Back to the villa.

Ji Cheng didn't even think about it, and directly searched the entire house for its three table lamps.

"Hope hasn't been disposed of."

He prayed in his heart.

Although this possibility is not very large, after all, there are so many peerless treasures, he must want to get it.

I first walked around the living room and didn't see any trace of the lamp.

Ji Cheng went to the equipment room again to take a look, but found nothing.

As for the bathroom and kitchen, he didn't go to these places at all, it's unrealistic to think about it, whose desk lamp is put in the bathroom and kitchen?

There was no one on the first floor, he went to the third floor, and the second floor was a billiards room, a table tennis activity room, and the like, as long as the head was fine, he basically wouldn't put a desk lamp.

Third floor.

Ji Cheng first walked around a few guest bedrooms, but saw several table lamps, but unfortunately, these table lamps were not the same as those three.

"It's weird, can't they all be in the master bedroom?"

He left the third floor with a puzzled expression.

Go to the fourth floor.

Ji Cheng went straight to the master bedroom.

As soon as the door opened, he saw a lamp on the bedside table!

"I'll go, it's really here."

Ji Cheng ran forward ecstatically, picked up the lamp and looked at it, he remembered that the lamp contained a black diamond.

Nima, the black diamond with radiation is placed at the head of the bed, no wonder this house has repeated murders.

Ji Cheng had long speculated that there was some kind of radiation in the black diamond that might induce mental illness, and he was afraid that he would also be affected by the radiation of the black diamond, so he hurriedly threw the table lamp into the system space first, thinking that he would find all three table lamps and dismantle them together.

Putting away the lamp, he said to himself: "Well, I finally found one, I don't know where the remaining two are, I'll look for them again." ”

He rummaged in the master bedroom for a long time, and found no more.

Probably somewhere else.

Ji Cheng didn't waste any more time in the master bedroom, and instead came to the study next door.

This time, as before, as soon as I entered the door, I saw a familiar desk lamp on the desk.

"Khan, it's a bedroom and a study, and it almost occupies all the places that may be exposed to radiation when you get home, so it's no wonder that it doesn't induce mental illness."

Ji Cheng was a little speechless when he saw the placement of the second table lamp, but he took a closer look and found that this table lamp did not seem to have black diamonds.

Although there are no black diamonds in this table lamp, Ji Cheng is still a little puzzled, why are these table lamps still here after decades?

He thought about it carefully and understood that the bearded bald boss had said that he had bought the mansion before the subprime mortgage crisis in '08.

Before that, the owner of the house was arrested for murder, which means that no one has moved in for several years.

Although the owner of the house was later released, he sold the house to the bearded bald boss at the first time, thinking that because he was no longer disturbed by radiation in prison, his spirit was stable, and he felt guilty about the death of his two wives, and he did not want to return to this house to see things and people, so he directly sold the house, including everything in it.

Although the bearded bald boss has bought this house for many years, this mansion is famous, and I am afraid that he has not been here much.

That's why these lamps are still here.

"This lamp doesn't have black diamonds." Ji Cheng also threw the desk lamp into the system space, "So where will the desk lamp with the black diamond be left?" ”

He flipped through the house again.

I walked around the fourth floor, but no.

On the fifth floor, there is still no trace.

I went to the sixth floor, the seventh floor, and even the basement carefully, but I still didn't find a single lamp left.

Ji Cheng, who had just come out of the basement and was standing in the living room, frowned and thought, "It shouldn't be, these two table lamps are here, why is the remaining one missing?" ”

The normal situation is that either all of them are gone, or they are all here, how can there be only one missing?

It can't be taken away by the bearded bald boss, right?

Ji Chengyi pondered that it was really possible, after all, this house had always been the property of the bearded bald boss before this, even if he stayed away from the murderous house, he always had to come to clean it on weekdays, and it was not normal to see a beautiful table lamp to bring back?

"Yes, go to the pawn shop owner and ask about the situation."

Not to mention that the lamp contained twelve priceless gems, just saying that there was a black diamond in it, Ji Chengcheng couldn't give up.

Yes, he speculated that black diamonds might have radiation and induce mental illness, which should not be taken so seriously.

