Chapter word count: 3409

"This house is really beautiful." Standing in front of the classical building, Jiang Yu couldn't help sighing.

"Mr. Zhou has been staying in his house since he retired, thanking guests behind closed doors. He usually doesn't meet people easily. If it's not a serious matter this time, no one will bother him." Zhang Qin said to Jiang Yu.

"Who is this Mr. Zhou?" Jiang Yu thinks that the people who can live in this kind of house must be the richest among the rich - he just likes to deal with rich people.

"Mr. Zhou was the president of the bank before he retired. When he was young, he opened a bank, opened a pawn shop, and also ran an antique shop. Later, after the reform and opening up, he was entrusted to be the president of the bank. Retired." Zhang Qin looked at Jiang Yu and said, "As long as you do well what he entrusts, the benefits will definitely be indispensable."

"He is a bank president, and you are a mafia leader. How did you two get involved?" Jiang Yu was indeed not so polite. Fortunately, after Zhang Qin heard what he said, his face just froze. I didn't mean to argue with him either—

"He has a good friendship with my grandfather, so the relationship between our family and the Zhou family has always been good." Zhang Qin explained.

"Are you so sure that I can help him?" When Jiang Yu first received a call from Zhang Qin, he thought that he had something to ask him for help, but it turned out that he was asking him to help others.

"I'm quite accurate in judging people." Zhang Qin was confident, "And I also saw what happened last time."

"Did the order of your two sentences be reversed?" Jiang Yu said coolly.

"You just understand."

When the gate opened, some old servants invited them in, but cars were not allowed in, they were only allowed to park outside.

"A lot of camellias..." As soon as Jiang Yu entered the yard, he was stunned by the almost full camellias in front of him—these camellias were all planted in exquisite flower pots, and the pots were in full bloom—dark red, pink, rose red , deep purple, lavender, yellow, white, stripes... dazzling.

"One of Mr. Zhou's hobbies is planting camellias." Zhang Qin said, "Every pot of camellias is selected and cultivated by him himself. The varieties range from rare to ordinary, such as Eighteen Bachelors, Hexagonal Red, There are also a lot of Chidan planted, I don’t understand, I just look at it.”

"Looking at how well these camellias are blooming and being so spiritual, you can tell how much Mr. Zhou has put so much effort into them." Jiang Yu knew that camellias are not easy to grow, especially with so many different varieties of camellias.

"It's a good drive, I can understand it, but how do you explain this spirituality?" Zhang Qin didn't understand.

"Spirituality means good driving." Jiang Yu didn't say much, and continued to move forward.

Although Zhang Qin had doubts, he didn't ask any more questions.

After they left, a pot of hexagonal red flower stems twisted, the dewdrops on the flowers were thrown away, and after a while, it returned to calm, as if nothing happened.

Jiang Yu and Zhang Qin came to Zhou's living room, which was also decorated in an antique style. The tables and chairs were old furniture that had been polished for at least decades. There was a grand chair that caught Jiang Yu's attention—that one The Taishi chair is made of old chicken wing wood, the pattern of the armrest is Yunlong, and the chair legs are wrapped with royal blue cloth. The back of the chair is decorated with three partitions. Ruyi pattern, and inlaid with high-quality white marble - this chair is not cheap. Jiang Yu once again confirmed Mr. Zhou's idea that he is a rich man.

"You are here."

Hearing the sound, Jiang Yu turned his head and saw the old man coming in from the side hall. The old man was dressed in a blue Tang suit, with white hair all over his head, but he was in good spirits, but probably because he had something on his mind, there was no smile on his face.

"Mr. Zhou." Zhang Qin greeted first.

"Mr. Zhou, hello." Jiang Yu also greeted.

"Please sit down." Old Mr. Zhou sat down on the grand master's chair, and then said to the old servant, "Go and get the Dahongpao."

"Yes."

This posture is like the old-fashioned old-fashioned style.

"Mr. Zhou, this is the ginger taro I mentioned to you." Zhang Qin introduced to Mr. Zhou.

Mr. Zhou looked Jiang Yu up and down before making an evaluation, "Young man is quite young, and he is really a formidable young man."

"Mr. Zhou is too polite." Jiang Yu could actually see that the old man didn't trust him very much—"Old man, if you have any orders, just say it."

"I heard from Zhang Qin that you have some skills." Mr. Zhou put his hands on the grand master's chair, and the emerald ring on his finger caught Jiang Yu's eyes.

"It's not a big deal. I'll do my best to help Zhang Qin." Jiang Yu said calmly, neither humble nor overbearing.

