After the meal, the village chief's house was packed with people, whether they were squatting, standing, or sitting.
As she glanced at him, Zuo Ling's heart pounded wildly.
I'm rich! I'm rich! I'm rich...
The villagers were holding in their arms or lying on the ground; there were at least twenty pieces of energy crystals.
Moreover, the quality is astonishing.
Zuo Ling suspected that this place was once a gathering place for people with superpowers.
Otherwise, it's impossible to explain why so many energy crystals are clustered together.
Zuo Ling was glad that she arrived at the right time and seized the initiative.
This is what is meant by the will of Heaven!
Zuo Ling didn't hold back and offered a price based on what ordinary people would pay for jade.
Beautiful, oily, and translucent pieces are more expensive, especially the larger ones.
The ones that are hazy, have poor color, and are small are cheaper.
A pair of palm-sized, bright red smiling Buddha statues, 3000 yuan.
Another purple Laozi, 3500 yuan.
Most others cost three to five hundred, while there were six or seven items costing over a thousand.
The villagers were so excited that their eyes lit up, and they were like they had been injected with chicken blood, rummaging through the village looking for stones.
Inspired, the village chief's wife took off her grandson's cool pillow cover.
Zuo Ling glanced at it, but didn't dare to look at it for long, and immediately offered 1500.
It was a bluish-white energy crystal with very poor quality.
Even if it is bluish-white, it is still classified as a white energy crystal, which is the second-highest grade of energy crystal.
The village chief's wife was overjoyed. "My goodness! My grandson's head is so precious. He's been using it as a pillow for so long, who knew it would be worth so much money? Luckily, it didn't break."
The village chief's face lit up; a distinguished guest had arrived in the village!
In reality, none of the stones were as good as the one the little boy brought.
Even the bluish-white energy crystals in the village chief's house were far inferior to the two pieces the little boy had.
Although I couldn't see it clearly, I could confirm that there were two black and white energy crystal companions. Their texture was almost identical to the eyes of the Bodhisattva in the ancestral hall, so they might have come from the same energy crystal.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have almost vomited blood after just one glance.
Although the stones in the village chief's house made her feel very uncomfortable, they weren't enough to make her vomit blood.
The difference in energy is obvious at a glance.
Fearing that it would attract attention, Zuo Ling didn't dare to give more, and couldn't help but feel guilty.
With a sigh, I decided to consider myself an antique dealer.
Antique dealers simply buy what they don't want and throw in what they do want.
The extras are the most valuable.
If there's a real one, there's no need to accept a fake one; Zuo Ling doesn't have the inclination to be a sucker.
After truly finishing collecting, he said to the village chief:
"Uncle, I have something to do, so I'll have to go now. I'll come back tomorrow or the day after."
Inspired by the village chief's wife's act of pulling out the pillow, many villagers launched a new round of treasure hunting.
The village chief wanted to say, "Young lady, why don't you wait a little longer?"
Zuo Ling stopped her immediately: "Uncle, I don't have any money. Wait until I get the money back before you take it."
The village chief pursed his lips, "What's the point of talking when we're broke?"
He then said, "Girl, you must come! We're waiting for you."
The eager, expectant gazes clearly reflected the two large characters for "Chinese currency".
"Okay, okay, Uncle, I'll definitely come."
As the car drove quite a distance, Zuo Ling saw in her rearview mirror that some villagers were chasing her car like madmen.
Zuo Ling didn't stop; she was going to come back again anyway.
I tuned to the music station, humming a little tune, and happily made my way to Jincheng.
The mountain path was difficult to traverse, consisting of tunnels, ups and downs, and steep cliffs on both sides.
Taking advantage of the open space and the absence of people, they found a spot that blocked the view, tied the three corpses in the space to stones, and threw them into the deep pool to keep the fish and shrimp company.
I've put up with them for so long, and now that they're gone, I feel so much better.
Zuo Ling searched the body and took away the identification documents. The face was also slashed all over, so even if the body was discovered, it would be impossible to tell who was who.
We arrived in Jincheng at 3 p.m.
Zuo Ling went straight to a craft shop; she had been there a few days ago.
The shop is quite large, and judging by its age, it has been in business for many years.
I took out my phone, opened a few photos, and asked the shop owner:
"I need to make these things. Take a look and see if you can make them."
The shop owner's eyesight was terrible; he held a magnifying glass for a long time, squinted, and put down his phone.
"Yes, you can make it. Do you need it urgently?"
"urgent."
The shop owner held up three fingers: "30,000."
Zuo Ling didn't haggle and paid directly by scanning the QR code.
The shop owner liked customers who were so straightforward, and his facial features softened considerably: "Come pick up the goods at this time tomorrow."
I won't ask any more questions.
Zuo Ling gave him the photo and dimensions, said nothing more, and turned to leave.
Some things are better left unsaid than said.
As Zuo Ling walked away, the shop owner muttered to himself, "How did such a young girl end up in this line of work?"
He mistook Zuo Ling for a tomb raider.
I'm guessing, it's not too far off from what Zuo Ling is going to do.
Zuo Ling found a chain hotel near the craft shop, took a shower, ate something, and went straight to sleep.
I've been traveling for days and didn't get a good night's rest last night. I'm really exhausted.
I slept until noon the next day.
When I woke up, I was dazed and felt like I was still going through a tunnel, with all I could hear was the whooshing sound of tunnels going through.
The vastness of the motherland and the beauty of its mountains and rivers kept Zuo Ling, who rarely travels far, in a state of great excitement.
She pushed herself too hard, always hoping to travel to as many places as possible, see as many sights as possible, and collect as many energy crystals as possible before natural disasters.
The entire Jinzhou region was traversed in nearly twenty days; the timeframe was far too tight!
After washing up, I ate a sausage rice bowl to fill my stomach and drank some soda to perk myself up.
After finishing our meal, we checked out of the store and headed to the craft shop to pick up our purchases, arriving more than an hour earlier than the agreed time.
Based on experience, the shop has plenty of time to make calls.
