Tomb Raider Gu Tomb Miscellaneous Notes
Chapter 27
One minute later, I remembered that I hadn't asked for the address, so I had to call again.
Shen Er put on airs and interrogated how I knew Zhang Rui. I said, you give me the address, and we will talk about it when we meet.
Luckily, this guy was so short-sighted that he couldn't figure out the reason for his rebuttal, so he finally reported the address honestly.
Shen Er and Zhang Rui were drinking tea on a yacht on the Huangpu River, so it took me a while to get to the boat.
I want to see Zhang Rui for a reason.
Since Dad couldn't find any clues, I think the incense burner was invited by Zhang Rui and the others, and Zhang Rui might know something about him.
When I met Zhang Rui, I still couldn't connect him with Zhang Xiaogua, and suddenly I didn't know how to start a conversation. Zhang Rui had a sharp eye and a careful mind, and he saw that I had a bump, so he asked: "What's wrong with you, we've been together since Not long after we separated last time, you feel strange to me?"
"No, no." I hurriedly let myself relax a bit, and after the conversation started, I continued to talk about the incense burner.
It's a pity that after chatting with Zhang Rui for a few words, only disappointment remained.
Zhang Ruidao: "My eldest brother will find him, and he was also introduced by someone. Moreover, the introducer didn't explain his origin, but only quoted us a price."
"Quotation?" I was surprised, "Are they doing human trafficking?"
Zhang Rui shook his head: "No, some people in this industry clearly mark the price. The employer pays for it, and they work part-time. For them, it is a good thing to get rid of the artifacts that they have found out. However, because they are all desperate errands, high-skilled people are expensive, and there are not many people who dare to hire them. The introducer quoted a sky-high price to my elder brother at the beginning , Said that the person is very hot and does not bargain. My elder brother has a good eye, and he can tell how many catties are worth after seeing what kind of goods, so the two parties made an appointment to inspect the person. Grandpa brought it back."
I nodded, Shen Er frowned and looked at me: "Xiao Wang, who are you thinking about?" I patted his forehead with a newspaper angrily.
Zhang Rui smiled lightly, looked at me and said, "It's very difficult for you to find this person. As far as I know, he has used many pseudonyms, such as A Dou, David, Zhang San, Li Si, and Wang Wu. The one I use the most is Xunhuan, Huamanlou, Xiaofeng, Gao Boss, Lianchengbi, Ximen Piaoxue, Shishilang..."
Shen Er couldn't help but interjected again: "He is a fan of Gu Long's novels!"
I thought wildly, "Master Long" is referring to "Gu Long"?
"Bottle," Zhang Rui actually called the nickname smoothly. He smiled at me gently and said, "Some people can only follow the fate, and the young master is an erratic person. You can never ask for it."
I nodded: "Well, let it be."
I didn't tell Zhang Rui that the blood jade was in my hands. Although I considered whether to say it several times, my intuition told me that the incense burner might only be kept by me alone.
Later we chatted about the two-day auction. Zhang Rui said he wanted to visit the Temple of the City God, so we went ashore, ran around the Temple of the City God in Shen Er's big car, and ate Nanxiang Xiaolong.Zhang Rui took a fancy to a piece of jade, which was an ordinary piece of jade, and the shop owner insisted on saying it was Yuelaoyu.Zhang Rui asked me if it was white or green, and I said it must be a lie. He said he didn't care if he wore it, so I'll just say green.
Finally, when we arrived in Xiaonanguo, Shen Er made a generous meal. Zhang Rui had great strength, and his appetite was not ordinary. What's more, he didn't expect that other people seemed to be polite and unflappable. To become a tall building made Shen Er and I feel ashamed.
Shen Er whispered to me: "Doesn't the Zhang family have any rice? Why does the second son of his family just stare at the rice?"
"The young master is just a title, you who grew up with a small gold spoon don't understand."
"You two knew each other when you were young?"
I kicked Shen Er under the table, telling him not to ask more questions.
The three of us were full, I went home, Zhang Rui went back to the hotel, Shen Er said he was going to the nightclub to find his old friend.
Shen Er's hometown is in Wuhan, his mother is very capable of giving birth, and the four older sisters above him, he is not used to the hometown where a bunch of people control him, so he lives alone in Shanghai.But the feeling of homesickness is still deep. Every time I go to a nightclub to find a woman, the one in Wuhan will say that he is a good friend.
On the day of the auction, Shen Er was more like the host than me, so he took me and Zhang Rui to Jincang Wenhua Hotel in a special car.
A table was set up in the lobby, registration cards were issued, and the three of us each received a number: I was fifteen, Zhang Rui was sixteen, and Shen Er was twenty-three.
Shen Er looked at us with tears in his eyes, sighed, waved his hand and sat apart from us.
As soon as Zhang Rui and I sat down, a young man in a suit and leather shoes walked up to us, with a smile on his face, apparently aimed at us.I looked at it for a while, and I recognized the man in the suit who asked me to open the box in the bar - Zhang Rui's brother Zhang Ci.
Zhang Ci looked like a businessman at first glance, he and Zhang Rui didn't look like brothers at all, they had two styles of style.
He shook hands with me, and said kindly, "Mr. Li, my little brother is bothering you."
There are more than a dozen masks on the businessman's face, and they change every day. Zhang Ci's attitude is completely different from that day, so I can only smile in agreement: "Where is it, Boss Zhang is lucky to meet you."
Zhang Ci smiled indistinctly.
Zhang Rui got up and said, "Brother, don't you say you can't come?"
Zhang Ci looked at his younger brother with a smile: "Didn't you also tell the old man that you don't want to come, why are you here again?"
