It's midnight in the Antique Pavilion, so the lights are basically all out, it's quiet, and I don't know what's going on inside. The only thing that can be confirmed is that there are people walking around only on the top floor.
Around the antique shops in Gushu Garden, there are still scattered pedestrians, most of them young people, strolling on the street, mostly couples.
The sound of a grasshopper or a cricket came from the grass, mixed with the sound of cars passing by on the road. On the surface, there was nothing unusual about it.
However, outside the ancient tree garden, there were several cars parked. The people in the cars were all wearing black commuting half-sleeves, and they were dressed very strangely.
"Have you checked to make sure there's no one outside?"
A young man with a cigarette in his mouth said in a deep voice:
"There's no one outside. Although there are people on duty here at night, there aren't many of them. It's quite safe!"
"Liuzi, what's going on over there?"
A young man on the rooftop of a building far away, chewing gum in his mouth and holding a high-power infrared telescope in his hand, replied:
"There are a lot of cars coming around. It doesn't look right. They should all be heading towards the Antique Pavilion. There must be six or seven of them!"
The leading man checked his equipment and said in a deep voice:
"There's no point in doing things for money without taking risks. Pack up your things and prepare them. Remember what you should do and what you shouldn't do!"
The three cars behind responded at the same time, and then the car doors were opened neatly. More than a dozen people, dressed casually, dispersed and walked towards the Antique Pavilion from different directions.
There are a few very suspicious cars on the street, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that these people are also coming to the Antique Pavilion!
So when they saw that someone was about to take action, they gradually began to become anxious.
"Where do these people come from?"
"Who knows, they're all here for the baby. With your face covered, no one knows anyone, so what are you afraid of!"
"That's right, let's go, boss, let's go too, otherwise if we're late, all the good things will be taken away!"
The biggest mistake of this group of people was that they ignored the dangers of the Antique Pavilion and simply thought it was just an antique shop.
And the group of people before was the group of people that Zhou Shen found to stir up trouble!
Their purpose is not to target any side, but to provoke conflicts between Antique Pavilion and these different forces!
…
In the Antique Pavilion, Zhou Licheng and Xiao Qing sat opposite each other, with half of the "Collection of Three Classics" in front of Xiao Qing.
"There are so many mysteries in this book. It would take several months to master them all!"
"There's no rush, just take your time, but tonight is destined to be uneventful. You have too many opponents, and I don't trust Zhou Shen very much either!"
Xiao Qing closed the "Collection of Three Classics" and looked at Zhou Licheng with a frown.
"I don't trust him either. Will he be the one causing trouble tonight?"
"There will definitely be some, but there are very few people who come here who don't have any evil intentions. A bunch of thieves will be kicked out of the Antique Pavilion every now and then!"
Xiao Qing nodded. He didn't have anything he could use at the moment, except for the pendant!
According to Zhou Licheng, the starting price of this pendant is over one million yuan!
This should be a member of the Xiao family in Jiangnan. I am afraid that Xiao Qing will not live well in the future, so selling this pendant can be an emergency.
The people who left this pendant were probably Xiao Qing's parents.
At this moment, a young man came up from downstairs and whispered:
"Someone is coming, there are quite a few on the street, the pavilion is ready!"
Zhou Licheng nodded and signaled to the waiter that he could go down.
"By the way, I forgot one thing. If you catch anyone, send them all to me!"
"clear!"
These young guys are ordinary store clerks on weekdays, but their true identities are that they all graduated from martial arts schools!
There are two types of recruitment in Antique Pavilion, one is to be a waiter, and the other is to be a waiter!
This waiter needs to know how to do it at least twice!
The total number of waiters in the entire Antique Pavilion is more than thirty, and none of them left after get off work tonight and stayed in the Antique Pavilion!
Moreover, all valuable items on the first and second floors of the Antique Pavilion were moved to the warehouse.
Zhou Licheng had guessed that it would not be quiet tonight, so he made preparations in advance.
The door on the first floor was pried open by someone. It was obvious that this person was very skilled in his movements. He must have done similar things before.
Not far away, several people Zhou Shen had found were standing behind a wall. The leading man was in his early thirties, holding a cigarette in his mouth and watching the scene with a smile.
"Boss, why don't we go up now?"
"What are you going to do? Whoever goes first will be unlucky. Do you really think Zhou Licheng is a fool?"
No one knows the man’s real name, but everyone calls him Li Dangshi!
Li Dangshi, as the name suggests, means one against ten. No matter what the task is, big or small, as long as I get the money, I will definitely settle it for you!
If Zhou Shen were alone, it would be difficult to find a channel to contact this guy, but fortunately Ren Changfeng had a wide network of contacts.
Ren Changfeng had approached Li Dangshi to do something before, and the Ren family treated Li Dangshi very well. After the job was completed, they gave him 50% more money, but unfortunately Li Dangshi didn't ask for it.
Li Dangshi just said, how much money you get, how many things you do, this is the unchanging rule in this industry.
Some people say that Li Dangshi served as a soldier abroad. Although these are just rumors, they are not without some basis.
When Zhou Shen saw Li Dangshi, he knew that this guy was not easy to appoint.
Li Dangshi smiled and sat on the steps beside the wall, and said in a deep voice:
"When these people get to the second floor, we'll rush up!"
Several young people behind him nodded and agreed.
Their profession is called "janitors", also called housekeeping, and they do things with a gray edge, and they get paid to do things.
This profession was first introduced by foreigners. Later, the locals discovered some new ways of doing it, and it gradually became popular.
The reason why they are called cleaners is because the work they do is somewhat unclean, and it is normal to have such comments.
Now, most of the people who come to the area around the Antique Pavilion are hired thugs and thieves. The only professional team is Li Dangshi and his team.
After the door on the first floor of the Antique Pavilion was opened, several guys wearing masks and hats walked in, tiptoeing.
As a result, in less than three minutes, there were bursts of fierce fighting sounds inside!
Then those guys were thrown out directly!
Li Dangshi held a cigarette in his mouth and smiled. As expected, during the day, he could tell that all the waiters in the store were practicing masters!
This antique pavilion is not simple, especially after obtaining the information, Li Dangshi will not underestimate this opponent!