But don't forget, this is the Eye of the Creator, a Hindu artifact!

Since Ji Cheng can make Sharma owe favors with two black diamonds, then if he can get together three black diamonds, he can also make the hearts of some Hindu teachers in the eighties who wanted to perform miracles and ascend to the papal throne.

The power of religion is not a joke, and in a sense, it is more terrifying than nuclear weapons.

Moreover, even if you don't return the Eye of the Creator to Hinduism, as one of the most famous jewels in the history of the world, it is definitely a matter of pride to be able to collect the Eye of the Creator.

Under such a premise, Ji Cheng naturally wanted to get the table lamp.

……

Leave the villa and head straight to the pawn shop.

Fortunately, it was not far away, and Ji Cheng didn't take much time to arrive.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the bearded bald boss chatting with customers about selling second-hand watches.

“…… It's $4,750 after the bus tax, and I'm only $1,500, how about that? This is a good watch, right? "Bearded bald boss sales.

Ji Cheng glanced at it, it seemed to be an Omega watch, he didn't know what the specific model was, after all, he had never bought an Omega watch, but one thing was certain, that is, the beautiful Omega watch was cheaper than Huaxia, just take the watch in front of him for 4,750 US dollars, which is equivalent to about 33,000 soft sister banknotes, and he estimated that it would be sold for more than 40,000 yuan in China.

The customer, a young man in his twenties, stared at his watch a few times, "Can it be cheaper?" ”

The bearded bald boss talked eloquently, boasting for a while, and finally the young man was full of joy and bought it at the price of 1,500 dollars.

As soon as the customer left, the bearded bald boss looked at Ji Cheng and said helplessly: "Man, I can't help it if India refuses to answer the phone." ”

He thought that Ji Cheng came to the door again, or because of Sharma.

Ji Cheng stepped forward with a smile and said, "Oh, I have already negotiated with Sharma, and he promised to sell the house to me." ”

The bearded bald boss was surprised: "Then what is the matter with you coming here to find me?" ”

Ji Cheng knew that the gems hidden in the lamp were invaluable, and if the bearded boss knew about it, I was afraid it would be difficult to get it again, so he deliberately pretended to be very curious and asked: "Oh, didn't I buy the house, but thinking back to what you said was a murderous house, I was a little worried in my heart, and I wanted to come to you to learn more about the situation." ”

The bearded bald boss saw that there were no customers in the store, so he simply didn't refuse this request, and pulled Ji Chengcheng up.

That's half an hour.

During this period, Ji Cheng has been trying his best to probe the other party's words, but he has never obtained useful information.

In the end, he didn't bother to talk nonsense, and asked bluntly, "Smith, have you ever taken anything from that house?" ”

"Hey, man, aren't you stupid? That's a murderous house! Who knows if there's a curse on what's inside, and what I'm going to do with it? The bearded bald boss said.

Ji Cheng saw that the bearded bald boss didn't look like lying, and he wondered even more.

Since there was no one in the house, and the bearded bald boss didn't take it, where did the lamp go?

It's impossible to disappear into thin air, right?

It's unlikely to think about it, after all, there is a black diamond in that lamp, there may be radiation, which will induce mental illness, if it is really taken by someone, won't it be like the previous owners of that house who went insane and killed people?

Even if there is no mental disorder killing......

Huh!

Wait!

Ji Cheng suddenly seemed to think of something.

He remembered that the Eye of the Creator was divided into three pieces, and the 67.5 carat black diamond that came out did not say anything bad, indicating that the black diamond did not radiate, and the lamp on the bedside table he saw just now was speculated to be the culprit, did it mean that the lamp on the bedside table was a radiation source? The 67.5 carat black diamond was far away from the radiation source, so it did not emit radiation.

Then, according to this reasoning, the remaining black diamond should be relatively close to the radiation source, and it carries a certain amount of radiation, but it is relatively weak, and it will not induce mental illness like the black diamond in the bedside counter lamp.

But since it has a certain amount of radiation, it will have an impact on the spirit, after all, even if the computer radiation has been for a long time, people may have a mental breakdown, not to mention that the Creator's Eye may be a thing from outer space?

