Chapter 35 The worms in the tank are self-reliant
As the saying goes, summer insects can't speak ice! This kind of cricket has a short life and is difficult to survive the winter safely in the wild. Even if it can survive the winter safely, it is difficult to find it. When Russell saw the gloom on Qin Shubao's face, he immediately agreed, "Xiaoguang's proposal is excellent. Does the third master dare to gamble?"
Qin Shubao didn't want to get into such boring things, but he couldn't help but see the steady win-win look on Russell's face and shrugged his shoulders and said, "It doesn't matter! Gambling or ten thousand taels?
Russell's face twitched for a while, and Qin Shubao clearly put on which pot he didn't open, "Little gambling and pleasant, let's play a little, 5,000 taels!"
Qin Shubao smiled and was not aggressive. He just asked, "Are you playing now? Or in the afternoon?"
"It's better to hurry than to hurry! You and I will ask someone to get the bug now, and then I will win or lose the game. Russell didn't want Qin Shubao to have time to borrow crickets.
"Mengzi, go and come back quickly!"
When Russell heard Qin Shubao's words, his heart paused for a moment. Did he look for me just now?
Russell's face was uncertain, and Qin Shubao urged, "Do you play? If you don't play, I'll just leave. I don't have time to spend time here with you.
I can't see whether Qin Shubao is confident or deliberately bluffing. Russell can only wave his hands and ask his servants to go home to pick up insects.
Lian Guang smiled, patted his palm, and said with an orchid finger, "The two brothers are so elegant! Why don't you add some lottery heads too?"
"No!"
Qin Shubao and Russell shouted with one voice that they were afraid of trouble. Lian Guang pouted slightly and looked at the two with some resentment. Qin Shubao and Russell pretended not to see and drank tea.
Crets are generally adults around the beginning of autumn. After the adult, they fight for their spouses. This is also the most active season for crickets. It only takes about three months to play with insects. At this time, the good-quality insects on the market will be repeatedly bombarded, and their value is absolutely no worse than that of poor children.
There are a lot of people who like this mouth, but it is difficult for a few beloved insects to survive the winter safely. Every time there is a safe winter, it will become the capital to show off.
Russell only heard that the worms raised by Qin Shubao were robbed of their jars, and never heard that his worms could survive the winter. It was based on this that he made a bet with Qin Shubao.
There is a saying in playing with insects: play with insects for a year, play with cans for a lifetime. If the insect is dead, you can look for it again, but a jar with excellent appearance and made by a famous artist is definitely a sharp weapon to improve taste.
Unfortunately, there are two good jars in the three jars held by Russell's men, all of which are good things of 'Sanhe Liu'.
There is no way to verify the specific name of 'Sanhe Liu' and what era he was born, but the cricket jar and worm gourd he made are excellent. Even the former emperor had several boutiques in the hands, but the beacon broke the city, and those little things were broken into rubble or passed away.
The two cricket jars in Zhao Meng's hand are made of purple sand, plain and undecorated, simple and steady, but compared with the guy in Russell's hand, it is 108,000 miles, at least 36,000 miles.
It's not that Qin Shubao is reluctant to spend money, but whenever he holds a good jar and fights with people, he will be 'borrowed' away. No one has ever returned it. That's why he chose this kind of unplealike jar.
Compared with the two countertop jars in Qin Shubao's hand, Russell's hand is absolutely exquisite. A black-brown purple sand jar depicts five cows, either bowing their heads to look for grass, or looking up at each other, or two cows fighting. The lines are simple, the blade is round, and a few strokes are quite vivid. The other bright red purple sand jar has no decoration, thick pulp, and excellent appearance. A circle of cloud patterns is depicted on the lid of the jar, which gives rise to a sense of elegance and lightness.
"I've brought all the bug guys. Let's get started."
"Wait!" Qin Shubao suddenly stopped, and Russell's face was suddenly full of sunshine, and his eyes floated and asked, "What? Don't the third master dare to gamble? If I don't dare to gamble, I'll ask someone to withdraw now.
Qin Shubao looked at Russell and said with a smile, "If I were afraid, I wouldn't have asked people to move insects here. I just want to say that it's too boring to lose money like this. I want to change the game.
"How to play?"
"I lost, 5,000 taels of silver belongs to you! If you lose, the jar in your hand belongs to me, and then give me a thousand taels of silver as a carriage fee. Qin Shubao suddenly became aware of the beautiful cricket jar in Russell's hand.
Sanhe Liu's jars cost at least a thousand taels of snowflake silver on the market. The price of two excellent-quality jars is 3,000 taels, and someone will definitely buy them immediately. In addition, the car and horse fare of 1,000 taels is no different from 5,000 taels.
"Go home without gambling! The third master doesn't have to gamble with you.
Russell's mind flashed, staring at Qin Shubao viciously and said, "Ok! I bet on this game. But I also want to add some more.
"What is it?"
"If you lose, 5,000 taels of silver will be mine, but you have to crush the worms in your hand and throw all the jars." With a gloomy light in Russell's eyes, he began to like this kind of shocking idea.
