Chapter 7 Pawning Ancient Jade

"How did you offend Liang Jian?" Lu Feng asked.

When Liang Jian was mentioned, Wu Liang showed anger on his face. "The surname Liang is so damn unauthentic. He asked someone to find me and asked me to help him buy a second-hand magnetic resonance machine. I bought it for him and delivered it to him personally.

The goods came to my door, but the guy found fault, saying it was bad, that it was damaged, and he was trying to lower the price. Naturally, I didn't agree, so I was beaten up because I was on his territory."

"But I'm not someone to be bullied. I'll have to settle this debt with him sooner or later!"

Wu Liang glanced at his watch. "Doctor Lu, Doctor Xia, and this little beauty, let's go! I'm treating you today. You can choose the place as you like."

Xia Qianfan pulled Lu Feng. "Mr. Wu, it is the duty of a doctor to treat illnesses and save lives. Besides, you also paid us, so you don't owe us any favors."

"Lu Feng, didn't you promise me that you would accompany me to buy tables, chairs and medical equipment later?"

Lu Feng smiled slightly. "Wu Liang, we still have something to do, so we won't eat this meal. If you have something to do, go and do it first."

"Then...okay." Wu Liang nodded. "I happen to have something to do, so let's meet up another day."

After sending Wu Liang away, Lu Feng looked at Xia Qianfan, wanting to hear her explanation.

"This Wu Liang has a notorious reputation. He recognizes money but not people. I advise you to have less contact with him in the future, lest you be betrayed and still counting money for others."

Ji Xiaomei echoed: "Doctor Lu, Sister Fan is right, Wu Liang's reputation and character are indeed not good."

Lu Feng nodded and said nothing.

After all, Xia Qianfan and Ji Xiaomei's original intention was for his own good.

"Ah!" Ji Xiaomei suddenly exclaimed. "Sister Fan, this... Wu Liang really gave me two thousand yuan!"

Xia Qianfan was stunned.

Could it be that this time is still a coincidence?

It must be blind.

Anyway, if Xia Qianfan is beaten to death, he doesn’t believe that Lu Feng can tell fortunes.

"I'm a little hungry. Is there anything to eat?"

Lu Feng's internal strength had not yet recovered, and he became hungry again soon after finishing breakfast.

"There are two more buns." Ji Xiaomei handed the buns to Lu Feng like a treasure. "I kept these specially."

Lu Feng took it in his hand and smiled. "Xiao Mei, in view of your performance, I decided to help you feel your bones for free."

"I don't want it!" Ji Xiaomei blushed and slipped into the bathroom.

"Come out with me!"

Xia Qianfan's voice was cold, and he obviously couldn't understand Lu Feng's moral character. After speaking, he covered his lower back and walked out.

Although she didn't break any bones, it was different from Wu Liang's dislocation, so her recovery was slower.

"Where to go?"

"Buy tables, chairs, and medical equipment."

Lu Feng took a few steps and grabbed Xia Qianfan. "Sister Xiaofan, your waist is inconvenient, so I'd better go."

Xia Qianfan shook his head. "No, you studied Chinese medicine. You don't understand Western medical equipment. You don't know which brand is both economical and practical."

Lu Feng smiled and did not explain.

If he said that he was actually proficient in Western medicine, Xia Qianfan would definitely think he was bragging.

"And..." Xia Qianfan hesitated. "Forget it, just come with me."

Lu Feng said no more and helped Xia Qianfan out of the hospital.

Bragging about electric cars. "Which way to go?"

"Go straight along the road and reach Jewelry Street first."



Jewelry Street.

It is located on the most prosperous commercial street in Rongzhou East District, three stops away from Qianfan Medical Center.

"welcome."

Lu Feng helped Xia Qianfan enter a pawn shop called Xinglong, and the welcoming lady greeted him warmly.

The decoration of the pawn shop is somewhat primitive, and the items on the shelves are very miscellaneous, including various ancient books, porcelain, jade, calligraphy and paintings, etc.

"Sir, Miss, I am Lu Tao, the manager of this Xinglong Pawn Shop. Do you want to buy something or pawn something?"

Behind the counter, a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face greeted him warmly.

"As something." Xia Qianfan walked to the counter, took out a small cloth bag from his bag and placed it on the counter.

