The Modern Life of Yu-Yi Xie

Jiang Zhong casually glanced at the ginseng skin in the box, not very interested, and asked casually, "You brought it here to participate in the auction?"

Liu Ruyan straightened his back with some arrogance: "That's right, let's see if you can keep the finale position this time. This auction must be the most valuable piece of my ginseng skin, hahaha."

Jiang Zhong looked at Liu Ruyan with eyes like he was looking crazy: "Our company has nothing to participate in the auction this year."

Liu Ruyan's smile instantly froze on his face, and he shouted in disbelief: "What? But I saw your name in the auction list?!"

"My name is indeed on it, but I was there as a VIP." Jiang Zhong stated with a blank expression, "That is to say, I am only participating in the auction in my own name this time."

Liu Ruyan didn't speak for a long time.

"Congratulations, it's the finale without any suspense." Jiang Zhong continued to pour cold water on him mercilessly, "Of course, the premise is that you are really a thousand-year-old ginseng skin..."

After Jiang Zhong finished speaking, he naturally turned his head to look at Xie Fuling. Xie Fuling understood the meaning of Jiang Zhong's glance very tacitly, shook his head and said the conclusion he had just observed: "It is indeed not a millennium."

Liu Ruyan, who had seemed somewhat dispirited because of the blow, immediately stopped doing it when he heard the conversation between the two of them. He immediately revived with blood and began to argue: "What, why isn't this a millennium?!"

Jiang Zhong looked "as expected", turned around and said to Liu Ruyan, "You heard that, this is the result of our identification, can we go now if there is nothing wrong?"

"Leave such a sentence and want to leave, there is no way!" Liu Ruyan widened his peach eyes, looking very funny, "Let's make it clear first."

Jiang Zhong let out a "tsk", looking a little impatient: "Liu Ruyan, it's not that you don't know your own physique, so don't try to miss something if you have nothing to do. Are all the appraisers in your company just for nothing?"

After being yelled at like this, Liu Ruyan's face immediately turned red, and he didn't realize that his name was mispronounced again, so he yelled back: "What kind of physique do I have, why can't I think about picking up the leak!"

"How many times have you told yourself this? Which time did you really miss it? Either you were cheated or misjudged, and you don't have a long memory."

The reason why Jiang Zhong didn't have any interest in listening to Liu Ruyan's good things at the beginning was because he knew Liu Ruyan's physique that he always misses when he picks up leaks. There is a way, obviously there is plenty of money to buy authentic products that have been authenticated, and even though the medicinal material company is so successful, I don't know what went wrong.

Liu Ruyan, who had no way to refute, held back for a long time, and finally pointed the finger at Xie Fuling who was aside, pointing at him and said: "Well, that's not yet conclusive, how credible can he be when he is a minor?!"

Jiang Zhong slapped Liu Ruyan's hand off unceremoniously: "I just trust him."

"I've been an adult for a long time." Xie Fuling looked at Liu Ruyan who was holding his hand angrily and said, "Your eyes are really indescribable."

Liu Ruyan: ... His eyes really can't bear this blame, no matter how you look at it, it's all about his own appearance.

Just when he was about to say, "Obviously he is tender", he heard Xie Fuling continue to say, "The thousand-year-old ginseng skin is not that good. I only saw it once. You don't have to be too disappointed."

Liu Ruyan, who didn't know that Xie Fu had been active for two lifetimes, had weird eyes. What does it mean "he only saw it once", this baby face actually boasted that he had seen ginseng for thousands of years, it was simply...

Just halfway through thinking about it, I heard Xie Fuling continue to say: "Although you are only a hundred-year-old ginseng skin, its medicinal value is already very high. You can still challenge the finale."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Ruyan, who only showed half a mocking face, and Jiang Zhong, who was impatient and wanted to leave early, were both taken aback.

"Century-year ginseng?!" Liu Ruyan couldn't help crying out.

"Are you sure?" Although Jiang Zhong believed in Xie Fuling, he reconfirmed unconsciously.

Xie Fuling didn't seem to understand the shock of the other two people at all, nodded and said: "Well, this is indeed a hundred-year-old ginseng skin, about one or two hundred years old."

"Wait, wait." Liu Ruyan looked as if he needed time to accept the status quo, and after a while, he looked at Jiang Zhong seriously and asked, "Is he really not some college student or starlet that you kept?"

