In-store.

The crowd looked at the crickets in the large porcelain jar.

The cricket with the head of the coffin belonged to the boss, and the other cricket with a large round head belonged to his friend.

The custom of fighting crickets has a long history, if you trace back, as early as in the Book of Poetry in the "National Style, Wind and July" there is a mention of "October crickets under my bed" verse, it can be seen that people in the Zhou Dynasty were already familiar with crickets.

And fighting crickets has become a kind of folk fighting, which is very ornamental, entertaining, and can also vary from person to person, and then become gambling.

I saw that the round-headed cricket was majestic and wantonly hissing, and the coffin-headed cricket in front of him was short and concise, not to be outdone, although it did not make any sound, it did not flinch in the slightest.

The boss held the dogtail in his hand and flicked the tail of the coffin head cricket, the cricket couldn't help it and rushed up, and the boss's friend also instigated his own cricket to rush up, and soon, the two crickets began to fight in a tragic battle.

I saw that the round-headed cricket had an impact with its powerful body, and soon gained the upper hand, and the coffin-headed cricket was invincible, so he turned around and ran.

The round-headed cricket took advantage of the victory in pursuit, and the coffin head ran to the edge of the ceramic jar, and after there was no way back, it immediately turned around, suddenly flapped its wings, and flew directly towards the round-headed cricket.

When it landed, it dodged the frontal attack of the round-headed cricket and bit directly on one of the round-headed crickets' feet.

The round-headed cricket struggled, but the coffin-headed cricket did not let go, kept dragging, kept dragging, kept biting, and kept pulling.

"Tear it up!"

Eventually, there was a dull crisp sound, and the round-headed cricket's feet were torn off.

While causing it great pain, the round-headed cricket was furious and turned around to kill the coffin-headed cricket.

And this time, the round-headed cricket did not give the coffin-headed cricket a chance to continue flying, and directly bit its wings, which were also bitten off!

Originally, this battle could have continued.

But when the wings of the cricket at the head of the coffin were bitten off, the boss with a pale face couldn't sit still, and he stood up like a knife: "Okay, okay! Don't play! I admit defeat! I admit defeat!"

In order to protect his beloved general, the boss directly chose to give up the game.

My friend naturally agreed, but he didn't forget the bet before the game started: "Brother, you lost, so according to the agreement, should you give me an antique?"

"Okay, okay, no problem. ”

The boss could only endure the pain, and randomly selected an antique that was not so valuable, handed it to his friend, and the friend left happily.

And the crowd dispersed.

Only Jingye was still standing at the door, looking at the boss looking at his crickets with pity.

"Cheer up. ”

The boss continued to move it with the dogtail, but it was not as brave as before, but it was crawling slowly, and it looked extremely difficult.

Thinking that his cricket was seriously injured, the boss couldn't help but feel sad, and sighed leisurely: "This is your first battle, I shouldn't be reckless, it's my blind self-confidence, which caused you to be like this, it's not good for me, I won't let you continue to participate in such battles in the future, it's too cruel." ”

"No, boss, you shouldn't be. ”

Jingye immediately walked over, completely disagreeing with what the boss had just said.

The boss was suddenly displeased in his heart, looked at the stranger in front of him, and said coldly: "What's the matter with you? This is not a cricket you raised, you don't understand anything, so don't be blind to command?"

"But presumably the boss also knows that crickets only appear in the summer, so its lifespan is between three months and five months. ”

"The lifespan of a cricket is only more than 100 days, and aggressiveness is also the nature of crickets, and as a result, you choose to confine it in this porcelain jar for life because of its broken wings, do you say you are cruel? Or are you cruel?"

The boss was unimpressed by Jing Ye's words: "Hehe, so what, at least it can avoid the fight in the outside world, and it can avoid all the risks brought by the fight, as long as it stays in the porcelain jar forever, then it will always be safe." ”

In that case, it can only hold a grudge and die with a kind of grievance and indignation. You said that this cricket is so panicked, I guess I don't even want to pay attention to your master. Sedum quipped.

