My Supernatural Life of Leisure

Rongcheng, East District, inside a pawn shop.

A boss in his 60s sat behind his counter, eating tea and snacks while looking at his mobile phone.

A few years ago, he might still be reading newspapers. However, with the development of the times and the rapid development of technology, people who read newspapers now gradually switch to using mobile phone software to read news.

I think back in those days, when I went to a newsstand to buy a newspaper, I would sometimes have to queue up!

While the pawn shop owner was watching the news, a young man wearing a mask and sunglasses, carrying a black handbag, walked into his shop.

"Boss, do you want to collect things here?" After the visitor walked into the store, he found that the boss in front of him did not even look up at him, and was still staring at his mobile phone.

Hearing someone calling him, the owner of the pawn shop came back to his senses. He raised his head and saw the other person's dress. Based on experience, he knew that the other person was here to discuss business with him, not the kind of person who came to ask casual questions. .

"Take it! Do you want to sell something? Take it out and show it to me." The pawn shop owner put his mobile phone in his pocket and stood up from the bamboo woven comfort.

After hearing this, Tang Wenwu, who was wearing a mask and sunglasses, immediately put the black handbag on the ground. Then he bent down, opened the zipper of the warrant bag, and took out a 'small yellow croaker'.

"This... take a look."

When the pawn shop owner saw the other party take out a gold bar from his bag, he raised his eyebrows slightly, then reached out to take the gold bar from the other party and weighed it in his hand.

Based on my many years of experience in the industry, this gold bar is most likely real.

"Young man, where did you get this gold bar?"

"It's been handed down from our ancestors," Tang Wenwu said to the pawn shop owner in front of him, using the excuse he had already thought of.

"Then your group is pretty rich!"

"It's just so so... Do you accept gold bars here?"

"Take it! How can a pawn shop not accept this thing?" the pawn shop owner smiled, and then added. "Do you have the corresponding invoice?"

"Boss, I said it was handed down from our ancestors, where is the invoice?"

"Well...if you don't have an invoice, it won't be easy for me to collect it!" The pawn shop owner hesitated and said.

Tang Wenwu had encountered this kind of expression from the other party when he sold gold bars several times before. Now he still didn't know what the other party meant, so he showed a regretful expression.

"That's it, okay then! I'll go ask somewhere else, sorry for bothering you."

When the pawn shop owner saw Tang Wenwu reaching for the gold bar in his hand to leave, the hesitant expression on his face changed instantly.

"Young man, I'm just saying that it's not easy to close, but I'm not saying that it can't be closed. Why are you so anxious?"

"Haha, didn't you just want to lower my price with that look on your face?" Tang Wenwu laughed secretly in his heart when he saw the other party holding his gold bars in his arms with a false smile on his face.

"So that's what it means! What's your price?" Tang Wenwu said in a tone of sudden realization.

"Come, come, let's go to the VIP room to drink tea and chat." The pawn shop owner greeted Tang Wenwu enthusiastically.

"Just give me a glass of mineral water." Tang Wenwu did not refuse the other party's warm reception. He followed the other party to the VIP room and made his request.

…………

A moment later, Tang Wenwu came out of the pawn shop, and the transaction was completed very quickly.

Although the price will be lower than before, Tang Wenwu doesn't take this discount fee to heart.

"Okay, today's first transaction is completed. Let's continue in another place."

Yes, the gold bars Tang Wenwu just sold in the pawn shop were only a small part of what he wanted to sell today. There were also several black handbags in the trunk of his car, each containing several gold bars.

The owner who completed the transaction in the pawn shop looked at the three gold bars on the table with a bright smile on his face.

Through corresponding instrument testing, the three gold bars in front of him were genuine. Afterwards, he could earn a price difference of 20,000 yuan as long as he resold these three gold bars.

He made 20,000 yuan in just a short conversation with the customer just now, which for a small pawn shop like him, can be worth half a month's income.

"That young man must still have gold bars in his hand. I gave you such a warm reception just now. He will probably come again next time!"

