Chapter 9 Touching porcelain?
Facts prove that Xu Zhuo’s suggestions were quite correct.
Compared to finding suitable buyers in Qingchu City, the shops at the shipwreck market are undoubtedly more refreshing.
The process of selling items was very smooth, without deliberately suppressing the price, nor was there any idea of being a bad person. After all, although the things in Lu Jing's hands were precious, they were not as good as these shops were willing to take risks for them and smash their own signatures.
After evaluation by the appraiser in the shop, the price of Moonlight shell is 1 gold leaf and 50 silver dollars, while the price of the three fish fins is a little lower. Total total is only 1 gold leaf and 20 silver dollars.
Before these two items came, Lu Jing was angry with Old Man Xu. The price was completely within the acceptable range. What really surprised Lu Jing was that the statue of the man-headed man who thought was the cheapest was sold at the highest price, two full gold leaves!
In fact, when Lu Jing took out the statue of the man's head from the package, he found that the eyes of the shopkeeper in the shop had lit up a little, so he deliberately called the price higher. Unexpectedly, the other party didn't even want to bargain, so he nodded and agreed, and paid the money without saying a word, as if he was afraid that Lu Jing would regret it.
"I lost~"
Lu Jing, who left the shop, counted his previous savings, was holding nearly 8 golden leaves, muttering in his mouth, but his face was filled with smiles that made people want to punch him.
He knew why those people valued the statue so much, probably because of the special energy it had. However, what they didn't know was that this energy had been stripped and absorbed by Lu Jing, and it happened that ordinary people could not see the changes in it at all, or that some of the remaining auras in the statue in the human head had already dazzled them.
"You can get the order of the ship that takes us here before you go back. If you plan to go out to sea and venture out later, you should be able to buy a lot of useful things here."
The previous conflict on the suspension bridge and the things in Lu Jing's hands made Xu Zhuo realize that Lu Jing was not an ordinary sailor. Thinking of the former's previous statement that he wanted to buy a sloop steamer, it goes without saying what he wanted to do.
"Can you buy weapons here? I mean hot weapons such as guns, the greater the power, the better."
Lu Jing, who had used a shotgun to smash several fish monsters last night, naturally knew how helpful these hot weapons were to people in battle. Uncle Fu's shotgun was his treasure. Lu Jing really couldn't speak and asked him for it, so he thought about buying one by himself.
"Of course there are the most lacking guns and ammunition in the shipwreck market. Look, aren't there gun flags hanging there? But if you plan to stroll around again, then I suggest you buy them before leaving. After all, guns and ammunition are very heavy."
"Then I'll buy it later. Let's go shopping first... The first time I'm here in such a place, I have to walk around the tent area below, maybe I can find a leak."
Lu Jing actually had the idea of testing the compass ability. Since he landed on the island, the compass in his pocket has never trembled, even in the store that sold Moonlight Sheep. You should know that there are many treasures on the counter over there, but none of them trembled.
"Many people think the same as you, so the stall owners of tent stalls have made a lot of money!"
Xu Zhuo rolled his eyes at Lu Jing's thoughts, but he did not stop the former from going to the tent area. Anyway, he was idle.
The two bought drinks in the tent that served as a temporary tavern. Lu Jing still had juice and Xu Zhuo had a large glass of soju. While waiting for the drink, Lu Jing politely refused a few girls who came up to meet up and dressed up in dust.
When the two of them really started to shuttle between the tents and stalls, Lu Jing soon discovered that the old man Xu Zhuo was more knowledgeable than he thought. Perhaps in order to repay Lu Jing's previous work, he took the initiative to introduce various things to him.
Many aquatic products or other antique objects that Lu Jing had never seen before. Xu Zhuo could see their heels and feet with just a glance, especially those forged things that could not escape his eyes. Many stall owners had to admit his correctness before they could argue, and then began to drive people out in a furious manner.
"Old man Xu, it's a bit interesting... No wonder Qingyunlou offers you delicious food and drink, but don't you feel embarrassed when you use this skill to watch fish?"
Because of someone's "anti-counterfeiting" action, Lu Jing, who had been walking around but still had no gains after noticing much, looked at Xu Zhuo, who was scanning the surrounding stalls and asked.
"What do you know? This is called enjoying life. Drinking alcohol and eating meat every day is a good thing that many people can't ask for."
He raised his head and drank the strong wine. Xu Zhu blinked, and was about to say something, but his figure suddenly shook.
Lu Jing thought this guy was pouring a cup, and hurriedly raised his hand to hold his shoulder.
Ouch ~
A cry of pain suddenly rang out.
It was not from Xu Zhuo, but from a child who fell beside him.
Crashed accidentally?
Lu Jing looked at the child who was lying on the ground and wanted to help him. Unexpectedly, he was halfway through his hand, and saw the child spit out a mouthful of "blood" that smelled sweet and sour, and then he opened his mouth and shouted: "Oh, my stomach hurts so much... Why do you kick me!"
Lu Jing, who was frozen in the same place, was stunned at first, and then he seemed to realize something, and his face immediately looked a little ugly.
"Ouch!!!"
Before Lu Jing could speak, there was another louder wail next to him. When he looked back, Xu Zhuo actually lay down. Not only that, he was rolling around and shouting.
"My waist, my waist seems to be broken..."
During the rolling gap, Xu Zhuo secretly gave Lu Jing another look, and the latter immediately understood it.
"Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
He knelt on the ground with a panic on his face. Lu Jing held Xu Zhuo's shoulder and helped him up, and asked in a low voice.
“What’s going on now?”
"That kid wants to mess with people, which is a common trick. Unfortunately, he met me... Don't worry about him, just help me leave. When he sees that he can't mess with people, he will leave."
Grasping Lu Jing's neckline, Xu Zhuo leaned into his ear with a "pain" face and said.
"clear."
Thinking that Xu Zhuo was the old world, Lu Jing carried him on his shoulders and was about to walk out of the crowd.
However, this time it was Xu Zhuo's dream.
"Hey! Those two bastards over there hurt my child and wanted to leave. Brothers, stop them!"
Before Lu Jing could walk out a few steps, an angry shout came from behind him. The crowd in front retreated to both sides, squeezed out a few familiar faces, and intentionally or unintentionally blocked their way again.
It was the person I met on the suspension bridge before!
"Damn, these people deliberately, there's something wrong now..."
Xu Zhuo, who was on Lu Jing's back, saw this scene and his face darkened and he said with gritted teeth.
"It seems that your method is not good, so try mine."
Turning back and put Xu Zhuo down, Lu Jing half-squinted his eyes,
"My uncle was hit by that child, at least. I haven't asked you for compensation yet. Why are there anyone who came to send medical expenses?"
"Lu Jing, a hero will not suffer any loss in front of him."
Realizing that Lu Jing seemed to have the urge to argue with these people head-on, Xu Zhuo hurriedly spoke out to stop him.
"Their purpose is to create conflicts so that they can fight with you!"
"Gambling?"
Lu Jing frowned and asked.
"that is......"
Xu Zhuo was about to explain, but was interrupted by the sound coming from behind.
"Since we are not satisfied with each other, boy, come and fight and speak with our fists!"
A black headscarf wrapped around his head and a short jacket. He was a circle larger than Lu Jing. The man with a tiger tattooed on his chest threw a golden leaf up and down in his hands, and his face was full of arrogance of success. When the crowd around him saw this scene, he immediately looked at Lu Jing with a sarcasm.
