Zhuo Yu's gym was located in a very good location, near two high-end areas. Many people came to the gym, and the price was also relatively high. Of course, the decoration, equipment, and coaches in the gym were also very good, worthy of the price, and it also gave people a very comfortable feeling.
After looking around, Chu Xiang applied for an annual card. Zhuo Yu wasn't there, so she asked a coach about the basic fitness activities and began to exercise. She sweated in the gym all morning, and if it weren't for the spiritual energy in her body, she wouldn't have been able to hold on for so long.
Zhuo Yu and his good friend Liang Jun came to the gym, and the two of them changed their clothes and walked to the treadmill. Liang Jun provoked, "How about we compete in each of the events today? The one who loses the most will add 20,000 words. "
"Boring." Zhuo Yu habitually glanced at the gym, and when he saw Chu Xiang, he raised his eyebrows in surprise and walked towards her.
Liang Jun followed behind him and chattered, "How is it boring? Isn't it boring if you don't bet? Where's the power exercise? Eh? Where are you going? "
Zhuo Yu walked in front of Chu Xiang and smiled gently, "Sister Chu, why didn't you call me when you came over?"
Chu Xiang stopped pedaling the elliptical machine and picked up the towel around her neck to wipe her sweat, and smiled, "Mr. Zhuo. I just wanted to work out, and I thought you were busy, so I didn't want to disturb you. Your place is very good, and I just applied for an annual card, and I plan to come here often to exercise in the future. "
"Then I'll give you a fitness schedule."
"Okay, thank you. I mainly want to lose weight and build my body, and most importantly, I want to restore my health and exercise my heart and lungs. Do you have time to talk now? "
"Yes, let's talk in the lounge." Zhuo Yu let Liang Jun exercise by himself, and took Chu Xiang to the lounge.
Liang Jun watched the two of them walk away, and then he sat on the elliptical machine, took out his phone, and found the recently popular post in the forum.
He looked at the photo in the post and muttered, "Wow, he's a celebrity."
After Chu Xiang left, he immediately ran to the resting area and bumped into Zhuo Yu with his shoulder. He smiled and said, "You're really something. When did you get to know this female author? Why didn't you mention it? "
Zhuo Yu pushed him away in disgust and looked puzzled. "What female author? Who do I know? "
"Just now, let me see what her name is …" Liang Jun swiped through the post and pointed at the screen. "Yes, Qingxiang Chu Yun!"
He looked at Zhuo Yu's expression and widened his eyes. "Don't tell me you don't know that she's a female author?"
Zhuo Yu shook his head. "Why are you so surprised? I really don't know. A few days ago, my grandmother was hospitalized and happened to be in the same ward as her. You also know that my grandmother is very warm-hearted and loves to chat with others. Didn't we get to know each other? Today is the second time I've seen her. She's here to exercise. "
"That's really a coincidence. The person you met in the hospital is an author. It's fate." Liang Jun's eyes lit up. It was really too much of a coincidence. The main reason was that it was quite difficult to meet a fellow author in life. This kind of fate was a little strange.
Zhuo Yu rolled his eyes at him. "We just know each other. What does what she does have to do with us? Do you still want to exercise? Let's go. Let's not waste time. I still have to go home in the afternoon to write. "
Liang Jun followed behind him and said, "You don't like to read the forums. I'll tell you. This Qingxiang Chu Yun has been a celebrity in our online literature circle recently. There's a guru in the female genre who plagiarized and used her fans to attack her online. She even dug out her home address and took photos of her and posted them everywhere. Now, this matter has blown up and is out of the circle. Many people are laughing at her. At least you know her. Don't you want to know more? "
"Plagiarized?" Zhuo Yu stopped in his tracks and frowned. Any author was very sensitive to this word and especially hated it. He asked, "Do you have a hammer?"
"Yes, it's there. It's a palette. The hammer isn't hard. But I haven't read their works, so I don't know. Now, many people are waiting for Jinjiang to judge. A few female genre gurus are standing in line to convict Qingxiang Chu Yun. It looks like even if Qingxiang Chu Yun didn't plagiarize, they don't plan on letting it go. "
Zhuo Yu nodded. "Then let's wait and see the results. If she really plagiarized, we'll stay away from her in the future. Come, warm up. "
Liang Jun was quite a gossipy person. He wanted to ask more about Chu Xiang's situation, but Zhuo Yu had just met Chu Xiang and didn't know anything. It was impossible for him to confuse what he knew with others. This made Liang Jun feel very regretful.
However, due to their disgust towards Xia Wushuang's online exposure and human exposure, they hoped that Chu Xiang was innocent. This kind of bullying was the most shameful thing.
Chu Xiang still didn't know that she had met two colleagues. She left the gym and went to eat before going to the antique street.
This was the capital. The antique street was very lively and the prices were very expensive. It was very difficult for people who liked antiques to pick up a bargain here. However, Chu Xiang was currently short of funds. She hired Internet trolls, lawyers, and a gym card. She only had a little more than 10,000 yuan left.
There were many ways to earn money, but the way to earn money was very good. She was now a weak woman with poor health and no background. The fastest and most reliable way to earn money was to pick up a bargain.
