Chapter Eighty-Six: The Tail

"It's funny!" Boss Gao sneered, "If you don't have any money, you're talking nonsense with me here!" ”“

"You let us sell the painting first, and when we sell it, we will come back and give you the money!" Wang Jianxing said.

Boss Gao shook his head and said, "No! You have run away, where shall I go to find you? ”

"We'll put something on your side."

"What are you betting on?" Boss Gao asked, "What do you have that is worth 30,000 yuan?" ”

"Charge him!" Qi Xiaofei pointed at Lao Jia and said.

"Him?" Boss Gao felt angry and funny, "You guys are so whimsical!" ”

"He's not worth 30,000 yuan as a big living person?" Qi Xiaofei asked.

"Even if he's worth 300,000, he can't bet!" Boss Gao said, "You guys ran away with the painting, what do I want this big man to do?" ”

"If we don't come back, you can let him work to pay off his debts, just like Xiao Li did!" Qi Xiaofei said, "Don't look at Lao Jia's body and bones are not very strong, but he is diligent, and he is a good hand at doing your kind of work!" ”

"Okay," said Boss Gao, "you two go and come back quickly, if I find you two running away with my painting, I will beat him up first, and then send him to the police station, and then none of you will be able to escape!" ”

"Look at what you said, Boss Gao, we won't run!" Qi Xiaofei looked at Lao Jia with an unhappy face, and said to Boss Gao, "If we run away, won't we be empty of people and money?" When the time comes, we will be arrested by the police, and I am afraid that we will have to be sentenced to a few years. We'll settle this account, so you can just wait at home and count the money! ”

"It's good to know!" Boss Gao shouted at Xiao Li, who was immersed in work, "Xiao Li, come here." ”

"What's the matter, boss?" Xiao Li raised his head and asked.

"These two bosses didn't pay a single money, so they wanted to sell my paintings, although they bet one person here, but I still don't feel at ease, you go with them." Boss Gao commanded:

"You follow them when they walk, you wait when they stand, you watch when they trade, don't talk much. Your main task is that they sell the paintings, and you bring the two of them back! ”

"And what can I do if they don't come back?" Xiao Li has been like a frosted eggplant recently, his whole body is wilting, and he can't lift his spirits about anything.

It's no wonder that during this period of time, from great joy to great sorrow, and then from great sorrow to great joy, and finally ended in great sorrow, how strong a heart can withstand this blow? Xiao Li's depressed mood may not be able to recover in a while.

"You're dead, huh?" Boss Gao got angry, "You are such a big guy, you can get one back!" ”

"Okay." Xiao Li wiped his hand on the placket, and then stood aside and waited for Wang Health and Qi Xiaofei to set off together.

Although Wang Jianxing and Qi Xiaofei were very dissatisfied with Boss Gao's arrangement, they had no legitimate reason to refuse.

Qi Xiaofei walked side by side with Wang Jiankang holding a letter envelope containing ancient paintings, and Xiao Li hung his head and followed behind.

Because Xiao Li followed behind, it was much more inconvenient for Qi Xiaofei and Wang Jianxing to talk. As the two walked forward, they squinted at Xiao Li, who looked like a tail, and frowned.

Seeing that there was a distance between him and Xiao Li, Qi Xiaofei and Wang Jianxing discussed in a whisper: "You can't let that kid stay next to you when trading, and you can't let Boss Gao know how much money we sold." If we sell well, won't Boss Gao hate us to death? ”

"It's not easy to deal with him?" Wang said, "Just find a place for him to stay honestly." ”

"Yes," Qi Xiaofei said, "put him in Lao Jia's house." ”

"Okay, that's it."

Seeing that it was getting farther and farther away from Boss Gao's acquisition station, Qi Xiaofei and Wang Jianxing waited for Xiao Li to come up, Qi Xiaofei said to him: "Let's go to sell paintings, it's inconvenient for you to go with us, let's find a place for you to rest there and wait for us, are you optimistic?" ”

"It's not good," Xiao Li said weakly, "You go and tell Boss Gao, as long as he agrees, I have no opinion." ”

"Why are you so hard to talk to?" Wang Jianxing said, "You don't get tired of walking around with us!" ”

"I can't help it," Xiao Li said, "serve people's bowls and serve people." ”

"You are dead-eyed," Wang Jianxing said, "If you don't follow us, as long as we don't say it, if you don't say it, Boss Gao won't know it!" ”

"He'll know." Xiao Li said, "Just like the last time I sold paintings, I don't think Boss Gao would know about it, and in the end, wouldn't he also know?" ”

"You-" Wang Jianxing was so angry with Xiao Li that he jumped to his feet, "It looks like you are holding a grudge against us?" ”

"Don't dare!" Xiao Li said, "How dare I, my rice bowl is in your hands!" ”

"It's good to know!" Wang Jianxing said, "Then you can honestly listen to our arrangement!" ”

"No," Xiao Li shook his head and said, "You go there, I'll follow you!" ”

"Yo, you can't get in the salt!" Wang Jianxing raised his hand and was about to slap Xiao Li, but he saw that Xiao Li was much taller than him, and he was afraid that he would not slap others, but let people beat him, and it would not look good, so he quickly stopped.

Wang Jianxing and Qi Xiaofei walked in front, and Xiao Li followed behind. No matter what means the two use, Xiao Li will not compromise. was so angry that the two of them breathed fire in their eyes, but they couldn't do anything about him.

