Chapter 221: Gu Xuemin
"How is it? Do you want it? This must be a treasure!" The old aunt looked at He Yuzhu who was silent and asked nervously.
"Oh, if you want..." He Yuzhu held a palm-sized red brocade box with a blue-light bead inside.
He Yuzhu gently picked up the bead and looked at it carefully.
The beads are small, about the same size as eggs, with a blue-white appearance and a crack in the middle, as if two hemispheres are stuck together.
And it also glows, which is interesting.
Is this a night pearl?
For a moment, He Yuzhu remembered that the book he had read before was also one of the books he had taken back from his old aunt's house. There was indeed a detailed introduction to this here.
He Yuzhu didn't pay attention to it before because someone had written it with a pen. He thought it was an essay and didn't pay attention. Now that I found the bead, I remembered it.
This is indeed a luminous pearl, and its background is not small, because it is the luminous pearl that Cixi stuffed into his mouth after he died.
Legend has it that this bead is divided into two pieces. When separated, it is transparent and does not emit light, but when closed, it emits a cold green light.
A person's hair can be clearly illuminated within a hundred steps. Cixi held it in her mouth, and it is said that it can preserve the appearance forever and prevent the corpse from decaying.
But after it was taken away, Cixi's body quickly decomposed.
This bead was stolen by Sun Dianying at that time. Later, Sun Dianying had a great influence because of the theft of Dongling. In order not to be held accountable, he used the stolen treasures to bribe people everywhere.
This bead was finally given to someone and then lost. I didn't expect it to appear here.
The beads emit soft blue light and are crystal clear inside.
There are many stones that can emit light, and fluorite can emit light, but it is different from these beads, and fluorite is not so bright.
Because fluorite can only emit weak light when heated or rubbed.
His hands are always glowing, and they are very bright. This is interesting!
"How about it, young man, do you want it?"
He Yuzhu said nothing and nodded to express his acceptance.
This bead is not fluorite, it is diamond!
Since the diamond is so big, it is valuable, and this bead was valued in the Republic of China, and its value was 10.8 million taels of silver!
How much could this appreciate in value if you keep it until later? It’s a worthless treasure! And there’s a piece of history in it, so it’s even more valuable.
No, this bead was left in the mouth of a dead man.
Thinking of this, He Yuzhu quickly put the beads in the box, took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands, and asked the impatient old woman beside him: "Mom, how much do you want to sell this beads for? Can I take it back for my children to play with if it shines?"
"
If he bought it, he would lose space and it would be impossible to take it out. He didn't dare to let Meihua play with it.
"One hundred, no, two hundred..." The old aunt thought for a long time, but in the end she couldn't figure out the value. This bead will shine, and it is a treasure at first glance. If it is sold cheaply, it will be a loss.
"No, although the beads can shine, they have no other use than to illuminate them. They are not even taken out for children to play with.
Besides, two hundred is too expensive, forget it, I don’t want it anymore.”
Seeing that He Yuzhu was about to leave, the old lady quickly stopped him.
"It's easy. Can you negotiate the price? I said it's high. You can tell me more."
"thirty."
The old lady was shocked and said: "What? Thirty!"
Then he shook his head and said, "No, no, I'll sell it for the money, but my son won't let me."
He Yuzhu secretly laughed inwardly, pretending to be polite and cruelly raising the price: "Let's do this, eighty, you can explain it to your son."
Seeing that the old aunt was still hesitating, He Yuzhu said with more strength: "If you don't sell it, I'll leave. You can keep this thing. Maybe someone will care about these broken beads in the future. What can these broken beads be used for? They can only shine and cannot be eaten."
Drink, keep it for what, eighty yuan is a lot."
These words can only be used to coax an old lady who knows nothing, but if a knowledgeable person sees it, she will be scolded to death.
old aunt
After thinking about it, there was no point in keeping it, and eighty yuan was a lot, so he said cruelly: "Okay, then you give me the money..."
He Yuzhu smiled inwardly, pretending to feel pain and gave the money to the old lady: "I feel a bit at a loss..."
The old lady counted the money and said with a smile on her face: "What's the loss? Young man, you've made a lot of money. I heard my son say that this pearl is called the Night Pearl, and it's very valuable."
There is someone knowledgeable!
I wonder if your son will be furious when he comes back and finds out that you sold the Luminous Pearl for eighty yuan.
Probably not, haha, don’t worry, it’s yours now anyway, it’s a priceless treasure.
He Yuzhu was in a good mood and chatted with the old lady again. He asked if there was anything else at home, and he took it all.
After hearing this, the old aunt went to the courtyard and brought out a large porcelain vat, saying that this was also left by her wife. It had been kept in the courtyard before. She had forgotten this last time He Yuzhu came.
He Yuzhu took a look and saw that this was a porcelain tank used for raising fish in the courtyard of a wealthy family in ancient times.
The exterior of the porcelain vat has a beautiful pattern of paint and glaze, but the inside is so dirty that nothing can be seen. I turned it over and looked at the bottom. After careful inspection, I found that it was from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.
It’s not bad, I’ll put it at home for raising fish in the future.
Afterwards we chatted, gave the old lady a dollar, and took the large porcelain fish tank.
When everything was over, He Yuzhu looked at the man standing at the door of the east wing.
This man had been looking at He Yuzhu before.
I saw that he was neatly dressed, about forty years old, with a thin face and a hooked nose, and black-rimmed glasses. He was also polite and looked like an intellectual.
However, this man gave He Yuzhu the impression of being a bit inconsistent. He seemed gentle and gentle, but the cold light in his eyes from time to time did not make him look like a good person.
There is something weird about this guy!
Others can't feel it. After He Yuzhu was strengthened by the system, his intuition was very sharp and he could see the slightest movement.
Seeing that He Yuzhu suddenly stopped talking and kept looking at the residents of this hospital, the old aunt immediately smiled and said, "Hey, when did Xue Min come back? He came back early today."
Gu Xuemin immediately smiled and said, "I've been back for a while. What is Aunt He doing, giving you both things and money?"
When she heard this, how could Aunt He tell the truth? She immediately waved her hand and said, "It's okay, a relative of mine came to see me... When he saw this fish tank, he said he liked it, so I gave it to him."
You have nothing to do and you are busy with your business."
"Oh. It's okay, Aunt He, you are busy, I will go back to the house first."
Before leaving, Gu Xuemin took a deep look at He Yuzhu. Did this man find something? Why did he feel so frightened when he stared at him?
"It's okay, just ignore him. That's just Xue Min. He has a dull temper and is not easy to talk to. I've been living with him for so many years, so I'm used to it."
"Yeah!" He Yuzhu nodded, chatted for a few more words, then put the fish tank on the back seat of the car, said goodbye to the old lady, pushed the car and walked out.
After He Yuzhu left, the old lady in the courtyard also returned. A figure flashed past the door of the east wing and walked out of the courtyard quickly and briskly.
After He Yuzhu pushed the car out, he walked towards the small alley, wanting to put the fish tank in first and then drive home.
As soon as he entered the alley, He Yuzhu paused and heard slight footsteps following behind him.
Then He Yuzhu walked forward normally again.
After walking for a while, I realized that the person behind me was following me.
Who is this person?
What do you want to do?
Do you want to rob?
Don’t you want to live anymore?
He Yuzhu was walking normally, but suddenly looked back while taking out a cigarette from his pocket.
Gu Xuemin!
