Siheyuan: During the great famine, we produced hundreds of millions of tons of grain

As long as his own strength is strong enough, no matter what conspiracy or trick it is, it is just a paper tiger to Wan Ping'an. Putting these messy things behind him, Wan Ping'an's face instantly returned to its previous expression.

When he returned to the pavilion, he saw Zhang Yan and the other girls' eyes immediately fell on Wan Ping'an. Without waiting for them to speak, Wan Ping'an smiled and said:

"Nothing happened, just some accidents happened to the group of tomb robbers who were looking for trouble..."

Hearing Wan Ping'an's words, the expressions on Zhang Yan and the other girls' faces changed slightly.

"But you don't have to worry. After this setback, these people may not dare to act rashly in the future..." "But as the saying goes, you don't have to worry about thieves stealing, but you have to worry about thieves thinking about it..."

"We are not afraid of being targeted by such a mastermind, but we cannot be careless..." "As long as our own strength is strong enough, all conspiracies and tricks are nothing but paper tigers..."

When Wan Ping'an said this, his eyes immediately swept over Huamei, Chen Xueru and Ran Qiuye.

Because Zhang Yan is pregnant, she may not be able to improve her cultivation in a short period of time!

Looking at Huamei's cultivation at this time, she has already reached the peak of the middle stage of dark energy, and is only one step away from the late stage. On the contrary, Chen Xueru fishes for three days and dries the nets for two days, and her blood and energy are already enough to break through to the bright energy level.

But Chen Xueru just couldn't break through that layer of window paper!

However, after this period of recuperation, Ran Qiuye's malnutrition has completely recovered.

On the contrary, he has already reached the threshold of Ming Jin and will be able to make a breakthrough naturally in no time. "I won't talk about Huamei and Qiuye..."

"Xue Ru, you fish for three days and then dry the nets for two days. Can you work a little harder...

When Chen Xueru, who had not taken it seriously at first, heard Wan Ping'an's name, her face suddenly flushed with shame. At the same time, Zhang Yan and others beside her couldn't help but chuckle.

Finally, Chen Xueru stamped her feet and said, "I understand. I will set aside some time to practice standing meditation and breathing techniques..." After saying this, Wan Ping'an turned his gaze and immediately looked at Huamei and said,

"Huamei, the shop has been renovated. Do you think we can find a time to open your sculpture art gallery first?" "We are not looking to make money, we just treat it as a hobby..."

"You can find a shopkeeper to help run the store. You just need to carve various items...

Facing Wan Ping'an's gaze, Huamei thought silently for a moment, and without any hesitation, she nodded in agreement.

"Xiao Fan, you can just arrange this matter. Anyway, I'm not that interested in business matters..." Huamei said this, and Chen Xueru beside her couldn't help but said, "How about I help Huamei run the business..." Seeing Chen Xueru's impatient look, Wan Ping'an and Zhang Yan and others looked at each other.

They couldn't help but chuckle.

Everyone in their family has their own hobbies.

Chen Xueru is not interested in other things, but when it comes to business, she is more active than anyone else.

It is just a small silk shop, but it has been run by a weak woman like her until today. One can imagine her business skills.

Thinking of this, Wan Ping'an didn't say anything and nodded directly, saying, "That's good. Let Xueru take care of the business." "I think three days from now will be a good day. Huamei's art gallery will open in three days."

Without saying anything, Wan Ping'an directly set the opening time of Huamei's art gallery to three days later. Three days is not too long, but also not too short.

As Huamei took out all the achievements she had made during this period and moved them directly to the shop, there were dozens of sculptures of various types, and each piece was at least at the master level!

Some of the carvings that Huamei had painstakingly created have even returned to their original simplicity and have a hint of spirituality! This kind of work has reached the pinnacle of a master and is only one step away from becoming a grandmaster.

Seeing the works that Huamei brought out, even Wan Ping'an couldn't help but flash a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"I didn't expect that your skills have reached this level...

Looking at the Guanyin statues and Buddha statues carved from thousand-year-old red sandalwood, the original carving techniques have already begun to have a certain charm. Hearing Wan Ping'an's sigh, Huamei rolled her eyes and said, "When I was in Kaoshantun, I had already started to get involved in carving..."

“It’s been several years now. It’s normal to have reached this level now…” Whether it’s Zhang Yan or Huamei, both of them have extraordinary talent in medicine.

