C14 Encounter
The two of them chatted for a while. Seeing that there was not much to gain, Yang Bo turned around and left.
Lee Ling looked at Yang Bo's back as he left, deep in thought. The two of them walked in because they were of similar ages, and because Yang Bo had a kind personality, he was willing to get close to him. However, Yang Bo had become more and more mysterious recently, and he could not understand it.
After returning to the Ancient Pavilion, Lee Ling told Jia Huairen about what happened to Yang Bo today. In the end, he concluded, "I feel that I can't see through Big Bo anymore."
Jia Huairen looked at Lee Ling and thought about the stubborn youth from that day. He was unwilling to let his nephew come into contact with Yang Bo, so he asked, "Did your friend tell you that he bought a copy of the Ming釉 Fish Basket Bottle from the Qing Dynasty two days ago?"
Lee Ling was startled and shook his head with a smile. He said, "His skill is only so-so, not much better than mine. I'm afraid it's fake!"
"No, it's a genuine item. I saw it with my own eyes. It was at the Ghost Market last time!" Jia Huairen paid attention to Lee Ling's expression and saw that he was finally moved. He laughed and said, "Look, you value him, but he doesn't treat you as a true friend. Otherwise, why wouldn't he share it with you, who is your best friend?"
Lee Ling sat at the side and did not speak. His expression changed continuously. Although he had a premonition that the friendship between the two of them had rapidly faded, he still did not expect it to be so fast!
"Lee Ling, don't be easily deceived by others, and don't trust any outsider easily. You must know that a jade test needs three days to burn, and a material test needs seven years! The distance between the road and the horse's back is known, and the speed of the horse's heart is known!" Jia Huairen laughed as he spoke, "Now that I say these words, you might not be willing to believe it, but this is the experience of our decades!"
Lee Ling sat there blankly, not knowing what to think for a moment.
After a while, Jia Huairen suddenly asked, "I remember that you once said that Yang Bo's family has someone sick and is in need of money, right?"
Lee Ling nodded blankly, "It's his father with liver cancer, and he needs a large sum of medical expenses."
"Oh, I see!" Jia Huairen nodded and said again, "So, I remember that he appeared at our door a few days ago and was with that guy who cheated money. I think that this matter might not be done by Grandet Guo, and perhaps it was planned by him alone!"
"It can't be, he shouldn't do that!" Lee Ling argued.
"Don't be anxious to explain, after all, the heart is in the stomach!" Jia Huairen sighed with emotion.
"You are tired too. Go back and rest early tonight. I still have some things to discuss with someone here!" Jia Huairen said.
Lee Ling's mind was filled with questions, and he didn't know if he had heard what Jia Huairen had said. He nodded and left.
When Jia Huairen saw Lee Ling leave, he sighed softly. He could not blame himself for this matter. It was that brat who did not know how to appreciate favors!
Yang Bo returned to the shop and tidied up a little. After dinner, his eyelids were already starting to twitch.
After reading for a while, he could not take it anymore and went to bed early.
...
When Yang Bo woke up again at dawn, he was a little hesitant. There were quite a few items in the Ghost Market, but there were very few good items. After walking around for a long time yesterday, he did not find a single authentic item. This made him feel a little unhappy.
However, for the 850,000 yuan, he still got up quickly. This was also an opportunity. Perhaps he could gather the money sooner if he caught it!
Last time, he sold the incomplete painting of the mountain root of the rain for 350,000 yuan. He transferred 200,000 yuan home, and he still had 150,000 yuan left. Yesterday, he sold the bronze Pattern Cup from the early period of the Shang Dynasty for 25,000 yuan. In this way, he had almost seventeen and fifty thousand yuan in his hands!
Entering the Ghost Market again, he was noisy and bustling. There were vendors everywhere, and miscellaneous items were strewn all over the place.
Because he had learned his lesson yesterday, Yang Bo was not as patient and meticulous as he was yesterday when he looked at the items. Because in the Ghost Market, most of the people who came to trade were small stalls and shops around Jinling. The items that they needed were not high in quality, and the workmanship of the fakes was also very low. As a result, most of the items were rough, and there were very few authentic items. There might even be none.
After a long time, Yang Bo still could not find anything that caught his eye. He frowned and continued to look patiently.
"Hey, brother, do you want to come over and take a look?" Yang Bo was focused on looking when he suddenly heard someone call out from behind him.
He turned his head and saw a man in his thirties. He looked cunning and said in a low voice, "Brother, I have a few good things here. Are you coming?"
Yang Bo did not reply in a hurry. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. However, he had heard of this kind of situation before. The other party was Xian Er, the middleman. He wanted to pull her in as an intermediary to get a commission. The reason why this kind of situation occurred was that some items could not be seen in the open. It could even cause trouble if they were placed on the street.
"Where is it?" Yang Bo asked.
"Not far. Don't worry. I, Lee Er, have been hanging around in this street for a few days. I have a reputation. I will definitely not beat you up!" The man laughed.
"You, Lee Er, will never beat people up, but you have never been lenient when it comes to scamming customers!" The stall owner on the side seemed to have heard the conversation between the two of them. He stared at them coldly and added, "Lee Er, you have crossed the line. This is my stall. You are pulling people in front of my stall. Are you not giving me face?"
"Brother Zhang, I'm really sorry. Look, I didn't mean to do that. Take a cigarette! Take a cigarette!" Lee Er kept smiling on the surface, but he did not take it seriously. He took out a cigarette and threw it over.
Seeing this situation, Yang Bo could not help but frown. The other two people seemed to be doing this on purpose!
This was probably a trap! Yang Bo came to his senses. Even if Boss Zhang was magnanimous, he would not be able to help but feel unhappy about this business snatching. Lee Er had not pulled anyone over to the stall, but instead, he had pulled people over to the stall. This was clearly to let Zhang Xuan testify for him!
Furthermore, if this business was known by everyone, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?
Although he had guessed that the other party had set up a trap, Yang Bo considered it for a moment and decided to go over. After all, there were no good items in the Ghost Market. Staying there would only be a waste of time. It was better to go over and take a look. Even if it was a dangerous place, it would be worth it if he could gain something from it!
Of course, the reason Yang Bo was willing to follow him was because he did not have much money on him. He only had five thousand yuan. He believed that the other party would not be able to trick him much.
"Alright, Boss Lee, lead the way!" Yang Bo said.
"Alright, straightforward!" Lee Er grinned, revealing two rows of snow-white teeth.
