Chapter three hundred and forty-seven think long-term
John picked up the wine glass and shook it gently, then politely said thank you to Xu Ming, took a sip, said "good wine", and then answered Xu Ming.
"In short, it is a very precious black jade. It is also the most important and favorite piece of black jade of my father. He calls it the Eye of God because it was given to the world by God. Oh no, in your country it should be said
The Jade Emperor..."
Xu Ming shook his head secretly. He felt that what John said was really unreliable. How could it be possible if it was given by God? It was all a myth, okay? It felt like it was a bit exaggerated. It was just a piece of jade, no matter how precious it was, how much could it be worth?
"That black gem was stolen by a hateful international thief. My father was very angry and must get the Eye of God back. As far as I know, it is likely to be left somewhere in this city.
.”
"But in the past few days, at least hundreds of people have come to the door with black jade, but it seems that the piece you are looking for is not available, and the identification conditions you gave are too vague. You can feel it in your hands.
It feels different, but what does it feel like to be different?" Xu Ming frowned.
"Difference means difference. It is unique in the world. You can feel it as long as you get it. I don't know the details, because the Eye of God has always been in my father's hand. I have only seen it.
I've never touched it." John's blue eyes sparkled.
"Xu Ming, thank you for your help. You have won my friendship. If you go to the United States, I will also entertain you very warmly. If you help me find the Eye of God, I will also use my knowledge in the 'Golden Angel'
A part of **’s shares will be given to you.”
Xu Ming smiled heartily: "It's too polite to say these things. My friend, let's do this. I think we can't just wait for the Eye of God to be delivered to our door. We have to take the initiative. I will ask people to contact everyone in the city.
Pawn shops and antique shops ask people to send out photos of the Eye of God and notify me immediately if they find any trace of the Eye of God."
"Thank you so much, friend." John Kermeon happily picked up the wine glass, "I wish us success, cheers."
The next day, Xu Ming ordered his brother Xu Liang to find some people to print hundreds of copies of the black jade photos provided by John, distribute them in all antique-related pawn shops and antique shops in Haicheng, and declare
If there are any clues about this piece of black jade, I can get Xu Ming's thanks.
Excellence Antique Shop also received the photos, so Wang Dong specially called Xue Chen to inform him.
After Xue Chen heard about this, he immediately came to the antique shop, took the photo of the black ancient jade in his hand, and looked at it carefully.
"Old Xue, the person here is from Galaxy Industry. He said that once he has clues about the black jade in the photo and informs him, Xu Ming will thank him and give him a generous reward." Wang Dong curled his lips and then murmured, "
How did Xu Ming get together with that American guy named John?"
Putting down the photo, Xue Chen's eyes moved and he thought to himself, the blond and blue-eyed young man he saw in the restaurant that day must be John Kermeon. As for why he got together with Xu Ming, he naturally didn't
Not sure.
Wang Dong held the photo in his hand, tilted his head, looked left and right, and muttered: "What is so special about this piece of black jade? He actually asked that American guy to advertise on TV, and now he asked Xu Ming to distribute flyers all over the city.
.”
Not just Wang Dong, after Xu Ming sent people to dozens of pawn shops and antique shops across the city, the entire antique circle in Haicheng was shaken, causing quite a stir.
Everyone was attracted by the piece of black jade in the photo. They were curious about what kind of jade this piece of black jade was that was worthy of such a big fight.
Many people took photos of black jade to study, but found that it was different from any black jade known today, and several strange runes outlined on the black jade also confused many people.
But this is doomed to be a waste of water. The ancient jade is no longer what it used to be. Except for the strange runes still remaining on it, both texture and color have undergone earth-shaking changes.
However, Xu Ming's move caused the price of black jade in the market to continue to rise, and the number of people bringing black jade to the Galaxy Building also increased day by day, making the two invited appraisers extremely busy.
In the blink of an eye, two weeks passed, but nothing was gained.
Seeing that so much time had passed without receiving the goods, John Kermeon had to give up these two methods temporarily. He made a call to the United States using an encrypted phone and explained his current situation to his father.
.
After a long silence on the other end of the phone, a deep voice came over: "I think that damn thief must have handed the Eye of God into the hands of a powerful person before he died, and that person also found out
The mystery of it!”
John could hear that his father was very annoyed and seemed to be on the verge of rage. He was also very curious in his heart. Is this so-called Eye of God really so precious that it can be valued so much by his father who is worth hundreds of millions?
"John, you must be under surveillance there."
John said with certainty: "Yes, father, I did find that someone was watching me, but they did not interfere with me in any way."
