Yan Luoqing: “?”

Does that mean that after being a witch for so many years, the money she earned is not even her first pot of gold?

Without saying anything, I quickly grabbed the elder sister's hand and went into the market.

I didn't choose the famous antique and jade shops in Beijing because I had little capital, so I had to start from these small stalls and shops to see if I could find some good things.

It’s true that I’m an amateur, but I have a super powerful plug-in!

You know, I am a little fox with third eyes. Although I can't see people for the time being, I have no problem seeing the goods.

The so-called "Heavenly Eye" is said to be able to know the past five hundred years and the future five hundred years. It can tell at a glance whether something is genuine or not. No matter how experienced the treasure appraiser is, he won't have such ability as mine.

In my world, a piece of Yuan blue and white porcelain can be auctioned for hundreds of millions.

After passing four or five stalls, I finally found the target.

It was a large white bowl with a simple shape, placed among a pile of beautiful porcelain, looking inconspicuous at all.

I wagged my tail and smiled slyly at the elder sister, then pretended to be calm and walked to the stall.

"Hey, you two, are you here to look at the goods? Here are some new goodies. Let's see if they appeal to you, sir."

The stall owner greeted us warmly.

In this industry, stall owners are naturally all shrewd. When facing laymen, if they exaggerate something fake as real, they will naturally ask for a sky-high price.

However, most of the people who deal in these things are rich people, the elderly, and young people are not common, not to mention such a strange combination of a shrine maiden and a shikigami. The seller knows that we are newbies, but not two fat fish. We probably come here to buy some bottles and jars for fun.

"Hey, shopkeeper, how much is this beautiful plate?"

I stretched out my hand and pointed at a glazed porcelain and asked.

Well, this is of course a fake. If it were real, you probably wouldn’t be able to get it even with a thousand taels of silver.

The purchasing power of one tael of silver is equivalent to two hundred yuan today.

"Hey, this demon... Well, my friend, you have a good eye. This is Tang Sancai from the Tang Dynasty. Although it is not from an official kiln, it is also very famous. If you are interested, you can take it for ten taels of silver."

The stall owner waved at me generously, as if letting me get a good deal.

I smacked my lips, pretended to be startled, and quickly pulled my hand back.

Bah, it’s so dark! This is just a contemporary thing, not worth even a penny!

"Hey, this white plate, it can't be that expensive, I'll buy it and use it to hold my rice."

I stretched out my hand and pointed at my target hesitantly.

Although it looks inconspicuous, it is authentic Tang white porcelain.

The reason why I acted like this was naturally to let the stall owner know that we don't have much money, so even if we want to cheat him, we have to think carefully.

If this price is as inflated as the price quoted for the fake Tang Sancai just now, then this business will naturally be over.

Sure enough, the stall owner had obviously lost interest.

When someone asks for a price, if you offer ten taels, the buyer will naturally bargain if he thinks it is appropriate. From the extent of the bargaining, you can roughly estimate the buyer's expected target.

I was so scared that I didn't dare to bargain, which clearly showed that I had no money in my pocket.

If you don’t have money, no matter how cunning the businessman is, he won’t be able to cheat you out of your money.

"Okay, okay, this white plate, if you like it, take it for three taels of silver."

I pretended to be surprised and blinked my eyes.

"Wow, you're amazing! We only have this much silver on us, not a penny more!"

After saying that, I quickly turned around, jumped in front of the big sister, and stretched out my little hand to ask for money.

The stall owner was very upset. This little devil really knew nothing. Of course he could roughly estimate how much money the customer had.

He bought this item from a rural market and spent only a few dozen copper coins on it. After reselling it, the price increased several times. He didn't expect that this rookie wouldn't even know how to bargain.

If an old hand takes a fancy to this antique, he will not easily buy it without asking a few friends to help him judge it. So it is easy to make money for Xiaobai.

He looked at us happily, with only two suckers in his eyes.

Chapter 53: Fox Ceremony

I walked away happily, holding the big white bowl I had just bought.

The stall owners around were all watching in silence. This was how the business was. There was no reason to go back on one's word or return the goods after the transaction. It all depended on one's eyesight. If one missed a product, one could only blame the stall owner for his poor eyesight. Even if one regretted it, one could not get it back. The same went for the buyer. If one was cheated, one could only blame oneself for being stupid.

The elder sister behind me sighed softly.

"How can you use such a big white plate to serve rice? If you want to put it on display, it would be out of place in a shrine, and it wouldn't look good. Sigh, I might as well buy you some fried tofu."

She reached out and rubbed my little head lovingly, already thinking about finding a commission on the road to solve the financial problem.

"What? Big sister, we are going to pawn this plate."

I held it up and shook it with a smile.

"This is Kyoto. Let's go find a big pawn shop. There will be professional appraisers to check the goods. They won't be as blind as that street vendor."

I spoke so sincerely that my elder sister became suspicious.

"You mean, this is the real thing?"

I nodded and rubbed the big sister's palm that was touching my little head.

The eldest sister is a shrine maiden, so naturally she knows nothing about this line of work.

However, even though she didn't know the value of this thing, she was still willing to buy it for me when I asked her for it.

Wow, if I were an ordinary loli, I would really learn bad things if I was spoiled like this.

In order not to let my elder sister down, I quickly took her to the pawnshop.

When they went in, their pockets were empty, and when they came out, the elder sister was a little confused.

There were already several silver notes worth a thousand taels in her arms.

