Chapter Ninety-Six: Tracing the Trace

As soon as the middle-aged policeman left, the crowd outside quickly dispersed.

Du Lao glanced at Zhou Ming in surprise, but he didn't expect that Zhou Ming would settle things so easily.

"Let's go, Du Lao, please show me the way." Zhou Ming smiled and said indifferently.

"Okay, okay." At this time, Du Lao remembered what Zhou Ming came here for, so he didn't go to clean up the store immediately, and after closing the door, he took the little girl and Zhou Ming and walked out together.

After such an incident, he didn't dare to leave the little girl alone anymore, for fear of an accident.

Out of Dongguan Garden, Du Lao wanted to reach out to stop the car, but was stopped by Zhou Ming.

"I drove over." Zhou Ming said, leading the grandfather and grandson to his parking lot, letting them sit in the back seat, while Zhou Ming drove in front: "You can show the way." ”

The Sichuan restaurant is a little bit away, and it takes about ten minutes to drive there.

On the way, Zhou Ming casually asked about Du Lao's future plans.

"I can't stay in Dongguanyuan anymore, I plan to rent out the store and change the location." Du Lao touched the little girl's head, and his eyes were full of love: "Our grandfather and grandson depend on each other, I am an old bone that I have long looked down on, that is, Nannan, I don't want her to live in the eyes of others." ”

Although today's matter was solved by Zhou Ming, I don't know what the people nearby think, especially the jade fragment in the little girl's hand, after today's incident, it will also attract a lot of covetousness, and Du Lao moved the idea of changing places.

Even so, Du Lao was still grateful to Zhou Ming, if it weren't for Zhou Ming, the situation of their grandson would only be worse.

"That's it, Du Lao, don't open any store, I have an auction house under my name, with your rich experience, it was more than enough to be an appraiser in the past, change the environment, and the income will definitely be higher than now." Zhou Ming thought about it and said his thoughts, Qishi Yaxuan is a small storefront, and the income is actually not high.

"Don't be busy refusing all the time, it's not sympathy, but I really need such a person on my side."

"I'm so old, where do I still care about face like a young man, hehe, then thank you very much." Du Lao thought about it and agreed.

Zhou Ming did this, although there was a reason to help them, the most important thing was to value Du Lao's character and ability, he wanted Du Lao to serve, it was an appraiser in ordinary auctions, although Du Lao had not seen many high-end auction items, but for low-end auction items, his vision was still very vicious, and he should be able to do the position of appraiser.

After the development of the two auction houses, it goes without saying that there is no place for appraisers in boutique auctions, but ordinary auctions still need a lot of appraisers, and they all have different division of labor.

With a free hand, Zhou Ming called Xie Yaxue, and in a few words, he solved Du Lao's matter, and then Du Lao only needed to report.

Du Lao was grateful again and again, he didn't know about the auction houses of the two realms, otherwise he would be even more grateful. The little girl in his arms was not interested in the topic of the two at all, and lowered her head to play on her own.

The Sichuan restaurant arrived soon, Zhou Ming found a place to park the car, and took Mr. Du into the store.

"Is Xiao Tu there?" Du Lao raised his voice and shouted.

"Isn't this Lao Du, why did you have time to come." A round head poked out from inside, and he saw Du Lao at a glance.

"Wait a minute, I'll be here after this wave." After saying that, he retracted his head again.

At this time, there are not many customers in the Sichuan restaurant, only one or two tables, and one of the tables has already been eaten.

"Then let's wait a minute." Zhou Ming smiled and said, anyway, he is the shopkeeper, there are not too many things to do, but he doesn't care about waiting.

However, Du Lao was a little uneasy, after all, Zhou Ming was already the boss in his eyes, and it was a little inappropriate to let the boss wait here, but Zhou Ming said that, and he couldn't refute it.

The three of them found a clean table and sat down.

There was a tempting aroma wafting in the Sichuan restaurant, Zhou Ming didn't care much, but the little girl swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva and looked at Du Lao with a blank eye, obviously hungry.

"It's not good for us to sit still, let's get something to eat." Zhou Ming stretched out his hand to summon the waiter, and casually ordered a few of the most expensive dishes.

Half an hour later, their meal was also served, Zhou Ming sandwiched a few pieces, and then stopped eating, the taste was acceptable, and it was okay, but Zhou Ming was a little tired of his appetite by Li Youruo's exquisite craftsmanship, and now that he was not hungry, he didn't eat much.

"Yo, Lao Du, you have made a fortune, why are you willing to order such an expensive dish?" After the matter was done, the shopkeeper finally walked out, and when he saw the food on the table for three people, he was immediately stunned.

"I'm in for a treat." Zhou Ming said lightly, attracting the attention of the shopkeeper to himself.

"You are?" The shopkeeper hesitated.

"Xiao Tu, we came to you to inquire about your fellow countryman, do you remember the master who made bonsai rockeries?" Du Lao asked.

"What are you looking for him?" The shopkeeper was vigilant, if it weren't for Du Lao's presence, he really suspected that Zhou Ming had any plans.

"Here's the thing, Xiao Zhou bought a bonsai rockery from me, and I like that style very much, so I plan to buy more, but I only have one left there, and the master has already returned to his hometown, so he plans to ask." Du Lao said unhurriedly.

"That's right." With such an explanation, the shopkeeper was immediately relieved, touched his round head, and hesitated: "It's not that I don't say it, but I don't know him very well, I used to know him when I was in the market, I can't say where he lives, it seems to be a very remote small county." ”

"If you really want to look for him, go to Yinshui County, Tianfu Province to look for him, he should be very famous in that area." The shopkeeper shook his head, of course, he didn't think that Zhou Ming would really look for it, after all, it is rare to like a person's work style, so he travels thousands of miles to find it in a strange place.

"Thank you." Zhou Ming nodded, knowing that he couldn't ask more from the other party's mouth, although it was not perfect, it was also a very good clue, with a goal, he could go on this journey.

After eating, Zhou Ming settled the bill, took Old Master Du and returned to Qishi Yaxuan, and asked them to go to the auction house of the two worlds as soon as possible to report, and then left.

"Yinshui County, Tianfu Province, when you settle down for a while, you will take a trip." Zhou Ming was not in a hurry to leave immediately, and he would not rest assured until he confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the auction houses of the two realms, otherwise he would be thousands of miles away, and if something happened here, it would be too late to rush back.
