Ghost Eye Merchant Reborn

Deputy Director Xu frowned, his eyes darkened, and he stared at Tang Ling dissatisfied, "Why are you laughing?"

Tang Ling raised her eyebrows slightly, "Did he just say that a group of gangsters beat up Captain Wu?" She pointed at the forest with a hint of disdain in her eyes!

"That's right!" Lin Zi said seriously with a straight face!

He put away the smile on his lips, turned his head to the other side, and turned his fingers, "Those gangsters you mentioned are squatting in the corner now. Instead of arresting them, you beat up Dihao's people. What does this mean?"

"

Deputy Director Xu was also stunned. He looked at the row of gangsters squatting in the corner, and looked at Lin Zi in confusion. What on earth is going on? Didn't he beat the gangster? Why did he change to Dihao's person?

Lin Zi stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say, yes! He was really confused, the people they beat just now were not Dihao's people!

"As a police officer, you don't distinguish between friend and foe, and you beat someone up without asking the reason. Is this called 'violent law enforcement'?" Tang Ling tapped her red lips with her index finger, looking like she was thinking about something!

Deputy Director Xu was shocked. This was indeed troublesome. They were only beating gangsters. Fortunately, it was difficult to beat Dihao's people without asking the reason! You must know that Dihao can gain a foothold in S City. He must have a backstage!

What's more, it's a delicate period for a new mayor to take office. It would be bad if the new officials take office and use the pretext of "violent law enforcement" to burn them!

"What did you do? Did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? I really doubt how you handled the case after so many years!" Deputy Director Xu scolded.

In this situation, we can only stabilize Dihao first, teach Lin Zi and the others a lesson, and make the people of Dihao feel more comfortable! To avoid causing trouble!

"Yeah! I doubt it too! I wonder how many unjust cases have been solved!" Tang Ling nodded, fully agreeing!

Deputy Director Xu's face became very hot after hearing this, and his expression became a little helpless. Director Shen's face was cold and he remained silent!

"Who is the person in charge here?" Deputy Director Xu turned to Feng San and the others and asked.

Feng San was also holding his breath. He sat on the sofa without getting up, and his face was filled with tears, "I am! What's wrong? You want to 'violate law enforcement' again?"

Feng San is really good at learning and selling now! After hearing Tang Ling’s “violent law enforcement” just now, he immediately moved it over and used it!

Deputy Director Xu twitched the corner of his mouth, took a deep breath and said, "It was our unit police officers who made a mistake today. We will take those gangsters back and we will compensate for the losses at Dihao!"

"Compensation?" Feng San sneered, "Then how do you compensate? What Deputy Director Xu means is that our Dihao people were beaten in vain?"

Deputy Director Xu was a little angry. As a deputy director of the branch, if he could tolerate compensation today, it was already the bottom line. Do you really think that he, the deputy director, was just a freeloader?

"Do you still want to fight back? Huh! Don't forget, the injuries to these police officers were all caused by you!" Deputy Director Xu said in a bad tone. Do you really think they dare not touch you, Di Hao?

"What we call self-defense!" Lei Zi hugged his chest and said ruthlessly. He heard this from the boss, so it is just right for this!

"Hmph! Don't push yourself too far! Apology and compensation are the biggest concessions we can make. Don't think about anything else!" Deputy Director Xu is famous for his hot temper. It is rare to be like this today!

Tang Ling kept staring at Director Shen. Director Shen remained silent, fearing that he was weighing the pros and cons. After hearing Deputy Director Xu’s words, Director Shen relaxed slightly, and Tang Ling naturally caught it!

He murmured seemingly casually, "When I came up just now, I seemed to see a few newspaper editors having a dinner together. I wonder if they have finished eating? Hey! People with sensitive sense of smell!"

Director Shen was shocked and looked up at Tang Ling. He had dealt with Tang Ling several times and he was not sure about Tang Ling's identity. It was not that he had not investigated. The result of the investigation was nothing more than a student from No. 1 Middle School and his parents. She was an ordinary worker. The only thing that surprised him was that Wu Guangyuan was her uncle!

But there was no news at all about the news he wanted to know!

Hearing that there were media personnel here, Deputy Director Xu also fell silent. The biggest fear of this kind of thing is to make a big fuss. It's fine in this private room now. If outsiders find out, I'm afraid the situation will be bad! And media figures have always been sensitive group!

There was an unusual silence in the private room for a while. Lin Zi couldn't hold himself still and spoke first!

"We were the ones who beat them. What happened today is that we made a mistake. The worst we can do is to have you fight back! We brothers are not the ones who can't handle things! This matter has nothing to do with our team, it is purely our personal behavior! "

As a result, Feng San invited Shen Ju and others out, and there were bursts of fighting sounds in the private room! After a while, Lin Zi and others came out, their faces were fine, but their bodies were in trouble!

