As soon as Annan heard it, he knew that he was looking for someone again, so he said, "Then Mr. Jiao should know the address of that old gentleman, right?" β
Jiao Long replied: "I know, I live in an alley with my father, and I can take my husband over to see it after dinner." β
There is no way to do this, if you want to help Liu Xin completely exorcise the ghost, the only way is to find the ghost, and to find this ghost, you have to trace it along the pendant layer by layer.
"Okay." Annan nodded.
Liu Xin said coquettishly on the side: "Look at you, you are just an elm head, buy me a pendant and hurt me like this." β
Jiao Long hurriedly comforted: "My dear, when this matter is over, I'll buy you another good one." β
"Hmph, don't want to." Although Liu Xin is angry in his mouth, he is beautiful in his heart.
Xiao Luo said impatiently on the side: "You two don't show affection here, let's go to the old gentleman and do our best to get this matter done." β
Jiao Long thought for a while and felt that it was right, so he nodded.
β¦β¦
The four of them came to a wide alley, which can be said to be an antique street, and the street is full of antique shops on both sides.
Annan also has research in this area, and he is also very fond of antiques, after all, his ancestor is in the feng shui industry, and he inevitably has some feng shui masters' habits.
It's just that due to the limited economy, there are not a few antiques in hand, and some are also fakes.
If it weren't for the important things to do today, Annan would definitely have a good time in this antique street, even if you don't buy it, it's a great thing to have a few eyes to eat.
Jiao Long took Annan and the three of them to the innermost part of the alley, pointed to a small shop, pΓΉ, and said, "This is the old gentleman's shop." β
Annan looked at this shop, which was a small wooden room, painted with red lacquer throughout, and a eaves more than a meter long stretched out outside the house, and some ancient books and jewelry, ancient coins, jade carvings and other things were placed underneath.
However, these things make people with a little discernment know that they are fakes, and the most expensive price is definitely not more than 20 yuan.
And the good treasures of this shop pΓΉ are all in the room, Annan saw a calligraphy and painting hanging in the center of the room at a glance, although it is impossible to see whose monument it is, but just look at the quaint Cheng dΓΉ of the paper, you know that this is a good thing.
"Mr. An seems to have studied antiques deeply." Jiao Long couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Annan at a glance the most precious antique in this shop.
Annan waved his hand: "It's just a hobby, and compared to a master who is deeply immersed in this way, it can't be on the stage." β
Jiao Long laughed: "Sir, you are too modest. β
Annan: "......"
When he was about to go in to find the old gentleman, Jiao Long said to Annan mysteriously: "Sir, when this Xinxin matter is finished, remember to do me a favor, the price is easy to say." β
"What's the busy?" Annan couldn't help but wonder.
Jiao Long didn't say anything, and walked straight towards the inside of the shop.
The person who took care of the shop was a young man in his twenties, and when he saw Jiao Long coming, his eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Ouch, isn't this Brother Jiao, which gust of wind blew you here." β
Jiao Long didn't talk much to this young man, and said straight to the point: "Is Mr. Jin here?" β
"Oh, it turns out that Brother Jiao is here to find my uncle, he is in the backyard, I will take you in." The young man said earnestly, this Jiao Long is a rich master, and he also likes antiques, and he is a big customer of their antique shop.
The young man called for a teenager much younger than him to take care of the shop, and he took the four of Annan to the backyard.
The backyard is just behind the shop, just around the corner.
The courtyard was quite large, with a few willows planted, and under the willow trees to the west sat two old men, around a stone table, but playing chess.
The two old men were playing chess, and they were completely unaware of the arrival of Annan and the others.
Jiao Long didn't want to bother, so the five of them waited beside him, waiting for the two old men to finish playing chess before talking about business.
It took about twenty minutes for the two old men to finish the game.
During this period, Liu Xin couldn't bear it several times and wanted to interrupt them, but was stopped by Jiao Long in time.
At this time, one of the old men with gray hair and a big white coat said to the other person: "Old man Li, your chess skills are getting better and better, but in the past, you fell into a disadvantage after only six rounds in my hands, but now you can completely match me. β
Old man Li said: "This is not forced by you old guy, every time I lost in the past, you had to pass it on to the neighbors, so where to put my old face, so I practiced chess hard." β
"Haha, then let's kill another game?"
"Good!"
The two hit it off, and they seemed to be fiddling with the chess pieces again, as if they were going to continue the next game. Jiao Long couldn't wait, and shouted at the gray-haired old man: "Mr. Jin." β
Mr. Jin was unmoved, did not seem to hear Jiao Long's voice, and continued to fiddle with the chess pieces.
At this time, it was the young man who walked out, opened his mouth and shouted, "Uncle, a guest is coming." β
This voice was so loud that it directly startled Annan.
At this time, Mr. Jin and Mr. Li turned their heads and looked at the five people of Annan, their expressions were very surprised, as if they didn't expect that there were still people standing next to them.
The young man explained awkwardly beside him: "My uncle has bad ears, don't mind." β
Annan and the others suddenly realized.
Old man Li saw that someone was coming, and looked at Mr. Jin with a smile: "Old guy, it seems that you have a business again, then I will go first, and invite me to dinner after the business I remember is completed." β
Mr. Jin hurriedly stood up and sent Old Man Li away.
After Old Man Li left, Old Mr. Jin spoke: "Isn't this Jiao Long?" Why do you have time to come to me, do you have a fancy for any treasures? β
Jiao Long said directly: "Mr. Jin, this time I came to tell you about the pendant I bought last time. β
Speaking of the pendant, the muscles on Mr. Jin's face shook a few times: "That pendant is made of Lantian jade, there is a bloodshot in it, it is a rare treasure, and the year is also very old, you kid don't think that I bought you a fake, and you want to come to me to settle accounts?" β
Mr. Jin said absentmindedly: "Your father and I are good friends, it is a real thing, so don't worry too much." β
Jiao Long got angry when he heard it: "You old guy, you're still fooling me, although that baby is genuine, but it's a ghost thing, aren't you hurting me by giving it to me!" β
"You... You know it all? Old man Jin's voice trembled slightly.
"My girlfriend is about to be miserable by you, I still come to you often to buy things, and you actually hurt me!" Jiao Longqi simply didn't fight in one place......
