Chapter 106: The White Man Who Suddenly Appeared
There is an interconnected trade market in a city on the border between Kachin State and China, which can be passed through without a visa. Soft sister coins, Mandarin is very circulating, it seems, this is like a township in the southwest of China. However, it is not under the jurisdiction of China.
When he arrived in the capital of Kachin State, Zeng Rong began to look for the residence of the old overseas Chinese. The place is easy to find, the old overseas Chinese is a rich businessman, very famous in the local area, Zeng Rong took a taxi, reported the address and arrived at the door of a house in 20 minutes.
A large mansion facing the street, this kind of house is rare in China.
Passing a business card representing his identity through the big iron door, the young man who was a doorman and bodyguard entered, and soon, followed by a handsome young man in his twenties.
The door was opened, and the young man's Mandarin was very standard, "Hello Mr. Zeng, I am Zhang Liang, Zhu Xi's manuscript was instructed by my grandfather to be handed over to Hua Guozheng's axe." Please come with me. ”
After the death of the old man of the Zhang family, his son was not successful, but on the contrary, his grandson Zhang Liang was more capable, so it was Zhang Liang who was the master of the Zhang family now, not Zhang Liang's father.
followed Zhang Liang to the small attic on the third floor, and saw a photo of an old man with a kind face hanging on the wall facing the door of the attic.
"That's my grandfather's portrait." Zhang Liang said, looking solemn.
When the old man of the Zhang family came to Kachin State, he laid a foundation with his bare hands, and in Zhang Liang's heart, his grandfather was definitely a god-level idol.
Hearing Zhang Liang say this, Zeng Rong hurriedly walked to the statue of the old man of the Zhang family and bowed three respectfully.
"Mr. Zeng, can you take a look at your various documents?" Zhang Liang asked.
"Absolutely." Zeng Rong immediately took out all the ID cards and work permits that had been prepared a long time ago.
For the sake of caution, Zhang Liang also dialed Zeng Rong's phone number, everything was confirmed, Zhang Liang said wait a while, and went downstairs.
Soon, Zhang Liang walked up with a wooden box in his hand.
When Zhang Liang walked in, Zeng Rong's body trembled slightly, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
In this wooden box, there is really a strong sense of qi! Its intensity is still above the Four Ancestors Rosary!
Seeing Zeng Rong's expression, Zhang Liang smiled slightly, these are all in anticipation. As a businessman, as long as you have a little heart, you can know the value of this side of the manuscript, Zhu Xi's authentic handwriting, even if Zhu Xi is not like Su Shi, Huang Tingjian is a famous calligrapher, but Zhu Xi's characters are definitely still very high artistic family, with Zhu Xi's reputation, and the academic value of Zhu Xi's annotations in it, the value of this side of the manuscript is definitely more than 10 million.
Tens of millions of soft sister coins, not Myanmar coins.
The Zhang family has money, relying on a jade mine, there is money that cannot be spent in several lifetimes, but 10 million soft sister coins is definitely a number that the Zhang family needs to face.
However, Zhang Liang still decided to send it out, this is his grandfather's will.
Just walked in front of Zeng Rong, Zhang Liang was about to hand over the wooden box in his hand, but a shout came from behind him, "Son, don't give it to him!" ”
A man who looked to be in his forties, still combed his shiny hair, and was wearing a light green shirt with a short-sleeved shirt appeared, and listening to the shouts, this man was Zhang Liang's father.
Zhang Liang's father was followed by a foreigner with yellow eyes and blond hair, who was more than one meter and eight meters tall, and under the short sleeves, he could see the long hairs on his arms and strong muscles!
"Zhang Qi, what do you want to do?" When Zhang Liang saw his father, he was angry and called him by his name.
"You kid, I've been raising me for more than 20 years, call Dad, you're going to die!" Zhang Qi also glared angrily and said loudly.
It's okay if you don't stare at these eyes, but when you stare at them, it's obviously a pair of cross-eyed!
"You raise me, because of what you said, if it weren't for grandpa, people like you would have starved to death, and you could still support others!" Zhang Liang was a little angry.
"Anyway, this thing can't be given away! Mr. William approached me and offered to pay 10 million dollars for the manuscript! 10 million US dollars, hum, how can such a valuable thing be taken out and given away! Zhang Qi shouted, looking at Zeng Rong with slanted eyes while shouting.
"Ten million dollars is not enough, this is grandpa's last wish, I must be fulfilled." Zhang Liang was stunned for a moment and said firmly.
10 million US dollars can make Zhang Liang's heart move, but it can't move Zhang Liang's will to carry out his grandfather's last wish.
"Give it to me, the old man asked me to keep this thing at the time!" Zhang Qi yelled, reached out and grabbed the wooden box in Zhang Liang's hand.
"At that time, I was away from home because I was talking about business! Otherwise, how could Grandpa let you keep it! Zhang Liang tilted his body, raised his hand, and held the box high above his head.
