Castle of Black Iron
Chapter 11: Fool's gold
When he came to the grocery store, Zhang Tie had already thrown out of his mind what had just happened to Doug. Tomorrow, Doug’s thing will be a joke in the Brotherhood of Aircraft. I don’t know that Doug is unlucky. The guy in this life can wash off this stain.
When Zhang Tie came, Tang De was greeting the customers in the shop. Zhang Tie stood by and watched. After the guests had left, Zhang Tie walked into the counter, picked up the broom and cloth basin, and cleaned up the shop. After finishing all these, he worked his abacus again, flipped through the books, and cleaned up the accounts in the shop over the past few days. Ever since Zhang Tie came to the grocery store, he found that Tang De, the owner of the grocery store, had become more and more lazy, and it took almost an hour to finish this every time. The same is true today.
Seeing Zhang Tie busy in the shop, Tang De lay down on his recliner again and closed his eyes leisurely.
Thinking of the few pieces of tea that Barry was holding today, Zhang Tie's heart moved, and he chatted with Tang De.
"Boss, do you know what tea is?"
"Tea!" Hearing this question, Tang De turned his head a little strangely, and glanced at Zhang Tie, "That is a very precious and rare drink. Those who are rich and powerful, but want to be arty, pretend to be themselves Gentlemen with great style and taste, I love to use this kind of thing to show off my identity!"
"No, it doesn't seem to be a drink. I saw someone put it directly in the mouth and eat saliva?"
"Idiot, tea is soaked in water. There are a lot of specialties!" Tang De scolded. "Put tea in your mouth. That's a method used by some upstarts to freshen their breath!"
"Oh, you said this thing is expensive!"
"It's not very expensive, it's very expensive, the lowest level. In Heiyan City, a pound and a bag of goods are shipped from outside. I need this number!" Tang De stretched out a slap. "As for the more advanced stuff, don't think about it in your life!"
"Five silver coins!" In Zhang Tie's view, this is already an exaggeration.
"Five silver coins..." Tang De sneered with disdain, "I can only let you hear about it. It is five gold coins, sometimes more expensive!"
Zhang Tie was shocked, wondering that there were only a few broken leaves, which were so ugly that the guy from Bali carefully wrapped layer after layer with paper. It turned out that this thing is expensive, and it is not something ordinary people can afford. .
"It's so expensive, if Black Flame City can grow it, it won't be made!"
"It won't be your turn if you want to post it. That thing is only available in the Eastern Continent. It can't be grown elsewhere. Those who can do this kind of business are all large business groups and chambers of commerce with a background!
"In the Eastern Continent, I heard that there are many human countries there, there are many powerful countries, and some countries have thousands of cities like Heiyan City. The teacher said in the school...!"
"Tubaozi, what is Black Flame City? There are cities that are dozens of times larger than Black Flame City. You will know when you have a chance to travel to the Eastern Continent. There are Chinese as the mainstay on the Eastern Continent. A human country, when I was young..." Tang De's face showed a look of yearning and reminiscence, and then he began to talk incessantly. Zhang Tie listened carefully. When Tang De was young, he should have been to the Eastern Continent. Really, some knowledge is also reliable. As for the others, the powerful human warriors of the Eastern Continent are allied with the customs and worshiped as brothers, and together they killed the alien races who wanted to destroy humans on the battlefield. , And then with some pioneers who have discovered a monument of great value, and explored underground with a big wave of beautiful women, and almost got caught by a group of beautiful women, big diamonds and houses big gold nuggets have seen a lot of things, you can conclude Basically belonged to the badly written content in the knight novel, which was automatically filtered by Zhang Tie.
Here, Tang De was talking about it. When he was talking about the big wave of beauty who went underground with him and cried and shouted to marry him, two guests came from the store over there, both of whom were more than 30. Years old, look weathered, unshaven, cowhide boots, brass buckle belt, rivet half body armor, a long sword hung on the waist, a steel crossbow box on his back, windproof hooded cloak on the shoulder armor of the rivet half body Zhang Tie’s eyesight has also been tempered in the grocery store this year. Although the two are pioneers, it is estimated that the time for pioneering is not long. Just look at the quality of the equipment on the two of them. Those newcomers who have entered the industry for a year or two are all in this shape, for fear that others will not know that they are pioneers, and their equipment is made to look like a regular army. Land, I bought it all by package.
"Two, do you need anything?" Zhang Tie asked very professionally and politely.
The two people first glanced at Zhang Tie, then looked around in the store, nodded to each other, the taller man walked over, leaned down, lowered his voice, and asked, "Is the boss there? We want to discuss business with him!"
Such customers are often encountered. Tang De’s grocery store not only sells things, but also collects things. Seeing the cautious appearance of these two pioneers, and having to talk directly with the boss, Tang De climbed from the lounge chair. He got up, rubbed his hands, hunched his waist, and walked over.
