloth from the inner room, shook it off, stood on the chair and pulled one side each, blocking all the windows.

The light in the room suddenly dimmed, and the luminous pearl in the man's hand emitted a soft light.

The man suddenly showed a surprised expression, and said to the two maids: "Go down!"

He played with this luminous pearl, cast gloomy eyes on Xuan Chen, and asked bluntly: "Where are you from? Why did you ask me to sell this luminous pearl?"

Xuan Chen smiled faintly, "We are from the capital, and our family has been in the jewelry business for generations. My villain is fifteen years old this year, and I am not too young, so the elders in the family sent me out to experience it. I heard that there are many merchants in Liaocheng. I went to Liaocheng to sell a batch of jewelry, but when I was passing through Shangjing Town, I heard from the people in the town that there was a Sujiazhuang here, the owner's family had a big business, and he was a rich man, so I thought, maybe I can touch it. Luck. The owner probably doesn't like ordinary things, and the villain only has this night pearl in his hand, so he came here and asked the owner for forgiveness."

"How much do you want?"

Xuan Chen didn't expect it to go so smoothly, so he directly talked about the price, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "1000 taels of gold!"

"1000 taels of gold, it's worth buying such a treasure, okay, just wait." The man said loudly. "Come on, call me the butler."

After a while, a well-dressed man walked in from the outside. After entering, he first glanced at Xuan Chen and Ye Weilan, and then saluted the owner, "Master, what do you want me to do?"

"I bought a luminous pearl and gave them 1000 taels of gold." The owner said casually, playing with the luminous pearl in his hands.

"What? Master, you spent 1000 taels of gold to buy a night pearl?" The butler's expression looked a little exciting.

"Yes!" The owner of the villa glanced at the accountant lightly. "Not yet!"

"Yes!" The butler looked a little unconvinced, but he turned around obediently and went out. After a while, under his leadership, two strong men came in with a box and put it on the ground. The accountant stepped forward to open the box. , revealing the golden bricks inside. "Here is 1000 taels of gold."

Xuan Chen nodded with a smile, "The owner is really a generous person, this business has been done so happily!"

The owner frowned slightly, "If you have something like this again next time, you might as well send it to me directly."

"Definitely!" Xuan Chen said and bowed to him. "Now that we have both money and goods, the villain will bid farewell!"

"Go!" The owner waved his hand. "Send them out!"

The two strong men who brought in the gold came in again, tied up the box, carried it up, and sent Xuan Chen and Ye Weilan out of the village.

Although Xuan Chen and Ye Weilan felt that it was incredible that things went smoothly, they dared not say anything on their territory.

In the owner's room, the butler frowned and looked at the owner who was playing with the Ye Mingzhu, "What about the 1000 taels of gold, just let them take it away?"

"Hehe..." The owner of the villa smiled sullenly, and the look in his eyes suddenly became scary like the letter of a poisonous snake. "Send a few people to follow them and see where they live. I heard that they still have some jewels on them. Take them back with the gold. Those who can get this night pearl should also have high-quality jewels. It is."

"Yes..." the butler said, turning around to go out.

"Wait..." The owner suddenly stopped the butler, looked into the butler's eyes and said.
