Chapter 211 There is something in the words
At this time Miss Zhou should be open for business.

Everyone found Ms. Zhou's shop, and Ms. Zhou had already made tea and waited for them.Seeing everyone coming in, Miss Zhou greeted with a smile: "Morning Brother Zhou."

Zhou Shui responded casually: "Early, early, and you too."

Unexpectedly, Miss Zhou stared: "I'm not greeting you, just talking nonsense."

Mr. Zhou laughed, and said: "Morning, morning, that... sister is also early."

Miss Zhou pursed her lips and smiled, but said nothing.Everyone sat down, and Miss Zhou brought tea.While everyone was drinking tea, Ms. Zhou asked Mr. Zhou: "Didn't you bring out that Tiehe Jianguan?" After finishing speaking, she said to herself: "Who still brings Zhang Qin when going out? It's not an unnecessary question." ."

Hearing that Miss Zhou mentioned Tiehejian Pass, Mr. Zhou was a little nervous, put down his teacup and asked: "I remember, you said something like this when we first met: Could it be that the person who gave me the piano really came? Brother Yu asked In a word, did the old man promise you something? This... is it for borrowing? Or...?"

Miss Zhou frowned, and said, "It's a reward, I've given it to you."

"Ah? I..." Zhou Lao cried out.Seeing that Mr. Zhou's face turned pale, everyone was a little at a loss.

Seeing Mr. Zhou's embarrassment, Ms. Zhou giggled, and hurriedly said, "Don't take it seriously, I'm just kidding you. The old man said that this piano is a family heirloom. Play for two days. Hehehe, it scares you."

At this time, Elder Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression was a little awkward.In fact, Mr. Zhou is not a stingy person. If it is only about money, Mr. Zhou will not blink.But this must be a family heirloom, the lifeblood of Mr. Zhou.So some gaffes.

Miss Zhou made a joke, but Mr. Zhou is fine.Rigorousness has some small emotions - although she is a junior sister, she is several years younger than her son and daughter-in-law.This joke was not inappropriate, especially it made Mr. Zhou a little bit embarrassed.Yan Jing coughed, and said seriously: "Miss Zhou, it's almost noon, and the business has not been done yet. Shall we continue this business?"

Miss Zhou also sensed the rigorous emotions, stuck out her tongue, and hurriedly said: "Do, do, of course, wait a moment, I will contact you."

Miss Zhou made a phone call, speaking in the local dialect, and her voice was very low.Putting down the phone, she smiled and said rigorously: "The things are ready, but they are not here. Together with the jade bull yesterday, they belong to a friend. Why don't we go and have a look? Not far, walk for 5 minutes arrive."

In fact, Zhou Shui didn't pay much attention to buying the goods this time, even if it was picking the omissions.What is the purpose of this trip to Taiyuan, Zhou Shui dare not forget even a minute.Now things are moving forward step by step, but none of the steps is what Zhou Shui wants.Some things happened inexplicably, as if they were leaning on the inside story, but after careful observation, they were far away from the problem.Ordinarily, the situation should be pressing now—the judgment from the heavens may be half a year later, but it may also be in the next minute.What is embarrassing is that Zhou Shui still doesn't know where to start.Elder Zhou seems to be a bit measured, but what is puzzling is that he is not in a hurry, at least on the surface.If it was purely to make money with Miss Zhou to see the goods, Zhou Shui didn't want to go, mainly because he was not in the mood.

Rigorousness is the same way of thinking, and Miss Zhou just made a joke of Mr. Zhou, so that Rigorousness has some resistance.So he said rigorously, "Forget it, we didn't come here for this."

Listening to Yan Jing's words, an imperceptible trace of anxiety flashed across Ms. Zhou's face.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhou said: "Let's take a look. It's good to have a look."

Miss Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.It's not good to be rigorous now.Elder Zhou stood up first: "It's good to walk, it's just a good time to move around."

