Chapter 348 People Want Face, Trees Want Bark(2/4)
"Can pig meat really eat?"
Ming Jing sat in the duty room, looking like a monk who had attained enlightenment.
"You'll know if you try it yourself."
Jia Ping'an took the news and started the review.
There have been trivial matters recently, and Jia Ping'an handed the news to Mingjing, "If you have something to do, look at it."
Ming Jing just took over these things, and it was very novel, so she looked at them word by word.
Jia Ping'an praised: "Sure enough, he is dedicated to his duties."
This was Mingjing's first time being praised by him, and I couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
After Jia Ping'an left, Cheng Da came in, "Mingzhongguan, I will go out."
Ming Jing frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "I haven't finished reading these news yet. If you find anything, who can I ask for?"
Cheng Da was stunned, "Brother Wu Yang said before that today is a trivial matter..."
Mingjing looked at the stack of paper and clasped her hands tightly.
Jia Ping'an, I and you are incompatible!
Jia Ping'an went to Tietou Tavern.
Many people are still practicing calligraphy independently while roosters.
It was hot and she was wearing a thinner dress and could see the snake's head on her chest.
"I've met Wu Yang Bo."
Many people never thought that their asylum would become counts, so they became more respectful.
She went to make tea herself, and Jia Ping'an sat there.
"The slave sent someone to follow him, but he didn't say that he ran fast, and he went to a crowded place, and disappeared in a few seconds."
Jia Ping'an has always wanted to know who passed the news that Fang Yiai was preparing to cheat Xue Wanche to a lot, but so far there was no clue.
"By the way, Hu merchants from the Western Regions have been selling jewelry these days, and many people have bought it." Many people glanced at Jia Ping'an and thought that although this young man Wu Yang was unmarried, there should be many confidantes.
Women all like shiny things, and that thing looks very beautiful.
Jia Ping'an felt a little moved, thinking about buying some to keep it to coax the woman.
A evil young man took him to find the shop.
There are more than a dozen women in the store, chattering and selecting jewelry.
"A man is in."
It is rare for men to come to jewelry stores, while women look curious.
"Please come in with the guest." Hu Nv welcomed Jia Ping'an in very enthusiastically. Hu Shang smiled and said, "Welcome precious guests, the best jewelry in the world here."
Jia Ping'an took a look...
look familiar!
The brocade boxes contained dark and shiny jewelry.
Jia Ping'an picked up a piece, and Hu immediately reached out to answer the side, and a feeling of dignity arose.
Jia Ping'an sighed and put the jewelry back.
Ms. Hu was puzzled, "Don't the customer want to buy it?"
A woman smiled and said, "This thing is a bit expensive, and the young man can't afford it!"
"Someone can afford it."
Jia Ping'an turned around and prepared to go back.
Hu Shang was well aware of the method of provoking generals, "Do you think the guests are expensive? Such gems come from ancient Western countries. It is rumored that there is magic in gems that can stop the invasion of demons..."
Several women were moved, "I bought it."
“I’ll buy it too.”
Hu Shang's eyes were filled with more comfort.
These bunch of hammers!
Jia Ping'an didn't want to worry about it, but Hu Shang's eyes made him feel uncomfortable, "This is not a gem, this thing is a variant of Shi Nie, what gem..."
I really laughed out loud.
This thing was called coal essence in later generations.
In the early years, coal essence was discovered in coal mines. When coal was first used to cook, some small coal mines were often mixed with coal essence, which was not very hot when burned. Those people often called the coal mine owner a profiteer.
Even the kids don't play with this thing.
"The guest's words are wrong." Hu Shang smiled and said, "I don't know what Shi Ni is, but this thing is a rare treasure..."
This guy was fooling around as if something was right, and several women asked someone to get the money.
Jia Ping'an picked up a piece of coal, "This thing is light, and it will burn if thrown into the fire, but the fire is very small. The gem... go and find a few people who know Shi Nirvana."
Shi Nie is coal.
At this moment, the fuel used in Chang'an is mainly wood charcoal, and very little coal is used.
But there are still people who use it.
When they learned that it was Jia Ping'an's request, many of them mobilized their evil young men and offered rewards.
Not long after, two men were brought.
"Have you seen this?"
Jia Ping'an pointed at the coal essence.
A man stepped forward, picked up the coal jewelry and weighed it, "It's so light."
Another man sniffed, "The taste was a bit ripe."
He cautiously did not take the jewelry, but leaned over and sniffed a few times, and then said firmly: "It's Shi Ni!"
Hu Shang exploded immediately.
"This is a gem from the West, which can block the demon's peeping and block the arrival of bad luck..."
Drama master!
Jia Ping'an picked up a piece of jewelry and said, "I'll give you money for this one."
Then he knocked the jewelry on the hilt of the knife.
The jewelry cracked, no, it was broken.
"This is Shi Ni, this kind of gem... how much do you want?" Jia Ping'an asked with a smile.
Hu Shang's expression changed slightly, "This is a bad luck..."
"Dare to deceive me again and drive out of Chang'an!" Jia Ping'an clapped his hands.
The women were surprised, and someone immediately took the jewelry to play with it.
"The hands are all black."
Fuck!
When Jia Ping'an went out, there were immediately screams of scolding from inside.
"This profiteer, come and invites people from the market, there are scammers here!"
"Catch him!"
Hu Shang wanted to run away, but he underestimated the toughness of the Tang Dynasty women and was beaten up.
The women were in a good mood, and someone asked, "That boy just now...is thankful to him, otherwise we would have been fooled."
"Finish him and reward him!"
These are all women who are not short of money, and they come out to look for Master Jia everywhere.
"Not here."
Someone asked the servants waiting outside the door, and then said, "The one who came out before was Wu Yang Bo."
"It turned out to be him?"
A woman praised: "It turns out that he is a hundred riders who have learned a lot..."
...
Jia Ping'an returned to Baiqi, and Mingjing looked at him coldly without saying anything.
"This is..." Jia Ping'an felt that this girl was a little stingy.
Of course, the factor of his intentional teasing was ignored.
To be continued...
