The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

Chapter 21: To kill for 10,000

   On December 3, the Shanghai Railway Station in the cold wind continued to be crowded with people. Two men were on the platform, watching a train enter the platform.

   One of them is at least 1.85 meters tall and about 28 years old. Standing like a javelin, he is very conspicuous on the platform: this person is not only tall, but his eyes seem to be unfeeling and extremely cold! Seeing that makes people panic, even the staff at the station dare not look at him more!

   The other is much more normal, about 1.75 meters tall and about 30 years old.

   The elderly is Zhang Nan’s brother-in-law. After receiving a call from Zhang Nan a few days ago, he asked for leave and borrowed the unit’s jeep to pick him up.

   As it turned out, because he came to receive the coal purchase from the Material Bureau, Comrade Director, after learning about it, swiped a big pen: tolerance.

   In the soft sleeper, I saw my brother-in-law getting off the car with a big bag and a small bag, while talking and laughing with the two foreigners who got off the car together, Xiang Weirong didn't greet him.

   "Goodbye, John, Jack." Saying goodbye to the two Yankees in the same box, Zhang Nan noticed the brother-in-law in the crowd.

   "Brother-in-law, why did you go to the platform directly?"

   "Platform ticket."

   As he took the big box in Zhang Nan's hand, another person came up directly to unload the mountaineering bag carried by Zhang Nan.

   "Brother Guan!" Seeing who it was, Zhang Nan looked surprised. This man was an old subordinate brought out by the brother-in-law's army, "Why are you here?"

   Guan Xingquan, a native of Jiaojiang, Jiangnan Province, an old man of brother-in-law. After the brother-in-law changed jobs, every time this person went home to visit relatives, he would stay at his brother-in-law's house for a few days and also taught Zhang Nan a few days of fist.

   And his mother was born in Yanxian, and she married to Jiaojiang when she was in her twenties, and her family was less than 5 miles away from her brother-in-law's hometown!

   Sometimes this world is so small! Therefore, Guan Xingquan can also speak the Yanxian dialect, which is not authentic.

   According to reason, he should still be serving in the army, so Zhang Nan was a little surprised.

   "I'll talk about it later, this is not the place to talk."

   Zhang Nan was not polite, and gave the mountaineering bag to Guan Xingquan. Seeing that he picked it up casually with one hand, he was secretly speaking in his heart!

   In fact, although Guan Xingquan is relaxed, he was taken aback by the weight when he carried his hiking bag: "At least more than 100 catties!"

   As soon as he got into the jeep in the parking lot, Guan Xingquan got into the cab, and Zhang Nan and his brother-in-law got into the back seat.

   "A-Nan, Xingquan has recovered, because of an accident. This time you called and said that there was a lot of stuff, and you still need a reliable hand to do something, I will let Xingquan come over."

   "Oh." I didn't ask what went wrong, no need to ask more; as for the reliable manpower needed next, this brother Guan deserves absolute trust!

   Zhang Nan trusts her sister-in-law, and knows that if she wants to say who her brother-in-law trusts most, then her sister is ranked first, and she can only be counted as third. This Guan Xingquan is definitely the second child!

   Brother-in-law is not only Guan Xingquan’s old squad leader and half a small fellow, but also saved his life on the battlefield abroad. That is a friendship of steel established in blood and fire! And Zhang Nan knew that Guan Xingquan would remember that life-saving grace decades later.

   And the father of Guan Xingquan died early, and there was only one old woman in the family, not even a close relative. Two years ago, he was on a mission on the southwest border. The old mother at home broke her leg. The hospital where his brother-in-law and sister ran away. Later, he took the person to his family in Yanxian County to raise him for half a year.

   This person values ​​feelings, has a strict mouth, and despises money, so reliable!

   "Brother Guan, don't rush to the guest house, go to Kuaiji Road, I'm going to buy something." Guan Xingquan said while driving.

"Um."

   Looking at a Shanghai-listed city map on the car, Guan Xingquan didn't say much.

   "Didn't you say you want to do business near Kuaiji Road? Just now?" Xiang Weirong frowned.

   "No, I have to go there to collect some national food stamps, old renminbi and silver dollars. I agreed with the ticket seller last time. It is not convenient to do big things tonight or tomorrow."

   was talking about taking out a small shoulder bag from the mountaineering bag, and taking out two dozen "Great Unity" from the inside and stuffing it into the inner pocket of the coat. There are still 10 bundles in the bag!

   "Why are there so many?" Brother-in-law asked him.

   "The rebate given by the coal mine was 2,000 yuan for 5000 tons at the beginning, and I gave two more points for the last 10,000 tons. I gave it a little more. It was fourteen thousand in total, which has already been spent."

