Chapter 77 Picking up Treasures in the Antique Market
Driving Hong Xiaohei.
After one hour.
Hong Yu came to the medicinal materials market in the county town.
After parking the car, he asked Xiao Hei to wait for him in the car.
He carried a black bag alone and headed towards Longxing Pharmacy.
The black bag contained those two century-old wild ginseng plants.
In the drug store, Xu Da saw Hong Yu enter the door and immediately greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Hong, come here and sit in my office. I have already made tea."
Hong Yu waved his hand, "No, I have something else to do later."
"These are the two hundred-year-old wild ginseng you want. Please inspect the goods."
Hong Yu handed the black bag in his hand to Xu Da.
Xu Da reached out to take it and said with a smile: "Mr. Hong, there is no need to inspect the goods. Do I still believe your words?"
Hong Yu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll leave first."
"Mr. Hong, if you have something to do, I won't keep you here anymore. I'll send you off."
Xu Da followed Hong Yu.
"Boss Xu, you're welcome, go back."
Hong Yu waved his hand.
Xu Da stopped and watched Hong Yu leave with a respectful look on his face.
...
Hong Yu returned to the car.
Hong Xiaohei asked curiously: "Xiaoyu, what did you do?"
Hong Yu said: "I picked some yams yesterday and just sold them."
Hong Xiaohei joked: "Could it be another century-old wild ginseng?"
Hong Yu smiled and said: "It's true, and there are two of them."
"cut!"
Hong Xiaohei looked unbelieving: "Just brag. Hundred-year-old wild ginseng is not Chinese cabbage. How can it be so easy to dig?"
Hong Yu smiled and said nothing.
Didn't explain anything.
Otherwise, there is a suspicion of showing off.
...
Driving to the door of Zhou's community, Hong Yu dialed Zhou Wanrou's phone number.
Zhou Wanrou took his mobile phone and saved the phone number for him in person yesterday.
Soon, the call was connected.
"Xiaoyu, you finally called me. I thought you had forgotten what you promised me yesterday."
Zhou Wanrou's resentful voice came from the phone.
Ahem... Hong Yu coughed twice in embarrassment: "Wanrou, how could it be possible? Am I here?"
"Then where are you now?" Zhou Wanrou asked.
"I'm at the door of your community, you can come directly."
"Okay, I'll go out right away. See you later."
After hanging up the phone.
Hong Xiaohei looked envious and said: "Xiaoyu, in such a high-end community, all the big bosses live in it, right? I didn't expect that you also have acquaintances."
Hong Yu patted Hong Xiaohei on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Xiaohei, maybe the community you will live in in the future will be more upscale than this."
Hong Xiaohei smiled naively: "I would like to, but I'm afraid I won't survive."
"On the other hand, Xiaoyu, you are now a multi-millionaire. There is no problem at all in buying a house in this community."
Hong Yu thinks this suggestion is a good one.
He had seen the environment in the community, and it was indeed good.
The layout of the house is okay.
It's not impossible to buy a set so that dad can live in the city for a few days and enjoy the pace of city life when he has nothing to do.
Anyway, my sister Xiaoya is still going to school in the county town, so she can come home to live after school.
While chatting with Hong Xiaohei, Zhou Wanrou came out.
She naturally opened the passenger door.
When she saw Hong Xiaohei sitting in the passenger seat, she looked slightly startled.
Hong Xiaohei also subconsciously looked at her. When he saw Zhou Wanrou's appearance, sexy figure, and gorgeous clothes, his eyes instantly widened and he was dumbfounded.
He found that he seemed to be seeing a fairy.
There is no other way. He stays in Qingxi Town all year round and rarely comes to the county town.
I have seen very few sexy women wearing fashionable clothes.
What's more, she is a stunning beauty like Zhou Wanrou.
It's normal to feel dazzled all of a sudden.
"Xiaoyu, who is this?"
Zhou Wanrou asked curiously.
Hong Yu immediately introduced: "This is my childhood friend and my good friend named Xiao Hei. He is also going to Jiangzhou City today. I will give him a ride."
"So you are Xiaoyu's good friend. Hello, my name is Zhou Wanrou, and I am also Xiaoyu's good friend."
Zhou Wanrou generously stretched out her hand to shake hands with Hong Xiaohei.
"Ms. Zhou, you...hello."
Hong Xiaohei hurriedly said hello, stammering even as he spoke.
Her hand lightly touched Zhou Wanrou's, and then she retracted, feeling extremely shy.
In his heart, Zhou Wanrou is the unattainable goddess in his heart.
