The world of film and television begins from childhood

He told Wu Jingui in detail what he was going to do, and then said, "Old Wu, I'm not asking you to do this for free. If it works out, I'll give you a commission."

"Zhou Chen, if you say that, it's too polite. What is our relationship? Don't mention the commission."

When Wu Jingui heard Zhou Chen say he wanted money, he immediately became unhappy. He was a grateful man, and Zhou Chen had helped him so much. If he did Zhou Chen this favor and asked for money, and other people in the dormitory knew about it, who knows how they would frame him.

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Old Wu, we have a friendship, but we have our own rules in this business. Moreover, this may not be the last time I ask you for help. You may need to help me with the same thing in the future. If you don't take the commission, how can I dare to ask you for help in the future?"

"But……"

"Don't say buts, just listen to me. Friendship is friendship, but if I ask you to do something, you must give me a commission. That's a deal."

Zhou Chen did not give him a chance to refuse. He made the decision directly and said, "I bought you a set of clothes and put them on your bed. You put them on tomorrow and go find someone according to what I told you."

"Ah? You bought me clothes?"

"We should do the whole thing, not just a one-time deal. Old Wu, we have known each other for four years. I dare not say anything else, but as long as you help me, I can guarantee that in the future I will be able to buy you a house in Yanjing and bring your wife and children over."

After hearing what Zhou Chen said, Wu Jingui's face immediately showed a look of longing.

Among those who come to Yenching University from other places, few do not want to stay after graduation.

Although Wu Jingui was a top student at Peking University, he studied history and his professional level was not very good. He was in the lower average level in the class, so his chances of staying in Yenching were very slim.

He knew Zhou Chen's abilities, and also knew that Zhou Chen's second uncle was a high-ranking official. If he could work behind Zhou Chen, it might be more promising than returning to his hometown to become a cadre.

The reason why Zhou Chen looked for Wu Jingui was not only because Wu Jingui was an honest person, but also because he studied history.

Archaeology and history are inseparable. Having Wu Jingui help him is definitely more reliable than Huang Feilong and Chen Yan.

"Okay, then I'll give it a try. If it doesn't work, don't be polite to me, just tell me directly."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "If it were someone else, I might really be worried, but I believe you will be absolutely fine."

"Come on, come with me to my house first, and I'll tell you the details in detail."

The next day, around four o'clock in the afternoon, Wu Jingui arrived at the entrance of the alley on time and waited patiently.

Today he was wearing a brand new Zhongshan suit and gold-rimmed glasses, revealing a scholarly air. His hair was combed neatly, and he looked very energetic and elegant. At first glance, one could tell that he was a very cultured person.

This suit was specially prepared for him by Zhou Chen. It was because of this suit that Wu Jingui was even more grateful to Zhou Chen.

In fact, he could afford this set of clothes, but he just couldn't bear to do so because he had a wife and two children in his hometown, and he sent most of the subsidy from the school back home.

During his four years in college, he only went home once. The rest of the time, he worked odd jobs to earn money. New clothes were a luxury for him.

After thinking about it for a while, Wu Jingui pushed his glasses, calmed himself down, and stood up straight, because the target had appeared.

Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin pushed their bicycles and walked along the alley towards their home.

Both of them are teachers, but one teaches high school and the other teaches junior high school. Although they are in the same school, their courses are often different and their working hours are also different.

Today, it was a rare occasion that they both got off work at the same time, so they went home together.

They had just turned the corner and had not yet entered the alley where their home was when they suddenly heard someone calling them.

"Teacher Su, Teacher Liu."

Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin paused and looked towards the source of the sound, only to see a well-dressed man wearing gold-rimmed glasses walking towards them.

"Teacher Su, Teacher Liu, we have finally met you."

Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes. Su Hongwen asked, "Comrade, who are you?"

The person who came was naturally Wu Jingui. He smiled and said, "Teacher Su, Teacher Liu, hello. My last name is Wu, you can just call me Xiao Wu. I came here today just to meet you two."

Su Hongwen's vigilance eased slightly when he saw that Wu Jingui spoke politely and was a well-mannered person.

"Hello, Comrade Xiao Wu, I don't think we know each other?"