Lu Tao opened the cloth bag and took out a piece of jade.

This piece of jade is very much like a goose egg. It is generally milky white, smooth and round, but not very pure, with a little dark yellow inside.

It is obvious that this is an old piece of jade.

Lu Tao picked up the jade and turned on a strong flashlight to take a photo. "Miss, where did you get this jade? Did you buy it? How much did it cost?"

This is the rule of the pawn shop. You must ask clearly about the source of the item to avoid buying something dirty.

"It's passed down from ancestors. I heard from my grandma that it was passed down to her by her grandma's grandma."

Lu Tao nodded. "According to my observation, this is indeed an ancient jade that is more than two hundred years old. But unfortunately, the jade is not pure enough, so the price... I wonder how much do you want it to be?"

"One hundred thousand."

Xia Qianfan didn't know the true value of this piece of jade, but even if she knew it, she didn't dare to pay for it because she was worried that she wouldn't have the money to redeem it.

Jade is passed down from ancestors, and its value cannot be measured by money. It contains the longing for the ancestors. If it were not for the fact that he did not have the capital to reopen the medical clinic, Xia Qianfan would not be willing to pawn the jade.

Lu Tao shook his head. "The price is a bit high. The most I can give you is fifty thousand."

Xia Qianfan frowned. "Manager Lu, if my guess is correct, I will take this jade to another pawn shop and it will definitely be higher than the price you paid."

The reason Xia Qianfan came to Xinglong Pawn Shop was because there were so many people here. The pawn shop's business was not good, and when it was time to redeem the pawn, if she had no money to redeem it, the chance of the other party selling it would be much smaller.

"I believe it, I believe it!" Lu Tao's face was full of bitterness. "Miss, it's not that I have a dark heart, this... there is really no way."

"Is it related to the sudden deterioration of business?" Lu Feng said firmly.

Lu Tao nodded. "To be honest, I was originally the vice president and senior treasure appraiser of Xinglong Jewelry Company. I was framed by others and lost a batch of jewelry that I personally purchased and appraised. The company suffered a huge loss.

I suffered a huge loss, so I was demoted here. I was promised that if I have outstanding performance, I will be reinstated."

"Alas..." Lu Tao looked up to the sky and sighed. "Although the business was not very good at the beginning, it was still passable. But for some reason, business has been deteriorating since half a month ago. No one has come at all these days."

After speaking, Lu Tao smiled awkwardly. "I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have complained to the guest. Miss, is the price of fifty thousand okay?" He looked at Xia Qianfan pitifully.

"Okay then, it will be for half a year."

Xia Qianfan felt that she was in the same boat and felt that Manager Lu was pitiful. She also felt that 50,000 was almost enough, so she agreed.

"thanks, thanks!"

Lu Tao wants to issue a receipt.

"Manager Lu, do you know why the business here suddenly deteriorated?"

"Sir, do you know?" Lu Tao stopped writing and asked feebly.

He was already ready to pack up and leave, and he couldn't show any interest in Lu Feng's words.

"That's because someone tampered with your store and ruined the feng shui."

Xia Qianfan looked helpless.

This magician can't stop for a while, won't he die if he doesn't fool people?

"If you can pay 100,000 yuan for this piece of jade, I can break it for you for free. I might as well put it here, I can not only solve your business problem, but also make your store prosperous."

"This...this..."

"Manager Lu, let me tell you one more thing. Someone has set up a money-dispersing array in your store. If the array cannot be found, not only will the store not be able to continue operating, but it will also affect your future."

"That's it. It's up to you whether you believe it or not."

Lu Tao looked at Lu Feng again. He was wearing an old beige T-shirt, washed blue jeans, and a pair of cloth shoes worth more than ten yuan.

He's not particularly handsome, but he's very good-looking.

But Lu Tao looked around and couldn't see how Lu Feng looked like an expert.

Lu Tao was a little confused.

Agree, he will pay 50,000 yuan more.

But if you refuse, you will offend others, and they might take the jade to someone else's house.

"welcome."

At this time, another man and woman walked in.

Lu Tao breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly greeted him. "Mr. Chen, you are here."

Xia Qianfan frowned immediately when he saw the two of them.

[Author's digression]: Please collect it, please give me a banknote, thank you.
