Chapter 11 Fool's Gold

When he came to the grocery store, Zhang Tie had already thrown out what had just happened to Doug from his mind. By tomorrow, Doug's incident would definitely be a joke in the Airplane Brotherhood. Can this guy wash away this stain in his life.

When Zhang Tie came, Tang De was greeting customers in the store. Zhang Tie stood by and watched. After the customers left, Zhang Tie walked into the counter, picked up a broom, a rag and a sink, and cleaned up the store. , After finishing this, he used the abacus again, flipped through the ledger, and cleaned up the accounts of the store in the past few days. Since Zhang Tie came to the grocery store, he has found that the owner of the grocery store, Tang De, has become more and more lazy. Every time he comes to finish these things, it takes almost an hour, and the same is true today.

Seeing Zhang Tie busy in the shop, Tang De lay down on his reclining chair and closed his eyes leisurely.

Thinking of the few pieces of tea that Bally was holding today, Zhang Tie moved in his heart and chatted with Tang De.

"Boss, do you know what tea is?"

"Tea!" Hearing this question, Tang De turned his head strangely and glanced at Zhang Tie, "It is a very precious and rare drink. Those who are rich and powerful but want to be arty and pretend to be themselves A gentleman with great style and taste, who likes to use this kind of thing to show off his identity!"

"No, it doesn't seem to be a drink. I saw someone put it in their mouth and eat saliva?"

"Idiot, tea is soaked in water, and there are a lot of particulars!" Tang De scolded, "Put the tea in your mouth, that's what some upstarts use to freshen their breath!"

"Oh, you said this thing is very expensive!"

"It's not very expensive, it's very expensive, the lowest level. In Heiyan City, a pound of goods is shipped from outside, and this is the number!" Tang De stretched out a slap. "As for the more advanced stuff, don't think about it for the rest of your life!"

"Five silver coins!" In Zhang Tie's opinion, this was already an exaggeration.

"Five silver coins..." Tang De sneered disdainfully, "I can only tell you, it's five gold coins, and sometimes it's even more expensive!"

Zhang Tie was horrified, thinking that it was no wonder that there were only a few broken leaves, they were so ugly, that guy Bally carefully wrapped them in layers of paper. It turned out that this thing is expensive, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford. .

"It's so expensive, if Heiyan City can plant it, it's not going to happen!"

"It's not your turn to make it. That thing is only found in the Eastern Continent, and it can't be grown anywhere else. Those who can do this kind of business are all big business groups and chambers of commerce with backgrounds!"

"East 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...!"

"Bumper, what is Heiyan City? There are cities dozens of times bigger than Heiyan City. When you have the opportunity to travel to the Eastern Continent, you will know that there are Chinese people in the Eastern Continent. Human country, think back when I was young..." Tang De's face showed a look of yearning and reminiscence, and then he began to talk non-stop. Zhang Tie listened carefully, Tang De's visit to the East Continent when he was young should be Really, some of what I have seen and heard are also reliable. As for the other powerful human warriors in the Eastern Continent, according to the customs there, they are allied with blood and become brothers. Together, they will kill the aliens who want to destroy human beings on the battlefield and throw away their armor and armor. , and then discovered a relic of great value with some pioneers, and went to the underground with a big wave of beauties, almost got raped by a group of beauties, saw a lot of diamonds with big heads and gold nuggets the size of houses, etc., it can be concluded that Basically, it belongs to the badly written content in the knight novel, which was automatically filtered by Zhang Tie.

Here, Tang De was chatting, talking about the big wave of beautiful women who went underground with him and cried and shouted to marry him, but two customers came to the store over there, both of them in their thirties. age,

Frosty face, unshaven beard, cowhide boots, copper buckle belt, rivet bust, a long sword on the waist, a steel crossbow box on the back, rivet bust with a windproof hooded cloak hanging on the shoulders Button, looks like a pioneer, Zhang Tie's eyesight has also been exercised in the grocery store. Although these two are pioneers, it is estimated that the pioneering time is not long. This point, as long as Just look at the quality of the equipment on the two of them. Those who are new to the industry for a year or two are all like this. They are afraid that others will not know that they are pioneers, and their equipment is made like a regular army. It's all about buying a set.

"You two, do you need anything?" Zhang Tie asked professionally and politely.

The two first glanced at Zhang Tie, then looked around the store, nodded to each other, the taller man came over, lowered his body, lowered his voice, and asked, "Is the boss there? We want to talk business with him!"

