"Could it be that there are some great figures attending this treasure appraisal conference? Or is there some extraordinary treasure that will appear at this treasure appraisal conference, and the organizers are afraid that something might go wrong with the treasure, so they arranged so many security personnel?" A young man who was cracking melon seeds asked curiously to the middle-aged man next to him.
"Skinny monkey, I advise you to keep your voice down. If those security guards hear you, they might arrest you and beat you up. Have you forgotten that you got beaten up so badly last time just because you said the wrong thing? If I hadn't used my connections to get you out, the grass on your grave would be as tall as a man."
Seeing Skinny Monkey's unwillingness to listen, Brother Fei said angrily, "Skinny Monkey, if your father and I weren't friends and hadn't entrusted you to me before he died, do you think I would want to take care of you? Don't I know who you are? Skinny Monkey, let's not talk about the distant past, just talk about how many crimes you have committed over the years. Don't you have any idea? Do you want me to explain them to you one by one?"
Seeing Skinny Monkey still looking nonchalant, Fei Ge was completely disheartened and shouted, "Skinny Monkey, I'll give you that account book when I get back. Take a look for yourself. How much money have I paid and how many favors have I used to clean up your mess over the years?"
"I'm telling you clearly this time. If you're looking for death, I'll never save you again. I've already repaid the kindness your father showed me." Brother Fei had a furious look on his face.
Seeing the angry look on Brother Fei, who had always been submissive and treated him like his own son, Skinny Monkey panicked and stammered, "Fei, Brother Fei, you're being so formal. I know how good you are to me."
"I'm a human, not an animal. I can feel your kindness towards me. Brother Fei, don't worry. I won't talk nonsense anymore. I was just curious just now. If you tell me to shut up, I'll shut up and watch the show, okay? By the way, Brother Fei, do you want to sell my painting?"
"Shh, keep your voice down. It would be bad if someone heard and snatched it away. I feel like there's a big secret in that picture, but I don't know what it is. If you meet the right buyer, you can sell it."
The conversation between Fei Ge and Skinny Monkey did not attract many people's attention. After all, there were so many people at the scene, who would care about two unknown people?
Huo Qiqi's eyes turned, and she came in front of the two of them. She smiled at the skinny monkey and said, "Young man, I heard that you have a picture in your hand. Can you let me take a look at it? If it's suitable, I'm willing to pay for it."
Skinny Monkey glanced at Huo Qiqi. This girl was really beautiful. Of course, he didn't stare at her all the time. Looking at the way Huo Qiqi was dressed, he knew she was no ordinary person. He couldn't afford to offend such a person. "Boss, if the price is right, I want to sell my painting."
Huo Qiqi looked at the picture handed to her by the skinny monkey and looked at it carefully. She turned on her eyes of perspective and was surprised to find that there was another picture inside this picture. After seeing the content on the picture clearly, Huo Qiqi felt that it should be a treasure map.
"To be honest, I can't tell what's in your picture either. But I like collecting some weird things. I'm willing to pay $20,000 for it. Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you. It's business, it's a matter of mutual consent."
When he heard the price of 20,000 dollars, Skinny Monkey didn't say anything, because 20,000 dollars did not meet his psychological expectations, but he also knew that this picture had been seen by many people, and the highest bid was only 8,000 dollars. The 20,000 dollars given by Huo Qiqi was already very high.
"Skinny monkey, what are you still hesitating about? Don't you know that 20,000 dollars is already very good?" Brother Fei on the side saw a skinny monkey who didn't speak and said angrily.
"Boss, I have something else in my hand. Please take a look. If possible, I would like to combine the thing in my hand with the picture in your hand for 50,000 dollars. Of course, the price is negotiable." The skinny monkey seemed to have thought of something and said very seriously.
Looking at the small box handed over by the skinny monkey, Huo Qiqi opened it curiously, and found a small key inside.
Seeing Huo Qiqi didn't say anything, Skinny Monkey said anxiously, "Boss, to be honest, this key and the picture come together. I've never shown this key to anyone else. Since you're so sincere, I'll sell you the key as well."
When Huo Qiqi heard what Skinny Monkey said, she immediately became interested. She took out 50,000 dollars from her bag, gave it to Skinny Monkey, and turned and left.
Seeing Huo Qiqi leaving, Fei Ge smiled at Skinny Monkey and said, "Skinny Monkey, that's great. With these 50,000 dollars, you can run your business peacefully. I remember you always wanted to be your own boss."
Just as Skinny Monkey and Brother Fei were chatting casually, the crowd of onlookers started to make waves of noise. As everyone expected, the door of the treasure appraisal venue was opened.
A middle-aged man in a tuxedo and holding a microphone walked in front of the crowd with a happy face.
"Good evening, everyone. Thank you for coming here to participate in this treasure appraisal conference. Let me first introduce myself. My name is Mike, and I am the host of this treasure appraisal conference."
"As everyone knows, our treasure appraisal conference is held every two years, and this is already the 10th. This year is different from previous years. The scale of this year is far greater than in previous years, and the rewards are also exceptionally generous. I hope everyone will actively sign up to participate."
Seeing the street already crowded with interested people, Mike continued, "I hope to discover a truly capable treasure appraiser at this treasure appraisal conference."
