Tomb Raider System of Myriad Realms

Chapter 144 Treasure Map (6)

"Sir, you want to see the treasure map. Where did you get the news?" The shopkeeper asked again what the shopkeeper asked before. Can you see such a precious treasure as the treasure map?
"No matter where I got the news, I have my own channels. If you want to ask the name of the family background, to be honest, it is completely different from whether you have the ability to win the treasure map. You can't guarantee that the customer has reported the name. It must be true, do we have to get to the bottom of it? Just like I don’t ask where I got this treasure map, it’s a reason. Let’s respect each other and trade fairly.”

Just now when I received Qian Jinjin's urging message, I knew that this girl couldn't hold back anymore, and some things should be resolved quickly.

Originally, the shopkeeper had a lot to ask, but after hearing Zhang Qiling's words, he nodded and smiled: "Mr. is right, since you are sincere, please move to the back!"

This kind of important business, looking at important things, how can you just look at them in the front hall?Isn't that a joke?
The shopkeeper led the way in front, and led Zhang Qiling into the backyard, to the more ornately decorated living room in the back.

"Sit here, Mr. Zhang!" The shopkeeper asked Zhang Qiling to sit down at the Kung Fu tea table made of root carvings, and made a cup of tea for Zhang Qiling himself: "Please!"

The tea cup is small, just enough for one mouthful.

I scanned it with the artifact worn on the eyes, and it turned out that the small teacup in my hand is also an antique. Although it is from the late Qing Dynasty, most people would not be willing to take it out and use it!
Seeing Zhang Qiling staring at the small teacup in his hand, the shopkeeper asked, "Mr. Zhang, are you interested in this teacup?"

By referring to himself as Mr. Zhang, he knew that the waiter had already told him his name just now. Fortunately, he was going to pretend to ask again in the outer hall just now. Zhang Qiling knew that some people looked down on others, so he couldn't care less.

"The cup is as small as a walnut, but the plate is like a full moon. It should be small and shallow. If it is small, it will be drained in one sip, and if it is shallow, the water will not leave the bottom." Zhang Qiling drank it down, took the cup upside down, and looked at the inscription on the bottom of the cup." Yongqing Changchun", "This is the official kiln of Daya Zhai, an object in the palace."

With just a few short words, the shopkeeper immediately looked at the young man in front of him with special eyes: "You can see this?"

"As expected of Jubao Pavilion, it is much more elegant than those shops outside. I went shopping in the morning, but I didn't drink a decent cup of tea." Zhang Qiling said with a smile.

The shopkeeper poured another cup for Zhang Qiling: "It seems that Mr. Zhang is quite used to drinking the tea here."

This time the shopkeeper didn't ask him about his origins or why he knew about the treasure map. Since he had been shopping all morning and he was knowledgeable, he had to get information about the treasure map from other people in the circle. It seemed that he was indeed the one who knew about the treasure map. Somewhat sincere.

"Longjing before the rain."

"Exactly, Mr. Zhang has good taste, haha!"

"It's top quality before rain, and it's treasure before tomorrow. Although it's only top quality, it's not bad for entertaining ordinary guests." Zhang Qiling said calmly.This treasure-appraisal artifact is really a treasure. Not only can it identify antiques, but it can also clearly display the grade of tea leaves.

With his light words, the shopkeeper's forehead began to break out in cold sweat. Although the other party's words sounded polite, the meaning in those words was that this tea was only suitable for entertaining ordinary guests.If you want to entertain distinguished guests, you won't be able to get on the stage.

"I'm sorry, I've been negligent. I'll let the buddy fetch the best tea." A knowledgeable and knowledgeable customer came. As a shopkeeper, can you not be respectful?This time he did not dare to underestimate Zhang Qiling.

Zhang Qiling waved his hand: "Don't worry, I didn't come here to drink tea, let's get back to business!"

The other party stopped him in time to send a buddy to change the tea, which was a bit of modesty and elegance. If he was really asked to change the tea again, he would do so for the sake of business, but it seemed that the other party was a bit too picky and aggressive.

But Zhang Qiling stopped it just right, changed the subject and went straight to the point, which was exactly what the shopkeeper hoped.

The inspection phase is over, and after the real and fake pleasantries, business is the real business.

"Okay, I like straightforward people! Since Mr. Zhang is sincere, I will show it to you directly. Please wait!" The shopkeeper left again and walked behind the assorted grids with various antiques. Get the treasure map from a safe.

Of course, Zhang Qiling only judged these by the sound.Because behind the brocade grid, there is a screen to block it!He has no clairvoyance.

After a while, the shopkeeper came out from behind, and walked up to him holding a jet-black box.

From the packaging point of view, it is very unremarkable, but the more precious the item, the more it will be packaged in an inconspicuous box.

This box may not be discernible to ordinary people, but when Zhang Qiling took a look, it was incredible. This box was also an antique, and it was made of oolong wood. This kind of wood will not be damaged even if it sinks to the bottom of the water.

Oolong wood, also known as gloomy wood, ancient sinking wood, oolong wood, oriental sacred wood, is a precious wood that sank in water and soil in ancient times.It was 3000 to [-] years ago, when earthquakes, floods, and mudslides buried all the plants and organisms on the ground into the low-lying part of the ancient river bed.Carbonized wood is formed after thousands or even tens of thousands of years of carbonization under the action of microorganisms such as bacteria under the condition of hypoxia and high pressure.

"Mr. Zhang, please!" The shopkeeper first put the box on a dry table beside him, carefully spread a soft cloth, and then opened the box.

"This box is so precious!" Zhang Qiling praised.

"Mr. Zhang has seen the way?" The shopkeeper asked with a smile.

"Gloomy wood, it's rare!"

The shopkeeper was more at ease this time, and carefully took out a treasure map made of silk from inside with both hands. This treasure map is different from ordinary treasure maps, and the patterns are all embroidered.

Tubu is as thin as a cicada's wing, and after several layers, it is still bright in the light, but it is dark yellow because of the long time.

Zhang Qiling held it with both hands, it was as light as nothing, not to mention whether the treasure in the treasure map was real or not, just based on the material, it was not convincing.

First put the treasure map on the cloth, and unfold it carefully. After opening layer by layer, it is about a foot square.

Three of the sides had neat edges and were locked, while the other side was torn or scratched with a sharp object, which was relatively rough.

Presumably it was originally a complete treasure map, but for some unknown reason it was divided into two halves.What a pity!

Even though he knew it was incomplete before coming here, Zhang Qiling still asked during the proper time, "Is it just the half of the scroll?"

The shopkeeper nodded: "If it wasn't for the fragments, it would be impossible for our Jubao Pavilion to sell them."
