Chapter 54: One stone stirs up a thousand waves(2/2)

"Dad, it's so late at night. You've been tired all day, so you might as well go and rest. I'll take Mr. Lin there."

Mr. Zhuo chuckled and said:

"You don't understand. What this mountain dragon is carrying is a treasure that is seen only once in ten years. Sun Mazi will probably have to show off his special skills this time. This is a rare sight. It doesn't matter if I sleep less today.

, it’s also good to open your eyes.”

Hearing what Mr. Zhuo said, the people next to him also believed it, so they gathered around Lin Fengjin and Mr. Zhuo and walked straight to Sun Mazi. The distance was not far, and it was actually inside the Snake Market.

Sun Mazi also relied on this snake hunter to make a living for his whole life. Among his three sons and two daughters, one son and one daughter were bitten to death by the snake hunter. This shows that there is a saying that "earth pots will inevitably break at the edge of the well."

, the general will eventually die on the battlefield" still makes sense.

However, although he paid a very heavy price, Sun Mazi had been doing this business all his life, and at least he was able to buy a well-off family with two or three sets of shops. He also occupied a prime position in the snake market, and the whole family was considered well-off.

It was lost. According to Sun Mazi's words, the lives of the son and the daughter should be regarded as sacrifices to the mountain god.

It is said that Xunzhou City does not close the city gate, and there are customers coming through the city from day to night. They all come for this specialty, so the fixed stalls in the Snake Market close very late, but at this time

It was almost time to close, and only a few shops would do all-night business. Suddenly, I saw a group of people swarming in noisily, and the crowds were loud. The merchants were well-informed, and they were not surprised but happy. Because there is such a thing

Under certain circumstances, it usually means "a big job".

At this time, the business was also quite deserted, so many stall owners came out one after another to take a look. Asking what happened, when the people next to them said that they were talking about the top quality Shanlong, they immediately started shouting to see the goods, but Lin Fengjin did not.

He came to sell it, but to find Sun Mazi to concoct this top-notch snake, so he just smiled and waved.

Suddenly, there was a stall owner who heard the words "Excellent Snake Hunting" and his heart warmed up. However, he had only been open for two years. He must not be as good as others in terms of reputation and so on, so his business was a bit bleak.

Therefore, at this time, there was no such thing as a "store treasure" to attract people's attention. I thought about it in my mind and shouted out without even looking at the goods:

"Two thousand five hundred taels! Can you sell the two thousand five hundred taels?"

As soon as these words were shouted out, a group of people became agitated, and they all looked at Lin Fengjin's face. For them, to be honest, this was already an astonishing sum of money, but for Lin Fengjin,

But these people didn't know: Don't say two thousand five hundred taels, even if you add the word "ten thousand" after it, you can't fool Lin Fengjin, the true god of wealth. They just smiled and waved, and continued walking to Sun's shop.

The rest of the stall owners were also moved by the news. You should know that buying a top-quality snake for two thousand five hundred taels is already a fair price. However, the seller still seemed indifferent, so they crowded over to see if it was worth two thousand five hundred taels.

What does the Xunshe look like that can't even be bought, so in an instant, the door of Sun's shop was surrounded by people.

Sun Mazi had fallen asleep at this time, but he was quarreled by people outside again. It is rare for an elderly person to be a little sleepy. He opened his mouth with a gloomy face and wanted to curse, but unexpectedly his son ran in and said urgently:

"Dad, Dad! Someone outside has caught a top-notch mountain dragon and wants you to concoct it by naming it."

After hearing this, Sun Mazi wiped his face with his palms and said in surprise:

"The best mountain dragon? Don't you get it wrong?"

The stupid son was stunned and said:

"I, I really haven't seen it."

Sun Mazi was so angry that he almost slapped his mouth:

"What nonsense are you talking about when you haven't seen it?"

As a result, the stupid son said aggrievedly:

"A lot of people say it's the best snake hunter, is it still fake?"

Sun Mazi was stunned, and hurriedly dressed up, stood up and glared at his son:

"Why don't you take me out quickly?"

As soon as Sun Mazi came out, he naturally saw the crowds at the top of his shop. There were many colleagues and enemies, but many of his colleagues also shamelessly came over. After all, people have different faces.