Such customers are often encountered. Tang De's grocery store not only sells things, but also receives things. Seeing the cautious appearance of these two pioneers, and having to talk directly to the boss, Tang De climbed from the reclining chair. He got up, rubbed his hands together, bowed his waist, and walked over.

"I am the boss, I have the final say in this shop!"

The eyes of the two pioneers turned on Tang De, looked at each other, and then nodded without a trace.

"Do you take anything here?"

"Accept, as long as it is valuable, I will accept it. If the food you bring is too expensive for the small shop to eat, I can introduce the way to the two. If the two are satisfied, 5% will be needed afterwards. Intermediary fee!" Tang De's veteran and bachelor made the two pioneers make up their minds. When I carefully looked outside the store, I found that no one was paying attention to this small store. One of the pioneers crossed his body, blocking the view of the outside of the store, and the other person took the sundries from his bag. He took out a fist-sized piece of metal ore and placed it on the counter.

The surface of the ore was shiny and golden, and it looked like gold. It looked very precious and very bluffing. Zhang Tie thought that the two people could come up with some treasures to open his eyes, but he did not expect that the two pioneers would take When something like this came out, Zhang Tie opened his mouth in surprise, didn't say anything, just shook his head.

"That's it?" Tang De gasped, looking like he had a toothache.

"That's it..." One of the pioneers looked at Tang De quite solemnly, "Let's make a price, as long as the price is right, our brothers can cooperate with you for a long time in the future!"

"5 kilograms of copper!" Tang De quoted the price.

"What? Say it again! I heard right..." The two pioneers widened their eyes together and looked at Tang De angrily.

"It's the same 10,000 times, 5 kilograms of copper!" Tang De said slowly, without hesitation about the blushing faces of the two pioneers, the guy who blocked the wind had already put his hand on his waist impulsively. on the hilt of the sword.

"The two of you must think this is a gold mine. The color is so similar and the condition is so beautiful?" Hearing Tang De's words, the two pioneers nodded slightly after being stunned, the one with his hand on the hilt of the sword. The guy's hand also loosened slightly.

"Hehe, some gold mines do 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 golden ore in his hand, as if he didn't believe that the guy they finally got was not even as good as scrap iron. The other one seemed a little suspicious and didn't quite believe what Tang De said. Seeing the appearance of the two pioneers, Tang De didn't say much, but said directly to Zhang Tie, "Take out the pyrite samples from our store!"

Zhang Tie turned around and rummaged twice in a corner of the grocery store. He brought a torn bag full of dust and put the bag directly on the ground to reveal the contents. The guy weighing more than ten kilograms shook out. Sure enough, it was exactly the same as the piece of ore on the counter. The two pioneers squatted down and picked up two worthless pieces of pyrite each and compared them with the piece in their hands. He stepped down like a puffed ball.

"There is a canyon in the red highlands 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 worry too much, pioneering, you may see all kinds of strange things, no one is omniscient and omnipotent, they know everything!"

Even the location was said. 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, feeling a little embarrassed and not staying in the store much. , walked away in a sullen manner, and when he reached the door of the store, one of the pioneers remembered that he was still holding the piece of pyrite they regarded as a treasure in his hand. After cursing angrily, he said The pyrite in his hand smashed into the street.

"Pyrite, fool's gold, really lives up to its reputation. Two more fools have been fooled..." Watching the two leave, Tang De shook his head and sighed, then lay back on the reclining chair.

Later, the grocery store came to several waves of customers and sold more than ten silver coins. When Tang De said, "...I won't leave you for dinner today as usual!" After saying it, Zhang Tie knew, You should go too.

I don't know what Doug and Barry are doing now, Zhang Tie thought when he walked out of the grocery store.

The sky began to get dark, and the lamplighter, who was shaking the bell, began to light the city streets. After walking less than ten steps on the street, Zhang Tie suddenly stopped. Through the street lamp he just lit, he saw himself Something flashed slightly under the corner of the front wall...

Oh, it was the pyrite that the two fools threw away. At this moment, the pyrite was smashed to the ground and rolled into the corner of the street, and it was broken in half. Zhang Tie continued to take 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 pyrite under the light. Zhang Tie moved in his heart, took two steps, turned his back, and pretended to use it. After squatting down and carrying the kung fu, seeing that no one around was paying attention, he quietly picked up the two pieces of pyrite on the side of the road and put them in his pocket. There was indeed something in the pyrite, and Zhang Tie's heart pounded instantly. bang bang jumped up...
