"That's it? No problem, but I don't understand this kind of stuff at all?" Wu Jingui expressed his worries.
Zhou Chen said: "You don't have to worry about this. I have a method for a long time. As long as you do what I say, it will be fine."
Wu Jingui said without hesitation: "That's no problem. Just tell me what to do then."
Zhou Chen pondered for a moment: "I already have the method, but I still need your help and cooperation. Our industry is a bit complicated. In order to prevent others from seeing the flaws, you still have to dress up. When the time comes, you..."
He told Wu Jingui what he wanted to do in detail, and then said: "Old Wu, this favor is not for nothing. If the matter is completed, I will give you a commission."
"Zhou Chen, if you say that, it's too outrageous. What is our relationship? Don't mention the commission."
When Zhou Chen said he wanted to give money, Wu Jingui immediately became unhappy. He was a grateful person. Zhou Chen had helped him so much. If he wanted to do Zhou Chen a favor and still wanted to collect money, other people in the dormitory would know about it.
, maybe I don’t know how to arrange him.
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Old Wu, our friendship is a friendship, but we have our own rules in this industry. What's more, this may not be the last time I ask you for help. Maybe I will ask you for the same thing in the future.
If you come forward and don’t accept a commission, how dare I come to you in the future?”
"But……"
"Stop being stubborn and just listen to me. Friendship is friendship. If I ask you to do something, I have to give you a commission. That's it."
Zhou Chen didn't give him a chance to refuse, and decided directly, and then said: "I bought you a set of clothes and put them on your bed. You put them on tomorrow and go find someone as I told you.
"
"Ah? You bought me clothes?"
"It's a full set of things, it's not a one-time deal. Lao Wu, we have known each other for four years. I dare not say anything else. As long as you help me, I can guarantee that you will be able to afford a house in Yanjing in the future.
Bring your wife and children."
After hearing Zhou Chen's words, Wu Jingui's face suddenly showed a look of longing.
Of those who come to Yanjing from other places to attend university, there are very few who do not want to stay after graduation.
Although Wu Jingui is a top student at Peking University, he studied history, and his professional level is not very good. He is below average in the class. If he wants to stay in Yanjing, his chances are very slim.
He knew Zhou Chen's abilities, and also knew that Zhou Chen's second uncle was a high-ranking official. If he could work behind Zhou Chen, he might have a better future than returning to his hometown to become a cadre.
The reason why Zhou Chen sought out Wu Jingui was not only because Wu Jingui was honest, but also directly related to his study of history.
Archeology and history are inseparable, and having Wu Jingui help him is definitely more reliable than Huang Feilong and Chen Yan.
"Okay, then I'll try it first. If it doesn't work, don't be polite to me, just tell me directly."
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "If it were someone else, I might really be worried, but for you, I believe it will be absolutely fine."
"Come on, come with me to my house first. I'll explain the details to you in detail."
The next day, around four o'clock in the afternoon, Wu Jingui arrived at the entrance of the alley on time and waited patiently.
Today he is wearing a brand-new Zhongshan suit and gold-rimmed glasses, exuding a bookish air, and his hair is neatly combed. He looks very energetic and temperamental. When you look at it, you will feel that this is a very handsome man.
A cultured person.
This outfit was specially prepared for him by Zhou Chen, and it was precisely because of this outfit that Wu Jingui was even more grateful to Zhou Chen.
In fact, he could afford this outfit, but he wouldn't part with it at all, because he still had a wife and two children in his hometown, and he sent most of the subsidies from the school back home.
During the four years of college, he only returned home once. The rest of the time, he worked part-time jobs to make money. For him, new clothes were a luxury.
After thinking wildly for a while, Wu Jingui pushed his eyes to calm himself down and stand up straight, because the target had already appeared.
Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin pushed their bicycles and walked along the alley towards their homes.
Both of them are people's teachers, but one teaches high school and the other teaches junior high school. Although they are in the same school, they often have different courses and different commuting hours.
