Chapter 891 Finding the Original Stone

Chapter 891 Finding the Original Stone
Bai Meixi collected several rough stones and prepared to find experts to identify them. The most suitable candidate was naturally A Li. She took advantage of the opportunity to exchange things in Atu Town to ask A Li about the situation and the people nearby. Is anyone selling rough minerals?

"Rough stones? We do have people selling them here, but they are all lies. They say that those stones contain suet jade and white jade. In fact, they are all a pile of useless quartz stones, used to build houses. The pigsty is okay, but you can’t change it for money at all.”

When Ali heard Bai Meixi ask about the original stone, he repeatedly reminded her to be careful. There are bad people in Atu Town. Some of them specialize in deceiving outsiders like her. They throw things that the locals don't want on the ground and weave a lie. Sold elsewhere.

Some people have been deceived before and came back to find someone, but they all got nothing. Moreover, gambling on stones is a consensual thing. Even if you buy the wrong thing, no one is willing to stand up and seek justice.

"I know. I saw someone selling rough stones two days ago, and I asked about it because I was curious."

Bai Meixi quickly distanced herself from the matter, fearing that Ali would find out the clues. The matter of those tomb robbers was too sensitive, and she would be implicated if she was not careful.

"Sister, there has been a lot of chaos here recently. You must be careful when buying things, especially those who say they are guaranteed to make money. They are all scammers. If it were so easy to make money, they wouldn't sell it to you."

Ali gave Bai Meixi a lesson in anti-fraud, and he refused to give up until he was reprimanded by his father.

"You have the nerve to accuse others. In the past two years, you heard that someone nearby collected antiques and made money. You even took your second uncle's children there to collect a bunch of bottles and cans, but in the end, all the money was defrauded. Your second uncle’s debt hasn’t been paid off yet.”

Ali's father grabbed his ears and told him not to harm others. With his little professional skills, he could deceive laymen, but he was still far from being a professional antique appraiser.

Fortunately, the people who were deceived last time were all relatives of his family. If it were other people in the town, it would be difficult for his family to live in the town.

"Dad, I was young and ignorant at that time. Now I am afraid that others will be deceived like me, so I have to remind you repeatedly."

Ah Li felt a little unfair. At that time, he was just in his first year of college. When he saw that the antique styles described by his teacher were very similar to those he saw in his hometown, he revealed the news to others and wanted to buy some antiques together. If you have the opportunity, you can make a lot of money by selling it in Puhai.

A few days later, someone really came to the door with something. He looked at it for a long time to make sure it was genuine. But once it was delivered to Puhai, he discovered that it was a counterfeit. Not only was it the wrong year, but it was also the wrong style. .

His tutor also criticized him. He felt that his intention to resell antiques was the greatest humiliation to the archeology profession. If it weren't for the fact that he had been defrauded of all his money, his tutor would definitely give him a punishment. .

"So how are your skills now? You've already studied as a graduate student. It's time to improve."

Bai Meixi really needs Ali's antique appraisal skills. Her ability in this area is limited. What she can accept is a few categories that she knows about in the past. There are many that she can't see. She doesn't dare to bid easily, which may cause a lot of delays. Business.

"Of course I am much more diligent now, but I don't dare to do this kind of thing anymore. My dad bought several camels at home to help me pay off the money. If I make another mistake, not only will my degree be lost, but our family will also have to pay for it." The compensation will cost you everything."

Ali shook his head. The current policy was tighter than before. If someone dared to resell antiques again, not only would all the items be confiscated, but they might also be imprisoned. He would never do such a risky thing again.Bai Meixi felt a little disappointed, but Ali was familiar with the local terrain and knowledgeable about the profession. Even if he couldn't be her helper, she could still be her teacher and teach her more about antique appraisal.

"Ali, how are you doing recently? Are you still working on that research project?"

Bai Meixi discovered that Ali had been staying in the small town of Atu recently and had no intention of going into the desert again. He felt that his research project might not be going well.

"How can we continue with that project? Our main job now is to help our superiors solve crimes. If we want to go to the desert to find ancient tombs, we have to find the previous antiques first. And now some people suspect that the tomb robbers are It is very likely that there are people majoring in archeology, and it may also be the case among teachers and students like us, that no one dares to mention going into the desert now."

Ali's face turned pale when he mentioned this matter. Now the expedition team is in a dilemma. It can neither continue to carry out research projects nor return to school. It can do nothing but wait for the results of the investigation.

Fortunately, he is a local and can go back home to help, but others are in dire straits. They stay in a place they are unfamiliar with and have to be investigated every day. Several people are already sick and cannot be sent to big hospitals for fear of them. Will take this opportunity to sell the stolen goods.

"So are there any clues in the investigation? Can those people be caught?" Bai Meixi thought of the tomb robbers that night. Besides the boss, there seemed to be others who had escaped. They might have come out to sell the stolen goods.

"Where are there any clues? This desert is so big. If they don't take out food, where can we find them?"

A Li kept sighing when he talked about this incident, feeling that he deserved to be unlucky. He was obviously going to graduate in one year, but he happened to be involved in this kind of thing. If there is a stain on his body, it will be difficult to assign good moves in the future.

"You are still chatting and not going to milk the camels. I told you at the beginning that you would accept the assigned job as soon as you graduate from college. It's better for you. You have to go to a graduate school. Now you are stupid. You will make three years less money. Maybe the jobs I’ll be assigned in the future won’t be as good as before.”

Ali's parents were very dissatisfied and kept complaining to him. Seeing that Bai Meixi could not find any clues, she had no choice but to give up.

She took out two wild camels from the space and planned to take them to the market to exchange for money and prepare some things for Cheng Haiyi, but she met a very familiar person here.

Bai Meixi didn't see clearly the appearance of the tomb robber gang that day, but only saw the general outline. But this man was so strange. He held a thick turban and looked furtively at the people around him. He looked at the people around him several times. Use the wild camels in Bai Meixi as cover to talk things over with the others.

Bai Meixi saw some scratches on the back of this man's hands, and those marks looked like they were caused by a snow leopard.

She concluded that this man was the one caught in the tomb robbery gang, and finally couldn't stand it anymore when she saw him in the desert.