   I’m all in the car, so I don’t need to hide it.

"The director gave you 20 points of autonomy, and only half of it was used. It's okay." Xiang Weirong knows the tricks in it. These buyers are more courageous than the other, but it is counted as many years as the brother-in-law encountered this time. It's hard to come by, fishing is a bit ruthless.

   After thinking about it again, he asked, "Are the heads and tails clean?"

   A rebate of more than 10,000 yuan, if you wear it and help someone trace it, it is enough to make Zhang Nan sentenced to more than ten years!

   "It should be no problem, there are also veterans over there, there should be no account, and they are not stupid."

  At this time, Guan Xingquan, who had always spoken like a boring melon, was shocked by Zhang Nan: "Squad leader, do you want me to go to the coal mine to deal with it in a few days?"

   "Don't Guan! Next year there will be 100,000 tons. I still want to make a fortune by this!"

   "When I didn't say it." A muffled voice came from the front.

   "Let’s talk about it next year."

   Brother-in-law said this to Guan Xingquan, and Zhang Nan didn't want to interrupt. "What's this?! I took advantage of it, so I shouted and screamed for murder. Are you committing a crime?"

   One is going to solve the beginning and the end once and for all, and the other shows that in the next year, the tone is calm and calm, and Zhang Nan feels that this is not the harmonious society where he is at all.

   "Is this still my brother-in-law?"

   This brother Guan is a ruthless person, so I won’t say anything in the army: I remember that he should have been demobilized in the late 1980s, and he quit the job he was scheduled to do afterwards, and ran into a smuggling business. He was very wild!

However, he suddenly disappeared in the mid-90s, and it was not until 2010 that Zhang Nan saw him again at his brother-in-law’s house. At that time, Guan Xingquan gave him a limited edition Omega diamond-encrusted gold watch worth more than 400,000 yuan-originally he went to Southeast Asia to make it. "Big business" went, it was a runaway at first.

   "Your money was brought to you. To be honest, when did you save so much? It's still so good."

   Zhang Nan sealed the 30,000 yuan in a plastic bag, put it in charcoal as a desiccant, and buried it under the floor tiles of the living room, and above it was the Zhang Baxian table.

   Why don’t you deposit it in the bank? He has already deposited 20,000 yuan in the bank, so as not to shock the world.

   "Sister, don’t you know?"

   "What do you mean?" Xiang Weirong glanced at his younger brother-in-law, "I didn't tell her, so I don't worry about it. I'm not afraid of moldy when I bury it!"

Xiang Weirong didn’t stare at the source of the money, but Zhang Nan still planned to say half-truth: “Last year, he bought an old house and bought a wooden Buddha statue weighing 40 or 50 kilograms for 5 yuan. UU Reading www.uukanshu .com As a result, I found that the back of the Buddha statue seemed to have been moved before. I felt strange to pry and finally took out 3 large yellow croakers. I went to the bank and sold two, totaling more than 50,000, and I still had one reluctant to sell.

   "Don't sell it, keep it, this thing is the family property."

   "Keep it for Jianan, and use it as a daughter-in-law, hehe!"

   "What kind of yellow croaker does a boy want? It's not about marrying a daughter and pressing the bottom of the box." The brother-in-law is not jealous: he knows what a "large yellow croaker" is, just twelve gold bars, equivalent to today's weight is 312.5 grams.

Without worrying about this issue, Xiang Weirong didn’t want to ask too much. Everyone had a little secret. Zhang Nan was too lazy to explain: The third item of his "codebook" was the Buddha statue, but he didn’t buy it, but himself. After riding a bicycle for more than an hour, I moved to an abandoned temple in the neighboring county. Otherwise, waiting for the temple to be rebuilt in a few years, the secret will be discovered.

   And not three, but six, two styles of "big yellow croaker"! Zhang Nan sold 4 common gold bars in various banks in one breath (only banks were able to trade gold in the mid-1980s.) Twelve gold bars minted by the Shanghai Central Mint before liberation. This would cost more than 80 gold, if it weren’t for the purpose of keeping one. Nianxiang, plus the remaining two rare old European gold bars, he has sold them all long ago!

The gold bars minted at the Central Mint on the Bund in Shanghai before liberation may be valuable 30 years later, but they are not as real as they are sold now: the price of gold has increased three or four times in a few decades, and even if the collection value is added, it is not as good as cash .

   Zhang Nan didn't use the money to deposit in the bank to earn interest. He changed 50,000 yuan in one breath for the two yuan "turner"! It will be worth more than half a billion in the future!