Feng San and the others were also sweaty, and they admired Lin Zi's actions. Since ancient times, how could any policeman voluntarily let others beat him? Wu Guangyuan's words were beautiful, but they were just words, just to win sympathy! Lin Zi and the others were beaten, Wu Guangyuan didn't participate! When Bureau Shen and the others left, they followed him out of the private room!

Feng San and the others also held back and did not use any cruelty. Lin Zi and the others also knew this, so in this fight, not only did the two sides not become enemies, but they actually felt some sympathy for each other!

When no one was paying attention, Lei Zi interrogated those gangsters from the Qing Gang, got what he wanted, and let Bureau Shen take it away!

The whole thing is over, but Wu Guangyuan is probably going to be punished internally. After all, he was the cause of the incident. He was not fired because of his many years of experience. However, he was demoted, and Lin Zi was promoted to Captain! No one expected this!

Lei Zi learned from those gangsters that these Qinggang people were indeed here to cause trouble, but not for Dihao, but for Zhenbaozhai. They heard that Zhenbaozhai was going to hold a year-end banquet at Dihao, and it was not easy for them to come. I played here once. I originally wanted to have enough fun first and then go find trouble with Zhenbaozhai. Unexpectedly, I got into a fight with the Dongcheng team because of a girl sitting on the stage!

It is estimated that Tang Ling's castration of their companions served as a deterrent. Those gangsters revealed that the person who instigated them was Wang Ping! They were only at the bottom of the Qing Gang and could only be regarded as nominal, and Wang Ping looked very good in the Qing Gang. They had status, so Wang Ping asked them to do things. They wanted to flatter him, so they agreed, but they didn't expect it to end up like this!

Tang Ling just sneered after hearing this. Wang Ping really refused to give up. The last time Wang Ping asked Liu Xueyong for help, he was rejected. Now he dares to use people from the Qinggang to cause trouble!

"Boss, do you want us to settle the matter with Wang Ping?" Feng San and the others are insiders to the grievances between Zhenbaozhai and Wang Ping. They were hired by Wang Ping to cause trouble!

"No, third brother, you just need to tell the Qinggang about this matter, and the Qinggang people will naturally solve it! Remember, we don't do business at a loss!"

"Okay, I know how to do it!" Feng San nodded. Over the years, he has gotten to know Tang Ling a little bit. Even though she is young, her ability to scheme with people is not just for bragging!

"Boss, which newspaper editor-in-chief came to Dihao for dinner today? Why didn't I know?" Lei Zi said suspiciously. You have to make a reservation in advance to come to Dihao. He didn't remember that there was a newspaper editor-in-chief who made a reservation today!

Tang Ling blinked her innocent eyes and shrugged, "I said it seemed like it, but I didn't say it was definitely it!"

puff!

Lei Zi looked at Tang Ling speechlessly, he knew that these people had been raped by the boss!

Feng San has long been used to it, and he likes the boss's temper. Now looking back on the past days, he feels that his life was in vain! He was too hesitant to do things, and he was not as happy as he is now. Following the boss as a profiteer, he was as happy as a god!

Tang Ling saw that the two of them were still interested in winning. Although she fought back, she was still depressed! There was still a long way to go, but she couldn't lose her troops every time! It seemed that she had to plan carefully!

"Boss! You don't have to be sad! Our injuries are minor and they will be fine in two days! Besides, didn't we fight back?" Lei Zi could tell by looking at Tang Ling's expression that she was worried about their injuries!

Tang Ling just nodded and ordered to Feng San, "Third brother, each of the brothers who were beaten tonight will receive 50,000 yuan in medical expenses. Give them a few days off and come back to work after they recover!"

"Yes, boss!"

Although the boss is a "profiteer", he is very generous to his subordinates! A dozen brothers were injured tonight, which costs hundreds of thousands! Tang Ling didn't even blink an eye!

Tang Ling told her family that she would make up for classes tonight, and seeing that it was getting late, she left Dihao first! Before leaving, Tang Ling asked Feng San to take stock of the losses and go directly to the Dongcheng Branch tomorrow to ask for the account!

Feng San chuckled, the cunning look in his eyes was quite like Tang Ling's! The boss really understood him! He was the best at settling accounts and stuff like that!

Early the next morning, Feng San took the list and ran to the door of the Dongcheng branch. He met Lin Zi and several people, and even greeted them cordially. Maybe this is what is often said, no acquaintance without fighting!

When Bureau Shen got the claim list, his face looked so ugly!