Wu Jingui said, "Yes, teachers, we didn't know each other before. I came here today to ask for your help."

Liu Xueqin was more alert and asked, "Xiao Wu, we are just ordinary teachers. I'm afraid there is nothing I can do to help you, right?"

Wu Jingui seemed to have just noticed Liu Xueqin's vigilance. He patted his head in embarrassment and said, "Oh, sorry, I forgot to introduce myself to you two. I am a graduate of the History Department of Peking University. My name is Wu Jingui and I am an antique collector."

"A graduate of Peking University's history department? An antique collector?"

Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. However, looking at Wu Jingui's gentle appearance, he didn't seem like a liar or a bad person.

"Comrade Xiao Wu, is there anything you need our help with?"

Wu Jingui said: "Teachers, I came to see you today because of an old item in your hands."

"For the old things in our hands?"

This confused Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin.

"Comrade Xiao Wu, you have confused us. What old things do we have that are worth you making a special trip?"

Wu Jingui said: "It is a Huanghuali wood box. The box is made of Huanghuali wood, and there is a wooden card inside. On it is engraved an article, "Love Lotus Says."

"To be honest, I have had the idea of ​​getting this box for a long time, but I never had the chance to get it until a few days ago when I heard that this item fell into the hands of the two teachers. So I came to find the two teachers and wanted to buy it from you two."

Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin still looked confused.

"Comrade Xiao Wu, we are not deliberately shirking responsibility. We really don't know about the box you are talking about. We have never bought one. Did you make a mistake?"

Wu Jingui was surprised for a moment, but then shook his head firmly.

"Impossible, my friend assured me that there is absolutely no mistake. Teacher Su, Teacher Liu, please think about it carefully. It is a yellowish box with a wooden note inside."

"Teachers, the reason why I tried so hard to find out about this item is not because of myself, but because my teacher likes this item very much, so I want to buy it and give it to him. If you are willing to sell it to me, I am willing to pay one thousand yuan."

Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin were immediately shocked. Although they were both teachers, one thousand yuan was a considerable amount of money for them.

But Su Hongwen still smiled bitterly and said, "Comrade Xiao Wu, it's not that we don't want to help, but we really haven't bought this thing."

"Impossible, teachers, please think about it carefully." Wu Jingui looked anxious.

Su Hongwen wanted to speak, but Liu Xueqin pulled him back and said to Wu Jingui, "Comrade Wu, how about this? Let's go back and look for it first. If we find it, we can talk about it in detail. What do you think?"

Wu Jingui showed an unwilling expression, but after thinking about it, he nodded.

"Okay, then, I'll leave my phone number for you two teachers. If you find it, please call me and I'll come over. I only have one request, which is that if you find it, please leave it for me."

As he spoke, he took out a small notebook from his pocket, tore off a piece of paper, wrote down the phone number with the pen pinned to his chest, and handed it to Su Hongwen.

Su Hongwen took the paper and said politely, "We will."

Before leaving, Wu Jingui showed a look of reluctance on his face and emphasized it again.

"Teacher Su, Teacher Liu, no matter whether you can find it or not, please contact me. I'll be waiting for your call."

I had something to do at home today, so I didn't write much. Please forgive me.

Chapter 655: The treasure is covered in dust, Han Chunyan has waited for seven years

Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin returned home with doubts.

They still haven't recovered from what happened at the entrance of the alley.

If someone suddenly shows up and wants to buy something from them that they don't even know about, normally they will be wary and suspicious.

But the problem was that not only did the other person say his name, he also stated that he was a graduate of Peking University and left them his phone number.

As for a student from Peking University, would he come here to cheat them? It seems unlikely even if you think about it.

If they were not lying, then could it be that what the other party said was true, and that they really had a Huanghuali letter box at home?

"Lao Su, what do you think about what happened just now?" Liu Xueqin asked her husband.

Su Hongwen was still looking at the piece of paper with the phone number in his hand. When he heard his wife's words, he replied, "In fact, if we just call this number, we can know whether Xiao Wu is cheating us; but I think the possibility is very small. He is a student of Peking University. He would not cheat two ordinary people like us, right?"

