"Manager Ma, let me ask you something. Where did you get the bowl that Zhang Naipao, the demon sect leader, used last time?" Yue Shaoqun asked.
"Ah, last time. I'm really sorry about that, but Young Master Qun, you know that it's not my fault. But since Young Master Qun is here, I can give you a discount to make up for the loss …" Ma Xiaotian thought that Yue Shaoqun was here for revenge, so she quickly explained.
"I'm not talking to you about that, I'm just asking where that bowl came from. Is there any more? "Yue Shaoqun waved his hand and said impatiently," If there is, I'll buy another one! "
"Ah?" Ma Xiaotian was stunned. Buy another one? Why would she buy another one? Hadn't she been cheated enough last time?
"This bowl should be a pair, I'll buy another one, then I'll use one good and one bad to cheat people!" Yue Shaoqun explained. He naturally couldn't show how precious this bowl was. He was afraid that Ma Xiaotian would raise the price.
However, Ma Xiaotian couldn't imagine that there was any secret on this bowl. She didn't doubt Yue Shaoqun's words and only said, "This was obtained by a group of grave robbers. Their shop specializes in selling these kinds of stolen goods, and they sell them by cooperating with big hotels like us."
Ma Xiaotian didn't hide anything. Although Azure Sea Palace also had a backer, it was easy for the Yue family to investigate these things, so it was better to tell Yue Shaoqun! Moreover, among these noble families, which one of them had some illegal business, and they had a tacit understanding not to make a fuss about it.
"Where is their shop?" Yue Shaoqun asked.
"In the East Antique Street, there is a treasure souvenir shop." Ma Xiaotian said, "After you go, find Old Wu, just say that Azure Sea Palace's Ma Xiaotian introduced it."
"Alright, Manager Ma, don't worry, I will often come to take care of your business in the future." Yue Shaoqun said, "At that time, if possible, I will also choose this place for my engagement party!"
"Thank you Young Master Qun for your guidance!" Ma Xiaotian was overjoyed. She knew that Yue Shaoqun was a "gentleman". He usually wouldn't go back on his words, especially on such small matters. If he said he would take care of it, then he would definitely take care of it!
She didn't expect that information about a broken bowl could be exchanged like this. Ma Xiaotian felt that it was worth it! As for the value of that broken bowl, Ma Xiaotian was not a martial artist, so she had no idea.
After Yue Shaoqun came out of the Blue Sea Heavenly Palace, he rushed to the Precious Souvenir Store that Ma Xiaotian had mentioned. When he went to this antique street before, he went to almost every house to take a look. Because this Precious Souvenir Store was selling souvenirs, there were some high quality fakes inside, so Yue Shaoqun ignored it.
Who would have thought that such a place would be a place for grave robbers to dispose of their stolen goods?
Yue Shaoqun parked the car at the door of Zhenzhen Souvenir Store and walked in. Yue Shaoqun drove an Audi A8L today, so when he entered the door, he was surrounded by several salesgirls.
"This handsome guy, what do you want to buy? We have everything here, and the imitations are all very authentic! "One of the shop assistants introduced.
Yue Shaoqun waved his hand and said, "Where's your boss? I have something to talk to him about. "
"Oh …" The salesgirl was a little disappointed. It turned out to be the boss's friend. However, she did not dare to neglect and immediately went to call the boss …
The boss of Zhenzhen Souvenir Store was the leader of a grave robbing gang. He was known as the King of Thieves in the underworld. This person's name was Wang Wei. On the surface, he looked like a slightly shrewd boss.
The salesgirl called Wang Wei over, and Wang Wei greeted him with a smile. "This young master, I wonder why you are looking for me?"
"Let's find a quiet place to talk." Yue Shaoqun waved his hand and said, "I am from the Blue Sea Heavenly Palace. Ma Xiaotian introduced me."
"Oh? Okay, this way please! " Wang Wei pondered for a moment and made a gesture of invitation. He brought Yue Shaoqun to a private room on the upper floor of the store. After closing the door, Wang Wei said, "I wonder why Ma Xiaotian asked you to look for me?"
"Let's not beat around the bush. The goods in Ma Xiaotian's hands, did you provide them?" Yue Shaoqun went straight to the point. He was not in the mood to deal with Wang Wei, so he asked directly.
"What goods? What do you mean? Who are you? " Wang Wei looked very vigilant. He would not directly admit it just because Yue Shaoqun said that Ma Xiaotian introduced him.
"As for who I am, there is no harm in telling you. My name is Yue Shaoqun, a member of the Yue family. Everyone calls me Young Master Qun. Boss, you can call me that too," Yue Shaoqun said lightly.
"Oh?" Wang Wei was stunned. He did not expect that the person in front of him was the famous young master of the Yue family. Yue Shaoqun was very famous among the children of the aristocratic families. He was known as the leader of the younger generation and a gentleman. However, why was he looking for him?