20,000 for a bottle of red wine? 120,000 for an LCD screen? 5,800 for a broken piece of clothing, 12,000 for a watch? 35,000 for a crystal coffee table?

After reading each item one by one, Director Shen's face turned dark. Not counting medical expenses, the compensation alone was nearly 600,000 yuan. In Feng San's words, this was still a discounted friendship price!

Director Shen never expected that he had lost 140,000 yuan just by smashing it like that last night! He suddenly felt a pain in his body!

"We're talking about compensation, not being ripped off by you!" Director Shen's face turned a little gloomy. It's impossible for them to compensate for such a large amount of money!

Feng San just laughed after hearing this and said patiently, "Bureau Shen may not know that the bottle of red wine is from Bordeaux in 1996, and the purchase price is 21,000! The LCD screen was flown back from Germany, not counting the travel expenses.

Just 120,000! I dare say that our Emgrand is definitely the first entertainment venue with LCD screens in China! As for clothes and watches, you know that in our industry, we must dress fashionably, so for those few

The products my brothers buy are all international famous brands, but the prices are a bit high!"

Looking at Director Shen's uncertain face, Feng San knew that today's account would definitely come back! But it doesn't matter, I didn't really plan to do it in the first place!

Feng San smiled again, "Although it was caused by the Youth Gang, it happened to our Emgrand after all. In order to show our sincerity, this compensation should be regarded as comfort money for several members of the police force!"

Director Shen was relieved to hear that there was no need to compensate, but when Feng San said that the six hundred thousand yuan was used as comfort money, he still had some concerns in his heart! This was not a small amount, and Director Shen understood clearly that this was what Dihao was saying to them. Dongcheng detachment shows goodwill!

Now they are riding a tiger and cannot get off. They will definitely not be able to pay for the more than 600,000 yuan. If they don't compensate, they will be in the Emgrand camp in disguise!

This is the most frustrating stand-up ever!

Today's goal was achieved, Feng San didn't stay for long, but before leaving, he seemed to have accidentally added, "The guy who took the lead in beating me yesterday is good, he is a sweat! When something goes wrong, he knows to shoulder it on himself! There is a future. !”

Lin Zi later learned that he had been promoted to captain after making a mistake because of Feng San's words! Sometimes the turning point in life is just a word from someone else!

By the time he realized this, he had already reached a high position, a high position that he could not imagine!

In the morning, Tang Ling went to the tutoring class and happened to meet Section Chief Ma who went to find her and left a room for the two of them. Yang Feng and the others continued to study the education plan!

Chief Ma came here mainly to tell her that the friend from the industrial and commercial department has been contacted, and she can take Tang Ling to have a meal with him this weekend!

After setting the time and place, Chief Ma left in a hurry, saying that he had something else to do, but from the nail scratches on the back of Chief Ma's neck, Tang Ling knew that it must be something related to a woman, but she didn't know which woman it was. !

After exchanging a few words with Yang Feng and the others, Tang Ling and Lei Zi went to the future base of Huaxia Education, which is the teaching building near the City Hall Square!

Listening to the progress reported by Lei Zi, Huaxia Education can officially start at the beginning of the next semester. This makes her very satisfied. After the beginning of the next semester, it will be the time for the high school and college entrance examination, and Huaxia Education can make a name for itself!

Because a hospital was built on this building before, the stairs are already fully mature and can be put into use as long as the interior is renovated!

The lobby has not yet been renovated. The offices and teaching rooms will be renovated first. The lobby is spacious and suitable for consultation and reception. After taking a rough look at the design of each room, Tang Ling was very satisfied.

"Have you heard that according to our country's latest policy, workers are all going to be laid off? There will be no more iron rice bowls in the past!" Just in time for lunch, a group of decoration workers gathered together for lunch and started chatting. Tang Ling heard.

"Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. I used to envy the people in the city who had iron rice bowls and no worries about food and drink. If the iron rice bowls were gone, they would probably not be as good as me!"

"No, at least we are considered skilled people. If we have work to do, we won't starve to death, but those in the city will be miserable. What will we do if we don't have the skills!"

"Why are you thinking so much! It has nothing to do with us, and we are not leading cadres. We have to consider what others will do in the future! Anyway, as long as we can survive!"

Tang Ling stopped unconsciously. Listening to these migrant workers chatting, Lei Zi felt a little strange, "Boss, what's wrong?"

After retracting her thoughts, Tang Ling shook her head, "Check when the layoff policy will be officially implemented, and hurry up!"

Maybe this is a good opportunity. The forces in S city are complex, and the "Qin Xia case" in the near future will be even more involved. She needs to prepare before that!

"Yes!" Lei Zi said seriously.

Seeing that the boss had no other instructions, Lei Zi thought for a while and said, "Boss, you asked me to check the woman's information. I have already completed the check!"

