"The Value of Art" ll novella

When I closed the sliding door of the storefront, the three of them looked at me in amazement.

One of them said to me, "Boss Qiao, what are you doing here?"

I grabbed the bench next to me and didn't speak.

One of the three people took two steps back and slowly fell to the ground, and the remaining two began to lose their footing at this time.

The two glanced at the people on the ground, and one began to shout.

The other ran towards the back room behind the storefront.

I took a few steps up to a bench and smashed the screaming unconscious.

He glanced at the purple bruise on his head, touched his nose, and then got up and walked to the back room.

He walked quickly to the room, and the one who ran into the room fell to the ground.

Dragged all three to a small room at the back of the store.

I rummaged through their clothes and found three phones and three wallets.

I piled my phone wallets together and turned off all three phones.

Three thick hemp ropes, with hands and feet tied them together.

The three benches were backed against each other in a triangle and tied them all up.

They were tied to a stool together, and three more towels were found to plug all three of them's mouths.

Waiting for them to wake up, I waited for almost seven or eight hours.

During this period, I was also more panicked, and I touched my nose once every half an hour.

Especially the one who was hit in the head, I took out the purple potion and dealt with it for him briefly.

The three of them woke up one after another, but it was difficult to see each other because of the angle.

The three of them began to stagger, letting out small shouts.

I pulled the towel from one of them and said, "I'll say whatever I say, or don't blame me for doing anything." ”

The one who could speak was stunned for a moment, and then he shouted and threw me over with a big mouth.

"The soundproofing here is very good, a slap in the face. You see if the neighbors and the police came first, or if the face was deformed first. I said.

"The road... Boss Lu, what are you doing here? . . We have no grudge against you, and we don't have any money. You let us go, we won't call the police when we go out... The one who could speak said in a slurching voice.

I shook my head and slapped me again and said, "I will answer whatever I ask, and I am not allowed to say anything superfluous." After asking, I will let you go, you can rest assured. ”

"You... Does talking count?" said the one who could speak, crying.

I slapped it again, sighed and said, "Why is there a program called Jianbao on Beijing TV, and why is this program selling the pottery I sell to you?"

The one who could talk was crying all the time, and the one next to him was shaking his head hesitantly.

I removed the towel from his mouth.

"You sold it to us, and of course we have the right to sell it again. If you say it because the price above is unreasonable and what you sold to us in the first place, you will be fine, but it is a crime for you to arrest us like this. The towel was taken off and immediately said.

I smiled and said, "I haven't finished talking yet, what are you anxious about? I think you've seen that show." It has nothing to do with me who you're buying and selling, but why does a man who calls himself Jock say he made it? I'm going to ask this Jock, what's going on with this guy pretending to be me?"

The one who was supposed to be upright stopped talking.

The one who cried said in a crying voice: "These are all our boss's ideas, and we don't know... We're only responsible for collecting the baby everywhere, and you're our boss... Really liked it too. ”

I thought and said, "You're saying you don't know?"

All three of them almost nodded their heads.

I took out the business card in my pocket and said, "I went to the TV station to check the producer of the show, and why did they give me the producer's phone number as yours." ”

The three remained silent the next moment.

"You now have a chance to tell me what all this is all about. Either you wait here to die, I won't give you anything to eat. I said.

The three of them still didn't say a word at this time.

I said, "What? Your boss is amazing, so powerful that it's more important than life?"

The third of the three shook his head at this point.

I also untied the white cloth from his mouth.

He coughed twice and said, "We don't know much about this matter, we are only responsible for buying the collection." We can give you the address of the owner, but you have to leave us alone. And you can't say we told you that, can we?"

I said, "That's fine, but you have to make sure you're telling the truth." ”

He usually only goes to the company once a month, and his family's first villa in Ouyue Jingyuan Area A is his. We are responsible for collecting antiques, and the operation is all his. We don't make money either, and he is a thousandfold profit when he turns it over by a way. One of the three said.

"And who else is in his family?" I said.

"My wife, nanny and children, by the way, he will go to Shangzhuang Reservoir every month to fish. Another of the three said.

"When?" I said.

"Boss Qiao, you're trying to make trouble with him, right? We don't like our boss either, you can rest assured of this. We can tell you when he tells us to go, but when to go is really not fixed. ”

"There's nothing to look for or bother, I just want to know the truth. Catch you here for this too, your boss is next. I said.

"We can really help you, his tricks and connections are very deep, and we employees really don't know about it. One of the three said.

I turned around and opened their wallets, took out all my ID cards and bank cards, and said, "I will keep these things first, and I am not afraid that you will reapply or even call the police." Since you all say that the doorway inside is very big, then your boss probably doesn't want to expose it. You tell me when your boss is going to go fishing, and when you're going to get these things back. ”

I walked over and untied the first person's rope.

He stood up weakly and said, "Boss Qiao, don't worry." We will not betray you, but you cannot betray us either. ”

I said, "Go out one by one, you go out with your clothes first." ”

He walked slowly to the side, put on his clothes, grabbed his wallet and phone, and walked out.

I watched him pull open the storefront and walk out, and watched him close the store again.

I unraveled the second one, and concocted the third one in the same way.

Seeing them all leave the storefront, I opened the door.

Seeing the three of them standing in the distance, all three of them looked at me and their bodies were trembling.

I made a phone call, and all three of us almost nodded their heads.

The next day I called my glasses to explain the situation, and he told me not to be so impulsive.

After making the call, I smashed my phone angrily.

I had no choice but to buy a Nokia smartphone.

Four days later, three people showed up in front of my storefront.

Two walked in with one pusher, and the other two stood in the doorway waiting.

The one who came in said nervously: "The boss told us today that he would go fishing tomorrow." ”

"Rain or shine?" I said.

"If it rains, it won't go, and the rest of the sun will go no matter how big it is. This is what our boss looks like. The man took out the phone, and a fat man appeared on the screen the size of a small palm.

I looked at my phone and silently remembered it.

"Then he had a Tiger Runner, and the fishing tools were in the back compartment. The car is a Beijing A and all seven, and people will not be too far away from the car. The one said.

I took out the bank cards and ID cards of the three people in the small cabinet.

The one put it away and said, "It's good that Boss Qiao is angry when he asks about things, don't kill anyone." And it's better to wear a mask, it's better to hide your identity. ”

I nodded my head and said, "It's my own measure." ”