Zhang Rui's complexion immediately darkened, but the smile on Zhang Ci's face was still impeccable: "I don't hide from Mr. Li, this is a formal antique auction in name, but it is actually a fight against the giants of the world organized by our Zhang family. General Assembly."
He said this while looking at me.
He smiled meaningfully, and said in a low voice: "If you are interested, you can stay and take a look later."
I noticed that when Zhang Ci was next to him, Zhang Rui looked very depressed, his whole face was covered with dark clouds, with an expression of repelling others thousands of miles away.As soon as his elder brother left, he breathed a sigh of relief, sat down, and after a long while his face returned to the gentleness of the past.
It is common for brothers to use a phrase for their names, but for the word "Ruici", Rui comes first and Ci follows. The order of Zhang Rui and his elder brother is reversed. I don't know what the mystery is.
There are always unexplainable ethical entanglements in a big family.
I was drowsy all the way through the first half of the auction, until a copper incense burner was put on display, and the host introduced that it was an official kiln used by the court of the Han Dynasty, and it was said that it was placed in the palace of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che .
The starting price was not very high, and there were few bidders.
I suddenly regained my energy and waved to Shen Er, asking him to take a picture for me.I can still afford that price.
Unexpectedly, Shen Er was dozing off, I was so anxious that my heart was itchy, Zhang Rui suddenly raised a placard and reported a high price that no one else dared to bid.I was taken aback for a moment, he looked at me and said with a smile: "You will collect all the money and give it to me later."
I touched my cheek in embarrassment: "At this price, I'm a little..."
"Payment in installments is also acceptable." Zhang Rui said.
At the end of the auction, Shen Er walked towards us with a sigh of relief, and saw that Zhang Rui and I were holding one in each hand, and said in surprise: "Censer? Bottle?... Xiao Wang just took this incense burner, he didn't have much in his pocket." It costs a little money, but this blue and white porcelain vase is ordinary. Most of the samples made by the government in that year were defective products. I think this can only be preserved intact. "
Zhang Rui smiled pretentiously, but didn't answer.
I really don't know much about antiques, I just think the slender blue and white porcelain vase in Zhang Rui's hand is pretty.
Shen Er murmured, "I knew I would take a photo of something, so I would keep formation with you."
This guy has been thinking about something all day long, as if it is a different dimension that makes people puzzling.
Although Zhang Ci said that there will be a meeting of giants in the fighting world, the three of us are not interested, and Zhang Rui seems to be eager to leave, so we walked out side by side.
As soon as he arrived at the gate, an old voice sounded behind him, with a strange laugh: "Young man, you have good eyesight. I thought no one would snatch this thing from us."
We looked back, and there was an old man with white hair standing in front of him. He was old, short and thin, with a goatee and a kind face.
Zhang Rui suddenly shouted: "Master!"
The old man nodded slightly, Zhang Rui greeted him in surprise, and supported the old man: "Master, why did you come to Shanghai?"
The old man with the goatee said slowly: "Oh, there is an old friend who asked me to come to Shanghai to meet his little boy, um, Peugeot."
He nodded to me in satisfaction, and the last adjective made me shudder.
Hey, old man, the word "Peugeot" is not suitable to describe me!
Beside the goatee, there is a girl wearing a red cheongsam with her buns on her hair. That girl is very beautiful.
He staggered to us with the support of the little girl, and squinted at me: "Little brat, would you like to sell this incense burner to the old man?"
I hugged the copper incense burner tightly: "Sorry, master, I liked it very much the first time I saw it, and I really can't let it go to you, please forgive me."
In fact, I can't see how good it is, I just think the name is beautiful, it is called "copper glazed crane furnace".
The goatee chuckled for a while: "Forget it, antiques are made according to fate."
Zhang Rui officially introduced to us at this time: "He is my master, and people in the Dao Dou world call him 'the unique sect'."
Shen Er let out an "ah": "Can 'Dou Men Du Pai' also be used as a name?"
As soon as Shen Er finished speaking, I saw the crutch in Goatee's hand and knocked on the bottom of Shen Er's feet. Shen Er wailed, but didn't understand the situation.
I only saw a shadow just now. This old man seemed to be unable to move, but I didn't expect him to be so quick-witted.
The girl at the side of the dumpling head chuckled, Shen Er wanted face most in front of women, not to mention she was a pretty girl, her face immediately turned red like a sweet potato.
Goat Hu said with a smile: "I left the teacher's school to set up my own school. I haven't given a name yet. Slowly, people began to call me the independent school. This name is meaningful enough. It can be used for 30 years. "
Shen Er whispered to me on the sidelines, saying that the old man was better at picking nicknames than me, and that the girl next to him was ordering something.
Shen Er looked like a stunned man, his eyes drifted straight to the girl. Before I could support him, he rubbed his hands and asked the goatee: "The one next to you is—"
The goatee laughed loudly and said, "Haha, Ah Ling, the granddaughter of the miscellaneous family, isn't she pretty?"
"Beautiful!" Shen Er gave a thumbs up, "I have the same name as me, we are destined."
The goatee's granddaughter is indeed beautiful, and she matches her name very well, but I have always forgotten that Shen Er's real name is Shen Lingyi. I haven't mentioned it since I saw the roster when I checked in at the university dormitory. From time to time, I don't know how to take it out to get close to others.
Your purpose is too obvious, you two!
I stroked my forehead and really wanted to drag Shen Er out, and said to myself, Zhang Rui is the same rich young master as you, why is there such a huge difference, no wonder I don't want to go to your appointment!
Shen Er put on airs and interrogated how I knew Zhang Rui. I said, you give me the address, and we will talk about it when we meet.
Luckily, this guy was so short-sighted that he couldn't figure out the reason for his rebuttal, so he finally reported the address honestly.
