Time and Space Tavern

Chapter 6 Selling Jade
The jade pendant Guan Yu gave to Qiao Mu is a white dragon-shaped jade pendant.

The reason why he gave it to Qiao Mu was that on the one hand, he had the intention of befriending the "immortal" Qiao Mu, and on the other hand, it was inconvenient for him to carry it because of his status.

Qiao Mu wrapped the jade pendant carefully, and went to a large-scale jade shop in the city.

"Hello, sir, is there any jewelry you want to see?" the beautiful female shopping guide asked politely.

Qiao Mu coughed lightly and asked, "I want to ask, do you buy jade wares here?"

The smile on the female shopping guide's face remained unchanged, and she said, "Sorry, we don't have this business for now."

"Is your manager here?" Qiao Mu asked.

"If you have a large order, you can contact our manager, but we really don't recycle jade in our store." The smile on the female shopping guide's face softened.

"Okay." Qiao Mu walked out helplessly.

Fortunately, there are not many jade shops on this street, and he soon arrived at the second one.This time he kept an eye out and went directly to the store manager, but the answer he got was exactly the same.

After Qiao Mu failed to return from three jade shops in a row, and gradually became discouraged, a middle-aged man with a wretched appearance stopped him and asked with a smile, "Young man wants to sell jade?"

Qiao Mu nodded: "You accept?"

The middle-aged man nodded and led him to a small shop.It was only then that Qiao Mu noticed that he had missed such a small shop.But think about it, who can notice such an inconspicuous small restaurant.

"Take out the jade and have a look." The middle-aged man sat on the seat and reached out to Qiao Mu.

Qiao Mu glanced at the open door, took out the package, and spread it out on the dilapidated table.A dragon-shaped jade pendant carved from white jade was revealed.

The moment the jade pendant came out, the middle-aged man's hands trembled imperceptibly, but he quickly controlled it.

He asked calmly, "Where did you get this jade pendant?"

"Heirloom." Qiao Mu replied.

"Heh," the man chuckled, "This jade pendant has been carved for less than 30 years, how do you pass it down from your ancestors?"

Without waiting for Qiao Mu to respond, he continued: "However, the material of this jade pendant is decent, and the carving is not bad, so it can be sold for a good price."

Qiao Mu doesn't understand jade at all, but he just understands that what Guan Yu can produce is by no means ordinary.After hearing that "it can be sold for a good price", he couldn't restrain his joy, and said, "Then how much can you offer?"

The man holds up a finger.

"One hundred million?" Qiao Mu asked cautiously.

"1000 million, sir, [-] yuan!" The man glanced at Qiao Mu with an idiot-like gaze, and said, "Don't worry, my price, Mr. Tang, is absolutely fair, and no one can deceive you!"

Qiao Mu's mouth was almost crooked.This is the jade pendant given to him by Guan Erye, this guy wants to abduct him for 1000 yuan!

He snorted, quickly put away the jade pendant, put it in his arms, turned and left.

"Hey, don't leave. If you are not satisfied with the price, you can talk about it again." The middle-aged man chased him out.

He decided that this was a black-hearted businessman, how could Qiao Mu pay attention to him.He trotted away from the middle-aged man who had raised the price to 1 yuan, and returned to the tavern.

Looking at the shriveled wallet, he sighed helplessly.

"Maybe I have to ask her for help, and I don't know if she is willing." Qiao Mu thought to himself.

A beautiful image of a girl appeared in his mind involuntarily.It was an extremely beautiful girl with a delicate face, long hair in a shawl, and a gentle smile to everyone.

The girl's name is Tang Wei, she is Qiao Mu's classmate, and the goddess that countless boys at school admire.She maintains a good-natured warmth to all, and that not-so-obtrusive alienation.

The two had some interactions, but after learning her identity, Qiao Mu took the initiative to put an end to some unrealistic fantasies in his heart.