Today it was rare for them to get off work at the same time, so they went home together.
As soon as they turned the corner and before entering the alley where their home was located, they suddenly heard someone calling them.
"Teacher Su, Teacher Liu."
Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin paused and looked towards the source of the sound, only to see a well-dressed man with gold-rimmed glasses walking towards them.
"Teacher Su, Teacher Liu, we are finally waiting for you."
Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes. Su Hongwen asked: "This comrade, who are you?"
The visitor was naturally Wu Jingui. He smiled and said, "Hello, Teacher Su, Teacher Liu. My surname is Wu. You can just call me Xiao Wu. I came here today specifically to get to know you two."
Seeing that Wu Jingui was polite and polite, Su Hongwen lowered his guard a little.
"Hello, Comrade Xiao Wu, we don't seem to know each other, right?"
Wu Jingui said: "Yes, two teachers, we did not know each other before. I came here today to ask you for help with something."
Liu Xueqin was more vigilant and asked: "Xiao Wu, we are just ordinary teachers. I'm afraid there is nothing we can do to help you, right?"
Wu Jingui seemed to have just noticed Liu Xueqin's vigilance. He patted his head in embarrassment and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce you to you two carefully. I am a graduate of the History Department of Peking University. My name is Wu Jingui."
, is an antique collector.”
"A graduate of the History Department of Peking University? An antique collector?"
Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin looked at each other, and both saw surprise in each other's eyes. However, judging from Wu Jingui's polite appearance, it didn't look like he was lying or a bad person.
"Comrade Xiao Wu, do you need our help with anything?"
Wu Jingui said: "Teachers, I came to you today actually because of an old object in your hands."
"For the old things in our hands?"
This confused Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin.
"Comrade Xiao Wu, you have confused us. What old objects do we have in our hands that are worthy of your special trip?"
Wu Jingui said: "It's just a huanghuali post box. The box is made of huanghuali. There is a wooden post inside with an article engraved on it, Ailian said."
"To tell you the truth, I have actually had an idea for this note box for a long time, but I never had the chance to get it before. Until a few days ago, I heard that this item fell into the hands of two teachers, so I made a special trip here.
I am looking for two teachers and want to buy from you."
Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin still looked confused.
"Comrade Xiao Wu, it's not that we are trying to shirk it, but that we really don't know about the post box you are talking about, and we have never bought it. Have you made a mistake?"
Wu Jingui suddenly looked surprised, but then he shook his head firmly.
"Impossible, my friend assured me that there is absolutely nothing wrong. Teacher Su, Teacher Liu, if you think about it carefully, it is a yellowish box with a wooden post inside."
"Two teachers, the reason why I asked so much is not for myself, but because my teacher likes this item very much, so I want to buy it for him. If you two are willing to sell it to me, I will
I’m willing to pay a thousand yuan.”
Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin were immediately shocked. Although they were both teachers, one thousand yuan was still a lot of money for them.
But Su Hongwen still smiled bitterly and said: "Comrade Xiao Wu, it's not that we don't want to help, it's that we really haven't bought this thing."
"Impossible, teachers, please think carefully." Wu Jingui looked anxious.
Su Hongwen still wanted to speak, but Liu Xueqin pulled him back, and then said to Wu Jingui: "Comrade Xiao Wu, if not, let's go back and look for it first. If we find it, we will talk about it in detail. You see
How about it?"
Wu Jingui showed an unwilling expression, but after thinking about it for a moment, he nodded.
"Okay, then, I will leave my phone number for the two teachers. If you two find it, please call me. I will come over again. I have only one request, that is, if you find it,
Be sure to leave something for me."
As he spoke, he took out a small notebook from his pocket, tore off a piece of paper, wrote down the phone number with the pen on his chest, and handed it to Su Hongwen.
Su Hongwen handed over the paper and said politely: "We will do it."
Before Wu Jingui left, his face was full of reluctance and he emphasized again.
"Teacher Su, Teacher Liu, whether you can find it or not, you must contact me. I'm waiting for your call."
