Chapter 2: The One-Eyed Dragon
I slapped the tofu and said, "Even if you tell the truth, you can't tell it, can you hold it in your stomach." He smiled at the one-eyed dragon and said, "I'm sorry, your conditions may not be met, we have few people here, and we are tired of work, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it." "The guys in the antique shop don't sweep the floor, just sell and sell goods, they have to have three things, namely: being able to palm, listening to the wind, and sweeping goods.
The so-called palm eye, naturally to have eyesight, to understand antiques, otherwise when receiving the goods, take the bad shoes as a baby, or take the baby as a bad shoes to sell, wouldn't I be a loss?
Second, you have to be able to listen to the wind, but if there is any wind and grass on the road, what cold goods are hot, you must be able to inquire, this line of work, is to fight for contacts and news.
And the so-called can sweep the goods, the knowledge is even greater, the things in the antique shop, to put it bluntly, nine cents of the goods are fake, one cent of the goods is true, that one cent of the goods, and sixty percent of the black goods, the remaining forty percent, most of them are not right, to put it bluntly, this is a seemingly serious, but in fact not serious business. Between buying and selling, if you are not careful, you have to be shot, and you naturally have to have a way to deal with it, such as bleaching the goods, such as stuffing red envelopes that should be stuffed with red envelopes, which can be stuffed and which can't be stuffed, there are differences. These three things add up, and if you haven't been in this industry for more than ten years, you really can't take it.
Therefore, our salary of 30,000 yuan is really not high, if it weren't for the limited funds in hand, at least 70,000 or 80,000 yuan.
This brand will try your luck when it is released, but there are some people who know little about cultural relics to apply, but these people are okay to do chores in the store, but if you want to live in a store, it will not work. I had already given up, planning to do it myself, slowly figuring out the way, but who knew that such a one-eyed dragon would come.
I said in my heart: appearance is secondary, but with this one eye, mosquitoes can be recognized as flies, do I dare to use him? But I naturally won't be as straightforward as tofu, and I refused euphemistically, but the one-eyed dragon actually rubbed his hands and said: "I can see that you are short of funds, and if you want to find a town store for 30,000 yuan, how can it be so easy, if I am not blind in this eye, I will not come even if I am invited." β
As soon as I heard this, I became angry and said, "But you are blind, so I don't want you to come." "This one-eyed dragon clearly looks down on us.
Tofu scooped his head and said to me: "Lao Chen, what you said is a bit too much, you can't laugh at other people's flaws." He turned to the one-eyed dragon and asked, "Listen to you, your ability is not small, are you?" Do you know what we're going to do? β
The one-eyed dragon smiled, his voice was hoarse, he seemed to have been smoking for a long time, and he showed a mouthful of big yellow teeth, and said, "Of course I know, except for the work I can't dig mushrooms, I will do it properly for you." "Tofu and I were a little surprised, this person can talk in secret, it seems that he is also a person in the industry, and he is different from the young people who came to apply before.
I put away my contempt, and the three of them went into the inner hall to talk carefully.
The one-eyed dragon introduced himself as Zhang Sheng, who used to fight with the people in the village, and then gradually entered the industry, worshiped an unknown master, and fell a lot of buckets over the years, of course, the big buckets are hard to find, they are all small tombs, and the last time he was hit by the trap in the process of the fight, fainted in the ancient tomb, and was arrested by the police who came later. Fortunately, their master and apprentice have always kept a low profile, so they did not leave any criminal records, and the sentence was not heavy.
I understand that this is a colleague who is much better than me and Tofu in terms of qualifications, he has been fighting for more than ten years, and I have only been in the industry with Tofu for two months, so it is more than enough for him to come to the town store. Tofu had some scruples, pulled me aside to discuss, and said, "If you come out of prison, you have a criminal record, do you dare to use it?" β
I said, "It's okay, we have all the documents, this person has two brushes, you can see his hands." The white cocoon on the palm of the man's hand was formed after the calluses had been worn for a long time, and it could be seen that it should be something like a frequent use of a probe shovel, so I turned around and asked, "Who is your master?" β
The one-eyed dragon smiled and said, "He doesn't have a big name, and he is called blind in the road." β
I hissed, my face couldn't help but change, and my heart said: Where don't we meet in life, it's okay, Hu Lao's blind apprentice came to me to avenge the master? I wasn't the one who framed Hu Lao's blindness.
The one-eyed dragon saw my face change, so he smiled and said: "The one who digs mushrooms in the inverted bucket, the relationship between master and apprentice is not right, I just heard that the master has entered the number, so I want to fend for myself. β
I don't know if what this one-eyed dragon said is true, but I do have poor people here, no matter how powerful Hu Lao Blind is, he has entered the bureau, and he can't turn over any wind and waves, speaking of which, the reason why I will embark on the road of digging mushrooms is also due to Hu Lao Blind, if I didn't accidentally get acquainted with Zhao Erye, I'm afraid that my wife will be separated in the end, and I can't figure out what's going on.
