"Are you interested in these paperweights?" The middle-aged man walked to the counter. Seeing Chopra staring intently at the metal paperweights, he quickly introduced: "You have a good eye. These paperweights are quite old.
It’s more collectible than my modern screens.”
Gong Jian curled his lips when he heard this. This person bluntly said that his screens were all imitations, but these paperweights may not be real. However, Chopra looked at them very carefully. Could it be that they really have some value?
"How do you sell this?" Chopra pointed to a slightly scratched silver metal paperweight. This paperweight looked plain and simple. Apart from these scratches, there were no patterns or patterns on it. When the shop owner saw this stunning woman, she actually
Referring to such a paperweight, I was slightly disappointed.
"Is this the one you're interested in?" The store owner rolled his eyes: "I'm not going to hide it from you, I'm afraid this paperweight is a poor imitation. I won't ask you for more. You can take it for 00 yuan.
Walk."
"Well, it's really not something that's very old. It's only fifty or sixty years old at most." Chogula nodded with satisfaction. The shop owner didn't take her as a victim, which she thought was okay.
"Sir, aren't you going to buy your girlfriend a pair of this paperweight? Look at this one." The man immediately took another very gorgeous paperweight from the counter.
"The fine filigree cloisonne craftsmanship you like costs 500 each. Let's be friends. You two can buy it together, and it will cost you 2,000. What do you think?" The shop owner looked at Gong Jian with a smile.
It seems that you took me for granted. Gong Jian said angrily: "Thank you, but just buy one."
"I want this, I don't like the bells and whistles." Chopra turned to Gong Jian and asked Gong Jian to pay the boss.
It didn't matter to the boss that he couldn't fool these two people. Anyway, he picked up this paperweight. Although the money was not much, a fly, no matter how small, is still meat.
Speaking of which, this paperweight is interesting. One day when his shop was closing, this paperweight appeared in front of their shop. Since he was selling such things, he put the paperweight away.
However, after repeated inspections, he could not find out the origin of this paperweight. It must be a fake, so he just threw it on the counter and sold it. Unexpectedly, it was sold today.
Paying the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other hand. Chopra put this very simple-looking metal paperweight in his hand and was indeed very happy. However, Gong Jian pretended to be casual and said to the shop owner: "Hey, boss, I just saw you
An acquaintance came to your store, can I ask him what he bought from you?"
"My acquaintance, no one has come into my store all morning. You are my first customer. Are you dazzled?" The store owner pretended to be confused and didn't say anything about what he just said.
Things about Xiang.
Seeing him being so prevaricating, Gong Jian felt even more suspicious. However, in order to avoid disturbing the situation, he said: "Oh, I really saw that my friend was a female classmate of mine just now. Or am I really dazzled?"
"Female? Not really. You must be dazzled." The store owner laughed, shrugged his shoulders, and seemed to relax all of a sudden.
Gong Jian saw this and without further words took the goddess and walked out. Since the store owner was so nervous when it came to Chen Xiang, the two of them must be involved in some illegal activities. If he just asked directly, it would be absolutely impossible to find out.
Yes, it looks like I will have to visit the antique market a few more times.
"You can go shopping here today. I'm tired too. What about you?" Now that he has gained something, Gong Jian is no longer greedy. This antique market is here. You can come anytime you want, as long as the goddess Chopra
Together, he can continue to pick up the slack. The top priority now is to figure out what Chen Xiang is doing.
Chopra also seemed tired. She nodded and said, "Let's go back. I want to eat braised beef noodles."
"Uh, okay!" Gong Jian was speechless for a while. The three goddesses really liked instant noodles. He originally planned to treat the goddess to a slightly better meal, but unexpectedly she took the initiative to offer instant noodles. Instant noodles will be instant noodles. Then
Just go home.
Gong Jian and Chopra walked out of the market and were about to get into their cars when they saw Chen Xiang from a distance again!
"Let's go, get in the car." Gong Jian, who was naked on the road, was afraid that Chen Xiang would see him, so he quickly got into the car with the goddess. He started the car and drove forward slightly to observe carefully.
At this time, Chen Xiang was talking to another shorter man. The man had dark skin and looked skinny. Gong Jian thought he looked very familiar, but couldn't remember who it was for a moment.
"Okay, Brother Xiang, I get it, I'll keep an eye on it for you." The two chatted for a while and then the thin, dark man said goodbye to Chen Xiang.
"Be careful, don't leak the news to anyone." Chen Xiang saw that the man was about to leave, so he quickly warned him.
The two then went their separate ways, and Gong Jian, who was sitting in the car, was watching. Based on their brief conversation, Gong Jian became even more suspicious that the antiquities in NZT seemed to have some connection with this Chen Xiang.
"Gong Jian, I want to eat instant noodles. Those two people have left. What are you still thinking about here? Go home quickly." Chopra saw the two people walking further and further away, but Gong Jian was still there as if he was worried.
After thinking about it, she finally became anxious. Although she didn't feel hungry, she couldn't bear the thought of the deliciousness of instant noodles.
"Goddess, let's go." Gong Jian came to his senses and quickly started the car and drove towards home.
Back in his two-bedroom apartment, Gong Jian made instant noodles for the goddess and himself. While eating, he thought about who the person was. Suddenly he remembered that the person was Yang Bin, Zhang Yong's elementary school classmate.
This person has been mixed up in society since graduating from junior high school. He met this person twice when he was with Zhang Yong. Zhang Yong would sometimes approach his classmate, who had a rather strange way of doing things, to do some difficult things.
After eating the noodles, give Zhang Yong a call. Gong Jian looked at Chopra while eating the noodles, but found that the goddess was still playing with the strange metal paperweight while eating the noodles.
This paperweight seems to have no artistic value, so why is the goddess so fond of it?
Gong Jian was curious and finally couldn't help but ask: "What era do you think this is from?"
"What year? Oh, I understand. Based on your mortal time, this thing is only forty or fifty years old." Chopra said lightly.
"It's only forty or fifty years old. It doesn't have any age. It looks so ordinary. Why would you want this thing? And is it really a paperweight?" Gong Jian heard the goddess say that this thing was only forty or fifty years old.
history, I suddenly felt a little cheated. Isn’t this just a piece of scrap metal? I actually spent 00 yuan to buy it. (To be continued)
