Chapter Eighty-Six: The Bad Gambler (Ask for Subscription!) Ask for a commuter pass! )
More than 10 million paintings.
Anyone who has the opportunity to get it will be tempted.
Ji Sheng is no exception, but he really doesn't know if Xiao Liao can inquire for himself.
At noon the next day, just when Ji Sheng was about to take Ji Aiguo and others to run away with customers, Xiao Liao actually came to the door again.
Ji Sheng knew that there was news at a glance, and hurriedly welcomed Xiao Liao into the house, and asked Ji Aiguo and others to buy some cooked vegetables and come back to have lunch with Xiao Liao.
Ji Aiguo and the others went out.
Ji Sheng sat in the room and chatted with Xiao Liao.
Xiao Liao didn't talk nonsense, and as soon as he sat down, he said: "Yesterday, a person you asked me to inquire about, I called and asked Yangpu here, probably some eyebrows, but the information is a little wrong." ”
"What's wrong?" Ji Sheng said.
"That Zhi Youyou is only in his thirties, and it can't be your friend's father, as for his father, he was born relatively late, and now he is in his seventies, so it seems that it can't be your friend's father." Xiao Liao told what he knew.
Ji Sheng blinked and said nonsense: "Maybe his father is it?" Can you tell me where he lives? ”
"Oh, his family lives in the Modong area."
Xiao Liao didn't doubt it, said the address, and finally admonished, "Don't say what I told you." ”
"I know, Brother Liao, are you still worried about me?" Ji Sheng asked for some more information about Zhi Youcai.
For example, what do you do in the factory, do you have a wife, etc.
Xiao Liao also knows everything, and cleans up the support with talents.
At the end of the meal, Ji Sheng had basically grasped the basic information of Zhi Youcai, who was in his thirties and worked as a mechanic in a textile factory.
Today's mechanic is a very popular profession, and the salary is higher than that of ordinary workers, so it stands to reason that Zhi Youcai should have married a wife a long time ago, but Xiao Liao heard the news that this person is good at eating and gambling, and no woman is willing to marry him at all.
Ji Sheng didn't care about this information, he just needed to know that the Ninth National Cotton Factory did have a talented person.
……
Had lunch.
Ji Sheng instructed Chu Zhonglin and others to try to run the order, and he took Ji Aiguo and Ji Qing to the Ninth National Cotton Factory to inquire about Zhi Youcai.
Yangpu, the ninth factory of national cotton.
It's a huge factory, and from time to time there are big trucks coming in and out of the factory.
Ji Sheng took the initiative to go to the doorman to inquire about the news, and the doorman was a little vigilant at first, but after he handed over a bag of Hongtashan, he said everything.
He went to the morning shift today, got off work at five o'clock in the afternoon, and looked very burly and had a mole on his face.
After Ji Sheng got the information, he waited at the door with Ji Aiguo and Ji Qing.
The afternoon passed quickly.
Just after five o'clock in the afternoon, the people who went to work in the morning got off work, and a large group of people emerged inside, and there were one or two thousand people, many young and beautiful girls, and many women and uncles.
Ji Sheng didn't care what those people were, he just stood at the door and kept staring at whether the people with the features that the doorman said appeared or not.
About four or five minutes later.
Ji Sheng saw a man with a mole on his face and two fingernails covered with black dirt on his face and people coming out with a 28 bar as he spoke
“…… I made an appointment to play cards, but there is still a lack of someone, do you always come? It should be Zhi Youcai, the man asked the short, middle-aged man who was traveling with him.
The short middle-aged man shook his head, "I'm not like you who don't have to worry about it, or if I go back, my wife will quarrel." ”
Ji Sheng took the opportunity to shout, "Zhi Youcai? ”
Zhi Youcai glanced at it and wondered, "Are you?" ”
Ji Sheng didn't plan to go around in circles, he had thought about it before he came, and he would attack Jin Yuan directly, and when he saw that this person was sure that this person was a talent, he directly stepped forward and sent a Hongta Mountain, "Oh, my name is Ji Sheng, I want to get to know you." ”
Zhi Youcai was very vigilant and didn't take his cigarette, "What's the matter with you?" ”
"There's a lot of people here, let's go over and talk?" Ji Sheng pointed to the corner not far away.
