C174 The Zheng Family! The Zheng Family!

The eerily shaped lamp is only one of them.

Wu Huai only glanced at those things for a moment before shaking his head and telling me that unless I met someone who was obsessed with those things, there really wasn't much value in collecting them.

Of course I know that.

Staring at the strangely shaped Scepter, Wu Huai's eyes gradually went from being calm at the start to losing his composure, and then they became filled with disbelief. When he trembled his hands and grabbed onto the heavy Scepter in his hands, his eyes were filled with unquenchable waves of shock.

"This... "This …" "Wu Huai turned his head and looked at me." "This is …!?"

"Whatever you want, it is what you want." I dropped my papers on the coffee table and settled back into the sofa.

Wu Huai remained silent. I think he didn't know what to say to express his shock.

After a long time, he finally opened his mouth with great difficulty and said, "Mrs. Zheng can create another storm."

"I shook my head. At the beginning, I had the same thoughts as Wu Huai." There's something wrong with the origin of this thing. "

"Can't meet anyone?" Wu Huai looked at me and said, "We can make up a flawless story about it." His brain was obviously working at a high speed, and he quickly came up with a feasible plan for me.

In this business, everyone with a bit of achievement was an expert in deceit. I looked at Wu Huai and suddenly thought of something that only the devil would say.

I shook my head. "Slowly! Let's not rush with this matter yet."

"That's true. Right now, we haven't completely digested the effects of the dreams." Wu Huai shook his head, as if he was trying to throw out the influence this scepter had on him from his mind.

"What about dreams?" When Wu Huai mentioned this, I remembered that I hadn't heard news of that treasure for a long time.

Wu Huai happily told me, "We adjusted the structure of the main hall and reserved a special exhibition hall there. Nanke and Yimeng have already become the Zheng Family's signboard."

Nodding my head, I replied, "I'll go over to take a look. I've been busying myself these past few days and have almost lost my original job." As I spoke to Wu Huai, I wondered if I should set up some of the rules set by the Zheng family. However, I thought better of it. The current Zheng family couldn't afford to go through all of this, otherwise, within a year, I would be completely broke.

Huang San and Huang Si sat in the room at the other end of the courtyard and looked around, seemingly a little restrained.

I looked at these two fellows who, in less than a year, had become completely different. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

A single coincidence could unknowingly change the fate of two or more people.

"San-er, Si Er? How have you been recently? " When Wu Huai left, I asked him to call Huang San and Huang Si over. Both of his bodies were already beginning to look useful.

"Hehe!" Isn't it just like that? " After a long time that I haven't met, Huang San looked at me with even more gratitude and reverence, but Huang Si still acted as if he was careless, sometimes touching here, sometimes touching there. He seemed to be full of curiosity about everything here.

"San'er, you're getting more and more slippery!" I jokingly said a few words before looking at Huang Si and saying, "Si Er, tell me."

Huang Si scratched his head and said: "Not bad. It's just that I wasn't used to it in the beginning. "

"You'll get used to it after a while. However, if the two of you want to relax in the future, it's not very likely."

Wu Huai told me that after Huang San and Huang Si got to know each other better in Chang An, he was prepared to place additional burdens on the two of them and let them take care of a counter for themselves. He probably wanted to bring along these two fellows who didn't know a thing about the affairs of Chang An half a year ago.

However, the most precious thing was that Huang San and Huang Si were actually very hardworking. During their time in the Weicheng, they practically went all out, using all sorts of related things to enrich their own brains. Huang San was somewhat ambitious, but Huang Si was doing it purely to repay one.

If thinking with his simple brain, those four words could be described as "Zheng gave us the chance, we can't do anything that would embarrass Zheng."

"Alright, you guys go ahead. Work hard, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future." Right, find some time to bring the two elders back to Chang An. From today onwards, you will only have less and less time to return, so you can't leave the two elders alone. "

"Ai, alright. I'll tell them about it later." Huang San nodded in agreement, then pulled Huang Si away.

On the morning of the next day, I brought Fan Cunhu to stroll around the White Horse Temple. This time, I didn't see the Old Cube who seemed to be able to guess when I would go to the temple. Standing in the buddhist hall, I quietly listened to the chanting of the monks, and then went to the ancient shop.

Although they were just two or three customers, but for this business, this was already considered not bad. The shop assistant treated me as a guest and politely introduced me to the history of the objects and the stories surrounding them.

Of course, most of them were fabricated, and on the shelf that held the Old Object, there were actually rare and exquisite items. However, the shop assistant's words were quite interesting, so I told him about it with great interest.

Just as Wu Huai had said, the structure of the Ancient Street had greatly changed. When I first came in, I even thought that I had walked into the wrong place and was even allowed to exit to look at the signboard.