"Or do you want to sell it to 'Pigtail Lee'?" Qi Xiaofei asked Wang Health.

"Well, let's look for him to sell it first," Wang said, "and if the price is right, sell it to him!" ”

"Let's take a taxi," Qi Xiaofei said, "It's quite far to the gallery of 'Little Pigtail Li'." ”

"Xiao Li, we'll take a taxi and leave in a while, you can't keep up." Qi Xiaofei said, "It's better to go to Lao Jia's room to rest for a while, and we'll prepare some wine and food for you." ”

Xiao Li didn't look up, nor did he say anything.

After a while, a taxi stopped in front of Qi Xiaofei and Wang Jianxing, and as soon as the two opened the car door, Xiao Li also opened the other side of the car door.

"Master," Wang Jianxing pointed at Xiao Li and said to the taxi driver, "That person is not with us, don't pull him!" ”

"If you don't pull me, none of you will be able to leave!" Xiao Li stubbornly opened the door of the taxi and bowed his head and arched in.

The driver looked at Wang Jiankang blankly.

"Okay, okay." Wang Jianxing glanced at Xiao Li impatiently and said to the taxi driver, "Then take him with you!" ”

When they arrived in front of the 'Little Pigtail Lee' gallery, three people got out of the taxi, and Xiao Li saw that there were many people on the street, and he was afraid of being thrown off by the two, so he walked next to the two people. At this time, Qi Xiaofei and Wang Jianxing wanted to whisper, but they didn't have a chance to say it. The two looked at Xiao Li, who was loose and crampy, like a cramped Laipi dog, and their teeth itched with hatred.

"Hey, 'Pigtail Lee' didn't open the door today!" Qi Xiaofei looked at the big iron lock on the door of the 'Little Pigtail Li' gallery and said, "What is this kid busy with?" What a coincidence today! ”

"Bad luck!" Wang Jianxing glanced at Xiao Li and said, "What an unlucky seed!" ”

Xiao Li knew that Wang Jianxing was talking about himself when he scolded Huai, but he still hung his head and didn't raise his eyelids.

"What should I do?" Qi Xiaofei asked Wang Health.

"We'll see later." Wang Jianxing said, "Maybe he will go out to receive the goods and come back in a while." ”

"Wait a little bit for 'Little Pigtail Lee' to come back, what price do we offer for this painting?" Qi Xiaofei asked Wang Health. Wang Jianxing looked at Xiao Li, who looked like a dog skin plaster next to him, opened his mouth, and stopped talking.

"How much does it cost?" Qi Xiaofei said, "While 'Little Pigtail Li' is not there, we have to discuss it now!" ”

"Try 120,000 first!" Wang Jianxing gritted his teeth and said to Qi Xiaofei, "Let's see how 'Little Pigtail Li' reacts, and then let's talk about it." ”

"It's dark!" Xiao Li next to him said coldly.

"You know!" Wang Jianxing scolded Xiao Li Dao, "If you ask someone to ask for 120,000 people, you will give it, don't you have to bargain?" ”

After saying this, Xiao Li returned to his appearance just now, hung his head, and remained silent.

"I feel ashamed to be conspicuous by such a person following us!" Wang Jianxing said, "Do some stupid work every day, know something, and talk nonsense next to you!" ”

"Humph!" Xiao Li snorted coldly.

After waiting for a long time, 'Little Pigtail Li' still didn't come back, and the two of them waited a little anxiously.

At this moment, not far away, an old man with white hair fluttering, white clothes, and holding a purple clay pot walked over leisurely.

"It's Lao Wei." Qi Xiaofei said to Wang Jianxing.

"I saw it too." Wang Jianxing said, "He also came to find 'Little Pigtail Li'." ”

"You have something to sell to Little Lizi?" Lao Wei saw that the door of the gallery of 'Little Pigtail Li' was locked, and saw three people guarding the door with a letter sleeve, and he guessed the purpose of these people. Among them, Wang Health is more familiar to him, and they are all mixed in the market; The other two are familiar, and the other has never been seen at all.

"Boss Wei, you're also here to find Boss Li?" Qi Xiaofei asked with a smile.

"Well, let's make small talk to him." Boss Wei said, "What's your name?" I saw that you were a little familiar, and I couldn't remember where I had seen you! ”

"Me?" Qi Xiaofei said, "I sometimes go to the ghost market to sell some books, and I often see you!" ”

"Oh," said Boss Wei, "I remember, what did you take today?" Is it going to be sold to Xiao Lizi? ”

Boss Wei and 'Little Pigtail Li' are relatively close, and they are old and old, and they all call 'Little Pigtail Li' Little Plum in front of outsiders.

"There's a painting I want to show him." Qi Xiaofei said.

"Can you show me first?" Boss Wei looked at the envelope in Qi Xiaofei's hand and said.

Qi Xiaofei glanced at Wang Health. Wang Jianxing neither nodded nor shook his head, noncommittal.

"The painting is yours?" Boss Wei asked Qi Xiaofei.

Qi Xiaofei glanced at Wang Jianxing again. Wang Xianxing twisted his head to the side.

Boss Wei saw that Qi Xiaofei always looked at Wang Health with his eyes, so he said, "Xiao Wang, I know you." If it's your stuff, I won't look at it! ”
