The fat man and I were suddenly interrupted, and our eyes involuntarily looked towards the person who spoke at the door.

It was a middle-aged man I had never seen before, probably about the same age as me, dressed more seriously, with meticulous hair, and a very manly appearance, which was the type that young women liked.

I hurriedly searched for memories, and it seems that there is no business contact, what is the matter with him looking for me?

The fat man sat on the recliner, kicked me with his feet, and said, "Xiao Wu, looking for you, go and see." ”

The middle-aged man walked directly into the store, came to me, and said, "You are Wu Xie?" "I don't sound right, don't I look like Wu Xie? And listening to his tone, it seems that he has already paid attention to me.

I looked at it for a moment, nodded, and said, "Yes, do you want to buy something or sell it?" Let's talk about it first, I don't accept ordinary goods. "Otherwise, the genuine goods are more popular, although now all the real goods are replaced by real goods, and the profits are much less, but there are more repeat customers, and there are some friends introduced by repeat customers, saying that I will not be fooled when I buy and sell here.

But in principle, the person who buys my things will not be fooled, but the people who sell me things are not necessarily the same.

This person didn't have anything on him, and the suit belt was flat, and it didn't look like he had put something, so I guess he didn't come to sell it. He smiled and looked me from head to toe with a scrutinizing gaze.

This kind of look is really unpleasant, my face suddenly didn't look good, the fat man saw that something was wrong, put the big foot girl into the slippers, got up and said: "Hey, hey, hey, I said, although Boss Wu looks good, you don't stare at others with such dirty eyes, if you have something to say, let it go, look at you and don't look like you're here to do business, don't you want to find fault?" It's just in time, fat man, I haven't caught anyone practicing for a long time. ”

As he spoke, the fat man rolled up his cuffs.

I probably haven't seen a fat man say that the wind is the rain, the middle-aged man smiled a little reluctantly, retracted his gaze from me, and said, "Of course I'm here to sell something." ”

Selling something?

I think this person is not good, his kind of vision, reminds me of the old man with gold teeth seven years ago, that day I was also sitting in the antique shop, and then the old man came to ask the Warring States Silk Book, my unpeaceful life later began, and it lasted for seven years.

So this person now gives me a very bad impression, to be honest, I am not short of money now, although I am not a top boss, but these years of life and death have experienced a lot, I feel the impermanence of life, and I am not so obsessed with money, so I don't want to do his business, so I said lukewarmly: "Recently, my store is tight, I don't accept things for the time being, you go to other houses to see, do you see, go out a hundred meters and turn right, there is an antique shop there, go there to sell it." ”

The middle-aged man was quite surprised, he raised his eyebrows, and said, "Boss Wu, you can take a look at my things first." ”

The fat man and I had a very tacit understanding, and he said directly: "Look at what to see, don't accept it!" ”

The middle-aged man's face darkened, obviously angered by the attitude of me and the fat man, and then he said a strange thing to me: "Since this is the case, then I will not be reluctant, since you don't look at this thing, then don't regret it in the future." ”

As he spoke, the middle-aged man was about to walk out of the store, my heart moved, and I couldn't help but open my mouth under the influence of his last sentence, saying, "Take it out and take a look, if the goods are good, I won't treat you badly." ”

The middle-aged man turned around, sat down in front of me, and said, "I'm thirsty." ”

, you're really going to kick your nose in the face.

Since Zhao Wang died, my shop has not recruited new guys, so most of the time it is Wang Meng who helps, and now that others are in Qinghai, I can only rely on myself, so I went to make a cup of tea for the middle-aged man.

He seemed to decide that I would not drive him away again, so he drank tea slowly.

The fat man was about to have a seizure, I gave him a look, signaling him not to act rashly, generally speaking, more arrogant people have arrogant capital, if he dares to fool me later, I will definitely beat him with improper facial features, and then throw it directly out of the store.

After drinking half of the tea, the middle-aged man put his hand into the pocket of his clothes, in fact, the clothes were relatively flat, it seemed that what he took out was not a large piece, it was likely to be a rubbing or a pendant or other small things.

Immediately after, he pulled out a brown object.

It was a small piece of cloth, and the piece of cloth was actually waterproof cowhide, and it seemed that the things contained in the cloth were more important.

What could such a small thing be?

I have to admit that my curiosity was completely aroused, and even the fat man couldn't take his eyes off the piece of cowhide cloth.

Immediately after, the middle-aged man pulled out a thin object from it.

As soon as I took out that thing, I was stunned, and even the blood flow began to accelerate, I admitted, if this middle-aged man just left like this, I would definitely regret it for the rest of my life, even for the rest of my life.

It was a piece of silver leaf, about the size of a bank card, which was relatively thin, but in terms of texture, this kind of silver was relatively hard. The front of the silver leaf is shaped like a miniature sculpture, and a building appears on the silver leaf the size of a bank card.

It is exactly the same as the complex of buildings we saw on the submarine reef wall at the beginning, or even more detailed, as if it had been copied.

My first reaction was a bang in my head, and immediately after that, I took out a magnifying glass from the ground and began to observe.

