After parting ways with Shen Zixi, Xue Chen took a taxi back home, half-lying on the bedside, took out the black ancient jade he was carrying with him from the inner pocket of his clothes, and looked at it carefully.
After two evolutions, compared with when he first obtained it, the black color on this piece of ancient jade has become much lighter, and the strange runes outlined on the surface have become clearer.
"That old sandalwood plaque shouldn't be considered an antique, but it still has spiritual energy that can be absorbed by it..."
No wonder Xue Chen thinks too much, this ancient black jade is too mysterious, and it is not something that he can thoroughly study and understand in a short time. After feeling the spiritual energy content in the black jade, it is still far from being full again.
"Well, it seems that every time the aura reaches saturation and evolution, the aura required to evolve again will increase accordingly. It seems that we have to find a way to get access to more antiques."
After thinking for a long time, he picked up the "Encyclopedia of Antique Appreciation" on the bedside table and read it for a while before Xue Chen fell asleep. Although because of the existence of ancient jade, he had an extraordinary ability to identify antiques, he did not slack off because of this.
Studying has become a habit for him.
…
Because he was thinking about the old Indian sandalwood plaque placed by Fatty Wang, Xue Chen spent the whole morning at Daxing Pawn Shop the next day. He said hello to the newly recruited appraiser, Master Liu, and then got in the car.
Went to the Excellence Antique Shop.
When he got out of the taxi, the first thing he saw was a newly installed LED screen about two square meters in size at the entrance of the antique store. It played the video of Master Qin Xu interpreting paintings that he had recorded himself.
"Haha, Fatty Wang's efficiency is not bad." Xue Chen said with a smile.
Sandao Street, where Zhuo Zhuo Antique Store is located, is very prosperous and not far from the Antique Market, so the flow of people coming and going is considerable, and the large screen naturally attracts many passers-by to stop and watch.
After watching the video explaining the painting, many passers-by couldn't help but feel curious and went into the store to take a look, wanting to see with their own eyes the four landscapes of Liu Songnian that were taken out of the painting in the video.
picture.
As a result, it naturally attracted a lot of business.
When you walk into the store, the first thing you see is Liu Songnian's four landscape paintings, which are carefully framed and protected in a square tempered glass cover in the center of the store. There is also a label on the glass cover: ornamental items, not for sale. Not for sale.
There were many people standing next to the glass cover admiring it, pointing and pointing from time to time.
At this time, Fatty Wang and Li Jiang, the only waiter in the store, were entertaining customers who were interested in buying. Fatty Wang was holding a snuff bottle from the Republic of China in his hand. He suddenly said that it was used by Yuan Shikai. He lied without blinking.
one time.
"Old Xue, you're here. The things are upstairs and under my bed. You go up first. I'll go over when I'm done." Wang Dong caught a glimpse of Xue Chen coming in and immediately shouted.
Going straight upstairs, Xue Chen took out the Indian old sandalwood plaque from under the bed of Fatty Wang's bedroom in the shop. He squatted down, touched the delicate texture and wood of the old sandalwood, and smelled the light but lingering sandalwood.
aroma.
After a while, Wang Dong wiped the sweat from his forehead, rushed upstairs, came closer, and said with bright eyes: "Old Xue, I studied this thing for half a night yesterday, and checked it carefully online.
, and then I was sure that this was an old Indian sandalwood. Darling, such a big piece costs 150,000 yuan. I insist on getting it. You know, this thing is becoming more and more scarce now. If you process it and sell it, you can at least quadruple the profit.
Three hundred thousand."
"Now that you know that this is the old sandalwood from India, you don't need me to talk nonsense. Find someone to process it immediately. When these old sandalwood bracelets are processed, they can just make up for the three big cats and kittens in the store. With the situation of two people, and some publicity, the store's reputation will definitely be greatly improved." Xue Chen stood up, clapped his hands, and explained.
"Okay, I'll find someone when I get back and process it as quickly as possible. Don't worry, I'll do the work." Wang Dong patted his chest and promised.
Then, he put his arm around Xue Chen's shoulders and said with envy: "You are really there. Not only is Miss Shen invited me to dinner, but I also got such a treasure. The pie in the sky will fall on your head."
Xue Chen raised his eyebrows, "Tch, this is not a falling pie, it is strength! If you go to that noodle shop, you will definitely not recognize that this is a plaque made of old sandalwood."
"hey-hey."
Being robbed by Xue Chen, Fatty Wang didn't refute, but just laughed heartlessly.
For two days in a row, Xue Chen ran between Daxing Pawn Shop and Zhuoyue Antique Shop. Shen Wanjun didn't say anything, but just told him that next Sunday, that is, in four days, there will be an antique appreciation conference, and asked him to prepare. Soon, he came forward on behalf of Daxing Pawn Shop and tried to overshadow Zhenbaoxuan Pawn Shop and Jindian Pawn Shop.
In the afternoon of the same day, Xue Chen once again received a call from Sun Jinyang, whom he had almost forgotten.
"Brother Xue, how have you considered my suggestion? If you think the blue and white pen holder from Jiaqing of the Qing Dynasty is not valuable enough, you can discuss it again. Everything is easy to discuss. Money is not an issue."
