Power and Wealth

Five days later, afternoon.

Beachfront bathroom, grocery room.

Dong Xuebin held a pile of towels in his pants, "Shi, the room towels are not enough, we'll wash them as soon as possible. ”

“Well, you go first.” Little Shi seamlessly found two new sheets, "I went to the guest room to deliver something. ”

“By the way, grab a bag of laundry, that might not be enough. ”

Little Straw nodded and pushed the door out, "Got it. ”

For five consecutive days, Dong Xuebin was washing towels in the bath center, tired like his third grandson every day. He had never done so much work in his life. Though impatient, Dong Xuebin persisted in order to work. In addition to working, he consciously observed the bath center situation, such as where the manager's office was, such as where things could be hidden, such as who their boss was, etc., but because he was on a lower level, the harvest was small, and many things were unclear.

We can't go on like this. If we drag it down again, even if the artefacts are really here, they'll be transferred sooner or later! We have to do something!

Dong Xuebin walked down the corridor and was about to wash the towel in the back. Suddenly someone called him.

It was Flat Head, "Xie Hao, put the towel down first and follow me. ”

Dong Xuebin was suspiciously tight, “What are you doing? ”

“303 Guests over there need a massage, we don't have enough people right now, you go ahead and top it.” Little Flat Head commanded.

“But I didn't learn? ”

“Almost done. Still not pinched? ”

There was no way, Dong Xuebin had to follow him upstairs. At the end of the corridor, Xiaoping pointed him to the room and briefly told him how to massage. Anyway, he pinched his back for 40 minutes, the vegan kind, and then Xiaoping went downstairs. Dong Xuebin patted his head and didn't say anything. He walked over to knock on the door and heard a woman inside say please come in. He only stepped into the house and closed the door with his opposite hand.

On the bed is a middle-aged woman, about 37 or 8 years old, staring at a magazine.

Dong Xuebin said with no expression: “Is that the massage you ordered? ”

The woman blurted and looked at him on the side, "Push a little hard on your hand, don't be too light. ”

“Oh.” Dong Xuebin washed his hands in the bathroom before walking over and sitting on the bed.

The woman was wearing a white yukata with a slippery neck and nothing inside. She was in good shape, a little full-bodied, and she didn't have a particularly beautiful face. At least she had some lingering flavors. The fishtail pattern at the corner of her eyes added some ripe charm and attractiveness to her. Seeing a beautiful woman still fits, Dong Xuebin's disgust immediately faded, better than giving a massage to a sweaty old man.

As soon as his hand reached out, Dong Xuebin touched her shoulder through the yukata and pressed it up.

Hou Qiang stopped looking at impurities and threw them aside. "How long has the young man been in this business? ”

"'Not long,' said Dong Xuebin. ”

“… what's your name? ”

“Xie Hao. ”

“Well, good name.” Hou Xiao looked at him slightly.

Dong Xuebin didn't have much thought to gossip with her. He was still thinking about how to get access to the artefacts.

Hou suddenly said, "How's your boss?” Seeing him blinded, Hou Qiang said: “Or Mr. Wu? Someone else? ”

Dong Xuebin glanced at him, “I didn't see the boss, I knew this side belonged to Manager Ma. ”

Hou nodded and said nothing more.

Dong Xuebin became interested, “Sister, do you know our boss? ”

“Oh, I've seen it twice, never said anything.” Hou Shui enjoys closing his eyes, "what has Manager Ma been up to lately? ”

Dong Xuebin has pinched her back waist. “Manager Ma doesn't come here often. He only came to the bath center once for two days and three days. It may be the owner and other places where the business needs to be managed by him.” At the end of the day, Dong Xuebin set her up again, wondering where that Wu boss was, but nothing was gained.

Forty minutes passed.

Hou Qiang sat up from the bed and took care of the slightly messy yukata, laughing: “The young man has a good technique and is very comfortable. ”

“You're welcome. ”

“What time do you usually end up here?” Hou Qiang suddenly asked.