Tang Ling raised her head and looked at Lei Zi, nodded, and motioned for him to continue.

"The name of the stage operator yesterday is Fang Qingqing. She is from Qingxian County. She is 22 years old this year. She lives in a single-parent family. She has lived with her mother since she was a child. After her mother passed away when she was 18, she came to S city to work alone. She has worked here for two years and has always been very obedient.

, I didn’t cause any trouble. Yesterday, the station ordered by Team Wu and others was attracted by those from the Qing Gang, and there was a conflict!"

Lei Zi told Tang Ling all the information found last night, "But one thing is very interesting. Captain Wu and Fang Qingqing's mother have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, but they failed to get together!"

After Tang Ling heard this, she raised her eyebrows. It seemed that the two of them knew each other like this. In later generations, the aunt and uncle always quarreled. It turned out to be because the uncle had an affair! Unexpectedly, after being reborn, it was Tang Ling who gave Wu Guangyuan and

Fang Qingqing created the opportunity to meet!

Seeing Tang Ling's silence, Lei Zi thought Tang Ling was unhappy and said, "Boss, do you want to get Fang Qingqing away?"

Because he took over the job of "Nighthawk", Lei Zi has many connections in all aspects. If he wants to steal someone away silently, it's a piece of cake!

"No, take another look. Find someone to keep an eye on Fang Qingqing. If there is anything wrong, tell me immediately!"

The reason Tang Ling didn't agree with Lei Zi's approach was not because she was a holy mother, but because she didn't want to get involved in other people's family disputes. More importantly, she wanted to see if her rebirth would cause a butterfly effect!

"Don't worry, boss, I've already sent someone to keep an eye on it!"

Tang Ling nodded, Lei Zi was very measured and prudent in doing things, he was a good helper!

"Let's go! Go to the antique market!"

In 1998, the antique market was very different from six years ago. In the past, only a few antique enthusiasts came to the antique market. But in 1998, there were more people playing antiques. There were more antiques sellers and more buyers. The antique market was so crowded.

The uneven road has also been renovated. Originally, only half of a street was selling antiques, but now the entire street is filled with antique shops!

The antique store left to Qi Kaiping and the others is located diagonally opposite Zhenbaozhai. It has a good location and a good location. The store is also large in size. It has three floors, one floor higher than Zhenbaozhai!

The entire decoration style is simple and simple, with a calm atmosphere, giving people a sense of age! Seeing this decoration, Tang Ling smiled. She had always left the antique shop to Qi Kaiping and Zhu Hongyu, which rarely happened.

As time goes by, I didn’t expect that they did a good job!

Lei Zi and Tang Ling drove here. Before they entered the store, they were stopped by people from the store next door.

"Do you want to buy antiques? Come and have a look at my store. My store is a time-honored store and the items sold are all real antiques!" A man in his twenties stopped Tang Ling and the two with smiles!

Tang Ling and Lei Zi stopped in their tracks when they were stopped! They ignored the man and continued walking around.

The man didn't give up. Seeing that they were going to the next door, he rolled his eyes and came up to stop him, "I see you two are strangers, it's your first time here! The antique industry is in deep water. I want to buy antiques."

You still have to go to a time-honored store. It’s impossible to find any good items in a newly opened store like that! Don’t be fooled by its decoration!”

The man looked at the new store next door with a disgusted expression. That store has not officially opened yet. It is now in trial operation. The exterior decoration has taken away many customers! Otherwise, his boss would not let him come out to rob customers.

!

Tang Ling frowned. This antique shop has not officially opened yet, but it has already begun to be ostracized by its peers. Customers are even stopped on the street!

Seeing Tang Ling stop, the man felt happy, there was something going on!

"I'm telling you! Stores like theirs that rely on appearance and decoration don't have any good products. If you really buy them, you will regret it later! You have to endure it even if you buy fakes!"

The man talked more and more enthusiastically, "Like our store, if you buy it once, you will definitely come back the second time! Why? Because the stuff is genuine! There will be many repeat customers! If you don't believe me, just go to the store with me and have a look, I'm sure you will

like!"

It’s a shame that this guy doesn’t do sales!

Tang Ling smiled, her eyes moved, and she said, "Well, let's go to your house and have a look!"

Lei Zi glanced at the man with pity, "Are you stupid? You've stolen someone else's business and it's your boss! You're unlucky to be targeted by his boss!"

The man happily brought Tang Ling and the two to the store. Tang Ling entered the store and found that there were quite a lot of people! Everyone was followed by a clerk who looked like the man next to her!