Miss Zhou was at the front, Mr. Zhou was at the back, and the others had no choice but to follow.Sure enough, it's not too far away, and it's only one stop after turning around a few buildings.I saw an old residential area.There are several alleys paved with blue bricks, with red-painted courtyard gates on both sides.The yards are not big, and there are only one family.There is a gate tower, and on both sides of the gate tower are white stone gate piers.There are not many people coming in and out. Compared with the street tens of meters away, this place is a different kind of world, very quiet.

This kind of house is rare now, especially in such a prosperous area where every inch of land is expensive.It seems that this group of old buildings before the Republic of China was deliberately left behind in order to preserve the city's cultural taste and residential models.It is probably the same nature as BJ's courtyard house and TJ's small western-style building.

The courtyard door is ajar.Miss Zhou opened the door and went in, and everyone followed behind.In the yard is a white stone table and four drum stools of the same material.The ground is also made of green bricks, which have been stepped on for many years and are oily.Facing it are three tile-roofed houses, with red glazed ridges and water-milled blue brick walls.The only characteristic of the times is that there is no paper on the window lattices of Duobaoge, and all of them are replaced with white glass.

Miss Zhou stopped in the courtyard and shouted: "Is Mr. Feng at home?"

"Is it Xiao Zhou? The door is open, come in." It was a man's voice, speaking in SX dialect from the east room.

The room still has the flavor of the old home. The main hall is a table, the Eight Immortals table, a pair of grand master chairs on both sides, and two guest chairs in the side compartment.It seems that this family is still an aristocratic family, and the household layout in the pre-Qing Dynasty was quite satisfactory.

The master came out from the east room.As soon as he showed his face, Zhou Shui's head "hummed" as he met Zhou Shui's eyes.

This Mr. Feng, the owner of this small courtyard, his next business partner is actually the middle-aged man who left without saying goodbye in the small teahouse.Zhou Shui was taken aback because he never expected to meet "Mr. Feng" again in this way.In Zhou Shui's subconscious mind, this Mr. Feng was the director of that tragedy.By extension, it is very likely that he is the enemy of his trip to Taiyuan.And it is a strong enemy.Zhou Shui was caught off guard for a while.

But this Mr. Feng had a calm demeanor, neither showing the surprise of seeing an "acquaintance" at first, nor the fear of being bumped into by a "murderer".In short, what is natural cannot be more natural.

Mr. Feng spoke first, and he said to Miss Zhou: "We met in the small teahouse, but we didn't communicate. My surname is Feng, so it's fine to call me Old Feng." Mr. Feng offered to extend his hand to Mr. Zhou.

Zhou Lao's expression was not as exaggerated as Zhou Shui's, but he was also slightly alert.The two shook hands, and Mr. Zhou said, "My surname is Zhou. Indeed, we met at the teahouse."

Mr. Feng smiled and extended his hand to Zhou Shui.Zhou Shui couldn't laugh anymore, so he stretched out his hand.As soon as the two joined hands, Zhou Shui pressed the pulse of Mr. Feng's wrist with his right thumb, and pressed the remaining four fingers against Mr. Feng's wrist.Zhou Shui used old Motou's method to deal with the police again.

Now that Zhou Shui wants to take this Mr. Feng, he must take this Mr. Feng. This is considered a sneak attack.Zhou Shui thought this way, this Mr. Feng is undoubtedly a person with supernatural powers, everyone on his side entered Feng's house, this is considered to be in the "formation" - looking at Mr. Feng's expression, it is obvious that he is prepared.If Mr. Feng is the enemy, he will act first to restrain Mr. Feng and gain the initiative. Everyone on his side will be present. If he fails, the entire army will be wiped out.At this time, it is already a last resort.Taking a step back, if Mr. Feng was a friend, it would be too late for him to make an apology.

To deal with the policeman, Zhou Shui waited for him to use his strength, and the more he exerted his strength, the more restrained he was.As for Mr. Feng, Zhou Shui didn't dare to wait, and directly exerted his strength.This is the silk-wrapping strength of Taijiquan.If the opponent doesn't know how to crack it, even Tyson will have to be controlled by Zhou Shui.

