"The hostess has always been so welcoming, so you don't have to feel embarrassed. www.biquge.info"Li Zhilin looked at me dumbfounded, staring at the back of the proprietress and explained to me.

"Oh." I nodded, and when the proprietress gave us something to eat, Li Zhilin was already chatting with Jiang Yuan. Looking at the not awkward atmosphere between them, I can't help but wonder what Jiang Yuan said before, did Jiang Yuan really have such a fierce conflict with Li Zhilin as he said?

"Do you have something to ask me?" When I was in a daze, I was asked by Li Zhilin like this, which made me a little panicked.

For a moment, I didn't know what to say, so I had to sneak a glance at Jiang Yuan out of the corner of my eye: "That, that I want to ask, what happened at the auction?" "I don't know why I don't want the two people in front of me to know what I'm talking about, I always feel that it will make the current atmosphere embarrassing, and the focus of today is on the auction, I didn't get the feng shui ornaments, and Mi Zhen's boyfriend was injured, I don't know if she will lose her temper when she sees Mi Zhen next.

Li Zhilin was silent for a while, and finally gave up playing Tai Chi with me under my constant questioning: "Ah, that auction itself is a trap, if it weren't for Zixuan coming, the two of us might have a different ending." After Li Zhilin finished speaking, he puffed out his cheeks with some pity, looking like an angry pufferfish.

"What do you mean?" I asked cautiously, thinking he was still complaining that we didn't see the last hilarious scene.

Li Zhilin knocked me on the head with chopsticks: "I mean, my life is hard to protect, and I am stupid to death." ”

I rubbed the place where I was knocked and said a little angrily: "How do I know, you didn't say anything just now, and in the end you still looked indifferent, I really thought that you were a pity that you didn't see the monkey show where everyone competed for the fake at the end." ”

Li Zhilin looked at me, and finally kept rubbing his temples as if he was troubled by something: "I finally understand why Zixuan was so angry that Mi Zhen couldn't speak, you are two stupid people who don't know anything." "When Li Zhilin scolded me, the proprietress brought us soup from the house." Serve it yourself, the chef is about to start making breakfast, so I have to prepare the ingredients, so I won't take special care of you. You sit and chat here, don't leave yet, and I'll have breakfast at Grandma's place in a while. You're welcome, eat a little more to grow stronger. The proprietress said this, and hurried back to the back kitchen.

"Do you come here often?" Seeing their familiar attitude with the proprietress, I asked with some curiosity.

Zhilin was helping me scoop the soup: "Sort of, I used to come often." ”

I took the soup handed over by Li Zhilin and drank it slowly: "I just think your relationship is really good enough to be envied, and you can let others call you Grandma, which really has to be very close." ”

I didn't expect that as soon as I said such a thing, the whole atmosphere froze, and I could feel the air freeze. I found that Jiang Yuan's gaze was locked on me, cold and terrifying, and it felt like being targeted by a snake.

"She kept us calling her Grandma." Li Zhilin found that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly played a round in the middle

"It's because you think we're the same age as his kids, right?" I still wanted to know the answer to the question, but I could feel Jiang Yuan's gaze getting colder and colder.

Li Zhilin kicked me under the table, but on the surface he still looked kind: "Because the boss lady likes us very much, it's not strange to recognize a godson or something." ”

"You've talked a lot today." Jiang Yuan was a little angry and pushed his elbow against Zhilin, "It's time to eat." "But I know that Jiang Yuan said that sentence to me, because when he spoke, that terrible look kept falling on my face, the eyes were very scary, and I could feel cold sweat slowly flowing down my back.

Li Zhilin pouted at the top of Jiang Yuan's lowered head, and then led the topic back to the auction: "I haven't finished talking about the feng shui ornament just now." In fact, that boss really has that feng shui ornament in his hand. ”

"But why did he auction off the fake?" I remembered what Li Zhilin told me at the beginning of the meeting.