After looking around, a customer walked in. Looking at his clothes, he seemed to be an ordinary person. In his arms was something that was covered by a flowery cloth, and his expression was somewhat uneasy.

"Bro, do you accept antiques here?" The man looked at the other man and asked in a low voice.

The clerk sized up the man and said, "Take it. What did you bring over?"

The man smiled embarrassedly. His eyes were still perturbed as he lifted the cloth covering the item, revealing a blue and white porcelain teapot hidden under the cloth.

"Do you think this is worth a lot of money? I want to sell it. "

"Yo!" We don't dare to tell you about this. Guest, please wait a moment, I'll call the mister from our store and have him give you a round of applause. " The shop assistant was extremely polite, not showing a single trace of impatience due to the lack of clothes on his face.

The man quickly nodded and said, "Alright, sorry for the trouble."

Very soon, a forty year old man in a Chinese tunic walked out from the back of the store behind the shop assistant.

He first sized up the man and slowly said, "Let me see what it is first."

"Sigh!" "Sorry for the trouble." The old gentleman appeared to be in good shape, but the man seemed to be somewhat more at ease. Once again, he revealed half of the blue and white porcelain teapot in his hand.

He reached out and touched the missing spout of the teapot. Perhaps he noticed my gaze on them, so he pulled the cloth down again and said to the man, "How about this, shall we go inside?"

"Ai ai!" "Alright!" "Yes, sir." The man agreed, then carefully followed the gentleman to a separate Treasure Hall.

"Bro, your privacy protection is pretty good!" Looking at this chain of events, I said a few words of praise.

The shop assistant politely replied, "Of course. Our store is not like other stores. Go ask around, customer. The name of the Zheng family in Chang'an is well-known! Not to mention anything else, just our secret measures, tsk tsk! " The clerk gave him a thumbs up and said, "Perhaps you don't know? A few days ago, during the new year celebration, both Chen Ji and Liu Li's guests suffered a setback. Their front legs sold goods, so when they went out the door, they were robbed. "

"Oh? "There's such a thing?" I asked in astonishment.

The employee replied with an expression that seemed to say that even you didn't know what was going on, "Isn't that so? "It's all the fault of money. It's said that our Chang An has a gang outside the city that specializes in monitoring the various antique shops. Once someone sells a treasure for a high price, it will attract their attention."

"Hey!" However, you must not speak of this. The bosses of the two families will suppress this matter. I saw you were being nice, so I offered you a favor. Otherwise, everyone does a business where they don't even look up, and borrowed their short faces to look bad, don't you think? "Yo, you have a good eye, customer. This thing has quite the background. This is the white porcelain bowl used by Emperor Chong Zhen of the Great Ming Dynasty. It is very precious." The shop assistant gave me a mysterious reply. When he saw me pick up a white porcelain bowl from the shelf and examine it, he flattered me and tried to trick me into buying it.

I looked at the imitation in my hand and said to the shop assistant, "Did Emperor Chong Zhen use it? This is too expensive, I'm afraid I can't afford it. "

How could that be!? "How about this, since we've been through life together, and I can chat with someone as understanding as you, I'll make the decision and give you a 10% discount?"

"Hmm? You can make the decision? " I looked at the pretty shop assistant in astonishment.

The assistant said, "I'm using my own commission to paste this on you. If it's something that's sold from my hands, I'll have a 50% discount. This is all yours."

This was a new explanation. I looked at the shop assistant and asked, "How much is this item?"

The shop assistant said, "Three thousand, I'll give you a 90% discount. And it's also free to match a box of our Zheng family, absolutely magnanimous. If you are not safe, as long as you are in our Changan territory, we will escort you there. "

"Never mind, it's too expensive. Let me take a look." I said, smiling.

A hint of disappointment appeared on the face of the shop assistant, but it only lasted for a moment. Mrs. Zheng should be the only one in the business with such a service attitude, to say nothing of anything else.

The man who had just entered walked out of the room very quickly. He was still holding the blue and white porcelain teapot, and the flowery cloth was still tightly wrapped around it.

From the look of his dejected eyes, the thing in his arms was most likely a fake. This kind of look of disappointment, not just in Chang'an, even I have seen it in the Weicheng's Madam Zheng's eyes. Furthermore, I personally turned the hope in their eyes into disappointment.

At first, I didn't pay much attention to him, but the lost man clearly didn't notice me standing in the hall. He directly crashed into my body before reacting to my words and hurriedly apologised.

"It's fine, brother. Please be at ease. I took a look at the teapot from afar just now. It was pretty good." Actually, it would be quite interesting to put it at home as a decoration, right? "

I tapped the teapot in his hand.

But it doesn't matter if I don't shoot, as soon as I come into contact with this thing, waves of coldness rush out from my body.

The sticky red color was definitely stained with red!
