Zhang Yueming glanced at the drawing, and then was stunned. Isn't this the drawing he drew? How did it get into the hands of these two people?
Zhang Yueming breathed out. He did not say that the picture was drawn by me. Instead, he nodded directly and said that he had seen it before. However, he followed up by saying that a man showed it to him.
Zhang Yueming said that the man originally planned to sell it to him, but he felt that although such a jade brand was good and looked like an antique, he did not know the business and was afraid of being cheated, so he thought of bringing the man to Panjiayuan to let those who know the business
The shopkeeper gave the boss an eye.
"What happened next?" the man asked.
"Later, we went to Panjiayuan and showed it to several shopkeepers. They all rushed to bid. A few of them offered very high prices, but that man didn't sell." Zhang Yueming shrugged.
The man and woman looked at each other, and they seemed to be communicating with their eyes. After a while, they seemed to reach an agreement.
"Then can you still meet the person who showed you the jade plaque?"
Zhang Yueming shook his head: "I don't know either. To be honest, I am only interested in that jade plaque because it has a snake and a centipede engraved on it. I think it is very special."
The male and female interrogators looked at Zhang Yueming's eyes suspiciously. They wanted to read his uneasiness in his eyes, but instead of being afraid of them, Zhang Yueming looked at them both.
It must be said that Zhang Yueming was very calm. Facing the interrogation of a man and a woman in front of him, he did not appear extremely panicked, but he also showed enough panic.
In front of a male and a female interrogator, his actions, behavior and language can make people think that he is a person who has been wronged but unwilling to accept it.
"Then do you want to go out? Or rather, have your sentence reduced?"
Zhang Yueming nodded, but he was not blindly happy. Generally speaking, after the interrogator asked this question, he would definitely impose conditions.
Sure enough, the male interrogator smiled and said: "If you want to make up for it, you have to help us find that person."
Zhang Yueming did not hesitate and nodded: "Okay."
In fact, the jade plaque was in Zhang Yueming's hand, and he hid it in a very hidden place. The man did go to Panjiayuan with him, and the jade plaque was indeed not sold. It was just the subsequent story that the man handed the jade plaque to Zhang Yueming.
After giving it to Zhang Yueming, I asked him how he could die so that he would not be found.
Zhang Yueming's answer at that time was to jump off a cliff and go to Baiwang Mountain.
Later, Zhang Yueming really never saw that man again.
...
Inside the courtyard.
Ma Xiaoquan and the other three discussed what to do next, but after an hour of discussion they still could not come up with an effective and feasible solution.
Ma Shulin suggested that Zhang Yue'e go find his father, at least in terms of human relations, so that he could take more care of her brother Zhang Yueming.
Zhang Yue'e said helplessly that her father was interviewed by his superiors and asked to avoid suspicion because of his brother's incident, so his father was not allowed to return to his current workplace.
"Then let me find my aunt." Ma Shulin nodded, "The research project of Zhuoyi Laboratory is my aunt's hard work. She must not want to mess up the project, especially if it is affected by external factors."
Zhang Yue'e nodded: "I'm afraid that's all we can do."
Ma Xiaoquan thought for a while and said: "I do have a few friends in the capital. I will go look for them and see if they can do anything."
...
He said he had friends, but in fact it was just a lie told by Ma Xiaoquan, and he had to ask Yue Ting for help.
Yue Ting is the head of the Yu family. If the Yu family has a settlement in Phoenix City, it must also have one in the huge capital city.
The Rivet Factory has an office in the capital, and there is a telephone in the office. Ma Xiaoquan explained the purpose of his visit to the director of the office, and after paying another seventy cents, he was allowed to use the telephone, but only for one minute.
1 minute means a long story short.
Because Yue Ting donated a batch of tools to the entire factory and she would not leave Phoenix for the time being, the factory leaders created a special office for her and even ran a phone line.
"Hello~~" Yue Ting's lazy voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Let me make a long story short, I need your people to support me here."
"What's going on?"
"I can't explain it in one sentence. I'll make it short. I have to save someone and get my things back."
"Well, just wait for me. I'll be there in the evening." After Yue Ting finished speaking, she hung up the phone.
...
At ten o'clock in the evening, the door of the courtyard rang, and Yue Ting arrived on time.
"You came very quickly..." Ma Xiaoquan introduced Yue Ting into Zhang Yueming's hut, and Zhang Yue'e poured an iron vat of hot water for Yue Ting.
Yue Ting smiled charmingly at Zhang Yue'e.
Zhang Yue'e was also extremely surprised. She had never seen such a beautiful woman, whether it was her manners or makeup, they were all so perfect.
"Xiaohu, this is..."
Before Ma Xiaoquan could speak, Yue Ting said first: "I am his wife. But he is not old enough yet, so we can't get the marriage certificate yet."
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoquan was stunned for a moment and looked at Yue Ting with wide eyes.
Zhang Yue'e uttered an ouch and said with a smile: "No wonder, Xiaoma, your wife is so pretty."