This situation reminded her of the marketing techniques used by some wedding photo studios in later generations, which were nothing more than soliciting customers on the street and asking people to come in and have a look! When Tang Ling was shopping with her friends, she was often pulled in. Unexpectedly, she was actually in

Here we see the prototype!

Tang Ling scanned around the antiques in the store and nodded secretly. This antique store does have a lot of interesting pieces. No wonder the clerk dared to boast that all the antiques in the store are genuine!

"I can tell at a glance that this is your first time to buy antiques. Let me introduce a few to you!" The male clerk saw that Tang Ling had been looking at the entire store. He just thought it was her first time to see antiques and she had never seen much of the world, so

That’s what I said!

Tang Ling smiled and said, "Okay!"

She wanted to know what this male clerk would introduce to her!

"This way!"

The male clerk took Tang Ling and Lei Zi to the other side. The porcelain displayed here was all porcelain. In his experience, this kind of porcelain attracted the most attention, especially those who had never played with antiques.

Be attracted by the carvings and styles of porcelain!

Tang Ling took a look and shook her head secretly. The other antiques in this house were fine, but none of the porcelain was authentic!

The male clerk put on professional white gloves, carefully picked up a carved tea cup, moved the lamp on the side, held the cup and shined it under the light, and then said to Tang Ling, "Look at this porcelain cup with dragon and phoenix patterns from the Qing Dynasty.

This is authentic official kiln porcelain. In ancient times, dragon and phoenix patterns could only be used by the royal family. If ordinary people had one, it would be a crime to punish the nine tribes at that time!"

"Guanyao?" This clerk really dared to say.

"Of course! This is the blue and white porcelain from the Kangxi period. Not many official kilns have been handed down. I dare say that there will never be another official kiln from the Kangxi period in this entire street!"

Lei Zi doesn't understand antiques. In his eyes, this is just a broken cup. How can it compare with the jade teacup from Zhenbaozhai!

When the clerk saw that neither Tang Ling nor Tang Ling was interested, he rolled his eyes and asked, "What kind do you two like? I'll introduce it to you!"

Tang Ling looked around and pointed, "What's that over there?"

The clerk looked at the fingers and said with a smile, "Those are some antique calligraphy and paintings! Why are you interested in calligraphy and painting? Come on, let's go over there and see if there's anything you like!"

Tang Ling looked left and right before picking up a scroll from the table for a long time and asked, "How can I sell this painting?"

When the clerk took a look, it turned out to be a replica in the store. She murmured in her heart that she really didn't understand antiques. She saw so many genuine products, but she only looked at this replica!

"This painting is an imitation. The paintings hanging on the wall are all originals. The scrolls on the table are all imitation paintings. But even though they are imitations, the painting and coloring are of the highest quality! The price is also very good.

It’s not expensive, 800 a pair. Let’s see if there are any others that I like. Can we pick them up together?” No matter what he sells, he has money anyway!

After looking at other things, there really wasn't anything that caught her eye. There were quite a few genuine items in this shop, but they were all top-notch. Except for the "imitation paintings" in her hands, there really weren't any!

As soon as I paid here, I heard some noise next to me. It seemed like a customer and the clerk were arguing!

"I don't care. I asked someone to do the appraisal. This inkstone is fake! I spent 30,000 yuan when I bought it. Return it to me immediately! Otherwise, I will call the police and go to court to sue you!"

"What's going on? It's so noisy!"

A somewhat stout middle-aged man stood there at the stairs, he should be the owner of this shop!

Walking towards the quarrel, when he saw the quarrel, he frowned and asked, "Madam, do you question the antiques in our store?"

"That's right! The inkstone I bought from you a few days ago was said to be an antique from the Ming Dynasty, but I took it to someone to have it appraised, and they told me it was a fake! It's not from the Ming Dynasty at all! Give it to me quickly

return the goods!"

"In our antique business, there is no such thing as returns!" The boss shook his head and refused to return the goods!

"Why can't you return it! If you take a fake inkstone that can be bought on the street and sell it as an antique from the Ming Dynasty, you are obviously committing fraud!"

"Madam, please don't talk nonsense. The antiques we have here are all real antiques! Who knows if you came here to cheat money after switching the package! And the antique business relies on your eyesight. When you

If you are willing to spend money to buy it, it means that you also think that the inkstone is genuine. If every customer is like you and goes back to exchange for a fake one after buying it, then how can the antique shop still operate!"

"Why are you wronging people? I cheated people out of money? I think your family is cheating money! They got a bunch of fake goods and went to the street to solicit customers to buy them! You still don't admit that you cheated people, and you blame me! You guys

Don’t buy anything from him! He is a liar!”

The woman was so angry that she shouted loudly, and the customers in the store gathered around to watch. Some of them wanted to buy antiques, but they hesitated whether to buy them here. The prices of antiques are not cheap, and if you buy fake ones, you will lose more than you gain!

