The 70th day of being eavesdropped

The 70th day of being eavesdropped Gu Jinshui

really didn’t care whether An Yi was a member of the An family or not, or whether he was faking it.

To put it bluntly, they were just casual acquaintances. If it wasn’t for the unfortunate coincidence that An Xin bumped into Gu Jinshui, and if it wasn’t for Gu Jinshui and his friends’ need for a bargain, Gu Jinshui wouldn’t bother to pay attention to him.

After getting this thing, He Fei suddenly became very excited, and he could talk and sing while walking, and he stopped nagging while eating.

When the day agreed with Mr. Cai came, He Fei took Gu Jinshui and his friends over, and showed the thing to the old man first.

When Mr. Cai saw the amber snuff bottle, his eyes lit up like a cat, “Grandpa Cai, what do you think of this thing? Is it okay?” He Fei still had to pretend to be humble.

Mr. Cai stroked his beard happily, played with the snuff bottle in his hand, and nodded, "He Fei, you have made great progress. Your grandfather can be considered to have a successor."

"Hey, you are raising the younger generation, and the younger generation is lucky to have friends who are willing to help." Although He Fei was vain and caring about face, he did not take the credit for himself, but pointed at Gu Jinshui and said, "This is all thanks to the help of my friend."

Mr. Cai glanced at Gu Jinshui and smiled, "This young man is good-looking. Is he married?"

He Fei: "..."

Why didn't you ask me before, but asked this because you see that he is good-looking.

Gu Jinshui smiled and said, "We're married and have a child."

"Oh, that's great. Xiaofei, you're not young anymore. You should find a partner when you go back." Mr. Cai said.

He Fei was really in a dilemma. He was urged to get married at home and when he went out, he said quickly, "Grandpa Cai, don't worry. I'll go on a blind date when I get back. Tell me first if you are satisfied with this thing?"

"Satisfied, of course I am."

Mr. Cai couldn't let it go. He took a small box to put the snuff bottle in, and then handed the box next to it to He Fei, "Okay, He Fei, I'll give it to you first."

"Wait!"

The anxious voices of Song Jianshe and others came from outside the door.

Song Jianshe ran into the house, glanced at Gu Jinshui, and then said to Mr. Cai: "Mr. Cai, you promised us before that you would look at our things before making a decision. We haven't even brought anything out yet."

Mr. Cai smiled, but said in a tone that did not allow for explanation: "That's not necessary. I don't think you can come up with anything better."

"Why not?" Guo Pu looked at Liang Renyi with full confidence, "Take out our bronze mirror and show it to Mr. Cai."

Liang Renyi quickly opened the bag and carefully took out a copper mirror that had been wiped. The copper mirror was still gray when he saw it the day before, and the pattern on the back was difficult to see clearly. It was estimated that Guo Pu had repaired it in the past few days. When he took it out, the mirror surface was like water, and the gold and silver flat phoenix pattern on the back of the mirror was also very grand, which made people know at a glance that it was a good thing of some weight.

Mr. Cai took a look and exclaimed. He took it, looked left and right, and nodded, "Okay, it is indeed a bronze mirror from the Tang Dynasty. You have good eyes."

Song Jianshe couldn't help smiling.

But Mr. Cai returned the item to him, pinching his beard and shaking his head, saying, "It's a pity that they chose an amber snuff bottle for me. You also know that amber snuff bottles are rare. If you miss this bronze mirror, you can still find it again. Once you miss this kind of amber snuff bottle, you may not be able to see it again."

"Amber snuff bottle?"

Song Jianshe was surprised and looked at Gu Jinshui suspiciously.

He said to Mr. Cai, "Mr. Cai, make sure it is the real thing, not made of plastic."

Gu Jinshui chuckled.

Mr. Cai laughed loudly, picked up the box, opened it, and showed it to everyone like a treasure. "Look, this kind of luster can only be made of plastic. If this is a snuff bottle made of plastic, then I will admit defeat."

Song Jianshe's eyes were almost glued to the snuff bottle.

His head buzzed, and he rubbed his eyes, wondering if he was hallucinating.

This snuff bottle is obviously very similar to the fake one he bought at a loss, but Song Jianshe can see that this thing is extraordinary.

How could it be?

"How did this thing come into your hands?" Song Jianshe stared at Gu Jinshui suspiciously.

He obviously tacitly accepted that it was Gu Jinshui who got the thing.

After all, the person who knows you best is often your opponent.

Gu Jinshui said with a smile: "You may not believe me, but I really picked it up. I found it on the road."

"I found it on the road. Try to do it again."

Song Jianshe's words were full of gunpowder.

No matter who thinks he has won, but is overtaken by his mortal enemy, he will not feel good.

"Okay, you show me how to buy this bronze mirror, and I will show you how we get this snuff bottle."

Gu Jinshui crossed his arms, raised his chin, raised his eyebrows, and looked very rude.

"Well, we lose this time."

Guo Pu stared at Gu Jinshui and said, "But don't be too proud. We are all in the same industry. There are plenty of times for us to fight."

"That's great. I'll wait."

Gu Jinshui was not afraid of such words. When he was fighting on the road, he didn't know where this old thing was hiding.

