Chapter 56: Opponent
Seeing Charlotte with a resolute face, Don didn't say anything, after all, this matter was decided by Charlotte, and he also believed that if he knew the other party's plan, as long as he was careful to avoid them, there would be no problem!
Charlotte took out a hundred dollars and stuffed it into Ju Zhengde's hand. She smiled and said, "Thank you for reminding us." Get out of here. Don't let anyone find out. We'll be ready!"
Ju Zhengde firmly refused to accept Charlotte's money, but Charlotte shoved it into her hand, and after saluting with both hands, he quietly walked out of the small hotel.
After lunch, Charlotte and Yao Yongjun set off in their car, moving quickly all the way, with the aim of making Gong Yuansi's men unable to catch up with them.
The facts are the same, so Charlotte and Yao Yongjun suddenly drove away. The bodyguards quickly informed the people that they were chasing Charlotte while driving, but because Charlotte Yao Yongjun was ready, he did not catch up at all.
Of course, none of this will help them. After all, it is the head snake in the Chuhua area. After chasing for more than half an hour, when Charlotte's car appeared on the opposite mountainside, the bodyguard sneered and led people to chase after him from another path.
Charlotte looked at the tracking vehicle that had disappeared behind her, and said with a smile: "It seems that our method is not bad, they can't catch up!"
Both of them relaxed, and Don slowed down, after all, it is indeed a very dangerous thing to drive at high speed on such a mountain road.
Henry Yao Yongjun is very familiar with Singapore. After more than seven hours of bumpy driving, the two finally arrived at Chu Hua's destination. Chuhua is a small city, but it is not more prosperous than Naypyidaw. Foreigners everywhere come looking for jade.
Looking at their watch, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening, so they found a small hotel to stay in, eat something, sleep well, recuperate, and start their business tomorrow.
Early the next morning, Charlotte had a simple breakfast and then drove off with Don. The two of them walked around Chu Huacheng, inquired a little according to Charlotte's meaning, and soon found Chu Huacheng's jade trading market.
There are dozens of jade sales stores of various types, hundreds of small jade stalls, which makes Charlotte very happy to see this scene...
Chu Hua is the largest jade producer in Singapore. These dozens of stores stock large quantities of red sapphire and many related common jades, such as moonstone and garnet. Of course, the most famous is Star Ruby, and the pigeon blood is one of the best.
Charlotte took Captain Yao Yongjun and picked one of the largest stores to enter. The store occupies an area of about 40 square meters. The owner is a fat middle-aged man with a bushy mustache, wearing a Singaporean-style plaid shirt and a delicate string of jade and beads around his wrists. His chubby face was filled with a shrewd smile.
Seeing Charlotte and his wife come in, the shopkeeper knew business was coming. Although the two young men look unfamiliar, judging by their dress and temperament, they should be jewelers from China.
However, the two of them look jerky. Maybe they're young people who are new to the mall. They plan to wipe their luck and get some good things back home to make a small profit. For such guests, Dai Chenglong is very welcome. Often such young people have a lot of money in their hands, and it is easy to get money full of ink from them.
So he ran over with a smile, bowed to the two with both hands, and said with a smile in broken Chinese: "Welcome, welcome, welcome to our store!"
Charlotte also smiled with her hands. It seems that the boss often contacts domestic jewelers and asks him to buy some high-quality jade, which should be no problem.
Dai Chenglong looked at the two young people with a smile and asked the handsome young man in Singlish: "Welcome to Chuhua." I'm Yao Yongjun. I have the best jade in Singapore. Don't know what you need?"
Henry Yao Yongjun smiled and translated it to Charlotte. Charlotte nodded and said to Yao Yongjun, "Tell him I need some good quality ruby." If there's a suitable blue jade, I'd like to see it too!"
Henry Yao Yongjun turned his head to the shopkeeper and translated Charlotte's words. The fat shopkeeper smiled and nodded: "Okay...... We are the best jade supplier in Chuhua. Everything is fine!"
After that, he smiled and asked, "Do you want to see the goods now?"