Li Zhilin was the same as me: "I can only say that the big boss who slipped through the net is more greedy." Also, the Wood Consultation will notice it because the 'Fortune Treasure' is actually a cultural relic that was lost 10 years ago. ”

"Relics?!" My voice was a little loud, and after being glared at by Zhilin, I immediately covered my mouth and stuck out my tongue embarrassedly: "Is what you said true?" ”

"There's no need to lie to you, right? Haven't you also seen how many people at the scene today are eyeing it? However, I believe that the vast majority of people do not know that it is a fake. ”

"Probably not that exaggerated, right? Aren't there a lot of your peers at the auction? If you can't even tell the truth from the fake, your colleagues are too inferior, right? Identification should be the basic skill of your profession, right? And Mu Zixuan, didn't he still learn this knowledge in college? I believe that he should also be here for this 'fortune and treasure', a person with professional knowledge should be very sensitive to truth and falsehood, right? "To be honest, I don't believe anyone would do anything that immoral.

"It's not strange to look at this kind of thing, everyone knows about this legendary treasure, but there may not be a few people who have seen it with their own eyes. Mu Zixuan has only seen this rare treasure in the photo. However, there are still slight differences between the photos and the real thing. Photos can fool the vast majority of people, even experts in this area. But it must not be deceived by the eyes of those who have actually seen and felt it. It just so happens that I have such eyes. ”

"How do you see the real thing?" As soon as the words fell, I suddenly remembered Li Zhilin's previous identity, Jiang Yuan also said, he was a very famous appraisal expert before, so it is not very difficult to see this feng shui ornament, right? But didn't you say that this treasure was lost? Where did he see him? I went to see Li Zhilin with questions, but Li Zhilin didn't ignore me. He stared at the bowl in front of him, as if thinking about something.

It was also at this time that I heard Jiang Yuan laugh at me: "Stupid, don't you know that most of the reasons why many cultural relics are thrown away are stolen by people, sold through illegal channels, and resold to foreign auctions?" It wasn't strange for him to see it. But the organizer is really an old fox, and the photos used in the brochure are very different from what we saw on the Internet before. Jiang Yuan didn't know why he was holding the brochure I picked up at the venue.

"How is it in your hands?" I asked him, pointing to the brochure in his hand.

Jiang Yuan sharpened his voice and learned to speak to me: "Brother Zhilin, how are you?" ”

Hearing that Jiang Yuan was learning to imitate the scene just now, Li Zhilin, who was a little embarrassed, threw the tissue box on the table at Jiang Yuan, only to make him return to his normal tone, "When you ran towards Zhilin, you fell to the ground." I picked it up only to find out that it was a brochure for the auction. As soon as I flipped through it, I found that it was a little different from the publicity we had seen on the Internet before, when I was still discussing with Zhilin who could be so bold to trade lost artifacts in such an open semi-underground auction. It turned out that the current director of the auction item was obtained from a foreign auction, and with this relationship, he was not afraid of getting into trouble. After all, there is no evidence that the loss of cultural relics is related to the seller, and there are relevant documents to prove the 'legitimacy' of the seller's possession, so even if you know that it is stolen goods, there is still no way to approve the arrest on the spot. But at that time, we even sighed, and the current seller is really bold. Who knew that just after sighing, the person who told us the news of this day asked Zhilin to come to the auction to take care of you and let you auction this feng shui ornament for her. I thought you were going to get into big trouble, but now it seems that the two of you have also thrown off a big burden. It's just that I didn't expect the organizers to play such a play and take out fakes to sell. But if you think about it this way, I have to praise his fancy intestines. It may be that he is also psychologically afraid of auctioning stolen goods, although he has enough documents to prove that he has no problem with the loss of cultural relics, but the investigation will also cause trouble, but if he uses this real product to fish, he will eventually use imitation of a very similar fake to cheat money, so no matter from which point of view, it will help him reduce a lot of trouble, after all, the sin of auctioning fakes is not as big as stealing cultural relics. ”

After hearing this, Li Zhilin sneered: "If he only had such a little fancy intestines, I wouldn't be so embarrassed in the end." ”

"What did that stinky boy tell you about that mess up with himself?" After listening to Li Zhilin's words, Jiang Yuan's expression also became serious.