With Zheng Banqiao's painting, it would be much easier to get the house.

The old house is located near Dongguan Main Street. Gu Jinshui had never been here before. This was his first time. He was amazed just by walking around. This old house should actually be called a villa.

The architectural style combines Chinese and Western styles. Even if it has not been carefully maintained for decades, the grand atmosphere is still there. Shanhu

's jaw is about to drop to the ground.

He exclaimed: "The old man who just left looked so dry, but I didn't expect that he lived in such a nice house. His family used to be a capitalist?"

Although He Fei was also surprised, he pretended well. He coughed and sat down on the official hat chair, saying: "How could it be possible? This old man is just a gatekeeper. This house really belonged to a capitalist. Do you know Shi Fengxiang?"

Gu Jinshui and Shanhu shook their heads.

Both of them stopped studying early, and the name Shi Fengxiang sounded a bit old. How could ordinary people know him?

He Fei immediately proudly told them who Shi Fengxiang was. In the past, the local tyrants in Xi'an, Dahua Textile Factory and Dahua Flour Factory were all opened by their family.

More importantly, this person has a close relationship with Huang Jinrong and Lao Jiang, especially Lao Jiang, whose children are in-laws.

"No way, then does that mean that Huaqiao is a descendant of the Shi family?"

Gu Jinshui asked.

He Fei frowned: "I don't know that. The overseas Chinese didn't tell us his last name. He just said his name was Tom."

"Tom, what kind of name is that?"

Shanhu shook his head and said, "It's not even as nice as mine."

He Fei smiled and said, "Why do you care whether his name is nice or not? Anyway, we'll sell the house to Tom and split the money 60:40. He gives us U.S. dollars. We can make some money on the black market."

Nowadays, overseas Chinese and foreigners in the country have to exchange their money for foreign exchange bonds for consumption. They are not allowed to use U.S. dollars directly. However, many people in the private sector are delighted and are buying up U.S. dollars. The money exchanged for U.S. dollars on the black market is more than that for foreign exchange bonds.

When Shanhu heard this, he also showed an expectant look on his face.

Gu Jinshui asked, "When are you going to meet Tom?"

"Tomorrow." He Fei touched his chin and said, "Tom is busy buying things from the Lin family. I guess he won't pay attention to our little thing."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

Gu Jinshui nodded without hesitation.

This matter was finally done, and they were just waiting to get the money. Both Gu Jinshui and Shanhu were a little excited.

Gu Jinshui took Shanhu to a restaurant. While they were eating, someone came to the next table. He thought it was someone who wanted to share the table. He looked up when the person spoke, "It's you. What's the matter?"

Liang Renyi was so shameless. He had been snatching things from Gu Jinshui before, but now he sat down with a smile, "Brother-in-law, why are you so formal? I have to have something to ask you?" "

If you have something to say, say it. If not, get out."

Gu Jinshui had no intention of giving Liang Renyi a good face. This bastard had cheated his wife for so many years and robbed them of food and drink in their house. Now he was even overstepping the line. He didn't break his legs because of their kinship.

"Brother-in-law, I have something to do, but it's a big deal for me, but a small deal for you."

Liang Renyi pinched his thumb and index finger together, "Can you do us a favor and let us live in that old house for a few days?"

"What old house?"

Gu Jinshui mixed the noodles in the bowl and looked at Liang Renyi in confusion.

Liang Renyi said, "It's the old house that the overseas Chinese wanted. Is that okay? Don't rush to give it to the overseas Chinese. Let us go inside and take a look. We won't let you help us in vain. Give us money."

Liang Renyi took out a handful of change from his pocket and stuffed it into Gu Jinshui's pocket.

Gu Jinshui hurriedly grabbed his hand: "Come on, let's stop. What are you doing? Don't come to me for this. I can't help you."

"No, I'm your brother-in-law after all. Are you so cold?"

Liang Renyi looked at Gu Jinshui in disbelief, stood up and accused: "It's just a small favor, and I'm not asking you to do anything. You don't help. Are you still a relative?"

His voice was not small, and the people who were eating around looked over. Each of them had an interested look on his face, and it was obvious that they wanted to see the excitement.

Gu Jinshui frowned and slammed the table, "I gave you face, right? You are a gambler and you sold our house and bicycle, and you still want me to lend you money. Brother-in-law, stop gambling. If you continue, my sister-in-law will jump into the river with the children."

"What? Don't talk nonsense." Liang Renyi didn't react, but retorted subconsciously.

Gu Jinshui sighed, "Okay, go now. I said no, it's not possible. Even if you kneel down here and beg me, I won't help you."

"What you said is right, young man. Gambling harms people. You are such an adult, why are you still gambling? You are really asking for your life."

"What are you doing, kid? You even need to borrow money to gamble. You are such a fool!"

The uncles and aunts in the restaurant couldn't stand it anymore and scolded Liang Renyi.

Liang Renyi couldn't stand the righteous voice of the crowd and ran away. He cursed Gu Jinshui in his heart that he was as cunning as a thief. He didn't take any soft or hard tactics.

What should he do about this matter?
