Chapter 4 This fat man's name is Zhao Xu
The Kang-Tibetan young man who came to greet Gao Chao was tall and thin, his body looked strong and healthy, his face was sharp and angular, his nose was high, his eyes were big, his eyebrows were thick, and he had the typical blood and appearance of the Kham Tibetan people.
He walked over enthusiastically, spoke in Mandarin with a strong Tibetan accent, and accosted Gao Chao: "Friend! Tashi Delek! What a big backpack wow! ”
But Gao Chao just smiled and nodded, as a gesture of friendship, obviously, Gao Chao hoped that he could not be entangled by him.
However, the "enthusiastic" Kangzang young man did not want to stop there, but hugged the backpack behind Gao Chao and said, "Friend! How heavy! I'll help you! ”
Although he was enthusiastic on the surface, Gao Chao was not happy, because Gao Chao knew that this Kangzang young man did not really want to help him bear the weight of the backpack, but wanted to touch what was in his backpack, if he could touch the barrel of a shotgun, it would be equivalent to half of his business.
Although Gao Chao was not happy, but he had to let the Kang Zang young man touch enough outside his backpack, because these Kang Tibetan people are very strong, and they have violent personalities, but they are also very united, once there is a dispute with outsiders, almost all Kang Zang will hold a group to unite with the outside world, so the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, Gao Chao has to wait patiently for him to finish touching, to confirm that Gao Chao is not a hunter who came here to poach, he will naturally lose interest in Gao Chao.
Sure enough, when the Kangzang young man touched it around and found that there seemed to be only some broken porcelain and broken iron in Gao Chao's huge backpack, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said to Gao Chao with some disappointment: "Tashi Delek!" Friends, welcome to Dram. ”
Dram, also in Tibetan, De is peace, Ram is a fairy, and Drum is also the meaning of a fairy of peace.
As he spoke, he spread out his hands to the other Kangzang boys sitting beside him and made a helpless grimace, which caused a burst of laughter from the boys over there.
The young people of Kangzang are very enthusiastic, their enthusiasm is very special, full of free wildness, so sometimes they will habitually joke with outsiders, but often make outsiders feel uncomfortable, and even a little afraid, but in fact, most of them have no malice, just nature.
Gao Chao was more or less accustomed to such things, and immediately greeted the group of Kangzang boys and said, "Tashi Delek! ”
Of course, the boys also enthusiastically shouted "Tashi Delek" to Gao Chao, and then laughed and ignored him.
And at this moment, in the deepest part of the teahouse, a voice came.
"Lao Gao! This way! ”
The voice was very high-pitched, and in such a lively teahouse, everyone could hear it clearly.
Gao Chao naturally heard it, but he didn't even need to look at it, and he had already walked over there.
Because he knew the voice all too well, it had been around him for as long as he could remember.
This voice came from a fat man, this fat man, called Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu and Gao Chao are small, friends who have played since childhood, his family also has a hall in Qingshuitang, Changsha, and it is on the opposite door of Lao Gao's house, although the adults of their two families do not move around frequently, and they have little intersection, but these two children have a brotherly friendship because they are of the same age.
The two of them have been up and down the river together since childhood, catching fish and mud together, doing good things together, and stabbing the basket together, in the long childhood and youth, they have cultivated irreplaceable brotherhood, loyalty and trust that cannot be destroyed, even when Gao Chao went to Inner Mongolia to serve as a soldier in Changsha a few years ago, because his father was not in good health, so the big and small things inside and outside their family, and the trivial life, were also handed over to the fat man to help take care of.
Usually when I think of this, Gao Chao also feels that there is a fat man, because in their old Gao family, he is the only seedling, and he has no brothers and sisters or anything, and the fat man has a younger sister or something, although that sister Zhao Xue was passed on to their family by others, but their brother and sister have a good relationship, and there is no difference between them and their own children, the key is that his sister can still do things, so this time the two of them came out to shovel the land, and the business of the two halls in the family was taken care of by the fat man's sister Xiaoxue.
In Gao Chao's view, the fat man's personality and body are as powerful, and he is an absolute reckless man, so Gao Chao and he have been together since childhood, no matter what they do, they naturally have a clear division of labor, Gao Chao is basically responsible for making ideas, making plans, and leading a small group of two, while the fat man is an absolute fierce general, taking the lead, always charging at the forefront.
So Gao Chao has always felt that such a combination is really a perfect match, the complementary fusion between the two of their personalities, after so many years of running-in, has formed a combat effectiveness that cannot be underestimated, just take this time out to shovel the ground, it is Gao Chao's idea, and the fat man responded positively.
- "Since the old guys who shoveled the land in the past did not supply us, then we have to break out to find the source of goods, self-sufficiency, and get rid of the impact of the bottom of the food chain on our superstructure, I think if we can open a way out and find another way, and achieve the integration of procurement, production and sales chain, then we will become a unique benchmark in the industry, and become a rising star in the antique industry in Changsha Qingshuitang." ”
When Gao Chao said these words to the fat man at the end of last year, the fat man trembled with excitement, and the next morning, they embarked on the road to the west, with a warm blood and two red hearts, the two of them came to this legendary mountain, northwest Yunnan.
In fact, although the idea of self-sufficient to come out and shovel the land is exceeding, the place where they come out to shovel the land is given by the fat man.
Because the ancestors of the fat man are not the same as the old Gao family, Gao Chao heard his father say that his family has been an antique businessman since ancient times, starting from the ancestors who "moved bricks" for a while, and slowly accumulated the bottom of the house, and then did it step by step, so that there is today's Qibaoxuan in Qingshuitang, Changsha (the so-called moving bricks, is to resell antique cultural relics).