After exchanging greetings, he called his wife to bring her a stool and served tea one by one. The Chinese custom is to pay attention to foreplay, rather than talking directly to the point.

It's just that Sun Mazi's eyes were so poisonous. He had already looked into the snake cage that Lin Fengjin was carrying. Although it was covered with black cloth, it seemed to be able to penetrate through. When he heard the snake inside,

The cage made a loud banging sound, and every time I heard a sound, I frowned.

After a while of greetings, Mr. Zhuo knew that he was acquainted with Sun Mazi. They had known each other for twenty or thirty years, so he coughed and said:

"Old Sun, this is Scholar Lin. He went on a study tour and passed through our Xunzhou, but he was accidentally rewarded by the mountain god with a top-quality mountain snake. It would be a pity to use it directly for brewing. After all, this mountain dragon

It should be something that is rare to see in ten years. I guessed that you were the only one with this ability, so I came to look for it overnight."

Sun Mazi said in surprise:

"A rare item that has been rare for ten years? I have to take a closer look at this."

At this time, the people nearby also started making noises and said loudly:

"Let's all take a look, it's also an eye-opener!"

"Yes, Mr. Zhuo has lived for eighty-five years. Don't you still believe it? He's in a crystal vat!"

"Yes, yes, Mazi Sun, you can't just focus on yourself."

At this time, there were already things like glass. However, the price was a bit expensive and it was not yet popular enough to make window glass. However, shops like these that bought and sold snakes usually had them, so Sun Mazi brought them out.

A crystal jar------actually a large glass fish tank. There is a tight-fitting lid on top, but next to it is a glass spout similar to the spout of a thermos. I don't know what it is used for.

Then Sun Mazi took the snake basket from Lin Fengjin's hand and loosened the tight lid. He first held it with his hand and put it into the large glass fish tank. Then when he released it, he pushed the snake basket.

He fell sideways, and at the same time, Sun Mazi's hand quickly retracted from the large glass fish tank and closed the lid of the fish tank.

After the snake basket that had been placed vertically fell sideways, the lid was also loosened. When the top-quality snake inside saw the light, it naturally swam out and angrily swam away in the tank. The people next to it suddenly said "

"Wow!" I exclaimed, and the praises came one after another:

"It's really the best mountain dragon! Tsk tsk, two crowns! I think dragon horns are about to come out."

"Look at this purple body. It's really purple and gold armor."

"I think Mr. Zhuo just said it in a conservative way. It happens once in ten years. I think it's only once in twenty years."

"Yes, the mountain dragon that was born three years ago is said to be of the highest quality, but compared with this one, its energy and spirit are completely suppressed. If this mountain dragon is used to combine medicine, the medicinal effect is that of ordinary mountain dragons.

Ten times as powerful as a dragon!"

"Among the mountain dragons I have seen, only the golden-patterned mountain dragon that appeared fifteen years ago can be compared with it. But that golden-patterned mountain dragon disobeyed the mountain god and was struck by lightning, so it was much cheaper.

The third child in the family is half dead when I take it. In terms of appearance, the golden mountain dragon is better than this one, and in terms of energy and spirit, it is not too far off."

"..."

The shopkeeper who had never seen the real thing before directly offered a high price of 2,500 silver. His name was Xu Meng. At this time, he looked at the mountain dragon carefully and said flatly to Lin Fengjin:

"Four thousand taels, Mr. Xiucai. Even if you travel all over Xunzhou City, you can't give me a higher price. To be honest, I want to put up a big sign for my store. Otherwise, I won't be able to give you a higher price."

If you are willing to mess with money like this, I will knock on the Deng family's bank and give you some money."

Lin Fengjin still smiled and shook his head, and everyone was in an uproar. Unexpectedly, the scholar was so insecure that he seemed to be at home waiting for help. But Xu Meng had no choice.

I could only sigh, but I couldn't bear to leave. I stared at this top-notch mountain dragon, as if I had met my first love.

Lin Fengjin said to Sun Mazi at this time:

"I wonder if sir can concoct this hunting snake? I also know that this matter is a bit dangerous, so I just ask for the price."

Sun Mazi clasped his hands behind his back and walked back and forth around the big fish tank several times before frowning and saying:
Chapter completed!
