The old man said, "Xiao Huo, this ornament of yours is a rare fine product."

Huo Jilin said modestly, "Thank you for the compliment, senior."

Hu Bayi said on the side, "Senior, you have a unique vision. I wonder how much do you think this ornament is worth?"

The old man smiled and gave a high estimate.

Wang Kaixuan said excitedly, "Oh, that's great."

After the party, Huo Jilin said with emotion, "This party is really fruitful."

Hu Bayi said, "Yes, it's good for our business to make more connections."

As time went by, the friendship between Huo Jilin, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan became deeper and deeper.

One day, Hu Bayi found Huo Jilin and said with a serious look: "Old Huo, Lao Wang and I may have to go on a long journey to find some lost antiques."

Huo Jilin asked in surprise: "So sudden? How long will it take?"

Wang Kaixuan said: "It's hard to say, this trip may be a little dangerous, but it is also a rare opportunity."

Huo Jilin said worriedly: "You must be careful."

Hu Bayi said: "Don't worry, Old Huo, wait until we come back, and run this antique shop together."

During the days when Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were away, Huo Jilin managed the shop alone. He often thought of the time he spent with them and looked forward to their early return.

A few months later, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan finally came back.

Huo Jilin greeted them excitedly: "You are finally back. How are you? What did you gain?"

Hu Bayi smiled and said: "The gain is not small, but we have also experienced many hardships."

Wang Kaixuan said: "Yes, fortunately, we are all back safely."

After going through a lot of ups and downs, the relationship between Huo Jilin, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan became closer, and the business of the antique shop was also booming. However, the peaceful days did not last too long.

One day, a strange young man came to the store. He was dressed simply but fashionably, and his eyes revealed his curiosity and desire for antiques.

The young man said: "Boss, I am very interested in antiques, but I don't know much about them. Can you tell me about them?"

Huo Jilin greeted him with a smile: "Of course, young man, what do you want to know about?"

The young man pointed to a piece of porcelain: "This looks very beautiful, what is its origin?"

Hu Bayi also came over at this time and took over the conversation: "This is a piece of porcelain with a story. It was produced in..." Hu Bayi described the history and characteristics of porcelain in detail, and the young man listened with relish.

Wang Kaixuan added: "Young man, after listening to what Mr. Hu said, do you think this antique is particularly interesting?"

The young man nodded repeatedly: "It's wonderful. It turns out that there are so many stories behind each antique."

Since then, the young man often visited the antique shop to communicate and learn with Huo Jilin and others.

Once, the young man brought a package and opened it carefully. Inside was a bronze ware that looked a little worn out.

The young man said, "Boss, I found this at a flea market. Can you help me take a look?"

Huo Jilin looked at it carefully and said solemnly, "This thing is not simple. It may be a precious cultural relic."

Hu Bayi took a closer look and said, "Old Huo, I think this looks like an important sacrificial utensil in ancient times."

Wang Kaixuan said in surprise, "That's terrible. We have to contact the relevant departments as soon as possible."

The young man was a little nervous: "Will I get into trouble?"

Huo Jilin comforted him, "Don't worry, young man, you took the initiative to bring it to us for identification. You have done a good job."

After some twists and turns, this bronze ware was confirmed to be an important cultural relic, and the relevant departments commended the young man.

This incident made the antique shop more famous and attracted more people to come.

However, as the business expanded, problems also followed.

One day, a demanding customer came to the store.

The customer said critically: "Your stuff is not that good, and the price is so high."

Wang Kaixuan was unhappy when he heard it: "What you said is true. Our stuff is all genuine."

The customer retorted: "I don't think so. Who knows if it is a fake."

Hu Bayi hurried to smooth things over: "Sir, if you have any questions, we can explain it to you in detail."

The customer snorted: "Explanation? I think you are just fooling me."

Huo Jilin said: "Sir, we have been in business for so long, relying on our reputation, and we will never fool you."

After some patient explanation and demonstration, the customer's attitude finally eased.

The customer said: "Okay, maybe I misunderstood."

After sending the customer away, the three of them were a little tired.

Wang KaixuanComplained: "This kind of people are really hard to serve."

Huo Jilin said: "When doing business, it is inevitable to meet all kinds of people. We have to be patient."

Hu Bayi nodded in agreement: "Old Huo is right. We can't back down because of a little difficulty."

Soon after, Huo Jilin received a mysterious call.

The voice on the other end of the phone was low and mysterious: "Boss Huo, I have a batch of precious antiques and want to cooperate with you."

Huo Jilin said vigilantly: "Tell me what antiques are first."

The other party was vague: "You will know when we meet, I guarantee that you will be satisfied."

Huo Jilin felt that something was wrong, so he discussed it with Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan.

Hu Bayi said: "This matter is weird, be careful of fraud."

Wang Kaixuan said: "Why don't we go and take a look, maybe it's a big deal."

Finally, they decided to go to the appointment together. The meeting place was a remote warehouse.

When they arrived, they found that the other party was a group of lawless elements who tried to sell illegally obtained antiques.

Huo Jilin said angrily: "You are breaking the law, we will never cooperate with you!"

The criminal threatened: "Don't refuse a toast!"

At the critical moment, Hu Bayi said calmly: "Don't mess around, we have reported to the police."

The criminals panicked and fled.

The police arrived in time and caught the criminals.

After this incident, the three of them were more determined to operate the antique shop legally and in compliance with regulations.

On a quiet night, the three sat in the shop, recalling every bit of their journey.

Huo Jilin said with emotion: "It's really not easy for us along the way."

Hu Bayi said: "But it's also wonderful, isn't it?"

Wang Kaixuan smiled and said: "Yes, there will definitely be more challenges waiting for us in the future."

The moonlight sprinkled on them, illuminating their hopeful faces and the future of the antique shop.

The days passed like flowing water, and Huo Jilin's antique shop became more and more famous under the careful care of the three. However, the peaceful time is always short-lived, and new challenges quietly come.

One day, a lady with gorgeous clothes and noble temperament walked into the antique shop. Her eyes were sharp and her manners were elegant. It was obvious that she was not an ordinary person.

The lady said softly: "I heard that your shop has many rare treasures, so I came here to find out."
