92. Big Collector
In the hall on the first floor of the castle, when Ikekawa and the others walked in, about ten men and women were huddled in a corner, shivering.
Even if they hadn't witnessed everything that had just happened outside, they could already tell from the movement and sound alone that the town's defenses were completely vulnerable to these people.
Besides, the headless bodies of the mayor and his precious grandson are now lying outside the gate, and this scene has been peeped on.
The town of Posey is changing hands.
And the new owner is the wave of people in front of him.
"Get out. β
An indifferent voice came.
But these people are not surprised, frankly speaking, if they could run, they would have run away a long time ago, just because the other party has been blocking the door.
Now after hearing this, he suddenly received amnesty, and he didn't dare to look at Chi Chuan and them, and disappeared behind the folio copper door with a puff of smoke.
"Tsk...... It's magnificent. Ye Dong's round eyes glanced around, and he had a look of amazement.
Anqin also had a feeling that her eyes were not enough.
It's a little better for Qinan, after all, she is a daughter from a wealthy family, and this small castle is just a mansion built by Wo Bowen in his hometown, and it is definitely not the main house.
As for Ikekawa, it goes without saying.
Where did the children who grew up in a small town at the foot of the mountain ever see such a palace-like luxury.
The first floor is a duplex with a large circular dome on top, depicting a peaceful and peaceful Eden-like scene, making people look up and feel like they have stepped into a sacred land.
The furnishings in the hall are extravagant, except for a living room around a fireplace, the rest of the room is like a museum, the walls are full of magnificent paintings, and the staircase that extends upwards is a knight's armor full of metal beauty on the left and right, holding a long halberd that seems to be still sharp.
"Good stuff!"
After Qi Nan stepped forward and looked at it a few times, he closed the coffin and concluded: "Medieval antiques are rarely so well preserved. β
Chikawa pouted and said, "It's a pity it's not golden." β
He admits that the artistic value of these two sets of armor is very high, but the key is completely inconsistent with the historical development of the other side of the earth, and it will definitely make headlines if they are resold in the past, and Brother Qiang can't escape the fate of being invited to tea.
"Let's go around, it's rare to admire the mansion of the richest man. β
No one objected to this proposal of Qi Nan, in fact, Ikekawa had this intention, and don't forget what he came to Poshi Town for in the first place.
The first floor is the hall, and the others are not kitchens, storage rooms, or servants' rooms.
They walked up to the second floor after a circle, and when they came here, Chi Chuan's eyes glowed green.
Didn't you just say that the first floor looks like a museum?
The second floor is!
The layout, which is more open than the first floor, is lined with closets along the walls, and there are separate display stands everywhere else, and all kinds of antique gadgets are placed in glass enclosures, some of which are shiny with golden light.
"It is rumored that Wobo is a collector, and sure enough, he used this manor in his hometown to collect antiques. Rao is Qi Nan was a little smacked.
This room full of objects would be incalculable if they were placed before the end of the world.
All of her father's net worth may not be worth one-tenth of here.
"More money is a number to a certain extent, don't find a hobby to squander and squander, besides, if it is not a sudden end times, how to collect antiques is a sure-fire business. β
Chi Chuan smiled, and there was already an extra big hammer in his hand.
"What are you doing?" exclaimed Qi Nan.
"What do you say, take this stall, plus talk about the previous things, how about getting you a milk bath at night?"
Qi Nan swallowed his saliva, and after struggling a little, he nodded and said, "This, you can have it." β
Everyone is responsible for caring for cultural relics, and he cares about it.
Bell!
The glass of a display table shattered, and Chi Chuan took out a large gold chain from it, which was even more pompous than the kind of neck bracelet of ethnic minorities.
Bell!
The glass of another display was shattered, and this time it was a pure gold flower the size of a sunflower, and a black gem was dotted in the middle, and the devil knows what to do with it.
This feeling of doing a big ticket is so refreshing, Chi Chuan's heart is happy, and in the next second, Yu Guang glanced at a position, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
He found a golden crown!
Can you believe it?
Sneaking up to the display stand, the hammer in his hand was raised above his headβ
"Don't!"