Tang Ling didn't want to stay any longer, so she bypassed the quarreling crowd and left the store!

Lei Zi glanced at the male clerk and said mockingly, "Repeat customers? Ha! Sure enough, there are repeat customers!"

In the embarrassed look of the male clerk, Lei Zi walked out of the store in a swagger!

"Boss! Are we leaving like this? Just buying a fake?" As soon as he left the store, Lei Zi couldn't help but asked curiously.

Logically speaking, the boss would not buy a fake. If the owner of this store is so robbing the boss of his business, would the boss spend money to buy a fake at his house?

Tang Ling waved the scroll in her hand, and a glint flashed in her eyes, "I have bought all the best things from his family, why don't you leave and wait for him to regret it?"

"Just such a painting? Is it still top-notch?"

Although Lei Zi doesn't know much about antiques, he also knows that people have to go over and over to appraise antiques before they are willing to spend money to buy them. The boss just glanced at them and bought the best one?

Lei Zi has never bought jade wool from Tang Ling, so he has never seen Tang Ling's "eyesight"! If Liu Zhanpeng were here at this time, he would definitely be in a hurry to go back to appraise the treasure!

Tang Ling stared at the scroll in her hand and smiled playfully, "Maybe it can also become the treasure of an antique shop!"

Lei Zi stared at Tang Ling with a strange look on his face. The treasure of the store? Just that broken painting? Or just bought it! Can you just buy a calligraphy and painting and use it as the treasure of the store?

Lei Zi didn't take this episode to heart. When he walked to the door of the antique shop, Tang Lingcai ordered, "Lei Zi, go and check the woman who asked for a return just now!"

"Yes, boss!" Lei Zi was a little confused, but he would definitely do what the boss ordered!

The antique shop was in trial operation, so there were not many people. Because the industrial and commercial aspects had not been settled yet, they only obtained the trial opening license. Over the weekend, Tang Ling decided to solve this matter personally!

Seeing Tang Ling coming, Qi Kaiping hurried over and said, "Mr. Tang, you are here!"

Tang Ling smiled and nodded, "Uncle Ping, how about the trial opening in the past two days?"

Qi Kaiping led Tang Ling inside and said, "In the two days of trial opening, many customers came, but not many transactions were made. After all, the prices of antiques in our antique stores are generally higher!"

"It doesn't matter how high the price is. As long as the product is good and genuine, people will come to you no matter how high the price is. Don't worry about that!"

Qi Kaiping nodded, "Well, the advertisement we put out is 'if you get a fake, you get ten for a fake'. Although the price is high, you don't have to worry about the source of customers! However, no one can be 100% sure about these antiques, so we have to be careful about our supply.

!”

"If you make a mistake, you will lose ten points" is not a joke. An antique is worth a lot of money. If it is mistaken, the compensation will be huge! When Tang Ling decided on this slogan, they did not agree with it. After all, antiques are

The risk is too great, no antique shop dares to boast like this in Haikou!

"As for the source of goods, as long as you find them well, I will check them every time you purchase them!" With the "ghost eyes" around, you don't have to worry about counterfeit goods!

"Uncle Ping, if we open a store, how will the colleagues in this area react?"

Qi Kaiping frowned and said, "Other stores are fine, but the store next to us seems to be very hostile! There are a lot of people soliciting customers at the door, which affects a lot of business! We are still in trial operation, so I don't care too much.

!”

"Hmph! The boss and I were dragged away just now! They're grabbing customers before it even opens. It's better now that it's opened!" Lei Zi was a little dissatisfied.

"This...Mr. Tang, how about I go talk to them?" Qi Kaiping looked a little embarrassed. The antique store was left to him and Zhu Hongyu to take care of, but he hadn't solved this problem yet!

"No!" Tang Ling waved her hand, "They can do whatever they want. The antique industry is unlike other industries and requires some means of competition. As long as the antiques are genuine, are you afraid that they won't be sold? What's more, our purpose is

It’s not about opening an antique shop, but building an entire antique street. For things like this, you don’t need to distract too much! Just be yourself!”

Qi Kaiping was stunned, right! He was so busy with the antique store these days that he actually forgot that Tang Ling was eyeing this antique street. Opening an antique store was just a stepping stone to enter the antique street! Qi Kaiping suddenly sighed in his heart, don't look at it.

Tang Ling is young, but she sees things in the long term! He is really ashamed of himself!

"Where is Uncle Zhu? Let's take a look at the scroll I just bought!" Although Tang Ling has "ghost eyes" and can discover antiques, her knowledge of antiques is still limited. In this regard, Zhu Hongyu has rich experience.

