It is reasonable for this "largest" country to try to annex the surrounding small countries, but a country that is in the midst of extreme expansion has some strength, how can it suddenly collapse because of a single internal strife, and disappear so completely and cleanly. History seems to have fallen off a cliff here, and there is no more news.

This is also the question that some people have, why did the ancient kingdom of Yelang disappear overnight, and it disappeared so completely, this is obviously a bit contrary to common sense, is it possible that the people of Yelang country have been killed? Or is it that the nobles of Yeliang country are all dead, and no information has been handed down?

So far, it is not clear where the capital of Riyoro is, and there is a lot of controversy about the extent of the territory, which will inevitably continue until archaeological excavations provide reliable evidence.

Now, only the phrase "Yelang is arrogant" and a small number of archaeological discoveries have been left in the ancient country of Yeyang, and there is not much information left. Therefore, together with Loulan and the ancient kingdom of Dali, it is known as the three ancient kingdoms that have mysteriously disappeared.

Cheng Xinfu looked at the two things on the table and was a little confused, and couldn't help asking, "Xiao Meng, do you know what these two things are?"

Meng Zitao said: "It should be related to the ancient kingdom of Yelang." ”

Cheng Xinfu was surprised: "Is Yelang arrogant that Ling Lang?"

"Yes, it's Yoro. Meng Zitao said: "However, I don't understand what these two things really do. ”

Cheng Xinfu was very disappointed by this: "Hey, it seems that I want to find out the reason why my brother was killed through them, but it is unlikely." ”

Speaking of this, Cheng Xinfu suddenly had an idea: "Xiao Meng, I will give you these two things, you are well-informed, if there is any result in the future, just tell me." ”

Meng Zitao shook his head: "This is not good, let's not talk about this animal skin, I don't know its value, but this piece of jade is worth fifty or sixty thousand, I can't accept it." In this way, I spend money to buy it, and if there is a result in the future, I will contact you, how about it?"

Knowing that Yu Jue was so valuable, although Cheng Xinfu had a good face, he was reluctant to give away tens of thousands of yuan directly, but he had a good face, so he lowered the price and sold it to Meng Zitao.

The two sides excused themselves, and finally Meng Zitao spent 50,000 yuan to buy these two things, and then said goodbye and prepared to take a night plane to the capital.

Next, Meng Zitao was busy in the capital for two more days, selecting suitable collections in the Forbidden City, and the treatment on the Jiang family's side was also carried out in an orderly manner, and Jiang Weijuan's condition was getting better and better, and she might be able to sober up at any time.

It's just that Meng Zitao has been in the capital for a long time during this time, not to mention that the company's affairs have accumulated a lot, and he is also a little homesick, missing his father, and He Wanyi.

Speaking of which, his mother called him yesterday, saying that he was very annoyed by that little shrike, and he didn't know if he ate food mixed with spiritual fluid every day. So I wanted him to go back early and dealt with it.

On this day, after doing acupuncture for Jiang Weijuan, Meng Zitao put forward the idea of returning to Ling City.

Zhuang Wan was a little worried: "Doctor Meng, when will you come to give Xiaojuan acupuncture?"

Meng Zitao said: "Come once a week, in fact, now her condition has stabilized, it doesn't matter if you do it once every half a month, I am worried that her condition will recur, so it is only once a week." ”

Jiang Jingping asked, "Then when will she wake up?"

Meng Zitao said: "It depends on herself, to see if she is willing to wake up." So your family should be by her side and talk to her more. ”

The couple also knew that there was nothing too good to do now, and they could only hope that their daughter did not lose the motivation to survive.

The couple sent Meng Zitao out, Jiang Jingping said: "My eldest has always said that he wants to thank you in person, but unfortunately he has two days to come back from abroad, so I can only talk about it next time." ”

Jiang Jingping's son's name is Jiang Xingyun, he is a financial investment genius, he has hundreds of millions of personal assets at a young age, and this villa was also bought by Jiang Xingyun for his parents, to be honest, if it weren't for Jiang Xingyun, Jiang Weijuan would definitely not have such good nursing conditions now.

"Looking forward to meeting next time. ”

Meng Zitao said goodbye to Jiang Jingping and his wife, drove out of the community, and he was ready to go back to pack his luggage and take the evening plane back to Lingshi.

Halfway through, Meng Zitao received a call from Lu Baocheng, saying that he wanted to ask Meng Zitao to help identify agarwood, and Meng Zitao also agreed.

This time, Meng Zitao came to the capital, because there were a lot of things, but he and Lu Baocheng met once in Zhong Jinxian's villa and contacted their feelings.

Speaking of which, compared with Zhong Jinxian, Meng Zitao and Lu Baocheng don't have much contact, and they usually don't have much communication on the Internet, so far they only have a slightly better relationship than ordinary friends, if it weren't for Shu Ze and Zhong Jinxian in the middle, even if they know each other, it is estimated that they will be nodding friends, which may have something to do with the personalities of the two, or the natural aura.

