Merchant of the Underworld

That afternoon, the man in the T-shirt left with Zen Master Bai Mei.

I was worried, would the Thai wizard come back for revenge? The man in the t-shirt told me to rest assured, because the other party was under the spell of evil. He would probably lose half his life even if he didn't die, and his vitality would be severely damaged for a long time.

During this period of time, Li Mazi devoted himself to spending time with Chu Chu, almost becoming a housewife.

I visited Chu Chu several times. Chu Chu was very smart and had learned to surf the Internet. She was playing games and eating apples that Li Mazi peeled for her.

Chu Chu even learned to act coquettishly, because she didn't like drinking the nutrient solution Li Mazi bought, so Li Mazi forced her to drink it, just like coaxing a child.

The old witch doctor sat in the yard all day long, basking in the sun, and his only pastime was reading the newspaper. The greatest fun is telling some ghost stories to Li Xiaomeng.

Judging from Li Xiaomeng's shock, one knew that this old witch doctor must be a master of telling stories.

I stayed alone in the antique shop, which was far less lively than Li Mazi's house, so I often took Yin Xinyue to Li Mazi's house to have dinner. Li Mazi was quite generous, and prepared a large table of meals every time, which made Yin Xinyue ask me when Li Mazi stopped being stingy?

Although Chu Chu eats a lot of meat every day, her body is still so thin and fragile, like a white lotus. When no one was around, Li Xiaomeng simply called her sister. She was not angry and talked and laughed with Li Xiaomeng.

This kind of life is quiet and warm. If it weren't for finding Ye Long, I would really want to close the antique shop and move to Li Mazi's house.

But I was destined to have no time for leisure. I just came back from Li Mazi’s house that day and found a few beggars sitting in front of the antique store. They were dressed in rags. There was a stretcher next to it, and there was a stretcher lying on it. Big fat man.

I was wondering, in what age are we now, why are beggars still so popular? Could it be that these beggars came to my shop to try their luck?

Yin Xinyue was very worried and asked me if I should call the police. It would be bad if they got involved.

I took a second look and was a little hesitant.

The beggars realized that I had been observing them, so they came up and surrounded me.

I quickly protected Yin Xinyue behind me and asked them what they wanted to do.

Seeing how nervous I was, they quickly comforted me and told me not to be afraid, and asked me if I was the owner of this antique shop.

I said yes, what happened?

I didn't expect that when I said this, they knelt down to me with a 'dong' sound, which frightened Yin Xinyue so much that she couldn't help but scream.

I couldn't help but laugh. What are these beggars doing? Shouldn't they let me be the leader of the beggar gang and pass the dog-beating stick to me?

"Boss Zhang, you must save my son." One of the old beggars said in tears.

I helped him up inexplicably: "What's going on? Old man, please stand up and talk."

The old beggar then stood up and put a jade ring into my hand: "Boss Zhang, I know that you are an expert and you are in the business of buying and selling yin objects. Can you help me see if this jade ring is a yin object?" My son has been seriously harmed by this thing."

When I heard that the jade ring might be a female object, I retracted my hand as if I was electrocuted.

It’s better not to touch this kind of thing until you understand the situation!

I immediately invited them into the store.

Looking at how these people were dressed, I couldn't help but frown secretly. It seems that they will definitely not make any money this time. These people are too poor, their clothes are all patched, and they are all sallow and thin, and they obviously don't have enough to eat.

They carried the big fat man into my store. The strange thing was that as soon as he entered the store, the old beggar covered the big fat man's eyes with a piece of black cloth.

The fat man's belly was as big as that of a pregnant woman, and his snoring was loud.

I asked curiously: "What's going on with this man? Why is he blindfolded..."

I'm still a little worried. They are a professional fraud gang. After all, their appearance makes people suspicious.

The old beggar waved his hand and said it was nothing, don't worry about him.

Looking at the evasiveness of this group of people, I knew that things must not be that simple, so I simply asked Yin Xinyue to hide in the room and record the whole process with her mobile phone.

I brought each of them a can of Coke, but they secretly hid the Coke in their clothes and did not drink it.

I wanted to open the Coke can, but the old beggar stopped me: "Um...Boss Zhang, can you promise me something?"

As he spoke, he looked at his watch.

I frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"

The old beggar said nervously: "My son is about to wake up, he still has a few minutes to go! When you are in front of him later, don't mention anything to eat, and don't let him see that you have food in the shop. Okay." ?"

I immediately became happy. This was the first time I heard such strange conditions.

I smiled and said it doesn't matter, you can eat as much as you want, just treat it as my treat, okay? No need to be so sneaky.

The young man next to him smiled disdainfully: "I'm afraid you can't afford it."

As soon as the young man spoke, the old beggar immediately stopped him: "Er Kui, don't talk nonsense."

The young man rolled his eyes at the fat man lying on the stretcher with dissatisfaction, and simply lowered his head and stopped talking.

"Now that everyone has entered the store, why don't you quickly tell me what all this is about?" I couldn't help but smile. I really couldn't stand this curiosity.

"Alas." The old beggar began to cry silently: "Please help me take a look at this jade ring first! See if you can find anything wrong with this jade ring."

After saying that, the old beggar handed me the jade ring. Seeing that I had no intention of taking it, he simply put the jade ring on the coffee table.

I looked carefully and realized that this jade ring should be considered a real antique! The surface is warm and smooth, the color is bright, and there are still hazy blood streaks inside. At first glance, it looks like an extremely precious mutton fat chicken blood finger. The price on the market is at least six figures.

Guarding such a big treasure, this family actually became beggars, and they were really convinced.

But when I thought about them saying that the jade ring might be a female object, I immediately observed it carefully. I used a magnifying glass to look at it for a long time, but I couldn't see anything special.

I had no choice but to ask them: "Old man, how did you conclude that this finger ring is a female object?"

Before the old beggar could answer, the young man next to him suddenly raised his head: "Damn it, the starving devil has woken up..."

I immediately glanced towards the living room, and sure enough the big fat man was awake. What made my scalp numb was that he was lying in the trash can in front of the store, wolfing down the leftovers like a pig!

How hungry do you have to be to be able to eat even garbage?

The family member immediately screamed, ran up in a hurry, and pulled the big fat man's head out of the trash can. The old beggar casually took out a roll of wire from his pocket and tied the big fat man's hands and feet.

I saw that the wire had torn the big fat man's arm, and I couldn't help but feel distressed: "Old man, what are you going to do? Why are you so cruel to this fat brother? If you are short of money and can't eat, I'll pay for it."

"Eat? I want to eat." The big fat man screamed like a slaughtering pig: "Give me food quickly, I'm going to starve to death."

I immediately covered my mouth, regretting saying the word 'eat'.

The young man smiled angrily and said, "It's over now. Within a few hours, this stupid pig couldn't stop at all..."

"Erkui, what are you talking about? Watch your brother, Boss Zhang and I will go in and talk."

The old beggar stood up and looked at me helplessly. His eyes were full of sadness and helplessness. I knew that it was the sadness of a father.

"Boss Zhang, let's go up to the room and talk." The old beggar pointed to the bedroom: "Don't let Erkui see it."

I nodded immediately: "Okay."

This family was so mysterious and secretive that I was speechless.

After entering the bedroom, the old beggar knelt down to me again with a grunt and took out a bundle from his arms without any explanation. Opening the bag, there were neat piles of money inside, at least more than 100,000.

I was even more surprised. He is so rich and still pretends to be a beggar. Is this because he is full?
