The richest world in the system

Chapter 272 Platinum Rings
The nearest Luoyang City will definitely not be peaceful!This is the conclusion Chen Kun came to. The reason why he came to this conclusion is simple. He offended Chen Kang, and then this kid Zhao Qian wanted to slander others behind his back. Can he get better?
So Chen Kun had no choice but to take Zuo Yunjian and Zhao Xiang with him when he went out. Sun Quan followed secretly, and Li Ying stayed behind to guard the Chen Mansion.

Of course, during this trip, Chen Kun specially invited Xiaoshu. He had also visited Li Quanfu at his residence, and he had also heard about Xiaoshu's glorious deeds!

Xiaoshu was an orphan since he was a child, and was picked up by Li Quanfu, and then brought up. Li Quanfu himself was originally a rough man, and he was a foreman on the surface, but he was also the leader of a faction in Luoyang City behind his back. Quan, but forget it if it’s good, I’ve learned a lot about foxes and tigers. Anyway, Li Quanfu really takes care of this kid. Everyone knows the origin of Xiaoshu, so they all let him go, just like letting Xiaoshu experience it. The feeling of being at home.

But the advantage of this is that in the east of Luoyang City, there is no place that Xiaoshu doesn't know, and which one is more affordable and which one has the best quality, even people like Lu Zhongliang yesterday can toss it out.

So Chen Kun specially brought Xiaoshu today. The first thing he did was to go straight to the silversmith who disappeared yesterday. After all, Lin Xinyan's matter could not be delayed any longer, otherwise it might leave some kind of shadow in her heart.

I was lucky today, Xiaoshu came out and gestured to Chen Kun not long after he ran in, "My lord, come quickly, that old man is here today!"

Chen Kun felt a little helpless about the old man called Xiaoshu. Although Xiaoshu called it himself, he often called him a bunch of old men. This is indeed a bad habit and needs to be changed!Set a good example for your children!
But now is not the time to think about these things, Chen Kun touched his nose, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, bypassed the sleepy guys in the store, and went straight to the small courtyard behind the store.

Chen Kun glanced at it. The yard was very ordinary, with a house, a kitchen and a warehouse, and then there was an old tree with only a few sparse leaves. An old man was lying on a bamboo chair, enjoying the shade in the shade behind the tree trunk.

The old man's face was pale, his face was full of wrinkles, his nose was reddish, he only had two hands resting on the armrests on both sides of the bamboo chair, knocking one after another, his slightly squinted eyes saw the little book coming in, Only then did he smile, "Oh, Xiao Shu, why are you free to visit me, an old man?"

"It's not that I want to come! As soon as you come, you want me to learn crafts from you! If the adults didn't ask me to find someone to help, I wouldn't come!" Xiao Shu pouted and said coldly.

The old man just smiled and looked at Chen Kun, "The young man has an unusual temperament. I don't know which nobleman he is from. What can I do for you!"

Chen Kun touched his nose. At the moment, his hair is not long enough, so he looks a bit unrestrained, unlike ordinary people.

After a pause, Chen Kun said, "I would like to ask you, I don't know if you have ever seen something white, similar to silver, but much heavier than silver!"

Hearing this, the man opened his eyes with a bright light, looked at Chen Kun, and said in a deep voice, "Generally no one knows about this thing, young man, where did you know it?"

Chen Kun smiled, "After all, I might not be an ordinary person! I have seen many novel things!"

The old man nodded, "That's fine, but let me remind you, I don't have much of this thing here, because it is easier to stretch, and it is gray in color and difficult to find, so no one pays attention to it!"

"It's okay, I attach great importance to it and want to do a business with you!" Chen Kun raised the corner of his mouth and said calmly.

"Oh? Tell me!" The old man also smiled and said lightly.

"To be honest, I temporarily call this thing platinum, and I want to make a batch of jewelry, so I need a batch of inventory!" Chen Kun said lightly.

The old man nodded, "It's just that this thing is hard to find, so the asking price may be higher."

"It's okay, just make a price directly!" Chen Kun kept smiling, joking, not to mention the tens of thousands of dollars now, but there are always thousands of taels of silver, right?Can't even afford platinum that no one has yet discovered?
But the old man laughed, "I'll buy the platinum for a ring, and the price is 50 taels of silver!"

"What the hell, old man, are you sure you're not robbing naked?" Chen Kun blushed for a while, this old man was even better at asking prices than him!Ah, 50 taels of silver?How many sterling silver jewelry is enough for him to make?Although the price is roughly estimated to be five times that of gold.

"Young man, you have to know that the origin of this platinum is really not easy. I learned it from an alchemy warlock. First look for it, and then dig and refine it. This process will take a month or two!" the old man Shu He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

Chen Kun touched his nose. He really didn't know about the mining of platinum, but he still knew something about gold, such as the big waves of gold mining. Platinum was even rarer, but no one had discovered its value yet, so it was indeed difficult to discover it. .

However, Chen Kun naturally couldn't accept this price, and immediately said, "Old man, you also know that no one likes this thing now, so the price is still too high!"

The old man just looked at Chen Kun and didn't speak.

Chen Kun gritted his teeth, feeling a little guilty. After all, it is impossible for him to mine platinum by himself, right?And even if he is asked to mine, he doesn't know how to mine?After thinking about it, he said in a deep voice, "20 taels!"

"Old man, your asking price is really too high, isn't it? Normally, when you make rings and jewelry, you just collect leftovers. Why do you ask for 50 taels this time?" Xiaoshu also said indignantly.

The old man sighed, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and he nodded, "Forget it, since I'm from Xiaoshu, I'll save face, 20 taels."

"Don't worry, I will give you a rebate if you make a profit at that time!" Chen Kun said with a smile, secretly relieved in his heart!

"Rebate?" The old man frowned, not understanding what Chen Kun said.

Chen Kun touched his nose and said calmly, "That is to say, if I make money, I will give you additional money based on how much I make!"

"Forget it! The old man made money anyway!" The old man shook his head, noncommittal.

"However, I still have a request. If you give me a ring this time, you'd better put this on it!" As he said, Chen Kun took out something from his sleeve.

This time, Xiaoshu and the old man's eyes were attracted to them. Under the sunlight, the thing in Chen Kun's hand was transparent and shining brightly, reflecting a dazzling light.

"This is called a diamond, I want you to give me a diamond ring!" Chen Kun said with a smile.

The old man looked at the things in Chen Kun's hands and nodded, but his eyes were a little dignified, as if he was thinking about something.
