C59 I Picked up a Treasure
Liu Haofeng looked around and said with a wry smile, "I don't know what's appropriate for buying. Your parents are both rich and do not lack anything.
"Hehe, so that's what you're worried about." Qin Qingwu couldn't help but laugh. "My parents aren't that strict. They're a bit more casual." "It's just that today's date is a little special …"
Then, he suddenly started to worry. Today was Grandpa's day of sacrifice, and it was a family gathering. If Liu Haofeng went to cause trouble, wouldn't it be very awkward?
Qin Qingwu's words reminded Liu Haofeng that since it was the day of sacrifice, it wasn't appropriate to give them gifts. But he couldn't leave empty-handed, could he?
"Qing Wu, do your parents have any special hobbies?"
"Ah, a special hobby?" Qin Qingwu was stunned for a moment. After some thought, she shook her head, "No way. My dad is in the company all year round, and he doesn't like to drink or smoke. Even if he does, he can solve the problem himself. "My mom really likes to talk about taking care of herself recently, but she doesn't have much time."
This made Liu Haofeng even more troubled. If there was a special hobby, they could just give it to him. However, the two of them were successful people, and he was just a member of the younger generation, and was also a pauper.
"Oh right, my dad really likes collecting. How about we go to the antique shop and have a look?" I know where the antique shop is. I used to go there with my dad. "
Hearing what Qin Qingwu said, Liu Haofeng's eyes lit up. He knew a bit about antiques, at least he wouldn't be fooled. After all, he was an expert, and his eyesight was much better than an ordinary person's.
Since it was just past 6 in the afternoon, there were a lot of customers in the market. Liu Haofeng suddenly felt like a commoner as he pulled Qin Qingwu out of the market. Qin Qingwu felt even more happy. This was her first time in such a lively place. Moreover, it was the man she liked. It felt like she was going to build a family of her own.
After finally exiting the market, Liu Haofeng let out a heavy sigh. Just as he was about to turn around and ask for directions, his gaze suddenly fell on a small shop in the corner of the market. There was actually an antique shop here!
For someone to play antiques in such a small place, it was truly unusual. In the urban areas of the common people, most of them were busy with their livelihood. Who would have the mind to play with some antiques?
Qin Qingwu walked over with a puzzled look on her face. The shop was really small. It was more like a second-hand shop than an antique shop. Second-hand bangles and secondhand jade pendants were sold in bulk. Only the shelves behind the shelves were filled with all sorts of ceramics. It was obvious that they were not good stuff.
Liu Haofeng was very disappointed. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly stopped his steps and stared at a black rock on the shelf with a frown.
The stone was black and shiny, and even though it was covered with dust that had accumulated over the years, it still shone brightly. It wasn't very big, just like an infant's head.
"Liu Haofeng, there's nothing here, and it's very old." Qin Qingwu pouted in dissatisfaction.
Liu Haofeng did not reply and instead walked towards the store. The owner was a middle-aged man in his forties. He wore glasses, had a wallet on his waist, and was watching black-and-white television with a leisurely expression.
Liu Haofeng didn't continue talking. He pointed to the black rock and said, "Boss, can you show me that stone?"
Hearing the voice, the shop owner turned his head and looked at Liu Haofeng with a confused expression. There was a trace of a smile on his thin face. "This black piece?"
Liu Haofeng nodded as he received the stone. It really did look like a big black egg. More accurately, it should be the Dragon-Fear Egg.
However, Liu Haofeng knew that it wasn't an egg, but a real stone. If it really was a dinosaur fossil, someone would have already bought it. How could it still be here?
Seeing that Liu Haofeng was continuously weighing the stone, the owner's eyes lit up. He quickly wiped the dust off the stone with a cloth and said: "This stone has been here for several years, I have always been using it to pressure the shelves. It is said to have been brought from the Himalayas, and is worth quite a lot. "
Liu Haofeng didn't answer and continued to look at the stone. The stone was very heavy, and it felt even heavier than a shot put. It must have weighed at least 20 kilograms, or something like high density granite.
Anyone with even the slightest experience in gambling would never choose such a stone as the weight of the stone itself was too heavy, proving that there weren't too many treasures inside.
However, Liu Haofeng didn't know what a rock was, he just found it rather pleasing to the eye. Nothing else but that it was very far and very interesting.
"How much is it?" Suddenly, Liu Haofeng stopped looking at the shop owner and asked.
The owner was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Liu Haofeng to really want it. He was surprised and said: "About this, I have to sell the goods at 500 points every few years, so I have to increase my value a little now …" A thousand, how about it? "
Liu Haofeng didn't answer in a hurry, but frowned as he weighed the black stone again. Qin Qingwu, who was standing beside him, could not help but interject, "Do we need to pay a thousand for this broken stone?"
"This …" The shop owner hesitated for a moment, but just as he was about to reduce the price, Liu Haofeng suddenly asked, "Do you have a tool that can open rocks here?"
"Diamond Diamond?" The shop owner was clearly an expert, and quickly understood what Liu Haofeng meant. He shook his head, "No, this thing is too expensive, I can't afford it. "If you want to cut, you have to go to the southern sector."
"Mm …" Liu Haofeng still nodded, which made the shop owner even more confused. Do you want it or not?
