106 The origin of jade
Kong Lili couldn't wait to go out early the next morning.
The taxi pulled her to the antique market and left.
This is Pengyuan, the largest antique market in Qingzhou.
Kong Lili walked into the market, there were rows of antique buildings, and the plaques were all jade.
Early in the morning, the market is empty, and occasionally a cleaner cleans up.
The autumn wind swept in, and Kong Lili couldn't help but wrap her arms and rub them.
Following the address, she came to one of the most luxurious and imposing antique buildings in the market.
Pure green glazed tiles sparkle in the morning light, flying eaves and arches, jade carving and gold masonry, on both sides of the black background on the pillars respectively with gold lacquer crazy grass written "čŚćž Yuan Yuan is famous in the world, long ancient rhyme brilliant China." â
The middle plaque has the words "Qinggexuan".
People in the antique industry can be said to be familiar with the three words Qinggexuan, but for a layman like Kong Lili, they are confused.
She stood at the doorway and was stunned, only to feel that the building in front of her was extremely luxurious.
She looked down at the address on her phone, No. 15 Pengyuan, yes, it was indeed here.
As if to confirm her doubts, with a "squeak", the carved vermilion door opened from the inside, and suddenly a faint sandalwood came to her face.
A man in a gray coat glanced at her lightly, "Is the lady a pawn or a bargain?" â
Kong Lili hurriedly stepped forward: "You don't know me anymore?" I'm Zhou Qin's cousin, and you called me ...... last night. â
The man's eyes flashed, and after Kong Lili entered the store, the Zhu door closed heavily, isolating everything from the outside world.
Kong Lili suddenly felt that something was wrong, and subconsciously glanced back at the closed Zhu Gate.
"Don't be afraid, ladies, we're doing serious business."
Serious business is still closed in the daytime.
Kong Lili felt a little strange and said, "I want to see your manager, I said on the phone last night, I'll get the balance of my cousin's goods." â
The man nodded: "I know, I made the call." â
Kong Lili glanced at him at this time, no wonder she felt that his voice was a little familiar.
The man said: "I'm sorry, according to the regulations, the balance needs to be signed by Zhou Qin herself, if it is inconvenient for her to come, I can come to the door in person." â
Kong Lili frowned: "Can't I sign on my behalf?" â
The man shook his head: "I must sign it." â
Kong Lili didn't expect it to be so troublesome, and said irritably: "Why do you break the rules so much, I'm Zhou Qin's cousin, will I still run away with the money?" â
"The rules of our store are like this, I hope you will forgive me."
The man hung his eyelashes and looked honest.
"What kind of rulebreaking, I think you are the shopkeeper bullying, you can't rely on my cousin's final payment, right?"
Seeing that Kong Lili revealed her shrewd essence and began to splash and roll, the man frowned, ran out of patience, and waved his hand.
Two black-clothed bodyguards rushed out of the back hall, and Kong Lili was immediately frightened when she saw this battle: "You guys...... What do you want to do? Kidnapping, I'm going to call the police...... â
She trembled and tried to pull her phone out of her bag, and the bodyguards obviously wouldn't give her this opportunity.
Soon Kong Lili was tied to the chair, her eyes widened in horror, and her brain was still confused.
No matter how stupid she was, she reacted.
The person who called last night deliberately hooked her in.
But why, she has no money and no power, these people are full of food and support, kidnap her.
The man took out a sharpened dagger and played with it in his hand.
Kong Lili stared at the dagger in horror.
"I don't have that much patience, I only ask you once, where is Zhou Qin?"
Kong Lili's brain was frightened into a mess.
It wasn't until the man aimed the dagger at her neck and carotid artery that Kong Lili exclaimed, "I don't know...... I really don't know, I haven't seen her in a long time and no one answers my calls...... You can leave me alone. â
"If you don't tell the truth, I'll scratch your face."
The sharp blade was attached to her cheek, and the cold touch and the strong sense of pressure from the man made Kong Lili tremble.
She is just an ordinary person, where has she ever encountered such a thing, she has already lost her soul in fright.
The man couldn't help frowning when he saw that Kong Lili's reaction didn't seem to be fake.
He took out his mobile phone from Kong Lili's bag, unlocked it with one of her thumbs, and checked WeChat messages and contacts.
The contact with Zhou Qin was stuck a month ago.
It seems that this woman is really not lying, she really doesn't know Zhou Qin's whereabouts.
The man couldn't help but look in the direction of the back hall.
Dai Zhong sat in front of the monitor, looking at the scene happening in the lobby, frowning.
He sent someone to check on Zhou Qin, and strangely, Zhou Qin harassed her husband, who was going through a divorce, a month ago and was detained.