Xue Chen did not forget the threat in Sun Jinyang's words when he left Jinbihuihuang last time. He did not have the slightest fondness for Sun Jinyang. He chuckled and said: "Boss Sun, since money is not an issue, then well, the annual salary is 10 million. How about I just switch jobs to Zhenbaoxuan?"
On the other end of the phone, Sun Jinyang's face suddenly turned gloomy. Ten million was almost Zhenbaoxuan's annual profit. Xue Chen was clearly playing tricks on him when he said this.
He couldn't help but said angrily: "Xue Chen, there is no need for you to be so arrogant. There will be a time when you will regret it. By then, it will be too late!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone with a "pop" sound.
Feeling Sun Jinyang's anger, Xue Chen felt a little more vigilant. After all, you must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others.
He was not afraid that Sun Jinyang would find thugs in society to cause trouble for him. He had joined the Sanda Club when he was in college. Due to his good physique and willingness to endure hardship, he was already the vice president of the Sanda Club when he graduated. Usually two or three men could do it. It's not his opponent. Moreover, even if he can't beat him, he is confident that he can run away.
His girlfriend Luo Bing in college was also one of the top five beauties in the department. The biggest reason why she was able to be with him was a chance. Outside school, he defeated three hooligans who harassed her and performed a performance. The hero saves the beauty and captures the heart of the beauty.
Thinking of Luo Bing, Xue Chen couldn't help but sigh. Although it had been almost a year since they broke up after graduation, he still couldn't forget the good times they spent in college.
If it weren't for Luo Bing's arrogant mother and superior section chief father, and if he wasn't a poor boy from the countryside, maybe the two of them would have entered into marriage by now.
…
Sun Jinyang, who was sitting on the sofa in the large living room, was holding the phone in his hand and his face was as heavy as water.
Grandson Mo, who was sitting on the other side of the sofa, couldn't help asking: "Dad, what did he say? Did he agree?"
Sun Jinyang had veins on his forehead and roared angrily: "Zimo, don't you usually play with a lot of people in society? Pay a few people to break the legs of a boy named Xue and let him participate in the treasure appraisal competition.
time spent in a hospital bed!”
Sun Tzu Mo Deling immediately stood up and said with a sullen face: "Dad, don't worry, I'll find someone right now. I've long disliked that kid. When I break his legs, I'll tell Brother Xu Ming, and Brother Xu Ming will definitely do the same."
Happy."
Sun Jinyang nodded: "Yes, you need to have a good relationship with Xu Ming. Galaxy Industrial is not something our family can compare with, and I heard that the Xu family may also hold a meeting with Ning Group, the old chairman of the Ning Group, in the future."
At Junshan's birthday party, he proposed marriage to Ning Junshan's granddaughter. If it really happened, it would be a powerful alliance, which would be even more remarkable. These are two towering trees. As long as you hug one of them, you will be rich and wealthy for a lifetime.
"
"Dad, look at it, I will definitely do this smoothly." Sun Zimo raised a sinister and sinister smile on his lips and strode out of the house.
After walking out of the villa gate, Sun Zimo immediately took out his phone and made a call. After a few calls, he found three people from society who were willing to take over this "job".
Those three people are all unemployed. They have been wandering around the society all day long. They have been on the street for several years. It is common for them to enter the police station. When they heard that the target was just an appraiser from a pawn shop, and they only needed to break two legs, they had no skills.
content, he immediately agreed, and the reward was 5,000 yuan per person, totaling 15,000 yuan.
"Okay, money is no problem. As long as everything is done to my satisfaction, I will give you another five thousand!" Sun Tzu Mo promised generously.
"Brother Sun is a righteous man. Just look at it. If I don't beat the green shit out of him, it means he has never eaten leeks." The eldest of the three, a gangster nicknamed Brother Dao, patted his chest proudly on the phone.
The three gangsters, nicknamed Brother Dao, Xiaolang and Ermao, were all in their thirties, and after meeting with Sun Tzu Mo on Yongtai Street, they came together to a store about a hundred meters away from Daxing Pawn Shop.
A squatter stood guard at the entrance of an inconspicuous alley.
"Brother Sun, don't worry. We, our disciples, have done this kind of thing many times. I guarantee that there will be no problems and we won't cause you any trouble." Brother Da Dao grinned viciously, revealing the sword inlaid in his mouth.
Three or four gold teeth are particularly conspicuous.
Sun Tzu Mo couldn't help but take another look at the gold teeth. Although they were strange, he didn't ask any more questions.
The four of them stood guard for about an hour. Sun Jinyang, who was playing with his mobile phone, inadvertently glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw a man wearing a baseball cap walking out of Daxing Pawn Shop. When he looked carefully, it was Xue Chen!
"People are coming out!"
Sun Tzu Mo turned around and gave a low drink to Dao Ge and the other three who were leaning against the wall in boredom, chatting nonsense.
The wind and sand have been blowing recently, so Xue Chen bought a baseball cap and put it on. He was holding a black leather bag in his hand, which contained 300,000 in cash, which was part of the pawn shop's profit from the past two days. He was preparing to walk there.
Deposit the money into the pawn shop's bank account at the bank two streets away.
While walking in the middle of a small alley, three men with wet clothes, hands in their pockets, laughing strangely, whistling, almost writing "I am a bad guy" on their faces, walked towards them and pulled them away.
