Chapter 130, I can't help but want to go back!
One story, two versions.
In the version told by Jiang Lai, Jiang Xingzhou once clearly requested that fakes should only be used for display and private collection, and could not be sold as if they were real. Moreover, after learning that his father had sold the fake without permission, Jiang Xingzhou was furious and once called his father to take back the fake...... After being rejected by his father, he died of depression and finally tore up the check and swallowed it bit by bit.
In the version told by his father, he had explained to Jiang Xingzhou in advance that the fake needed to be handed over to others, but after Jiang Xingzhou finished making it, he temporarily repented and wanted to return the fake......
His father's legal reasoning is at fault, but he cannot be attributed to the murderer of Jiang Xingzhou. What's more, Jiang Xingzhou had promised to make a fake in person before, and handed it over to his father after the production was completed, and his father would deliver it to the guests...... At this time, he repented and asked his father to go to the guest to return the fake, which was tantamount to forcing his father to a dead end.
In that era, who were the people who could take hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy such a pen holder?
If my father came to the door and said that the pen holder I sold you was fake, I am afraid that the buyer would be able to tear my father to pieces and throw him into the river......
Lin Chuyi had heard the elders talk about the hardships of starting a business before, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he tied his head to the waistband of his pants and fought for his life. Some people spell it out, some people don't. Many more are half-dead and end up in the vast sea of people.
Marx said in "Capital": If there is a profit of 10 percent, capital is guaranteed to be used everywhere. With 20 percent of the profits, capital can be activated. With a 50 percent profit, capital will take risks. For the sake of 100 percent profit, capital dares to trample on all human laws. With a profit of 300 percent, capital dares to commit any crime, even to the risk of hanging the head.
In the early days of all industry developments, the chaos was shocking. For example, in the early Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles, nothing happened to murder, arson, kidnapping, and extortion? The antique industry was so profitable that the profits were more than 300 times? The eyes were stimulated by numbers, people's hearts were blinded by money, and it was natural for some people to do some crazy things.
However, after listening to the story told by his father, Lin Chuyi was confused.
Which is true?
Jiang Lai's personality, as well as the emotional reaction at the time, didn't look like he was lying. What about his own father? What he said was also reasonable, and people couldn't find any flaws to refute it at all......
What's more, he's his own father.
Children have an innate sense of trust in their parents. Who wants to believe that their father and mother are a bad couple?
Lin Yu put the fragmented porcelain into the box, looked at Lin Chuyi and said, "Don't be anxious, don't worry. Just like I taught you before, if you encounter someone you don't understand or something you don't understand, put it aside for a while and spend more time taking a good look. The more you watch, the truth will come out. ”
"Thank you Dad. Lin Chuyi said gratefully.
"Silly child, what do you want me to do? Parents are most afraid that their children will say "thank you" to themselves, and if they talk too much, it proves that the relationship will become more and more estranged. Lin Qiu, that muddy boy, although he is not liked by others in many aspects, never says kind words to his parents. Lin Yu patted Lin Chuyi's shoulder and said, "You give this box to Jiang Lai." It's something I've always wanted to do. In any case, my heart is still full of guilt for the Jiang family. ”
"Dad......"
"Alright, alright. I know you're not feeling good either. Lin Yu comforted his daughter like a kind father, and said loudly: "I said before, you can like anyone, but that person can't be Jiang Lai. Because I think a man has too many secrets and too much hatred in his heart, and such a man is scheming and not honest enough, and it is difficult to bring you happiness. ”
"I admit that Jiang Lai's craftsmanship is very good, but most of the craftsmen's temperament is very stubborn and arrogant, which is a good quality that allows them to strive for excellence on the road of art, but it is not suitable to be a lover who accompanies them day and night. Marriage is a lifelong firewood, rice, oil and salt, and a business that tolerates each other from morning to night. If one party keeps accommodating the other, it is difficult for such a marriage to last. ”
"Of course, I'm telling you this now, and it's hard for you to listen. If you really like someone, how can the person next to you say a few words and then dislike it? I don't say that you should immediately cut off any relationship with Jiang Lai, you can still try and see if that man is the person you want to marry......