Thinking about it, I didn't have any worries in my heart, and the matter was settled, and the store was handed over to the one-eyed dragon to watch.
Seeing that a month has passed, and there is no news from Zhuanrui's side, I was about to call to ask, the one-eyed dragon brought me a message, the store was closed in the evening, and the three of us big men did not often fire, and went to the restaurant to eat, and the one-eyed dragon said: "Dongjia, I have a message to tell you, then Zhao Yi is back." "Zhao Yi is the name of Second Master Zhao.
I was taken aback and said; "When?"
The one-eyed dragon said, "Just last night." β
I said, "How do you know?" β
The one-eyed dragon smiled and said, "I don't have any eyesight at all, how can I still mix in the road." There are several people in this antique city, and Zhao Yi is one of them, of course I have to pay attention to it. Thinking of this, I said to the one-eyed dragon: "I underestimated you before, and in the future, the three of us will work together, and when the time is ripe, I will not wronged you." β
The one-eyed dragon is a knowledgeable person, and said: "I am blind in one eye, and I have a criminal record, I know very well in my heart, go to those people, people can't look down on them, even if they do, those people can have a lot of people in their hands, and I can have a blind thing." So, don't worry, as long as you don't feel sorry for me, I Zhang Sheng won't be sorry for you, and I will definitely play for you before and after the saddle. β
The two of us tested each other, and the tofu was eating on the side, and the mouth was full of oil, and said: "You two are so talking, talking about not being tired, I am tired when I listen to it, I don't say anything, look at this salt-baked chicken, sacrifice your life, take off your clothes and lie on the plate for you to eat, you don't even look at it, how sad it is." After that, he tore off the chicken wings and kissed them, saying, "Little chicken, I'll hurt you." β
Being interrupted by the tofu like this, the one-eyed dragon and I also stopped talking and ate and drank.
Since Second Master Zhao is back, there must be news from Zhen Rui's side, and after dinner, I called Zhen Rui, but it was the subordinate named Zhong Gong who answered the phone.
I asked, "What about your own family?" β
"Haven't come back yet."
I remember that Zhong Gong has always been with Zhen Rui, the last time I went to get the letter, I didn't see him, I must have followed Zhen Rui into Shu, now that Zhong Gong has appeared, there is no reason for Zhen Rui to come back. Without waiting for me to ask, Zhong Gong took the initiative to say: "Something happened on the master's side, it was very tricky, he asked me to tell you, and the operation was suspended." β
"Pause?" I said, "What's going on over there?" β
Zhong Gong still said in the same tone, more respectful but detached, and said: "When the matter is done, the master will naturally sue you." β
After a call, I didn't ask anything, and I couldn't help but feel a sudden. Zhao Erye and Zhen Rui pursued Lu Su away, what happened?
After thinking about it, I don't think it's okay, I have to visit Zhao Yi tomorrow to find out the situation. The next day, I went to the Peak Tower alone, and Second Master Zhao seemed to have expected me to come back, with a black box at hand.
He didn't change much from two months ago, wearing a white moire Tang suit, holding a smoking pipe in his hand, and said, "I know what you're going to ask, and the previous thing has been written off." He gestured to the thing next to him with his eyes and said, "For the sake of Zhen Rui's face, take this thing." β
I stared at the box, and saw that the black box was wooden, carved with cloud patterns, and the box was not locked, obviously opened by Zhao Erye. I can't wait to know what the statement will be for my grandfather, and Second Master Zhao must have seen it a long time ago, so I don't need to shy away from it, I opened it in front of him.
I held my breath the moment the wooden box opened, and then, when I saw what was inside the wooden box, I was stunned because the wooden box was empty.
My heart suddenly became hot and said, "Second master, are you playing with me?" β
Old man Zhao smoked a cigarette and said, "I'm not interested in playing with you, the things were put in this wooden box by me a month ago, that is, at the beginning of my departure, and hidden in the secret compartment, but when I come back, it will already be like this." β
Something stolen?
Who did it?
I think it's unlikely, although I haven't been to Zhao Erye's house, but just looking at the pomp and circumstance of this Dengfeng Tower, I also know that Zhao Erye's home is not so easy to enter, who can steal from his house? And also from the dark grid?
I wonder if the old man surnamed Zhao is playing tricks on me, could it be that he didn't want to hand over the things, but he was hindered from agreeing to Yuanrui, so he set up this plan?
I had a lot of speculations in my heart, but the old man Zhao didn't give face, and said: "Someone dares to steal from under me, don't worry, I will naturally check down." β
Don't worry, I looked at Old Man Zhao's calm appearance, and I became more and more suspicious that this old boy was the ghost, but it was not easy to turn his face at this time, so I could only buckle the wooden box and said lightly: "Since the thing has been lost, then you sue me, what did he give you?" β
Zhao Erye said directly: "It's a strange silk book." β
Quirky silk books?
It looks like the clichΓ© was made from the tomb of the Giant Ear King, how weird would it be?
