Chapter 367: Gains and losses
As soon as they heard the old master say that there was another person who knew about Jin Wagua, the eyes of the three detectives immediately lit up.
The old man said: "I said that person is my apprentice, Zhou Xi. It is not difficult for Lao Du to want two Japanese melons. The first thing is gold. Even now, I am not afraid to tell you that I have been a goldsmith all my life.
You can still get some gold.
Besides, I already have a license, and I can get some of it through regular channels. The second thing is my body. To be honest, I can’t do delicate work like your earrings without any blurry eyes or trembling hands.
The problem is a large Japanese melon weighing several dozen kilograms. Alas, I can’t handle it. Someone needs to help.”
Liu Pengcheng asked: "Does Lao Du know about this?"
The old man said: "I know, I have to tell him about such a big thing. If I really have no other choice, I can't let one more person know about it. After all, it is against the law!"
This is understandable, but what everyone is puzzled about is why Lao Du doesn't even tell his own children and Lao Xia's son Xiao Xia, but he trusts this apprentice so much?
So the old man talked about this apprentice.
The old man smiled and said that the apprentice picked it up. After listening to what he said, everyone felt that what he said was really right. The apprentice really picked it up.
The old man’s apprentice is called Zhou Xi. The conditions at home are very good. Both his parents are cadres in the petrochemical system. Their family is not local, but in Gannan Province. Both parents are cadres in the petrochemical system. Specifically, his father is a county official.
He is the station manager of a local gas station. His mother is the accountant of a municipal petrochemical company.
This Zhou Xi is smart, but a little playful. The high school he was admitted to was also an ordinary high school. He was not even admitted to a key high school. Even in an ordinary high school, he stumbled into a key class. In the 1990s before the expansion of university enrollment,
This kind of kid basically has no chance of going to college.
He himself accepted his fate, but his parents did not. His father graduated from a petrochemical technical school, and his mother graduated from a finance college and was assigned to a petrochemical company! By the way, in the college entrance examination in the 1980s, the admission rate of key high schools could reach 100%.
Fifty.
Do you think it’s okay? You’re overthinking it, because there was a pre-examination system in the 1980s.
What is the pre-examination? It is a mock test for the college entrance examination before registration for the college entrance examination in prefecture-level cities. The passing rate is probably only 50%. It is not new for ordinary high schools to be wiped out. You have to
Only by passing the preliminaries can you take the college entrance examination! The admission rate is the admission rate of students who took the college entrance examination, and it does not include the scumbags who did not even pass the preliminaries.
So, can you imagine what a top student expects from his only son? However, Zhou Xi’s father has a standard case of tracheitis.
Seeing that Zhou Xi was really not good at studying, Xueba Niang found a new way and asked him to try painting. In fact, there were many things he was asked to try, including sports, singing, playing the piano, and painting. Don't tell me, he was good at painting.
I really have some talent in painting.
So, Zhou's mother paid a lot of money to hire the vice president of the Municipal Painting Association to teach him. When it came time to take the college entrance examination, Zhou Xi took the art exam and finally passed the exam! Even though he was only admitted to the art department of a teacher's college, it was
Okay, wouldn’t it be nice to become an art teacher after graduation?
But Zhou Xi is always a smart person. If he had the determination to be a teacher, would he still rely on the art test to get into a teacher's college? Sure enough, after graduation, he was assigned to a rural middle school in the provincial capital. Ordinarily, in the provincial capital
The rural middle school in the middle school is not too bad, and he is a teacher assigned to him after graduation. But Zhou Xi is not a stable character. It would be very difficult for him to be a teacher in a school in a provincial capital city.
, let alone in the countryside.
After working for less than two years, he received a letter from a classmate, saying that Mingzhou was developing rapidly and he was currently working as a designer in a foreign-funded company. Their department was still short of people and asked him to come over quickly and earn a monthly salary of two thousand.
Money is not money on the one hand, but the key is that the person who wrote him the letter was a female classmate, or the kind of female classmate Zhou Xi often dreamed about in his dreams. I originally thought that they would be separated after graduation from college, which was just a dream, but I didn't expect it.
You can still receive letters!
Zhou Xi happily packed up his things, threw down his resignation letter, and rushed to Mingzhou. When he arrived, he saw that it was not the case at all. His female classmate said that those who engage in design must understand the product, and must first be trained and engaged in sales.
Zhou Xi felt something was wrong. After listening to two classes, Zhou Xi figured out that this thing seemed to be called a pyramid scheme. Moreover, the female classmate was deeply poisoned and was hopeless.
Zhou Xi tried his best to get out of the MLM den. He also called the police. He still wanted to rescue his female classmates. However, MLM was legal in the 1990s! The female classmates were running wild and successful in making a fortune.
On the road of no return, I didn’t say anything and walked away from the police, and the police had nothing to do.
Now Zhou Xi is doomed. The female classmate has not been rescued, and she cannot go back home. If her family knows that she has resigned from her established job, they will have to kill him! He stayed in Mingzhou and stayed there.
He didn't have much money in his pocket if he was a shop owner, and it was hard to find a job for an art major. One day when he was wandering around Fengqi Street, he discovered a jewelry store, so he walked in and saw that it was still a jewelry store.
I made a reservation, and there was only an old man in the store!
He didn't have much money in his pocket right now, so he asked the old man if he wanted some jewelry patterns. The old man said funnyly that he wanted to see some patterns. So he took a pencil and drew two for them. When the old man took a look, hey, don't say that.
Ah, it really does mean something like that.
Anyway, I don’t know what the two of them talked about, so Zhou Xi stayed as an apprentice. When his parents heard about his resignation, he had been an apprentice for two months. Originally, his parents wanted to take him away, but after a while
Zhou Xi didn’t want to leave. Secondly, the old man was the apprentice of Master Liao, who was famous in Shanghai. So Zhou Xi was the apprentice of Master Liao. If you want to ask who Master Liao is, let’s put it this way. If you consider Master Liao’s clients
If the list is all listed, it will be a biography of the Republic of China. If Zhou Xi really succeeds in his studies, if nothing else, he will be able to live and eat well for the rest of his life even with the name of Master Liao.
So his parents bought a lot of things for the old man as a make-up gift for him as a disciple, and left in three steps. Zhou Xi also stayed here.
So the old man said that Zhou Xi was the apprentice he picked up.
Xiao Liu hurriedly asked: "Where is Zhou Xi now?"
The old man said: "Well, if he stayed with me for ten years, he would definitely be another master. But this kid is good at everything, but he just can't stay! He left after three years with me, and now he's in Shanghai! I have something here
His phone number and pager in Hudu."
Xiao Liu asked about Zhou Xi's phone number and pager, and they returned to the Public Security Bureau.
A group of criminal police officers drove to Shanghai within an hour. The members of the task force were very happy, feeling that a major breakthrough was just around the corner!
Now that the police have Zhou Xi's paging number, work phone number, and Zhou Xi's ID number, they can easily find Zhou Xi when they arrive in Shanghai, and capture Zhou Xi in his rented house at night.
The leader of the arrest team reported the arrest of Zhou Xi to the task force. Liu Pengcheng suddenly asked: "Say that sentence again."
The policeman was stunned: "Which sentence, the sentence just now? I said his roommate asked us what did this melon kid do."
Chapter completed!