Zhou Wanrou smiled and said: "Xiao Hei, right? Since you are Xiaoyu's friend, then everyone is one of us, just like Xiaoyu, you can just call me Wanrou."
Hong Xiaohei smiled stupidly and just nodded, too embarrassed to speak.
This was the first time that Hong Yu saw Hong Xiaohei's shy little daughter-in-law, and he laughed happily.
Hong Xiaohei's face turned even redder, "Xiaoyu, why are you laughing?!"
Hong Yu shook his head and smiled: "I'm not laughing at anything."
Hong Xiaohei was speechless.
"Xiao Hei, I want to discuss something with you, do you think it's okay?"
Zhou Wanrou blinked at Hong Xiaohei.
Hong Xiaohei's heart was pounding because of this, and he nodded fiercely: "Okay!"
"Then let me sit in the front, and you can sit in the back, okay?"
Zhou Wanrou smiled.
"Oh... ok, no problem."
Hong Xiaohei immediately got out of the passenger seat and took the initiative to sit in the back seat.
"Xiao Hei, thank you."
Zhou Wanrou thanked her and got into the passenger seat. She turned to look at Hong Yu and said, "Xiaoyu, let's go, otherwise we'll be late."
...
We drove all the way to Jiangzhou city.
Hong Yu stopped the car in front of a bar.
"Xiao Hei, here we are, this bar is opened by Huang Botao? It looks good!"
Hong Yu looked at the bar in front of him through the car window and praised it.
Hong Xiaohei nodded: "Yes, otherwise Huang Botao is doing well."
"Last year at the junior high school class reunion, you weren't there. Huang Botao was at the wine table giving advice, saying he had made tens of millions."
Hong Yu's eyes showed surprise.
He still had some impression of this junior high school classmate, and he didn't seem to have the personality to be a big boss.
However, people change.
After not seeing each other for so many years, I might have my own opportunity.
Just like him, he became a multi-millionaire in a few days.
He also became a practitioner and possessed supernatural powers.
Even the richest man in Jiangling County had to fawn over him.
Before this, he didn't dare to think about it.
"Okay, I won't say any more. I'm going to get off the bus first since I'm going to keep you and Sister Wanrou running errands. Thank you for walking me all the way."
Hong Xiaohei opened the car door.
Hong Yu said: "Let's not be so polite between us. If you don't have a good time in the bar, or if you run into trouble, remember to call me."
"Yes, I will."
"Sister Wanrou, goodbye."
As Hong Xiaohei said, he had already got out of the car and walked towards the bar.
"Xiaoyu, there are some things I don't know whether I should say or not?"
At this time, Zhou Wanrou suddenly said.
Seeing that Zhou Wanrou's face looked strange, Hong Yu frowned slightly and said, "Wanrou, that's what you say."
Zhou Wanrou said: "I actually know the owner of this bar."
"Yeah?"
Hong Yu was slightly surprised, "I didn't expect the world to be so small."
Zhou Wanrou said: "You are wrong. I mean I know the owner of this bar, but his name is Liu Jingxiu, and he is not your junior high school classmate at all."
"oh?"
Hong Yu frowned, "You mean, Xiao Hei was cheated?"
Zhou Wanrou nodded.
"No, I have to go tell Xiao Hei."
Hong Yu looked worried, unbuckled his seat belt, and was about to open the door and get out of the car.
Zhou Wanrou immediately stopped her and said: "Xiaoyu, don't worry. Although I haven't been in contact with Xiaohei for a long time, I can see that he is a strong person. If you rush out like this and say that he has been cheated, he will
I will definitely feel uncomfortable, as I will feel extremely useless for such a big person to be deceived."
Hong Yu calmed down instantly and felt that what Zhou Wanrou said made sense.
Xiao Hei went out to work for the first time. He was full of confidence and full of hope for the future. He definitely didn't want the people closest to him to know that he had been deceived.
"Wanrou, what do you think we should do now?" Hong Yu asked.
Zhou Wanrou said: "Well, let me call my friend first to ask about the situation and see if there is your junior high school classmate among the employees in their bar."
"If there is, it can only mean that your junior high school classmate is bragging and not completely lying to Xiao Hei. Don't worry about Xiao Hei."
"If not, I will ask him to do a favor and recruit Xiao Hei. Let Xiao Hei work there first so that he will not end up living on the street."
"Okay." Hong Yu agreed with Zhou Wanrou's opinion.
Then, Zhou Wanrou made a phone call.
Soon, the call was connected.
"Hello, Miss Zhou. I am really lucky to receive your call."
On the other end of the phone, a man's flattering voice came.
