Elf’s Shorts Boy

Chapter 279: stone

"Little brother is interested in this stone, I tell you, this is a treasure."

The stall owner was a middle-aged man wearing small round-framed sunglasses. Seeing the young man stopping in front of his stall, he looked at the broken stone in the middle of his stall with interest, and vigorously advocated.

The stone is not uncommon. It is like a broken corner of the stele. The reason why it has attracted the attention of the beloved is because there are several twisted ancient characters on the surface of the stone.

The ancient text exudes aqua-blue glowing light, which is particularly eye-catching in this narrow and not open old street.

He has learned the ancient history of the Pokémon world well, but he has never seen the words on the stones, which adds a lot of mystery to the stones.

"How do you sell this stone?" It wasn't the beloved who spoke, but the old gentleman who had just played Wenwan Walnut in the front stall.

At this time, besides the beloved and the gray-haired old man, there were a few young people at the booth.

The stone with luminous characters on the stall is indeed a very eye-catching thing, and people passing by will basically stop and take a look.

The "V" stall owner didn't respond, but the crowd watching in front of the stall compared two fingers.

"two thousand?"

"The old gentleman joked. This stone looks like something from ancient times, and there are ancient characters on it that will glow. It is definitely a rare treasure. Two thousand yuan, ten times more is almost the same."

"Does your stone have any unusual functions besides the luminous ancient writing on it?" Seeing the stall owner's lion open his mouth, the old gentleman was not annoyed. He picked up the stone, looked at it, and asked.

"I found this in a ruin before. Although I don't know what other magical uses are, the ancient characters that will shine are already very extraordinary." The stall owner tried his best to promote it.

This was found in a coastal ruins when he was traveling in the Fangyuan area before.

He thinks he has a lot of research on antiquities, but the corner of this stone stele has been in his hands for a long time. After consulting a lot of materials and turning over many ancient books, he did not find any other uses of the stone.

"The stone is good. If the appearance is better, it would be good to sculpt it as a decoration, but even so, it won't be the price you said."

The old man put the stone back on the stall, and then left with little interest. The other onlookers on the stall dispersed after watching the excitement. He didn't even ask about the price from beginning to end.

In front of the stall, there was only the beloved person who was squatting and looking curiously, but the stall owner took a look at him and then withdrew his gaze, and there was no enthusiasm at the beginning.

A teenager in his 10s, just looking at it strangely, I guess he doesn't have much money in his pocket.

"Uncle, do you know the words above?" Seeing the surroundings became clean, the beloved asked.

"In order to study this stone, I did not go through the ancient texts. This is the text of the people of water in the ancient times. The two words above mean'roots', because they are incomplete, maybe it has other meanings."

Sitting down on the small stool, the middle-aged man with small round frame sunglasses explained in a flat tone, and then he didn't want to say more.

"The root cause, something of the ancient people of water?" The beloved muttered in his heart.

"Uncle, this stone is indeed a product made by an ancient alchemist, but there is only this incomplete piece, and it doesn't seem to have any effect. The price you want is indeed too high."

"A piece of no alchemy product is used, and it is still broken. Even if it is a complete piece, the text will shine, probably because it is easy to read in the dark, and it can't even be done under normal lighting."

"Without the supply of energy, you can see that the flashing light on the stone has become so dim. It is estimated that it will become a worthless ordinary stone in a short time, and it will not help you attract customers to stay in the future. "

"It just so happens that I am very interested in ancient characters. If you want to sell, uncle, instead of relying on this stone to help you attract customers, then you can make a sincere price and I will buy it."

Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him with clear eyes, the beloved's tone was full of sincerity.

"10w, if you want it, pay and take it straight away." After looking up and down the beloved, the stall owner made a suspicious price.

"Uncle, don’t ask too much. I have saved up my pocket money for six years, seven thousand eight hundred and thirty-two yuan and fifty cents. This is all of my belongings. If you are sincerely planning to sell it, even the odd fifty cents will be mine. Pass it all to you, this is the highest price I can offer."

Hearing the price offered by the stall owner, a bitter look appeared on the beloved's face, and the clear chestnut eyes looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, and the beloved's tone was extremely sincere.

Two pairs of eyes, one large and one small, were staring at each other. Through the dark lenses, the beloved could not see the suspicious gaze of the stall owner, and the middle-aged man in sunglasses could only see sincerity in the clear and translucent eyes of the beloved.

"That's it, I can see that you really like this stone. Uncle, I will take it today as my contribution to the education and inheritance of ancient Chinese characters. Transfer the money to me and take the stone away."

Finally the middle-aged man sighed and spoke first.

"Thank you, uncle, you are such a good person." The beloved took out his cell phone, transferred 7832.5 to the other party, then asked for two scraps of newspapers, and wrapped them carefully like a rare treasure.

The non-false excitement on his face made the middle-aged man with sunglasses amused, although he didn't plan to sell the stone at first, after all, putting it in the booth can help him attract many customers to stay.

However, the beloved just now had a strong voice call, but it moved him, the light on the text was dimming, how much is a broken alchemy stone worth?

The key is that he has been researching for a long time and has not found any other mysteries. Anyway, he will sell it out sooner or later. It is already very profitable to be able to pit the boy in front of him.

After wrapping up the stone, the beloved left with him, turned to a corner of the alley where a homeless man was peeing, and saw that there was no one around, and then the beloved put the stone into the system backpack.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, you see that little wood-carved bird is so cute

"That's it, maybe we buy it."

"Wait, where's Mr. Goodman?" Nanako asked suddenly~lightnovelpub.net~Daisuke and Shinichi, did you two go behind, see Mr. Goodman? Yuan Shizuka turned her head and looked at the two people behind.

"You ran too fast just now, we just chased you, and didn't notice the beloved."

"Ah, we are all to blame. My beloved didn't even notice when he left."

"Don't blame yourself, let's call my beloved and ask where he is."

"Hmm..."

————

"In the blue and silent night, I was thinking about philosophy alone, and the worms were rolling in the grass..."

"Hey, Mr. Dave!" Coming out of the alley, the beloved didn't expect Dave to call him. Does the other party still want to persuade him to be a contract trainer for the arena.

"My dear, are you free tonight?"