But an antique addict!

"That brother!" Qi Kaiping sighed, "I guess he went to the antique pile to study antiques again!"

Tang Ling smiled, this is good, Qi Kaiping is suitable for dealing with people, while Zhu Hongyu likes to study antiques, and the two of them complement each other!

The antique shop only displayed some of the antiques on the surface, and some were placed in the warehouse at the back. At this time, Zhu Hongyu was studying dragon pattern celadon in the warehouse. He was fascinated by the research, so when Tang Ling and the others came in, he was

Didn't notice it!

Just when Lei Zi was about to call him, Tang Ling stopped him. If Lei Zi yelled at him, the celadon in Zhu Hongyu's hand would probably be scrapped!

After fiddling with it for a long time, Zhu Hongyu stopped, put the celadon aside, took off his glasses, and murmured, "Is it true?"

"What's true?" Qi Kaiping interrupted. He was speechless when facing Zhu Hongyu. When this guy specializes in antiques, he often ignores other things! No wonder his antique shop can't continue to operate!

When Zhu Hongyu heard the voice, he turned around quickly and was a little surprised to see Tang Ling and the others, "Hey, when did Mr. Tang come?"

Qi Kaiping rolled his eyes, "It's been a long time!"

Zhu Hongyu was stunned, patted his forehead, and said quickly, "Look, I'm doing this old thing again. Xiaoping, why didn't you call me?"

When Qi Kaiping heard Zhu Hongyu call him "Xiaoping", the hairs all over his body stood up again! What he couldn't bear the most was that Zhu Hongyu called him "Xiaoping". Qi Kaiping was already in his 30s, and Zhu Hongyu had a slightly "kind" expression.

"He really couldn't accept the title!

"Hurry up and take a look at the scroll in Mr. Tang's hand. I just bought it!" As they were walking and chatting, they realized that Mr. Tang was not only taken to the antique shop next door, but also bought a scroll!

"Scroll? Bring it to me quickly and take a look!"

As soon as he heard that there were antiques to be appraised, Zhu Hongyu immediately became energetic, took the scroll from Tang Ling, took it to the square table and unfolded it!

Tang Ling and others gathered around. Zhu Hongyu put on his glasses again and observed the scroll carefully. Except for Lei Zi, all three of them looked carefully. After a while, Qi Kaiping looked at Tang Ling with a strange expression.

"Mr. Tang, is this an imitation?"

The paper is quite old, and it looks like it was made in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, but the painting is very average. Both the painting and the coloring are a bit jerky, and it cannot be called top-grade among imitations!

Zhu Hongyu said nothing and kept studying the scroll. He felt that it was not bright enough, so he took a lamp from the side and illuminated the scroll even brighter. From the picture to the inscription to the signature, he carefully looked at it inch by inch and saw the signature.

At this place, Zhu Hongyu frowned, as if he had discovered something, and looked at it carefully again with uncertainty!

"But what did you find?" Tang Ling asked.

Zhu Hongyu nodded tangledly, then shook his head. Qi Kaiping saw this and rolled his eyes, "Brother, what do you mean by nodding and shaking your head? Are you playing riddles with us?"

Zhu Hongyu still didn't speak for a long time, which made Qi Kaiping sigh again and again! There is no way that one has a quick temper and the other has a slow temper!

"Uncle Zhu, is there something fishy?"

In fact, Tang Ling was not sure. The mist in this scroll was very rich, but also very strange. It was obviously very rich, but also very hazy and contradictory!

"The brushwork is not perfect, and the inscription is a bit average. Judging from the coloring, it is a new work. At most, it can be regarded as a work from the Republic of China period. However, the cinnabar seal of the inscription is a bit strange!" Zhu Hongyu pointed to the inscription with one finger and took it.

Through a magnifying glass!

"This cinnabar seal was probably opened by water before, and then dried by someone!" Zhu Hongyu shook his head, this is indeed true!

"Oh?" Tang Ling took a step forward and looked carefully at the cinnabar seal where the signature was signed. Zhu Hongyu pointed it out to her.

"Look here, the paper here is obviously thinner than other places. I lifted the scroll and looked at it. It should have been a red cinnabar seal, but now there is a faint black color! Could it be rubbed somewhere?"

Tang Ling took the scroll and observed it for a long time with her "ghost eye", and found that the fog at the signature was the clearest! She touched the paper and put the scroll on the table!

"Uncle Zhu, cut the paper on the surface with a knife!"

"Pull it open?" Lei Zi and three others shouted in unison.

Tang Ling nodded and said to Zhu Hongyu, "Get a special paper knife and be gentle when cutting. Be sure not to scratch the paper!"

