The American Scripture

Claire watched Silia put her clothes on, then shrugged her shoulders, shook her head and said: "This is my spare clothes. I didn't think you were suitable. Well, I won't tell you The money is collected..." She beckoned to Silia, "Let's go, let me experience the jungle life with me first." Then she started walking towards the woods.

On the way, the two spent three days and two nights in the jungle, living together in a tent, hunting together, and barbecue together, until the two came out of the woods again. When they came out, both of them were ashamed, and their bodies were very dirty. It seemed that they had to find a place to wash them well and change their clothes.

"Cheyenne, we arrived at Cheyenne again." Claire walked feebly along the railroad, and said to Silia, "According to you, you are now more than 500 years old, in the ancestors of Americans. Are there any Spaniards in China? Maybe, I don’t think you might know. How can you know the changes in this world after spending so long in the lake?” Claire shook his head, as if Talking to himself.

"Of course...this is a railway? I've heard about it, but...I haven't seen it..." Silia said, and suddenly heard the sound of a train whistle, and she jumped out of the track quickly. When she ran to Claire's side, the huge train roared past, the bitter wind and strong air current made Silia's face pale.

"Have you seen the immense power after the Industrial Revolution? This is a train. You haven't seen it before. Have you seen it now? This train is just for carrying goods. There are also passenger trains that you can take to the United States. Anywhere in the world. Of course... there are planes flying in the sky. Carrying you to anywhere in the world!" Claire supplemented Silia with knowledge of this world. Silia was really excited, she had to ask everything she saw.

"This is Cheyenne, and there are military bases and missile launch sites nearby. Damn..." Claire and Silia were walking along the railroad, Silia was still looking at the surrounding places with interest, she was right Everything is interested. Just imagine, what kind of mentality would a girl who has been imprisoned in the lake water for five hundred years integrate into this world?

Two people at dusk. Entered the small city of Cheyenne, although it is the capital and largest city of Wyoming. But it really looks like a small town. Such a town really looks like a nostalgic feeling. There are no high-rise buildings, just like buildings in the old city, you can occasionally see new buildings, but they are all luxurious hotels. Prepared for some visitors here.

"It's so beautiful here!" Silia said to Claire in surprise. She even took Claire's hand to enter the hotel, but was pulled back by Claire and shook her head. Said to her, "Yes, it is really beautiful here, I know you want to live in, but you have to have money!"

"Okay, I know... You took three pearls. You can use them to exchange money. After changing the money, we can live in such a hotel, and we can also buy some nice clothes. I feel that this is a little bit like this. I'm not quite used to it. After all... your clothes are too small." Selia looked at her chest with her eyes tight, and it was indeed a bit small, which made Claire unable to help. Pouted.

"Okay, okay, you always have a reason. We have to go to the jewelry store first. I hope we can find it in a country-like place. Follow me, Silia. Don't go away!" Claire thought Siri Ya made sense. He had already spent half of his salary, and he was indeed caught in an economic crisis.

After turning a few turns on the street, I finally saw a jewelry store, so Claire beckoned to Silia, walked in, and then took out a bead from her little purse. , Handed it to the counter, a middle-aged man in a black suit and white gloves.

"Sir... how much do you think this is worth?" Claire passed the beads.

The middle-aged man in the suit smiled, and took the beads over without paying attention, and said with a smile to Claire: "I wonder... if you have read too many stories about the conversation, just think that the beads come over at that moment. Baby, then I want to change a lot of money? This is a good idea, I think...you better make up a story to make the price a little bit higher..."

"Okay, give me the beads, we can go to another city!" Claire was displeased when he heard that, so he snatched the beads from the middle-aged man's hand and snorted When he turned to leave, suddenly an old man frowned and looked at the middle-aged man.

"Please wait, little girl, we can estimate the price for your bead. Would you please come to my office and talk about it?" The old man made a please gesture to Claire and Silia, and then To the middle-aged man, he said displeasedly, "You almost missed our guest. No matter what she brought, don't say rejection easily."

