Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 137 Illegal Operations
"Uncle, believe me, there are indeed jade stones here." Wen Shu said sincerely.

The shopkeeper still shook his head: "Little lady, don't bother me. If someone randomly comes and tells us that there is jade in the stone, and we understand it, then how will the business be done?"

Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't believe her words, Wen Shu had no choice but to resort to the last trick, "Since that's the case, how about we take a gamble?"

The shopkeeper was taken aback, and was about to say that I have something to bet with you little lady, but the spectators in the store were already shouting.

"What kind of gambling method, tell me."

Wen Shu glanced at the shopkeeper and said hesitantly, "I would like to pay two pennies to bet that the stone contains jade. If I am wrong and there is no jade in the stone after cutting it, then the two pennies will be given to the master who interprets the stone. Count it as hard work. But if there is jade here."

"So what if you have jade?" the onlookers hurriedly asked.

The shopkeeper in the room also became interested, and stood there with a calm expression on the surface, but he was actually listening secretly.

"If there is jade, the jade shop can buy my jade at the market price." Wen Shu raised his eyebrows and looked at the shopkeeper behind the counter: "How about it, uncle, dare to bet with me?"

"This method is reasonable, the shopkeeper bet with her." Before the shopkeeper could respond, the spectators shouted again.

Seeing this momentum, the shopkeeper nodded and said: "Okay, since the young lady is so convinced, I need everyone present to be a witness." He came out from behind the counter, and bowed to the guests from all directions, "If the stone is cut open, it will be true. If you have jade materials, then I will keep my promise and buy all the jade materials of this little lady at the market price. But if the little lady is wrong, then we will also charge you for the hard work. I hope everyone will bear witness. At that time, I will say that I am a big prospective customer of Zhao Jidian."

"Don't worry, shopkeeper, we will testify for you."

"Okay, then please move to the backyard together, and we will dissect the stone on the spot."

"Okay, let's go, we'll have a lot of fun today."

"Wait." Just as everyone got up and went to the backyard, Wen Shu, who was holding a stone, suddenly said, "I have another question."

The shopkeeper paused, turned around and stroked his beard and said, "Little lady, do you regret it? If you regret it, since it hasn't started yet, Shan can ignore you and go home with the stone."

"Thank you very much, uncle, but I don't regret it." She pointed to a jade pendant on the shelf on the left: "Just want to ask clearly, if the jade I extracted from this stone is of the same quality as that jade pendant, What price can uncle buy it for?"

She felt that since she wanted to gamble, she had to explain some things in more detail, so as not to cut jade later and cause disputes.

"The price of the finished jade pendant is thirty guan, but this includes the wages of the stone master and the engraver, as well as related money such as shop rent. In terms of the original price of the jade material, it is worth ten guan."

Wen Shu scratched lightly on the stone he brought, and asked again: "If the jade you get out is half the size of this stone, how much is it worth?"

Seeing how detailed her question was, the shopkeeper couldn't help being a little suspicious: "Young lady, is that how you conclude that there is jade in it?" Moreover, she even knew the quality and size of the jade.

"That's right, otherwise I wouldn't be able to sell it to uncle." Wen Shu blinked playfully: "I really mean it, but uncle treats me like a joke, it's really unfair."

Her tone was relaxed, and the expression on her face was also full of joy. The shopkeeper couldn't help but look a little funny, and the depression caused by being forced to gamble by everyone just now also disappeared a lot.

Immediately said straightforwardly: "If the little lady really has the eyes to see through the inside, this stone contains jade, and the quality and size of the jade are as you just said, then I promise, I am willing to buy all the materials for sixty guan."

Sixty?Almost as expected.

Wen Shu nodded: "Okay, let's start." After saying that, he carried the stone and followed everyone to the backyard.

The winner is in my hands!

She doesn't have sky eyes, but Xiaoxing does!

Just now she had secretly contacted Xiaoxing, the reason was that she wanted to know the specific value of the piece of jade in her hand, so as not to be coaxed later if she didn't know how to do it.

Although Xiaoxing had given the scanning identification results earlier, he only said that it contained white jade, with impurities in its color, and it was inferior.

However, it did not say how many inferior products there were, and how many impurities there were.

Maybe she didn't understand.

So she wondered if she could find a similar one in the store.Ask about the price in advance, so that when the stone is opened and compared, no one can fool her.

Although Xiaoxing also said that the species recognition scanning function is limited to scanning things in the world of mountains and seas, but Wen Shu, who knows its nature well, still asks in a spirit of not being ashamed to ask.

Because she knows, if she doesn't ask, it will never take the initiative to speak.

Sure enough, after some communication at the end, Xiaoxing's reply was OK!It's just that the system needs to consume points to scan foreign objects, ten points at a time.

Don't look at ten o'clock, but the total number of jade pendants and jade wares placed in this store is hundreds of pieces. After scanning this, it will cost nearly a thousand points!
And there are so many jade objects, it is impossible for her to touch every one of them, not to mention how strange this action is, even the shopkeeper and the shop assistant will not allow her to do this.

People are afraid that she will not be able to pay for it if she breaks it.

In fact, she really couldn't afford it!

So she asked again, is there any other way?
The voice in my head paused for a while, and then resumed.

[Yes, I can order the system to forcibly enable remote scanning, but this is an illegal operation. Once executed, the transmission channel will be temporarily closed for one month due to the prohibition, and it will not be opened again until the prohibition period ends.]

Illegal operation?It sounds a little serious.

Wen Shu thought about Xiaoxing's words carefully, and after understanding it, she probably said that if the remote scanning is turned on, she will not be able to enter the iron box for the next month.

In fact, whether she can get into the iron box is really not a big problem for her, because besides opportunities, there are many unknown dangers inside.

If she could choose, as long as she had money, she would really not want to go in and risk her life.

And this opportunity she had won with great difficulty, if she could frighten them in one fell swoop, then no one would doubt her when she sold the jade in the future, and she would not have to spend so much trouble.

So after a moment of hesitation, Wen Shu made a choice.

"Turn on remote scanning," she said.

[Received, remote scanning is starting]

[—beep—the system prompts!You are doing illegal operations——]

[Once implemented, the transmission channel of Shanhai World will be temporarily closed]

[And the violation operation has accumulated ten times, the system will automatically unbind the relationship with the host and return to the void, do you want to continue? 】

Unbind, what do you mean?Is it because after ten violations, the iron box will leave her forever?

Wen Shu, who had already made a choice, was shaken again at the moment when the words fell.

Although there are many dangers in the iron box, the benefits it brings to her are beyond doubt.And having owned the iron box for so long, she has actually regarded it as her own in her heart.

Now when I suddenly heard that one day, this thing would leave me, I felt a sense of crisis in my heart for no reason.

What should I do, do I want to continue?She is a little confused.

It's just that the words have already been spoken, and all the guests are waiting to see the result. It can be said that the arrow has to be fired, and it is only used once. It shouldn't be a big problem, right?
She comforted herself secretly.

After a few breaths, she finally chose to continue.
