PS: I had a little card today, and I went out to do something in the afternoon, so I only had two updates, so I forgive me.

At Fang Yuan's instructions, Xiong Mao took the opportunity to look and saw a dozen people gathered in front of a shop not far away, not knowing what they were looking at.

"It seems like a big stone." Xiong Mao looked at it on tiptoe, and was also a little curious: "I don't know what kind of stone it is. If it is a Taishan Stone, it will take no time to come."

"Yes, just go and have a look." Fang Yuan smiled and left straight.

The two of them soon came to the crowd and saw it more clearly at this time. In the crowd, there was indeed a huge stone, a very severely weathered large stone, with a pothole on the surface and full of broken marks.

Of course, if it was just an ordinary big stone, and with dense cracks, it would definitely not be so important for everyone to pay attention. So after getting closer, Fang Yuan looked carefully and immediately discovered clues.

"Hey, it seems to be a tree fossil." At the same time, Xiong Mao was also a little surprised: "Such large tree fossils are relatively rare."

"It is rare to be rare, but it is broken too much." Someone next to him shook his head and said, "It seriously affects its value."

In an instant, someone casually said: "That's right. The problem is that if the tree fossils are perfect and intact, the store owner will probably get it directly to the provincial capital for auction, and it will definitely not be placed at the door of the store for everyone to appreciate."

"That's right." Others agree deeply. No tree fossils with excellent quality should be regarded as treasures, and they should be treasured by themselves. It is absolutely impossible to put them out for people to visit and enjoy.

Only things like this are not very good-looking, can be put out openly and not afraid of being missed by others. Instead, they can be used as a gimmick to attract more people's attention. Facts have proved that such open conspiracy is very effective. Anyway, many people are watching around the stone, which has also brought a lot of popularity to the store.

The shop owner was secretly happy, and suddenly someone in the crowd asked, "Boss, how do you sell this stone?"

“Huh?”

In an instant, many people were stunned and naturally felt very surprised, but they did not expect that someone would buy this broken stone. Although it was said that it was a tree fossil, the tree morphology was very small, with only a very small part in the gap.

Such things don’t have much ornamental value. You can just watch the fun here. If they ask them to buy them back, everyone will probably shake their heads and are unwilling to be this sucker.

However, unexpectedly, someone actually asked for the price. For a moment, not only was he watching the fun, but even the store owner was stunned for a while before he could react. He hurriedly looked around and said, "Who was talking just now?"

"I..." Someone in the crowd raised his hand and signaled that the person next to him naturally stepped back two steps like a tide. Fang Yuan looked with the trend and saw that the person who raised his hand was about thirty years old. He was relatively thin, his eyes were chaotic, and his face looked like a cunning person.

At first glance, the store owner suddenly looked disappointed and said angrily: "Pi Laosi, don't make trouble if you have nothing to do, you can't afford this thing."

"Hey, underestimate people, right?" Pi Laosi snorted: "It's my business whether you can afford it or not, but your attitude is that the store bullies customers, right?"

When the shop owner heard this, his face stopped and then he smiled brightly: "Brother Pi, you wronged me. What I mean is that this stone is more expensive, so you'd better consider it before buying it."

"Hmph, how expensive is it?" Pi Laosi said indifferently: "Let's get a price."

"Hmm?" The shop owner's eyes lit up slightly and he said in surprise: "Brother Pi, are you well-developed?"

"That's right, recently..." Pi Laosi's eyes showed a little smug look. Just as he was about to show off, he stopped vigilantly, and glared in reverse and said, "You are asking for something randomly and selling your stones."

"Haha, it seems that it's really done." The shop owner was not angry, and bowed at the same time: "Brother Pi, congratulations on getting rich."

"Don't be silly." Pi Laosi pointed at Dashi and said, "If you can sell the things, give them a real price."

"Sell, open the door to do business, there is no reason not to sell." The store owner nodded quickly and then said with grievances: "But the price is really not cheap, the purchase price plus the freight along the way, the tax..."

"Stop." Pi Laosi said angrily: "Don't talk about these things, what's the price in a word?"

"This number!" The shop owner stretched out a slap and shook it gently.

Pi Laosi opened his eyes: "Five thousand?"

"Brother Pi." The shop owner immediately smiled bitterly, "The shipping fee for moving things back is more than 5,000."

"Oh, those 50,000..." Pi Laosi suddenly realized his mind.

The shop owner frowned and was too lazy to go around in circles. He said simply: "Five hundred thousand!"

"You're a scam, dad." Pi Laosi jumped and said, "Can such a broken stone be worth 500,000? Do you want it? Believe it or not, I'll pull a cart over and sell it to you immediately?"

"Brother Pi, see clearly, this is a tree fossil." The shop owner emphasized: "The tree fossils buried in the ground, which have been formed after billions of years, are rare treasures..."

"Stop talking nonsense, it's such a rare treasure, you can't bear to sell it." Pi Laosi curled his lips and said, "One-time price, 80,000!"

