    Chu Chen thought about it and thought it would be better to get some information from Ma Xiaoqiang first. If there was no danger, then it would be okay for him to go there. If it was dangerous, then forget it.  Of course, even if the level of danger was not high, for the sake of Wu Ke's safety, he decided not to take Wu Ke with him.  Afterwards, Chu Chen asked Lin Dacheng for the phone number left by Ma Xiaoqiang.  The call was made and Ma Xiaoqiang was quickly connected. I heard that the caller was Chu Chen. Ma Xiaoqiang was extremely enthusiastic. Chu Chen secretly laughed at this. If Ma Xiaoqiang knew, Ma Laocai sold it to him.  The painting of Zhao Mengfu's "Luo Shen Fu" is an authentic work. Will you be so angry that you will vomit blood?  "Mr. Ma, to make a long story short, I wonder what the quality of your friend's stuff is like?" "WellI wonder if it's convenient for you, Mr. Chu?" Ma Xiaoqiang on the other end of the phone seemed hesitant.  "It's very convenient for me to be here. If you have anything, just tell me." Chu Chen said.  "To tell you the truth, my friend's stuff is really good. I believe you will be interested in it." "Mr. Ma, you are just saying something is good, but you have to let me know the truth."  "What is it?" "There are porcelain, wood, and bronze ware, and the quality is very good. One of them is a colorful cloud-dragon-patterned lid box from the Wanli period. This kind of bottle can be regarded as an important item."  If the blue and white porcelain was as important as he said, then Chu Chen would definitely go. But when he heard that there were bronzes among them, he couldn't help but worry a little whether Ma Xiaoqiang's friend might be a tomb robber.  Or simply a tomb robber gang. He had seen the madness of tomb robbers before, and there was really no guarantee of safety when dealing with such people.  "Mr. Ma, please forgive me for asking. Since you have such a valuable weapon, why didn't you find someone else? I believe there are many people in Wucheng who can buy such a weapon, right?" Ma Xiaoqiang heard this  He smiled and said: "Mr. Chu, to be honest, I have contacted several bosses before. But they all thought that my friend's bid was too high, and my friend didn't want to sell it at a low price. In the end, they just bought a few gadgets.  "Oh? Then you don't think I am stupid and have a lot of money?" Ma Xiaoqiang really thought so, but how could he admit it in person? "You are wronging me if you say that, Mr. Chu."  "My eyesight is so good, even if I want to find someone to take advantage of, I won't find someone like you?" "Actually, Chu Chen guessed it right. Ma Xiaoqiang's friend is indeed a member of a tomb robbery gang, and this time  The things for sale are also stolen goods.  To be honest, Ma Xiaoqiang was scared in prison before.  He originally didn't want to help his friend get slimmed, but he had no choice. He owed that friend a few favors.  In addition, the other party is indeed as cruel as Chu Chen thought, otherwise he would not help at all.  This time, my friend’s things were in a hurry, and they needed cash. The things were both plentiful and expensive, and Ma Xiaoqiang couldn’t find such a wealthy person for a while.  With no other choice, he decided on Chu Chen's head.  After several days of waiting, he thought Chu Chen would not call him.  Unexpectedly, he received an unexpected call today. Of course, he had to do his best to complete the business.  "Where is the transaction place?" Chu Chen asked.  "The location of the transaction is in a four-star hotel in Wucheng. It must be safe." Ma Xiaoqiang asked quickly.  Hearing that Ma Xiaoqiang only said it was a four-star hotel, but did not mention the name of the hotel, Chu Chen felt more and more that Ma Xiaoqiang's friend might be a tomb robber, or that the source of the thing was unknown, which immediately made him hesitate.  However, Chu Chen thought that there was Wanli's colorful cloud and dragon pattern cover box over there, and he was reluctant to give up. Then he thought about the location of the transaction. After all, it was a four-star hotel, and the safety aspect should be better, so he asked: "  What are your friend’s requirements for the transaction?” Ma Xiaoqiang replied: “My friend only needs to prepare 500,000 RMB in cash.” “This is not the same as the Wanli you are talking about.  The value of the Caiyun Dragon Pattern Cover Box is somewhat inconsistent, right? " Although Chu Chen also wanted to buy the thing at a cheaper price, since the other party can tell the name of the thing, how could he not understand the market value of the thing?  Could it be that Ma Xiaoqiang’s friends are planning to offer a lower price?  "Master Chu, you are joking. If the things are really that cheap, I can just buy them myself. As for asking you to bring 500,000 in cash, to be honest, I don't know much about it, but he should still have his own plans  " Having said this, Ma Xiaoqiang may have thought that Chu Chen would feel unsafe, so he added: "Mr. Chu, as for safety, you don't have to worry about it. I will take you to that hotel then, and you?You can have your own room and my friend will come to your room to trade with you. What do you think?  " Chu Chen thought for a while and felt that no matter what, he had to go and see it first, so he said, "Okay, then when should we go?  