Take the Fox Fairy To Catch the Ghost
Chapter 20: Jubao Court
Chapter Twenty Treasure Gathering Pavilion
Just now we were planning to go out for business. We haven’t made this yet. Luo Liguo suddenly made a decision that was completely beyond our expectations. I think he is serious and doesn’t seem to be joking with us, but I always feel that Luo Liguo is telling us. There was a weird expression on his face during this passage.
"Uncle Luo, are you really leaving?"
"Hey, Bai Ling girl, it's true. It's a decision I made after thinking about it for a long time in the past two days." Luo Liguo paused, then said: "I will go to pack up my things now, go to the bus station to buy a ticket, the fastest I’ll be home almost tomorrow night. Hey, I haven’t seen my baby for another year. I don’t know if he has grown taller again..."
Luo Liguo didn't say anything any more, put the guy down and went straight back to his room, and he really started to clean up.
We followed and Jiang Yilong said, "Hey, Uncle Luo, your decision is too sudden."
"Not suddenly, not suddenly." He smiled and continued to clean up.
Jiang Yilong was still about to say something, I pulled the corner of his clothes and motioned him to leave the room. "If you don't stop Uncle Luo, why are you pulling me?"
"Let's stop? Forget it, you don't know Uncle Luo's temperament. The decision he made can't bring back nine cows. Besides, in my opinion, now he is really ready to draw a clear line with us."
"I know. Wait, what does it draw the line? Little Junior Brother, what do you mean by this? How come I don't understand it." Jiang Yilong asked.
I smiled and said, "Uncle Luo was just ready to go out with us to solicit business, but the door hasn't been released yet. He suddenly told us that he wants to go back to his hometown. Why is this?"
"Because of what?" Jiang Yilong said.
I pointed to the pager hung around his waist, and Jiang Yilong blurted out, "It's a shit."
"It's Little Hu."
"Little Hu Ye? Uncle Luo is going to leave, why is it related to Little Hu Ye again?"
"It's very simple." It may be that Jiang Yilong really didn't turn this corner for a while, and I quickly said: "What is Xiaohu's doing? Uncle Luo is not clear in his heart. This kind of thing is just like you. That day, as I said to Little Hu in person, I couldn’t see it..."
Luo Liguo is honest and honest and doesn't have any skills to make a living, so he can only come to Chongqing with coolies, but he is not stupid. He knows very well that once we really have a relationship with Little Hu, in case something unlucky happens, the boat capsizes, and he is implicated, he may be able to accept it himself, but he is a man with a family after all. If something happens to him and loses his pillar, what should his wife and children do? It is for this reason that Luo Liguo made a decisive decision when he understood the stakes at this level. The best choice was to get rid of the relationship with us as soon as possible.
In fact, Jiang Yilong and I never understood, but judging from the current situation, it is very worthwhile for us to fight. Take the original words of Mr. Hu at the time, we worked so hard for what, isn't it just for the money? In today's society, if you want to live with dignity, only if you have money can you be a master, and you can truly be free from the cold eyes of others.
Besides, even if we reject Little Hu now and continue to work hard for ten or twenty years, what will be the result? Jiang Yilong and I know this very well. This is not the result we want, and it is not the reason we chose to come to Chongqing in the first place, not to mention that we can't be great for a lifetime.
Bai Ling followed, looked at us and said, "Uncle Luo is leaving, why don't you stop him."
Jiang Yilong smiled: "No, Uncle Luo's plan is right."
Bai Ling looked at me again, and I nodded.
After cleaning up for about half an hour, Luo Liguo changed into a set of clean clothes, carrying two woven bags, and looked at us with a smile: "Xiao Qi Xiaojiang and Bai Ling girl, I will go first. In the future, if If there is a chance, I will definitely come back to see you."
"If you want it, we will give it to you."
Jiang Yilong and I each took a woven bag from Luo Liguo and carried it in our hands, closed the door and went downstairs. When passing by the doorman's room, the doorman mistakenly thought that we were going to move, and said to us to come over and play at some time. I chuckled back and said that it was not a move, and he was stunned for a long time. When we left the community, we walked a little longer to make it easier for us to take a ride. When we reached the intersection, Luo Liguo stopped first. "You don't need to send it anymore, just come here. I can find a car and take me to the station by myself."
"Uncle Luo, thank you for taking care of you in the past few years. We will never forget your kindness in this lifetime."
"What are you talking about? You don’t think so. Don’t think I’m a wooden head, but I don’t believe in anything, but I believe in fate. We can know each other, we can eat and live together, and still For so many years, so this is our fate."
"Yes, yes, this is the fate of our cultivation in the last life. Now that Uncle Luo has a new plan, we will not force you to keep you. If we have time in the future, my younger brother and I will definitely visit you and aunt. That's right, You got this, it's a little bit from my younger brother and I." Jiang Yilong finished speaking, and immediately took out his passbook in his pocket. The money stored in it was all his hard-earned money over the past few years. Of course, this is also discussed by the two of us before going downstairs.
