Chapter 97
Xu Qing always felt that he had forgotten to talk to Cheng Yubai. She couldn't think about it for a while, but the matter hung in her mind, so she didn't pay much attention. Cheng Yubai pinched her behind the waist and told her not to think about it and concentrate on kissing.
Xu Qing thought of Xiao Qi again halfway through his kiss, and pushed Cheng Yubai away in a panic to say something. Cheng Yubai didn't give her a chance to speak, and blocked her for a while before saying that Xiao Qi would not go home tonight.
She loves cleanliness, and he doesn't want to go to the hotel, so he can only send Xiao Qi away.
Cheng Yubai doesn't feel sorry for Xiao Qi, raising apprentices for a thousand days, using it for a while, Xiao Qi can finally reflect his own value, he should be happy. Cheng Yubai grinded in Xu Qing's ear, against her legs, her body was rubbed hot, and her lips were also hot: "Don't worry, the sheets are all fresh." ”
Xu Qing scolded him: "You don't have any intentions!" ”
Cheng Yubai smiled and said late, "You can't go back." ”
He is now on the line, and the king of heaven can't stop him. Xu Qing was blushing and heartbeat when he saw it, pushed him over, turned over and sat on him: "When did you buy it?" ”
"These days."
"Which day?"
Cheng Yubai laughed at her for being clever and using the wrong place, hugged her and whispered, "No one else." ”
Xu Qing's heart palpitated.
"What's wrong?"
She shook her head and pounced on him to kiss him, Cheng Yubai said that she was a puppy and looked particularly enthusiastic tonight.
Frankly speaking, when Xu Qing lowered his head to kiss Cheng Yubai, he had a premonition in his heart, a feeling of emotion and uneasiness, until the phone kept ringing, and everything that seemed sudden became traceable.
Cheng Yubai lifted his pants to find the mobile phone that had been thrown out a long time ago, and just heard the sound of Xiao Qi banging on the door. When the phone was connected, Xiao Qi also came in and asked him, "Why don't you answer the phone?" ”
The person on the phone saw that he finally appeared, and breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If you don't answer again, I will think that something happened to you." ”
Xu Qing suddenly remembered what he had forgotten.
Cheng Yubai came in to get dressed, his shirt was crumpled, he grabbed it and put it on his body. Xu Qing saw that his face was ugly, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's okay, you sleep here, I'll deal with it first."
"I'm not sleeping."
She put on her underwear and locked the buckle. Cheng Yubai came over to help her cut her hair, caught a glimpse of the traces on her body, and was afraid that she would be too outward if she wanted to say something, and she couldn't hide this kind of thing, so she kissed her neck and said, "Qin Feng's kiln factory has exploded." ”
Xu Qing paused: "What's the matter?" How many were blown up? ”
"I don't know, I'll have to go over and see why I don't know."
"Then I'll go with you." She thought about it, took Cheng Yubai's hand before going out, and quickly hugged him, "I remembered what I was going to tell you, Qin Feng asked me to borrow money before." ”
"Qin Feng looking for you? When? ”
"After a year."
They were still partying together years ago, talking and laughing, just like before, and nothing happened. Qin Feng also joked that he planned to expand the kiln factory after the year, keeping up with Cheng Yubai's experiments. As a result, one day he suddenly came to her and said that he wanted to borrow some money.
"He said that he didn't have much cash in hand, and he couldn't turn it over, and he would pay me back when he got the money back."
"How much did he borrow?"
"Two hundred thousand."
When she visited the kiln factory before, she knew that business was not good, the firewood kiln was too unstable, and most of the people in Jingdezhen used gas kilns. The antique and money-burning Tonggong is such a small circle, and most of them also have their own kilns, even if they look for him, it is not a long-term solution. She knew that it was difficult for Qin Feng to insist, and when she heard him say that she couldn't turn around, she didn't think much about it, and directly transferred the money.
"You are co-operating in a firewood kiln, but he is short of money but he doesn't look for you, maybe he just doesn't want you to know. I hesitated several times, but I didn't say anything for fear that you would be upset. ”
Cheng Yubai nodded and hugged her back: "I know, don't worry, go and see the situation first." ”
When the two arrived at the kiln factory, they were greeted by the skyrocketing fire, and the fire department was pulling the cordon, dispersing nearby residents, and discussing the fire fighting plan. Cheng Yubai looked around and didn't see Qin Feng, but first saw Li Zi and Zhang Shuoyang on the side.
The phone was called by Li Zi, a total of more than a dozen, and Cheng Yubai only answered one. Now seeing him and Xu Qing coming over together, Li Zi naturally guessed what they were doing before.
"Why are you here?"
"The boss said that he wanted to see the kiln factory, and it happened that someone was accompanying him today, so he came for a walk after dinner, and caught up with the explosion of the kiln factory."