I have a lot of things going on lately, but I don’t have much time to stay in Wucheng.  " Ma Xiaoqiang said quickly: "If you can raise five hundred thousand in cash tomorrow, I can take you there tomorrow.  " "Okay, let's contact you tomorrow" After hanging up the phone, Chu Chen thought about it again and felt that there should be no danger in taking Hu Yong with him tomorrow, so he felt relieved. " Seeing Chu Chen hang up the phone,  Wu Ke asked: "How is it?  " Chu Chen replied: "It's okay, it's just that Ma Xiaoqiang wanted me to buy something from his friend, and I agreed.  "    "oh!  Chu Chen said again: "By the way, you can stay here and play for a while tomorrow. Hu Yong and I will go together."  "    "ah!  Why?  "Wu Ke knew that if there was no special reason, it would be impossible for Chu Chen not to take her there, which made her frown a little. "I think there is something wrong with the other party" With that, Chu Chen explained what was on the phone just now.  , repeated it again: “Since there is danger, you’d better not go!  "Wu Ke seemed a little worried. Lin Dacheng also advised: "Yes, safety should be the first priority!  Chu Chen said with a smile: "I will definitely book a room by myself then, and with Hu Yong here, there will definitely be no problem."  " "I will definitely protect Brother Chu!  " Hu Yong has been following Chu Chen for a long time. He knows that once Chu Chen decides, it is basically impossible to change it, so while making a promise, he also showed the pistol he carried, which also made Wu Ke  They felt a lot more relieved. Lin Dacheng's family really didn't expect that Hu Yong was still carrying such a weapon. They were still a little dazed for a while. When they came to their senses, they remembered Chu Chen's identity, and the person in front of them looked quite good.  Honest young man, while they were amazed by this, they also looked at Hu Yong with curiosity. "Hmm!  "After a while, when he saw that Hu Yong was a little embarrassed by them, Lin Dacheng coughed quickly, and then said: "Xiao Chen, anyway, I still say that you must pay attention to safety at all times.  " "Cousin, I remember it!  "Chu Chen nodded. Afterwards, everyone chatted for a while. As they were talking, Chu Chen noticed that Lin Dacheng and his wife looked at each other from time to time, as if something was wrong. Chu Chen asked: "  Cousin, is there something wrong with you?  " "Thishehe!  "Lin Dacheng laughed a few times, as if he was a little embarrassed to speak. "If you don't tell me, I will!  "Sister-in-law Lin said: "Brother-in-law, let me tell you, he spent a thousand yuan last week to buy some kind of screen The screen is said to be a good thing and can make a lot of money.  Can you help him see so that he can give up his will?  " "What are you talking about!  Can't I buy good things?  "Lin Dacheng said with a dark face. "You can buy good things, but you also have to look at what the other party is?  You don’t even know what kind of screen this is, but you can still buy good things?  "Sister-in-law Lin sneered. Seeing the couple quarreling, Chu Chen quickly said: "Cousin, let's see if the stuff is good or not, we'll talk about it later.  However, didn't my dad tell you before he left that it's best not to buy antiques if you don't have research on this aspect?  " Lin Dacheng smiled and said: "This is not the time to go to the market. The things are beautiful and old-fashioned, and the price is not expensive, so I bought it.  " When Mrs. Lin heard this, she angrily said: "One thousand yuan, but you still say it's not expensive!  What you said is so light!  "    "alright!  alright!  "Wu Ke quickly persuaded: "Sister-in-law, things are already like this, let's take a look at the things first and then talk about it" At this time, Lin Guangxin came over with the screen. This screen was made of wood, with only  On one side, there was a picture of admiring the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there was also a song "Silent Night Thoughts" engraved on it. As soon as Chu Chen saw the screen, he felt that there was a high chance that it was a fake, and the screen showed very conspicuous signs of distress.  "Cousin, what did the seller say when you bought this screen?"  " Lin Dacheng replied: "He said it was from the Ming Dynasty, and the price was 50,000 yuan. I felt that the thing was good, but if I wanted to buy it for 50,000 yuan, I would definitely not be able to buy it. So I bargained with him until the price reached 1,000 yuan.  That's a deal.  " Chu Chen secretly shook his head when he heard this. Lin Dacheng didn't know anything about this aspect.I don’t understand, but he would spend a thousand yuan to buy something. It seems that he really thinks that it is easy to pick up the missing items.  He asked again: "Then did it say what material the screen was made of?" Lin Dacheng thought for a while before replying: "It seems to be some old chicken wing wood!" Because there is something similar to "  It is named after the texture of "chicken wings".  Its texture is intertwined, clear, and the color is abrupt. It is a relatively beautiful wood among mahogany, has a slight aroma, and the growth rings are not obvious.  (To be continued)
