Chapter 6: The Treasure of the Store



The mottled sunlight shone through the elm branches and hit him obliquely.

Wearing a Dacron shirt with the hem tucked into the waistband, she is more dazzling than the model in the advertisement.

Li Xiujun still remembers that it was at this time that she was deceived and fell in love.

When I think about what I experienced in my previous life, I want to rush up and shove the head of this hypocritical guy into the cesspool.

Gu Ming was a little unhappy because he didn't get a response for a long time.

But this slight unhappiness quickly disappeared when he saw the appearance of the girl next to his uncle.

Most southern girls have delicate features and are as gentle as water. However, this Li family girl, although her clothes are a little gray and worn, can't hide her pair of eyes as clear and bright as lake water.

Compared to those women who put on makeup all day long, her cheeks are rosy and her lips are delicate and juicy, each of which is perfectly arranged on this fair face.

Cool and clear.

For some reason, Gu Qingming felt a little uneasy when he saw his nephew staring at Li Xiujun.

He took a step forward and blocked all the gazes.

"Dad is drinking tea with Uncle Li in there. Be careful when you go in."

Gu Ming didn't know why, but he had always been inexplicably afraid of his third uncle since he was a child.

Fortunately, apart from family meals and gatherings on weekdays, we don’t have the opportunity to meet each other at other times.

Why did he suddenly become a different person today?

This confusion was nothing compared to the girl in front of him, so Gu Ming quickly put it behind his mind.

"Sister, you've finally come to Jingshi. I'm afraid you haven't tried our authentic Jingshi roast duck and Goubuli steamed buns yet. Since I have nothing to do later, why don't you show me the way?"

The corners of the mouth are raised to just the right degree.

If it were any other girl, she might have been so excited that she would indulge in the beautiful dream created by Gu Ming.

Unfortunately, the one he faced was her, Li Xiujun, who had seen his true face, had her feelings toyed with, and then been abandoned!

Simply cutting someone's neck with a knife can only relieve the hatred in your heart temporarily.

Only by slowly slicing people and pulling them down harshly when they are at their most proud,

Thinking of this, Li Xiujun calmed down.

Gu Qingming frowned and was about to speak when he was interrupted by the voice behind him: "Okay, this is my first time in Beijing, Qing... Third Uncle, why don't you go back first."

I almost let the cat out of the bag.

Gu Qingming knew the nature of these nephews very well.

After all, the two had only known each other for a few days, and he didn't have the status to say anything, so he gave some instructions and went back.

Only by getting rid of these people would it be easier for Li Xiujun to do the next thing.

Doesn’t Gu Ming always like to create a decent image in front of outsiders?

Her first step was to tear off his mask!

The two of them took a taxi to the busy street. Li Xiujun looked at the huge crowd and felt a little uneasy. "So many people? How about...we go somewhere else?"

After all, they came from those small cities in the remote corners. Gu Ming took a glance and felt full of contempt in his heart.

"Sister, if you come to Beijing, you can't miss the Cultural Street. Don't worry, the things here are not expensive. Just look around and I'll pay for anything you like."

I've been waiting for you to say this.

A certain victim didn't realize that he had walked into a trap.

Li Xiujun initially just stopped at the snack stall, but then she saw some really nice clothes displayed in the windows, so she touched her pocket and looked back every three steps.

Anyway, she will be his girlfriend sooner or later, and it would be embarrassing to dress too poorly.

Gu Ming brought the person in very generously, and when he came out, he could barely hold the rope of the packaging bag with his left and right hands.

"Did I buy too much? I'm sorry, this is my first time in such a big place. I brought out dozens of dollars. I might as well pay for the rest later."

Li Xiujun lowered her head shyly and reached out to help carry a few.

The girlish attitude of his beloved greatly satisfied Gu Ming's vanity.

He stared at her and said, "No, sister, since you're new here, I should naturally do my best to be a good host."

"Look at it as you like, look at it as you like, don't be polite to me."

The worst that can happen is a few months’ pocket money. As the saying goes, money can’t buy a beautiful woman’s happiness.

The man suddenly became full of energy and rushed to the front to introduce the customs and culture of Beijing.

Li Xiujun stopped in her tracks, a hint of contempt hidden in her lips.

The two of them walked around for a long time before stopping at an antique shop.

Gu Ming thought she just wanted to buy some gold and jade bracelets, so he waved his hand and asked the shop assistants to take out a few that were of decent quality.

While the other party was paying, Li Xiujun whispered softly in the boss's ear.

"I have a deal. You don't have to spend a penny, and you can even make money. As long as you cooperate with me, this way..."

Even though the boss couldn't figure out what was going on with these two people, he had seen countless strange things in the store over the years.

What's more, just by talking, money will flow into your pocket.

You'd be a fool not to make money if you have the chance.

Li Xiujun quickly glanced at the items in the store and soon found her target.

It was a tortoise-shell glazed teacup imitating the Song Dynasty style, with a rich hue of black and yellow. The patterns on the glaze were especially striking, almost indistinguishable from the real thing.

If she hadn't had a lifetime of experience identifying antiques, she would probably have been cheated.

He leaned in towards the direction and pretended to be amazed: "Wow, this is tortoise shell glaze from the Song Dynasty, worthy of being from Beijing. I have only seen it in books before."

"Miss, you have a good eye. I had a chance to buy this from a collector I once knew two years ago. I've kept it in our shop as our treasure ever since."

The boss clapped his hands and quickly cooperated.

Gu Ming didn't know anything about porcelain, he was only interested in showing his courtesy.

"Since you like it, just wrap it up. Boss, how much is this?"

Reach for your wallet.

The boss was afraid that he would change his mind, so he quickly asked his assistant to take it out: "I didn't expect to meet someone who knows the value of the goods today. Little brother, I won't be polite with you anymore. The price is 30,000. I spent a full 50,000 on it..."

How many?

Thirty thousand?

Gu Ming's body seemed to be nailed to the spot, and he didn't hear a word of the rest of the words.

He puts most of the pocket money his family gives him directly into his wallet. A few days ago, he went to a hair salon with his friends and ordered some massage girls.

After all the calculations, there are only about 30,000 left.

If you spend this money, you won't be able to live comfortably outside for at least the whole year.

Li Xiujun seemed to see his hesitation and looked at another worn pocket watch in the corner with understanding. "It's such a valuable thing. It's useless for you to give it to me. This pocket watch will do."

"How can that be?" Before Gu Ming could express his gratitude, the boss interrupted disapprovingly, "This pocket watch is only worth a hundred or two hundred. How can a man who is so reluctant to spend money be trusted?"