Li Zhilin's expression became more and more gloomy: "At first, I was the same as your guess, thinking that the organizer finally arranged to be caught and had something to do with the theft of cultural relics, so I coaxed it, and wanted to use fakes to get through, even if I couldn't pass the customs, I would just be fined a little money." However, after Mu Zixuan left, I was even more surprised that the big fish's heart could be so vicious. Zixuan, it was that tattered and bad-tempered stinky boy who told me the fact that surprised me. This auction is a scam set up by this big fish for a long time, and he doesn't want to get rid of his feng shui ornaments at all, and at the same time wants to make a big deal out of those stupid and rich buyers. For the sake of his own greed, he will do everything to the extreme. ”

Compared with my surprise, Jiang Yuandao looked calm: "But I really want to know how your bad-tempered friend determined this matter?" Does he have anyone at the organizers? ”

"Not really." Li Zhilin shook his head, "It's a matter of eating a trench and growing wise, he has been looking for the organizer for a long time." ”

While we were chatting, the proprietress brought us the freshly cooked siu mai. Li Zhilin buried his head in eating breakfast, and didn't want to continue the topic just now. I had no choice but to turn my gaze to Jiang Yuan again: "What do you mean?" ”

Jiang Yuan looked at Li Zhilin impatiently, but Li Zhilin obviously wanted to avoid this topic, so he kept his head buried and didn't look at my side. Jiang Yuan originally wanted to keep his mouth shut like Li Zhilin, but I played a cheeky spirit and kept asking, but in the end, Jiang Yuan was still defeated, and explained with a look of impatience: "Stupid, didn't Li Zhilin just say that the organizer is very greedy?" What he said was that the organizer took the auction items for free, and then absconded with the auction money you paid. It's not uncommon for this kind of semi-underground auction to happen, and the first time I heard about it was three years ago, when a lot of people were fooled. However, since that incident, the organizer has disappeared like a human being, and when he investigated, it was discovered that all the identity information he used in the auction was fake, which made it difficult to investigate. I didn't expect this time to repeat the old trick, but considering that most of the buyers I said at the beginning were novices with a lot of stupid money, and they were traps that the organizers had done at the beginning, but there were still buyers who were in a hurry to sell the auction items, I think this also brought a lot of convenience to the organizers, right? ”

"You're saying that the sellers are responsible for the organizers' conspiracy." I guessed with uncertainty what Jiang Yuan meant.

Jiang Yuan nodded: "You can say that." Before the auction began, I wondered why it was possible to gather so many cursed items in one auction, more like a cursed convention than an auction, as if the sellers had all been notified to destroy the products in one place. I did some research and found out that it was indeed a real auction. It was also at that time that I began to doubt the identity of the organizers, and although I didn't think of digging into the deepest roots, I vaguely felt very strange. But looking back now, the organizers must have understood the minds of these sellers very well, so they were able to take advantage of their efforts to organize such a big auction at once. In fact, if you find these sellers in two days, you may be able to learn more about the organizers, and you can also get real feng shui ornaments, but that's none of my business, after all, I don't have much interest in that ornament. I think there's a bigger way to do it. ”

"But you're interested in this big fish, aren't you?" Li Zhilin raised his eyebrows at Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan smiled noncommittally: "I can talk such nonsense, of course, because I want you to find the organizer." Since you know the kid who made a mess of himself, I think you should be able to find out what I want, right? ”

Li Zhilin didn't speak, just kept picking up and putting down the spoon in his hand.

Jiang Yuan knew that Zhilin was hesitating, and finally just shrugged his shoulders: "It doesn't matter, didn't you also tell Qi Guang that stupid boy is the owner of the boiled fish restaurant, I'll just cause trouble myself." But that kid is really stupid enough, since he has already caught a big fish, he has let the fish get off the hook, and he has to catch the bad guys with heroes, it seems that he is still a whimsical stupid. When he said this, Jiang Yuan set his eyes on me, which made me very unhappy for a moment. I want to argue, but I don't know what to say, and to be honest, I'm the only one who doesn't understand anything here.

Li Zhilin didn't seem to notice our situation, and said to himself next to him: "Zixuan is not so kind. He went to the organizer just to get back what his teacher had taken last time. ”

"What do you mean, it can't be that Zixuan has been fooled before, right?" I suddenly remembered Zhilin's words, "Ah, team, you just said that the self-selected way of eating a trench and growing a wisdom should mean that he has fallen at this kind of auction, right?" ”

Li Zhilin was silent, but Jiang Yuan sneered on the side: "Looking at his Chunyang today, you can imagine how stupid he was before." ”

Finally, Li Zhilin spoke up: "Jiang Yuan, don't say it." ”

Jiang Yuan pouted, but in the end he didn't say anything more.

