Chapter 157 Meeting again

System: [Uncle still had some doubts, and Fu Lei immediately used another trick. He quickly glanced at the jade pendant hanging around the uncle's waist, and then asked: [Uncle, how much is this jade pendant on your waist worth? ]

The uncle touched the jade pendant and answered without hesitation: "Oh, this one, it's worth three taels of silver, I bought it from a peddler."

After hearing this, Fu Lei smiled slightly, took out the jade pendant from his arms, handed it to the uncle carefully, and said in a low voice: "Uncle, take another look at my jade pendant, is there anything special about it? To tell you the truth, this is a treasure worn by Taizu of Northern Qi. I went through a lot of trouble and spent a lot of money to get it!"

The uncle's eyes widened, and he took the jade pendant from Fu Lei's hand and examined it carefully. He was surprised, but still asked in confusion: "Brother, what do you mean by this?"

Fu Lei smiled, patted the uncle on the shoulder and explained: "Let's exchange the jade pendants. This is called 'a promise is worth a thousand gold'. I put such a precious thing with you, you should be relieved, right? So that you don't think I'm fooling you all day long! Whenever you see this jade pendant in the future, you will remember my promise to you."

"Exquisite, exquisite, big brother is really an exquisite person, come, the jade pendant is for you!"

After the uncle finished speaking, he took off the jade pendant from his waist, exchanged it with Fu Lei, then waved his hand happily and watched Fu Lei ride away on his donkey. 】

Nan Rongxi: [Awesome, awesome! I've seen people who can fool people before, but I've never seen anyone so good at fooling people! Tongzi, does this story end here?]

Officials: The son of the Minister of Works is truly amazing!

System: [Xizi, there is something more exciting. Later, the uncle couldn't find Fu Lei, so he kept wandering around looking for someone. As a result, he ran into the aunt! ]

Nan Rongxi smiled knowingly: [That's fine, then what happened between them? ]

System: [Look at you, you think too much. The uncle was anxiously looking for someone, holding the jade pendant tightly in his hand, and asked everyone he met if they wanted to buy it. Finally, he met an old lady.

"Auntie, how do you think of this jade pendant? It was once worn by the Northern Qi Emperor Taizu!" The uncle handed over the jade pendant with a face full of expectation. 】

Nan Rongxi: [Hahaha… I guess this jade pendant is fake! ]

System: [You guessed it right. The old lady took the jade pendant and examined it carefully. The quality of the jade pendant was indeed poor, but she quickly shook her head and replied bluntly: "I think you are sick! Go away!"

The uncle showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, but he did not give up and continued to ask: "Auntie, have you ever seen a young man driving a donkey cart with a broken stone mill on it?"

The old lady thought about it for a while, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind. She said casually: "Oh, I seem to have some impression. I gave him some money to throw away the millstone!"

"What? Auntie, he didn't listen to you and throw away the millstone. Instead, he sold it to me, and I paid a full forty taels of silver for it!" The uncle's tone became more and more excited, and his voice unconsciously rose eight octaves.

The more he spoke, the angrier he became, secretly regretting how he could have trusted the young man so much that he spent a huge amount of money to buy a worthless broken millstone.

"40 taels?!!"

When the old lady heard this number, her face turned pale and her astonishment was evident on her face.

The uncle next to him was dumbfounded and muttered to himself: "That brat actually said that this was something that the First Emperor had used, and shamelessly called it a rare treasure!!!"

"What? Cultural relics!!! Then where is this millstone now?" The old lady's eyes widened as if they were about to fall out.

"Alas... it's all my fault that I was so confused that I was fooled by that guy's sweet talk, and in the end he even tricked me into taking the millstone away!" The uncle slapped his thigh in regret. 】

Nan Rongxi continued to ask: [Tongzi, did they find Fu Lei later? ]

System: [Then they must have found it. Just as they were talking, the old lady suddenly caught a glimpse of a donkey cart slowly approaching in the distance. She immediately pointed her finger and shouted loudly in that direction: "Look! Is that the guy you were talking about?"

The uncle looked in the direction of her finger and took a closer look. As expected, the driver was Fu Lei. So he yelled without hesitation: "Hey! Stop! Stop now!!"

Seeing this, Fu Lei smiled and said, "Uncle, what a coincidence, how come I meet you again!"

The old lady also ran up and pointed at Fu Lei and said, "Where is my millstone? Where did you take it?"

Fu Lei pretended not to know: "What stone mill? There is none!"

At this time, the uncle also said: "It's the stone mill you sold me!"

Fu Lei was extremely excited and said with a slightly trembling voice: "Uncle, I finally found you..." However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the lady next to him.

The old lady shouted anxiously, "I can't give you the millstone anymore. Give it back to me!" Fu Lei was immediately very surprised and confused. With an innocent look on his face, he asked puzzledly, "Auntie, you clearly gave me the millstone. Why do you want it back now? Why?"

The old lady explained anxiously: "I didn't know that this millstone was a cultural relic before! That's why I gave it to you. Now I know its value, of course I have to take it back!" Fu Lei couldn't help but murmur in his heart after hearing this, but he still insisted on his position and retorted: "But old lady, since you have already given me the millstone, how can I ask for it back?"

The uncle standing next to him also spoke up at this time: "Auntie, he lied to you. This thing is really not a cultural relic! It's not worth much!"]

Nan Rongxi: [Tongzi, Fu Lei is about to be exposed. If he can still fool people, he will be really amazing! ]

System: [Xizi, you know what, I really let Fu Lei fool you. Fu Lei suddenly had an idea and announced loudly: "But uncle, I have found a buyer for you who is willing to buy this millstone, and he has already bought it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Lei noticed that the uncle and aunt's faces suddenly became extremely shocked, and they were obviously extremely shocked by what he said.

"How much is it?!"

The uncle's eyes widened.

Fu Lei immediately winked at the uncle.

When the old lady saw this, she immediately became angry and pointed at Fu Lei and said, "Just tell me right here, how much did it sell for?"