After the conversation with Tang Wenwu just now, the pawn shop owner, who has become mature in age, was able to judge from the other party's cautious attitude and some small details that Tang Wenwu still had gold bars left.

At this moment, Tang Wenwu, who was driving to the next pawn shop he had selected in advance, did not know that he still had gold bars. The previous pawn shop owner had already guessed it.

But even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care. It's broad daylight and the world is clear, and it's not an ancient feudal society. Is it possible that the other party still dares to rob him?

…………

The Yun family villa.

In Tang Wenwu's study.

"boom."

A slight sound suddenly sounded in the empty study room.

"boom."

"boom."

The sound was still coming, every once in a while it would make a sound.

If you listen carefully, you will find that the sound is coming from the drawer.

"boom."

If someone opens the locked drawer with a key at this time, they will find that the sound comes from a small iron box in the drawer.

"boom."

The ordinary little iron box contains a seemingly ordinary small stone ball.

This ordinary little stone ball, which Tang Wenwu regarded as a peerless treasure, was actually glowing with a light golden aura even though no one was activating it.

The small stone ball hit the small iron box gently, as if trying to escape from the small box that trapped itself.

"Click."

Tang Wenwu's study was pushed open, and a slim figure walked in from the outside.

The little stone ball trapped in the small iron box seemed to sense someone approaching from outside. The moment the study door opened, it stopped hitting the small box and stayed quietly in the corner of the small box, motionless...

"Strange...why is there no sound? Is it my imagination? Or...could it be a mouse that ran into the study?"

When Tang Wenwu's wife Yunrou was passing by Tang Wenwu's study, she overheard subtle noises coming from the study, so she opened the door and came in to check.

"I need to tell my husband later that a mouse ran into his study."

The more Yunrou thought about it, the more she felt that this was a possibility. When she thought that there was a mouse hiding in the study and secretly observing her, she couldn't help but be startled by her thoughts, and then quickly locked the door of the study. Go downstairs.

The door was locked, and the kitchen returned to silence. At this time, the little stone ball locked in the small iron box began to glow with a light golden aura again.

"boom."

"boom."

"boom."

Another banging sound came from the drawer again.

The subtle noise lasted for a few minutes. The little stone ball seemed to be tired. The pale golden aura on its body disappeared, and then there was no more noise in the study.

…

"Honey, I'm back." Tang Wenwu, who had been busy all morning, finally sold the batch of gold bars in his hand before lunch.

In the past, people had food in their hands and didn’t feel panic. Now, people have money in their hands and don’t feel panic.

After all the gold bars were sold, Tang Wenwu's pocket suddenly bulged. He was really high-spirited at this moment. If this secret could not be revealed to the outside world, he really wanted to tell everyone loudly that he had made nearly 800,000 yuan in one morning. .

"Husband, are you back?" Yunrou heard her husband's voice, walked out of the kitchen, and said with a smile. "Lunch has just been cooked. Go wash your hands and come eat!"

Mother-in-law Wang Hanyu walked out of the kitchen with two plates of food in her hands. After placing them on the table, she looked up at her son-in-law and said, "Where did you go for a walk this morning?"

"Walking around Huimin Shopping Mall." General Tang Wen said what he had planned from the beginning, "Mom, when I was shopping, I saw some very beautiful scarves.

The weather is going to be cold next, so I bought one for you, Yunrou and my little sister, and then I also bought a belt for Dad. "

Wang Hanyu originally wanted to say something else, but when he heard Tang Wenwu say that he had bought a gift for himself, he immediately changed his words, "Oh, you spent money randomly again... don't do this next time."

Seeing the happy expression on his mother-in-law's face, Tang Wenwu immediately said with a smile, "It doesn't cost much... The store just happened to be having an event, so it only cost 20,000 yuan in total to buy it!"

When Wang Hanyu heard that her son-in-law spent so much money to buy gifts for herself, her husband and their daughter, although the smile on her face was still there, she still showed a distressed expression.

"Although you are making a lot of money now, don't spend money lavishly. You and Yunrou are going to have children in the future! Start saving money.