The objection is invalid.
Bell!
The crown disappeared as soon as it was in hand.
Chikawa then turned his head to look at the staircase.
Ah Niu came with Wenz.
"What are you doing, young man?" said Wence with a wry smile.
"Can't you see it so obvious?" Ikekawa asked with a smile.
The bitterness at the corner of Weng's mouth became more and more intense, "It's all the end of the world, what do you want these things for?" Each of them is hard-won, and they all carry a piece of history behind them, can you ...... Don't lose it. β
Then I'm sorry, they're going to be lost.
Chi Chuan then remembered that this old man was engaged in history, and when he saw this scene, he was only afraid of ripping off his flesh.
"Professor, you wait a minute, I promise not to use anything else, just gold. β
The stall is very fat, and even silver Chichuan is not rare, and three or four soft girl coins are really worthless for one gram.
Weng Si wanted to stop it, but he was really powerless, especially after Ah Niu told him something along the way.
Immediately afterward, he heard the sound of glass breaking, and every time it sounded, it seemed to hit his heart.
His intuition told him that when something reached the other party's hands, there was basically no chance of survival.
It took Ikekawa more than half an hour to scavenge for the gold items here, and it's not hard to imagine how gratifying the harvest was.
He thinks that according to this rhythm, Brother Qiang can't turn around a jewelry store in Zhangluo in the small county town, and it's time to encourage him to go to the provincial capital to open a gold and silver building.
"I don't know what is on the third floor, there should be a place to sit, professor, why don't we go up and walk around together, I just have something to talk to you about." Ikekawa paced and raised his hand.
"Even if I wanted to refuse, it would be useless. Wence looked helpless.
"Don't mess up, Professor, I'm doing all this for you. Chi Chuan's face was not red, and his heart did not skip a beat.
"For, me?" said Wence, glaring.
Even Ah Niu next to him was surprised.
"That's right. Let's go, go up and find a place to sit and talk. β
As expected, the third floor is the rest area of the owner's house, which is also extremely luxurious, more than the first floor, with a large living room that can start the dance.
The group sat on the luxurious soft leather sofa, and Ikekawa also narrated the words he had thought of earlier.
Wence listened...... How does it feel like it's really for him?
"Professor, didn't you say before, there are still many places in town where you can't get in. There are also some people who are not easy to access, such as the Thirteen Elder ...... Well, now there are only eleven left, but when you become the boss here, it's a completely different story, which makes it easier for you to investigate what happened. β
Looking at Chi Chuan's smiling expression, Weng Sihu wondered, "Why are you so concerned about this?"
"That's what I said. Chi Chuan said angrily: "Professor, don't think that you are the only one who cares about the survival of mankind, I won't say it, you have seen my companion Mingke, who was born in the military, a red heart can be seen by the sun and the moon, and it is more important than your thoughts about the country and the people, and a large part of the reason why we went to Pulin City is also because of this." β
Weng Si was silent, and the expression on his face was a little complicated.
Ah Niu next to him was even more so, he never expected that this group of people would kill the town chief in an attempt to change the course of Boxi Town, not to be the emperor of the soil, but just to help Professor Weng Si ascend to the throne.
"Can Iβcan I?" asked Ons, hesitantly.
What he had to admit was that if it was really as the other party said, after he took charge of Posey Town, the investigation and research would indeed be much more effective with half the effort.
The question is, how does he serve the crowd, and who listens to him?
"Okay, if there's anything that doesn't work, I'll let you know first, so that you can prepare yourself to be the mayor of the town, and we'll take care of the rest." Chikawa patted his thigh and said, "Of course, I also have one condition." β
"You say. β
"We will come back sooner or later when we go to Purin City, and your side will investigate as soon as possible with the advantage of the number one, and it is best to wait until we have the results when we return, and then you must swear to tell us without reservation. β
Chi Chuan's idea is very simple, he is different from Ming Ke, he doesn't have the idea of caring about the world, so he thinks about investigating some strange things clearly, and finding a place to live and work in peace and contentment to enter the rhythm of retirement in advance-
He has lived so long that he spends 90% of his time in school, and he has not yet experienced the joy of adults.