Gritting his teeth, the shop owner continued, "If you find it too expensive …"
"Two thousand!" Before he could finish his sentence, Liu Haofeng suddenly raised his head and glared at him, "2000, I won't take less than that. But you have to promise that you won't see me. "
The shop owner was stunned before he even had the chance to feel surprised. He looked at Liu Haofeng in confusion. Only after a long while did he react. With a grin and a nod, he said, "Don't worry, I understand the rules!"
He thought Liu Haofeng was just using this stone to earn the middle price.
Seeing that Liu Haofeng actually took out two thousand yuan and gave it to the shop owner, Qin Qingwu felt helpless.
Although she wasn't short on money, she knew that Liu Haofeng only had around a hundred thousand on him. What if he ran out of money in the future?
Liu Haofeng didn't explain and used a small gunny sack to pack the stones. It felt like he was carrying a small watermelon.
Watching the two of them leave through the crowd, the shop owner touched the money in his pocket and murmured to himself, "They should be inexperienced. These stones do not have much brick, they are mostly just for decoration, one or two hundred would do." "Hehe, today is really a profitable day."
However, how could he know that Liu Haofeng was getting a little excited, but due to too much uncertainty, he had to forcefully suppress it.
Liu Haofeng didn't know why, but he had a nagging feeling that this stone was not simple. There must be some treasure inside. It was an intuition, and it was growing stronger as he borrowed the stone.
The reason why he spent an extra thousand was to bolster his own courage. Only when he felt that it was too expensive would it be worth it. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to feel at ease when he bought it for a few hundred yuan.
"Liu Haofeng, what do you need this stone for?" Qin Qingwu was still confused. "You can't be thinking of giving it to Dad, right?"
"How embarrassing would I be if I were to give your dad such a cheap stone?" No, purely out of curiosity. "Find a place, let's break the rock and take a look. I feel something inside."
"Oh …" Qin Qingwu did not believe him, but since Liu Haofeng said so, she would not refute him. He just felt that such a heavy stone was definitely not some good stuff. It was not some meteorite from outer space.
After finding a remote corner, Liu Haofeng looked around to make sure no one was passing and then excitedly took out his stone. Touching it, it was truly smooth and comfortable.
After telling Qin Qingwu to back off, he raised the stone high into the air with a heavy sigh and smashed it heavily onto the concrete floor.
Boom! *
There was a depression in the ground and the stone was embedded in the ground. There wasn't even the slightest scratch on it. Wasn't it a bit too hard?
This time, Liu Haofeng didn't intend to smash it again. Instead, he squatted on the ground, looked left and right, then let his qi sink into his dantian.
"Ah …" Qin Qingwu, who was watching from a short distance away, was so frightened that she cried out in fear, her face instantly turning pale. Aren't you asking for trouble by smashing such a hard stone with your hands?
However, there was only a muffled bang as two cracks appeared on the round stone. Moreover, it was very clear that there was a wave of white smoke that disappeared in a flash.
"Heh, your skill is still not weak." Liu Haofeng was secretly pleasantly surprised and couldn't wait to pry the rock apart. The scene that entered his eyes made him instantly widen his eyes.
There really was something inside, and it wasn't just one, but three!
It was the size of a thumb and had a crystal clear white color. It even emitted a faint white mist. The refreshing fragrance overflowed, causing one to feel intoxicated in an instant.
"Ah, what is this?" Qin Qingwu ran up, and when she looked down, she was surprised to see three sparkling, milky-white, small balls in the middle of the stone.
"Good stuff, hehe, it's worth thousands of gold!" Liu Haofeng carefully held up the rock and tried his best to sniff it, "Although it's not a Snow Lotus Thousand-year-old, it's still more than five hundred years old. Heh, Qing Wu, this time we're rich! "
"Ah, Semen Saussurea?!" No matter what, Qin Qingwu was from a prestigious family, so she obviously knew about the value of Semen Saussurea. Forget about 500 years, even 100 years of Semen Saussurea would not be bought with money.
"That's right, it really is a Semen Saussurea." Liu Haofeng nodded his head with certainty. No matter what, he was a genius doctor, how could he not understand Semen Saussurea?
Before, he had always been suspicious of the stone. Firstly, because the stone was too heavy, and secondly, because the surface of the stone was emitting a faint fragrance, which was the scent of Semen Saussurea!
If it wasn't for the fact that he had a keen sense of smell as a special Soldier King, he wouldn't have noticed this fragrance. However, in such a casual manner, he actually obtained three priceless treasures!
The only pity was that none of the three pills had reached the thousand-year level. They were still a distance away from Miao Wang's requirement.
Liu Haofeng did not stay any longer. He quickly closed the stone carefully. Other than the cracks, it was perfectly fine.
Qin Qingwu asked curiously, "Why do you need to put it together? Can't you just take it out?"
Liu Haofeng laughed, "These Semen Saussurea have not been in contact with air for a long time, so if you suddenly touch it now, it will oxidize. "Come, go to the pharmacy and buy a few bottles. I'll give them to your parents today, hehe …"
A five hundred year old Semen Saussurea was not something that could be bought with money. A hundred years to get rid of a hundred diseases, a thousand years to revive the dead, the effects of Semen Saussurea, anyone who understood traditional Chinese medicine would understand …