After being detained for half a month, she lost her trace.
It's very strange, no matter how Dai Zhong checks, this woman seems to have disappeared out of thin air, and there is no trace of her.
In the information age, there are surveillance cameras everywhere, and if a person wants to disappear completely, it is impossible to do it easily, unless there is a helper behind it.
For example, a technologically powerful hacker can erase all traces without realizing it......
This reminded him of the yellow-haired boy that the group was tracking, and he disappeared out of thin air.
Of course, Dai Zhong hasn't connected the two yet, but he just thinks it's a little strange.
The origin of that piece of jade is not only closely related to finding the damn yellow-haired boy, but now it has attracted the attention of Mrs. Liu.
He must find out as soon as possible.
Dai Zhong tapped his finger on the tabletop and said in a deep voice, "Ask her where the jade came from." â
The man received the order in the headset and immediately looked at Kong Lili.
The moment he looked over, Kong Lili subconsciously trembled.
The man took out his mobile phone, called up a photo, and showed it to Kong Lili.
"Do you know?"
Kong Lili shook her head: "I don't know." â
"You see it carefully, don't you really know?"
The man's low tone carried a suffocating warning.
Kong Lili had a flash of inspiration in her head, and finally strung all this together.
She suddenly screamed: "This is the jade that Zhou Qin deserved, right?" â
The man narrowed his eyes: "She mentioned it to you?" â
Kong Lili finally understood that feelings were all caused by this piece of jade.
She was afraid that the man in front of her would be unhappy and click on her, so she immediately told everything she knew about this piece of jade.
"This piece of jade was stolen by Zhou Qin from her eldest sister's coffin."
The woman's sharp, urgent voice stabbed and pierced the air.
The cold wind beat against the window, inexplicably causing the people in the room to break out in a cold sweat.
Dai Zhong's eyes narrowed slightly.
In the lobby, the woman couldn't wait to explain everything.
Twenty minutes later, the vermilion gate creaked open a crack.
Kong Lili stumbled out, she was completely depressed, looked back at the black and gold plaque, and only felt a cold air rushing up from the soles of her feet.
Thinking of the man's cold warning, she couldn't help but shudder, wrapped her coat tightly, and fled in a panic.
In a hidden corner, a dark shadow was hidden in the shadows where the sun could not shine, and a pair of sharp eyes stared at the back of the woman leaving.
"Young Master, there is news about the source of that jade plate."
~
At the same time, the VIP lounge of Qingzhou Airport.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, there is an endless tarmac, and the blue sky is endless as far as the eye can see.
In the single sofa, the woman leisurely flipped through a fashion magazine, and the celadon teacup next to her was fragrant.
The assistant stood aside, holding a tablet in his hand, reporting the news.
In the sofa not far away, the boy bowed his head, holding a touch capacitive pen in his hand, and the tip of the pen swiped quickly on the tablet.
The young man sits in a regular posture, has a handsome face, and his expression is also very serious.
Far away, just a silhouette, people have to be admired by the demeanor of the teenager.
If you get close, you can see that the boy is brushing the question, and the pen is written without the slightest pause, but if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that the tips of the teenager's ears are stirring.
While the accuracy of brushing questions is extremely high, he is also distracted by the conversation not far away.
It's a double purpose.
After writing the last question and submitting the test paper, a full screen of ribbons will appear on the screen, and the system will prompt a full score.
The young man did not have the slightest pride, and his face was still expressionless.
"This time I went to Jingzhou to celebrate Mrs. Yu's birthday, but I can't go home empty-handed."
The corners of the woman's lips twitched into a smile, and her eyes shone brightly.
The assistant pondered his words: "I heard that Old Madam Yu likes antiques the most, and she especially loves Qingguo vase, which has a history of more than 1,000 years, I believe that Old Madam Yu will definitely like it." â
That's right, the Nine Dragons Cloud Sea Vase that Helian Yu asked Mrs. Luo to shoot for her was the birthday gift she was going to give to Old Madam Yu.
Helian Yu pulled his lips, and there was mockery in his eyes: "The vase that is useless in the middle is something that has been appreciated and played with for a lifetime, but it is also in line." â
The assistant looked around cautiously, "Madam, be cautious." â
Helian Yu sneered: "Don't worry, the Yu family's hand hasn't grown enough to reach here." â
However, she was born in a drama, and it was her turn to come out when the main house collapsed, and Helian Yu looked down on the old woman from the bottom of her bones.
Liyuan sang a big drama for three days, and now she is in the sky, for fear that others will not know her origin, even if she turns over, she still can't change the little family spirit in her bones.