Li Zhilin turned around and said to me: "How can I say it, in fact, it was not Li Zhilin himself who was fooled. Do you remember when Jiang Yuan told you just now that he was also a deception like Guo Jinhu three years ago? At that time, Mu Zixuan did not participate in the auction scam, and the person concerned was his teacher and one of the victims. Coincidentally, the scam today is almost identical to that of the past, with the exception of the final chaos, including the cursed things that will appear at auction, and the layout of it all bears a striking resemblance to that of the past. Mu Zixuan's teacher inadvertently saw the revelation of the auction back then, and after seeing some goods that should not have appeared, he was shocked and anxious to contact the organizer to organize the auction. He knew that if these auction items did make it to the market, it would probably cause some difficult problems for buyers. His teacher tried to stop the organizers, but he couldn't, so he had to go alone, trying to take a picture of one of the more powerful antiques with curse meanings, and bring them back to study a solution, so that they would not harm others. So he went to that fair as a buyer. Everything went fine at the beginning of the fair, and nothing went wrong until the end. But his teacher finally took it lightly, and although he didn't drain all the auction items he wanted, Zixuan's teacher did collect two cursed things that he heard were very dangerous. But the trouble came after the auction was over. Thinking that the auction items are very valuable, the organizer has stipulated that all buyers write down their own delivery addresses in advance and deliver the goods on their behalf. At first glance, this is a very intimate service, but in fact, after waiting for many days, Zixuan's teacher did not wait for the goods he photographed, and in desperation, he called the organizer's phone, but no one answered, and after a few days, the number was cancelled. Later, when someone called the police to investigate, they found out that this number was a virtual phone made by a computer. Later, when the police recorded the confession, the teacher learned that no one who participated in the trade fair that day, whether it was a buyer or a seller, had received the goods or payment. However, for those sellers who are in a hurry to get rid of their things, this is not a bad thing, and it is regarded as a ruin to avoid disaster. Although they didn't get the payment for the auction items, they still helped themselves deal with a big problem, so the sellers didn't specifically ask the police to find their goods. Therefore, they did not particularly cooperate with the police investigation, which is why the investigation has not progressed since then. But on the buyer's side, they are very anxious and always want to get back what they paid for. And the self-selected teacher is more anxious than anyone else, because she doesn't know where these 'cursed items' have been taken, so she has been searching for them all these years. Zixuan is helping the teacher, after all, he is very good at programs such as science and technology, which teachers cannot operate proficiently. After that, they followed some spiritual information from the auction that year, and found Su Baichang at an auction, and his teacher recognized this person at first glance as appearing among the staff of the organizer that year. ”

When I heard this, I really couldn't help but cry out in surprise, my eyes widened, and I looked at Li Zhilin incredulously. Li Zhilin had already expected my reaction, so he just shook his head and continued: "But Zixuan stopped his teacher from stepping forward to question Su Baichang's decision, afraid that such a line would startle the snake, and in the end, he and his girlfriend Mi Zhen, who is also another person who has an indissoluble relationship with Su Baichang, decided to secretly approach Su Baichang to see if he can find more clues along his line." But Ha Aoxiang did not follow their wishes. In addition to Su Baichang's other evil deeds, the mastermind of the auction was not found. ”

"Not really." I finally stopped being so surprised, "Didn't he follow Su Baichang's traces this time and find the organizer who lied to his teacher back then?" Although there has been no progress either. "At the end of the day, I'm a little discouraged, I can only say that this big fish is really too slippery.

"Indeed, when you left at halftime, Mu Zixuan also felt very amazing, he had investigated for so long, and he didn't find out why, and he appeared in front of the public so easily today. He felt that flying was not normal, so he reminded us to be more careful. And this time, Su Baichang also has items to be auctioned. The painting of the Tiger was the one that had appeared in that auction scam and later disappeared with the organizers. This time, both Zi Zixuan and his teacher were surprised. They thought that the painting would be treated in a more subtle form, but they did not expect it to be blatantly displayed again. 0

"It should be that the owner of the original painting will not claim it, so he will be so arrogant, right?" Jiang Yuan interjected on the side, "After all, I just wanted to get rid of it back then, and now there is no need to claim it back and make trouble for myself." However, there can't be just such a coincidence at the auction, right? I think a lot of the 'good stuff' came up in the last scam. ”

Li Zhilin agreed with Jiang Yuan's words: "You're right, the weirdest thing is that except for the last auction item, almost all of them are exactly the same as the last auction. ”
