Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Stealing People’s Money
Translator: 549690339
Jing Yunzhao had heard a lot about the worker from Qiao Weimin in her previous life. According to him, someone went to look for the worker after he sold the vase. The worker was very resentful at that time, but he could not find the antique dealer to settle the score, so he could only keep his anger to himself.
It was not that he regretted the transaction, but he was in a hurry to use the money when he sold the item. At that time, he asked for 200,000 yuan. Others thought that he was a fool. Later, when the merchant came, he told him that the item was fake.
The merchant was eloquent and said a lot of words that the worker did not understand, making the worker think that the thing in his hand was indeed a fake. In despair, the merchant showed sympathy and cheated the thing with
1,000 yuan.
At that time, after the item was sold, he was especially grateful to the merchant. Who knew that in less than a month, the item would be targeted by others and rise to more than 20 million!
This worker was also honest. He was not coveting the sky-high price. He only wanted his 200,000 yuan.
Because of that, Jing Yunzhao did not feel guilty about stealing the merchant’s money.
When they got closer, Jing Yunzhao stopped in front of the worker.
He looked to be in his fifties or sixties. His skin was dark, his face was full of wrinkles, and his eyes seemed to be filled with worry. He was holding a large blue and white jar in his hands, afraid that he would be accidentally kicked over by others.
His hands were rough and dry. It was obvious that he had worked hard for many years. His back was slightly bent, and his clothes were covered in a layer of dust. Two shallow pits were formed under his feet, and mud stained his shoes, making them even more old.
“Uncle, are you selling this porcelain jar?”Jing Yunzhao asked.
When he said this, the people at the breakfast stall next door were all attracted over. This Old Li had been holding the big can in the small market for a month. There were also people who asked about it, but when they heard the price, everyone flinched.
They didn’t know much about antiques. They only knew that the can was old and couldn’t hold much. At most, it could be used as a decoration. If it was dozens of yuan, they could accept it. 200 ,ooo yuan…Only a fool would buy it.
However, the ones who usually spoke were mostly men over forty years old. Why did a little girl appear today…
Moreover, this girl looked familiar. If they were not mistaken, she should be Qiao Weimin’s eldest daughter, right? I heard that she was chased out of the house. Is that true?
Old Li had a good temper.” Little girl, my big jar is expensive. It’s useless even if you ask.””
“You’d better tell me the price first. I quite like this thing. If the price is right, I’ll buy it. “Jing Yunzhao added.
Old Li shook his head. The girl was a good girl. She probably felt sorry for him after seeing that he had been here for a long time.
“I’m not lying to you. My wife is sick. I’m selling this to raise money to treat her illness. It costs 200,000 yuan.”Old Li touched the canned food and felt a little reluctant to part with it.
He had dug up this thing when he was young. At that time, he did not dare to tell anyone. He had hidden it for 30 years. He did not know the origin of this big pot, but he thought that the things in the ground should be good, so he wanted to leave it to his son as a family heirloom.
However, he did not expect his wife to be sick.
He had been busy all his life, buying houses for his two sons, but he had no assets left.
She asked her sons for it, but both of them claimed that they were poor. After a few months of trouble, she still could not get half an old man’s head from those two sons.
He had no choice but to exchange the treasures he had hidden for decades for money.
However, the result was disappointing. Not to mention these outsiders, even his own son said that he was indulging in wishful thinking and treating a broken jar as a treasure.
“200,000, right? Uncle, when the nearby bank opens, please accompany me there. I’ll transfer the money to you.”Jing Yunzhao suddenly changed the topic when Mr. Li was complaining about his two sons..