And the fat man's family is completely different, first talk about the background, the fat man's family is two generations up, then he is no longer a businessman, the fat man's grandfather is said to be a craftsman, to put it bluntly, he is a corpse toucher who fishes out the door outside the eight lines, as the name suggests, that is, "a red candle, touch the corpse on the ground, no profit does not go, peel off a layer of skin" tomb robbers.
It is said that the fat man's grandfather, that is definitely a god who went down to the ground and fought upside down, once the fat man drank too much and bragged to Gao Chao, saying that their family has been a corpse toucher since his grandfather's grandfather's grandfather, and it is said that even the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has touched it, and the cowhide is blown, and there is no edge and no way to listen.
However, although the fat man likes to brag, but his family does seem to have a bit of kung fu, Gao Chao also heard his father say, saying that the old Zhao family is a nouveau riche, a nest of corpse touching craftsmen, not clean, let yourself less mess around with Zhao Fatzi, afraid that the fat man will bring him bad, from this point it can be seen that Gao Chao's father really looked down on the fat man's family when he was young.
But Gao Chao's father also said that Zhao Fatzi's father is said to have done this business, and it seems that he was quite Taoist when he was young, and no one knew about the shovel Zhao in Changsha at that time, all because the fat man and his father played a good shovel, that is, the Luoyang shovel, and the speed of digging holes and pits is said to be faster than that of rabbits, so at that time, there were always some evil prices in their halls, the so-called evil prices, that is, surprisingly high prices, so that their old Zhao family's business was naturally very good, It also did a good job, at that time in Changsha when Zhaojiatangkou Wanjin Pavilion was mentioned, it can be said that everyone knows it, and no one knows it.
But then caught up with the war era, the prosperous era of antiques and troubled gold, it is conceivable that this antique business will not be able to continue.
At that time, Gao Chao's family was all businessmen, and their natural health was not so good, so they ran to the countryside to take refuge, but the fat man's father's body was leveraged, and the fat man followed his father, so his father shovel Zhao joined a unit of the People's Liberation Army Erye in a daze, and before the liberation of the country, he also ran to the border area of Yunnan to fight against bandits.
So speaking of which, in fact, the fat man's father has already been here in Yunnan, according to the fat man himself, his father because of his fiery eyes, see feng shui, and point the dragon's lair, so his father in Yunnan to fight against bandits, and Yaxing Guanshan to find the pulse to find the ancient mound, really let his father find a lot of highly concealed tombs.
But after all, his father is following the troops of the People's Liberation Army, and the army is strictly disciplined, so he can only relieve his greed, even if he finds that he passed by those tombs when he was marching, his father didn't even dare to let go of a fart, he could only step over those treasures with his eyes, and the mood was absolutely depressed, and he had a dead heart.
Although the fat man's father failed to touch the corpse in Yunnan with his own hands, but his father was deeply impressed by the ancient tombs hidden in the mountains in Yunnan, and he had a soft spot, in the words of the fat man, as long as his father drank too much, he must have shouted that he wanted to go back to Yunnan again, and he had to dig a thief hole to get into it to see, and he gave this wish to the end, but after so many years, his father was just like the fat man, drinking and bragging, but he never saw any action.
So this time, the fat man heard Gao Chao say that he was going to come out to shovel the ground, so he discussed it with his father, who was about to get old and confused, that night, because his father was experienced and knew where there were good goods, so he hoped that his father would give him some pointers, so that the two of them would not be busy working for the first time.
It's just that the fat man's father is indeed a little older, almost a hundred years old, it seems that when the fat man was born, his father was sixty or seventy years old, and at that time it was also considered the old son of the Zhao family, which was not easy, so after the fat man and his father heard that his only son was going to shovel the land, he was almost not angry to death, because in the eyes of their older generation, the sale of shoveling the land is almost the same as digging up dung and picking up rags, and it is not on the table.
But who is the fat man, he has a lively brain, a lot of ideas, and after thinking about it, he played the emotional card with his father, so the fat man snot and said to his father with a handful of tears, this time he went out to shovel the ground, completely for his old man's unfulfilled wish, the two of them are going to the northwest of Yunnan this time, just to have a deep trip in the mountains, although he can't be as brave as his father was back then, but he can use the money to take back all the good things that have fallen in the people, which is also the same way, but a wish of my father.
As a result, as soon as the fat man's idea came out, his father almost died again, but this time he was almost moved to death.
His father believed the fat man's words, and said to the fat man earnestly, because there are many mountains and water systems in northwest Yunnan, there are many dragon vein holes, but most of those feng shui treasures have no establishment and are not large-scale, so the emperor's tomb will naturally not be chosen there, but there must be princely tombs since ancient times, but those tombs are also very hidden, mostly in the deep mountains and old forests that no one enters, so presumably the number of antiques scattered in the folk should be extremely rare, but it is also possible, If there are some good hand touchers in the past, they will also sprinkle some good things in the villages in the deep mountains, although there are not many of those things, but they must all be high-quality products, so if you want to go, it is worth it, and his father did not expect that his son could still have this filial piety, so he nodded with satisfaction and agreed, and gave his own suggestions to the location of the fat man to enter Yunnan.
So this Bingzhongluo was told to the fat man by the fat man's father, and now it seems that their decision to come to this place seems to be a complete mistake.
At this time, Gao Chao had already walked over with a big bag on his back, and when the fat man saw this, he hurriedly stood up and helped unload the backpack behind Gao Chao.
