"Master Tang, we finally have you here!" Lin Shu, an old professor in his fifties, called Master Tang without any pause.

I feel embarrassed to call you Fang Zongtang.

"You don't have to call me Master Tang, just call me Brother Zong Tang!"

Lin Shu: "That's impossible! What if you release snakes into our house again? Will I be able to survive?"

Will he remember this for the rest of his life?

Wasn't it that when she was in Jingdezhen before, she fell in love with a big rooster he raised and wanted him to stew it, but he didn't want to.

Did she secretly put a snake in their cooking pot?

Doesn’t it taste delicious?

"You are a very old man, but you have a very narrow mind!"

Lin Shu smiled and said, "Thank you for cooking the only big rooster in my family into a beggar's chicken and leaving the chicken's head and butt for me."

As if he was afraid of not being able to piss him off to death!

She also had an explanation.

"Who made you so stingy? I just want to learn how to dot the green jade from you, right?"

Lin Shu was so angry that he laughed: "Why are you plucking my rooster's feathers when you are learning how to do the green jade?"

She also has reasons.

"I heard from my great-grandfather that the feathers used in the inlays are kingfisher feathers. Chickens have wings and feathers after all, so we can just use some of them."

Lin Shu was so angry that he had nothing to say.

"Others learn a skill by kowtow three times and nine times to recognize the master. But when it's your turn, not only do I have to give in the skill, I also have to give in a chicken?"

She was in the mood for an argument.

"I gave you a chicken leg, but you didn't want it?"

Lin Shu had forgotten his anger for seven or eight years, and it came back again.

Juanhua Liu also understood what was said and hurried to try to stop the fight.

"Alright, alright, the two of you are worth over a hundred dollars together. Why are you arguing on a busy street? Let's put our things down and go look at the house first."

Lin Shu was so angry at Fang Zongtang that he forgot about his business.

"Yes, yes, yes, while it's not too late, let me transfer the house to your name first, so that you don't have to worry about it!"

Lin Shu heard from Juanhua Liu that the Fang family members in Hai City are now chasing Fang Zongtang everywhere.

There's no telling when he'll catch up with them and come to Beijing. If he can get it done sooner rather than later, he'll be able to breathe a sigh of relief.

The courtyard house is vacant, so we can just transfer the ownership. The storefront has been rented out for two years, and only half a year has passed. It was originally rented out by the street, so it is unlikely that the tenant will move out.

But the rent can be paid to Fang Zongtang, and when the lease expires, they can discuss whether to renew the lease.

The waters in Beijing are complicated, so she wanted to explore the way first.

The courtyard houses were located on three streets, and she went directly to the one with the best decoration.

There is a large courtyard with three entrances and three exits, a rockery, a pond, and the house has two-story eaves, which is very grand!

More importantly, the old imperial palace is just across the street.

In the words of her great-grandfather, she was touched by dragon energy.

The location is good and the Feng Shui is good. It is even better that it is still so well preserved after so many years!

After spending a day setting up the shop and completing all the formalities, Lin Shu got down to business.

"We received news that there will be a pair of golden rhino horn cups from Xia Country at an auction in Beautiful Country next month. We want you to help buy them back. Of course, we will pay for it ourselves this time, so you don't have to spend any money!"

She said something must be wrong.

"Why don't you ask anyone else to go to the auction? Why do you have to ask me?"

It’s not like she’s the only patriotic businessman.

Lin Shu glanced at her and said the reason: "Because it was a private auction!"

She felt there must be a reason.

"Even if it's a private auction, we can always find someone else!"

She had to find out the reason today.

Lin Shu said with a stiff upper lip: "Because the antique dealer refuses to allow any Xia people to participate in his auction, and you know him!"