And the boss doesn't want to mess with him anymore, since no one can convince anyone, let him get out.

After all, this is its own territory.

"If you don't want to buy antiques, please leave. "The boss started to chase people.

But Jing Ye ignored him, and just continued to talk about crickets: "If you are a cricket and you have your own dreams, but a person stops you and puts you in a porcelain jar, do you think you will be happy?"

"Of course I'm not happy, but unfortunately I'm not a cricket, in short, I'm selfish now, I just don't want to see my cricket hurt again!"

"Then do you really care about this cricket?"

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have given up on the game and sacrificed an antique in exchange for its life!"

"But while you care, you also carry your selfishness. If you are selfish about crickets, it can be seen that you don't care so much about it, and your selfishness is far greater than your care, because in your eyes, it is just a plaything after all. Sedum continued to indoctrinate the boss.

After hearing this, the boss was stunned.

He didn't listen to the words just now, but he listened to the current sentence.

The boss had an epiphany and patted his head: "Oh, you're right, I was wrong just now, I'm really sorry, it's because I didn't think about it thoroughly, and I didn't care about the feelings of crickets." ”

"Yes, as long as you can understand. ”

Jing Ye slowly sat on the bench next to him, and his eyes began to focus on the antiques under the glass case, "Boss, you see that I told you so much just now, it is impossible to speak in vain." ”

"Do you want to see the antiques? Whatever you want, whatever you want. "The boss started sending out invitations.

Jing Ye just looked at it casually, casually pointed to an antique and asked, "How much is this?"

"This antique is worth a lot of money, it is a blue and white double happiness bowl in the Ming Dynasty, and it is worth a lot of money. The owner explained.

"Oh, that's right, but I seem to have seen an antique similar to this one in Boss Gong's shop, do you say that you sell it cheaply, or Boss Gong's antique sells cheaply?"

Jing Ye asked, in fact, the price is secondary, just to test whether the owner of this store knows Gong Yanxi.

If it is an ordinary person who asks people, it must be directly at the door and ask, "Hello, do you know a middle-aged man named Gong Yanxi?"

But if this is really the case, it is easy to startle the snake, and even if the boss knows, he will deliberately say that he does not know with a strong sense of vigilance, so there is no way.

So Jingye gave up this step, and without asking, she directly settled the matter of the boss knowing Gong Yanxi.

Comparing the boss with Gong Yanxi, in this way, it will create a false impression that the boss knows Gong Yanxi.

But the illusion is not important, it doesn't matter if you recognize Gong Yanxi or not, the key is whether the sentence you asked can get what you want to hear from the boss's mouth.

"Boss Gong, I don't know which Boss Gong you're talking about?" the boss asked casually.

Jing Ye didn't say it explicitly, but he pretended to be very surprised: "What? You don't know Boss Gong? It's the Boss Gong who opened antiques and billiards, you don't even know him? You are too lonely and unheard, right?"

"Oh, this Boss Gong you are talking about, of course I know it, there are several people with the surname Gong here, and you don't name it, who knows which one you are talking about?" the boss explained.

Jing Ye nodded: "Well, it's good that you know, so come and tell me, is it cheaper in your shop, or is it cheaper in Boss Gong's house?"

"Well, you can't do this, you look like a layman, even if it's the same type of antique, it has to be judged according to its texture, according to its completeness, and its quality, etc., not that the two look alike, you can easily get the value distance between the two. ”

"Oh, so that's the case, since you and Boss Gong know each other, why don't you do me a favor, I took a fancy to an antique in his store, but he gave me too little discount, I was too expensive, so I left, and then I came to you to shop, and found that your antiques are not as good as his antiques." ”

"Hey, I found out that you are a prickly person, how can you speak with pricks? Many of my antiques are also good goods, right? Why do you say that my antiques are of poor quality? If it weren't for the fact that you persuaded me to be cricket, I would have gotten rid of you by now. "The boss was a little angry and panicked, so he could only spill out.