"I really regret it! As soon as you came back, I handed over the things to you, and told you what the old man meant! "I can't grab the wooden box, Zhang Qi said unwillingly." Lao Tzu couldn't have imagined that that broken book was worth so much money! ”
"Mr. Zhang, can you let me take a look?" The foreigner spoke, speaking stiff Mandarin.
Looking at the foreigner, Zhang Liang looked vigilant.
"Don't worry, I'm just sure if it's something from the Song Dynasty of Huaguo." The foreigner took out a pocket watch-like item, put it in his hand and shook it. "I don't touch that thing, just use this instrument to measure it next to the box."
"I may grant you this request, but I ask Mr. William not to take note of this manuscript. Grandpa's last wish must be fulfilled. Zhang Liang nodded, put his hands down, and handed the wooden box to William.
When the wooden box was still a meter away from William, the pocket watch-like machine made a ticking sound.
The closer you get, the faster it sounds!
When the wooden box and the testing instrument converged a few centimeters, the sound of the pocket watch was connected, and if you didn't listen carefully, it was difficult to know that the sound was originally a one-off, not a one-piece practice.
The sound sounded continuously, with almost no pause in between, and the speed of the continuous sound was so fast that it sounded like a long beep!
Listening to this voice, William's eyes showed a look of surprise.
"It's more than 2,000 years old! It's worth it, it's worth it, so let's add one more to the price. $20 million! William said in surprise.
Seeing that someone came to grab the task items, Zeng Rong was stunned for a moment.
Hearing William say more than 2,000 years ago, Zeng Rong was shocked again! Zhang Liang and Zhang Qi didn't notice it, but Zeng Rong did.
The Song Dynasty where Zhu Xi lived was only a thousand years ago, where did he come from more than 2,000 years ago? This exposes the problem that William knew very little about the history of China.
If this is the case, how can a person who is not interested in the history of China be interested in this aspect, that is, William did not come for the historical value of the manuscript, and for the scholarly value!
Suddenly, Zeng Rong thought of a question, it is impossible to detect the age of an item so easily!
If this can be done, I am afraid that all the antique dealers in China will have one of these things.
Something that can determine the age of an item, except for Zhang Yunyi's nose, Zeng Rong no longer knows that there is a small instrument that is so small that it can be carried around.
There's something wrong with this instrument! Zeng Rong thought to himself.
After taking a few steps forward, Zeng Rong deliberately walked into William, and Zeng Rong was shocked again! There was a faint sense of aura on this William!
"Hello Mr. William." Zeng Rong stretched out his hand, looking like he wanted to shake hands with him.
"Hello!" William was stunned, but still stretched out his hand.
With a shake of both hands, Zeng Rong's qi turned slightly.
Immediately, Zeng Rong was able to determine that this William had not practiced the art of cultivating qi and luck, and as soon as the two shook hands, Zeng Rong was able to determine that William had a qi machine in his body, but there was no sign of qi running!
In other words, it is a dead air, a dead air that cannot be used. Scattered on the surface of the body, at most, it can promote some blood circulation under the epidermis.
After shaking his hand, Zeng Rong frowned again, took a few steps back, and stopped talking.
These are William's turns, and Zhang Liang and Zhang Qi are strange, say hello, and take the initiative to ask for a handshake, but after shaking hands, they immediately retreat and don't pay attention to each other, which is very strange.
Strange as strange, things go on.
"Mr. Zhang Liang, if you are not satisfied with 10 million, we will raise the price to 20 million!" William took the initiative to increase the price, and one plus was tens of millions of dollars.
Zhang Liang's Adam's apple moved. It moved heavily.
20 million US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 100 million soft sister coins! All the assets of the Zhang family are added together, and this price is just that, that is to say, this white man wants to take out another Zhang family and exchange a book manuscript with him.
This condition made Zhang Liang's shameless heart move!
There is nothing that cannot be traded, only the price that cannot be paid, the price reaches the bottom line, and any obsession is a floating cloud!
"Say yes! Say yes! Zhang Qi said quickly while glaring at Zeng Rong with his eyes. looked like he wished that Zeng Rong would get out of here immediately.
Zeng Rong is still thinking.
The price of 20 million US dollars suddenly looked like a lightning bolt! reminds Zeng Rong of one thing! That year, in the auction hall, an ancient sword with a sense of qi was auctioned off by several white people.
There's definitely a connection between the two! Zeng Rong's heart jumped a few times. Looking up at William, William was looking greedy, looking at the wooden box in Zhang Liang's hand.
"If the guess is correct, that small instrument should be an instrument for detecting gas sensation!" Zeng Rong's heart was bright.
"In other words, a certain country already knows that there are some special items with special things on them." Thinking of the faint sense of qi carried by this white man, Zeng Rong immediately knew in his heart that it seemed that the country that knew this secret had already begun to study these things, and it had certain results!
This William looks left and right, he doesn't look like that kind of sage, he can rely on his own strong self-cultivation and cultivation, and unconsciously practice a huge qi machine!
The sense of qi on this William's body must have been forcibly grafted!
"Gotta get this manuscript!" Zeng Rong's thoughts in his heart were unusually firm at the moment, "Even if you take it by force, you have to get it back!" ”