Mr. Zhou saw that Jiang Yu spoke with a calmness that was different from his age, and he was a little appreciative in his heart, "Young man, such a humble person is rare. I asked Zhang Qin to find you today, and I hope I am not disappointed."

"I hope so too."

At this time, the old servant came up with a tea tray, served Jiang Yu and Zhang Qin first, and then carefully put the third cup on the high table beside Mr. Zhou.

"Go down."

"Yes."

Old Mr. Zhou took a sip of tea, and then said, "You also drink my Dahongpao. I don't like to drink the Longjing Biluochun Tieguanyin, but only this Dahongpao. I don't know how you like it."

Zhang Qin took a sip first and said, "It's really sweet and refreshing."

Jiang Yu also took a sip, but he was the kind who drank a cup, wiped his mouth and said, "Sorry, I don't know how to taste tea, I just know how to quench my thirst."

Mr. Zhou's face was a little ugly at first, but seeing Jiang Yu's calm look, he was relieved, "You are young, you are not old enough to love tea, why don't you let Lao Wang get you some milk tea?"

"No need, Mr. Zhou, I'm not a refined person." Jiang Yu looked directly at him and said, "Just tell me what I'm here for."

"It's really refreshing, so I won't be polite." Mr. Zhou put down his teacup and said, "I have something stolen."

"Stolen?" Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows, "Shouldn't you call the police for this kind of thing?" He said and glanced at Zhang Qin—what did you tell the old man about me?Do you really think I'm that kind of crime-solving master? ? ?

Zhang Qin smiled and signaled Jiang Yu to listen.

"This theft is not an ordinary theft," Mr. Zhou said slowly, "At that time, I was beside me, and the things disappeared in the blink of an eye."

"In the blink of an eye?" Jiang Yu frowned, "Disappeared for no reason?"

"How should I put it?" Mr. Zhou recalled, "There are only me and Lao Wang in this house. I don't let the guards outside come in. I was in the room that night, and Lao Wang was beside me. Suddenly I heard the voice of the guard downstairs, and I asked Lao Wang to go down to look, but he was staring at it one second, but disappeared the next second... How can this kind of thing be so incredible..."

"Could it be that there are internal thieves?" Jiang Yu asked.

"You mean Old Wang?" Mr. Zhou immediately shook his head, "Old Wang has been with me since childhood, so I still have some trust, not to mention that with such a little effort, even he can't do it."

"Then old man, what kind of thing is that?" Jiang Yu thought about it, such a rich person would not care if it was just an ordinary thing, it must be something precious.

"This..." Old Mr. Zhou hesitated.

"Old man, since you have come to me, at least you have to explain to me what it is, otherwise I will not be able to help you, can I?" Jiang Yu thought to herself—it can't be some great treasure, right?

Mr. Zhou sighed, and said, "Speaking of it, it's really not a glorious thing. This thing is a night pearl. I bought it from a tomb robber five years ago. At that time, the tomb robber was eager to make a move. I I bought it because I liked it, and I found out afterwards that it was stolen from the royal tomb, and it was an illegal mobile item, but I really liked it, so I didn’t report it, and secretly kept it... Now that this treasure has been stolen, of course I Can't call the police."

"Five years ago? Is that the year you retired, Mr. Zhou?" Zhang Qin thought about it.

"Yes, I am very happy to have such a baby, but I also feel a little bit guilty, so I will retire from now on, and I will not go out and see no guests at all." Mr. Zhou nodded.

"Ye Mingzhu..." Jiang Yu sighed, "I have only heard of its name but not its substance. Although there are some artificial things in modern times, they are of little value."

"Exactly, that's why I cherish it very much, but after all, it was lost..." Mr. Zhou felt very heartbroken when he thought of this.

"Old man, do you suspect that this theft was done by someone else?" Jiang Yu asked.

Mr. Zhou nodded, "I've lived such a long time, I haven't seen anything, I'm not a rigid person, I also believe that there are aliens in this world, if it's another baby, it's fine, but this baby I really... ..."

"Old man, if you really believe in me, then leave this matter to me first. If there is no result in three days, then I won't take any money." Jiang Yu was actually very curious about what kind of Ye Mingzhu was. baby.

"Okay, then three days." Seeing that Jiang Yu was so straightforward, Mr. Zhou also had some hope - after all, now he can only take one step at a time.

"Mr. Zhou, I see that there is a pot of hexagonal scarlet in your yard. Can you lend me that pot for a few days?" Jiang Yu was afraid that he would be worried, and said, "It will definitely be returned to Zhao when the time comes."

Mr. Zhou hesitated for a while, but still nodded, "Okay."