Zhi Youcai thought for a while, "Okay." ”
didn't bring Ji Aiguo and Ji Qing over together.
Ji Sheng and Zhi Youcai came to the corner.
"What's the matter, tell me." There is a way to support talents.
Ji Sheng explained his intentions, "I heard that you have a lot of calligraphy and paintings at home?" I like calligraphy and painting, and I want to buy two from you, and the price is negotiable. ”
I don't know why, Zhi Youcai's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he said directly: "No!" ”
Ji Sheng was stunned for a moment, thinking that he hadn't explained it, and hurriedly added: "The price is really good......
"Why the fuck are you talking so much nonsense, labor and management say no is no, you fuck nonsense again believe it or not, I'll beat you." Zhi Youcai has a very hot temper and is full of swearing.
As the saying goes, buying and selling is not benevolent, you don't sell paintings to me, you don't have to be so bad, right?
Ji Sheng was furious by what he said, but he endured it for the sake of splashing color paintings, and he smiled as much as he could, and directly offered the price: "I'll give you a hundred yuan for a calligraphy and painting, okay?" ”
Maybe it was a high price of 100 yuan, Zhi Youcai obviously hesitated, and then he frowned and said, "Don't bother." ”
After saying this, Zhi Youcai ignored Ji Sheng, turned around and left.
Wipe.
Die before leaving the school.
I didn't even see what it looked like, and I was sprayed.
Ji Sheng really didn't know what to say.
He is really unwilling, that splash painting is worth more than 10 million, and it is the easiest treasure he can get at present.
If Zhi Youcai didn't hesitate at all, Ji Sheng probably really believed that this person didn't have that splash painting, but just now Zhi Youcai was obviously moved, but he didn't know why he hesitated.
There are definitely paintings.
But how do you get it?
Gu Xiao
Ji Sheng didn't have any idea, but suddenly, he thought that Zhi Youcai had just walked out with a short middle-aged man, and he thought that he could find that short man as a breakthrough?
Thinking of this, he hurriedly greeted Ji Aiguo and Ji Qing, and then looked for the person who walked with Zhi Youcai just now in the crowd.
I really didn't find it at first.
It wasn't until Ji Sheng really didn't want to give up and came to the bus stop that he suddenly found the short man squatting alone and smoking.
"You two are waiting for me here." Ji Sheng explained.
"Okay."
"Okay."
Ji Aiguo and Ji Qing said in unison.
Ji Sheng walked next to the short man and handed over a cigarette, "Hello." ”
The short man looked up at him, but he didn't refuse, he reached out and took the clip in his ear, "Hello, what's the matter?" ”
Ji Sheng squatted down and said, "Big brother, I want to ask you something." ”
"What's the matter, you can tell me."
"I see that you seem to have a good relationship with Zhi Youcai, I want to ask ......"
"Does anyone else ask about this rotten gambler? His father was so angry that he was hospitalized. ”
"Huh? What's going on? ”
"What can it be, his father used to be a university professor, and he likes to collect braille and paintings on weekdays, but this kid is good, he is addicted to gambling, and when he loses all the money in his pocket, he goes home to find his father, and the old man's retirement salary is ignored by him, and when he turns around, he secretly takes out his father's calligraphy and paintings to sell, and this sale is a lot, and when the old man finds out, there are a few left, no, he was angry and went to the hospital."
Ji Sheng was speechless for a while, and said in his heart that this talented team is really talented, and he gambled his father into the hospital, estimating that there are few people in the world.
At the same time, he also knew why Zhi Youcai was angry when he heard that he was going to buy calligraphy and paintings, and he estimated that this guy had a good conscience, and knew that he should not squander the old man's lifelong collection.