"If you try it and still feel that person is your lifelong partner, Dad will bless you too. Your mother is bent on bringing you and Song Lang together, after all, Song Lang is the child we grew up with...... Don't worry, I'm going to convince your mother to make her happy to accept you. ”
"Thank you Dad. ”
"Look, I'm saying thank you to my dad again. Lin Yu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "You didn't come back last night, Dad just cares about you and wants to ask you if there is anything Dad can help with." ”
"It's okay Dad, I'll take care of it. ”
"That's good. You've always been a smart kid and I'm sure you'll be able to handle these things. Lin Yu smiled and said, "Let's go." Gong Jin is still waiting downstairs, and you can go down to accompany your friends. I'm going to make you something to eat. ”
"Dad worked hard. Lin Chuyi said with a smile.
"What is the hard work? At my age, what could be happier than making food for my wife and children?"
Lin Chuyi accompanied his father downstairs and introduced: "The preparations for the second auction of the blue and white vase of "Plum Wife and Crane" have been prepared. "Plum Wife and Crane" is the core lot, which is used to drive the value and sales of the other five lots. Those VIP guests who did not get the blue and white vase of "Plum Wife and Crane", or those who could not afford to bid for it, will compete for several other lots, which will naturally drive the price of blue and white porcelain in the whole market. ”
Lin Yu nodded and said, "You can decide these things." Now that I've handed over the company to you, I'm sure you'll be able to handle it. ”
"I'll try. ”
Lin Yu took the lead and walked down the stairs, greeted Gong Jin in the living room with a smile, and said, "Gong Jin, I haven't been a guest at my house for a long time." You're just too outward. It's okay to come to the house and sit down. You're a friend of your first year of junior high school, so you think of it as your home. ”
Gong Jin got up and thanked him and said, "Thank you, uncle." ”
"No thanks. You young people have a good chat, and my uncle will show you a good hand in cooking tonight. ”
Lin Yu smiled and waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the kitchen.
Li Lin also stood up and said, "You young people chat, I'll go and give your dad a hand." Whatever you want to eat and drink, let Lin Qiu prepare it for you. ”
"Thank you, Auntie. Gong Jin thanked him again.
"Your uncle just said that he wants to make this place his home. Li Lin looked at Gong Jin with a smile and said pointedly.
He instructed Lin Qiu again and said, "Lin Qiu, take care of Gong Jin." ”
"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely entertain the most honored guest in my heart. ”
"Mouthful. Li Lin shook her head and said.
When Li Lin also left, Gong Jin's eyes looked at Lin Chuyi. Lin Chuyi understood what his friend meant, and whispered: "Don't worry, I'm fine." ”
Only then did Gong Jin put his mind at ease and said, "It's okay." ”
Lin Qiu sat opposite and looked at Lin Chuyi and asked, "Sister, where did you and Sister Gong go last night?"
"Sioux City. Lin Chuyi replied.
"Are you going to Sioux City? will you take me next time?"
"Not good. ”
Gong Jin and Lin Chuyi replied at the same time.
“……”
Lin Chuyi saw Lin Qiu's aggrieved look and said, "We girls travel together, what are you going to do with you?"
"I can protect you. Lin Qiu said.
Lin Chuyi scoffed and said, "If you really encounter danger, I'm afraid we have to protect you." ”
"Sister, you underestimate people. Lin Qiu said angrily: "You don't know my true strength. ”
"Okay, okay, I'll take you next time. Lin Chuyi said comfortingly.
"Thank you, sister. Lin Qiu looked at Gong Jin and asked, "Sister Gong, do you still want to drink something?"
"Don't drink it. ”
"Do you want to eat any fruit?"
"Don't eat. ”
"Do you want to read my comics? My latest work based on the master is even more exciting. ”
"Don't look. ”
“……”
Lin Chuyi knew Gong Jin's character, and the things he didn't like were reluctant for anyone. He looked at Lin Qiu helplessly and said, "Bring it to me and take a look." ”
"Okay. Lin Qiu immediately jumped up and said, "Sister, wait a minute, I'll go and get my work for you." ”

After Jiang Lai took a bath, he leaned on the head of the bed and read a few pages of the book, sleepiness hit, and then he closed the pages of the book and prepared to turn off the light and sleep.
He didn't sleep all night last night!
Just then, the cell phone on the bedside table rang.
He swiped his phone and found that it was a message from Lin Chuyi: Are you okay?
Jiang Lai was silent for a moment and replied: Don't send me a message.
Lin Chuyi's second message was quickly transmitted, asking: Why?
Jiang Lai replied: I can't help but want to go back.
