Shengshibaojian

As the sun set and night fell, Shen Qiu's first day at work was full of rewards. In addition to the 22 commission for the red sandalwood frame, he also found an interesting ancient book "The Secret History of the Heavenly Master" in Xuanbaozhai.

Originally, Shen Qiu thought it was a little pornographic book written by some low-level literati, but he accidentally saw Wang Qianshi's name on the cover. After flipping through the book, he realized that it was a book written around Wang Qianshi. It is almost similar to the autobiography of characters in modern society. The specific content is to write the life of Wang Qianshi, the master of appreciating treasures.

The ancient books were picked up from a small stall by Cao Donglai before, and he threw them in a corner of the shop probably because they were not popular in unofficial history.

Shen Qiu was very interested in Wang Qianshi's story, greeted Xie Jingwen and brought the ancient books out of the store.

On the way home from get off work, Shen Qiu stopped by and bought a few roujiamo and steamed buns, and was going to read Wang Qianshi's autobiography in an all-round way tonight.

It was close to seven o'clock in the evening when he arrived at the dormitory. Shen Qiu took out the key and suddenly smelled a smell of smoke, which seemed to be coming from his own dormitory. When he opened the door, he saw several burly men in the room. There is a strong smell of cigars and cigarettes in it.

"Snapped!"

The lights came back on, revealing the faces of Lord Pao's group, including a few younger brothers, a total of five people.

Master Pao was still dressed in a colorful shirt, holding a silver stick in his hand and a thick cigar in his mouth, he took the initiative to greet Shen Qiu.

"Long time no see, Young Master Shen!"

When Shen Qiu saw Lord Pao, he had a solid idea in his mind, and nine out of ten it was because of the 100 million debt: "Master Pao! You are a little too hasty, don't you have one more day? I have already You have collected enough money, come over tomorrow night to get the money!"

Cannon master puffed on his cigar: "Master Shen! I heard that your kid picked up a big leak on North Street today, so I know you are not short of money now!"

"Master Cannon! You play your cards according to the routine! If you want debts in advance, at least say hello first!"

Master Pao leaned in front of Shen Qiu with a cigar in his mouth and a silver ruler in his hand: "Master Shen, don't panic! Logically speaking, I shouldn't have come to see you today, and Boss Xie also specifically asked me to say hello! But the emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry." Someone is more anxious than I am! The so-called cannibalism is short-handed and short-handed! Let’s take a formality later, and you will pretend to scream twice while the lights are dark! The worse the screaming, the better! Do you understand what I mean?"

As soon as Master Pao said this, Shen Qiu understood in his heart: "Master Pao, this matter must have something to do with Zhao Chunlei!"

Master Pao nodded understandingly: "Brother, don't inquire so much. Today you just scream twice! Let's deal with it casually!"

Master Pao called his subordinates to prepare to do something, but Shen Qiu's eyes fell on the silver stick in his hand.

"Master Cannon! This is the stick you are holding, it must have been given to you by Zhao Chunlei!"

Master Pao didn't shy away from it, and played with the stick twice: "Indeed! Young Master Shen, your eyes are really not ordinary, and I won't play around with you anymore. The main reason is that I really don't care about this thing. I have been around for so many years. , I’ve always wanted to find someone to take advantage of! Zhao Chunlei’s thing really feels good in the hand, and it’s very face-saving to hold it in your hand! Otherwise, my cannon master wouldn’t be interested in doing such a dirty thing!”

Shen Qiu smiled, he had no problem with Master Pao, he looked rough and forthright, this kind of person was straightforward but easy to get along with, unlike Zhao Chunlei who stabbed a knife in the back and did all the despicable and shameless things.

"Master Cannon! Since you take care of my little brother so much, I won't play around with you. Do you know what this thing is in your hand?" Shen Qiu had seen this stick in Zhao Chunlei's hand before, and Zhao Chunlei liked it very much at that time. Stick, I hold it in my hand and play with it all day long, and I can't put it down every day and cherish it very much.

In the past, he was a senior old turtle so naturally he didn't know the origin of this silver stick, but now he has Wang Qianshi's memory of appraising treasures, Shen Qiu recognized the real body of this thing immediately after just one glance.