Dong Xuebin blinked, “There are still many people before 12: 00, maybe not much after a little. ”

Hou smiled at him and said, "Well, then I need to call you at night… what's your number? ”

“Khan, no. I'm just here on a temporary basis. I don't have enough men. ”

“Okay, I remember your name anyway, right, Xie Hao? Well, there's something I need to talk to you about.” Hou Xiang tipped him a hundred bucks, “he said. ”

Dong Xuebin Hu thought about it, call me after 1: 00? What am I supposed to do in the middle of the night?

After leaving the room, Dong Xuebin continued to work, went to the back of the workshop to wash the sheets and wash the towels, tired of not knowing what his last name was, waited until more than 8 pm, it was time to change shift, Dong Xuebin and Xiao Shi Khan went back to the dormitory and rested in bed. Dong Xuebin slept in the upper bunk, Xiaoshi lived in the lower bunk. According to the theory, Xiaoshi came longer than Dong Xuebin, and should be familiar with others. However, on the first day Dong Xuebin came, he found that other people in the dormitory preferred to talk to the new Dong Xuebin and did not really like to communicate with Xiaoshi.

Half an hour has passed.

An hour has passed.

Nobody's asleep, talking about women.

Dong Xuebin was naturally not at all interested, just wondering how to get closer to the upper level and to the artefacts. But he's been thinking about it for the past five days, and he hasn't come up with any good ideas. Alas, he thought it was too simple to think that he could get in, but now you don't even get anything of value. Do you want to go to the manager's office and take a chance? It's a little dangerous!

Early at 9: 00.

The dormitory door suddenly opened and Ping walked in, "Shizuku! Steve!”

Little Shi is asleep. He opens his eyes in confusion. "Brother Liu, what is it? ”

“Get dressed and come with me. Hurry, the horse manager is waiting to see you!” Xiao Pingtou urged.

Little Shi sat up confused, a little wary, and didn't understand what the manager was asking him to do. Seeing Xiao Pingtou take Xiao Shi away, Dong Xuebin was also stunned, his mind turned quickly, the rest of the dormitory's face was similar, he whispered what he was talking about.

“What did Manager Ma want with him? ”

“Yeah, a thief. You want to promote him? ”

“Thief?” Dong Xuebin exclaimed: “Has Xiao Xi been involved? ”

The young man in the bunk nodded, "Looks like he stole something in some southern province, and then came here. ”

No wonder people don't care about him. He's a thief. "'What's he stealing?" said Dong Xuebin. Wallet, cell phone? Or is it a slip lock? ”

The young man shook his head, “Specifically, I don't know. I think he stole some antiques at the time of the murder. ”

Dong Xuebin's eyes glistened and seemed to find something important.

About a few minutes later, Xiao Shi returned, one person came back, the rest of the dorm asked him what was going on, asked the horse manager what he was looking for, but Xiao Shi did not say a word silently, just shook his head, and then went into the nest. Normally, everyone's attitude toward Shi is not very good, so he doesn't have to be nice to others. Shortly afterwards, Steve crawled out of his nest and went to the bathroom.

Dong Xuebin looked at it and immediately followed it. “Wait, I'll go too. ”

Outside in the hallway, Dong Xuebin whispered, "What did you do? ”

Xiao Shi's relationship with Dong Xuebin still fits well. Thinking about it, he whispered to him, "Manager Ma showed me some antiques, let me give him an appraisal.” With a tone of voice, he shouted, “I've been in touch with ancient games before, the manager may think I understand this, but I don't even know those things, let alone appraise them, if I really can appraise them, what am I doing here? ”

Antique?

Identification?