Jiang Zhong's face turned black all of a sudden: "Don't think everyone is as wretched as you."

"Cut, I don't do such unscrupulous things as nurturing." Liu Ruyan curled his lips, and then said seriously: "Then what is his background, can he be trusted?"

"A master of Chinese medicine, my current partner is very good at identifying medicinal materials." Jiang Zhong patted Xie Fuling on the shoulder and said, "I said it before, and I believe him."

"Expert in Chinese medicine?" Liu Ruyan sized Xie Fuling up and down for a long time, lingering on his baby face for a long time, and then said, "How sure are you of your identification?"

"Ten percent." Xie Fuling's tone was still very relaxed, "And if you don't believe it, there is actually a very simple way to prove it."

"What method?" Liu Ruyan narrowed his eyes.

"You can just cut a small piece of skin and eat it." Xie Fuling's lips twitched suddenly, "Since you are also a medicine merchant, you should know the difference."

"Do you want me to not sleep for a few days?" Liu Ruyan said with a strange expression.Everyone knows that ginseng is a great tonic, not to mention ordinary Changbai ginseng can make people energetic, but if it is the ginseng skin of a century-old ginseng, it will not be hyperactive for many days, this baby face... Is it intentional or intentional!However, this is indeed a way, it is better than taking it to participate in the auction, and it turns out to be ordinary ginseng. Of course, he still reserves the possibility that it is a thousand-year-old ginseng skin.

"Let's go, Secretary Xiao is still waiting for us outside." Seeing the change in Liu Ruyan's expression, Jiang Zhong knew that the guy was loose, so he pulled Xie Fuling up and prepared to leave.

To his surprise, Liu Ruyan didn't know if Liu Ruyan was caught in his own thinking and couldn't react in time. This time, he didn't mean to stop them, so the two walked out of the room smoothly, and heard the sound from the moment they went out. Liu Ruyan laughed loudly from inside: "Hahaha, who dares to say that I don't have the ability to pick up leaks this time!"

"So, he still believed it." Xie Fuling slightly raised his head to look at Jiang Zhong, "Your friend is quite interesting." It was a type he had never seen before.

Jiang Zhong slightly supported his forehead: "Don't pay attention to him, and walk around when you see him in the future."

Xie Fuling smiled slightly, but did not speak.

Not long after the two walked away, a man wearing a staff uniform suddenly walked out of the corner not far away, looked at the back of the two leaving with unfriendly eyes, and looked at the closed door of the box where Liu Ruyan was, He gripped the mop handle tightly.

The next day was the highlight of the exchange meeting, the day of the auction.

Because of Jiang Zhong's relationship, Xie Fuling, who had no chance to participate, naturally got the ticket. Because it opened in the afternoon, there is still plenty of time in the morning. Yesterday's harvest was not very good, so the two decided Use this time to continue exploring for a while.

However, their plan could not be realized, and the reason was because of the unexpected guest in front of them.

"Your skin was stolen?" Jiang Zhong frowned and looked at Liu Ruyan who blocked their way.

Liu Ruyan: ...What the hell is your skin? !

"Well, I was going to take it to the auction venue in the morning, but it turned out that the box was missing." Liu Ruyan's face was very bad, and he didn't have the heart to complain about Jiang Zhong's remarks.

"So you suspect that we stole it?" Jiang Zhong's expression showed no emotion.

Liu Ruyan was taken aback when he heard the words, and frowned: "Why should I suspect that you stole it?" He looked completely unaware of this possibility.

Xie Fuling looked at Jiang Zhong and said inexplicably, "Your friend is indeed very interesting."

Jiang Zhong sighed, if it weren't for Liu Ruyan's occasional charisma, how could he still keep in touch with him?

"What the hell are you guys talking about? When are you still playing charades? Help me find it quickly." Liu Ruyan jumped.

"Are you the only one who came to your company?" Why should they come to help find things.

"Ah." Liu Ruyan choked for a moment, and said to cover up, "Isn't this something that can hinder normal work?"

"Have you not told them about this yet?" Jiang Zhong squinted his eyes, and directly came to a conclusion, "I will suffer for my face."

Liu Ruyan was speechless, and muttered unwillingly: "Isn't life just for face, how uncomfortable it is to lose face."