Zhou Wanrou smiled and said: "Mr. Liu, don't talk nonsense to me. I'm mainly looking for you to inquire about someone from you."
Liu Jingxiu laughed: "Miss Zhou, who are you asking about?"
Zhou Wanrou asked: "Is there a person named Huang Botao in your bar?"
Liu Jingxiu said: "Yes, he is a distant relative of mine. He came to my dad two years ago and asked for a job, so I asked him to be the personnel manager in my bar."
"Ms. Zhou, did this kid do something to offend you?"
Zhou Wanrou smiled and said: "No, I just asked around casually. Okay, Mr. Liu, if you have something to do, go ahead and get busy. I'll hang up."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Wanrou said: "Don't worry, nothing will happen to Xiao Hei. Although your classmate is not the bar owner, he is somewhat related to the bar owner. He worked as an HR manager and recruited Xiao Hei.
It’s not a difficult thing.”
Of course, Hong Yu heard clearly the conversation on the phone just now.
With his current level of cultivation, he could hear the cries of insects a hundred meters away.
Hong Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Wanrou, thank you."
Zhou Wanrou smiled sweetly and rolled her eyes at Hong Yu, "Master Patriarch, these words are out of context."
Hong Yu laughed and couldn't help pinching the woman's pretty face, "Since you know that I am the Patriarch, you still dare to make fun of me in front of me?"
"Ah! I don't dare anymore, please let go."
Zhou Wanrou's face hurt a little from being pinched, but it was mostly red.
She really didn't expect that Hong Yu would pinch her cheeks.
Growing up, apart from her grandfather and father, no man of the opposite sex had ever done this to her.
How shameful!
"That's pretty much it."
Hong Yu let go of his hand, apparently not noticing that Zhou Wanrou's face was already covered with red clouds.
...
Leaving the door of the bar, Hong Yu came to the Jiangzhou Antique Market that Zhou Wanrou mentioned.
There is a parking lot at the entrance of the antique market.
Hong Yu parked the car in the parking lot and got out of the car with Zhou Wanrou.
Walking into the antique market is like traveling to an ancient street.
A group of retro buildings, row upon row, well-proportioned.
Every store is engaged in the antique business.
In the corners of some shops, there are also carpets placed by some elderly people.
The items displayed on the street stalls are all kinds of antiques they have purchased, and they are of varying grades.
There were so many people and it was so lively.
"Sir, Miss, take a look, do you need anything?"
"They are all good things from the past and are definitely worth collecting."
When he walked up to an old man who was setting up a street stall, the old man waved to Hong Yu and shouted.
Hong Yu stopped and glanced at some ancient coins and some old-looking porcelain placed on the stall.
Zhou Wanrou said: "Xiaoyu, the exchange meeting at the antique market is about to start. Let's leave quickly. There are no good things on this stall."
Hong Yu said with a smile: "That's not necessarily the case. In some TV dramas I've seen, the male protagonists found treasures on street stalls."
Zhou Wanrou burst into laughter and said, "You also know that it is a TV series. In reality, it is simply impossible."
"It doesn't matter whether the things on this street stall are genuine or not. Even if some things are genuine, their collection value is not high."
"When my grandfather and I go to the antique market to pick up missing pieces, we usually go to antique shops. There are too few good things on this stall."
The man running the street stall immediately became unhappy. He looked at Zhou Wanrou and said in a bad tone:
"Let me tell you, young lady, you look so beautiful, why do you speak so unpleasantly?"
"What do you mean the things we put on display are not good things?"
"I'm telling you, if I add up all these things, you won't be able to get them without 100 million."
Zhou Wanrou was speechless.
She simply glanced at these things on the stall and knew their basic value.
Nothing is worth more than one hundred thousand.
For another 100 million, this old man is really capable of bragging.
At this time, the uncles running street stalls nearby were also very unhappy with Zhou Wanrou's words and said one after another:
"It's just that the little girl doesn't understand anything and looks down on us who run street stalls."
"I'm telling you, some of the things we put on display are better than those in the store."
"Have you seen my Tang Sancai horse? It's absolutely authentic. Even if you want it, I won't sell it to you." An old man with a mole on his face said proudly.
Zhou Wanrou was convinced by the boastfulness of these stall owners and said with a smile: "You should keep this Tang Sancai horse for yourself, no one will buy it, don't worry."
As she said that, she took Hong Yu's arm and said, "Xiaoyu, let's go."
Hong Yu's footsteps were motionless.
His eyes were looking directly at the Tang Sancai horse pointed by the old man with the mole on his face.