"I am the boss, I have the final say in this shop!"
The two pioneers turned their gazes on Tang De, looked at each other, and then nodded without a trace.
"Do you accept anything here?"
"Receive, as long as it is valuable, no matter what, I will accept it. If the two brought something too expensive for the small shop to eat, I can introduce the way for both of you. If the two are satisfied, you will need 5% afterwards. Agency fee!" Tang De's old ways and bachelor made the two pioneers make up their minds at once. After carefully looking outside the shop, and found that no one was paying attention to the small shop, one of the pioneers crossed his body, blocking the gaze outside the shop, and the other was taken from the sundries bag. Take out a fist-sized metal mine and place it on the counter.
The surface of that piece of ore is shining golden, a bit like gold. It seems to be precious and bluffing. Zhang Tie thought in advance that the two men could bring out some treasure to open his eyes, but he did not expect the two pioneers to take it. What came out was such a thing, Zhang Tie opened his mouth in surprise, didn't speak, just shook his head.
"That's it?" Tang De gasped, with a toothache.
"It's this..." One of the pioneers looked at Tang De seriously, "Make a price, as long as the price is right, our brother can cooperate with you for a long time in the future!"
"5 kilograms a copper!" Tang De quoted the price.
"What? Say it again! I heard you right..." The two pioneers opened their eyes together and looked at Tang De angrily.
"It's the same ten thousand times again, 5 kilograms a copper!" Tang De said slowly, without any scruples about the already flushed faces of the two pioneers. Among them, the windshield guy had impulsively put his hand on his waist. On the hilt of the sword.
"You two must think this is a gold mine. The color is so similar and the color is so beautiful?" Hearing Tang De's words, the two pioneers nodded in a daze, the one with the hand on the hilt of the sword. The guy also loosened his hand slightly.
"Hehe, some gold mines look very similar to this one, but unfortunately, this is not a gold mine, but pyrite. The price of 5 kilograms of copper is very suitable for it!"
"Pyrite?" A pioneer picked up the beautiful piece of golden ore in his hand, as if he didn't believe that the guy they had finally gotten was not as good as scrap iron. The other seemed suspicious and didn't believe much about Tang De's words. Seeing the appearance of the two pioneers, Tang De didn't say much, but directly said to Zhang Tie, "Take out the pyrite samples from our shop!"
Zhang Tie turned around and fumbled twice in a corner of the grocery store. He brought a torn bag full of dust and put the bag directly on the ground, exposing the contents. The guy with more than ten kilograms in the pocket shook out. Sure enough, it was exactly the same thing as the piece of ore on the counter. The two pioneers squatted down and each took up two worthless pieces of pyrite and compared them with the piece in their hands. The expressions on their faces were colorful, and finally they looked like a leak. The angry ball straddled down.
"There is a canyon in the red highland more than 100 kilometers southwest of Heiyan City. You probably got this thing from there. This thing is indeed very similar to a gold mine. In the past, some pioneers used this thing as a gold mine. There have been some jokes, the two of you don't need to care too much, open the land, you can see all weird things, no one is omniscient and omnipotent, knows everything!"
Even the location was revealed. Tang De’s words completely shattered the last hope in the hearts of the two pioneers. The two pioneers stood up from the ground and thanked Tang De listlessly. They felt a little embarrassed and didn’t stay in the shop. , Dingy and left. When he walked to the entrance of the store, one of the pioneers remembered that he was holding the piece of pyrite that they regarded as a treasure in his hand. After angrily cursed, he said harshly The pyrite in his hand hit the street.
"Pyrite, fool's gold, really deserves a reputation, two more fools have been fooled..." Seeing the two people leave, Tang De sighed, shaking his head, and then lay back on the couch.
Later, several waves of customers came to the grocery store and sold more than ten silver coins. When Tang De said "...today as usual, I will not leave you for dinner!" After saying it, Zhang Tie knew. It's time to go.
I don't know what Doug and Barry are doing now, Zhang Tie thought like this when he walked out of the grocery store.
The sky began to darken, and the lighter who was ringing the bell began to light the streets of the city. After walking on the street for less than ten steps, Zhang Tie suddenly stopped. By the street light that had just been lit, he saw himself Something flashed slightly under the front corner...
Oh, it's the pyrite that the two fools just lost. At this moment, the pyrite was smashed to the ground and rolled to the corner of the street and fell in half. Zhang Tie continued to walk two steps forward...
Oh, no, there seems to be something in the pyrite. It flashed just now. The color is different from the color of the pyrite under the light. Zhang Tie moved in his heart, walked over two steps, turned his back, and pretended to borrow I squatted down and carried it. I saw that no one was paying attention. I quietly picked up the two pieces of pyrite on the side of the road and put them in my pocket. There was indeed something in the pyrite, and Zhang Tie’s heart burst instantly. He jumped up...
