Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 503 A mistake
The three people went into a small alley. The vendor took out a box from somewhere and opened it. Inside were three exquisite pieces of porcelain. To an expert at first glance, they looked like the real things, with bright colors, beautiful lines, and a hint of simple and elegant charm.

Both of them were stunned. He Yuzhu thought it must be authentic. If Xu Damao didn't know it in advance, he would also think it must be genuine and a rare treasure.

He Yuzhu said impatiently: "I want all three. Name your price."

Xu Damao got anxious when he heard this. If He Yuzhu bought it, his performance for the whole day would be in vain. He quickly said, "I was the one who contacted this buddy first. If you want to sell it, sell it to me first."

"Why? Brother, I've told you, whoever offers the highest price gets it. Why should you get it first?" He Yuzhu also said.

The vendor was so happy. The boss had told him that he could sell these three pieces for 30,000 yuan. He said directly, "Please wait a moment, sir. Let me tell you, these are for imperial use. They are very expensive."

He Yuzhu said, "Little brother, just tell me how much it costs. Sichuan Flavor Restaurant, you know, is a restaurant owned by my brother. You know how capable I am."

After hearing this, the vendor realized that this was indeed a wealthy fool, so he said directly: "Fifty thousand, one price, take all three, how about that?"

He Yuzhu quickly said, "Okay, fifty thousand. Come on, follow me to get the money." As he said that, he wanted to pull the vendor away.

Xu Damao jumped up and said, "I'll give you 60,000. How about selling it to me? I'll pay the highest price."

He Yuzhu had been holding onto the vendor and said directly, "Why? In this way, no matter how much money he pays, I'll get 5,000 more."

Xu Damao's face turned green, and he was about to speak when the peddler's cell phone rang. The peddler picked up the box and ran to the side to answer the call.

He Yuzhu and Xu Damao disliked each other and looked at each other fiercely. After a while, the vendor came back and said to them, "How about this, my eldest brother has a few more items like this one. You two can come with me, and then you can choose your own."

When He Yuzhu and Xu Damao heard this, they were both stunned. He Yuzhu was thinking, "What else? Do I have enough money?", while Xu Damao was delighted, thinking that the task could be completed in one day. They both nodded quickly, and the vendor took them for a walk.

After wandering around, they finally came to the gate of a courtyard. The peddler looked left and right and knocked on the door, two long knocks and one short. The knocks were heard inside and someone opened the door. The peddler took the two people in. They didn't know where the two people were now. They had been to this area before, but they were a little confused by the peddler wandering around the alleys.

They were confused, but the police behind them were clear-headed. The yard was actually in the alley where the hawker initially took them. The place where they were standing was exactly the back wall of the yard. No wonder they could never find their lair. They were too cunning.

As soon as He Yuzhu and Xu Damao entered, they knew that this was a courtyard. The vendor took them directly to the main room, where three people were sitting, one old and two young. The old man smiled and said, "So you are distinguished guests. I heard that you want to buy our porcelain. They are all left by our ancestors. You are in for a treat."

"Second son, go pour tea for the guests. Third son, go take out the things that are most valuable in our house and let the two of you take a look at them." The old man ordered.

If Yan Jiecheng was there at this time, he would be able to recognize at a glance that the second guy was the middleman, and the third guy was the prodigal son who sold his goods.

Yan Jiefang, who was outside, took the members of the special task force to a place to hold a small meeting, at which they arranged the arrest mission. Yan Jiefang no longer hated He Yuzhu. If He Yuzhu had not interfered, Xu Damao would probably have had to come a few more times before they could find their lair. Unexpectedly, the appearance of He Yuzhu gave them an unexpected surprise, and they found it on the same day.

At this time, the two enemies were still pretending to look at the porcelain. The old man was ready to rip off two suckers at once, so he took out all the remaining porcelain at once. He Yuzhu was dumbfounded. There were so many. Three pieces were 50,000, so there must be more than twenty pieces.

After the two of them finished looking at it, Xu Damao was still relatively calm and said, "Grandpa, just name a price. As long as the price is right, I will never bargain."