After Yao Yongjun finished translating, Charlotte smiled and nodded. It would be great if we could find the jade we were looking for here.
The two men followed the fat man into the inner room. The inner chamber is large. Two tattooed young men sit on the couch inside, watching TV and smoking. They saw the fat man come in and smiled and said a few words of Singlish. Then they got up and sat down Charlotte and Don.
And my brother is drilling in a small room. Well, it looks like we've got the goods.
The two of them made their way slowly towards Nepyidaw, and at this pace, it was about time to reach dinner.
After walking for two hours, it is only about 200 kilometers from Naypyidaw. On this rugged mountain road, Charlotte leaned back in her seat and was about to sleep. Suddenly, she felt that the car had suddenly stopped in a hurry. When she opened her eyes, she saw Yao Yongjun's nervous expression and said, "Colonel, it seems that our trouble is coming!"
Charlotte frowned. Sleep was suddenly interrupted and he was really upset. So, he looked at the jeep in the middle of the road and the five or six heavily armed bodyguards of the masked Goans, and sighed: "I thought I had lost them, but I didn't expect them to come to us and send them to death!"
Poor Zhao Tian, as a great martial arts master, can also be counted as his ability, but in front of the monkey who stole wine at the next level, he was beaten to the bone and had no power to fight back. I tried to call for help, but found Charlotte smiling like a ghost, as if she didn't want to help at all.
Zhao Tian knew that something was wrong, he had a bitter face and resisted twice. Seeing that the momentum was wrong, he hurriedly helplessly hugged his handsome face and shrank in the corner to let the angry Gao Anyi scratch it.
Zhao Tian suddenly looked at the vase with angry eyes and looked at Charlotte in surprise. "Such a big guy. Nanzi, where are you hiding?"
Charlotte waved the fingers of her right hand, and the silver ring was dazzlingly white.
"Uh......" Zhao Tian looked at the ring on Charlotte's finger and finally woke up. He was stunned and said, "You mean right here?"
"You finally get it! I said it's a Sumeru ring, it can hold a lot of things!" Charlotte shook her head helplessly.
After listening to Charlotte's words, Zhao Tian was not surprised. He's been with Charlotte for so long, but he's seen many strange things. He just grabbed Charlotte's finger and rolled the ring off. I looked at what I was holding and thought, "How is it possible, such a small thing, to fit such a big thing!"
"This ring contains a space that can hold a lot of things!" Charlotte said with a smile. \\\\\\
Zhao Tian smiled and put it on his finger and said, "Nanzi, how to use this thing, teach me quickly!"
Seeing Zhao Tian's impatient appearance, Charlotte smiled and shook her head gently: "This ring can't be used by others, only I can use it!"
Hearing Charlotte's words, Zhao Tian reluctantly took the ring off. Hand it back to Charlotte and commented bitterly, "It's a shame!"
Seeing Zhao Tian's reluctance, Charlotte smiled faintly and said, "You can't use this thing, but there is one thing you can use very well!"
"What is it?" Zhao Tian said with a smile on his face, expectantly.
Charlotte held out her hand, and a one-foot-tall Ding appeared in her palm. She laughed and said, "There's a good medicine here that doubles the speed at which you can concentrate." Break through to the top of the Giant Ridge in a short time!"
"What?" Zhao Tian was stunned. reacted with a burst of ecstasy, and hurriedly walked towards Xiaoding.
The hand just reached out. \ \ \ \ \ only to find that his eyes were empty, and Xiao Ding was snatched away by a pair of white jade-like hands next to him.
Seeing Charlotte's strange smile, Xiaohu and Zhao Tian both asked curiously what this meant. When Charlotte said this. The two also looked at each other, and they and others picked up such a treasure. It turned out to be left by other people's children!
However, the smiles of the two didn't care so much, anyway, they had already picked up a good baby, so they asked Charlotte to take out the Wenyu futon, go to the third floor to take medicine, and come over.
The three of them came to the activity room on the top floor, Xia Luo waved his hand to the ground, let two more crystal jade Yuwen futons, let Zhao Tian and Xiaohu sit on one of them, and then took Pei Yuan Dan, so that the two of them began to absorb the huge medicine.
