Chapter 142 Go Home

Mr. Chen was sitting in front of the desk in his study. On the table was a Ru kiln celadon washbasin. The celadon color was like the cloudless sky, with fine "crab claw" cracks on it.

"After the rain, the sky clears and the clouds break," and "Thousands of peaks become green and blue."

Mr. Chen looked at it obsessively, with pain in his eyes. When he thought about the brush leaving him, he wished he could go with it.

Chen Guochang pushed open the door of the study and saw the old man looking at the pen washer foolishly. He lowered his eyes and sat opposite the old man.

"Dad, don't be so stubborn as to sacrifice your life. If you lose your life, you will lose everything, right?"

Master Chen said angrily, "How dare you say that? If you hadn't caused such a big disaster, would I have to clean up the mess for you?"

"Dad, what you said is wrong. If I hadn't worked so hard to bring money home, would you have lived such a comfortable life? You are enjoying this blessing, but now that something bad has happened, you want to hide away?"

"You little bastard, if I want to shrink my head, can I get that woman here?"

"So what's going on? Has the port been changed?" Chen Guochang was still anxious. Only the one whose flesh is cut will feel the pain. Today the old director talked to him, and the investigation team will be here in the next two days. If he can't think of a solution, he will have to run away.

Of course, if he wanted to run away, he would run away alone and would not take anyone at home with him.

"Ah, that woman is also greedy. After seeing the list, she almost got in. She has already agreed to the conditions there and agreed to send her own five-color jadeite over. However, the item is in Hong Kong City. I asked her to negotiate with them to see if she can give them the pen wash and exchange the item first."

"You should urge the Ji family to mail the things over quickly. You have seen what that woman is like. If they agree to the change, these things will never be mailed over.

Yuan Tingchuan is not a fool, how could he agree to do such a thing? Let them mail the things as soon as possible."

Old Master Chen nodded. This made sense. He didn't need to bother discussing it anymore, as it seemed like it would be useless.

But what if?

Du Ruo sat on the sofa, holding the Chenghua Doucai Fish Lotus Bowl in her hands, feeling full of emotion. The workmanship was exquisite, and the clay was delicate. It must have gone through so many ups and downs to get to where it is now. She said softly, "Let's go home."

The next day, when Bai Minhua went to see Du Ruo, he discussed giving her the brush wash first.

"Your uncle is waiting for help. I will exchange the brush washer with you for something. My jade will be here in two days."

"Mom, please don't make me laugh. If I change today, I may never see your jade again in my lifetime."

Bai Minhua's eyes widened with anger. This poor child, how could he be so unlovable?

When Bai Minhua came back with the reply, although it was within Mr. Chen's expectations, he still couldn't help being disappointed.

Three days later, the piece of Wu Fucai top-grade jadeite finally landed on the ground. The transaction was carried out quickly without any further ado from either party.

Chen Guochang finally got the Chenghua Doucai Fish and Lotus Bowl that he had been longing for. He rushed to the museum overnight. The moment he came out of the museum, Chen Guochang breathed a sigh of relief. Thank God, he finally got it.

Du Ruo placed the Ru kiln celadon washbasin and the five-color jadeite on the tea table.

She sat by and looked at the two objects, unable to let go of them.

Ling Yun exclaimed in exaggeration: "Wow, Ruoruo, you are rich. Ruyao, I only have one at home. My grandfather treats it like a treasure all day long and won't let me play with it."

"Bah, Ling Xiaosan, I'm warning you, you are not allowed to play with my pen wash, or I'll beat you up."

"Why are you so stingy? I'm just playing with it for a while, how can I ruin it?"

Han Zhe and Yuan Shurui were lying on the coffee table, looking at the five-color jadeite in amazement. It was really beautiful, and each color was so even. Not only was it highly transparent, it also looked festive.

Ji Bailin had no interest in jadeite. It originally belonged to his family and he had seen it hundreds of times. However, this Ru kiln brush washer was quite interesting.

He was quite interested in studying the "crab claw pattern". This pattern is very interesting. It looks chaotic, but it actually contains a lot of secrets.

Yuan Tingchuan had no interest in either of these two things. His family was in the jade and antique business, so he didn't want to see too many of these things.

Ling Yun and Ji Bailin were playing with the two children, while Du Ruo and Yuan Tingchuan were whispering to one another.

"They took the stuff, didn't they? Didn't you send someone to follow and check?"

"What are you looking at? Chen Guochang is more anxious to get it back home than you are. As long as it can be returned to its original owner, the form is not important. I will "donate" those things back in a while."

"How much benefit did the Chen family give to Ms. Bai? Why did she have to work so hard?"

Du Ruo knew her own mother too well, so it was impossible for her to work for nothing.

Yuan Tingchuan drank tea from a covered bowl and said in a cold tone, "No matter what you give, there must be something wrong. Think about what Chen Guochang does?"

What does Chen Guochang do? He makes counterfeits, right?

Du Ruo was surprised. Her mother had played the eagle all her life, but was fooled by others? Du Ruo smiled. Poor Ms. Bai...

At the same time, Han Ming was also negotiating business with Smith on behalf of the Qu family.

"You don't need me to explain it too clearly. You know the origin of this batch of goods. My father-in-law is not convenient to talk to you. As the saying goes, don't let others know what you have learned. After we leave today, we will pretend that we don't know each other. If you are interested, you can keep the goods. If not, I will find someone else."

"If you accept this price, we can continue our discussion. Just as you said, I will not mention this matter again in the future."

"The price you offered is too low. This box of toys is all top-quality. Even if it's a bargain, you should at least give me one, right?"

Mr. Smith lowered his head and thought for a long time. He said, "I just want to know how the things came from. I can only pay 5 million at most. No more."

Han Ming kept cursing this foreigner in his heart, saying that he was too evil-hearted. If things worked out well, one or two items in here would be worth this price. This was really not even as cheap as cabbage. However, things had come to this point, and he couldn't keep the things in his hands. He had better exchange them for real gold and silver.

"I agree to the price you mentioned, but I have a request. I want cash. My father-in-law has told me that this matter must not be known to anyone. Do you understand?"

"No problem. You don't want to leave any traces. I understand."

Han Ming took 5 million in cash and went to a bank in the neighboring province overnight. After a whole day and night of hard work, he finally got the matter done.

He hurried back to the village, dealt with the matter, and took Qu Xin to find Qu's father.
