Chapter 805: Trouble Again
Luo didn't say much about this, got up and walked into the back room, and not long after he came back with a box. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Mr. Meng, this is what you want, can you take a look?" Luo indifferently opened the box and pushed it in front of Meng Zitao.
Meng Zitao looked down and saw that the box was indeed a negative statue, and the material used was the same as the several statues of the son of the dragon he had obtained earlier.
Meng Zitao took it in his hand and checked it, there was no problem, it was exactly what he was looking for. It's just that although he found something, what Luo said indifferently just now still made him very curious.
"Teacher Luo, I don't know if you can explain what you mean by the accident just now?"
Luo indifferently hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Let's put it this way, in fact, the origin of this thing is also a little disgraceful, it was snatched from others by my ancestors, there were two other things at the beginning, what it is, I don't know very well, originally, my ancestors hoped that this thing could come in handy, but I didn't expect it to become dry bones in just one day." ”
"Dry bones?" both Meng Zitao and Shu Ze were surprised.
"Yes, it's dry bones, all the flesh and blood are gone, it's terrifying. Luo said indifferently: "To be honest, I don't believe this, but my grandfather told me that he witnessed it when he was a child, and it was very terrifying." ”
Hearing this, Meng Zitao felt more and more that the meaning of the word "ascension" was not to become an immortal, but to ascend to heaven. Of course, there are likely to be other key points, such as Luo Danran's ancestors only got three things, but in fact there were at least nine of them, which may have caused the problem because of the lack of items.
However, there is another question, how did Luo Danran's ancestors make the statue work, is there a special mantra or ritual?
So, Meng Zitao asked the question in his heart: "Teacher Luo, take the liberty of asking, you just said that there are three similar things, where did the remaining two go?"
Luo said indifferently: "I really don't know about this, when my father passed it on to me, he just asked me to keep it well, and didn't say anything else." To be honest, I really don't think there's anything special about this thing, it's just because my ancestors have passed it down, so I've always kept it. ”
This is also normal, if there is anything special about this statue, he will not give things to Meng Zitao so happily.
Meng Zitao saw that he couldn't find any news from Luo Danran, and he was slightly disappointed in his heart, but now that he counted this one, he already had seven statues in his hand, and he felt that with his luck, he would find the remaining two statues sooner or later and solve this mystery, of course, even if he couldn't find it, he could see it.
"Master Luo, the thing is what I want, can you please make a price?" Meng Zitao asked.
Luo waved his hand indifferently: "No need, just give me the reward for solving the trouble." ”
Meng Zitao also shook his head and said: "No, the thing is your ancestor, so I can't take it for nothing." ”
Seeing Meng Zitao's resolute attitude, Luo said indifferently: "That's okay, you ...... it."
Originally, he wanted to say that he would give it casually, but when he thought of being embarrassed by saying this, he changed his words and said, "You give 10,000." ”
The value of the statue is really incalculable, so Meng Zitao didn't say much, he paid the money directly, and waited for him to solve the secrets in the statue.
After paying, Meng Zitao looked at the situation in the store, and saw that there were some jade works on the Bogu shelf and the glass counter, which looked quite exquisite, and should be Luo Danran's work.
"Teacher Luo, can I take a look at your work?" asked Meng Zitao.
Luo smiled indifferently and said: "Of course there is no problem, you can just look at it, but the materials of these jade artifacts are not very good, and it may be difficult to enter the eyes of the two of them." ”
"Material is one thing, carver is key. ”
Meng Zitao and Shu Ze got up and went to see several works, and they admired Luo Danran's carving very much.
After admiring for a while, the two returned to their seats, and Meng Zitao smiled and said, "Teacher Luo, I don't know what your plans are in the future." ”
Luo didn't answer directly, but asked, "I don't know what you think?"
Meng Zitao said: "May I ask Mr. Luo, do you still have the idea of returning to the mainland?"
