Reborn King of Marketing

Chapter 199 Antiques of the prosperous age

On the national highway heading to the provincial capital, two ambulances sped past, with a red Wrangler and a Porsche behind them.

This strange convoy combination is none other than Zhang Xuebing and his entourage.

The Wrangler handed over Er Zhuzi and Ma Gan, while Zhang Xuebing and Xiao Chenchen led the way in a Porsche.

At noon, the convoy drove onto Jingshi Road, the main road in Luonan City, the provincial capital.

Xiao Chenchen pointed towards the roadside and signaled Zhang Xuebing to stop.

"There is a checkpoint further ahead. You don't have a car license..."

The injured person in the ambulance was in stable condition. Zhang Xuebing slowly parked the car on the side of the road and exchanged places with Xiao Chenchen.

The two people's intimate expressions and movements were like lovers in love. This scene was seen by Su Waner in the ambulance behind.

She sighed and shook her head, and began to close her eyes to rest, but she felt very uncomfortable in her heart. While she was worried about her sister, she also felt a little sour.

The motorcade slowly drove into the parking lot in front of the outpatient building of the Provincial Hospital. Several nurses pushed a stretcher cart and were led by an elegant middle-aged doctor to greet them.

My sister-in-law and Xiong Zhan were put on a stretcher and pushed by nurses towards the inpatient building.

The elegant doctor walked a few steps quickly, came to Xiao Chenchen, and said with a smile.

"Junior sister doesn't usually come to see senior brother. When she comes, she has something to do. It makes me feel like a failure as a senior brother!"

Xiao Chenchen pursed her lips and smiled, "I'm afraid of harassing my senior brother and causing trouble if my sister-in-law finds out!"

The doctor put on a crying face, looked up to the sky and sighed.

"Hey, after I met my junior sister, I got married too early. Unfortunately, I couldn't help it. Is this young handsome man my brother-in-law?"

As he said this, he looked at Zhang Xuebing.

Xiao Chenchen waved her hands hurriedly, "Zhang Xuebing, my partner, is the largest herbal medicine supplier in Luoning City!"

The doctor put on an expression of disbelief, showed a playful smile, and extended his palm to Zhang Xuebing.

"A native of Shangluozhou, I'm glad to meet you!"

Zhang Xuebing shook hands with him in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, "Zhang Xuebing is from Zhangjiacun, Luoning. It's a great honor to meet Dr. Shang today!"

Shang Luozhou laughed and turned to Xiao Chenchen.

"Although you don't want to see me, senior brother, my sister has brought her friends. I have to show my kindness as a landlord. I'll go arrange the patients first. I'll treat you tonight. Please be sure to honor me!"

After Shang Luozhou left, Zhang Xuebing tilted his head and looked at Xiao Chenchen.

"Is he also your suitor?"

Sensing the sourness in his words, Xiao Chenchen felt sweet in her heart and said slightly, "Why are there so many suitors? They have been married for several years, and their children are all spoiled!"

The two of them walked into the inpatient building together and felt relieved after seeing that the arrangements made by their sister-in-law and Xiong Zhan were very appropriate.

Su Wan'er's condition has recovered, and she can only wait for a few days to rest and then continue to check her physical condition before getting symptomatic treatment.

The dangerous period for Xiong Zhan has passed, but the injury cannot be considered recovered until the stitches are removed, so he can only rest.

The conditions here are much better than those in Luoning, and if special circumstances arise, you can get timely treatment.

Zhang Xuebing originally wanted to stay and take care of his sister-in-law, but was told by the nurse that family members were not allowed to stay here and there were fixed hours for visits.

In this case, he had no choice but to give up and planned to go to Sili Mountain to meet Zhao Xianming's relative first.

So he asked Gao Fei to stay near the hospital to take care of him, but Xiong Zhan was worried that Gao Fei would be his driver and bodyguard because he was unfamiliar with the place.

Gao Fei also said, "Boss, there are many beautiful nurses in the hospital. The panda is eager to keep them all to himself. I don't want to be an eyesore here, so I'd better go and relax with you!"

When he came to the provincial capital this time, in addition to a large amount of cash, Zhang Xuebing also brought a lot of gold, silver and antiques. It would be safer if more people followed him.

After all, this was the early 1990s, and public security was far less robust than in the 21st century. Fights and robberies occurred from time to time in the provincial capital.

Zhang Xuebing waved everyone to wait for him in the car. He went to see his sister-in-law alone and had a few intimate words.

At this time, Su Waner no longer coughed violently. She held his hand and kept telling him not to tell Su Xin'er that she was sick.

Naturally, she didn't dare to tell the little girl about this matter. According to her temper, if she heard that her sister was seriously ill, she might have to run out in the college entrance examination room.

Zhang Xuebing quickly promised to keep it secret, and his sister-in-law felt relieved. She looked at him meaningfully and sighed.

"Xiao Bing, I can see that Xiao is a good woman. Because of my illness, she has been busy and put a lot of effort into finding connections. Don't let her down!"

Sure enough, his sister-in-law discovered something. Zhang Xuebing's old face turned red with embarrassment. He wanted to explain something but couldn't say anything, so he had to leave the ward silently.

In the parking lot, Xiao Chenchen was sitting in the driver's cab, wearing small gold-rimmed glasses. Her strong sense of intellectual maturity made people's hearts flutter.

Seeing Zhang Xuebing come back with a depressed look, she asked worriedly.

"Is there something wrong with the patient?"

"Everything is normal, they are fine!" Zhang Xuebing shook his head and sat in the passenger seat. At this moment, he had no intention of thinking about emotional matters.

The top priority is to solve the immediate problem, and then dig out the mastermind behind the murder and wounding, and capture Zhang Erdou so that he and his family can have a safe life.