Looking around, the spiritual power quietly rushed towards the two of them. Charlotte also sat down quietly in front of the two, closed her eyes, and observed their spiritual power through the knowledge of God.
This is the first time that two people have taken Pei Yuan Dan. In addition to the increasing role of Wenyu Futon, although Charlotte is confident that the two of them can absorb the drug smoothly, it is necessary to do some monitoring just in case.
Time passed minute by minute, and the surrounding aura was constantly instilled into the two of them under the effect of Wenyu futon. The spiritual power around the two of them fluctuated more and more, but it was still within the tolerance range of the two of them.
Charlotte quietly closed her eyes, constantly monitoring the movements of the two of them's mental powers. Gao Anyi obviously had a better ability to withstand it, so the fluctuation of her spiritual strength was much smaller than Zhao Tian's, so Charlotte quickly reassured her.
As for Zhao Tian, as time passed, the fluctuations in his spiritual power soon began to gradually flatten out, but after three or four hours, no obvious spiritual power was exposed.
"My brother-in-law is so lucky to have a friend like Mr. Xia!" Zhang Hua pretended to be authentic, and then quickly revealed her intentions. She said: "Speaking of auntie, I am really unqualified. Alas, I can't always trouble Mr. Xia. I will take care of Jing Xinrui in the future!"
Gao Anyi waited for a while, looked at the clearing, and confirmed that the tripod and book in his arms were missing. Only then did he excitedly rush over and hug Xia Luo, and jumped up happily: "Brother Xia Luo, you got the Sumeru ring, you got the Sumeru ring!"
Charlotte smiled and hugged Gao Anyi, finally waiting for her to calm down. Only then did she smile and say, "Okay, Xiaoxiao, we really gained a lot this time." It's time to go out, otherwise Xiang Hong will be in a hurry!"
Yu Junyan suppressed the excitement in his heart, his cheeks turned crimson with excitement, and he nodded frequently: "Okay...... Let's get out. Hehe... I can make a big profit this time. Even if that Xiang Hong doesn't give us a house, we will make a lot of money!"
Because of the practicality and rarity of the stored treasures, although they have no offensive and defensive performance, they are almost as valuable as the top treasures. At present, there are only a few big schools or ancient schools in the world, and there are some big demons.
In addition to the Sumeru ring, Pei Yuandan and Wannian Wenyu futon are also rare treasures. Although many sects in ancient times had the formula of Pei Yuan Dan, it was extremely difficult to find a common elixir, alchemy.
Li Yu's Imperial Thunder Sect, Dragon Tiger Mountain and other major sects sent people around all year round to find useful elixirs. It took decades to even barely collect a batch of Dan materials, which was only enough to refine more than a hundred at a time.
Usually after a batch of Dan comes out. In addition to leaving a little bit of energy, disciples who have passed enlightenment will also be trained by Dan to get them from the low level of concentration to the intermediate level of concentration as soon as possible, and then formally instruct them. This process is often referred to as the foundation of the various denominations.
But generally it is given to two or three new apprentices. It is only in a short period of time that the product of concentration can be achieved, and in short, it can be consumed in a few decades.
It's a pity that the simple-minded Zhao Tian can't feel the demeanor of a king. He had just understood the words of the Nine-Tails and Tian Hu, and then suddenly retreated far away, pointing at a sword, his eyes were full of surprise, and pointed at Yu Junyan and shouted, "Gao Anyi?...... We were a nice modern lad and totally clean and tidy. You should never want to confuse me!"
Hearing Zhao Tian's roar, the angry Gao Anyi almost spurted blood! She has been in this world for so long, but she has watched many episodes of TV series. Of course, she knew what Zhao Tian meant by Gao Anyi.
She is the Nine-Tailed Tianhu of the Demon Clan and the Imperial Family, but she is usually proud. When she heard this, she was really angry. Now she couldn't think about pretending to be a lady, so she rushed forward angrily and waved her claws at Zhao Tian, which was a fat beating.