"This is a ruler! It's a ruler specially made by the royal family!" Master Pao held up the stick and showed off: "The rulers used by Mr. Private School to teach students in the past, the carving workmanship is good, the key is that this thing feels good in the hand. The thief is easy!"

puff!

Shen Qiu couldn't help laughing: "Master Pao, this is what Zhao Chunlei told you, but it's actually not a ruler at all!"

Shen Qiu took the silver stick in his hand and weighed it: "First of all, the weight of this stick is about seven or eight catties. Which child's delicate skin and tender flesh can withstand this kind of stick? A normal ruler is basically It has a flat shape, the kind that can be held gently in the palm of your hand, how can there be such a round and thick stick!"

Cannon master was confused by what he said: "Zhao Chunlei swears that this is the treasure of a high-ranking official! What is it if it is not a ruler? Shen Qiu, do you think this thing is worth money? Zhao Chunlei also said that it can be sold for 20 yuan !"

"Master Cannon, I'll let you know whether it's worth the money or not. I'll tell you what this thing is for!"

Shen Qiu held the silver stick in his hand and turned it clockwise twice.

Master Pao didn't react for a while, but a younger brother next to him slapped his head and responded: "It's for cleaning the toilet! This is for cleaning the toilet!"

Master Pao rolled his eyes at the younger brother: "Shut up! What nonsense!"

Shen Qiu said loudly: "In ancient times, there was no such thing as a toilet. In ancient times, people who went to the toilet were collectively called Chugong. This kind of stick was called Chugong stick in the homes of high-ranking officials and nobles, but in the mouths of ordinary people at that time, it was called "chugong stick". stick!"

"Shit stirrer?" Pao Ye's face turned livid instantly, he knew what this shit stirrer was for even if he didn't know anything about antiques: "Shen Qiu! Don't you fool me, kid? You say it's a shit stirrer? Don't Damn nonsense!"

"A gong stick is a shit stick in the final analysis. The front end of the stick is only a ten-centimeter section. Because of years of dredging, it will show a dark and yellow change. The slightly sharp tip is not for hitting the palm, but for It is used to unclog the feces!"

"Impossible, Young Master Shen! Look at the lines on this bastard's body, look at the exquisite lines and workmanship! It's clearly something that belonged to the rich in the past!"

Shen Qiu didn't deny this either: "That's right, the things of the dignitaries, the rich people use the sticks to untangle them!"

"what……"

This statement made Lord Pao feel as if he had been struck by lightning. He held up his stick in disbelief, and he saw the details of what Shen Qiu said. Foul smell.

Dare to say that for so many days he has been holding a shit stick to show off in the street, and he doesn't know how many people's filth has been stained on this stick, and he still shows it off everywhere like a treasure!If this gets out, people won't laugh it off!

Shen Qiu couldn't hold back his smile, Zhao Chunlei had made a mistake in his wishful thinking this time.

But it's no wonder Zhao Chunlei, after all, this gong stick has a history of hundreds of years, and few people have seen it until now. In addition, this gong stick is indeed different from the usual shit-stirring stick. , even if it is placed in the antique street, few people can recognize it.

"Shen Qiu! Tell me! How much is this thing worth?" Pao Ye was so angry that the cigar in his mouth was trembling, but he still asked unwillingly.

"Master Cannon! This kind of stuff is nothing but Xiaobai who can't figure it out. Whoever has nothing to do with it will play with a shit stick in his hand all day long. Not to mention the bad luck, he will panic! People who know how to do it can't hide in time!"

"Grass! Damn Zhao Chunlei! Damn you dare to play me! Thanks to me, I still treat him as a friend! You actually got a shit stick to fool me! Zhao Chunlei, I will never stop with you!"

Master Pao was so angry that he wanted to go to Zhao Chunlei to settle accounts: "Master Shen! Brother, I'm sorry for today's matter! Don't say anything about it! Don't worry about money, what? When I have money, I will pay it back! I will go to Zhao Chunlei to settle the score now! Today I must use this shit stick to teach him a lesson!"

"Wait! Gunner!"

The moment Master Pao turned around to leave, Shen Qiu suddenly noticed a special detail, he saw a special thing hanging around Master Pao's neck!A round dark green Guanyin statue.

"Master Pao, don't go. Let's put aside the shit-stirring thing. I have made a very important discovery. Where did this Guanyin statue on your neck come from?"