Xiao Chenchen felt a little distressed when she saw his look, and said softly.

"Is this your first time in the provincial capital? I'll take you to visit the three major scenic spots?"

The so-called three major scenic spots in the provincial capital are the First Spring, Taiming Lake, and Wanfo Mountain.

These three major scenic spots not only often appear in film and television works, but have also been praised by countless literati from ancient times to the present.

Therefore, almost all tourists who come to the provincial capital must go sightseeing.

Zhang Xuebing had been there more than once in his previous life. If it were another time, he would definitely want to visit the place again, but now he has no interest in visiting it at all.

He immediately said, "Go to Si Li Mountain!"

Xiao Chenchen almost burst into tears, "It's not Qingming Festival, why don't you go visit the grave?"

Zhang Xuebing rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Go to the cultural and entertainment market!"

As he spoke, he rolled down the window and waved to the Wranglers behind him, gesturing for them to follow.

Sili Mountain is located on the southern edge of the old city. It has been a place where locals used to do morning exercises many years ago.

Later, it gradually developed into a flower, bird, fish and insect morning market. In the past ten years, as the citizens have become increasingly wealthy, the demand for collections of cultural toys has gradually increased, and a large cultural toys market has spawned here.

There is an endless stream of old people who come here every morning to take a walk and do morning exercises. After eight o'clock, those who buy and sell literature and entertainment begin to occupy the place like crucian carp crossing the river.

Some of these people are engaged in business and own shops here.

But most of them are merchants, and setting up a street stall can attract countless customers.

There are many sellers, and there are more tourists. Some are looking for new things, some are just picking up things, and more people are just watching the fun.

On weekdays, the flow of people is slow, but the flow of passengers is huge. If it catches up with the weekend, it will be even more crowded.

It is said that the dark crowd here can be seen from miles away.

With such a large flow of customers, over time, Silishan Cultural Toy Market has become the largest cultural toy distribution center in eastern Shandong Province.

Today, by coincidence, it is Saturday, the time when the Wenwan Market has the most people.

Zhang Xuebing and his two cars started looking for a parking space a few hundred meters away from the market gate. Finally, after walking around for a long time, they found that they couldn't even insert a needle.

"Hey, uncle, could you please tell me, where can I park nearby?"

Gao Fei rolled down the window and asked an old man passing by.

The old man grinned, showing his teeth yellowed by smoke, "You want to park, but there's no way here. You go ahead and find a hotel where you can park!"

I'm afraid the hotel parking lot is not very easy to park!

The old man saw Gao Fei's doubts, "You just say you have lunch, stop for a while, wait until you come back from shopping, then drive away, how can they still drive you away?"

Gao Fei smiled bitterly, he had no other choice but to do this, but they had to eat at noon anyway, so there was no need to play tricks on others.

The car stopped at the entrance of the Wenwan Market. Zhang Xuebing, Xiao Chenchen and Ma Gan got off first. Gao Fei and Er Zhuzhu drove two cars to find a hotel to park, and decided on a place to have lunch.

Others were traveling lightly, but Ma Gan was carrying a huge travel bag, which contained the antique samples he brought this time.

These things were priceless, which made him nervous, and he would reach out to touch the backpack from time to time.

Zhang Xuebing was speechless at this obvious act of attracting thieves, so he had no choice but to let him walk in front while he and Xiao Chenchen looked after him from behind.

Although he had been here in his previous life, Zhang Xuebing was still amazed by the endless flow of people. The old saying is true, antiques from the prosperous age!

The Wenwan Market is built along the slope of Sili Mountain. It starts from the foot of the mountain and goes upwards. Before the gate of the market, the roadside is already full of stalls set up by individuals.

The shop they wanted to go to was inside the market, so they could only walk up from the foot of the mountain following the flow of people.

Along the way, I discovered that the street stalls were only a part of the street stalls. There were also many specialties from various places on display here. It was like a specialty distribution center.

There is nothing to see in these things, Zhang Xuebing and the others just took a quick look at them.

However, because there were too many people, almost to the point of being shoulder to shoulder, they could never go any faster and could only walk slowly along with the crowd.

As soon as he walked into the market's arch-like gate, Zhang Xuebing's cell phone rang suddenly.

After answering the call, it was Gao Fei who called, saying that he had booked a hotel and they would meet up right away.

Zhang Xuebing asked them to just follow the mountain road. There is only one road anyway, and they will meet sooner or later.

Just after hanging up the phone, before Zhang Xuebing looked up, he heard Xiao Chenchen exclaim, "Thief!"

Zhang Xuebing looked up and saw a thin, dry palm brushing against the travel bag on Ma Gan's back.

There was a dazzling cold light between the fingers of that hand, which caused his heart to beat. He might have encountered a bag thief!

Zhang Xuebing suddenly stretched out his hand to grab the palm, but the opponent was much faster than him and had already retracted, leaving Zhang Xuebing with no chance.

The backpack behind Ma Gan seemed to have opened his mouth, and instantly cracked a hole. Several rolls of silver coins wrapped in newspapers slipped off and fell to the ground.

The newspaper was torn and the shiny silver dollars instantly fell everywhere.

Zhang Xuebing hurriedly covered the crack to prevent the contents from falling further.

"You two have an eye on things, don't move!"

He growled lowly and hurriedly grabbed the silver coins on the ground.

At this moment, some of the tourists around noticed the silver coins on the ground and suddenly shouted loudly.

"Damn it, the ground is full of silver dollars!"

This sound didn't matter, the crowd that was slowly moving around suddenly stopped, and people lowered their heads one after another.

"Ha, there are really silver coins..."

In an instant, the crowd with a radius of hundreds of meters turned into a mess!