However, it was such a humble background, but he mastered the center of the Yu family and stepped on the head of the wealthy in Jingzhou.
Helian Yu deeply understands the truth of feng shui in turns, so she must take precautions, she has stayed enough in Qingzhou, and she must seize this opportunity to operate well......
Helian Yu's gaze turned and fell on the young man.
The corners of his lips were slightly curved, and there was a bit of arrogance in his eyes.
"Xi'er, looking at the electronic screen for a long time, it's not good for your eyes, take a break and talk to your mother."
Liu Yunxi was indifferent, and said without raising his head: "The day after tomorrow is a physics competition." â
"Mom believes that with your strength, there will be no problems."
"The eldest lady of the Yu family, do you remember? Take advantage of this opportunity to ....... â
"Smack." The boy put down the tablet and looked up quietly.
Those dark eyes looked at her calmly, without waves, like a bottomless pool, as if they had insight into all her thoughts.
The slightly hooked corners of his lips seemed to be a silent mockery, extremely cold.
Helian Yu's heart was shocked.
I don't know when her son became so strange.
"In the future, you will eventually know that my mother did all this for your own good."
The young man bowed his head again, full of indifference that no one approached, and turned a deaf ear to Helian Yu's chatter.
At this time, the assistant respectfully handed the mobile phone to Helian Yu: "Madam, your phone." â
Helian Yu glanced at the caller ID and put it in his ear.
I don't know what the person in the phone said, Helian Yuliu frowned, and his face fell into contemplation.
"Keep tracking, the one named Shen Li, I must know all his information."
The tips of the silent boy's ears suddenly moved.
There was a knock at the door, followed by the respectful voice of the staff.
"Ma'am, it's time to board."
Helian Yu hung up the phone, gathered the shawl on his body, and got up.
The assistant followed suit.
Seeing that the young man took the initiative to stand up and put the tablet into his schoolbag, Helian Yu hooked his lips with satisfaction.
Xi'er is still obedient.
He may have reached that youthful rebellious period now, and sooner or later he will know her good intentions.
Liu Yunxi followed behind Helian Yu, and under the guidance of the staff, boarded the plane through a special channel and entered the first class.
The positions of the two were next to each other, and after sitting down, the boy took out the tablet and began to brush the questions as if no one was around.
Helian Yu was a little pleased with his hard work, but at the same time distressed.
Eventually, he sighed and placed a cup of hot tea on the table beside him.
At this time, through the window, you can see that the passengers in economy class have started to board.
The two cabins, the class is a world of difference.
Helian Yu retracted his gaze lightly, and began to twist his eyebrows to think about the news he had just gotten on the phone.
Liu Yunxi suddenly frowned and put down the capacitive pen in his hand.
Helian Yu noticed Liu Runxi's movements, and immediately asked worriedly, "Xi'er, where are you uncomfortable?" â
Liu Yunxi shook his head: "I'm fine, it's just that my stomach hurts a little, maybe I ate something." â
After the words fell, he pulled open the baffle and got up: "I'll go to the bathroom." â
Hurried away.
Helian Yu frowned, his eyes fell on the mobile phone and tablet on the table, and then he relaxed and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Twenty minutes later, a sweet female voice began to prompt the precautions before the plane was about to take off.
Helian Yu suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the position next to him.
Yoo Yun-hee hasn't come back yet.
Thinking of something, Helian Yu stood up suddenly: "Can't fly." â
The flight attendant hurriedly came: "Madam, the plane is about to take off, please sit down, fasten your seat belts and ......." â
"Fly what fly, my son hasn't come back yet."
The flight attendant was stunned, knowing that the other party's identity was extraordinary, and he didn't dare to be perfunctory.
"Madam, this gentleman was unwell twenty minutes ago and had already dismounted, didn't he tell you?"
Helian Yu's first reaction was that Liu Yunxi had an accident and was about to order the plane to be grounded, when her mobile phone suddenly rang.
Seeing the caller ID, Helian Yu couldn't wait to connect: "Xi'er......." â
"Have a nice trip."
Short six words, endless indifference.
Without a word of nonsense, he hung up the phone conveniently.
Helian Yu's face was gloomy, and his cold eyes swept over the mobile phone and tablet on the table next to him, as well as the schoolbag that the young man was carrying.
She suddenly sneered, startling the flight attendant next to her.
"Madam, the plane is about to take off, please sit in your seat, fasten your seatbelts and ......."
The flight attendant boldly reminded.
Helian Yu sat down again, and returned to the dignified and elegant lady she had been.
Just grasping the handrail's whitened finger bones revealed the anger in her heart.