Dong Xuebin was excited as soon as he heard it. He lowered his voice in an impatient manner: “What kind of antique game is that? ”

Xiao Shi shook his head, “There are bottle jars, there are others, I can't name them either. ”

Dong Xuebin took a breath, the warm blood has begun to boil. Xiaoshi's words and Manager Ma's series of actions almost led Dong Xuebin to find the answer. There are too many things revealed. Why did you ask Steve to identify the antiquities? Even if a thief has access to ancient games, it's not professional. He can pull out of the ancient games. One person is better than him. Perhaps only one explanation is that the stolen relics of the provincial museum are in their hands. They don't dare to show it to the experts. They are afraid to leak the sound, so they can find out about ancient games from their people.

Another piece of information is that this antique game was probably bought by the owner of the horse manager from the people who stole the museum, but didn't know if it was true or false. Maybe those people had prepared a fake replacement in advance. Liu Sheng Jinhuiyu may still be easier to identify, but other relics are not so easy to see. They may now need someone who understands the authenticity of the relics to make sure they are certain!

That's it!

That must be it!

Dong Xuebin took a deep breath, and he knew that his chance to enter that circle had come. Find a chance, you must find a chance to penetrate the enemy!

As he was about to go into the toilet, Dong Xuebin suddenly jumped at the corner of his eyes. He saw Xiao Ping head coming out of the inside.

Dong Xuebin reacted quickly. Pretending not to see him, he immediately said to Xiao Shi: “Actually, I used to be an ancient game maker. ”

"Really?" said Little Skippy.

“Well, it's a technology passed down by my parents.” Dong Xuebin Dao.

Xiao Pingtou looked at Dong Xuebin not far away, “Xie Hao. ”

Dong Xuebin pretended to see him and walked up quickly, "Brother Liu. ”

Ping looked at him uncertainly and said, "Have you ever had an ancient game? ”

“No, no, bullshit.” Dong Xuebin smiled. In order not to make things seem too sudden, he didn't admit it first.

Little Flat Eyed, “You come with me! ”

In an office.

Xiao Pingtou entered the house with Dong Xuebin, and sat inside with Manager Ma Wentaoma and several suit dahans.

I saw them come in, Marvin Tao frowned, "Can I help you? ”

Xiao Pingtou hurried: “Manager Ma, this man has heard of ancient games. ”

“Oh?” Ma Wentao glanced at Dong Xuebin, “Really? ”

Dong Xuebin waved his hand bitterly: “No, I was just saying that. ”

Little flat face, “You tell me, you tell me! I'm not sending you to the police station! What are you afraid of? ”

Dong Xuebin said nothing.

At first glance, Ma Wentao looked softly: “I remember your last name Xie, right? Xiao Xie, I just bought a few things the other day. If you can help me identify them, you won't have to be a grocery in the future. I'll just mention you as a lobby manager, or anything else you want, I can satisfy you, too. It's a good thing, don't be afraid, okay? ”

Dong Xuebin hesitated and nodded.

Ma Wentao said, “Now tell me, do you know how to play ancient games? ”

After repeated questioning, Dong Xuebin “finally” told the truth and smiled bitterly: “It was a long time ago. I followed several relatives of our family to forge a fake artifact and made it for take-out. Later, the police found me, so I went to Baog's workshop in Beihe Province. ”

Ma Wentao now understands why he didn't admit that he was afraid of being caught by the police. “So you've studied ancient games? ”

Dong Xuebin scratched his head, "Just a little bit. ”

As soon as Ma Wentao thought about it, he let Ping go. He was the only person in the house who looked like a few bodyguards. “Xie, I have some antiques here. Take a look.” When he gave an eye to a man in a suit next to him, he grabbed a few boxes from the cabinet and placed them on his desk. Marvin Tao soothed: “Relax, if you can say this to me, you will follow me in the future, the riches and the riches will not be less than yours. ”

The black man flipped open the box to the far left.

At first glance, Dong Xuebin was a little disappointed, because this item was not a stolen relic of the museum. After thinking about it, Ma Wentao must not dare to show the light, let alone show it to an outsider easily. That's why he first used a few antique games to test it. If Dong Xuebin can identify and prove that he has this ability, he will probably only have access to the rest of the relics. To understand this, Dong Xuebin's spirit also mentioned twelve points. He walked up and down a few steps and weighed this thing up and down.