You don’t know! How much does it cost to raise a child today?

Didn’t the daughter-in-law of Aunt Wang’s house next door give birth to a second child? Now there are two children, one older and one younger. What a expense! Every time Aunt Wang talks about this to me, I can feel that his family is under great pressure? "

"Yes, yes, mom, you are right..." Tang Wenwu smiled and nodded. Although his mother-in-law was a bit petty, she really cared about her son-in-law.

"Husband, come over for dinner!" At this time, Tang Wenwu's wife Yunrou greeted.

"Yes." Tang Wenwu responded, then washed his hands and sat down to eat.

"Come, have a sip of soup first. I stewed this specially for you." Yunrou served Tang Wenwu a bowl of ginseng and black-bone chicken soup.

Tang Wenwu took it with a smile, picked up the spoon and took a sip.

"How is the taste?"

"Delicious."

"By the way, where are Dad, Yunlan and Yunqi?"

"Dad is going out to eat with a client at noon, and Yunlan is going shopping with his good friends. Yunqi said that there is a test coming soon, and she will stay in school to review as soon as possible, and will not come back for lunch."

"Oh." Tang Wenwu nodded and ate happily. Both his mother-in-law and his wife were very good at cooking. He liked the food cooked by them very much.

Yun Rou saw that Tang Wenwu was eating well, and a happy smile appeared on her face. Suddenly, she thought of something, and the smile on her face immediately shrank, revealing a look of fear.

Tang Wenwu, who was eating, noticed the change in the expression on his wife's face. He immediately swallowed the food in his mouth and asked, "Wife, what's wrong?"

"Husband, there is a mouse in your study. After lunch, you can find a way to deal with it! It's scary." Yunrou said.

Wang Hanyu was reaching out to pick up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs. When she heard her daughter say that there was a mouse in Tang Wenwu's study, her hands shook in fright, and the spare ribs she just picked up fell back to the plate in an instant.

"A mouse ran into the study on the second floor? You need to catch it or drive it away immediately!"

There are very few girls who are not afraid of mice. Tang Wenwu saw the scared expressions on his mother-in-law and wife's faces. He nodded and said, "I'll go and pull it out after I finish eating."

After lunch, Tang Wenwu went to the utility room to find a stick, and then went to the study room on the second floor.

"Click."

After opening the door and closing it again, Tang Wenwu, armed with a stick, began to look for the mouse his wife talked about.

After rummaging through boxes and cabinets, Tang Wenwu could not find the mouse his wife mentioned.

"Strange, isn't it?"

Tang Wenwu, who spent a lot of effort and searched almost every corner of the study, sat on his ergonomic chair worth over ten thousand and thought.

"I'd better go online and buy some mouse glue! Just in case the mouse hides too secretly and is negligent."

As soon as he thought of it, he did it. Tang Wenwu immediately turned on his mobile phone and went to the shopping website to buy several pieces of mouse stickers.

Place an order and pay in one go. You no longer have to shop around and spend a lot of time before deciding to place an order. This is the refreshing feeling after having a bulging pocket.

The matter about the mouse came to an end for the time being. Tang Wenwu put his mobile phone on his desk. Then he took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and found the key that he valued most.

He opened the drawer that he had locked and took out a small iron box.

Opening the lid and looking at the ordinary stone ball lying quietly in the small iron box, Tang Wenwu picked it up from the small iron box, held it in the palm of his hand, and felt its smooth surface.

"If there were just one more, I could plate them like walnuts."

Tang Wenwu spread his thoughts and thought of the scene in the TV series where some rich people were holding two walnuts and spinning them around in their hands.

Such thoughts flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but laugh, "What are you thinking about? You are not satisfied with having such a unique treasure in the world, and you even think about having a second one."

After laughing at himself, Tang Wenwu put the small stone ball into the small iron box, then closed the lid, put it in the drawer, and finally locked the drawer.

This ordinary little stone ball can now be said to be the most important thing to Tang Wenwu.

As long as he comes home every time he goes out, he must take a look at it to make sure it is still where it should be.