After listening to this, Qin Shubao, who shook the fan, immediately agreed and was stunned by Russell's vicious words. Russell punched the empty space and only felt uncomfortable, but he couldn't attack, so he had to ask someone to give the cricket to the insect fighter.
Qin Shubao nodded to Zhao Meng. Zhao Meng held two jars and gave them to the insect fighter beside him. The insect fighter opened the lid, put a bamboo tube into the jar, and gently drove the worm in the jar with a feather and let it enter the bamboo tube by itself.
The insect fighter put the bamboo tube containing crickets into the small scale beside him and carefully moved the scale. When it was balancing, he reported loudly: "Three cents and two cents."
This is true for the worms. Choose insects of the same weight to fight. If the weight of the insects is too far different, they will give up the fight and fight again. The toys of the children of the sorghum are very particular and look down on the chaos in the market.
"The insects of the two brothers are so strong! If only you could even one for me." Lian Guang crossed his hands and looked at the cricket jar on the table with light.
Qin Shubao and Russell regarded it as if they hadn't heard it. A safe winter worm is definitely a fun thing, and no one will take it out and give it away casually. In the cold winter, it is definitely a great enjoyment to listen to two crisp insect sounds and look at the legs and whiskers.
The insect fighter put two three-cent crickets into the bucket jar, with a partition in the middle, waiting for Qin Shubao and Russell's instructions.
Russell saw that Qin Shubao's cricket was quite small and secretly gritted his teeth. Now he can only look at the ability of the worm in the jar. Say to the Bug Fighter, "Let's start!"
The insect fighting man was ordered to open the partition in the middle. As soon as the partition was pulled open, it immediately surrounded a group of people and fought crickets in spring. This is not something you can see if you want to see it.
Fighting crickets are carried out by headbutt, so to look at crickets, you must first look at the head. Only big-headed crickets can show strength, strength and strength.
The powerful cricket not only has a big head, but also has a bright and shiny heart. The head is high and round, which is better like the head of the birthday star. The two fighting insects in the hands of Qin Shubao and Russell are all good.
There are fine straight lines on the forehead of the worm brought by the two, but the original 'matou' is as ordinary as cabbage in the hands of the children of the sorghum. But the two fighting insects in the jar, one with a cyan head and the other with a brass color, which feasted the viewer's eyes.
The fight of crickets also depends on teeth and hind legs. The two cricket toothplies that are wandering in the can are golden, the sergs on the teeth are sharp and sharp, and the whole teeth are dry and bright and soft.
Russell's cyan cricket is slightly larger than Qin Shubao's cricket, and its two hind legs are covered with thorns, like a small mace. However, Qin Shubao's cricket's two hind legs are large and thick, and there are many thorns on his legs, which looks quite heroic.
The two crickets rotated by themselves in the jar and had no desire to fight at all. Even if the worm fighter teased them with grass ears, they could not provoke much anger.
The onlookers all shook their heads. They were looking forward to a good show, but in the end it was empty and happy.
"Since you can't distinguish between high and low, then withdraw!" Russell took the initiative to strike, and there was no ridicule from everyone. It was not the season for fighting crickets. No matter what, it could be said.
Qin Shubao pointed to the jar with a fan. Just as he was about to speak, the sound of insects suddenly sounded in the jar. The crisp sound of insects immediately pulled everyone's attention.
"Third Master, it's our 'pearl'. Third Master, we won.
The fighting bug does not have to break its foot to win. At some moments, the fighting bug knows that it is invincible and will not fight, allowing the opponent to play a triumphant song.
Russell opened his eyes and said angrily, "How can you win? There is no fight between the two bugs. How can you win? Just now, he just used a fan to make your 'pearl' cry when you thought that autumn was coming to end. How can this count?
Before Qin Shubao could fight back, there was a cry in the jar again, and the two crickets were facing each other. Qin Shubao's 'pearl' shouted while attacking, which was so uncomfortable!
Pearl's hind legs suddenly exerted strength, squeezing Russell's cricket, which did not want to fight at all, and took advantage of a gap to bite the cricket's big mouth, fell on the back, and overturned the blue cricket to the ground.
After the overturned cricket got up, he immediately escaped. No matter how the insect fighter tried, he refused to go up and fight.
Everyone looked comfortable, and Russell had no reason to quibble. He disgraced the crowd and didn't want to stay here for another second.
The cry of 'pearl' still resounded in the jar. Qin Shubao said with a smile, "It's still a man who should be self-reliant!" Mingzhu, I will change your name today. From now on, I will call you King Kong. I don't want that fat pink name.
"Mengzi, let's take away the jar, and Russell's boy's bug will be left to Xiaoguang."
When Lian Guang heard that Qin Shubao was going to send three winter insects for himself, he jumped up happily. His two legs appeared in a 'w' shape in the air, and Qin Shubao's eyebrows jumped straight.
Seven-foot man, such a delicate woman, how can the world exist!