Luo sighed indifferently: "To be honest, I originally moved to Xiangjiang because I heard the benefits of moving to Xiangjiang, and I had the ability, so I came over." At first, it was good because of the freshness, but after a long time, it became inconvenient, such as discrimination, the biggest problem, as soon as many people in the Hong Kong society say that you are a new immigrant, or the language is different from the locals, especially the employer, they will treat this kind of person differently. ”
"I've suffered a lot over the years, and if I were a local, it wouldn't have been the same thing. In fact, I do regret my decision now, but even if I want to return to my original household registration, I don't have any policy support!"
Meng Zitao looked at Shu Ze, and Shu Ze smiled: "This is not too big a problem, but are you sure you want to give up the hard-won identity of Xiangjiang?"
Luo asked indifferently with some surprise: "Mr. Shu, can I really return to my hometown?"
Shu Ze nodded and said, "As long as you are innocent, it is not a big problem." ”
Luo Ran hurriedly said: "I have never been a traitor, there must be no problem." ”
Meng Zitao took over and said: "Teacher Luo, I mean I want to invite you to work in the jewelry company I am about to set up, responsible for jade carving, and if you have the heart, you can help bring some apprentices, so your current status actually doesn't have much impact." ”
Luo shook his head indifferently: "I'm older now, and the idea of returning to my roots is getting stronger and stronger, so if it's possible, I still want to return to my hometown." ”
Meng Zitao asked, "What about work?"
"There is basically no problem with the work, I believe that Mr. Meng should not treat me badly. Luo said indifferently in a joking tone.
Meng Zitao said happily: "Okay, as for the matter of returning to your hometown, I hope you can think about it again and don't regret it in the future." ”
Luo said categorically: "Don't think about it, I've already decided, to be honest, I don't want to stay here anymore,"
Shu Ze smiled: "Then I'll help you ask what kind of procedures are needed, someone will come to contact you in the last day or two." As for those people before, you don't have to worry, I'll let my friends warn them. ”
"Thank you, Mr. Shu. Luo said happily indifferently.
Meng Zitao said with a smile: "I'll wait for you to return to the mainland, the place of work is in Shanghai, it should be no problem, right?"
"I've been in Shanghai for two or three years, no problem. Luo replied indifferently.
"That's okay, the specific treatment, let's talk about it then?"
"It's good ......"
After sitting here for a while, considering that he still had a lot of things to deal with, the two of them got up and said goodbye.
The group walked towards the parking lot, and after walking for a while, they saw some more people in front of them, and it looked as if someone was arguing.
Shu Ze couldn't help laughing: "What's going on today, why do you always encounter this situation." ”
Meng Zitao looked over there, it was the door of a pawnshop, and he smiled: "Leave these people alone, let's go and meet Wanyi and them early." ”
"Hmm. ”
Shu Ze nodded, and the group continued to move forward, but also passed by the place where they quarreled.
"This is my family's ancestral jade, which was handed down from the Han Dynasty, since you are a pawnshop, how can such a treasure not be accepted?" said excitedly at the door of the pawnshop, a middle-aged man holding a box in his hand.
"Sir, we really can't mortgage it here, to be honest, your item is not worth the price you said, I suggest you take a look elsewhere. The security guard advised.
"What? You say my jade is not worth much? Do you know how much this jade can be worth? Tens of millions! No, this jade is worth at least tens of millions!" The middle-aged man was very emotional, dancing with his hands, and the people around him were afraid that he would accidentally throw the box in his hand.
The security guard was a little helpless, so he could only stay away from him, so as not to touch the box, otherwise he would not be able to speak clearly, but he still kept his job and blocked the middle-aged man, lest he break into the store, and continued to persuade the middle-aged man to leave quickly.
"Hehe, I heard the appraiser say just now, your thing is a worthless stone at all, you better go back and forth from there, don't be embarrassed at this time. At this time, a person came out of the pawnshop and sneered at the middle-aged man.
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm just a real jade, how can it be a worthless stone? Don't you spew blood!" The man looked even more excited, his hands trembled slightly with anger, and the security guard was a little frightened, for fear that he would accidentally drop the box in his hand.
