Chapter 887: Entrustment of the Three Kingdoms of Tang Dynasty
"Ye Fan, are you here?"
Just when Ye Fan was about to leave the Tang family villa in despair, another tall figure walked out of the hall and greeted him with a loud laugh.
It is the Three Kingdoms of the Tang Dynasty.
"Ah, you returned so many vegetables and fruits?"
When Tang Sanguo saw Ye Fan's large and small bags, he hurriedly reached out to take them, and pulled Ye Fan into the hall: "It's unlucky for you to come. Ruoxue happened to be out on something, so she won't be back until later."
"But for me, you came just in time to help me see if a piece of porcelain is from the Ming and Qing dynasties. I'm a little unsure."
"You can eat here tonight, and we can chat for a while."
His face is no longer as mean as it used to be, but is as enthusiastic as ever, like a bee seeing nectar.
Ye Fan hesitated for a moment: "If Xue is not here, I won't stay, so as not to trouble you..." "Tsk..." Tang Sanguo deliberately said with a straight face: "If Xue is not here, I will still be here. Is it possible that the entire Tang Dynasty will still have me?"
Do you only think of Ruoxue as your home?"
"Can't you have a meal with me?"
He complained in a complaining tone: "Although you and Ruoxue are divorced, we were once husband-in-law. Our status is not about our friendship."
"That's not true."
Ye Fan smiled helplessly: "I'm just worried that if Ruoxue doesn't deal with it, Lin Qiuling... No, Aunt Lin will make it difficult for you."
"Hahaha, don't worry, she's not at home."
Tang Sanguo laughed loudly, patted Ye Fan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Lin Xiaoyan got married yesterday. Lin Sangu set up dozens of tables, and she will also set up flowing banquets for three days to take back all the red envelopes that have been scattered over the years."
"Your aunt is helping to make an appointment with someone. She won't be back for the next few days. I can't afford to lose that person, so I found an excuse to come back."
"So you don't need to worry about her going crazy."
"Tonight, you and I will have a good drink, and I will bring you my treasured daughter's red."
"Wu Ma, Ye Fan is here and bought a lot of vegetables. We will have dinner here later."
"By the way, I'll give my daughter a few pounds of red wine. I want to stay with Ye Fan until we get drunk tonight."
He pulled Ye Fan in regardless, and shouted to the kitchen: "Make more hard dishes."
"Okay."
Hearing Ye Fan's arrival, Wu's mother immediately ran out, said hello with a happy face, and then took in the things Ye Fan bought.
Ye Fan tried his best to suppress the disappointment that Tang Ruoxue had brought to him, and looked at Tang Sanguo and forced out a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, uncle."
"Uncle..." Tang Sanguo also smiled bitterly: "Things have changed and people have changed. I really miss the days when you called me dad."
Ye Fan lowered his head and said nothing.
"Stop talking about this, go to my study and help me look at those antiques."
Tang Sanguo dismissed his lost thoughts and pulled Ye Fan into the study.
The study is not small, more than fifty square meters, the same area as a bedroom and a living room, but it is filled with books and antiques everywhere.
It's full of charm and has an indescribable antique flavor.
This is the first time Ye Fan has entered Tang Sanguo's study. When he was the son-in-law of Tang Sanguo, he was strictly prohibited from entering by Tang Sanguo for fear that he would break antiques carelessly.
Now, he was warmly invited in by Tang Sanguo, and it was inevitable that he would feel a lot of emotion in his heart.
But what made Ye Fan's eyes widen the most was that the walls of the study were covered with maps, including those in major cities such as Huahai, Nanling, and Longdu.
The map was detailed down to the street lights on every street, and Ye Fan could even see Huahai and Jin Zhilin in Longdu.
Moreover, the map was drawn by hand. The skill left Ye Fan stunned. It was like a map version of "Along the River During Qingming Festival".
"I usually have nothing to do. I like to draw maps and have fun."
Seeing Ye Fan staring at the map in a daze, Tang Sanguo laughed loudly and turned Ye Fan's gaze over: "Sit over here, and I'll show you a few things."
Afterwards, Tang Sanguo quickly brought a few antiques, a vase, a short sword, and an inkstone.
He placed it in front of Ye Fan and said with a smile: "Come on, Ye Fan, take a look at this thing. I bought it at a high price to see if it is real or fake?"
"This vase is fake."
Ye Fan pointed at a pattern on the vase and said, "Look at the color of this pattern. It was impossible to refine it in the Ming Dynasty."