As soon as Zhou Shui exerted his strength, the opponent had no intention of cracking it, and his hand was still stretched out like this.For a moment, Zhou Shui was overjoyed. It seemed that this person had no kung fu and could restrain him.Unexpectedly, when Zhou Shui twisted his wrist, the opponent didn't move at all.This is not right, it stands to reason that when the wrist pulse is pinched, the opponent's entire shoulder becomes numb, and immediately the opponent's body has to fall there sideways.

Zhou Shui struggled again, and found that his hand strength seemed to be "wrapped" on the iron rod, and he did not appear to be restrained at all.This week the sweat came down.This is four taels of pulling a thousand catties, even if Yang Luchan himself is alive, if he wants to not be restrained, he must make a movement with his hands, even if it is shaking his wrists to relieve his strength.But this person didn't seem to realize it.

Mr. Feng still had the same smile on his face, and his hands were still stretched out like that. He neither countered Zhou Shui, nor did he show any displeasure on his face.

If Zhou Shui attacks again, it will be considered shameless, and now the strength has been judged.Not to mention strength or weakness, these strengths and weaknesses are relative, and there is comparison to be superior or inferior.But Zhou Shui's two strokes are incomparable to Mr. Feng's. It's not a matter of "quantity".Even if Zhou Shui did meet Yang Luchan, nicknamed Yang Wudi, the situation would probably be like this.

Now, Zhou Shui will be sure to control you one by one, just with a flick of a finger.Since Mr. Feng didn't do anything, it meant that he was not hostile, at least for the time being.However, maybe people are not in a hurry.If Mr. Feng wants to end Zhou Shui and his party, he will kill all of them in three seconds, including Mr. Zhou.

The hand "holding" is over.Mr. Feng was still very polite and arranged for everyone to sit down.Elder Zhou is also surprised now, he has seen the whole process of Zhou Shui's use of force, and his thoughts are - who is this person, Zhang Sanfeng's reincarnation, or is it possessed by Sun Lutang?It's okay to be a friend, but it's troublesome to be an enemy.

Mr. Feng brought tea again and sat down with him.After Mr. Zhou had finished his tea, Mr. Feng cupped his hands: "Where is Brother Zhou's family name? You can get used to it when you come to Taiyuan."

This is polite speech, a very normal etiquette.Zhou Lao hurriedly said: "Now I live in Qinyang, what about my ancestral home? It's also Taiyuan. This can be regarded as returning to my hometown, and I don't worry about the soil and water."

Mr. Feng nodded: "That's good. Miss Zhou told me that this Mr. Zhou is a fellow of the same way. Xiao Ke has hidden a few gadgets here, and I want to ask you a question or two, so I made an appointment with you. Don't be rude."

Mr. Feng's speech was extremely polite, and Zhou Shui's tension eased a lot.Just now, when we met, I made a move, which made me feel ashamed. Although I am still embarrassed now, the anxiety of being in a dangerous situation has subsided, and I can speak more freely.However, doubts about the tragedy must still remain, and there is still a sense of defense.

Zhou Shui said: "It's impossible to ask for advice. Mr. Feng's Taoism is superb, his martial arts are world-class, and he must have great wisdom in his chest. This antique must be a leader in the industry. The younger generation dare not make a fool of yourself."

Just now Mr. Feng called Mr. Zhou Brother Zhou, and since Zhou Shui was impressed by martial arts, Zhou Shui used the word "junior" in his mouth.Mr. Feng looked bewildered, and said: "This Taoism is supernatural, and I have some secrets, so I don't want to mention it. How did this martial arts surpass the world? My little friend praised it absurdly."

Isn't this considered martial arts unrivaled?But Mr. Feng had a puzzled expression on his face, it definitely didn't look like he was acting.There is no concealment of the Taoism, and there is no need to keep a low profile when martial arts are world-class.Although we just talked a few words, looking at Mr. Feng's speech and behavior now, it is more convincing to say that he looks like a sour scholar.Although Zhou Shui is not very old, he still has a good way of judging people-if a person's eyes flicker, his speech is vague, and he has to predict a sentence, then this kind of person must be very scheming.And this Mr. Feng spoke casually, his tone and expression were all calm and natural. Obviously, there was no mystery in these words.At this time, Zhou Shui was more inclined to believe that Mr. Feng's words came from the heart.In that case, this Mr. Feng really doesn't know martial arts?But how can there be such a person in the world.

