111. Guess the lantern riddle (three more)


The two of them paid a tael of silver and started reading lantern riddles one after another on the Shuangyuan Bridge.

Although Shen Yan didn't know anything, when he saw those lantern riddles, Shen Yan felt that he was very familiar with them.

He told the answers to the boy who was following him one by one and asked him to convey the answers.

After a while, Shen Yan guessed all the thirteen riddles one by one.

The lantern riddle boss smiled and walked forward with a beautiful jade fan, "Young master and little girl, you are really amazing.

These lantern riddles are collected by my master from all over the country and are difficult to guess.

Ordinary people can guess them."

Four or five are considered amazing, you actually guessed all thirteen."

Shen Yanqian gave in and said with a smile: "It is difficult to guess these lantern riddles individually, but if you can look them together, you will find that the former one and the next one are actually related.

If you think about it carefully, you will know ” "Hahaha, it's easy for you to say it, young master.

You know, my master has put a lot of effort into these lantern riddles, just hoping that others can solve them."

"Then I feel lucky to have the answer."

"This is the prize for those who answer correctly.

The jade fan my master got in Nanchu."

With that said, the riddle boss handed over the jade fan in his hand.

Shen Yan took it and took a quick look at it, then he knew that it was a fan made of jade.

Although jade was not considered to be the finest jade, the entire fan was made of thin jade, which was tough and durable, and the carvings were beautiful.

It’s not cheap to buy, you’ll need dozens or even hundreds of taels.

He handed the jade fan to Chen Su's hand, "Take it, I'm afraid you are the only one who can use this thing."

"Yes."

Chen Su smiled, nodded and accepted it happily.

Someone in the crowd looked at Shen Yan and Chen Su with envy, and exclaimed: "You can tell at a glance that this jade fan is not cheap.

You must have hundreds of taels of silver to buy it."

"I think there's more to it than that."

"This young man is really lucky.

He answered all the questions correctly.

How many so-called talents came to answer the lantern riddles, but only a few of them were answered correctly."

"That's right.

Looking at this young master's appearance and ordinary clothes, I'm afraid he is a scholar from a poor family who studied hard."

"I'm afraid so."

Chen Su listened to the words in the crowd and rubbed the light green jade fan in his hand.

The more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

The thin edge of the jade fan was inlaid with golden metal objects.

Chen Su thought to himself, it couldn't be gold, but she I think too much, but it’s just a metal that’s about the same color as gold.

Chen Su didn't understand jade, but people around her said that this jade fan was not cheap.

Thinking about it, she thought it shouldn't be cheap either.

No matter what, she liked this fan very much.

After getting the treasure, Chen Su didn't want to stay any longer.

He took Shen Yan's hand and said, "Ayan, let's go back.

It's getting late.

We can go back to rest and sleep after we have something to eat."

Shen Yan didn't want to go shopping any more.

He looked a little tired, nodded and said, "Okay."

But just as the two were about to leave, they were stopped by the riddle boss.

"You two, you can't leave yet."

The riddle boss said, looking at the two of them with a smile.

"Why do you want to take the fan back?"

Chen Su asked, holding the jade fan tightly with his hand, "No, you just showed it to us for a blessing."

The boss smiled like a Maitreya Buddha, "Little girl, you misunderstood, that's not what I meant."

"Then why don't you let us leave?"

The lantern riddle boss fixed his eyes on Shen Yan, "The reason why I won't let you leave is because this young master is very good at guessing lantern riddles.

You can guess so many difficult lantern riddles correctly.

He's really amazing."

Shen Yan said modestly: "It's all good luck.

Some of them were random guesses.

I didn't expect that I was lucky."

"Haha, since the young master is so lucky, why don't we try three more guesses?

As long as someone can guess those three numbers, we will give away a South Sea pearl.

That is a priceless treasure.

Don't you want to give it a try, young master?"

Shen Yan was indeed moved.

It would be nice to give this pearl to Chen Su.

All along, it was Chen Su who took care of him and gave him money to spend.

He never made much money for Chen Su.

He looked at Chen Su, as if he wanted her to make the decision.

As long as Chen Su agreed, he would work hard to get the pearl back.

Chen Su has never seen any good things, especially in this era.

He only knows that it is good to have money.

As for the South Sea pearl, if you take it to modern times, it will be broken.

But here, it is not easy to estimate, and it is not round.

The circle is the key, and the size is also the key.

Don't take out a small pearl to tease it when the time comes.

"Boss, you won't fool us with a little pearl," Chen Su said with a smile.

When the boss heard this, he immediately became happy and said, "How dare I deceive you with this gadget?

This jade fan you have is so cheap.

You can get this price in the capital."

The shopkeeper gestured with each hand.

Chen Su asked with a smile, "One hundred taels" The other party shook his head, "No, it's at least two hundred taels of silver, and it was at the lowest price.

Do you think this final item can be any worse?"

"How much is it worth?"

Chen Su asked in a low voice.

If she could get the converted money, then she would be rich.

The boss made another sign this time.

Just when Chen Su wanted to ask if it was a thousand taels, the boss shook his hand and said, "This thing has a price but no market.

Many people can't buy it.

It's worth several thousand taels."

"That's called price but no market," Chen Su said with a smile, "You can easily sell it for a few thousand taels."

"The value of this thing has increased.

Last year it was a few hundred taels.

Now it costs a few thousand taels.

Next year it will be worth tens of thousands taels.

Even if there is a market, when you see the pearl, I think you won't be willing to sell it."

Chen Su heard what he said made sense, "It's just that we can have this thing if we want it, boss, are you kidding me, and it's getting late, we all have to go back."

After Chen Su finished speaking, he glanced at Shen Yan and saw that Shen Yan was a little absent-minded.

He couldn't help but worry, "Ayan, are you feeling uncomfortable?

How about we go back?"

"But" Shen Yan looked at the boss, "This pearl is pretty good, maybe we can get it if we try."

"But your face doesn't look good.

You must be tired.

Why don't we stop and go back?"

Although Chen Su really wanted it, since the boss could provide three lantern riddles as the finale, it was naturally impossible for him to take them away so easily.

Thinking about it, she still felt that there was no need to waste time on things that could not be done.

"No, I'm fine."

Shen Yan refused.

He could tell that Chen Su wanted the pearl, and he also hoped to give Chen Su something.

"I'm just a little tired, but why not solve these three mysteries first?"

Let’s go back, it’ll only take a while.”

Chen Su opened his mouth and finally nodded, "Okay, if you feel tired, we will go back.

We don't need the pearl."

"good."

Seeing that the two of them had finished their discussion, the lantern riddle boss said with a smile, "How about you two?

No one has guessed the answers to these three riddles yet.

Why don't you give it a try and maybe this pearl will be yours."

Shen Yan nodded, "Okay, then I'll give it a try