The old man looked at Xu Damao, nodded, and turned to look at He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu was determined not to lose the battle, and said stubbornly: "You name your price, I won't offer less than him." The old man smiled and said: "It is said that harmony brings wealth. Here, including Xiao Si's three pieces, there are a total of 24 pieces. I think each of you has 12 pieces. No one should take more, and no one should take less. How about a flat price of 150,000, I will give you a discount."

As soon as he heard the price, He Yuzhu started to have some thoughts in his mind. He could afford such a large amount of money, but he had to go through He Yumei, so he was a little hesitant.

Xu Damao knew what was going on, so he said directly, "Okay, 150,000. You can find someone to go with me to get the money. I'll get the money back and then come back to pick up the goods. Is that ok?"

The old man nodded when he heard this, knowing that Xu Damao was trying to dispel his concerns and asked him to send someone to follow him. At this time, He Yuzhu gritted his teeth and said, "It's fine with me too, old man. You should send someone to go with me, too."

The old man was smiling happily, and told his second and third sons to follow one of them to get the money. The two men were also very happy as this was the last ticket, and then they flew away.

Just as the four men opened the gate of the yard, a group of police officers rushed in from the sky. The people inside were handcuffed before they could react. The last people to come in were Yan Jiefang and his two deputies.

He Yuzhu was stunned because the group ignored him and Xu Damao. Xu Damao complained directly, "Jiefang, look how He Yuzhu almost ruined the matter. How do you punish him?"

Yan Jiefang looked at He Yuzhu, feeling really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. You said you shouldn't punish him, but this guy almost ruined Xu Damao's mission just to get out of spite. You said you should punish him, but He Yuzhu's disruption made the case much simpler.

Yan Jiekuang looked at He Yuzhu and said, "Why, do you really think these are real? They are all high-quality imitations. You want to buy them for 150,000 yuan? If you buy them, your sister-in-law will divorce you. Do you believe it? Okay, go back."

He Yuzhu was sweating coldly at this time. It turned out that these people were all liars. Xu Damao's task was just to fish. He almost got into big trouble. He didn't say anything, lowered his head, and slipped away quickly.

Xu Damao had done something great this time, and he was feeling very proud of himself. When he turned around and found that He Yuzhu was missing, he ran to Yan Jiefang and said, "Jiefang, He Yuzhu ran away, hurry up and catch him back."

Yan Jiefang chuckled and said, "Brother Damao, that's it, if it weren't for Brother Zhuzi, this matter would have been delayed for who knows how long. Although it was wrong for him to mess up the situation, it was a blessing in disguise." Upon hearing this, Xu Damao also smiled and didn't mention it anymore.

When the Yan family heard this, they all burst into laughter. Yan Bugui said, "You said they are just funny. How can they be so childish at such an old age?"

Yan Jiekuang said: "They are enemies now. Just wait and see. These two will definitely not stop fighting. I guess they are just starting to compete with each other now."

Yan Jiefang nodded. He fully agreed with the third brother's words. The Public Security Bureau also awarded Xu Damao a banner. It was said that this year's Good Citizen Award in this area would be given to Xu Damao if nothing went wrong. If He Yuzhu heard this, he would definitely not remain indifferent.

The two brothers drank with their father, and then Yan Jiekuang went to the backyard to pick up the children and took them home.

When he got home, he put his daughter in the stroller and asked Xixi to look after her while he had to go cook. Although he had almost finished eating, the other children had not yet had their dinner.

This meal was mostly vegetables, with only two meat dishes, one was braised pork with potatoes, and the other was Mu Shu pork. As long as the children ate the food made by Yan Jiekuang, they were silent and ate with big mouthfuls.

Yan Jiekuang took Xiao Jin's bowl and filled it with a lot of meat and bones. He wanted to train Xiao Jin's teeth by letting it chew on them for fun. When Xiao Jin saw the meat and bones, he forgot everything else and called out to Yan Jiekuang, then dived into his bowl of food, causing Nannan to point at him and giggle. Yan Jiekuang sat next to the stroller, holding a bowl of porridge and feeding Nannan mouthful by mouthful.

Not long after, Ji Lian came back. When she got home, she complained that she was hungry. She served herself some rice and then started to fight with the children for the food.