"What Mr. Tang means is that he suspects there is something hidden here?" Zhu Hongyu already knew what Tang Ling meant after hearing Tang Ling's instructions!

He also knew about the drama that contained the universe, but he had never seen it before. After all, few people had the courage to risk destroying the painting to pursue the one-in-a-million possibility!

Zhu Hongyu quickly found a paper knife, looked at the scroll, and gestured for a long time, but he didn't even bother to touch it. You know, this thin piece of paper, as long as the hand shakes a little, it will be cut directly!

"Brother, do you want to do it or not? If not, I will do it!" Seeing Zhu Hongyu's hesitation, Qi Kaiping really wanted to do it for him!

"Go, go, go! What do you know! Others have special instruments to peel off the outer layer of paper. I can just get started with a paper knife!" Zhu Hongyu said slowly.

Qi Kaiping wasn't angry after hearing this. The relationship between the two has taken shape and they both understand each other's tempers!

"Mr. Tang, let me scrape down from where the signature is written, and make an opening. If there really is something hidden inside, it won't be too late to cut open the entire scroll!"

Tang Ling nodded in agreement, and Zhu Hongyu started his work! He gently scraped the signature area a few times, and crimson paper foam fell one after another. He blew the scraped paper foam away and continued to scrape.

few times!

The bigger the scratch was, the more excited Zhu Hongyu was. There was indeed something fishy! He sped up the movement of his hand and cut it horizontally with a paper knife along the scratch!

hiss!

"This..." Qi Kaiping stared at the scroll in front of him in disbelief and rubbed his eyes, "Is there really something hidden inside? Oh my God! This is a legendary stunt!"

Zhu Hongyu's hands were trembling a little. He was not afraid, he was excited! He had studied antiques for many years and had only heard about the hidden world inside the scroll. He didn't expect that he would uncover the outer skin with his own hands today!

How could he not be excited? Even the masters of the world had no chance to try something, but he accomplished it today! And there is really something hidden in it! He almost burst into tears!

Because he was afraid that directly pulling out the painting inside might cause damage due to the passage of time, Zhu Hongyu did not pull out the scroll directly, but carefully cut open the outside of the painting paper with a knife. This cut took nearly two hours.

, and then cut off all the surrounding areas!

Zhu Hongyu had a little sweat on his head. After the last cut, he was so tired that he sat on a chair nearby and took a few deep breaths!

In less than half a minute, he quickly stood up and together with Qi Kaiping, peeled off the top layer of tissue paper bit by bit!

"It's also a painting! But it doesn't look like paper!" Lei Zi was also very interested. He had never seen any paintings in the painting!

"It's silk!" Qi Kaiping explained while looking at the painting. This was the first time he had seen this kind of painting that contained the universe, and he found it very novel!

"Uncle Zhu, can you tell what era the work is from?" Tang Ling has learned a lot about jade over the years, but she still knows very little about antiques!

"This should be from before the Song Dynasty. There is no signature on this silk painting. Inscriptions only became popular during the Song Dynasty, so this painting should be a work before that!"

Zhu Hongyu took one look and concluded, "But just from the perspective of the painting skills, it is absolutely top-notch! I have seen many famous paintings, but none of them can compare to this one! Look at how detailed and lifelike this painting is! Even the candlestick is

The painting is so exquisite!" Zhu Hongyu became more and more excited as he looked at it, and he sighed every time he looked at it! This is definitely the work of a master of calligraphy and painting!

"sky!"

Zhu Hongyu walked a few steps quickly, holding a corner of the painting, his voice a little excited, "Who! This! This is simply a waste of antiques!"

Tang Ling and others hurried over to take a look. The end of the painting was actually torn! This silk painting is not like a paper painting. You need to use a sharp tool to tear the silk painting apart, so the uneven gaps must have been deliberately made by someone.

The painting will be destroyed!

"It seems that this is not a whole painting! Uncle Ping, go and send invitations to senior antique lovers. We will hold an antique appraisal exhibition before the official opening! It will be a good time to promote our antique store in advance!

"

Seeing so many years of antiques being destroyed, Tang Ling also felt uncomfortable. Her top priority was to find out what this painting was!

However, judging from this method of preserving the painting, the value of this painting must be quite high!

"Sure! I'll start it today!" Qi Kaiping also knew that if the antiques were authenticated, it would be a great help to the business!

Their antique shop is going to be a hit!

"Let's set the time for next Sunday! Try to get the industrial and commercial side this week!" Liu Zhanpeng took Qi Kaiping to the industrial and commercial side several times, but they were blocked all the time. What was originally a simple matter has become a bit tricky!

Tang Ling stared at the exquisite and extraordinary silk paintings in front of her, her thoughts flying. The government has no one, and it is really difficult to get things done!