Liu Xueqin nodded and said, "I think the same thing as you, but I think this matter is too strange. They didn't ask us for money or say anything, but instead said they would spend a thousand yuan to buy our things. This doesn't seem like a scam."

Su Hongwen: "But the problem is, we don't have that box at all?"

"That's what I find strange. Even we ourselves don't know about our things. How did he know about them?"

While the two were talking, Grandma Su walked in from outside.

"Hey, you two came back together today?"

"Mother."

When Liu Xueqin saw her mother-in-law, she suddenly thought that the two of them didn't know much about the things at home, but her mother-in-law, who was at home every day, must know much more about the things at home than they did.

So she asked, "Mom, do we have a yellowish wooden box with a wooden note inscribed with many words in it?"

When Su Hongwen heard what his wife said, he also looked at his mother.

Grandma Su looked confused: "Why do you think of asking this?"

Su Hongwen explained, "Mom, when we just came back, we met a man who wanted to buy a Huanghuali box from us. Xueqin and I have never seen this at home, but he said with certainty that the item was in our house, so we thought of asking you."

"Yes, Mom, think about it carefully. He said he was willing to spend a thousand dollars to buy that thing. I think he can spend so much money, which means that the box must be very valuable."

Liu Xueqin added that although she was tempted by the thousand yuan, what she cared about more was the Huanghuali box that the other party mentioned.

When Grandma Su heard her daughter-in-law say that the thing was worth one thousand yuan, she was shocked and then started thinking about it.

"It's so valuable. Let me think about it."

Although Grandma Su is old, she is not confused. After thinking carefully for a while, she suddenly remembered.

"Oh, now I remember there really is a wooden box that looks a lot like what you're talking about."

Su Hongwen immediately urged: "Mom, please bring it over to us quickly."

"Okay, the things are in my room, just wait, I'll get them out now."

As she said this, she walked into her room, and after a while, she came out holding a wooden box.

"This is it."

Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin looked at the wooden box on the table curiously. The color of the box was indeed a bit yellowish and looked quite old.

"open to take a look."

Su Hongwen opened the wooden box and found it was full of balls of thread.

Grandma Su said, "I think this wooden box is useless, so I use it for sewing. It's quite useful."

If Han Chunming saw this scene, he would probably faint from anger. Such a precious treasure was actually used as a sewing box.

Is there any reason?

Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin didn't care. They just took out the needle and thread ball inside, and then they saw the golden nanmu wooden plaque in the box.

"The love of chrysanthemum is rarely heard of since Tao Yuanming, and who loves lotus as much as I do......"

When Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin saw this piece of Ailian, they were shocked and looked at each other.

"What Xiao Wu said turned out to be true."

“Is this thing worth a thousand dollars?”

Liu Xueqin looked doubtful, but Su Hongwen said, "It's hard to say. I think this box is really unusual. If I meet someone I like, it's possible that I could get a thousand dollars, or even more."

Grandma Su asked, "Is there really someone willing to pay a thousand dollars for this box?"

Su Hongwen nodded and said, "Well, he also left us his phone number. We didn't know it before, but now we know it. Do you want to call him?"

"Don't fight yet."

Liu Xueqin stopped Su Hongwen: "Don't fight for now. We don't know the value of this thing. If he said it's one thousand, is it really only one thousand? Maybe it could be more than one thousand?"

"Makes sense."

Su Hongwen also agreed. His family's conditions were not bad, so they would not be dazzled by the one thousand yuan.

"Mom, where did this box come from? I don't think I've seen it before."

Liu Xueqin also looked at her mother-in-law with curiosity. Their family had hidden such a valuable thing, and they had no idea about it before.

Grandma Su was afraid that they might misunderstand, so she quickly explained, "This thing is not ours. Do you remember the night when Meng Meng was admitted to university and we and the Cheng family celebrated for the two children?"

"What does that have to do with this wooden box?"

"That night, Han Chunming came over and gave Su Meng a gift, which was this wooden box."

Su Hongwen and Liu Xueqin finally reacted.

"Mom, are you saying that this wooden box was given to our Mengmeng by Han Chunming, and it's not ours?"