The man just now was still unrelenting, "Zhong Tianchang, you don't have to make trouble, your thing is purple, or is it all purple, if it is the legendary purple jade, how much is it worth? I don't believe you take it out to show you, is this thing a real jade? At most, it's just a worthless purple chalcedony, or which corner you took it out of." ”
"I'll warn you again, don't talk nonsense!" Zhong Tianchang took the things out of the box and raised them in his hand: "Let's see, how beautiful this jade is, this restrained temperament, rich pulp, how can it be worthless purple chalcedony?"
Meng Zitao didn't want to join in the fun, but when he saw the thing in the man's hand, he was quite surprised.
"Then you can go to another pawnshop and ask them and see what they say. The man said with a sneering expression.
"Just ask, just ask, I don't believe it, everyone will say that there is something wrong with my jade. Zhong Tianchang said so, but in fact, he lacked confidence, and he looked like he was weak-hearted.
The other party also saw his weakness, and couldn't help laughing, and then passed away.
When the security guard heard Zhong Tianchang's words, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he didn't care about anything else, as long as Zhong Tianchang didn't have an accident at the door.
At this time, Meng Zitao stepped forward and carefully looked at the things in Zhong Tianchang's hand.
Zhong Tianchang was already in a very bad mood, and his heart was full of anger, but Meng Zitao's action of coming up immediately ignited the anger in his heart, and he asked loudly: "What do you want to do?!"
Meng Zitao was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "I'm just a little curious about what you have in your hand, can you show me?"
Zhong Tianchang raised his eyes and glanced at him, Meng Zitao looked more amiable, which would give people an inexplicable good impression, but Zhong Tianchang still looked like a stranger, he stared at Meng Zitao for a long time, but he didn't agree in the end.
Meng Zitao smiled and said, "Otherwise, it's good, you take it, I can just look at it, how about it?"
Zhong Tianchang glanced at Meng Zitao hesitantly, and finally agreed, he held the thing in his hand tightly with one hand, as if he was afraid that Meng Zitao would snatch it.
Meng Zitao looked a little speechless in his heart, could he have the word "robbery" written on his face, as for guarding himself like this? Besides, if he really wanted to rob, Zhong Tianchang would not have a chance to fight back at all.
In order to reassure Zhong Tianchang, Meng Zitao looked down at the things in Zhong Tianchang's hand with his hands behind his back. This is a palm-sized, shaped like a hand-me-down jade artifact, with a smooth and flawless surface and purple throughout, but if you look closely, there are still some black spots, but it does not affect its beauty.
Other than that, this jade artifact has no other characteristics, at least in the current environment.
However, for Meng Zitao, there was some surprise in his heart, and there was a hint of excitement in the surprise, which was no different from the jade watermelon he saw yesterday, he really didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to meet the things recorded in the inheritance notes of the "Ghost Hand King", which made him quite excited.
After a while, Meng Zitao raised his head again, but his face was still unshocked, and said, "I take the liberty of asking, this thing is from Mr. Zhong's family?"
Zhong Tianchang put the things back in the box and said impatiently, "I have already said it just now, this is my ancestral treasure, if it weren't for some changes in my family, it would be impossible for you to see it!"
Meng Zitao smiled and said: "Hehe, this thing is still good, listening to Mr. Zhong's meaning, it seems that he wants to get rid of this thing, I wonder if you have any idea of transferring?"
Zhong Tianchang saw Meng Zitao say this, his face showed some smugness, "You still have some vision, this jade of mine is something from the Han Dynasty, it has a history of one or two thousand years, but it is a priceless treasure." ”
Meng Zitao smiled: "If Mr. Zhong treats it as a priceless treasure, then I will not be able to make a bid." ”
Zhong Tianchang said angrily: "Say, how much money can you pay?"
Meng Zitao stretched out two fingers: "This number, 200,000." ”
Zhong Tianchang glared at Meng Zitao fiercely, "You have a problem with your brain, you want to buy my treasure for 200,000 yuan, even if you take 200,000 dollars, don't even think about buying it!"
Meng Zitao understood that this person wanted to sit on the ground and raise the price, so he asked, "Mr. Zhong, then please make a price." ”
Zhong Tianchang hesitated for a moment and said, "Anyway, at least 10 million! Don't be too expensive, if I don't need money urgently, I will sell it for at least 20 or 30 million!"
