Qī Cǎi Qílín

  Qilin of Seven Colors

  The man selling bracelets, about thirty years old, spoke and haggled with great skill. Just from his speech, it was clear that he was an experienced hand at small trade.

  He cried with a sad face, "I'm telling you, brother, this is too cruel. You don't have to cut me off at the waist, at least give me one-tenth of it? I want five hundred, but you only gave twenty, how can this be justified?"

  Tang Zhendong looked at his fake crying face, and at first glance, it was a sign that he wanted to scatter money. Tang Zhendong's heart suddenly moved, could this bracelet be a treasure? Was it really the Yunnan jade he said?

  Tang Zhen Dong took the chain that Yu Qing Ying was holding in her hand earlier, "Sell or not? If not, I'll leave."

  The man stretched out a palm, "Fifty, take it for fifty!"

  Tang Zhendong tossed the chain onto the table and pulled Yu Qingying just as she was about to turn around. Suddenly, he felt a surge of spiritual energy emanating from a package under the man's feet, which left Tang Zhendong stunned.

  Tang Zhendong remembered that his master had said: All things in the world have spiritual energy, the difference lies in the amount and thinness of the spiritual energy. Most things have very thin spiritual energy, so thin that people can't feel it. However, some treasures that defy the laws of nature are born with rich spiritual energy. Such things must not be missed when encountered, because not everyone can feel the spiritual energy inside the treasure.

  Tang Zhendong happened to be able, of course, this was not his innate ability, but the ability he had after being trained by Master Xu Zhuo.

  This is also why Tang Zhendong's use of ordinary pebbles in his rental house layout was still effective.

  "Is there anything else in your bag? Take it out and let me see."

  The man with the chain heard Tang Zhendong's words and took out a travel bag from under his feet, inside which there were dozens of chains, but compared to those on the table, they were much inferior in quality.

  However, Tang Zhendong caught sight of a black stone pendant. The stone was not completely black; in the light, it sometimes reflected a seven-colored glow, but if you weren't paying attention, it wasn't very noticeable.

  Tang Zhendong picked up this string of black stones and asked the chain man, "This won't be Burmese jade, will it?"

  The man holding the bracelet scratched his head, looking a bit embarrassed. "Brother, you're really good at joking. Jade is revered for its green color, but this black one... we insiders call it 'black gemstone'. Look, under the light, from a certain angle, it can reflect seven-colored glows!"

  This guy selling bracelets is really good at doing business, he can talk nonsense and won't let go of any opportunity. Tang Zhendong saw right through him, knowing he didn't understand anything and was just talking big.

  This string of black stone beads and some other stone products are all put together, obviously the ones that the bead seller thinks are not good enough, so they didn't dare to put them out for sale. Besides, when selling things, you should always pick out the best ones to sell first, and leave the worst ones till last.

  "Take it away, just sell this black rock as a black gemstone, go."

  Tang Zhendong pulled Yu Qingying away from the stall, ready to leave. Actually, Yu Qingying didn't have any intention of buying it either, she was just being playful and wanted to try it on, whether they bought it or not was fine.

  "Hey, you two wait a minute! Business is business, we need to discuss it. Don't rush off just yet. Fifty for one, seventy for two, don't go!"

  Tang Zhendong didn't really want to leave, since he had met the treasure, of course, he wanted to take it away. "I don't want to bother you either, two fifties, if you sell, then sell, if not, then leave."

  "Alright, come back and make a deal!" The chain man put on a pitiful look again, as if he had suffered a great loss. "Consider me a friend, it's really not profitable, come back when you need something else!"

  Tang Zhendong took out the money and paid the bill, "Alright, come back when you're free."

  Doing business is always like this: if you don't make money, I'll give you a loss, next time don't forget to introduce your friends over!

  Come on, who believes you? You've lost money and still want me to introduce friends to come. Do you want to lose everything back to your grandma's house? There's a saying: From Nanjing to Beijing, the buyer is not as clever as the seller.

  Tang Zhendong handed the agate stone he had picked up for Yu Qingying to her, and Yu Qingying immediately put it on her hand. It was crystal clear and very beautiful, with two hollow jade stones on both sides of the chain, called "Lu Lu Tong".

  "I really didn't expect you to be so good at bargaining, if I had asked him, he would have wanted 500, and it would have been great if I could have gotten it down to 300." Yu Qingying walked with Tang Zhendong, fondling the wristband he had bought for her, feeling extremely pleased.

  "Don't forget what I do for a living, I'm in the business of making small deals, his set is our specialty."

  "Hehe, a small cheat has met a big cheat." Yu Qingying said with a smile.

  "Wait, who's the big liar?" Tang Zhendong was about to grab Yu Qingying and give her a physical punishment, but suddenly remembered that they hadn't reached that kind of relationship yet.

  Qing Ying saw that Tang Zhen Dong did not catch up and felt slightly disappointed.

  "By the way, why did you buy a piece of black stone?"

  Tang Zhendong touched the black stones in his hand and put them on his wrist, "Don't you think men wearing a string of black stones are more masculine?"

  Tang Zhendong showed Yu Qingying the seven-colored stone on his wrist, perhaps because of the many lights in the surrounding houses, when Tang Zhendong swung his hand, the black stones on his wrist actually emitted a seven-colored glow.

  The black stone on Tang Zhendong's wrist is not an ordinary stone, its scientific name is called Seven Color Stone, of course some people also call it Qilin Stone, Spotted Color Stone, in Feng Shui, Feng Shui masters call it Fada Stone. It is a 70 million year old fossilized sea creature, the spotted color snail.

  This seven-colored stone can be said to be a kind of stone, people who don't understand it have no idea of its value, but in the hands of connoisseurs, its value is almost comparable to that of diamonds of the same size.

  A dozen or so diamonds slightly smaller than quail eggs, what price is that, I think everyone should have a rough idea.

  Tang Zhendong used the money to buy a big white cabbage and bought a jadeite cabbage of the same size. What a big bargain!

  Qingying pulled Tang Zhendong's hand and said, "It's a bit tough."

  What Qingying said was not the seven-color qilin stone in Tang Zhendong's hand, but rather Tang Zhendong's hand itself. Tang Zhendong had never done any fine work before and his hands, which were always working, can be imagined to be very rough.

  For Yu Qingying, the more such hands, the more they can reflect a strong and masculine flavor.

  After strolling back and forth on the long night market street, Yu Qingying was also a bit tired. "Let's go eat some barbecue!"

  The highlight of the night market is a special night market food stall, mainly offering barbecue and spicy skewers. Tang Zhendong ordered a lot of dishes, including five-flower pork, horse hoof fish dry, crispy bone, and lamb chops.

  "Come on, have a drink and celebrate our reunion!" Tang Zhendong raised his glass and clinked it against Yu Qingying's juice.
