Chapter 85 Incident



Gu Wei felt that the person looked familiar, but couldn't remember who it was for a moment.

The other person smiled and reminded him, "We ran into Lao Guo, Guo Chengshen's shop a while ago."

Gu Wei suddenly realized: "Oh, it's Boss Qiu. I'm sorry..."

Qiu Rongxuan touched his bald head: "I recently got a new hairstyle, and many old friends are having trouble adjusting. Young man, are you interested in jade?"

Gu Wei didn't want him to know her true purpose, so she smiled faintly and said, "I'm just looking around."

“The ones down here aren’t the best. Why don’t we go upstairs and take a look?” Qiu Rongxuan suggested, pointing to the second floor.

Gu Wei didn't want to go upstairs, and politely said, "I'd like to walk around downstairs first."

Qiu Rongxuan didn't insist, and took out a business card, saying, "We're quite destined to meet. You can contact me if you need anything in the future."

"Okay." Gu Wei took the beautifully crafted business card, glanced at it, and realized that Old Qiu's name was Qiu Rongxuan.

The two were not familiar with each other, and their conversation was somewhat awkward.

Qiu Rongxuan quickly went upstairs.

Gu Wei didn't stay in the shop for long before leaving.

On the second floor, Qiu Rongxuan looked at the footage on the monitor, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

If his inference is correct.

The treasures that Lao Guo and his companions obtained should all have been made by this young man.

Unexpectedly, I happened to walk into his shop today.

A young man with an ordinary appearance but a strong build asked, "Boss, should I go and scout ahead to find out what's going on?"

Qiu Rongxuan pondered for a moment and said, "No need. This person is very vigilant and has something real. If we discover it, it will only backfire."

Gu Wei strolled around a few more shops, seemingly relaxed.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he was sure no one was following him.

Actually, it happened unexpectedly, and it wasn't a big deal.

However, he always felt that Old Qiu had a bit of a bandit-like air about him.

Gu Wei thought for a moment and then went to Guo Chengshen's shop.

Guo Chengshen was eagerly anticipating Gu Wei's arrival.

When she saw him finally appear, she smiled so much that the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes gathered together.

Gu Wei didn't want him to be disappointed, so he made it clear that he was just there for a casual stroll.

Guo Chengshen remained as enthusiastic as ever, leading him upstairs to a seat and brewing him a pot of fine tea.

The two chatted over tea, and after a while, Gu Wei casually remarked, "By the way, I also visited Old Qiu's shop that I met the other day, and he happened to be there too."

Guo Chengshen's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure. "Really? His shop is much bigger than mine."

Gu Wei put down his teacup, casually remarked that it was indeed a bit bigger, and immediately changed the subject.

Guo Chengshen couldn't help but overthink it.

Fearing that he would lose his clients, he tried everything he could to build a good relationship with Gu Wei.

Later, it was observed that Gu Wei seemed to be somewhat interested in gambling on stones.

He also shared many of his experiences and case studies from his years in the industry.

Gu Wei listened with great interest and learned a lot of useful information.

He decided to set off in the next few days to travel to a city near the border and buy cheap wool.

...

When Gu Wei returned to 84, it was already past dinner time.

As he passed by the clothing store, he glanced inside and noticed several female customers.

So, we went straight into the courtyard through the main gate.

Gu Hongjie and Lin Hang were sitting side by side on small stools by the door, playing with Rubik's Cubes.

It seems that one is teaching and the other is learning.

The chubby puppies were whimpering and playing with each other.

Gu Hongjie stood up when he saw Gu Wei. "Have you eaten? There's corn, meat buns, and braised roe deer meat in the pot."

Gu Wei raised an eyebrow: "And roe deer meat?"

"My Uncle Ke brought it over," Lin Hang quickly explained.

Gu Wei nodded to indicate that he understood, and then asked with concern, "Has the school enrollment been arranged?"

Lin Hang nodded happily: "It's all taken care of! Brother Gu, I can go with Xiao Jie in a couple of days when school starts!"

Gu Wei added, "Take good care of yourself when you go to school, and bring your medicine with you."

"I definitely will, Brother Gu. I'm able to go to school thanks to you, otherwise my sister wouldn't agree."

"Your sister is also worried about your health..."

Gu Wei told them to continue playing and then stepped into the house.

He had actually eaten some fast food hamburgers and wasn't very hungry anymore.

But I still washed my hands, lifted the pot lid, and looked inside.

Grandpa's cooking skills are unparalleled; the braised roe deer meat looks incredibly appetizing.

However, Gu Wei didn't touch it, but instead picked up a corn cob and started eating it.

The first bite revealed its tenderness, delicate fragrance, and subtle sweetness.

There's a lingering sweetness in your mouth after you finish eating it.

I can't help but sigh, the sticky corn I grow at home now is really delicious.

Even if we use this seed in modern times, we cannot grow the same taste.

Because the air, land, water, and so on are polluted too badly.

Just as Gu Wei finished eating one and was still craving more, a person suddenly entered the house pushing a cart, calling out, "Is Brother Gu home?"

When Gu Wei saw that it was Li Bin's older brother, Li Qiang, with such a solemn and anxious expression, he immediately had a bad feeling.

He quickly called out, "I'm here," and lifted the curtain to leave the room.

"What's wrong?"

Li Qiang was initially overjoyed, then said urgently, "Brother Gu, something's happened to my second son! He was robbed! He's in the hospital now!"

Gu Wei was extremely shocked, never expecting such a thing to happen.
