Chapter 463 Mr. Chen
Xia Zhizhi shook her head to reject her kindness: "No, there are so many things, I want them all, and it's impossible for me to take pictures of them all."
Leaving aside the jewelry and the like, Xia Zhizhi felt indescribably unhappy when she saw some antiques being bought by foreigners.
In her heart, those things all belong to China.
Xia Zhizhi was not so perverted as to demand that all the good things belong to her.
As a Chinese, she only cares about her own things as long as they are in her own pockets. But she was unhappy when someone put the things in someone else's pocket in front of her.
After coming out of the auction house, Chen Ruoyi had a lot of things with her, so she asked the driver to take them back to the hotel first.
Seeing Xia Zhizhi looking unhappy, Chen Ruoyi kindly comforted her: "I wanted to take you out to have some fun and buy you something you like, but I ended up making you unhappy. How about we go to Du Laohui tonight? I heard Xu Xiaofan was invited to sing today!"
Xu Xiaofan is a truly famous female singer in Hong Kong. Under normal circumstances, Xia Zhizhi would definitely go to join in the fun, after all, this can be considered a star concert.
But today she really wasn't in the mood and shook her head to reject Chen Ruoyi's kindness.
Because they didn't plan to go out to fool around tonight, after dinner, Xia Zhizhi changed into a pair of low-heeled shoes and went for a stroll in Central Plaza with Ah Ju.
In May, after the sun sets, the breeze blowing from the sea brings a little coolness, and it is quite comfortable with a gentle breeze.
When passing by a cold drink shop, Ah Ju bought an ice cream for her.
Xia Zhizhi licked the ice cream as she walked.
Ah Ju knew her character very well, and seeing that she was unhappy, he comforted her: "Otherwise, I will steal the jade back tonight."
Xia Zhizhi paused while eating the ice cream: "No thanks, I don't particularly like that stuff."
Ah Ju asked her, "Then why are you unhappy?"
Why else could she be unhappy? She just started to be pretentious, as the saying goes, she has had too many good days.
When people are hungry, they just want to eat, and they think that after they are full, there will be no more worries in the world.
Once they have eaten and drunk their fill, they immediately start looking for new troubles.
Xia Zhizhi was far away from her family at this time, just like Sun Wukong who had just come out of the Five Finger Mountain. She was free from any constraints and completely let herself go, eating, drinking and having fun every day.
When she was in China, she thought that if she could live a free and unrestrained life in Hong Kong, she didn't know what a cheerful little girl she would become.
After being cheerful for a few days, I felt that life was just like this. It’s not that it’s bad, but after too many days it just felt so-so.
Then she started to make trouble for herself, to find fault and to dislike those foreigners.
She sighed: "If it was taken by Hong Kong people, it would be fine, but I just don't want the British to take it away."
Seeing Ah Ju's expression, Xia Zhizhi thought he was going to push him into Hong Kong, so she quickly stopped him from talking: "Let's not talk about this anymore. It's impossible for everything in this world to go my way."
If Ah Ju was a person from Northeast China, he would have advised Xia Zhizhi to be less hypocritical, but Ah Ju was a robot. Seeing Xia Zhizhi so depressed, he immediately started thinking.
Ah Ju thought for a moment and suggested, "Why don't I go to the casino and win some money, and then we can buy all the antiques on the market. As long as you have the items, foreigners won't be able to buy them if you don't sell them."
Xia Zhizhi continued to worry: "But many of them have already been taken by foreigners."
Ah Ju said, "Let's go and get it back. They can't beat us anyway."
Xia Zhizhi shook her head: "We are all civilized people, not bandits. What's the big deal about stealing and robbing?"
Ah Ju suggested: "How about this, I'll go kidnap them, and then you go rescue them, and then let them use the antiques as rewards."
What's the difference between this and robbery? It's too uncool. Besides, it requires so many kidnappings and so many people to act out. Xia Zhizhi is not willing to do this: "I still want them to be willing and give me the things themselves. It would be best if I lay on the bed and they take turns to come forward with the things for me to choose."
The passers-by nearby were speechless when they heard Xia Zhizhi's shameless remarks. They probably advised Xia Zhizhi to eat shit in their hearts.
Ah Ju was embarrassed. He hesitated for a while: "How about we go buy it back?"
"They may not be willing to sell it." Xia Zhizhi did not make things difficult for Ah Ju: "Forget it, let's not dwell on it."
The two of them strolled all the way to the harbor. A ship was entering the harbor, and the roar of the ship became longer and longer, making people's ears buzz.
After a stroll, we arrived at Mid-Levels Central. Further up is the Mid-Levels villa area, which is also a famous wealthy area here.
Xia Zhizhi was tired from walking, so she jumped onto Ah Ju's back and prepared to go home.
There was a row of cars driving ahead. Nowadays, rich people also have cars, but they don't drive them in a row like this for fun. It's obvious that they belong to gangs.
Xia Zhizhi was in no mood to cause trouble, so she asked Ah Ju to carry her on his back and stand under a tree beside the road. With the trees as a cover, there was no way they would notice her.
Unexpectedly, these cars followed the road in front of them and drove directly into the gate of a villa below.
After the car stopped at the gate of the villa, someone went to ring the doorbell. Several people got out of each car, each holding an exquisite wooden box in their hands, which looked like they were there to give gifts.
Xia Zhizhi was a little curious and immediately used her mental power to check the scene.
The servant opened the door and welcomed the guest in. Unlike the magnificent decorations that Hong Kong people liked at that time, the house was decorated in a quiet and peaceful manner.
They went up the wooden-railed stairs to the second floor, and the servant led the leading man into the reception room on the second floor.
Oh, this is an acquaintance.
He was the Feng Shui master, Mr. Chen, whom Xia Zhizhi met when she was having dinner at the western restaurant in the hotel.
The leading man muttered for a long time, and Xia Zhizhi understood that the man was the leader of the Crouching Tiger Gang. He came to ask Mr. Chen to do something for him. The request was not small, so Mr. Chen did not agree at first.
But she couldn't resist the man's repeated pleas.
In Xia Zhizhi's opinion, he was mainly unable to resist the long line of boxes held in the hands of the brothers brought in by the man.
He must have made inquiries and catered to his tastes, buying some elegant collectibles such as porcelain, calligraphy and paintings.
This gift was given with good intentions, and Mr. Chen finally nodded and said reluctantly, "You know the rules of the underworld. Doing this, apart from anything else, may not be a good thing for you."
The man nodded: "Mr. Chen, I know. Just help me arrange it. I will take care of any consequences myself."
After saying this, he patted his chest and said, "Come and take my life if you dare. I have at least 80 lives in my hands. I am not afraid of that."
The two of them were busy planning. Xia Zhizhi glanced at the pile of wooden boxes, her eyes rolling around.
This Master Chen is quite good at business. With just a few words, he made a man lose everything for him.
