Chapter 24 Unexpected Fortune!



Could you leave me your contact information?

Judging from the train police officer's words, does this mean they'll be rewarding people for their good deeds in the future?

However, Jiang Si didn't care much about this. She was already quite satisfied that she could be arranged to stay in a soft sleeper compartment.

After a good night's sleep, the train arrived at its final destination – Guangzhou – around 6 p.m. the next day!

Jiang Si first informed her third uncle that she was safe, and then found a guesthouse nearby to rest for the night.

The next morning, Jiang Si took a car to a place called Liujiawan in the suburbs.

In the original book, Liu Dajiang and Liu Dahe, who helped their scumbag father handle the family property matters, were native to Liujiawan.

The two brothers have lived a fairly comfortable life under Shen Xiuwen's care over the years.

So several years ago, they built two large brick and tile houses side by side in the village.

The yard alone is several hundred square meters!

All I can say is that God is quite kind to her.

When Jiang Si arrived, the Liu brothers were not at home.

After observing the surroundings and confirming that there were no villagers nearby, Jiang Si took out a ladder from her spatial storage.

Before long, she found the antique furniture and decorative items that her scumbag father had brought over in the house on the left...

There were more than 200 boxes in total, of all sizes!

Looking at the Jiang family's ancestral property that had been lost and then recovered, Jiang Si breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as she was about to put these things into her spatial storage, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, indicating that quite a few people were coming.

Soon, Liu Dajiang, the eldest brother of the Liu family, went into the house, carried a box of things, and went to the main room outside.

"Mr. Cheng, no matter how well I describe the product, it's useless. You know better than us. Take a look first, and then we'll talk about the price."

A moment later, another male voice rang out.

"Not bad, it's good stuff."

"That's for sure, these are all ancestral properties of the Jiang family in Shanghai."

Liu Dajiang said, "Boss Cheng, we don't want much, just HKD 100,000! If it's okay, you can take these things away now."

HK$100,000 sounds like a lot, but besides the large antique furniture pieces, there are more than two hundred boxes of other items here.

All together, this huge box only costs 500 yuan.

Boss Cheng made a killing on this business!

But the man just smiled and said, "Brother, if this were two years ago, let alone 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, even if it were doubled, I wouldn't even bother to haggle."

"But you all know the state of the world now."

“These things are not comparable to gold bars. It’s not easy to move them, and it’s even harder to say when they can be converted into cash.”

"I'm not going to play games with you. How about this, let's each compromise, HKD 50,000 is fine?"

"If that's okay, I'll get the money for you right now."

"Mr. Cheng, are you kidding me?"

The second son of the Liu family was the type to say whatever came to mind, and he spoke frankly.

"You were the one who said that as long as the product is good, the price is not an issue, which is why we agreed to let you come and inspect the goods."

"And now you've done this damn thing!"

"Isn't this just making a fool of us brothers?"

"Also, who haggles down by half in one go?"

The eldest brother, Liu, shared the same idea, but the two brothers were used to one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop.

Seeing that Boss Cheng's expression darkened slightly, he quickly tried to smooth things over.

“Mr. Cheng, my brother is just a straightforward person. He says whatever comes to mind, so please don’t take offense.”

"As for the price you just mentioned, it's far too low..."

The man interrupted him at this moment, "Don't worry about the price, I'm curious about something right now."

The two brothers were completely bewildered by his nonsensical words.

"Mr. Cheng, what are you curious about?"

The man didn't rush to speak, but instead sized up Liu Lao Er with the eyes of someone looking at prey.

"What exactly does it mean to be straightforward?"

Upon hearing this, the Liu brothers felt a sudden jolt in their hearts.

Only then did Liu Lao Er realize that several burly men had appeared behind him.

Before he could speak, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his abdomen, and the person behind him covered his mouth.

The next second, the military dagger slid quickly down his belly in a semi-circle.

Suddenly, the contents of his stomach flowed out, and Liu Lao Er, realizing what had happened, was filled with fear.

Before his consciousness faded, he only heard this one sentence.

"Brother, you're being way too dishonest. You said you'd be straightforward, but he's not straightforward at all!"

"How about we check if yours is straight?"

"madman!"

"Cheng Jinting, you madman...you'd better give me your life!"

Boss Liu had barely uttered a shout when the man's henchmen snapped his neck with a snap.

At this moment, Jiang Si, who had witnessed the entire murder, was speechless.

She couldn't even remember where their conversation had started to fall apart.

How did a disagreement escalate to the point of murder?

Also, the name Cheng Jinting felt strangely familiar to her, as if she had heard it somewhere before...

At that moment, the man's cold voice rang out again.

"Pack your things, a car will come to pick you up in half an hour."

"Everyone, have a good meal and drinks today. We'll set off right after midnight the day after tomorrow."

"Once we return to Taicheng, each person will receive an extra 10 large yellow croakers as a reward."

Upon hearing that there would be a reward, the men who had just made the move immediately smiled.

The group cupped their hands and smiled, "Thank you, young master."

Perhaps the words "young master" gave Jiang Si a slight jolt, and a few images instantly flashed through her mind.