"Did you sell a bowl to Ma Xiaotian? What bowl that Mormon Sect Leader Zhang Naipao used? "Yue Shaoqun did not have the mood to let Wang Wei ponder, so he asked directly.
"What's the matter?" Wei Wang did not admit nor deny it. Even if the person in front of him was Yue Shaoqun from the Yue Clan and not someone from the police force, Wei Wang was still very cautious. This was because he did not know what Yue Shaoqun wanted.
"Is there any more? That bowl should be a pair. After I bought it for someone, my elder still wants it," Yue Shaoqun said directly. He was not afraid that Wang Wei would leak it to Ma Xiaotian. After all, he had set up a trap before. In Ma Xiaotian's opinion, Yue Shaoqun would definitely not tell others about this, so it was reasonable for him to make up a reason.
"Oh, you are talking about that bowl!" After hearing Yue Shaoqun's purpose of coming, Wang Wei suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. "There is no more bowl. In the ruins, there was only one bowl. There is no second one."
"There is no second one?" Yue Shaoqun felt very regretful after hearing this. He had looked around for a long time and finally found the right one, but in the end, he was told that there was only one bowl. This made him a little crazy!
"No more!" Wang Wei said firmly. "If there was, would I not sell it to you? To be able to have a relationship with the young master of the Yue family, this business is definitely profitable. "
Wang Wei did not have any backing. If he could have Yue Shaoqun's protection, at least his stolen goods could enter the circle of aristocrats. Then, it would be safer to sell them.
"Forget it, it's fine." Yue Shaoqun sighed and wanted to leave, feeling a little disappointed.
"Young Master Qun, please wait …" Wang Wei suddenly spoke and stopped Yue Shaoqun.
"Oh? Is there anything else? "Yue Shaoqun was stunned and asked.
"The bowl is gone, but I found a small booklet with the bowl. It seems to be an annotation of some kind of martial arts. I wonder if Young Master Qun is interested?" Wang Wei asked.
"Oh? Martial arts annotation? Bring it over and let me see! " At this moment, Yue Shaoqun was ecstatic, but on the surface, he still pretended to be indifferent. He was a person who was good at hiding his emotions.
"Okay." Wang Wei nodded and quickly turned to leave the private room. He went in the direction of the warehouse.
Yue Shaoqun was very excited. He walked back and forth in the private room. He didn't want to wait any longer. Annotation of martial arts, could it be related to the "Chrysanthemum Treasure Book"? That must be it! It was really a case of wearing out iron shoes in fruitless searching, only to find it by chance!
Soon, Wang Wei returned with a small box in his hand. He walked towards Yue Shaoqun and handed the small box to him. "Young Master Qun, this is it. Can you take a look and see if it's useful?"
"Okay, let me see!" Yue Shaoqun opened the small box and saw a thread-bound notebook inside. He carefully opened it and saw a few words scribbled on it: Grimoire Cultivation Notes.
Grimoire Cultivation Notes? Although it didn't say what grimoire it was, Yue Shaoqun was sure that it was definitely the Chrysanthemum Treasure Book! However, he pretended to be indifferent. He glanced at it casually and said, "What kind of grimoire is this? There's no mantra for martial arts, only the notes. This thing isn't worth much, right? "
"Isn't this just an antique? The value of an antique lies in its age, not in the object itself, right? "Wang Wei was a little disappointed when he heard Yue Shaoqun's words, but he wasn't too surprised.
He was also a martial artist, but his strength wasn't high. Even if he had heard of the Chrysanthemum Treasure Book, it was difficult to associate it with the notes. In fact, even when Yue Shaoqun first received the bowl, he didn't think it was anything good.
Wang Wei originally wanted to sell the notes to a martial artist who knew about it. After all, this thing could only be sold at a high price if sold to the right person. However, it seemed that Yue Shaoqun was right. This was just a note. Without the mantra, it wasn't very useful!
"Oh, since it's a set, I'll buy it back for my elder. Consider it as completing a task." Yue Shaoqun said with waning interest. "How much is it?"
"Five … five hundred thousand!" Wang Wei said after thinking for a while.
"Do you think I'm a spendthrift?" Yue Shaoqun's face immediately turned ugly. He threw the notes on the table and said lightly, "Keep it for yourself!"
"Hey … Young Master Qun, don't be angry. Isn't it all about bargaining when doing business? Why don't you name a price? " Wang Wei sighed. This Yue Shaoqun wasn't that easy to fool. These aristocratic families' children weren't stupid and had a lot of money! It wasn't like what Ma Xiaotian said. They would throw in a million to get rich!
"One hundred thousand. If it's okay, I'll pay. If not, then forget it. This thing is just dispensable to me," Yue Shaoqun said.
"Alright." Wang Wei nodded. In fact, this thing didn't cost anything. One hundred thousand was not bad. This was something that Ma Xiaotian didn't want in the beginning. She only wanted the bowl.
This time, Yue Shaoqun swiped his card and left with the notes. Wang Wei sent him to the door and watched him get in the car. He said, "Young Master Qun, please take care of my business next time!"
