Chapter 86 Of course there is
It would be excusable to say that this happened 30 years ago.At that time, there were many good objects, and it was possible to have a batch of high-quality goods like this with both quantity and quality.But now, whether it is in the city or the countryside, after repeated raids by peddlers on motorcycles, even if there are a few leftovers that slip through the net, they will definitely not form a batch.

What's even more exciting is that these jade articles are extremely cheap.Including the jade pot, Zhou Shui spent a total of 65 yuan.Because of the large number of people, Yan Yan spent more than three hours in the bank before finishing the payment.

Zhou Shui felt a little uneasy, and spent 65 yuan.Looking at the value of these things, conservatively speaking, there is also a net profit of 300 million.And things went as smoothly as possible, the seller offered a very low price, and Zhou Shui gave a token change, and everyone happily agreed.

Zhou Shui held this batch of jade articles, like dreaming, the more he thought about it, the more unreal it became.When Zhou Shui returned to the clinic, Sister Ma was not there and drove out.Elder Zhou is here, closing his eyes and resting his mind.Du Juan went back to Bai's house to give Xiao Zuo a massage.Xiao Liang and Zhou Shui said that Xiao Huang's mother and daughter had come, and Mr. Zhou gave Xiao Huang's mother an injection.Xiao Huang was very strange today, his face was full of anger, and Xiao Liang didn't dare to ask.

Zhou Shui half-listened and half-ignored while waiting for Xiaoliang to finish, his head was full of those jades, supposedly the sale was reasonable and legal, but Zhou Shui couldn't calm down, he always felt that there was something wrong with the jade bought .

At this time, Yan Jing came back, took a sip of water and complained to Zhou Shui: "If there is such a thing again, it is better to withdraw cash. The little girl at the bank was dumbfounded when she saw the list. I have been doing it for three hours, and my legs are numb. .”

Hearing Yan Jing's words, Mr. Zhou opened his eyes. Just as he was about to say something, his eyes swept over Zhou Shui's face, he paused for a moment, and his body was startled.Said to Zhou Shui: "Come closer." Zhou Shui went in without knowing it, and walked a few steps forward.Elder Zhou looked at Zhou Shui's face carefully, and asked Zhou Shui anxiously, "What have you been doing today?"

Zhou Shui said: "I just bought a few pieces of jade, and the rest is nothing serious."

Elder Zhou asked again: "Think about it again, is there nothing else?"

Zhou Shui was even more puzzled, and asked Mr. Zhou, "Dad, what's going on?"

Zhou Shui is also considered a practitioner, plus he has the skill of "Yuan Hai Zi Commentary", some things are far more open than ordinary people.Elder Zhou didn't hide it from him, and said, "It was fine yesterday, it was only one day, why did you appear in prison?"

Zhou Shui was taken aback and said, "No way?"

Elder Zhou pointed to the mirror on the wall and said, "Look for yourself." Zhou Shui turned his face away, and his own face was in the mirror.Zhou Shui's head buzzed.Sure enough, the paper on his face was so-so—Saturn is dim.Fortunately, not long.

Since yesterday was fine, the reason for this prison should be due to today.Zhou Shui went through today's events in his head.In the end, it still fell on this batch of jade.Zhou Shui was thinking wildly, when Lao An called in: "A new batch of jade wares appeared in the Liukongqiao market, did you move it?"

Hearing Lao An's tone of anxiety, Zhou Shui's heart sank, and asked Lao An: "What's going on?"

Lao An sighed: "I still bought it after all. The batch of jade was dug out by migrant workers from the cellar under the bell tower of West Street. Those businessmen from Liukong Bridge arrived immediately, and no one dared to make a move at that time, but this It’s too big. In the end, after everyone discussed it, let’s divide it up, one or two pieces per person, there are so many people, the law doesn’t take heavy responsibility.”

When Zhou Shui heard this, it was as if a pot of cold water had been poured on his head.The heart said: "Repay the law and not blame the public?"There are only a dozen or so shopkeepers at the Six-Arch Bridge, so how many people are there?Furthermore, if the cellar is dug up in broad daylight in the downtown area, it will be easily lost, unless the newly appointed Chief Wu wants to retire early.

This week, Shui is really scratching his head.Looking at Zhou Shui rigorously, seeing that Zhou Shui's forehead was covered with sweat, he said distressedly, "Why don't we return the things?"

Zhou Shui shook his head and said in a low voice: "I haven't set such a precedent. Besides, I can't afford to lose this person even if there are more than a dozen merchants returning goods from house to house."If this batch of jade is not handled well, don't talk about saving Mr. Lu, let's get yourself first.

