Hao Youxing said: "Brother Nan, then you are not going to use your front door anymore. This is left by your grandfather for you."

"This store is too small and not suitable for expanding its business. Besides, it is far from the city center. If I go to the city center to open an antique shop, I will not use it here, so I will lock it up." Lin Zhennan said.

In fact, Lin Zhennan also has a lot of feelings for this shop.

He took over this shop after his grandfather died. He was only 16 years old at the time, and now it has been five years.

In fact, strictly speaking, this store was left by his father. He was only two or three years old when his father died, so the store was always taken over by his grandfather, and he transferred the store to him after his grandfather died.

His two uncles quarreled with him many times, saying that it was left by his father, and that this grandson had no right to inherit, and only the two brothers had the right to inherit.

However, before my grandfather died, he left the survivors to his grandson to inherit. The two uncles had no way to rob him. After all, they were written in black and white, and there were legal procedures.

Lin Zhennan said to Hao Youyouhao: "You go and find a shop first, so I can organize my small broken shop."

Hao Youxing nodded and put 50,000 yuan on his body.

I took a taxi outside the door and rushed to the city center.

Lin Zhennan packed up his own things in his small shop.

There is nothing valuable in his shop. These calligraphy and paintings are all local small names, and he can't afford to accept big names.

The books are all printed boards from the Republic of China and woodcut boards from the Song and Yuan dynasties. He has not even had any of them.

After all, the Song and Yuan versions are now rare.

Lin Zhennan was there to clean up his collection.

At this time, an old lady walked in, dressed simply and was carrying a cloth bag in her hand.

There was something bulging in the cloth bag.

Lin Zhennan looked at the old lady and guessed that she wanted to sell something.

So he smiled and asked, "Old man, do you want to sell things or buy something?"

The old man said with his puffed lips: "How can I buy useless things like you? I want to sell something."

Lin Zhennan smiled and said to the old lady, "What are you going to sell, old man? You can take out the things and let me see."

The old lady struggled to put the cloth pocket in her hand on the counter.

Then pick up something wrapped in cotton from your pocket.

From the outside it looks like something that is a figure.

Lin Zhennan did not take action, and asked the old lady to slowly peel off the cotton cloth layer by layer.

Because this is the rule of the antique shop, if the owner goes to open the wrapped things at this time, if there is any damage inside.

This is not easy to divide the responsibility. It is because you broke the responsibility with others when you opened it, or if the things that were already broken on the road or at home, it is not easy to distinguish the responsibility.

The old lady slowly opened the cotton cloth and presented it to Lin Zheng. What she saw was a white jade Guanyin.

White Jade Guanyin has a solemn face.

The jade is white with a slightly yellowish white jade, and it feels slightly oily under the light. Especially when you look closer, some of the skin-covered areas are even more tiny holes like the skin-like pores on the human body.

Lin Zhennan knew that this was the characteristic of the typical seed material in the Hetian white jade in Xinjiang, and it was a mutton fat white jade seed material, which was extremely precious.

This statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva is about one foot high and has a simple and elegant shape. Judging from the carved patterns, it is about the product of the mid-Ming Dynasty.

It is rare to have such a large amount of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the Hetian jade seed material in the mid-Ming Dynasty.

Lin Zhennan was happy and said to the old lady: "Old man, are you going to sell this Guanyin Bodhisattva? How much does it cost if I ask?"

The old lady said with a shriveled mouth: "I don't know how much it can be sold. I just want to see a doctor with my old man, but my old man's treatment, and the hospital said it would cost 500,000. Forget it, if you can pay 50,000, I'll sell it to you?"

Lin Zhennan asked strangely: "Why do the hospital sell it to me if it costs 500,000 yuan? "

The old lady wiped her tears and said, "I also know that my old man is terminally ill. If he continues to treat it, not only will it not be cured, but he will also suffer from a lot of famine. Besides, I also know that this Bodhisattva statue cannot give me 500,000 yuan!"

Lin Zhennan found this old lady very interesting.

So he said to the old lady, "Old lady, how do you know that I will not pay 500,000 yuan to invite this Bodhisattva?"

The old lady said a little embarrassedly: "We have offered this Bodhisattva for a long time, and it is already old. Would you pay so much money to buy it? If it weren't for my old man saying that this jade Bodhisattva is very valuable, I wouldn't dare to ask you for 50,000 yuan."

Lin Zhennan knew that the old lady was an honest person, so he asked: "Old lady, what disease did your old man have? It requires so much money?"