After all, she was the number one businessman in ancient times in her previous life. She had seen countless good goods and had the ability to distinguish between real and fake antiques. She planned to look at the antique street in the capital. If she couldn't find anything, she would go to other cities to look.
Chu Xiang wore a pair of glasses and a mask and strolled slowly on the antique street. She saw a lot of very delicate fakes and also very expensive real goods. The merchants were very smart. They all set a high price for the suspected real goods to avoid losing money. It was really hard to find. She wandered from the street to the end but still couldn't find anything.
Chu Xiang sighed silently. It seemed that it was more reliable to go to other cities to look. She was about to leave when she suddenly saw a man quarreling with the shop owner.
"I won't buy it. This thing of yours is worth at most 500 yuan. Why do you have to sell it for 8,000 yuan? Do you think I'm a fool? Why don't you go to other shops and ask them who will buy it? "
"Are you crazy? I just asked a few more questions. Who wants to sell it to you? This is a real one. It was passed down from my grandfather. What's wrong with selling it for 8,000 yuan? If I wasn't in a hurry, I wouldn't sell it for 8,000 yuan! "
Chu Xiang walked a few steps towards them. The two of them were still quarreling. They didn't want to give in to each other. Chu Xiang saw that the man was holding a palm-sized pink round box. It was engraved with not particularly exquisite patterns. The whole thing looked a little rough. But Chu Xiang's sharp eyes saw a little mark on the side of the powder box. It was the royal mark of a dynasty.
She waited patiently for a while. When the man walked away angrily for a while, she quickly caught up with him and shouted, "Sir, please wait a moment. I'm very interested in your powder box. Can I have a look?"
The man was stunned. He looked back at her and said unhappily, "Miss, are you messing around? Do you also buy antiques? "
Chu Xiang was wearing cheap goods from the stalls. It might be 200 yuan in total. She didn't fit in with the other people on the antique street. It was not strange that she was stared at.
Chu Xiang stepped forward and said, "I just like this powder box very much. I want to take a closer look. If it's to my liking, I'll buy it."
The man hesitated. He held the powder box and opened the lid for her to see. "This was passed down from my grandfather. You know that era. Where did my grandfather get such a fake thing? This is definitely a real one. I also know that this thing is not exquisite. It doesn't cost much. It's only 8,000 yuan. 8,000 yuan is definitely worth it for you to buy an antique. It might even be worth more. If you want it, just transfer the money. If not, don't waste my time. I don't have to sell it. "
Chu Xiang took the powder box and looked at it carefully for a few minutes. After confirming that this was the powder box used by the Empress, she said with certainty, "It's really beautiful. I like it very much. Let's transfer the money through WeChat."
"Ah? You really want to buy it? Okay, you send it to me. "The man was afraid that she would change her mind and immediately opened the WeChat transfer code.
Chu Xiang transferred 8,000 yuan to him and he left. He found this thing in the warehouse at home. It didn't look exquisite at all, but it was quite simple.
He checked it on the Internet. Some ordinary things in ancient times were not worth much, even if they were antiques. He set the price of this powder box at 2,000 yuan in his mind. Today, he came to test the depth. He was not surprised to hear that the shop's price was 500 yuan. He didn't expect to meet a girl who didn't play with antiques to buy it.
The old thing was exchanged for 8,000 yuan. The man was still humming when he drove away.
Chu Xiang took the powder box and chose the largest antique shop. The previous shop owner didn't know the value of the powder box. Naturally, there were people who knew the value of the powder box. This antique shop had a deep background and a good attitude. They wouldn't look down on the things brought by the guests. After knowing the purpose of Chu Xiang's visit, they asked a master to come out and check the powder box.
The master saw the powder box at a glance. If it was real, it was very valuable. He asked Chu Xiang to drink tea and wait for a while. He called two other masters to appraise it with him. The final appraisal result was that this powder box was worth eight million yuan!
Chu Xiang didn't bargain with them. She left the antique street quickly after the transaction. After this trip, she had eight million yuan in her bank account. She had solved another problem.
When she went home, she noticed that there were five girls at the gate of the district. She came back by taxi. She asked the taxi to send her back. No matter whether those girls were here to spy on her or not, she couldn't continue to live here. It was too annoying to deal with this kind of thing often.
The environment of the gym was very good. The security system of the upscale district was also better. Chu Xiang planned to move there directly. She found an agent. She knew her housing requirements and asked the agent to find more houses for her.
The agent was very fast. After a while, he sent her several links so that she could see the general situation and photos of several houses on the rental software. She selected three houses and made an appointment with the agent to see the houses.
After that, she continued to pack her luggage. Although the original owner lived alone, she had a lot of things. Many of them were not used at all. Chu Xiang packed all the things she didn't need into a cardboard box. She was going to donate them.
When everything was packed, it was already late at night. Chu Xiang was lying on the bed and nourishing her body with Reiki. She was thinking about what kind of story to write in the new novel. Half an hour later, her exhaustion disappeared, and she fell asleep peacefully.
She had to solve another problem soon. After moving, she would welcome a new life. She would say goodbye to the gray past and only have a wonderful future.
