Beipai Tomb Raiders Notes

Chapter 337 Buying Fish

"Come on, back it up."

Xiaoxuan was carrying her schoolbag on her back, and she asked suspiciously, "What are we going to do with so much money?"

I explained: "This is just in case. If you don't have enough cash for something good, you can only stare blankly and pat your thighs. There are many people on the road. Keep the money safe."

Xiaoxuan immediately hugged her backpack tightly.

I drove to the counters of three banks in the morning before I took out the more than 50 yuan in cash. At that time, there was a very famous old Internet cafe in Wu’an called Legend Internet Cafe. I remember that it was not too far from Wu’an No. [-] Middle School. I bought a set of fishing gear in the store, and then we set off to Daming with the buddy who claimed to be Li Yang last night.

"Li Yang" is a pseudonym, and I also use a pseudonym, and everyone knows it well.

after an hour.

Seeing that the Jetta car led by Li Yang stopped suddenly, I also stopped the car.

"Why don't you leave?" I asked.

He looked left and right, and said with annoyed expression: "Grass, I seem to have gone the wrong way! I remember that this road seems to lead to Linzhang! It's not to Daming!"

I was speechless: "Then you still say that you know the way very well? And let me follow you."

He laughed and said: "I came here once five or six years ago. It's normal to remember the wrong way, but it doesn't matter! I remembered how that road went. Let's turn around now and just turn in at the next fork. "

We expected to arrive at Daming in the afternoon, but because we got off the road halfway, we didn’t arrive until after six in the evening, and then we went straight to Yuecheng Reservoir without stopping.

When I arrived at the scene, I was dumbfounded!

Why are there so many people here?

There are five or six off-road vehicles parked here, at least ten people!Some even set up camping tents next to the embankment|tent!

Basically, they are all middle-aged men in their 50s and 30s. There are only two women. One is a fat woman in her [-]s, with an average appearance, and the other is a little younger, wearing a dark blue cheongsam. smell.

"Yo! Where did you come from?" A nearsighted man with thick glasses asked us.

Li Yang said with a smile: "I heard that there was a meteor shower in the reservoir for the past two days, and my mother was seriously ill in the hospital. I came here to make a wish for my mother, hoping that her illness will be cured soon."

Myopia twitched the corners of his mouth, and said in a neutral tone, "It's the same, I'm here to see the night view."

At this time, an outspoken buddy said directly: "Don't pretend, they are all here to collect the goods and want to pick up the leaks, right?"

"No, no! Absolutely not..."

Everyone said in unison, no.

With a sneer in my heart, I put a horse tie on the edge of the reservoir, and then sat down to fish with my legs crossed.

Xiaoxuan reminded me in a low voice: "Yunfeng, you seem to have forgotten to attach the hook..."

I don't know how to fish at all. It doesn't matter whether I have a hook or not. Fishing is just a kind of identity cover.

Just like Li Yang said he came to see the meteor shower, and the buddy said he came to enjoy the night view of the reservoir.

Daming is a small place, but the Yuecheng Reservoir is not small, especially in the dead of night, the sound of flood water flowing under the dam is loud and rushing.

At around nine o'clock in the evening, Li Yang came over to talk to me while eating instant noodles.

Seeing me seriously fishing, he smiled and said: "Brother Xiang, there was Jiang Taigong who took the bait in ancient times. You are better than Jiang Taigong. You don't even have a hook."

I asked: "What did you find out? Share and share information."

He pointed to the opposite bank and said, "Did you see that red brick house with lights on?"

I said I saw it, what's the matter?

He lowered his voice: "There are a few villagers who live in brick houses 24 hours a day, just staring at the reservoir. Whenever they see someone who dares to enter the water, they rush to beat them."

My expression changed, and I asked, "Is this the person the local archaeological team arranged to guard?"

Li Yang shook his head: "It's definitely not the archaeological team, but a few villagers here in Daming spontaneously organized it. People said that the reservoir was built with donations from their village, so the things in the water naturally belong to their village."

Xiaoxuan said displeased: "Such a large reservoir is not anyone's private property, are they not acting like a bully?"

Li Yang spread his hands and said: "Who says it's not! But you can't argue with others! Especially when it comes to money, if we go into the water to touch things by ourselves, we will be lightly beaten! If we don't keep them clean, we will throw them into the water to feed the fish. "

I agree with Li Yang's words, and it's the same as Qianglong's not overpowering local snakes. I asked what to do next?Could it be that they are all waiting here?

Li Yang said with a smile: "Wait! Don't sleep! You will know in the middle of the night."

I waited until 01:30 at night, and suddenly, I saw three people coming out of the red brick house, two of whom were thin with transparent eye patches and high-brightness headlights on their heads.

The two climbed over the embankment, they looked at each other and gestured, and then jumped into the reservoir with a plop.

There was still a person on the shore, and this person shook his flashlight towards us. Immediately, our short-sighted eye also flashed his flashlight, which was regarded as a response to the other party.

"The water is so deep, did those two go down with blindfolds on?" I asked.

Li Yang said: "Wait, these two people probably have good water quality. I hope they can produce something tonight. I heard that they didn't produce much in the past few days."

I frowned when I heard that, I never expected the situation to be like this before I came here, there are more wolves and less meat, if something good comes out of the water, then we people should not fight!The 50 I brought is less...

I turned my head to look at those people, except for the cheongsam girl, everyone else didn't blink their eyes, as if they were afraid that they would miss something in the blink of an eye, except for the cheongsam girl with a good figure, she kept looking up at the stars in the sky , I don't know what I'm thinking about.