A person who has only been in contact with carving for a short time has already surpassed those masters who have been immersed in this art for decades. Even if he is only one step away from becoming a grandmaster!

After a moment of sighing, he turned his gaze away from the sculptures.

Wan Pingan raised his hand to check the time, then he took a bunch of firecrackers and lit them up. Bang, bang, bang

All of a sudden, there was only a crackling sound, and thick smoke instantly filled the air... Originally, Wan Ping'an did not notify anyone else about the opening of the shop.

There were only Wan Ping'an, a few close female friends, and Han Chunming and Yan Jiekuang.

But as he lit the firecrackers, two familiar old men, followed by a few young men, came over with two flower baskets in their hands. These two old men were none other than the two old men who had met Wan Ping'an once in the teahouse three days ago.

They are also the Eighth and Ninth Masters among the Nine Gates!

The teahouse not far from here, located at the intersection of Liulichang Street, is also owned by the Xie family. As the two old men approached, they waved their hands to signal the people behind them to put down the flower baskets.

Then he turned his gaze to Wan Ping'an and said, "Congratulations, Boss Wan, on your opening..." "We two old men came uninvited, please forgive us, Boss Wan..."

Looking at the two smiling faces, Wan Ping An couldn't help but frown slightly. Although Wan Ping An hadn't figured out the identities of these two people yet.

But one thing is certain, these two old men are definitely from the Nine Gates, and they are also from the older generation of the Nine Gates. "It is our honor to have the two distinguished guests here."

As he spoke, Wan Ping'an signaled to Han Chunming and Yan Jiekuang, and the two men went forward to invite the two men and walked directly into the store. As the two old men entered the store, they first glanced around and took a look at the layout of the store.

Then the two of them looked away and noticed the sculptures on the shelves that were protected in glass cabinets.

The two old men were not ordinary people, so they could tell at a glance that these things were all master-level craftsmanship, from the most common jujube wood, peach wood, and ordinary white marble carvings.

Then there are precious woods such as golden nanmu, thousand-year-old red sandalwood, and some jadeite that is second only to white jade and ice-grade jade. The more advanced the material, the higher the carving skill, and the more effort the artist puts into it.

You can even see some amazing sculptures that are comparable to the works of masters!

Seeing this, the two old men looked at each other secretly, and then they couldn't help but sigh:

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Not bad, at least they are all masterpieces at the master level..." "And looking at the craftsmanship of these sculptures, they are all made by one person."

As they talked, the two of them walked up and down the store, checking all of Huamei's works. "Boss Wan, don't say that we two old men don't take care of your business..."

"We two old men want those two sculptures..." He observed the sculptures in the store from beginning to end.

I only saw two old men, who pointed directly at two thousand-year-old red sandalwood sculptures placed in glass covers. One was a 30-centimeter-tall Maitreya Buddha!

One is a 30-centimeter-tall statue of an immortal!

Both of these statues have reached the grandmaster level, and both are divine sculptures.

It is also the highest-grade item in the Huamei Art Gallery.

The price of each item is directly marked as: 4999!

Following one of the old men's orders, the people he brought with him immediately took out a bundle of big unity. "We will not disturb Boss Wan from opening his business...

The two old men paid the money, took the two works, and did not stay any longer.

They just said hello to Wan Ping'an and left with their people.

Until this moment, everyone in the store couldn't help but cast their eyes over the bundle of silver left by the two old men. Han Chunming couldn't help but ask, "Brother Ping, where did these two old men come from? Why did they make such a big move..."

Not only was he curious, but even Zhang Yan and the other girls showed curiosity on their faces.

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Wan Pingan shook his head and said, "I don't know them. I only met them once..." "But if it's not an accident, these two people are most likely related to the Nine Gates..."

"Nine Gates..."

For a moment, whether it was Han Chunming and Yan Jiekuang, or Zhang Yan and the other girls, all looked puzzled. Although the Nine Gates had some influence in the Forty-Nine City, especially in the antique trade.

But in the past ten years, not to mention the Nine Gates, the entire Daxia has been cleaned up from top to bottom. Not to mention that the Nine Gates are not the local forces of the Four Nine City!

Among ordinary people, not many people know about the existence of the Nine Gates.

Facing everyone's gazes, Wan Ping'an sighed secretly and gestured directly to Han Chunming.
