Rebirth 13, starting from the big demolition treasure hunt

Chapter 328 Isn’t this a forced purchase?

These days, ordinary people rarely pick up stones. After all, the water level in the Han River has risen.

To pick up stones, you need to run a long way.

Most of the people who come to see the fun spend money to buy ready-made stones from those who sell them.

His father asked him to meet him and it was just a matter of convenience, so he agreed at that time.

In fact, in the demolition area, there were people who collected strange stones in the homes of the residents who had moved away. After they moved away, among the stones left in their homes, there were a few stones that penetrated the sky.

Wu Yuansheng had seen it before and thought it was worthless, so he didn't pick it up much.

After chatting with her father for a while, Yi Xiaoyue was curious about the strung stones and wanted to watch the fun, so she asked him to take her and Song Yuping to the stalls selling strange stones.

This was not her first time visiting a strange stone stall. She had seen it at the 11th X City Antique Exchange Meeting last year, and she also saw a meteorite.

"Let's see if there's anything you like. If so, I'll buy it for you!"

When Yi Xiaoyue was looking at the stones strung up by red ropes, Wu Yuansheng said to her with a smile.

Many people buy gifts when they give them.

"Yeah! I want what you picked up with your own hands!"

Picking up a sky-piercing stone may waste more than this amount of time and money.

"how much is it?"

The boss smiled and said to the person buying the stone.

"30 yuan, this stone is beautiful, the size is just right, and it looks like a wax stone that has been transformed into jade!"

"Boss, why does this stone have three holes?"

Just now, she had seen the introduction of Chuantian Festival on a piece of inkjet paper and knew the origin of the festival. Legend has it that the Chuantian Stone was picked up by Zheng Jiaofu from the river and given to the goddess of Hanshui. He did not buy it from someone else.

"If you think it would be better for me to pick it up with my own hands and give it to you, then wait until I pick it up before giving it to you."

The key is whether the thing is good and whether the other party likes it.

She turned her head to look at him and asked him seriously.

If the one you picked up doesn’t look good and the size isn’t right, it’s better to spend money to buy one that looks better and has a more suitable size.

These stones are not expensive, basically ten or twenty yuan each, the price of a bowl of beef noodles.

"Because it originally has three holes. I can't answer your question! There are also two holes, four holes, five holes or more holes!"

While they were watching, a stone buyer pointed to a small stone strung with a red string and said.

Just because Yi Xiaoyue didn't buy it, it didn't mean that others wouldn't buy it either. Someone took a fancy to the stone, and after bargaining with the stall owner, he spent money to buy it.

Wu Yuansheng took a look at the small stone with three holes. It was indeed a wax stone, relatively oily.

"Why don't you buy someone else's sky-piercing stone instead of the one you picked up with your own hands and give it to me?"

The man asked again.

In fact, he feels that whether he picks it up himself or buys it and gives it as a gift, the meaning is almost the same.

There is no answer to this question.

"Is it 10 yuan for a hole? Can it be sold for 25? If so, I'll take it!"

The person who bought the stone said to the boss again.

"Two dollars less! Give me 28."

"Just 25, here you go!"

The person who bought the stone took the stone directly, put 25 yuan on the table, turned around and left.

The stone seller watched him leave, shook his head, picked up the money and said nothing.

Situations like this, although not common, are not unheard of. It's only a few dollars. Some people make a mistake of dozens of dollars or more and take it away directly.

"Isn't this a forced purchase?"

Yi Xiaoyue also saw this situation and said to him.

"Yes! There are many people like this! Let's go to other stalls to have a look!"

As he spoke, Wu Yuansheng took her hand and walked towards a stall selling paper-cuts. Paper-cutting is also a traditional culture.

He also knew the owner who sold paper-cuts. He heard others say his surname was He, and he had seen him selling paper-cuts when he went to the antique market in his previous life.

“Let’s see if there’s anything you like!”

As soon as they arrived at Boss He's stall, he greeted them.

"Okay! Let's take a look first."

He also said to him.

After saying that, the three of them looked at his stall.

There are many types of paper-cuts, including window flowers, wall flowers, offering flowers, festive flowers, lantern flowers, etc.

The patterns include characters, flowers, auspicious words, birds and animals, etc.

"Boss, the paper-cut I bought you just now is missing a rabbit!"

While they were watching, a woman about forty years old came over, placed a paper-cut in front of Boss He's stall, and said to him.

"No way! All my paper-cuts come in sets, how could there be less?"

He said to the woman without looking at the paper-cut she put over.

"It's my fault that I didn't look carefully at the time. Didn't you say that you cut all these paper cuts yourself? Now you can help me cut a rabbit again, and I'll add five dollars!"

The woman in her forties said to Boss He again.

"You come over in the afternoon. I will bring one over in the afternoon. I don't have time to cut it now. I have to do business!"

He said to the woman again.

"I don't have time to come over in the afternoon, so you should cut it for me now, or I'll return all the previous paper cuts!"

Hearing what the woman said, he looked around and found that there were no zodiac paper-cuts on the stall.

The one the woman bought was missing the rabbit set.

"Boss He, if there is a rabbit missing, you can cut one for her. It only takes 10 minutes at most."

The boss selling strange stones next to him saw what was going on here and said to him.

"Yes! Don't you have scissors and paper on your stall? Help her cut one out on the spot so that everyone can see your craftsmanship!"

Others watching also followed suit.

"I don't want to cut it now. If you can't come and get it in the afternoon, I will refund your money for eleven paper cuts!"

Boss He looked at the woman and said to her.

"Okay! Then you can refund my money, I don't want it anymore!"

Next, he checked the paper-cuts placed on the stall surface. After confirming the quantity and the paper was not damaged, he returned the money to the woman.

I guess he couldn't cut it out. If he could, he would have cut out this rabbit paper cut on the spot.

In fact, as for Boss He, Wu Yuansheng heard others say in private that he was just a "half-full" paper-cutting master.

He can cut some simple paper-cut patterns, but he cannot cut those with complicated shapes.

The zodiac paper-cuts that the woman took out were very complicated. For example, the "zodiac ox" paper-cut on the top, in addition to the ox, there were also children sitting on the back, surrounded by flowers, plants, butterflies and other patterns.

"Help me cut out a dragon and phoenix pattern on the spot, and I'll pay you 100 yuan!"

After the woman took the money and left, Wu Yuansheng looked at Boss He, pointed at a paper-cut placed on his stall, and said to him half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"Isn't there a ready-made one? It's too troublesome to cut another one. If you want this one, I'll sell it to you for 30 yuan!"

Boss He looked at him and said to him.

"Lao He, they want you to cut one on the spot, don't you hear me?"

The boss selling stones next to him said to him again.

He should also know his background.
