Anya frowned and asked in confusion: "The middleman last time?"

Speaking of this, Anya suddenly thought of something, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, and asked: "What did you buy from him last time?"

"I didn't buy anything..." Alice shook her head and said in confusion: "I just bought a few things casually. Anyway, they are very cheap and just as collections. Is there any problem?"

Hearing Alice's words, Anya breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "No problem... It's just that the man is not simple. Don't get too close to him, or you may be involved in trouble!"

"Why?" Alice blinked her big eyes and asked curiously.

Anya sighed slightly and explained in a low voice: "Most of the things in the hands of the middleman are not clean. For example, some of his antiques, jade and other things are either fake or stolen from the tomb, so... you understand?"

"Then can you let me see him again? I want to buy something." Alice looked at Anya expectantly and asked.

Anya was also overwhelmed when she heard this. She had already explained it so clearly, but Alice still wanted to buy things from that person. She really couldn't understand it. She regretted introducing that person to Alice.

Seeing that Anya didn't answer, Alice immediately hugged her arm and begged her: "Please, Sister Anya, this is the last time, I really want to buy something more!"

At this time, Anya looked at Cassius for help. It was Cassius's idea to meet the second-hand dealer. How could he come out to stop Alice? He could only spread his hands and act helpless.

Anya looked at Alice helplessly, and finally nodded and agreed, "Okay... but only this time!"

Hearing Anya's agreement, Alice smiled and kissed Anya's cheek: "Thank you, Sister Anya, you are the best to me!"

Anya rolled her eyes at Alice and said, "Don't flatter me, come with me, I'll take you to find that person. Remember, don't buy some weird things, and don't buy those ridiculously expensive things..."

While reminding Alice, Anya led the two of them outside. The three of them came to the back of the bar and then continued to walk deeper into the street.

Soon they came to the end of the street, where Anya stopped, turned around and looked at the two of them, and said, "He is in this store, let's go in."

"Yeah." Alice nodded and looked at the store in front of her.

This is an old antique shop. There are several quaint stone sculptures placed at the door. The store looks even older. An old TV in the corner of the store is emitting a faint light.

In addition to this TV, a table and a chair, there are all kinds of antiques in the store.

Under the dim light, the whole room was filled with a strange atmosphere, making people feel uneasy.

"Welcome! What can I order?" As the three people stepped into the store, a hoarse and unpleasant voice came from the store.

Then, an old man with gray hair and wrinkles on his face came out from a counter. He had a cold face and his cloudy eyes swept over the three people, focusing on Anya.

Seeing the old man, Alice smiled and said, "Do you... do you still remember me?"

"You?" The old man stared at Alice carefully, as if he remembered something, and said, "Of course I remember. You bought some things from me last time. Now you want to buy more, right?"

"Yes, yes!" Alice nodded quickly, and then she pulled Cassius closer to the old man and said excitedly, "Well, my boyfriend and I are very interested in those things. Do you have any left from those things? We want to take a look again!"

The old man glanced at Alice, and his eyes intentionally or unintentionally moved from Anya to After scanning her and seeing that she had no reaction, he said, "There are a few more. Take a look for yourself!"

After that, the old man turned around and went into the counter, took out a wooden box and handed it to Alice, saying, "The rest of the things are in there. You can pick whatever you want. When you are done, just check out!"

Alice reached out to take the wooden box and couldn't wait to open it to check the things inside. There were not many things in the wooden box. There were only four items, two of which were coins similar to coins, engraved with complex and mysterious patterns, and some small incomprehensible words. There was also a black slate and a small bottle.

The surface of the slate was bumpy, like the traces of being cut by a sharp weapon. I don't know if it was because of the long time, and the lines that originally existed were blurred.

As for the small bottle, it was a small and exquisite jade pot with two long tubes on the spout. There were some incomprehensible patterns and some mysterious symbols engraved on the bottle, which made people feel inexplicably mysterious.

At this time, the old man was playing with a bright red bead in his hand. The bead was bright and emitted a faint red light. Indistinctly, it seemed that a layer of red mist was flowing inside the bead.

The old man was playing with the bead, as if he noticed Alice's gaze, and said nonchalantly: "This is not for sale, it is impossible to sell it, you should hurry up and choose it!"

After hearing this, Alice could only withdraw her gaze in dismay and move her gaze to the treasures. She bought the parchment roll last time just to give it a try, and she had no ability to identify it. She couldn't make up her mind for a while, so she could only look at Cassius.

Seeing Alice looking at him, Cassius took out the four items in the wooden box and looked at them. Although he knew nothing about the identification of antiques, his mental power was extremely strong and he could still detect the special features of these things.

Cassius first took the two coins in his hand and looked at them for a moment, then put them back, and then he took the small bottle in front of him and observed it carefully, and finally locked his eyes on the black stone slab.

Cassius didn't check for a long time, and he just looked at each item casually, and in the process of looking, he didn't show any abnormality, looking like a layman pretending to know something.

Anya watched quietly at the side. She hadn't spoken since she entered the store.

After looking at the four items, Cassius raised his head, shrugged at Alice and said, "I don't know how to choose, how about buying them all?"

Alice nodded and praised, "That's a good idea!"

Then, she looked at the old man: "We buy them all, how much is it in total?"

The old man's eyebrows trembled when he heard this, his eyes narrowed into slits, and he said in a flat tone: "A total of 10,000 yuan!"