Li Zi knew that this was a firewood kiln built by Cheng Yubai and his friend, and once on a business trip to the mainland, she specially transferred to Jingdezhen to see Cheng Yubai, who was in the kiln factory at that time.
Zhang Shuoyang wears a tweed coat, looks in his thirties, is well maintained, wears gold-rimmed glasses, and is gentle. He said to Cheng Yubai: "You don't have to worry about me, go and deal with it." ”
Cheng Yubai nodded and went to find the person in charge.
Xu Qing was afraid of causing trouble for him, so he didn't follow. Li Zi found that the collar of Cheng Yubai's shirt was wrinkled. She is an internationally renowned antique trading supervisor, and she is very good at dealing with this kind of scene, so she came over to say hello first: "Hello, I'm Li Zi, this is my boss Zhang Shuoyang, may I ask who you are?" ”
"Hello, I'm Xu Qing."
Xu Qing's speech was as neat as she felt, and Li Zi smiled: "You guys came here together?" ”
"Hmm."
"You guys?"
"I'm sorry, I was just sleeping and I didn't hear the phone." After Xu Qing finished speaking, he pointed in a direction and said that he wanted to go over to see the situation and ask them to help.
Li Zi hadn't yet reacted from the sentence "just sleeping", and her slightly surprised expression froze on her face.
Zhang Shuoyang chuckled and said, "Cheng Yubai's girlfriend? Looks like a lot of fun. Seeing that Li Zi was depressed, he asked again, "You don't know he has a girlfriend?" ”
Li Zi quickly adjusted and said with a smile: "At least he didn't have it when he came last time." ”
"Like him?"
"Boss, I don't dare to discuss topics other than business with you before you let me get off work."
Zhang Shuoyang raised his eyebrows slightly.
He and Li Zi have known each other for many years, and from the first day she appeared at Sotheby's, his eyes were completely drawn to her. A confident and mature woman, with just the right amount of proportion, and occasionally charming cunning, his heart has been fluctuating with her for so many years, and it is not that he has not expressed his position, but a smart woman knows how to reject him without hurting his face.
What did she say at the time? Oh, saying that when she was a child, she was ordered to marry back to Jingdezhen when she first came into contact with antiques in Jingdezhen, and she would marry back to Jingdezhen in the future.
Although she knew it was an excuse, she moved out all the doll relatives, and he was naturally no longer reluctant.
The two stood for a while longer and left the scene before the fire was extinguished. Li Zi also wanted to say hello to Cheng Yubai before leaving, but she never found the opportunity, and then she thought about it, many times the opportunity is missed like this, right?
It was Xu Qing, seeing them leaving, the little strange feeling in his heart gradually disappeared.
Zhang Shuoyang looked warm, but how could there be a real spring breeze and rain in the mall? Backed by Mingcheng Capital, funny and talkative, and decisive at the same time, he has long been a legend in the industry. Li Zi has served all major auction houses, and now she is worth a lot of money, and she also gives Zhang Shuoyang a hand, which shows that the relationship between the two is not simple.
Xu Zhiliu asked her what she was thinking, and she shook her head, always feeling that the fire had started suddenly. Seeing that the fire was almost extinguished, she was ready to go to find Cheng Yubai.
The person in charge of the area was also looking for him, saying that he couldn't get through the phone and couldn't contact Qin Feng. Xu Qing felt that it shouldn't be, how could he not answer the phone at this time? Her uneasiness was quickly verified, and Cheng Yubai and Qin Feng were arguing.
"What do you say? You repeat! Cheng Yubai's voice was not too loud, and he tried his best to suppress something, as if he was afraid of attracting more people's attention, but he could hear that he was very angry.
Qin Feng also roared angrily: "You heard that, didn't you? I ordered it, I fried it with my own hands! ”
"Are you crazy? Do you know how many people out there are waiting to ask you for compensation? You just clicked, have you thought about the consequences! Cheng Yubai's voice trembled with anger, "Let's not talk about how many losses, tell me why?" Why, exactly! ”
"I don't want to do it, I can't hold it anymore."
Cheng Yubai thinks it's ridiculous, after holding on for so many years, if he can't hold it, he can't hold it, who believes it? Is this kiln missing? The burn is all burned, the cost has been put in, what good is it for him to blow up?
There is simply nothing to be done!
"You'd better be honest with me."
"Okay, then I'll be honest, it's all your good deeds! For so many days, I have been investigating antique smuggling, I thought it was nothing, but I didn't expect that the biggest fluctuation was the second-hand market. In the past, Zhang Luo couldn't open the activity that I could resell broken porcelain, but now there is no business at all, and those who took the goods have also run away, and I can't pour out a bunch of goods in my hands, and I can't get the money back, what do you let me do? ”
Qin Feng's side hustle is to fall into the master. The regular second-hand market doesn't make a lot of money, and he usually makes money on the black market. In peacetime, it was the realm of three things, and naturally there was a place for him to stay, but now the wind is tight, and the associated inventory involves many people, and he has a lot of relationships. It doesn't matter if it's three or five days, but after a few months of investigation, it seems that this situation will continue until the second half of the year, which means that his business is all in vain.