"Oh, I forgot. Even if it is Tang Dynasty white porcelain, it doesn't seem to be very old now. After deducting the interest, it was only pawned for 8,000 taels."

I pouted, feeling a little dissatisfied.

In modern times, the only way to deal with this thing is to hand it in.

The pawnshop people estimated the value of the item at 12,000 taels, and gave us 8,000 taels after deducting the interest. I always feel that it is too little. I’m afraid they are bullying us two girls!

But the elder sister seemed very satisfied, so I naturally didn’t know what to say.

After all, nowadays, it's like a million dollars falling from the sky.

No, no, how can my abilities be worth only eight thousand taels? I must make a concerted effort to let big sister realize how capable I am!

"Hey, big sister, let's go to a bigger jade shop next."

"Xiao Lizhi, you, you still want to buy jade?"

The witch sister who had just received a huge sum of money seemed to be shocked.

"Well, to be precise, we just need to buy jade."

"Jade?"

This seemed to touch upon Yan Luoqing's blind spot in knowledge once again.

"Oh, it's the jade that's still hidden in the stone and hasn't been mined. The most famous one is the Heshi Bi. According to legend, the man who presented the treasure presented the stone to two kings successively. The foolish kings didn't know the value of the stone and chopped off his legs."

I said, shaking my head.

This thing has developed into the gambling stone industry in the modern Yunnan-Myanmar region, specializing in cutting jadeite. Since no one can know whether the stone is a gem or rubbish after being cut, it is truly a matter of cutting the stone to make a fortune or to lose everything.

To maximize the use of this eye in the sky, this business is the most suitable.

Yan Luoqing was a little confused. Was this silly and cute little guy in front of her still her own little fox?

Looking at her cunning little eyes, shaking her big tail, and the confidence in her expression, I always feel that she is a little different from before.

Well, but she must still be his. No matter how capable she is, she is still his little fox!

After a day of wandering around, Yan Luoqing, who originally had an empty pocket, now lives in the most luxurious room in Kyoto Inn. She is beginning to doubt her life.

Is it so easy to make money? She will never be able to earn as much money as the little fox earned in this day in her entire life.

Silver notes worth one thousand taels each were casually stuffed into her arms like toilet paper. During the day, she mechanically took the silver notes handed over by the little guy, and her whole body was numb.

As for my little one, she gave all the money to herself. She was holding a candied haws and licking it happily.

She said that she had no use for the money, and that she would buy whatever she wanted to eat anyway.

Yes, this is definitely our little fox.

My own little fox is so easy to satisfy. Besides, only my own little fox will rely on me so wholeheartedly, right?

Yan Luoqing reached out and hugged the little guy who was eating happily, feeling a little emotional.

"Perhaps, I should really believe that you are the heir of the legendary Inari God."

"Hmm? I am."

The little guy blinked his big eyes and tilted his head suspiciously.

"Alas, I am still a long way from becoming a god. Right now, I am just my big sister's little fox."

Yan Luoqing touched the little guy's big ears and lowered her head, hiding the increasingly complicated emotions in her eyes.

What does this mean? Even if you really become the Inari God, you are still my little fox!

The inexplicable sense of crisis made Yan Luoqing unable to help but hold the little guy to herself.

The little girl wasn't surprised at all. She liked to hold her in her arms, and she had long been accustomed to my contact with her.

But I always feel that I am a little bit unsatisfied with this.

The little guy is becoming more and more outstanding. He has shown his uniqueness since the fight against the demon king.

He saw through the Demon King's abilities, took the lead in breaking through the illusion, and deduced the advanced consciousness of the demon's existence.

Although it is still as silly and cute as before, she always feels that the little guy is getting farther and farther away from her.

Just like, the gap between humans and gods will become bigger, isn't it natural?

But she doesn't want that.

If it was really like that illusion, the little guy would die on his own one day. The thought of this made her feel very uneasy.

I was so anxious that I wanted to make the little girl my own right away so that she would never be able to leave me again.

She admitted that she didn't know when it started, but she did have an extraordinary possessiveness towards her little one.

"Oh, big sis, when you were cutting jade today, I bought you a gift as well!"

After the little fellow finished eating the candied haws, he suddenly remembered something, jumped out of his arms, took out an exquisite long box from his arms, and handed it to him.

She seemed a little shy and timid. Haha, of course I would like it as long as it was something given by her.

It's a hairpin.

The hairpin was made of carved white jade and was something I had seen today. It was from the same shop.

In terms of exquisiteness, it is certainly not as good as the old jade fox hairpin that Long Aotian once gave her, but this was given to her by her own little fox, the first gift given to her by the little fox that she raised since childhood.

"I, I heard that Long Aotian also gave a hairpin. I, I can't fall behind. That is to say..."

The little guy's face gradually turned red.

She, who was full of energy just now, became hesitant.

Yan Luoqing didn't want to bear it anymore, so she picked up her little guy,~~

Leave

There is no update today. I updated twice a day yesterday. Today, well, let’s just treat it as an early update yesterday, hehe.

Oops, I was just kidding. I will make up for it tomorrow!

Alas, it’s because the author is a little confused again. This chapter has actually been coded, but I’m not satisfied with it no matter how I look at it.

I saw someone say that the story was not as sweet as before, and the author felt the same way.

If I think about it carefully, influenced by the past, I have become a lot more timid because I am always being checked on the water meter.

As a result, we become restrained and timid.