The old lady sobbed and said, "The doctor in the hospital said he was already in the late stage of lung cancer. Even if he had surgery, it would make little sense. He asked us to go home for conservative treatment."

Lin Zhennan knew that this was the hospital's inspiration, because the old couple definitely didn't have much money, so the hospital could push it as much as possible. If his family was a billionaire, the hospital would definitely try every means to treat them, not for anything else, but to make more money.

So he said to the old lady, "Old lady, don't be sad. Your jade Guanyin Bodhisattva is very valuable. I offer you 550,000 yuan. I hope you can help you."

The old lady didn't react for a moment: "Ah, 55,000 yuan is fine, it's more than 5,000 yuan than I thought. Ah, what about 550,000 yuan? I heard it right?"

The old lady thought she had heard it wrongly and asked for 50,000 yuan. The boss gave her 550,000 yuan, was she confused or was the boss confused?

Lin Zhennan smiled and said, "I heard it right from the old lady. I just paid 550,000 yuan to ask for this statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva. This statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva is very valuable, and it was from the Ming Dynasty, and it is definitely worth this price."

The old lady opened her eyes again and asked Lin Zhennan: "Really? Is the boss really 550,000 yuan?"

Lin Zhennan confirmed again: "Of course it's true. At your age, are I still joking with you? Here is 50,000 yuan in cash, and you and I will transfer the remaining 500,000 yuan to the bank."

Then Lin Zhennan took out the bank and counted the 50,000 yuan he had fun and handed it to the old lady.

The old lady stared at her eyes in disbelief, but soon took the money from Lin Zhennan's hand, dipped her fingers in saliva, counted it, and muttered, "This boss is such a kind-hearted person. It seems that I have not been wrong to worship Guanyin Bodhisattva in the past few decades. There are still many kind-hearted people in the world."

Lin Zhennan patiently waited for the old lady to count the money there.

After a while, the old lady counted the 50,000 yuan clearly.

Only then did Lin Zhennan take the old lady to the business hall of a nearby bank, ask the old lady to take out her ID card, apply for a bank card, and then transfer 500,000 yuan from her bank account and ask the bank's people to testify that he did transfer 500,000 yuan to her, otherwise the old lady would not believe it.

After coming out of the bank, Lin Zhennan asked by the way: "Old lady, is your Guanyin Bodhisattva passed down from your ancestors? Do you have any other collections?"

The old lady shook her head and said, "This Guanyin Bodhisattva was not passed down by my ancestors. It was discovered by my old man again in a small river after a mountain torrent when he was young."

Lin Zhennan was shocked. If he had picked it up from the river, it was very likely that the ancient tomb would be destroyed. Then there would definitely be more than this one, that was so simple.

So he said to the old lady, "Did your old man only pick up this one back then?"

The old lady frowned and replied, "I remember he picked up several old things like this back then, but they disappeared for no reason later. Moreover, the things in our family are fewer and fewer, so we are getting poorer now. This is the reason. Some people say that our family has picked up unclean things, so they are getting poorer and poorer."

Lin Zhennan didn't take it seriously, because he knew that the older generation was superstitious. As for the loss of things, who knows what happened?

So he smiled and said, "Maybe it is not certain that the things you lost were stolen by a thief. You see, you sold them 550,000 yuan at once, which is much more valuable than the things you lost."

When the old lady heard this, she laughed happily: "It's true if you don't say it, but unfortunately, my old man has not had much time, otherwise he would be very happy."

Lin Zhennan asked again: "Old lady, where are you living in? I have time to see your old man. I also know some famous doctors. Can you help you see if the old man is still saved?"

When the old lady heard this, she grabbed Lin Zhennan's hand excitedly and said, "Really? Young man, if I can really save my old man, I will return all the more than 500,000 to you. My family is in Tianwang Cave Village. My old man is called Wang Laoshi. When you go to Tianwang Cave Village, everyone knows it."

In Tianwang Cave Village, Lin Zhennan also knew that it was eighty or ninety kilometers away from this city. It was relatively remote, with high mountains and dense forests.

Lin Zhennan and the old lady called a taxi. The taxi was not willing to go, but said that the road there was not easy to walk.

But when Lin Zhennan "snaps" the old man's heads were thrown out, he immediately became smiled and said that he would definitely send the old lady home safely.

Lin Zhennan was still afraid that the driver was throwing the old lady back halfway, so he wrote down the number of the taxi.
