Chapter 221 (2/2)
His fussy voice also attracted Jiang Wan's attention. Seeing the ruby he held in his hand, he leaned over and asked, ”can I have a look?”
As soon as Qiao Qian saw it was Jiang Wan, he quickly offered it to him with both hands.
Jiang Wan took the ruby in her hand and looked at it again and again. She found that the quality of the ruby was almost the same as that Xiao Ruixuan had taken home before. In the sunshine, the rose luster could be seen in the dazzle. It was the best of the best
.
”You say there are five hundred such gems?” Seeing the man's nervous face, Jiang Wan threw the jewel back to him. ”Make a price, I'll take it all!”
”All... All?” The man didn't expect that Jiang Wan would be so grand, but he said, ”I'm going to sell 521!”
According to the present price of five Liang silver per mu, this gem can be exchanged for ten mu of fertile land!
”Fifty is fifty!” Jiang Wan gave a little smile, not vague.
But the man hesitated: ”I... I just boasted a little... With my financial resources, how can I win 500... I just won 20...”
Daren Qing, the 500 he said just now are just bluffing.
”Where did you see the five hundred?” Jiang Wan also subconsciously looked at the street behind her, which had not come to rush. Her intuition told her that there should not be such a good appearance in this street.
”Hey hey, young lady, you have good eyesight!” Although the man looked at the scene in front of him
A young woman, however, dressed up as a woman, said with flattery, ”I brought this thing back from Fujian. In half a month, there will be a jewelry appreciation meeting. I want to take a chance and think that if I can pay high prices for these 20 rubies, maybe I will have more money to collect more jewelry.”
When he said this, the man became more and more excited, as if there were Jinshan and Yinshan waiting for him to move.
Fujian? Jewelry appreciation conference?
I don't know why, but Jiang Wan suddenly thinks of Xiao Ruixuan, the merchant ship robbed by the pirates in Southern Fujian.
Could it be that coincidence?
”When is the jewelry appreciation meeting you said? I want to open my eyes too!” Jiang Wan also smiles to that humanity.
”Not everyone can go to this appreciation meeting,” the man took out a small wooden plate carved with a font size from his body. ”You have to have this to get in!”
”Why? I have a wooden card, too! ” Qiao Qian looked as like as two peas of wood, and he pulled out a piece of the same piece from his body.
This is August 18. When Kawasaki was in the Guanchao Pavilion, he said he would take it to play. He didn't take it seriously at that time. He took it and put it in his pocket.
As soon as the man saw that Qiao Qian had the same piece, he said excitedly: ”it's just right, Mr. Qiao Wu, why don't we go to Fujian together and take care of each other all the way!” Qiao Qian is noncommittal. After all, Fujian is so far away.
As soon as the man saw it, he laughed and turned the topic. Looking at Jiang Wan, he asked, ”I just don't know if the young lady really wants to buy my 20 rubies?”
