The cannon fodder fake prince at the beginning, I won by hugging thighs

Lu Jiao squatted down beside the stall again, seemingly picking up the pile of stones casually, but actually marking them.

She casually pushed aside the good stuff inside and scattered it on the edge of the stall, making it look inconspicuous at all.

She said calmly: "Negotiate the price, or I won't buy it!"

The peddler stared at Lu Jiao's shoes guiltily, and seeing that they were not made of good leather, he thought that the man in front of him was not a sucker.

He still held up a finger: "One tael of silver for one pound."

He picked up these stones from a quarry near their tribe.

Because his sister was the clan leader's woman, she was able to get him the trade license.

It's just that their tribe didn't have anything valuable to exchange, so if they had good skins they would go to the big tribes to exchange for cattle and sheep, so this was a good deal for him.

He thought of transporting these stones to deceive people.

He came so many times that even the officials in charge of the trade were too lazy to accept his gifts - these broken stones were very heavy and there was nothing good inside.

But they were also happy to see the vendor sell it.

This meant that they could withhold some of the money when the vendors left the market.

The peddler stared at the expression on Lu Jiao's face. He had not opened his shop for a long time. If he couldn't bring back the money, his sister would be unhappy.

Lu Jiao did not disappoint his expectations and nodded.

"Okay, I'll just buy a few and play with them."

She picked up several large stones, which made the vendor's mouth grin from ear to ear.

That piece of stone weighs more than ten pounds, all of which is pure silver!

Lu Jiao pointed to the straw frame beside him and said, "Give that frame to me!"

"Here you go!"

The straw frame was just made of hay and was not worth much, so the vendor didn't care about this small thing.

Lu Jiao seemed to be annoyed with picking, so he simply used a straw basket to push away a small half of them, and then threw some out after picking them out.

Then he pointed to a few small stones on the other side and said, "I bought so many, give me those!"

The vendor looked at the hundreds of pounds of stones in the straw frame and smiled: "Sure!"

After the vendor finished weighing the fruits, Lu Jiao picked up a few small ones and threw them in, then he and Kuilang carried them onto the cart.

Before Lu Jiao and the other person left, the peddler suddenly started to rush forward and picked up the stone on the ground.

Afraid that he would leave too late, Lu Jiao came to his senses and wanted to come back to ask him for his money back.

Lu Jiao almost clapped his hands and laughed, but he held it back.

The mental power picked and chose in the basket, putting all the ones that were previously favored into the space.

Although there are a few large rocks as a cover, what if those officers and soldiers are really crazy?

The two men pushed the cart slowly out of the market and were stopped by the team of soldiers from before.

One of them turned the fur curl over and over with disgust, wanting to have a look from the side to see if there was any good fur hidden in the middle.

The captain recognized the two men and calculated the value of the two bags of salt in his mind.

I guess after buying these stones, they probably don’t have enough money to buy some expensive leather.

He said, "Don't check. Let them go. They bought this basket of broken stones from that sly guy Santa. How can they have enough money to buy good things?"

Lu Jiao flattered with a playful smile: "Captain, you are wise! I have learned a little skill in looking at stones before, and these stones look good."

"Oh?" The captain's eyes sparkled. There were many such stones piled in his yard.

In his eyes, those broken stones were no different.

Lu Jiao talked nonsense about skin shells and associated minerals, which confused the officers and soldiers so much that they had no intention of checking the merchants coming and going.

"So, these stones you bought are worth a lot of money?"

Kuilang felt a little uneasy and pulled Lu Jiao, signaling him to stop talking.

Lu Jiao raised his chin, quite proudly: "Of course!"

The captain pointed to the straw basket and said, "Try breaking a piece."

"Hey, hey, hey, you can't smash it! It will damage the jade inside!"

There were only ten people in the small team, and apart from the man who smashed the stone, nine of them surrounded Lu Jiao and could only watch the man smash a large piece of raw stone on the ground.

Not a crack at all.

"Idiot! The ground is covered in mud, how can you possibly break it open! Just smash both pieces together!"

The soldier didn't dare to argue. The captain had clearly asked him to smash only one piece. How could he expect so much?

Resigned to his fate, he lifted another piece from the basket and smashed it hard onto the stone on the ground.

There was a crisp sound, and then the stone broke into pieces.

The flying debris flew towards the nine people, but there was no blood, but it was a bit painful when it hit their bodies.

The captain was also affected, and he looked at the white rubble on the ground with a gloomy face.

It's just an ordinary big stone by the river, not jade at all.

Lu Jiao was "protected" by nine people, and not a single piece of gravel fell on her.

She tried to look down at the ground through the gap between the nine people, and shouted: "How is it, is it bullish?"

The captain kicked the big rock on the ground and turned away.

Lu Jiao also heard him mumbling softly.

"I must be crazy to believe a little kid."

When the remaining soldiers saw that their captain had left, they also left.

The merchants following Lu Jiao and the others quickly left with their goods or money, not daring to stay for a moment.

Even from a distance away, the captain could still hear Lu Jiao's angry voice.

"Oh my! This cost me dozens of taels! How come it's all broken stones!"

The farce at the market entrance lasted for quite a while, and everyone who passed by knew that someone had been cheated by the stone seller again.

Although it was funny, no one stopped to watch.

They took advantage of the absence of patrolling soldiers and left with the goods they had bought and sold, saving a lot of goods, especially the valuable ones.

If even a little bit of these good things are taken away by those blood-sucking bugs, you might end up losing everything.

Lu Jiao pretended for a while, and when he saw that it was almost done, he urged Kui Lang.

“Let’s go, let’s go. Once the captain comes to his senses, we won’t be able to leave.

Anyway, the salt has been exchanged and the formalities have been completed, so we should go home!"

She threw stones onto the roadside as she walked, and by the time they reached the inn, there was not much left in the straw basket.

Kuilang witnessed Lu Jiao's entire move and didn't understand his intention at all.

He was just walking on the street, and he didn't know who among them was the Guo family's spy, so he didn't dare to make it public.

It was not until the two of them drove the carriage and left Liangzhou City that Kuilang asked, "What are you doing today?"

Lu Jiao pointed at the roll of leather and said, "There is a piece of fine fox fur in it. I like it and plan to give it to Lu Ze.

But if the leather is taken apart by the officers and soldiers, it will be lost, and I don’t want to let them get away with it.

Besides, there are indeed good things in that pile of rocks.”

"I have little experience, please don't lie to me!"

Lu Jiao shrank back into the car and said lazily, "What good is there in lying to you? When we get there, you'll know when you find the tools to open it."