Seeing the other party's statement, Charlotte chuckled lightly and smiled faintly: "Then what do you mean by asking Jing Xinrui!"
Zhang Hua thought that Xia Luo was polite, and hurriedly smiled and said to Jing Xinrui: "Jing Xinrui, don't always disturb Uncle Xia, you go home with your aunt, and your aunt will cook for you!"
Le Yongyi looked at the girl firmly and shook her head. "I'm following Charlotte's brother, I don't want to follow you!"
After listening to Jing Xinrui's answer, Zhang Hua hurriedly said: "How is this possible? After all, Mr. Xia is an outsider. I'm your aunt. Except for my grandparents, I am closest to you. I don't take care of you. Who takes care of you?...... Jing Xinrui is obedient!"
Le Yongyi shook his head. "I wish I had Charlotte's brother. Then he turned to Charlotte and said, "Brother Charlotte, let's go!"
Charlotte nodded slightly, and then walked out with Jing Xinrui. When Toshihiko saw it, she ignored the other party and followed behind. Leaving the girl alone, she waited for a while and was in a daze.
Seeing Charlotte and his wife begin to walk away, the girl finally woke up. Since Jing Xinrui was unwilling, she could only convince this Mr. Xia, and then she chased after Xia Luo and said, "Mr. Xia, Jing Xinrui is my nephew." Please give it to me as an aunt. You can't always let him bother you, don't you say!"
Charlotte smiled faintly and said, "Ms. Zhang, I follow Jing Xinrui's advice, as long as he is willing, I will always take care of him." Rest assured!"
Seeing that Charlotte refused to give in, the girl finally showed her face and said coldly: "Mr. Xia, I am his aunt after all, please respect my request!"
Charlotte smiled faintly = ignored the girl, and turned around and left with Jing Xinrui. Only the girl jumped into place in anger.
Charlotte stared at it, watching the bright red blood drip from the ring, without any illusions when the highest grade jewel recognized God. When I was disappointed, I found that the ring did not move, and a faint spiritual power fluctuated!
Charlotte was shocked at first, then delighted. She stared at the ring in her hand and waited for a moment to think, "What's going on?"
But in general. The ring doesn't really seem to be garbage, at least it's starting to react. And it's strange to drip blood, but not like a top-level treasure ...
At this time, Gao Anyi was also confused by this thing, and the blood would react, uh... What the hell is this!
The two men looked at each other and looked at the ring angrily, but the blood was completely absorbed by the ring. Who knew that the ring didn't respond and returned to its usual appearance?
The two men looked at each other. What is this, some tails that just came up so flat?
Charlotte nervously put the spiritual power into the ring, feeling that the spiritual power was completely absorbed and there was no response.
"Uh......" Charlotte began to be in a daze, the situation was really weird. Now she quickly got to know her God and wanted to see what was going on.
God knows what happened, but Charlotte was taken aback. There's a strange space in this ring. It's not big inside, but there's nothing in it. But there is room for it.
Charlotte was stunned, her mind dizzy, and she whispered, "Really? Sumerian rings, space rings, Sumeru rings that rarely appear in the spiritual world?"
Gao Anyi saw Charlotte's face full of shock, and pulled Charlotte's sleeve in surprise and said, "Brother Charlotte, Brother Charlotte!"
After screaming twice, Charlotte woke up, with an ecstatic smile on her face; Gao Anyi saw Charlotte's happy image and knew that Charlotte must have discovered something, so she frantically held Charlotte's hand and hurriedly asked, "Brother Charlotte, Brother Charlotte, what did you find?"
Charlotte excitedly put the ring on the index finger of her right hand, then replaced the attack ring with her left hand, and then smiled softly at Gao Anyi, and said, "Let you see!
After that, Charlotte stretched out her hand and waved at the Wenyu futon, but saw that the two ten-pound futons actually disappeared with Charlotte's wave.
Gao Anyi was dumbfounded. After a long time, he shook his hand and noted, "Brother Charlotte, this is... This Sumeru ring?"