It doesn't induce mental illness, but it has the potential to be debilitating?

Ji Cheng suddenly recalled the way he saw Zhu Licheng in high spirits before!

I see!

I understand!

The table lamp was taken away by Zhu Licheng!

Why?

It's very simple, that mansion was bought by Zhu Licheng's uncle before, so it seems reasonable for Zhu Licheng, as a nephew, to take a table lamp from his uncle's villa.

Whether this is the case or not, Ji Cheng is not clear, he decided to go to Zhu Licheng to verify his conjecture.

……

Come to the luxury apartment building at 740 Park Avenue.

There is a saying that describes the neighborhood in Manhattan, New York, which is full of multimillionaire neighborhoods, but only next to Central Park is the billionaire neighborhood.

The mansion where Ji Cheng lives and the east apartment building in front of him both belong to the billionaire neighborhood.

He didn't go in at once, but pondered his rhetoric.

After thinking of the excuse, Ji Cheng went to the lobby of the hotel next to him to search for some information related to feng shui, and memorized some by rote.

Subsequently, before Ji Cheng returned to the apartment building, he stepped forward to communicate with the apartment security personnel, and the security personnel took him upstairs after communicating with Zhu Licheng's family.

Knock.

The door opened, and Zhu Siguo saw Ji Cheng's enthusiastic face, "Mr. Ji, please come in, please come in." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Zhu." Ji Cheng is also very polite.

The security guards took the door and left after seeing that they did know each other.

"Sit, I'll make you a cup of tea." Zhu Siguo said politely.

Ji Cheng hurriedly stopped him and said, "You don't need to make tea, I came back to see how Uncle Zhu is." ”

"Oh, my dad." Zhu Siguo sighed and said: "Since my mother died, his mental state has not been very good, and he has to sleep for a long time every day, no, he just slept again, alas, I'm really worried about him." ”

"It's just because I saw that Uncle Zhu wasn't in good spirits yesterday, so I decided to come back today." Ji Cheng's face was not red, he was not panting, and he said nonsense: "I have a certain understanding of feng shui, and I wonder if Uncle Zhu's situation is a feng shui problem." ”

Zhu Siguo seems to be quite comfortable with this, "Yo, true or false?" Mr. Ji will help you take a look. ”

"Well, I'll see."

Ji Cheng pretended to walk around the house.

Zhu Siguo followed behind and asked, "How?" ”

Ji Cheng couldn't help but laugh and said, "How can you see anything so quickly?" ”

"That's just as well." Zhu Siguo sneered.

Ji Cheng definitely doesn't understand feng shui, but it doesn't prevent him from putting where to pretend to compare, and his mouth is talking nonsense about some so-called feng shui layouts that seem to be on the Internet, "Generally speaking, the stove in the kitchen should not be facing the door, otherwise it will not be good for the hostess......"

"Huh? My kitchen seems to be a bit towards the door. Zhu Siguo replied with a reply, "No wonder my mother is not in good health after giving birth to me, and the co-authorship is because of feng shui problems?" ”

"Ahem, it's possible, but it's not absolute." Ji Cheng continued to talk nonsense, "The stove in the kitchen can't be against the bedroom door, which will cause the master to lose harmony and be short-tempered." ”

How can Zhu Siguo understand this, as soon as he heard what Ji Cheng said, he immediately said: "Ouch, Brother Ji, you know so much." ”

Ji Cheng said modestly: "I understand a little, and it's not worth mentioning a little bit about it." ”

The two chatted, and Ji Cheng told all the feng shui knowledge he had memorized from the Internet, and Zhu Siguo was stunned.

was chatting, and suddenly came to a bedroom, Zhu Siguo's voice was lowered, "This is my father's bedroom, he is sleeping, let's be quieter." ”

"Well, you gently open the door and I'll take a look." Ji Cheng said with a wink.

"Okay."

Zhu Siguo cautiously pushed open the door, and then whispered: "You are light-handed, my dad will be very short-tempered if he doesn't rest, and I will be scolded." ”

"Okay." Ji Cheng answered, and didn't approach the bedroom, just stood at the door and looked in the direction of the bed, wanting to see if the lamp was there, if it was, it should be in Zhu Licheng's bedroom.

