Merchant of the Underworld

This 800,000 yuan is almost like picking it up for free, so I am quite happy.

The first thing I did when I got the money was to clean up this antique store from top to bottom. I have secretly decided that this is how I will make a living in the future.

Just the decoration alone cost me almost half of my money, and I deposited the remaining 400,000 in the bank. In this industry, the results will be slow if you invest too much, so you have to keep some cash on hand at all times.

I didn't receive any business for the next whole month, and I felt a little impatient. After all, it was too tiring to stay in the store every day.

Unexpectedly, my second business was also brought by Li Mazi...

Li Mazi was in a good mood that day and brought a lot of things to see me. Seeing how his face was glowing and his words were confident, I knew that this guy must have something good to do with me.

This guy is different from me. His shop is managed by assistants. Whenever he has time, he goes to the remote countryside to collect and sell antiques. He also entered the industry early and has a wide network of contacts. He has much more experience than me. .

That's why when Li Mazi proposed to partner with me, I said it was a big deal.

Li Mazi brought a bottle of "China Blue" worth more than 300 yuan. I ordered a beef hot pot and started eating and drinking.

I asked Li Mazi if there was any business coming to him?

Li Mazi grinned at me: "Brother Zhang, a big business is coming this time. Last time, you sold a pair of embroidered shoes for 800,000 yuan. I have a feeling that this This time we have to earn at least one million or more."

I immediately became interested and asked Li Mazi to tell me in detail.

Li Mazi took a sip of wine and said, since he last saw me making 800,000 yuan, he has no intention of doing his old job. Because although antiques are also a hugely profitable industry, the country is now strict with inspections, and business is becoming more and more difficult to do. Moreover, he was the one who caught the eye of the embroidered shoes, so he lost a lot of money, so he wanted to start a business of femininity to have a good look at it. Book.

He had traveled all over the country for so many years, and he had also heard about antiques causing ghosts, so when he returned, he used his memory to carefully recall the strange things he had heard before. Then they screened carefully and went to investigate one house at a time to see which one was still causing trouble.

Of course, it's not that easy to find yin objects. Many of the strange things that have been widely circulated are mostly fabricated by the people and have no real basis.

However, Li Mazi was extremely patient, and in the end he was stunned to find a clue from hundreds of messages!

In his hometown, there is one thing that is particularly famous.

In the late Qing Dynasty, there was a prominent local family. The patriarch of that family spent a lot of effort to send his daughter to the palace to become Puyi's concubine.

After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the concubine was escorted back to her hometown by an old eunuch. When she came back, she also pulled a cart full of treasures from the palace.

As a result, the family was not happy for a long time. War broke out across the country again. During the war, almost all the family's treasures were robbed, except for a very strange blue and white porcelain.

And now there is only one lazy man left in the huge family.

They didn’t even remove the weeds from the crops, but harvested them all year round. This was a complete defeat for the family.

Until one day, a hawker heard that this family had treasures and came to his house to collect them. As soon as the lazy man heard that the weird blue and white porcelain at home could be sold for two thousand yuan, he immediately sold it.

But after selling it, strange things began to happen. Every morning when he got up, his body would be dripping with blood, and there would be bloody cuts, as if someone had scratched it with fingernails.

What's even more terrifying is that when he was injured, he didn't feel any pain.

Originally thinking that someone was playing a prank, the lazy man locked the doors and windows tightly, and even tied hair with hair at all the entrances and exits. If someone breaks in, your hair will definitely break!

Unexpectedly, when he woke up the next day, the lazy man found that he had more injuries. On the back of his spine, there was a shocking five-finger scratch. The pink flesh was turned out.

And looking at the hair tied to the door, it didn't move at all, and there was no sign of anyone entering the room.

The lazy man was immediately dumbfounded. He knew that it must be the blue and white porcelain that was causing trouble. Because our ancestors taught us that this piece of blue and white porcelain is a family heirloom, passed down from generation to generation, even if we are desperate, we must protect the blue and white porcelain with our lives.

Otherwise, there will be a bloody disaster.

Even if a lazy man is greedy for money, he has to be cautious in front of life.

Fortunately, the person who defrauded the blue and white porcelain was a relative of the locals. He was a lazy man who kept cursing at the door of the house and said depressing words. The family couldn't deal with it and finally returned the thing to him.

Strangely enough, the lazy man has never encountered anything like this since then.

In order to increase the credibility of this matter, Li Mazi repeatedly told me that this matter was rumored to be very mysterious at the time. People in eight nearby villages knew about it, and even a newspaper even conducted an interview.

Li Mazi also accidentally remembered it last time, so he went to the lazy man's house. And this trip was really not in vain, because he discovered that lazy people have started to encounter strange things again recently!

I dare not sleep at all every day, because as soon as I go to bed, I wake up the next day and my whole body is scratched and bloody.

However, the lazy man learned the lesson from last time and protected the blue and white porcelain well. How did he offend this thing?

Li Mazi immediately realized that the blue and white porcelain might be a sinister object, so he told the lazy man that he could find professionals to solve the matter.

Li Mazi opened his own shop and was considered a prominent figure in the village, so he won the trust of the lazy people with just one sentence.

But I felt a little creeped out and said, "Li Mazi, Li Mazi, you are a bit unkind! What happened last time, I almost lost my life, but this time you dare to find such a vicious thing."

"Embroidered shoes can only make people sleepwalk, but they can't kill people. And this thing can actually hurt people directly. It must have a lot of background!"

Li Mazi was a little surprised: "Brother Zhang, isn't it? I saw you were quite capable last time."

I sighed and said: "There are three things that we don't accept in this industry, namely those who hurt people's lives, those who mess with people's luck, and those who suck people's blood. You have two major taboos. Ah! It hurts people's lives and sucks people's blood, I can't control this."

Li Mazi immediately began to plead hard: "Brother Zhang, you can't do anything about this, I've already boasted about it in front of him! At worst, let's go over and take a look. If you can, just take care of it. If you can't, just leave. Anyway, I have free time." It’s just idle time, just looking for excitement.”

"We also have a rule, that is, when it comes to selling illicit goods, you either don't get involved for the rest of your life, or you get involved for the rest of your life..." I sneered.

"Why are there so many rules in your industry? Come on, little brother, let's not tell secrets. How can your ability to scheme against customers be used on me? It makes me so sad. We can't split it 50-50. You Let’s move on to six and four,” Li Mazi said.

"This is not about money."

"You seven and I three, that's alright, right?"

"make a deal."

"Nima."

Without further ado, we immediately drove to Li Mazi’s hometown.