"Hey! Where are these people coming from? Do you know?" I asked Li Yang.

"I'm not too familiar with it..." Li Yang took a puff of cigarette and said, "But I know that cheongsam girl has a little bit of background, so it's not easy to provoke her. Let's try not to provoke her."

"Oh, there's a background?"

"Yes! They say she is the younger sister of Laishui Jiuqingshui!"

Jiuqingshui... I took a breath.

Xiaoxuan interrupted suddenly: "I know that Jiuqingshui, didn't she go in two years ago?"

Li Yang was surprised and said: "I didn't expect this lady, you know a lot, you went in, you were sentenced to 13 years, I heard that you were arrested in a desert two years ago."

"cough!"

I coughed on purpose to remind Li Yang to pay attention to my wording, don't call Xiaoxuan Miss.

Xiaoxuan didn't say anything, she just reminded me to be careful, the younger sister of a woman like Jiu Qingshui is definitely not a mediocre person.

"Come out! Come out!"

"Look! Something seems to be out of the water!"

There was a sudden exclamation over there, and I quickly turned on the flashlight to shine on the water.

I saw that the two villagers who entered the water just now had broken through the water, and they were holding something high in both hands, seemingly very excited.

When people came ashore with things, our side swarmed over.

"Brother, what's out! Take it out and enjoy it!"

"Yes! Let's take a look!"

"Don't worry! As long as it's a good thing! We can give you a good price!"

The leader of the villagers was a bald young man with a dragon tattoo on his neck. This man held a stick in his hand, and he looked like a local ruffian.

"What are you talking about! Most of the night is trying to get the hat!"

Holding a stick in his hand, he pointed at our group and said, "I have the final say here! Line up one by one to have a look! Then tell the price! The one with the highest price wins! Emphasize that we only accept cash!"

"You! First! You! Second...."

Then a group of people lined up to enter the red brick house to look at the things that had just come out of the water. Since Li Yang and I were the last to come, we were arranged to be the last to watch.

Li Yang was immediately upset, and he complained to me: "If I had known this was the case, I wouldn't have come here. If this continues, I will be fighting who has more cash! It's strange to receive things!"

I didn't reply to him, he's already here, why don't we just look at the things before we talk.

These people went in one by one, and came out of the red brick house one by one. Compared with when they went in, they all had excited faces after they came out, and they all chose to call the first time. The tone seemed to be sending cash quickly come over.

I am more and more curious, what important cultural relic is this water?Can make these old fritters so excited.

Soon it was my turn, and I told Xiaoxuan to keep an eye on the backpack, then followed them into the red brick house with excitement.

It doesn't matter if you look at it, it scared me!

I didn't expect that this baby would come out from the bottom of the reservoir!

It is a jade pot spring bottle, not porcelain, although the surface has serious rust marks, but I can tell at a glance that this jade pot spring is made of pure silver, the most important point!The back of this silver vase is engraved with four official script characters.

"Ci Shou Yong Ning..."

I remember that there was a Yongning Palace in the Northern Song Dynasty!Cishou Yongning means that this silver bottle may have been purchased by a certain imperial concubine, or noble concubine, or simply some empress dowager for her birthday!

I wanted to look at the details, but the bald ruffian refused to let me see it. He took the bottle and said to me, "Have you seen enough? The previous bids have reached 7 yuan! How much can you give?!"

"70?"

I frowned and thought: "If you can really buy it for 70 yuan, then this is a big leak! This thing can be sold for millions of dollars, but the problem is that the other party clearly said that they only accept cash, and I brought it with me before I came. 50."

I immediately laughed and said, "That...brother, you have to give me some time. I can pay 80 yuan, but I need a day to collect the money."

The bald ruffian smiled with a cigarette in his mouth: "Ye Chang Meng Duo, who has the time to wait for you, just tonight! Whoever pays the most money will go to whoever pays. If you have no money! Then please go home or wait for the end." Bar."

I was in a hurry after coming out of the brick house, it was like a big piece of fat fed to my mouth!As long as you open your mouth, you can eat it, but the problem now is that you don't have the conditions to open your mouth.

They are thousands of miles away in Hunan, and I know some friends in the Hebei area, but it’s past two o’clock in the middle of the night, so I can’t let someone drive me over with hundreds of thousands of cash, right?

Li Yang was the last one to go in to see. When he came out, he said sullenly, "Hey! Brother! It's over! I have more than 30 in cash in my mother's car! That bald man said that someone gave him 70! Brother, how much did you bring?" ?”

I had an idea, and immediately said: "How about the two of us partnering up once?"

"You mean...we bought that thing in a joint venture?"

I nodded: "You have more than 30, I have more than 50, and the sum of money from our two belts can reach the highest price."

He frowned and said, "Then after the thing is sold, how will the money be divided?"

"Fifty-five points, half and half." I said.

There was some hesitation on his face, probably because he didn't trust me very much.

I immediately said: "Brother, you go to the Tao to inquire about my Shenyan Peak. I spit on a nail and always keep my word. Similarly, I will definitely do what I promised."

Li Yang took a deep breath, and as if he had made up his mind, he immediately said, "Brother, although we have known each other not long ago, I feel that you are worthy of making friends, so I will trust you once, and we will buy together!".

"it is good!"

After receiving his money, I roughly clicked it, and immediately told the local ruffian that I can pay 80 in cash, aren't you afraid of long nights and dreams?Then trade now!

The ruffian nodded, and then he was ready to take my money.

It was nothing at first, but an imperceptible smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

I just saw it, and immediately grabbed the backpack containing the money.