Jiang Zhong looked at Xie Fuling: Is this guy still saved?

Xie Fuling received the question from his eyes and shook his head: Probably there is no cure.

"Hey, hey, you said you didn't have time, you're still flirting with each other, you have to be affectionate and wait until you help me find something!" Liu Ruyan said speechlessly.

I don't know if this sentence pleased Boss Jiang's rather weird mind, so he agreed.

"Any clues?"

"No." Liu Ruyan shook his head decisively.

"When did you lose it, do you know?"

"Ah, I know this, because I put the box away before closing the door in the afternoon, around four o'clock, and I found out that it was time to go to work at eight o'clock this morning."

"That should be the time between four o'clock and 05:30." Jiang Zhong pondered for a while.

"why?"

"After 05:30, your museum will be completely closed. After that, if you want to go in and steal it, it will be more difficult. Not only must you find a way to enter the door, but you must also avoid the sight of the patrolling security guards. The chance of success should not be great."

"Oh, it makes sense." Liu Ruyan suddenly realized.

Jiang Zhong suddenly raised his head, looked straight at Liu Ruyan, and asked, "Although I don't think you should be such an idiot, you should have checked the surveillance video, right?"

Liu Ruyan said: "Think of me as stupid, of course I have read it, but I can't see anything."

"To be on the safe side, let's watch it again." Boss Jiang said that he didn't quite trust this person's IQ.

So the three of them watched the surveillance video again, because Liu Ruyan put the box containing the ginseng skin in the temporary office of the venue, so basically the only people who came in and out were some customers or partners, except for the staff. Not too small, but I really didn't see anything particularly suspicious.

Until it was almost time to see the off-duty time, Xie Fuling, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said, "Please stop."

"En? Babyface, what did you see?" Liu Ruyan immediately asked.

The baby-faced Xie Fuling hesitated for a moment, pointed to a man in the camera in blue and white cleaning uniforms and said, "I may have seen this person."

"Huh? Please, this isn't asking you to find an acquaintance." Liu Ruyan was immediately disappointed.

"Did your venue call the cleaners to come and clean the office?" Jiang Zhong looked at the cleaner with his head bowed in the video and asked.

"Huh? Seems to be there. Didn't the organizers organize the dumping of the trash? Didn't anyone clean your place?" Liu Ruyan thought for a while and replied.

"Then don't you think it's been a while since he went in?"

"En?" Liu Ruyan heard the words, and looked at the surveillance screen, watching the time jump on the surveillance video. Indeed, this person went in for nearly 10 minutes, and it took at most 10 minutes to sweep the floor.

"Your employees have been in and out in the past 10 minutes, just call and ask."

"Right."

Afterwards, Liu Ruyan called the employee who was photographed on the surveillance camera over, asked about it, and found out that something was wrong.

"Oh, this man, I remember, when I went in, he seemed to be walking around your desk, Mr. Liu, and I asked curiously, and he said that a small piece of garbage rolled behind the cabinet or something, I didn't care, he was still inside when I got the documents out."

"Was there anyone else in the office when you left?"

"Oh, probably not, because they are going to get off work soon, and they have all gone to tidy up the venue."

After the few people who had finished asking the question dismissed the worker, Liu Ruyan clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sure it's that suspicious cleaner who did it."

"That cleaner is really suspicious, but what is a cleaner doing if he doesn't steal money and steal your skin? In other words, how does he know that skin is valuable?" Jiang Zhong is not as assertive as Liu Ruyan, and thinks more.

"Could it be that he heard the content of our conversation yesterday?" Xie Fuling said suddenly, "After all, he is a cleaner, so it is possible that he appeared there at that time."

Jiang Zhong felt that it made sense, and adjusted the time of the surveillance video to the front again to confirm it. Sure enough, he saw the cleaner standing at the door for a long time, and hid in the corner when he saw them coming out.

After watching the video, Jiang Zhong turned to look at Xie Fuling: "You just said you knew this person, who is he?"

"If I'm not mistaken, he is the stepdad of a college classmate of mine. We met once."

Xie Fuling looked at the gloomy expression on the cleaner's face that was frozen on the screen, and finally confirmed the identity of this person.

Zhao Xiaoying's stepdad, the man with hidden violent tendencies.

Why is this person here?