"The cost of my various expenses is more than 80,000..."

While the two were bargaining, everyone next to them was also a little curious and talked a lot.

"This Pi Laosi was a rascal and dilapidated a few days ago. Why did he become rich today?"

"That's not clear, but I saw him on the street a few days ago, and it seemed to be running errands for a big boss."

"Tsk tsk, I'm lucky. I met a big boss from another place and was blocked by him."

"It's not from another place, it seems to be a local boss."

"who?"

“…”

Fang Yuan vaguely heard a name and ignored it. After watching the fun, he turned around and said, "Boss Xiong, let's go buy Taishan Stone."

"Okay!" This was exactly what Xiong Mao wanted. He quickly reached out and pointed: "There seems to be a store selling Taishan Stone over there. Let's go there to take a look."

While speaking, the two turned around and soon came to the shop mentioned by Xiong Mao. Before entering the door, Fang Yuan noticed a large stone erected at the door, with a few red painted characters on the surface of the stone: Taishan Stone is Dandang!

Fang Yuan looked at it and noticed a condensed aura coming to his face. He couldn't help but praise: "This stone is good, it should be genuine."

"Authentic, absolutely authentic." At this time, someone in the store came out and smiled and said, "Two guests, welcome. Are you here to buy Taishan Stone? This store is definitely authentic Taishan Stone. It was shipped back from Taishan. If you fake it, you will pay ten."

"Is that true?" Xiong Mao said without comment: "There are too many cases of fish-like fish clay in the past, and it is hard to defend against."

"Don't worry, I'm a regular store with a certificate." The owner patted his chest and said, "After buying the stones, you can find an expert to verify. If you find out that you bought a fake Taishan stone, you can make a claim."

When the shop owner said this, he was full of confidence and unconsciously convinced.

"Well, this is almost the same." Xiong Mao nodded with satisfaction, then waved his hand: "Boss, please do it first. Let's choose slowly, and we will check out you after we have finished choosing."

"Okay, I'll give you a discount then." The owner smiled and stepped aside with tactfulness.

At the same time, Fang Yuan looked around the shop and saw rows of low shelves placed in the spacious space, each shelves covered with strange-shaped stones.

"It seems that the boss has not lie." After looking at it for a moment, Fang Yuan laughed in a low voice: "The stones here are mostly Taishan stones, with a steady aura, solemn and thick, and are worthy of being as stable as Mount Tai."

"Yes." Xiong Mao nodded gently and said, "Shan Tai is the East Mountain. In ancient times, it was respected as the best mountain in the world. It is the place where the righteousness of heaven and earth is located, so emperors and generals like to worship on Mount Tai. As for the Taishan Stone, it took a long time to form, absorbed the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon, and naturally there is a strong aura."

"Of course, it's also Taishan Stone, and there are also strengths and weaknesses." At the right time, Xiong Mao frowned and said, "There are too many stones, which makes people dazzling. It's hard to judge the strength of the aura."

"It's okay, I'll find a few pieces for each person to divide the work and cooperate." Fang Yuan smiled. In this matter, he didn't think Xiong Mao was much worse than himself. After all, Taishan Stone is also a magic weapon, and this is Xiong Mao's expertise.

In response to this, Xiong Mao nodded happily and said, "Okay, then let's act separately."

While speaking, Xiong Mao walked towards one side and observed it attentively. Seeing this, Fang Yuan also walked towards the other end easily and carefully looked at the Taishan stone on the shelf. He saw that the stones were either simple, vigorous, or solemn, with different appearances and all-encompassing textures.

Fang Yuan looked carefully and suddenly felt aroused in his heart. He found that the strength of the Taishan Stone's aura was actually related to the texture in the stone. He saw that there were various white textures intertwined on the stone surfaces of gray, gray, black, and brown.

These textures are convex or concave, forming patterns such as mountain flowing waterfalls, ancient wood dead branches, birds and beasts, characters, etc., and are shiny and shiny, with balanced composition, clear and realistic, each with its own wonderful features. However, the strands of aura are stretched, flying, floating, or floating with the dense textures...

"No." Fang Yuan shook his head gently, and he suddenly realized that the more beautiful the Taishan stone, the more weak the aura in it. On the contrary, the finer the texture, the lines seemed to be messy, and the more heavy the aura was.

"Heavy!"

Suddenly, Fang Yuan reacted: "That's right, it's heavy. Heavy as Mount Tai. Since it's Mount Tai, the key is the word "heavy". The heavier the aura, the more stable it will naturally be, just like a thick shield, blocking the evil spirits outside."

"That is to say, if other magical instruments are diffusing, like radars, constantly radiating energy, thereby changing the surrounding aura environment to achieve the purpose of absorbing qi and promoting wealth. Then the aura of Taishan Stone should be converging and condensed, just like an extremely hard rock, unmoved and solidified!"