"Yes, sir, I must remember!" The middle-aged man nodded in fear.

"Please, lovely girls." The old man said, letting Claire and Silia go in by the door inside the counter, and then went in by himself, half-covering the door and looking at the middle-aged man, solemnly He said, "Don't let anyone in." The old man said, and closed the door easily.

"Yes, sir, I remembered!" The middle-aged man replied sadly, really wondering why the old man would personally talk to these two little girls. Is the beads in this little girl's hands really valuable? ?

"Well, beautiful girls, now we can talk about business...may I take a look at this bead first?" The old man stretched out his hand as he said, and when he saw Claire still has some doubts, he said quickly." Alan Binder, the owner of this jewelry store. My family and I have been operating here for more than two hundred years, so... Don’t worry I will lie to you, not only that, I’m a master jewelry appraisal, so don’t I'm worried that your jewelry won't sell for the price, as long as it's good enough." He looked at Claire expectantly.

Claire worried, then handed the bead over, then looked at him and said, "I hope you are fair, otherwise, we won't sell it. You'd better do this, and don't think about it. Our beads."

"Of course, I swear by the honor of our Binder family. To be honest, I will only swear to little girls like you, because...here, everyone will trust me unconditionally! Trust me... Oh, I Oh my god, it’s really a beautiful bead. I'm sure that this bead will be the most beautiful in the world without any impurities in it. God... it's so perfect. Tell me... what price do you want? "Alan Bindel asked Claire while looking at the beads with a magnifying glass.

"We don’t know exactly how much it is worth. If you think it’s good, what price would you give me? Of course...you have to swear by your family’s honor that you won’t give us a super low price. We need money. , But you can't sell it casually like this." Of course Claire doesn't want to endure hardship.

"Well... let me think about it, I can't give you the price so easily." As Alan Binder took the microscope, put the beads under the microscope, and observed again. While observing, he uttered a "tsk" admiration, "It's really beautiful. Although I shouldn't be in this situation in front of the guests, I still want to praise this bead... well, I can't wait, I Give me a price, if you think it's suitable, then this bead is mine."

"Well, tell me, let's listen!" Claire shrugged.

"Five million dollars!" Alan Binder stretched out five fingers and gestured, "Five million dollars, I pay so much, if you can, you will sell this to me. Five million dollars is you That's it!"

"My God--" Silia suddenly screamed from the side, then she covered her mouth and stared at Claire and said, "Does the U.S. dollar...are more valuable than Spanish gold coins? If you convert How much is it to become a Spanish gold coin? Oh my God, I can’t believe it..."

Claire patted her hand, then took the beads from the old man's microscope, hummed and said, "I'm so sorry, Mr. Binder, I don't want to sell it to you just like this, and sell the beads. It's me, not the idiot next to me. You'd better treat all her forehead as if you haven't seen it before!" Claire said and quickly stood up~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and pulled Silia up. Walk towards the door.

"Okay, okay, you won... Little girl, you are really amazing. I will add another three million dollars for a total of eight million dollars. There is no pearl that sells more money than this. This is my sincerity. Sincere price, in fact... You know, such a high price is hard to get even at auction." Alan Bindel shouted loudly.

Claire nodded, and then smiled and said, "It's okay for you to say that earlier? Okay, eight million dollars, the deal, you are such a happy man!" Claire said, and stretched out his hand and Ai Len Bindel shook his hand, and then said to him, "You give me a cash check and I will give you beads."

"Of course, of course... this way we can still avoid taxes. It's just... I want to know, how did you get this bead? I rarely see you walking around with such a valuable thing like you. It should be Put it in the safest place at home, or in the safest counter of a jewelry store." Alan Binder said to Claire.

"This... do you want to ask about the origin of the jewelry?" Claire couldn't help but smile. "If you buy my jewelry in a formal way, I will definitely tell you the origin of this bead, but... now We are all illegal businesses, so... Either you give me a check or I bring back the beads!"