After listening to the short man's words, Ji Sheng hesitated for a while whether to buy the painting, after all, the old man was hospitalized because of those paintings, don't be angry with it later, then he is very guilty.
"Do you want to buy calligraphy and paintings from him too?" The short man seemed to see something and asked.
Ji Sheng smiled bitterly: "I originally had this idea, but after listening to you, I suddenly didn't want to buy it." ”
"Actually, it's useless for you to look for him, his father is afraid that all the calligraphy and paintings will be sold out when he is hospitalized, so he specially took them to the hospital together, you really want to buy it, it is better to go to the hospital to talk to the old man, maybe he is willing to sell." The short man sighed: "The old man didn't spend much money on hospitalization, but the family was hollowed out by the support, and there was not even a coffin left." ”
If you buy it directly from the old man, Ji Sheng really doesn't have any guilt, provided that the old man is willing to sell.
He decided to give it a try, so he asked the short man about the hospital.
The short man didn't hide it, and told him which hospital it was.
……
Bought some fruit on the way.
Ji Sheng, Ji Aiguo, and Ji Qingyan rushed to the hospital without even eating dinner.
went to the hospital and asked, and learned that the old man was in the ward on the third floor, so Ji Sheng went with the fruit.
Third floor, in the ward.
Before Ji Sheng went in, he saw that only the old man who looked seven or eight points similar to Zhi Youcai was alone in the room, and Zhi Youcai got off work early tomorrow, but he didn't come to visit.
He suddenly recalled that when Zhi Youcai got off work, he said that he was going to play cards, and he couldn't help hating this person very much.
I was thinking about it, the old man seemed to want to get up to go to the toilet or something, but he was sick and had no strength in his body, and he didn't get out of bed several times.
Ji Sheng saw it, hurriedly walked in and put the fruit on the ground, and then stretched out his hand and said, "Old man Zhi, are you going to the toilet?" I'll help you go. ”
Ji Aiguo and Ji Qing also followed.
Old Man Zhi glanced at him in surprise, and then smiled and said, "Thank you." ”
Ji Sheng helped him up, "It's okay, it's inconvenient for you to be alone, I'm just doing it." ”
Old Man Zhi didn't say anything, let Ji Sheng help him go to the toilet, and then went back to the hospital bed to lie down.
Ji Sheng asked with concern, "Have you eaten?" ”
The old man sighed and said, "No, wait for my son to deliver the meal, but it's so late, I guess he won't come." ”
Knowing the son is like the father.
Ji Sheng saw that the old man was also quite pitiful, took out the money from his pocket, and said to Ji Aiguo and Ji Qing: "Aiguo Xiaoqing, buy some food for the old man and come back." ”
Ji Aiguo stretched out his hand to take the money, "Okay." ”
Old Man Zhi didn't stop him, just looked at him so curiously.
Ji Aiguo and Ji Qing went to buy food.
As soon as the people left, Ji Sheng hadn't spoken yet.
Old Man Zhi said bluntly: "You also want to buy calligraphy and paintings, right?" ”
Sweat!
I'm not the only one who has been here, right?
Ji Sheng was really embarrassed to be broken, he saw that the old man asked so directly that there was a play, so he nodded and said: "I do have this idea, but it's okay if you don't want to sell it, I have heard others talk about the situation in your family before I came, and I know that you attach great importance to calligraphy and painting." ”
The old man was happy, "You are honest, not as curved as the previous waves." ”
Ji Sheng smiled and didn't speak.
Old Man Zhi snorted, "Actually, it's not a matter to sell you a painting or two, provided that you can promise me a condition." ”
Yes?
Will you really sell it to me?
Ji Sheng didn't have much hope, but when he heard Old Man Zhi say this, he suddenly became enthusiastic and hurriedly said, "Please speak." ”
He wanted to hear what conditions the old man would propose, if he could do his best, if he really couldn't do it, it would be fine, just explain it directly.
Anyway, Ji Sheng thought about it, he wouldn't do this kind of thing, and he would buy calligraphy and paintings.