At this time, a call came in, Zhou Shui didn't know the number, so he hung up casually.Not long enough, the call came in again, and Zhou Shui cursed in his heart: Damn, I still persevere.

There was a slightly old voice on the phone, calling him Mr. Zhou directly.Zhou Shui was taken aback. Hearing the voice, this person's age would not be younger than 50 years old. People from his father's generation called him Mr., and no one in his life circle, but Zhou Shui still said hello respectfully.

The other party first introduced himself: "My surname is Ding, and I work in Qinyang Museum." Zhou Shui thought for a while, and this person should be the curator Ding.Curator Ding said again: "Lu Mo, Mr. Lu often mentioned you to me, saying that you are profound in Chinese studies, masterful in Xinglin, skilled in the six arts, easy to use, and you are an incomparable genius."

These words were exaggerated, but Zhou Shui was very useful in his heart.He couldn't help cursing himself secretly: "Damn, typical inferiority." Zhou Shui immediately took over the words: "Mr. Ding, I heard that Xiao Ke, the leader of the painting circle in the province, has also admired him for a long time. If there is a chance, Xiao Ke will ask for advice in person.”

The two of you said something, and I said something. After talking a lot of nonsense, curator Ding said: "The Municipal Cultural Bureau informed us yesterday that Mr. Zhou wanted to donate a seal and asked us to contact you. No, from Lu Mo. I asked for your number, and I called right away."

When it came to donating, Zhou Shui suddenly had an idea and said, "Come here, I still have some things here, and I plan to donate them together."

Sure enough, curator Ding was overjoyed and said loudly: "Great, our Qinyang Museum has been in the collection for 20 years, and none of the artifacts have been collected. Now it's all right, and I have an explanation."

Zhou Shuixin said: It's a good thing to donate. If you buy and sell jade articles yourself, who knows what will happen that day.No matter how you say the donation certificate is a shield.Zhou Shui immediately said again: "You'd better come here now, Secretary Gao is in a hurry, if he misses his work, all of us will lose any credit."

Zhou Shui carried Secretary Gao out, which was also a way to shoot a bird with a gun.Those jade articles that I just bought must be disposed of immediately.If Zhang Kejian is allowed to go ahead, things will be very difficult.

Sure enough, Director Ding said, "Where are you? We'll be there soon."

Zhou Shui said, "I'll wait for you here at the Chinese Medicine Museum at Liukong Bridge."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Shui went home and brought the seal.After waiting for about half an hour, Director Ding appeared.Needless to introduce, Curator Ding is dressed in a painterly look - his gray hair is tied into a small braid on the back of his neck, his jacket is a bright red Tang suit, and his lower body is wearing jeans.

The appearance is quite elegant, but the matching of the clothes, no matter how you look at it, has a feeling of being stuck in the throat.There are two other people behind Curator Ding, a woman in her forties, wearing glasses, plainly dressed, and exuding the temperament of an old college student.The other was in his sixties, with black-rimmed glasses, and surprisingly, this man actually wore a pair of blue cloth sleeves on his arms.

Zhou Shui greeted him quickly, clasped Curator Ding's hands tightly, and spoke one teacher at a time. He was very polite for a while, and then introduced the people on his side.Curator Ding is very sensible, bowed deeply in front of Mr. Zhou, and even called him old man.It surprised Mr. Zhou.He hurriedly supported him, and said repeatedly: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, Mr. Ding is a master of ink painting, and he is going to the countryside. I am ashamed, I am ashamed, I am not ashamed."

When Curator Ding bowed, Zhou Shui immediately regarded him as a friend.Obviously, Curator Ding acted like a nephew.He put himself in the position of Brother Zhou Shui.But look at the face.It is more appropriate for Mr. Zhou and Director Ding to switch positions.Curator Ding has this gift, not only Zhou Shui, he has conquered everyone on Zhou Shui's side.Especially rigorous, the color of friendliness is more obvious.

Director Ding introduced the two people behind him.The woman is the director of the collection department, and the man is some kind of expert from the Artifacts Department.Zhou Shui remembered his position, but not his name.

After finishing the boring talk, curator Ding officially entered the topic: "You make a list of the utensils you want to donate, and we need to review them."

Zhou Shui was a little surprised: "Mr. Ding, I donated for free. If I don't pass the review, isn't that equivalent to giving up for nothing?"

Director Ding smiled and laughed a bit: "Do you think we are stupid? This is just a procedure, which involves the honor to be given to you, or the government's attitude in a certain project."

Curator Ding glanced at Zhou Shui again, and said suspiciously: "You won't really give it for free, will you? Do you have any demands?"

Zhou Shui said, "Of course..."

Yan Jing suddenly took the lead: "Of course."