There is no money from the black market, just relying on the firewood kiln, a Pixiu who "only enters but does not leave", let him drink the northwest wind?
"You are beautiful, the Magnolia Mansion can be used to teach, your Cheng family's hundred talents are the best, and the law is on top, who doesn't know now? Any child on the road knows these eight words. Have you ever thought about me? But if you think of me even a little, you won't pretend that you haven't heard anything when I propose to expand the kiln factory after the year! ”
They were in the corner behind the kiln, both of them were ventilated, and their voices were chilling.
"It's not the first time I've mentioned it to you, how many times have I said that the firewood kiln is loaded, and if it can be included in the reform plan, the burden on my body will be much lighter, have you listened! Have you really thought about it? Anyway, if you want to teach ancient porcelain, you will definitely provide a firewood kiln environment. I have been doing firewood kilns for so many years, and I have a good reputation in the industry, but what are you afraid of with my own firewood kiln? ! But you didn't say anything about it, I waited so long, watched it operate overwhelmed for so long, and it was about to go bankrupt, and you still refused to let go. Cheng Yubai, you are not my brother at all! You haven't treated me as a brother in all these years! ”
Cheng Yubai grabbed him by the collar: "You fart!" I have long said that the meaning of commercial firewood kiln and experimental firewood kiln is not the same, the environment is different, the atmosphere is not the same, if you want to provide equipment, it is absolutely fine, but if you want to share the economic pressure through reform, or to achieve any commercial operation, it is absolutely impossible, these are two different things! ”
"Aren't you alone in the final say? In the final analysis, you are just a good face, and you are afraid that people will gossip and affect your future. Cheng Yubai, your feathers are feathers, and my feathers are not feathers? ”
He spoke harshly and sarcastically, stabbing Cheng Yu's white scalp tight.
Cheng Yubai has known him for many years, and for the first time he saw him out of control, he jumped out of everything he said, and he didn't show any mercy when he slandered people, clenching his fists and trembling all over.
"I don't treat you like a brother? Did I say a word when you resold my burned porcelain? ”
Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, and his face suddenly turned red: "You already knew?" ”
"Yes, I already knew, but I didn't say anything. Ah Feng, what have you taken me for so many years, have you wronged me? ”
Qin Feng was speechless, and an even greater humiliation swept over him.
"You knew I was in trouble, you knew I couldn't bear it, why did you still ......?"
"I invested far less money in the kiln than you did, but I never mentioned redistributing the proportion to you, just because I knew it was not easy for you. I don't say it, I think you should know it. Ask yourself, Have I done you wrong? Have I taken advantage of you? ”
"I ......"
"You don't have to say anything, I'll just ask." There are so many kilns, but he only fries the steamed bun kiln. Cheng Yubai didn't dare to think deeply, but he had to think, "Do you know that there are three Lao Zhang's porcelain plate paintings in there?" ”
One of them, a porcelain painting of the same scale, was rubbed from a painting that Lao Zhang had painted for five years, and it was planned to be exhibited. Lao Zhang has very little business, and this painting entrusts him with a lot of effort.
Qin Feng knew better than anyone else.
He didn't speak, and Cheng Yubai's heart was a little cold: "I told you, right?" The old man of Zhang Shuoyang's family will celebrate his 60th birthday this month, and I promised to make a wine warmer as a congratulatory gift, and it is also an apology for intercepting the chicken bowl cup. That wine warmer is not easy to make, the weather is the most suitable these days, and if it can't be fired this time, I don't have time to try a second time. ”
Qin Feng was silent for a long time.
Cheng Yubai couldn't hold back any longer, and stepped forward to scuffle with him.
In the night wind, Xu Qing saw Cheng Yubai's fist raise countless times, and then fall countless times, next to Qin Feng's face and slammed it on the stone brick wall.
Cheng Yubai doesn't do it often.
People who love porcelain also love hands, they can't punch, and they can't hit people, but this time he smashed the wall with one punch after another. Qin Feng heard the heavy blow, and every punch seemed to fall on him.
He finally couldn't hold it anymore and sat down panting.
When I was unhappy when I was a child, the two brothers could get back together by fighting. When they grew up, they discovered that the adult world could not withstand any tests, and once they were centrifuged, it was useless to fight no matter how many times they fought.
There have been too many betrayals and departures over the years, so much that he thought that he had long been paralyzed and would no longer feel pain because of anyone, but after one accident after another, his pain became clearer and clearer.
Later he thought that if he was a camel, then the last straw that crushed him would come sooner or later.
It's not this, it's that.
He had a hunch.