First, the pattern on it is clearer than on the reef, and then it is silvery, which is somewhat dark. Generally, silver jewelry will be slowly blackened after wearing it for a long time, but it only needs to be clear with a special lotion, but the black of this fast silver piece is very deep because of the age, and it can no longer be removed.

It's a real thing.

After a while, I raised my head, suppressed the shock in my heart, and asked the middle-aged man, "How did you get this thing?" "There is a hole above the silver medal, which should be able to wear a rope, that is, this thin silver medal should have been some kind of hanging ornament, and may even be some kind of proof of identity.

As soon as I spoke, I realized that my voice was a little hoarse from excitement, and I couldn't explain it at all.

The middle-aged man seemed to have anticipated my reaction, and instead of answering me, he asked rhetorically, "How much is this thing worth?" ”

From a business point of view, I should have been silent and showed that I was not interested, so as to lower the price, but at this time, my mind was confused, and I only said one sentence: "How much, you offer." ”

The middle-aged man laughed a few times, got up and said, "I heard that Boss Wu is inquiring about the dumb Zhang, so I specially brought this thing over." ”

I was vigilant in an instant, yes, I did pay attention to the movement of the stuffy oil bottle, but I definitely couldn't inquire, because I didn't dare to inquire blatantly, because if the stuffy oil bottle really ruined the ultimate in the end, then it would definitely become a thorn in the side of 'it', a thorn in the flesh, if our Wu family still went to inquire about the news of the stuffy oil bottle at this time, it was simply announcing to 'it' that the Wu family and Zhang Qiling had a leg.

This is clearly looking for death.

Therefore, I only let some of my henchmen secretly pay attention, and it stands to reason that no one will know about it.

How would he know I was asking about the stuffy oil bottle? Who is he?

I instantly became vigilant, stared at him vigilantly, and said, "Who are you?" ”

The middle-aged man said: "My surname is Zhang, and this is my business card." "Surname Zhang? I chuckled in my heart, could it be the same clan of stuffy oil bottles?

Later, I went to look at the business card in my hand, which was in traditional Chinese, and the middle-aged man was named Zhang Tangrui, the deputy manager of a cultural company in Taiwan, mainly engaged in book operations. Taiwan's book industry is much more developed than that of the mainland, and Taiwanese people have the habit of collecting books, and the amount of purchases is also the largest in China, so cultural companies are generally more profitable.

I was a little surprised, because listening to Zhang Tangrui's accent, I couldn't hear the Taiwanese tone at all, looking at him, I didn't know how to ask for a while, and finally I could only ask: "What is your relationship with the mute Zhang?" ”

"Relationship?" Zhang Tangrui said: "Could it be that the surname Zhang has something to do with him?" ”

Of course I don't think so, but the key is that this person is not only surnamed Zhang, but also the things he took out are also related to the Zhang family, and this relationship is the lice on the monk's head, which is obvious.

I sorted out my thoughts, finally sat down, and said: "We Mingren don't talk darkly, since you came to me, there must be something wrong, it's good for everyone to say it, it's not interesting to play dumb riddles now." ”

Zhang Tangrui laughed and said, "You are an interesting person. ”

He tapped his finger and said, "You're looking for dumb Zhang, I'm also looking for him, we can cooperate." ”

I'm sure this guy has something to do with the stuffy bottle, but I don't trust him very much, because he doesn't give me a good feeling, and from the outside, it's a successful person, but I don't know why, it's probably his look that is bound to eat me, so I feel very uncomfortable.

So I said, "It's okay to cooperate, but you need to at least show some sincerity." ”

He said, "For example? ”

I said, "You haven't answered the question I asked you just now. ”

Zhang Tangrui paused and said, "What do you think is the relationship between me and the mute Zhang?" ”

The fat man couldn't help but say: "Boy, don't waste your time, if it weren't for the fact that you are a relative of the little brother, I would have done it a long time ago, and you can't take care of yourself if you beat you." ”

Zhang Tangrui glanced at the fat man and said, "This must be Boss Wang in Beijing, it's really better to meet than to be famous." ”

The fat man was stunned and said, "Hey, you know me? Do you know that the fat man's fist has always eaten meat? It can be seen that the fat man is also very unhappy with this Zhang Tangrui. But Zhang Tangrui's words made my heart skip a beat, because it meant that he was very clear about me, and even the people around me.

Immediately afterward, he said: "My relationship with the mute Zhang is as you imagined. After a pause, he said, "He is our patriarch, and as the Zhang family, we have an obligation to find the missing patriarch, aren't we?" ”

The fat man and I looked at each other, speechless for a while, I didn't expect that there were really people in this world?

Does he have parents? Because there should be, but his parents don't know if they live that long, if not, they have been in the ground for decades.

I couldn't help but speculate for a while, do you have any brothers and sisters in the stuffy oil bottle? Do you have a wife? He was at least a hundred years old, and before he lost his memory, he might have really married a wife.

For a while, I found that my perception of the stuffy oil bottle was completely subverted by this person named Zhang Tangrui, if it weren't for the silver medal in his hand, I even suspected that he was sent by one of my enemies to tease me, such as Xiaohua.