To get back to the point, the place Lu Baocheng said is a small shop located not far from Panjiayuan, don't look at the shop is not big, but this is a famous place in the agarwood industry in the capital, and the owner specializes in selling all kinds of high-end spices.

In fact, antique shops do high-end business, often the most profitable, the most worry-free, because the high-end utensils bought, it is certainly impossible to be ordinary people, Chen Guzi rotten sesame will not be much, as long as you can ensure that the thing is genuine, it doesn't matter if it is expensive.

The reason for this is related to the psychology of being close to the rich, who are most afraid of spending money when buying things, but whether the money is worth it. People who can spend hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions to buy an antique, they don't care about a little more money or a little less money, they pay more attention to whether the antique they buy is worth the money.

Because, there are only two reasons for rich people to buy antiques, one is to collect and invest by themselves, because it is not a short-term business, it is normal not to sell for a few years or more than ten years or even for a lifetime. In such a long period of time, antiques will continue to appreciate, so as long as you buy the real thing, as long as the price is not too outrageous, it will not be a loss in a long time.

The second reason is that some people spend a lot of money to buy antiques, not for collection and investment, but to buy them as gifts. Just imagine being willing to spend such a large sum of money to buy an antique as a gift, it is naturally for important people, so that if you buy a fake, you will lose your face, and you will even be unlucky, just like Zhu Dachang at the beginning. Therefore, the most important thing is to buy the real thing.

The reason why he said so much is actually related to an idea that Meng Zitao had when he walked into the store, his business is getting bigger and bigger, and the antique shop is dispensable, but now his shortage of manpower is too serious, of course, the main reason is that he knows the root of the matter.

Therefore, Meng Zitao hit Hu Yuanliang's idea.

However, it was not in line with Mencius Tao's idea that the shop would be closed like that, so he was ready to upgrade to a high-end antique business. There are few people who buy high-end antiques, but the profit margin is large, and it also saves manpower, so that Hu Yuanliang can be liberated.

As for the management of the store, Meng Zitao felt that he could hand over all the things to Zhu Xinyue and let him be familiar with it from now on, so that after the transformation of the store, Zhu Xinyue would basically not have much of a problem. As for Zhu Xinyue's age, this is not a problem for Meng Zitao, the key is that he recognizes Zhu Xinyue's strength.

Getting back to the point, after Meng Zitao entered the store, he saw Lu Baocheng communicating with a middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper, and there were two boxes on the table, and I don't know what grade of agarwood was placed in the box.

Seeing Meng Zitao come in, the middle-aged man and Lu Yucheng got up to greet each other, and after introducing each other, Meng Zitao knew that the middle-aged man was indeed a shopkeeper, named Ye Tong, a well-known figure in the agarwood industry in the capital, and Meng Zitao had heard of it before.

After a few words of greeting, and getting to the point, Ye Tong opened the two boxes and said: "Mr. Meng, that's the case, I was entrusted by Mr. Lu to retrieve two pieces of Qi Nan incense, and the quality of these two pieces of Qi Nan incense is excellent, but someone reminded me that the seller's Qi Nan is problematic, so be careful." But I couldn't see what was wrong with these two pieces of Qi Nan, so I asked Mr. Meng to come over and take a look. ”

Meng Zitao smiled and nodded, since it is a store specializing in high-end spices, the authenticity of the goods must be the most important, and it is normal for Ye Tong to be so cautious.

Next, Meng Zitao made a careful appraisal of the two pieces of Qi Nan, and he also knew the authenticity.

"Shopkeeper Ye, I don't know what you think of Qi Nan's aura?"

Ye Tong was slightly stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "Teacher Meng is still amazing, and he suddenly hit the key point." ”

Lu Baocheng was surprised: "What, does Qi Nan really have an aura?"

Meng Zitao nodded and said: "Of course, in terms of aura, the powerful and gentle aura of the real Qi Nan instantly controls the cells of your whole body, up to Baihui, down to Yongquan, there is a wonderful feeling of emptiness in the body, and it truly reaches the mysterious realm of the unity of heaven and man, the integration of things and me, which is what Buddhism calls the three worlds of incense." ”

"And if it's an artificial Qi Nan, although the taste is extremely similar, it doesn't have this kind of aura and feeling. It's just that this feeling is more subtle, and only people who are experienced or have expertise in this direction can distinguish it. ”

Lu Baocheng said: "Although the aura is relatively subtle, experienced people can indeed feel it, but some people may not be sensitive to it and it is difficult to perceive. For example, although I don't have many problems with my eyesight, I am naturally poor in terms of intuition, and I didn't think about it before Mr. Meng reminded me, and I ended up with my eyes. ”
