Chapter 22 Antique Exchange Market

Chapter 22 Antique Exchange Market

Some people are happy and some are worried. Jiang Yun has temporarily solved the big trouble, but Wei Tu, who is in a neighboring province, is not so lucky.

A group of three people arrived in a neighboring province that afternoon. After settling in for a while, they went straight to several surrounding villages, but unfortunately found nothing.

Not only that, but they were also ridiculed by the local villagers, saying why should they sell old items to the three of them? They would not go to the antique exchange market themselves to yell at them, saying that they and their group were just middlemen who made a profit from the price difference, openly bullying the people!

The villagers became more and more excited as they talked, and some directly picked up brooms and chased people away.

*

At night, Biaozi, who was lying on the bed, became more and more angry as he thought about it. He suddenly sat up and said, "Damn it, this is the first time in my life that so many people have pointed my nose at me and laughed at me! I'm so angry!"

"

Tang Xiaosan was so angry that he couldn't sleep, and said angrily: "Isn't that right? When will we three brothers suffer from such cowardice!"

Wei Tu didn't answer, turned around, and lay on his side with his back to the two of them, his mind working rapidly...

Judging from the current situation, there is no need to go to the surrounding villages. Since the villagers chose to take their things to the antique exchange market to sell, the three of them could simply go there to pick up the missing items.

When no one spoke, Biaozi asked tentatively: "Brother Tu, are you asleep?"

He didn't give up and winked at Tang Xiaosan again, asking him to ask a question as well.

"Brother Tu, are you asleep?"

Wei Tu turned around fiercely, gave them both a slap in the face, and shouted: "What do you two want to do if you don't sleep in the middle of the night? If anyone doesn't sleep, don't go to the antique exchange market with me tomorrow."

Hearing this, the two people who had looked dejected just now suddenly understood.

Biaozi: "Sleep! Sleep! I put on the pillow and fell asleep immediately!"

Tang Xiaosan: "I can fall asleep if I close my eyes!"

I saw the two of them lying flat on their backs, and the sound of snoring started one after another.

Wei Tu was so noisy that he covered his head under the pillow and cursed secretly: "Damn it, did you poke a toad's nest?!"

*

The sky was bright and the sun was shining brightly. The three people who got up early had already arrived at the antique exchange market.

The scale here is very large, about twice as large as that of the cosmetics market. There are many strange and rare things in it, but most of them are jade, jade and various raw stones and wool materials.

Biaozi and Tang Xiaosan only had a superficial understanding of these things. They followed closely behind Wei Tu, and the three of them walked around, always looking for opportunities to pick things up.

The group of people were concentrating on the various stalls around them and did not pay attention to the road ahead. A young man who came towards them bumped into them, and the four or five jadeite stones he was holding in his hands also fell to the ground.

Biaozi picked up a piece at his feet. A small piece of stone skin was manually wiped off the black stone, revealing a dazzling green color.

He was ecstatic, tried his best to restrain his facial expression, nudged Wei Tu with his elbow, and reminded in a low voice: "Brother Tu, look, this stone is good, there should be something in it."

These words happened to be heard by the young man opposite. He rolled his eyes, smiled and said enthusiastically: "Comrade, you have good eyesight. I am going to take this rough stone and sell it in front of you. If you want

If you like it, how about we negotiate a price?"

Wei Tu took the stone in his hand, weighed it, and handed it back to the young man: "No need, we brothers are just here to have a look."

After saying that, he took the two of them and continued walking forward.

The young man rolled his eyes at them and whispered: "Bah, you are a bunch of poor people." He strode away without looking back.

Biaozi became anxious and asked Wei Tu: "Brother Tu, why did you let people leave? That color is so gorgeous! It must be Zhengyang green when it comes out!"

Wei Tu directly punched him on the head: "It's still green! Have you ever seen a piece of rough stone that can shed crumbs when you weigh it? Huh?"

Tang Xiaosan understood: "So the skin of the stone just now is fake? The green on it must also be fake?"

Wei Tu nodded.

Biaozi was so frightened that he almost fell into the trap of others.

Wei Tu patted his shoulder and said comfortingly: "The water here is very deep. I don't blame you for making a mistake. We have to be more cautious next time!"

The group of people walked around and observed all morning, but they didn't pick up anything.

It was approaching noon, and the three grown men were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs. They sat down at the food stall at the main entrance of the market and ordered three bowls of noodles.

While I was eating, I saw two familiar figures coming across from me.

"Brother Tu, look, are those men and women the brother and sister from the scrap recycling depot?" Biaozi pointed.

Tang Xiaosan looked in the direction and recognized the two of them at a glance: "Hey! It's really awesome!"

Wei Tu turned his head to look, and his originally relaxed brows suddenly furrowed, and he said worriedly: "No, they are being watched, I'm afraid something is going to happen!"

The brother and sister, who had no idea, were standing at the entrance of the market and were shocked by the prosperous scene in front of them.

Jiang Hao opened his mouth wide and exclaimed: "Xiaoyun, this place is much bigger than the dispensing market!"

Jiang Yun nodded: "It is indeed much bigger, brother, let's go in and have a look?"

"good!"

As soon as the two of them were about to walk in, Jiang Hao was bumped into by a man who came up from behind and staggered forward a few steps.

He turned his head and said angrily: "Can you walk? Didn't you see someone in front of you?"

The man lowered his head and apologized: "I'm sorry, buddy! There was an emergency at home, so I didn't pay attention at the moment!" He turned around and left quickly.

Before the brother and sister could stand still, they heard a cry from beside them: "Thief! Catch the thief! Catch him quickly!"

I saw the man who hit someone just now started running like crazy, followed closely by two people.

Jiang Yun and Jiang Hao looked at each other, and suddenly they both had a bad feeling.

"That man stole your money, why didn't he check his wallet?" Wei Tu's voice sounded behind them.

Jiang Yun's expression changed instantly: "Brother, take a look!"

Jiang Hao rummaged anxiously, but unfortunately he couldn't find his wallet after searching all over his body.

His face turned pale: "Xiaoyun, our money has been stolen!"

Jiang Yun's heart sank suddenly. This money was all their belongings. Now let alone the capital, even the travel expenses back were gone.

What can we do?! Do the two brothers and sisters have to live on the street and beg?

She frowned, bit her lower lip, clenched her hands into fists, and looked angrily at the direction where the thief was fleeing, her thoughts in a mess.

"Don't worry, my two brothers have already chased him and we should be able to find him back."

Wei Tu, who was behind him, spoke words of comfort in a deep and steady voice.

She was so busy that she didn't pay attention to who was behind her. Jiang Yun turned around, and a handsome and tough face came into view.

It's him!

Standing under the scorching sun, Wei Tu had beads of sweat on his forehead. He rubbed his face, grinned at her, and his eyes were full of determination.

Jiang Yun suddenly felt that this man was quite honest and didn't seem to be that annoying. At least at this moment, he made her feel at ease.

Author's Little Theater:

Wei Tu raised his eyebrows, smiled evilly, leaned close to his ear, and murmured fondly: "My dear wife, am I so powerful?"

Jiang Yun, blushing with shame, deliberately played the opposite tune: "The thief hasn't been caught yet! He's so awesome!"