Luo Liguo's face changed slightly, and he looked at me and then at Jiang Yilong. "What are you two doing, put it away quickly."
I said: "Uncle Luo, thanks to your care for so many years, we don’t have any ability to repay you now. Therefore, this little heart hopes you will accept it. If you don’t accept it, we will not feel better. Besides, Don’t you plan to go back to your hometown to do a small business, that can also be regarded as our investment, haha, if Uncle Luo develops in the future, don’t forget the two of us."
"Hey, I understand what you mean. Okay, well, then I will receive it cheeky." Luo Liguo took the passbook and stuffed it in a woven bag jacket pocket. "Don't blame Uncle Luo for talking, you are still young, don't take any crooked roads, in short, no matter what, think about it."
"We know."
Next, we set off with Luo Liguo for a few minutes, stopped a taxi, and drove him away. To be honest, when the taxi he was in completely disappeared from my sight, in fact, I didn't react at all in my heart, but a kind of calmness to go with the flow. On the other hand, Bai Ling had only been in contact with Luo Liguo for a few days, but they seemed very sad.
Jiang Yilong said: "There is no permanent banquet in the world, and this is true."
I said, "Yes. However, we have no abilities ourselves, and we are the only ones that can pay it back now."
Bai Ling was puzzled and asked, "What are you two talking to yourself?"
"Hey, nothing said." Jiang Yilong and I said in unison.
When we came to the newsstand next to the intersection, Jiang Yilong dialed the phone number displayed on the pager, and soon the other end of the phone was picked up by Hu Qingguo himself. Jiang Yilong told Hu Qingguo of our decision. Hu Qingguo was naturally very happy when he heard it, and then he gave us an address so that we can pass now.
Now that all of our belongings are put together, I am the only one who has less than two thousand dollars in the card. The first is to save money, and the second is not in a hurry anyway. Therefore, we inquired about the specific bus route according to the address, changed the bus twice, and walked for a while, almost two hours, and finally came to the place Hu Qingguo told us.
This is an antique shop that specializes in porcelain, Buddha statues, jade, calligraphy and painting. The three characters Jubaoge are written on the flat forehead of the door. I took a closer look and found that there are at least seven or eight antique shops selling antiques and jade articles on this street, but it seems that Jubaoge’s business seems the most deserted. Looking inside, there are only two people in the shop now, one is a buddy and the other is a buyer. But this individual buyer played with a jade in his hand, listened to the price quoted by the buddy, and returned it after saying that it was too expensive.
"A few bosses, are you going to buy jade, or calligraphy and painting?" The guy who was about the same age as me saw us standing in front of the store and immediately greeted us enthusiastically.
Jiang Yilong said: "We're not here to buy things. Is he here?"
"Oh, little Hu Ye told me that he is on the second floor, you follow me."
When we entered the store, we naturally looked at the shelves on which there were a dazzling array of porcelain and jade wares, large and small, there should be nearly two hundred pieces, to be less. And these things are likely to be stolen from the tomb of Master Hu.
When we went upstairs, Mr. Hu was leaning on the sofa drinking tea and smoking. He saw us saying, "Sit down, sit down."
The man is also sensible. He poured tea for us as soon as we sat down, and then went downstairs and continued to look at the shop.
The space on the second floor is half smaller than that on the first floor, but there are also two rows of shelves. Most of them are calligraphy and painting. We don't know the specific age and who painted it.
I took the lead and said with a smile: "Little Hu, why do you open the store here? I think the competition here seems to be fierce."
"Haha, my store is considered a time-honored brand, I took it from my dad."
"Since it is a time-honored brand, and I think there are a lot of good things in the store, how can it..."
Hu Qingguo heard Jiang Yilong's overtones, but was not at all angry, and said: "This layman sees the excitement, and the expert sees the doorway. Besides, the ones on the downstairs are actually fakes, can they be sold? When you go out, it depends on whether the buyer's vision is unique."
Bai Ling said: "What you sell is fake, then you are a liar."
"Don't talk nonsense." I glared at Bai Ling, she stuck out her tongue, and gave me a look, meaning she was right. I quickly apologized to Hu Qingguo: "Little Hu, you must not be angry with her."
Hu Qingguo's expression remained unchanged, and he waved his hand and said, "Bai Ling is right. However, even if the things I have downstairs are fake, they are copied from the real ones. It is difficult to see if they are not really understood. The doorway in it."
Since this Jubao Pavilion is a time-honored shop selling antiques, it has always been making money in this way. Could it be that it has never been noticed by anyone who really knows antiques collection. It has been able to operate until now. There must be another article behind it.
Mr. Hu probably guessed what I was thinking, and said without evasiveness: “If there is a fake, there will be a truth. Don’t look at my shop, where business is usually deserted. In fact, at least 70% of the authentic goods in the antique shops on this street are from my place."
Suddenly, I said, "So that's it."