Mr. Feng also said: "These few gadgets can't be called collections. Xiaoke has no other skills, but makes a living by them, so..."

Having said that, Mr. Feng hesitated and stopped talking.At this time Miss Zhou took the words: "So, if you like it, sell it too."

Mr. Feng nodded vigorously. It seems that his "unspeakable secret" Miss Zhou has spoken for him, and he is quite grateful.At this time, Zhou Shui already had a firm understanding that this Mr. Feng would definitely not be the one who blocked his money with a blind eye.Because this person has an almost naive literati air, and he has a strong sense of shame.

But Zhou Shui was still a little puzzled. Ms. Zhou said that yesterday's jade cow belonged to a friend, that is, this Mr. Feng.In this case, he has already earned 50 yuan, but judging by Mr. Feng's attitude, he is quite eager to sell the goods.

Looking at the doubts on Zhou Shui's face, Ms. Zhou said: "Mr. Feng is a great philanthropist, and all the money he earns is used to do good deeds. Isn't it coming to winter soon? If the poor can't afford it, Mr. Feng will help them out." .”

This Mr. Feng was still embarrassed, and his face was a little red: "It's a matter of duty and responsibility, and it's not good to talk about doing good. The ability is limited, try to do it, it's a joke."

Zhou Shui and Mr. Zhou looked at each other, they were both secretly surprised, doing good deeds is their duty, so he is the director of civil affairs?Even the head of the Civil Affairs Bureau doesn't need to make money to distribute relief money.

At this time, Miss Zhou took out a box from the back room, and opened it to find several pieces of jade.Zhou Shui was taken out and placed on the table.The quality of the things is not bad, there are five pieces in total, three toy pieces, and two jade pendants, all five pieces added together are not as valuable as the jade cow.However, since it is doing good deeds, Zhou Shui is also at ease to buy at a high price.He didn't even look carefully, and said to Mr. Feng, "Xiao Ke is being abrupt. Please quote me a price."

Mr. Feng's face was still red: "Jia, Yiliao City, has already insulted the gentlemen, I dare not argue with each other, please send me a price."

Zhou Shui thought for a while: "Then 50 yuan, do you think it would be good?" Although the five pieces of jade are exquisite, they must be folk objects, and the genre is limited. 50 is already high, and it will be difficult for Zhou Shui to return the capital, let alone profit.But with that jade bull on top, Zhou Shui can still make a small profit after all.

Mr. Feng was overjoyed, and bowed to the ground: "Mr. Zhou, I thank you for your good deeds."

Zhou Shui hurriedly supported him.Zhou Shui didn't bring cash, so Ms. Zhou went to the store to swipe her card with rigor.Ruyu also followed.

Mr. Feng changed the tea again and chatted with Zhou Shui and his son.Now that he had a preliminary understanding of Mr. Feng, Zhou Shui wanted to ask what was in his heart. He stood up, bowed deeply to Mr. Feng, and said, "Sir, this junior is confused. I don't know whether to ask or not?"

Mr. Feng seemed to have guessed what Zhou Shui wanted to ask, and he said without hesitation: "This is also Xiao Ke's duty. Originally, there was no need to go to the scene. It can be said to be a supervisor, or it can be said to see him off. In short, This is God's will. I remember that you wanted to stop it at the time, and that would be against God's will, but it's okay..."

Mr. Zhou could hear the tragedy outside the teahouse that Mr. Feng was talking about.This is what Elder Zhou wants to know.This is God's will, these four words are very important, this is the best answer - that young man should have suffered this, the director is not Mr. Feng, not anyone.In this way, this matter can come to an end.

Mr. Feng was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "Since it is God's will, it naturally has its cause and effect. Everything is determined, you can't force it, and you two should encourage each other."

This made Zhou Shui and his son's heart skip a beat—Mr. Feng seemed to have something to say.