It's a piece of pottery. It's a piece of shit. It looks old.

However, Dong Xuebin, who has come into contact with antique games, is naturally clear, nothing on the surface can be explained, there is a method called old.

When they thought about testing themselves with something, they probably wouldn't take the real product, Dong Xuebin quickly conceived the language and guessed indiscriminately: “This thing is a fake, it looks very old, but it is obviously man-made. Look here, here, the marks are too obvious. ”

Marvin Tao frowned and asked to open the next box.

There is a string of sandalwood like bracelets with plenty of bread pulp that seems to have been handled for a long time.

Dong Xuebin thought about it. It should not be fake to be played with like this. Probably something on Marvin Tao's body, so he said: “This is sandalwood, the colour is very positive, it must be true. ”

Ma Wentao asked someone to open the last box again.

A copper coin revealed traces of rust on it, engraved with the words "to the true treasure”.

Dong Xuebin thought that copper coin counterfeiting was not easy, because the cost was relatively high. At this point, he pretended to take it and look at it. He said: "This is a genuine product, the age should be Ming Dynasty, there is not much hereditary, and the value is very high.” After that, Dong Xuebin didn't know how many of them were right. He looked at Ma Wentao.

What and what! Marvin Tao's tender face has changed and he leaves his mouth impatiently, “Okay, you go home. ”

Dong Xuebin - uh, "Which one of us is wrong? ”

The big man next to him snorted: “None of them are right! You call that antique? ”

"'That's impossible,' said Dong Xuebin. ”

Before the items were brought, Ma Wentao had already found the antique game appraisal industry to appraise them. He knew that these things were true and false. Of course, there was a bottom line in his heart. The big man saw Dong Xuebin or not, and pushed him out the door. Dong Xuebin didn't want to give up such a good opportunity and asked which one of them was wrong.

The big man whispered, “Is that all you have to know to fake? The pottery is an authentic product of the stone age. It is very old and of high historical value, but it is not worth anything. The sandalwood bracelet is a counterfeit. The pulp is all on the back. In fact, it is a kind of sandalwood like sandalwood, it is worthless, and the copper coin, the words are distorted. It is a batch of counterfeit ancient coins, and the authentic product is not what you call the Ming Dynasty, it is Yuan Dynasty! Come on, let's go! Waste of time!” He was the one who went to the antiquity store with the stuff, and he knew it well.

Dong Xuebin screamed. Shit, it's all wrong? He didn't think he was that bad!

There's still a chance!

back two minutes!!

…… changed in front of me!

“Xiao Xie, I have some antiques here. Take a look. ”

Ma Wentao asked someone to take something out.

Time is back!!

“Don't be nervous, as long as you can say this to me, you will follow me in the future. Glorious riches are not without you.” Ma Wentao looked at him quietly and looked forward to it.

Dong Xuebin exhaled, looked at the pottery, and reached over and touched it. “Normally, we fake old things, how can we not do this level? This is the mark on the years, can not be done. I think it should be something from the stone age. However, although the historical value of such things is high for a long time, the economic value is small, and it is not worth much money. ”

Ma Wentao glanced slightly, "Show him the next one! ”

The sandalwood bracelet was taken out.

Dong Xuebin touched it and said, "The pulp is made after. This method is often used in our place to make it look old. If it is true sandalwood, very few people will have to do it like this. This wood must be fake and worthless. ”

Marvin Tao moved, “Next. ”

Dong Xuebin muttered: “Is it a copper coin? However, the rust marks were taken from other bronze scrapers. I used this technique when I was playing ancient games, and the words were crooked, not the look of" to Zhengzhibao "from the Zhengyuan Dynasty. ”

All three are over.

A few big men looked at each other in surprise.

Marvin Tao slapped the table, “Okay, okay, okay!” Satisfaction in the eyes.