If you don't have one, create one.
At that time, the secret that the town of Posey will not be invaded by the atavists may be useful.
This thing seems to be more reliable than Yo You, I think when they first discovered the stalagmite, under the coercion of the saliva atavists, didn't the atavistic army have been in a stalemate with Yo You for a while?
Until Yo Yo went crazy behind him.
But there is really not a single atavist in the town of Poxi, including within a certain range of the town.
This is like an essential barrier, the difference between using human power to deliberately create. Then, of course, it is much easier and perfect to solve the problem in essence.
Weng Si let out a long sigh, what did he think, if it was just this, he didn't have to swear at all, if he really waited for him to investigate the reason, he would like to spread the word, so that more survivors could survive, which was also his original intention.
"That's fine, I'll do my best. β
"That's it. Chikawa slapped his big hand, "That's it, you stay here first, and I'll go and meet the eleven so-called eleven patriarchs." β
......
When he came to the first floor, Ming Ke had already brought Lao Hu and Uncle Long over.
Uncle Long was still tied, and the towel in his mouth was also there, and he was now slumped on the gray carpet in front of the fireplace, looking at the group of people in front of him with a frightened expression.
When he first entered the door, he could see the two headless corpses lying in the doorway, and the two human heads rolling to the drain under the eaves.
He felt that provoking these people was the most wrong thing he had ever done in his life, and his intestines almost didn't regret it at this moment.
It was already lunchtime, everyone moved to the restaurant on the first floor, Chikawa took out some bread, milk, canned food, and cooked food, and everyone gathered around a thick rectangular table of jujube red, eating and chatting.
"If you want to put Professor Wence in power in the simplest way, you must start with the remaining eleven senators, because their influence in the town of Posey is already deep-rooted, and as long as they recognize Professor Wense's status, the others have no reason or guts to oppose it. β
Everyone understands what Ikekawa said, and the crux of the matter is how to make these people willingly accept Professor Wence and obey him.
You know, they've decided to leave, don't wait for them to leave, Professor Wence will be beheaded.
"I have the easiest way to do it. β
Ikekawa continued: "That is the deterrence of force. Later, when they come, show your hands in front of them a few times and let them know how good we are. In the current situation, they can't leave the town of Posey, and if they really want to disadvantage Professor Wenss, they will have to weigh the consequences of our reckoning after the fall. β
"I think so. Ye Dong accosted and smiled: "I'm the first to get on, I can't scare them to death!"
Both An Qin and Qi Nan nodded subconsciously.
It's simple, but it works.
Lao Hu was thoughtful.
Mingke shook his head, "This may work, but there is a problem. β
"What?" Ikekawa asked.
"They can not hurt Professor Wens, and they can even give him the title of mayor, but it is likely that they will be perfunctory to Professor Wens's orders, so I am afraid that it will not be of much help to his investigation. β
Minke thought and said, "In addition, there is actually a risk as well, for fear that they will take the risk and design a murder, such as using outsiders, and then Professor Wence will be dead, so what's the point of our revenge? Of course, this is just an example, I mean, a verbal threat alone is not binding enough." β
Ikekawa held his chin and thought about it, admitting that his words did make sense.
"I have a solution. At this time, Lao Hu suddenly said.
Everyone's eyes lit up, and they all looked at him.
"Ikekawa-sama, you don't remember, we found a prescription for in the car......"
Hearing him say this, Chi Chuan's eyes couldn't help but light up.
once got an ancient prescription, which is very weird, under normal circumstances, it is a tonic, but after encountering a kind of pollen, it will turn into poison, and Uncle Kun died because of this.
He instantly understood what Lao Hu meant, and there was an extra thick piece of yellow paper in his hand.
But after looking at it, he frowned again.
"There are more than 20 kinds of medicinal ingredients in it, and that kind of pollen, doesn't know how long it will take to collect it, where can we find it in a while?"
"Tsk...... It's also ha. Lao Hu scratched his head.
Everyone ate silently, and there was no better way for a while.
After Chi Chuan put away the prescription, he had a plan, quickly took out a small notebook from his trouser pocket, and began to write square characters......