Ma Xiaoquan rolled his eyes at Yue Ting and said, "Seriously, you got here quickly enough."
Yue Ting did not hide anything and said directly: "There is something very important here, I have to come in person." After saying that, Yue Ting sat next to Ma Xiaoquan and looked at him lovingly.
Zhang Yue'e looked at it, smiled slightly, put down the kettle, and quietly exited the hut.
"What are you doing?" Ma Xiaoquan moved his buttocks and sat on another stool. Yue Ting laughed and suddenly became serious: "The Beacon Order is here, I need it."
Ma Xiaoquan hummed: "I know."
"You know? How do you know? Do you know what the Beacon Order does?"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and smiled: "Of course I know, because I gave the beacon order to the mirror."
Yue Ting was stunned and her eyes widened. She had sent people to carefully investigate the relationship between Fenghuo and the Beacon Fire Order, but the investigation results never proved the origin of the Beacon Fire Order.
The unified understanding of all the major families in the underground world is that the Beacon Fire Token is a supreme token made by Jing, the first generation leader of the Beacon Fire Organization, and then passed down from generation to generation.
"I know you find it incredible, but it's true. You should know Fenghuo's first-generation mirror, Zhang Muzhi, right?"
Yue Ting hummed.
"I asked Zhao Zhikai to make the token. Zhao Zhikai belongs to the Mo family and the Baiyi clan. The Baiyi clan has superb craftsmanship, while the Mo family has extraordinary mechanical skills... Of course, I am the only one who can do this.
And Zhao Zhikai knows."
"Mo Family, Baiyi Clan..." Yue Ting muttered silently, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, "So, everyone said that if you get the beacon messenger, you can not only control the beacon, but also summon
The giant snake and centipede painted on the token?"
Ma Xiaoquan asked back: "You have lived for such a long time, haven't you ever seen a Fenghuo leader use this order?"
"Yes, there is, but the time I used it, I happened to be fighting for a body, so I couldn't see it with my own eyes." At this point, Yue Ting suddenly held her forehead and gently rubbed her temples.
"From Phoenix City to the capital, I didn't choose the teleportation device because I was in such a hurry..." Yue Ting smiled bitterly, "I took the lowest seat, otherwise it wouldn't have been so slow."
Ma Xiaoquan put the hot water in front of Yue Ting, asked her to take a sip, and said: "The technology in the underground world is much higher than that in the above world. You can sit in a good seat, why should you sit in the worst seat? This is
It's not fair for you, the patriarch of the family, haha..."
Yue Ting's mouth twitched: "Why, are you trying to bully me?"
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand: "To be serious, if the Beacon Fire Order appears in the capital, it will definitely set off a storm of contention. You said that the Yu family lacks immediate combat power, so when you come to the capital, you naturally want to find the Beacon Fire Order and the Beacon Fire Organization.
Cooperation, right?"
"Yeah~ But now I suddenly feel it's not necessary, because isn't the real owner of Fenghuo right in front of me?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "How many years have it been? I don't know how many generations the leader of Fenghuo has changed. Besides, the Fenghuo Order does not belong to the above-ground world, but it suddenly appeared in the above-ground world and was involved with Zhuoyi Laboratory, so we can only
It proves that there is a very serious internal strife within the Fenghuo organization. If you get the Fenghuo Order, who from Fenghuo will you go to?"
Yue Ting thought for a while: "The current first elder of Fenghuo is Gaia."
"Gaia...well, I need all the information on Fenghuo." Ma Xiaoquan looked at Yue Ting.
Yue Ting nodded: "Okay. By the way, how is the situation in Zhuoyi's laboratory?"
"We tried to accommodate the bulls, but the results were not good. I'm afraid Zhang Yue'e's brother still won't be able to get out."
"Bastard~" Yue Ting sneered and gritted her teeth, "Those shameless families have already controlled many powerful people in the world."
"Don't you have one in your Yu family?"
Yue Ting smiled bitterly: "It's far from enough. Well, how should I put it? Compared with people in the underground world, people in the above world are more greedy and shameless... The partners we choose to cooperate with at least have a bottom line. Other families
For cooperation partners, the bottom line is very low, or even no bottom line.”
Ma Xiaoquan smiled: "No matter whether there is a bottom line or not, as long as you give enough benefits, you can control it well, right?"
"That's true..." Yue Ting nodded, "The Yu family has fully launched various intelligence operations in the capital, but it will take some time to organize them, so we have to wait these days.
.Based on my judgment, that Zhang Yueming should not be tried for the time being. After all, many scholars are now in the official website. If the country does not handle it well, it will break the hearts of the scholars. When the time comes, the brain drain will not be high-level in this country.
I can afford it.”
Ma Xiaoquan nodded. Yue Ting's words were correct, but it was true that in the 1980s, many domestic scientific research talents fled. Now it seems that it is likely to be related to the processing results of Zhuoyi Laboratory.