Sure enough!

A familiar lamp is on the bedside table!

it!

The table lamp is really here!

Ji Cheng's eyes widened suddenly, and at the same time, he felt a dilemma in his heart, although he saw the table lamp, but what is this someone else's thing, how can he get it?

Scam?

It seems a bit unreasonable.

But if you tell the truth, it will cost you a lot of money to get this table lamp.

Ji Cheng fell into deep thought all of a sudden.

Zhu Siguo looked at him and was silent for a long time, and asked, "Brother Ji, is there anything wrong?" ”

Ji Cheng said casually: "Oh, the placement of that table lamp is not very good......"

He originally wanted to say that "the table lamp should be placed next to the head of the bed, but not directly facing the person's head, otherwise it is easy to cause the light to go straight to the human eye, and for a long time, it will make people feel dazzling and mentally disturbed", these are all from the information seen on the Internet.

But what Ji Cheng didn't expect was that before he finished speaking, Zhu Siguo's face suddenly changed, "You said there was a problem with this table lamp?" When you say that, I think of something. ”

Ji Cheng was stunned for a moment, "What?" ”

"I don't know if that's the case, because I was so young." Zhu Siguo's face was solemn and said, "Do you remember that my father told you and Uncle Ji that my second grandfather came to live in my house for a while, right?" ”

"Yes." Ji Cheng nodded.

"Hmm." Zhu Siguo explained: "I heard my dad say, when my dad and my mom went to the second grandfather's villa to pack up the clothes for their old couple, my mom saw that the lamp in the study was still on, it would change color, and I thought it was very interesting, and then my dad spoiled my mom, so he took this lamp back directly, and my second grandfather informed me, my second grandfather has always treated my dad as a son, and it is naturally nothing to take a lamp, and since then, this lamp has been placed in my parents' bedroom, It used to be placed on the bedside table where my mother slept, but after my mother died, my father thought that this lamp was my mother's favorite before her death, and in order to commemorate my mother, he took the lamp to his end and put it away. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Siguo patted his thigh, "I said that why did my mother die young, and my father was depressed after my mother's death, and it was all a problem with this table lamp?" That mansion is really evil, and everything in it can affect people? ”

Ji Cheng: "......"

You're so imaginative!

But then again, although the reason that may cause Zhu Licheng's malaise is the black diamond, isn't the black diamond hidden in the lamp, Zhu Siguo guessed correctly!

Ji Cheng saw that Zhu Licheng was so infatuated, and then thought back to the relationship between himself and Qin Xiaohui in the eighties, and his heart couldn't help but soften, yes, this table lamp is not good for Zhu Licheng's health if he stays here, he still nodded and said: "Your guess is very likely." ”

"Okay, then I'll throw the lamp away." Zhu Siguo said decisively.

Ji Cheng hurriedly stopped him and said, "Aren't you afraid that your father will lose his temper with you when he wakes up and can't see the lamp?" ”

"You have to throw away your temper." Zhu Siguo sighed: "My mother died early, I am a relative of my father in this world, and now his mental state has not been very good, if anything happens, I will really be alone, but if there is a little possibility that my father's situation will improve, I will try my best to fight for it." ”

Filial!

This kid is so filial!

Ji Chengcheng likes such a person, although he can't give up the gems in the lamp, he immediately thought of a way to compensate Zhu Siguo, "When I go down, I will help you throw the lamp down, so that you don't have to run again." ”

"Okay, thank you, Brother Ji." Zhu Siguo said and walked inside, and continued to lower his voice: "I'll go in and take out the lamp, you wait for me here for a while." ”

Ji Cheng snorted, thinking about compensating Zhu Siguo in his head.

Not long after, Zhu Siguo took the lamp and came out.