"This dagger is also a high imitation, but it's made with advanced techniques, so it looks primitive."
"As for this inkstone, it is indeed made from ancient earth. The earth is no problem, but it will take at most three to five years."
"Because the seller takes the soil from the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty, refines it, and then buries it for three to five years and takes it out, and then he can sell it at a good price..." Ye Fan told all the flaws in Tang Sanguo's antiques in one breath, making Tang Sanguo look...
He looked very regretful and lamented that hundreds of thousands of private money had been wasted.
"Ye Fan, you are really getting better and better. This kind of vision is probably not comparable to Master Ghost Eye."
"The waves behind you in the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. I really regret that I drove you out because I was so confused."
Tang Sanguo gave Ye Fan a thumbs up, and at the same time there was a trace of self-blame on his face.
Ye Fan smiled and waved his hand: "Uncle, thank you."
"I didn't win the prize. I am seeking truth from facts."
Tang Sanguo threw all the antiques into the trash can, and then motioned Ye Fan to sit down on the sofa: "With your current strength and connections, as long as you are determined to make progress, you can do more than just gain a foothold in Longdu?"
"If you put down your ambition and energy, you will definitely become a new upstart in Longdu, or even become the sixth company in China."
He sighed softly: "The world is so wonderful, you shouldn't be limited to a little Jin Zhilin."
"Uncle was joking."
Ye Fan responded with a smile: "I'm just a doctor. I can save patients and make a small amount of money. Some upstarts or the sixth one are too far away."
"I don't think about these things either. The more I think about them, the more I want, the more I have to worry about."
"Compared to the rich and prosperous days with big winds and waves, I prefer the ordinary days of peace and tranquility."
He looked at Tang Sanguo and said tentatively: "I heard that my uncle once had a glorious life. Don't you think that such a peaceful life is rare?"
Ye Fan thought of the thousand taels of gold on the Alyssa, as well as the comment about Tang Sanguo hiring murderers to kill people.
"Yes, I have been brilliant too."
Tang Sanguo didn't hide anything, his eyes flashed: "I, Tang Sanguo, can be considered the first person to undergo such a huge change from heaven to hell."
He was just one step away from the peak of power. Unfortunately, even at this step, he couldn't climb up even though he tried his best, and fell to the bottom of the valley to survive.
Then he looked at Ye Fan and smiled: "I have really made a lot of progress this year. You can even know my old stories."
Ye Fan directly let Han Jianfeng take the blame: "I also heard what my brother-in-law said after drinking."
"It doesn't matter. I used to feel embarrassed and didn't want you to know."
Tang Sanguo was calm and calm: "Now I understand that shame is shame. It can only be washed away, but cannot be covered up."
"Uncle, everything has passed before."
Ye Fan could feel the melancholy of Tang Sanguo: "Being able to save your life and live the life of a happy man now is considered a blessing from God. There is no need to think too much."
He knew that Tang Sanguo was unwilling, and hoped to resolve his knot.
"There are some things you can't get through."
Tang Sanguo smiled and then shook Ye Fan's hand: "For me, after experiencing the light, I can no longer endure the darkness."
"After experiencing the taste of peak power, you can no longer tolerate the dullness of life."
"For some people, regardless of whether I am useless or not, living is just a thorn in my side."
He took the thermos cup and took a sip of tea: "So a lot of things are really hard to get through."
Ye Fan remembered what Ye Wujiu had said to him, which was similar to Tang Sanguo's emotion.
Some things are really hard to get through.
For Tang Sanguo, he was still unwilling to give up after twenty years. For Tang Sect, the dead are the real peace of mind, so he did not say anything anymore.
"Ye Fan, you can obviously achieve greater achievements and have a more glorious future, but you choose to be a little doctor."
"I feel a bit pity and sorry for your talent."
Tang Sanguo laughed again, and then changed the topic: "But I also know that everyone has their own ambitions, and some things can't be forced."
"So I don't advise you to be a prince, general or minister."
His expression became serious: "But I want to entrust you with something."
"Entrust?"
Ye Fan was shocked when he heard this: "Why did uncle say that?
What's wrong?
Are you at risk?"
"Not yet, but that doesn't mean there won't be in the future."
Tang Sanguo smiled warmly: "I just think you have the ability to fulfill my wish."
Ye Fan exhaled a long breath: "Uncle, please tell me."
"Someday something happens to me, please help me take care of Ruoxue."
Tang Sanguo stood up and walked behind Ye Fan, patted him on the shoulder and said: "If it's still possible, have another child with her so that my lineage can be passed on..."
