Rebirth 1983: The counterattack started from hunting in the mountains

Zhang Yaoyang sighed endlessly. What he wanted to catch were the big fat fish, not these small shrimps.

These people came to steal the bronze artifacts. There were seven or eight of them, all holding a hard weapon in their hands. They were lying in ambush around the alley quietly, waiting for him to walk into the encirclement before taking action.

His five senses were very sharp, especially now when everything was quiet. No matter how well these people hid, he could still detect them.

Because I learned my lesson, I didn't rush into perspective.

As long as the other party doesn't have a gun, he has nothing to fear.

He quietly transferred the bronze ware into his personal warehouse and took out an iron rod.

He wanted to see how these people wanted to die.

Just as he was about to step into the encirclement and start killing, he suddenly heard messy footsteps behind him.

Several people ran towards him.

"Comrade, please stay. I have something to ask of you!"

The other person was a bit fat, and the long-distance running seemed very strenuous for him, and he could hardly catch his breath when speaking.

The amazing thing is that after seeing the fat man coming, those villains hiding in the dark actually chose to retreat silently.

Obviously, he was somewhat afraid of this person.

Don't be fooled by his unprepossessing appearance. If you take a closer look, you will find that he has a prominent background.

This man is called Zhou Qiang, and he is also the owner of a shop on this street. He has some power, but he is not as bad as Yu Dewang, and he is a decent person and does things well.

As for their property, it was passed down from their ancestors and is the kind that they have been able to preserve.

Most of the items in this person's shop are antiques found in ancient tombs.

The news that Zhang Yaoyang had bronze for sale reached his ears a little late, so he rushed here in a hurry, naturally because he had the desire and ability to buy.

Zhang Yaoyang heaved a sigh of relief and was happy that he could get rid of these dead things.

After the two exchanged greetings, the other party enthusiastically led him into his store.

Zhang Yaoyang was quite bold and went to the meeting alone, which made Zhou Qiang shake his head.

"Comrade, aren't you afraid that I might harbor evil intentions and rob you of your things? You should be more cautious when you go out."

This person is quite interesting. He actually reminded me to be on guard.

Zhang Yaoyang smiled and said, "I believe Boss Zhou is not that kind of person. We are all doing serious business. There is no need for such empty talk."

Zhou Qiang nodded: "That's a must. It took a lot of effort to pass down this family business to my generation, so I certainly can't let down the reputation that my ancestors have accumulated."

"But I don't know what to call comrades?"

"I'm just a wanderer, not a famous person. Boss Zhou, just call me waiter."

Zhang Yaoyang didn't want to play any tricks with the other party, so he went straight to the point and displayed the big stuff, five bronze artifacts.

"I got these from an ancient tomb. The owner of the tomb was an exiled royal family member, so there are a lot of burial objects. I'm only showing a few to Boss Zhou. Please take a look and see if you are interested!"

Zhou Qiang was quite professional in his work, holding the bronze ware and looking at it carefully under the light.

First, he looked at the rust color on it, then he knocked it gently to listen to the sound, then he looked at the patterns on it to determine its age, and finally he rubbed the copper wall hard and put it under his nose to smell it.

After admiring it for half an hour, he carefully put it back in its place.

"Comrade Xiaoer, these things of yours are most likely genuine and in good condition. Please give me a fair price. If it's reasonable, I'll take all five of them."

"Besides, no matter how much you have, I have the power to take it down. Please rest assured."

The other party was open and honest, so Zhang Yaoyang didn't want to be pretentious and quoted a price based on the estimate the mountain herder had given him.

This was the highest price he could get in this era, and he offered it without hesitation.

This batch of goods is not from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, nor from the Tang and Song dynasties. The older the age, the more valuable it is, and the more recent the age, the more depreciated it is.

He asked for 8888 yuan for this palm-sized bronze mirror, and the rest were priced between and yuan, depending on the size and the exquisiteness of the pattern.

This price was much higher than the 5000 yuan he offered when he was selling things on the street, which naturally caused dissatisfaction among the people behind Zhou Qiang.

"Just now our people saw that you only marked the price at 5000. Why did you increase the price so much after reselling it? You are really dishonest in doing business."

Zhang Yaoyang shook his head: "No, no, no, there must be a reason for such a high price. I have hundreds of them in my hands, and I won't give up a penny."

"Humph! You should keep it for yourself. It's so expensive. We are not enemies. There is no need to discuss this further."

When the other party said this, Zhou Qiang sighed, as if he really listened to this person's words. His eyes relaxed, and he actually wanted to give up.

Zhang Yaoyang directly threw out a bombshell piece of information.

"If you eat all of my goods, I can tell you the location of the ancient tomb and ensure that your people can enter and exit safely without any accidents."

"Tsk tsk... Since you found this thing from that ancient tomb, why don't you keep it for yourself and make a fortune, instead of telling us outsiders?"

"What do you want to do? Do you think we are fools?"

There was a hint of sarcasm on the other person's face, and it was obvious that he had regarded Zhang Yaoyang as a liar.

This guy is like a troublemaker. Zhou Qiang, the real boss, hasn't said anything yet, but he's still making trouble.

A good business is about to fail.

Zhang Yaoyang threw the bronze artifact into the backpack and said indifferently: "I am not short of money, and I don't want to make money from the dead. The ancient tomb is deep in the mountains and forests. If you are really not interested, I can only find someone else."

Zhou Qiang acted as a peacemaker.

"Uh... Comrade Xiaoer, let's put things in order. Sell these items to me first, and I'll give you an 8% discount on the price you mentioned..."

When he said this, he subconsciously glanced at the trouble maker. The other party shook his head, and he hurriedly changed his words.

"20% off is too much, how about 30% off..."

Looking at it again, Shit Stirrer was still not satisfied. He gritted his teeth and said calmly, "It's better to give me a 40% discount. Bring the rest when you have time. As long as they pass the inspection, I'll give them to you."

"As for the tomb, it's all unreliable stuff, so let's not talk about it anymore. What do you think?"

Zhang Yaoyang has already seen clearly that although Zhou Qiangren is a good person and is the owner of this store, he seems to have no say in the matter. The troublemaker behind him is weird and a particularly stubborn person.

He had already made up his mind about Zhang Yaoyang and was unwilling to give him a good face, so he responded rudely.

"Tsk tsk... This tomb is just a bonus. I wanted to give it to you for free, but I didn't expect you to be so dismissive. You even gave me a discount. How ridiculous!"

"To tell you the truth, this ancient tomb was exposed due to a landslide caused by heavy rain. We only found these copper products on the periphery, and there must be many valuable things inside."

"If you are not interested, I will have to find another buyer."

"Let me be honest. If I leave this door, the price will have to go up even more. We have plenty of money and time to wait. Just pretend I never came here this time!"

What bad luck!

Zhang Yaoyang spoke very confidently, but the troublemaker was still making sarcastic comments.

"As for your stuff, besides our boss, who else on this street would want it? If you dare to leave, the price will drop again next time you step into this store."

Tsk tsk... what a waste of time!