Ji Cheng took it casually, and only after seeing Zhu Siguo close the door did he speak: "Mr. Zhu...... Xiao Zhu, you don't mind if I call you that, right? ”

"Don't mind, don't mind." Zhu Siguo said with a smile: "You can worry about my father's health, and come back to give me guidance in your busy schedule, it's too late for me to thank you, how can you mind this?" ”

Ji Cheng and Zhu Siguo walked towards the living room, also showing smiling faces, "Speaking of which, my father and your mother are still old friends, so we can be regarded as brothers, right?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Zhu Siguo beckoned Ji Cheng to sit down, and said with a smile: "Then it's right for me to call you Brother Ji." ”

"Huh." Ji Cheng smiled and casually put the lamp on the coffee table, "Since you call me big brother, then I can't say that I, the big brother, don't say it, so, I'll invite you and Uncle Zhu to have a meal in the evening and talk about something by the way?" ”

Zhu Siguo agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I'll talk to him when my dad wakes up." He paused, "Brother Ji, what are you going to tell me?" ”

Ji Cheng said with a smile: "As for me, I am doing the collectibles industry in Huaxia, I opened a company, the scale is not bad, I had an autumn auction with someone before, and the total transaction volume compared to the autumn auction of Xiangjiangsu Fubi......"

"Yo, Brother Ji is amazing!" Zhu Siguo said.

"Eh, I'm not telling you this to brag about yourself." Ji Cheng waved his hand and said: "I mean, I think the collectibles industry here in the beautiful country is also worth investing in, and it just so happens that I don't have any acquaintances here, so let's think about it, pull you into the gang together, I will contribute money and your efforts, what do you think?" ”

Yes, Ji Cheng is ready to compensate Zhu Siguo, after all, he took this table lamp with twelve gems hidden, according to the value, the gems in it are worth more than 100 million US dollars, if he just takes it away, he is a little uneasy, after all, the other party is Qin Xiaohui's son, so he proposed to pay for it himself and let Zhu Siguo contribute to be a small shareholder.

And it is true that Ji Cheng has no acquaintances in the beautiful country, if he rushes into it to do pawns, who knows what trouble he will encounter, and there will be a lot less trouble with Zhu Siguo, a "local".

"Isn't that good?" Zhu Siguo is quite kind, "Although I don't know what you want to invest in, but I don't have a penny to be a partner, it is morally unreasonable, otherwise, Brother Ji, you first tell me how to invest, and then I will see if it is suitable, if it is suitable, I will also have that money, and if it is not suitable, I will not reluctantly join your shares, okay?" ”

Ji Cheng thought about it and said honestly: "What about me, I am going to invest in pawns in the beautiful country, of course, not to open one or two pawn shops, but to open a pawn company, invest millions of dollars, and specialize in the acquisition of antiques, cultural relics, watches, jewelry, etc. But one thing is for sure, it's more profitable than if you opened a second-hand store. ”

"Why don't you let me think about it, and I'll give you an answer at dinner in the evening?" Zhu Siguo was obviously moved, but he seemed to have some scruples, and he didn't agree for the time being.

Ji Cheng knew that Zhu Siguo didn't fully believe in his strength, for fear that there would be some fraud in it, this was a very normal thing, if he encountered something like pie falling from the sky, he would definitely wonder if there was a problem, "Okay, you think about it, I will prepare the contract in the evening, and then see if there is any problem and then give me an answer." ”

"Okay." Zhu Si National Road.

Ji Cheng didn't say anything more, got up and took the lamp to say goodbye.

Zhu Siguo sent him downstairs as before.

Because of Zhu Siguo's sending downstairs, Ji Cheng pretended to find a trash can and threw the lamp in, and then left directly.

Well, didn't run too far either.

Ji Cheng hid not far away and watched for a while, and made sure that Zhu Siguo was back upstairs, so he ran back to the trash can and took out the lamp from it again, and then took off all the jewelry with gems one by one, and then threw the lamp into the trash can again.

Call!

It's finally here!

Ji Cheng couldn't help but be overjoyed, according to the previous valuation of Master Cheng and Cheng Hailin, the jewels hidden in these three table lamps could bring him an extra wealth of three or four billion US dollars, not counting the two black diamonds.

Although these profits cannot be realized for the time being, and they will have to wait until the company's spring auction is held to sell them before they can get the money, these jewels will not run away as long as they are held in their hands.

He can predict what a huge fortune he can gain after the spring auction is over next year!