The Tang family is the leading big family in Anbei Province, with members from the military, government, business, and business, and she is a member of the Tang family, and her father is the helm of Tang's Real Estate, the largest real estate company in Anbei Province.

According to Qiao Mu's knowledge, Tang Wei's family also deals in jade ornaments. Back then, a classmate bought a gift for the family, and she helped to buy a good jade ornament at a low price.

"She shouldn't refuse such a small matter." Qiao Mu couldn't suppress another thought in his heart.He opened the chat software on his phone and clicked on the dialog with Tang Wei.

He edited and edited for 3 minutes, and finally sent it out.

While he waited anxiously, he soon received a reply: "Are you in Dingbei City?"

Qiao Mu was a little bit ashamed while secretly delighted.It seemed that Tang Wei really didn't pay attention to him, otherwise she wouldn't have known that he was still fooling around.

"Well, can you help me introduce the family heirloom of our old Qiao family, which is said to have been worn by Guan Yu, and the quality is guaranteed to be good." Qiao Mu replied.

……

"The fairy grass milk tea shop at the entrance of Gumu Street, I'll wait for you."

Arranging a meeting place, Qiao Mu couldn't help clenching his fists and laughing.

Secret love is a poisonous snake that bites people, as long as you let go of your heart a little bit and get a little response, you can get a huge sense of satisfaction.

Qiao Mu washed up a bit, changed into an expensive dress worth 400 yuan that he bought specially for job hunting, touched his wallet, but was still reluctant to take a taxi.

It was half an hour later when he arrived at the place they agreed on by bus.

There was a milk tea shop at the entrance of Gumu Street. When Qiao Mu walked past, he saw several young men who kept glancing inside, and realized that Tang Wei must be inside.

"Sorry, I'm a bit late." Qiao Mu said.

Tang Wei stood up with a smile, pulled her hair back from her forehead, and said, "It's okay, I haven't been here for long."

She said: "I came here to look for my uncle, and I just saw your news. It's a coincidence."

Qiao Mu nodded, with some inexplicable regret in his heart: No wonder the goddess has such a good date, it turned out to be a coincidence.

"My uncle is an expert in jade. I'll let him take a look for you." Tang Wei said.

"Thank you, how about I buy you a cup of milk tea?" Qiao Mu said.

"Then I'll be disrespectful." Tang Wei smiled.

Tang Wei's promise made Qiao Mu excited, but he understood that Tang Wei did this not necessarily because she had a good impression of him, but just because she was such a person. She seemed very easy-going when getting along with anyone. Put pressure on the other party.However, her family, like an invisible mountain, crushed most people's confidence.If it wasn't for Qiao Mu's miraculous experience before, I'm afraid he still has a little inferiority complex and suppresses all his emotions deep in his heart.

"A cup..." Qiao Mu turned his head.

"Strawberry smoothie."

"A glass of strawberry milkshake and a glass of lemon juice." Qiao Mu said to the clerk.

"Hi, 28 in total."

Qiao Mu was about to pay, but when he took out his wallet, he found that there was only crumpled ten yuan in his wallet.

He came here to inherit his uncle's inheritance, and he brought a total of more than 1000 yuan. These days, he spent more than 1000 yuan on miscellaneous things for Guan Erye, and the rest was 200 yuan from the card. , only the ten yuan in hand.

"This milk tea is really expensive, you damn profiteer!" Qiao Mu cursed secretly.

Tang Wei seemed to see Qiao Mu's predicament, took out a pink wallet, took out 50 yuan and handed it to the clerk, turned her head and smiled at Qiao Mu: "This is counted as a loan from you, and I will sell it later. Pay it back."

"Definitely." Qiao Mu was embarrassed.

All the onlookers around cast contemptuous glances at him: Inviting such a beautiful girl to drink milk tea, and asking the girl to pay for it, what a fool!

Under a series of contemptuous gazes, Qiao Mu walked out of the milk tea shop with Tang Wei side by side with the chilled lemon juice in his hand.