"Since you still remember the cricket incident, then let's do it, since you know Boss Gong, then you can help me persuade Boss Gong, how about giving me a good price? ”

"Oh?pay?"

"How about giving you one percent of the sale price?"

"Well, that's fine, it's a little less, but am I the kind of person who loves money? I owe you a favor to help you. ”

As he spoke, the boss picked up his mobile phone and began to dial Gong Yanxi's phone.

"Hey, hey, old Gong, tell you something......

"Don't talk about it, I'm busy, wait a minute. There was an impatient voice on the other side of the phone, accompanied by a girl's voice grinning.

The boss understood in seconds, so he hung up the phone with interest: "Ah, that's okay, you're busy." ”

After hanging up the phone, the boss explained to Jing Ye, and Jing Ye didn't care at all: "Well, since that's the case, then I won't bother you, I'll talk to him about the price for a while." ”

The boss nodded, and Jingye left.

And Jing Ye, on the other hand, immediately contacted Bai Qi and asked him to check the communication data of the antique city in the past three minutes.

Soon, it was found.

Through various screenings, it was finally confirmed that Gong Yanxi's phone number started with 155.

As for why he went to such great lengths for a Gong Yanxi's phone number, it was entirely because Gong Yanxi's phone was changed too frequently, so that there was no fixed contact information at all.

After all, for a person like him who often makes large transactions, changing his SIM card is a very basic thing, in order to avoid some people's surveillance.

So obviously, Gong Yanxi will not continue to use this calling card starting with 155.

But it doesn't matter, at least at the same time as confirming the phone just now, Gong Yanxi's specific location has also been confirmed.

At the same time, a person like Gong Yanxi, who often changes numbers, must not be able to remember the friends around him.

But the antique owner of the store just now has Gong Yanxi's latest phone number, which shows that the friendship between the two people is extraordinary, and it can even be said that this boss should know all the news about Gong Yanxi.

Even including who the girl next to Gong Yanxi was just now, presumably the antique boss knew everything about it.

So some of the communication records about the antique boss from now on have also been made by Bai Qi.

It's just that Bai Qi couldn't be busy, so he asked his subordinates to listen to the owner of this shop first.

When Gong Yanxi's specific location was confirmed, Jingye immediately went to the designated location, looked up, and found that there was a big hotel in front of him.

He didn't walk into the hotel.

Instead, I came to the floor across the street from the hotel.

Fifth floor.

The location is good.

You can see the windows of every room in the hotel.

Because it was daytime, and the sun was just right, it was just right for sunbathing, so almost half of the rooms didn't have curtains.

That's easy to do.

Sedum immediately took out the Warwick mobile phone that could shoot the stars, and then took pictures room by room.

Magnify.

Magnify.

Keep zooming in.

Sure enough, it's clear!

For example, in a room, there are two men.

For example, in a room, there is a man and two women.

Another example is that in a room, there are two women and one woman.

There were even three men and three women, and they didn't know what they were doing.

Of course, the most important thing is that

Jing Ye finally found a man and a woman in the many rooms.

"This must be it. ”

Jing Ye counted, this room is the fifth floor, judging by the number of windows, he is from the third window on the east side.

This means that he is the third room in the East Corridor.

thereupon

Jingye immediately went downstairs to the hotel, claiming that he was here to find a friend, so he went directly to the fifth floor and looked at the house number, which was 503.

Jing Ye continued to go downstairs, came to the counter, and asked the waiter at the counter: "Hello, who lives in 503?"

"Sorry, we do not provide privacy to others. ”

"Ah, I'm his friend, my friend's name is Gong Yanxi, he and his girlfriend are here, but I forgot his room number, and my phone can't get through, I'm sorry for you." ”

Jing Ye blinked, and the female teller was instantly electrified, and replied with a look: "Gong Yanxi is in 503." ”