"Okay, let's do this for now. Your method will definitely not be successful. You may have already alerted the enemy. It would be a waste of time to stay here any longer. Come back and think about it in the long term before making any plans."
Two days later, Xu Ming sent John to the plane. He watched the plane take off. He looked at it twice with a black jade photo in his hand, tore it into two pieces, threw it away, and was blown away by the wind.
Got into the car.
…
After first hearing about the death of the young man in sportswear and the origin of the ancient jade, Xue Chen was really nervous for a few days, but as time went by, his mood relaxed.
He realized that as long as he didn't announce it himself, there would be no reason for outsiders to know about his acquisition of the ancient jade, so there was no need to worry.
In this way, in addition to his normal life, he occasionally paid attention to this matter every day. After about half a month, the storm of searching for black jade gradually subsided.
Instead, a happy event ushered in, that is, the parents of Brother Chao and Sister Ying were going to meet to discuss marriage, that is, engagement.
After what happened last time, the woman's family naturally no longer had any objections to Xue Chao, and Xue Chao also took Li Xueying back to her hometown and met her parents. Facing Li Xueying, who was straightforward and considerate, the uncle and aunt were naturally
One hundred satisfactions.
On the day of the engagement, Xue Chen naturally would not be absent and rushed there on the same day. The meeting between the parents of both parties went very smoothly, and the approximate date of the wedding was quickly finalized, which was at the end of the year.
As uncle and aunt, Xue Hongfa and Luo Huijuan naturally came. After attending the engagement banquet, Xue Chen took the two elders back to Haicheng, intending to stay in Haicheng for one day and then send them back to their hometown.
On the way back, Luo Huijuan couldn't help but mutter: "Xiaochen, you see your brother Chao is engaged now, and the date is not far away. You have to hurry up, mom is still waiting to have her grandson."
Xue Chen, who was driving the car, grinned and agreed vaguely.
Xue Hongfa also asked: "Xiaochen, are you and Miss Xuanxuan boyfriend and girlfriend?"
"Uh, no." Xue Chen said.
The old couple were both very satisfied that Ning Xuanxuan, who was pretending to be a good-natured person, had been deceived, but now they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when they heard Xue Chen say that it wasn't that kind of relationship.
"Then you haven't found a girlfriend yet?" Xue Hongfa asked.
"Um."
"In this case, your mother and I will help you make arrangements. You are not young anymore. You cannot delay any longer. While your mother and I can still move our arms and legs, hurry up and get married. Maybe we can help you raise the child.
Bring him up." Xue Hongfa said without doubt.
Although Xue Chen didn't like his parents always worrying about this matter, he couldn't say anything and could only pretend to be dumb.
When the car drove to Haicheng, he subconsciously wanted to go straight to Jinguan City, but suddenly he realized something. Qi Yan was living with him now. If his parents saw it, what might happen to the two old people's minds?
What would you think?
With this thought in his mind, Xue Chen organized his words and said: "Mom and Dad, I have a friend living there. I will introduce him to you later."
"Friends? What friends?" Luo Huijuan asked.
"The sister of my college classmate is Wang Dong, as I told you." Xue Chen said.
Sure enough, the two elders grasped the key point instantly and said almost in unison: "A girl lives with you?"
"Well, that's it." Xue Chen glanced in the rearview mirror and saw that the expression on the second elder's face was a little different from before.
"Xiaochen, how old is that girl today?" Luo Huijuan asked with concern.
"She should be one year younger than me." Xue Chen said slowly.
Xue Hongfa then asked: "Then why does she live with you instead of renting a house?"
"Maybe it's to save money." Xue Chen sweated in his heart. He didn't know why Qi Yan insisted on living with him. Moreover, when she moved in, she was acting uncharacteristically. She suddenly became so good at taking care of others, which made him a little confused.
mind.
When the car arrived at Jinguan City, Xue Chen went upstairs and opened the door, and saw Qi Yan cleaning the living room.
Qi Yan saw two old people standing next to Xue Chen. After being slightly startled, she put down the rag in her hand, walked over, and said softly: "Xue Chen, are these two uncles and aunties?"
At the same time, the two elders also habitually observed Qi Yan with a special look. Afterwards, the two looked at each other and felt satisfied in each other's eyes.
When Qi Yan went to get slippers from the shoe rack nearby, Luo Huijuan whispered: "Apart from dressing up a bit like a tomboy, he is quite good-looking and so diligent."
"What do you know? Young people nowadays are pursuing individuality, which I think is good." Xue Hongfa retorted.
The corner of Xue Chen's mouth twitched slightly. (To be continued)
