Chapter 24: Meeting Wang Kaixuan, Grave Robbing Finally Begins.
"Priest Zhang, thank you very much for today. I won't say anything more. Come, let's go!”
In a hotpot restaurant in Old Beijing, Wang Kaixuan raised his glass to Zhang Ziyang enthusiastically.
"Alright, I'll make friends with you!”The wine glasses clinked. Zhang Ziyang couldn't give Wang Kaixuan face, so he also took a glass and drank.
"Priest Zhang, you're really awesome today. You can actually beat so many people alone. One look and I can tell that you're a martial artist! I, Lord Fatty, have never admired anyone except Hu Bayi in my entire life. You are one of them today, but you will be my brother in the future. Come, let me give you another toast!”
Fate was indeed a very wonderful thing. Some people could only nod their heads at each other after knowing each other for a lifetime, while some people could become best friends when they just met.
Zhang Ziyang wanted to go with Wang Kaixuan on the next expedition, so he deliberately wanted to get close to Wang Kaixuan. After a few glasses of wine, Wang Kaixuan gradually became more talkative. Without Zhang Ziyang asking, he began to talk about his glorious deeds. Among them, there was naturally one name-Hu Bayi.
Zhang Ziyang just listened quietly and echoed a few words from time to time. From Wang Kaixuan's appearance, it could be seen that he hadn't had such a good time in a long time. He hadn't been living comfortably in recent years, or else he wouldn't have developed the habit of being greedy.
During the conversation, Zhang Ziyang also told them about his own situation. It was nothing more than a successful cultivation on the mountain, and he came to Beijing to see the world and try his luck.
After learning that Zhang Ziyang had just left the mountain and had no place to live, Wang Kaixuan patted his chest and took him in. Although Wang Kaixuan had some small problems, he was definitely a very loyal person. Zhang Ziyang also went with the flow and followed his arrangements.
"Ah, Kaixuan, you're here too. Have you thought about the jade pendant?”Just as Wang Kaixuan was speaking enthusiastically, a sudden voice interrupted his interest. Zhang Ziyang focused his eyes and saw a short man with a greedy aura walking in. The iconic golden tooth in his mouth also revealed his identity-Big Golden Tooth.
From Big Golden Tooth's eloquent and shrewd appearance, Zhang Ziyang could judge that this person was definitely an expert who had been in Panjiayuan for a long time. Whether it was his qualifications or cultivation, he was very profound.
"It's Big Golden Teeth. I have something to do today. We'll talk about the jade pendant another day!”Wang Kaixuan waved his hand impatiently. Being interrupted made him rather unhappy.
"Don't, Kaixuan. There's no time like the present. I'll pay 300 yuan. How about it?”It had to be said that Big Golden Tooth was very good at dealing with people. With just a few words, Wang Kaixuan was somewhat moved.
"Brother Kaixuan, can I see the jade pendant?”Zhang Ziyang naturally knew the details and value of the jade pendant.
"Who is this lord?" Big Golden Tooth finally noticed Zhang Ziyang and asked.
"I am Zhang Ziyang, a friend of Wang Kaixuan!”Zhang Ziyang smiled and said to Big Golden Tooth.
"Big Golden Teeth, let me tell you, this Taoist Priest Zhang is not an ordinary person. He is a Taoist master with amazing skills. Don't look down on him.”Wang Kaixuan took out the jade pendant and started to brag for Zhang Ziyang.
"Ma San and the other six strong men were knocked down by Priest Zhang with just a few punches and kicks. They might still be lying in the alley and unable to get up!”
"Oh, Priest Zhang is really well-hidden!”Big Golden Tooth narrowed his eyes slightly and sized up Zhang Ziyang again. Although Wang Kaixuan must have exaggerated, the fact that Zhang Ziyang defeated six strong men alone should not be fake. Moreover, looking at his leisurely appearance, it was obvious that he did not take it to heart. Moreover, he also knew Ma San and his gang. Because of this, he could not understand Zhang Ziyang.
"It's easy to say. It's just some fist and leg martial arts. It's difficult to enter the elegant hall.”Zhang Ziyang said as he looked at the jade pendant that Wang Kaixuan handed over.
"However, brother, your bid is a little unkind. Brother Wang's jade pendant can be sold for at least ten times more!”After a long time, Zhang Ziyang raised his head and looked at Big Golden Tooth with a faint smile.
"What? Ten times?" When Wang Kaixuan heard that, he immediately stood up and glared at Big Golden Tooth angrily." So you're trying to trick me? You're really something!"”
"Hey, look at what you're saying. That's what antique trading is all about. If you're wrong, you can't blame others. However, since Priest Zhang is also an expert, let's pretend that I didn't say anything. Let's just treat it as making friends.”
Big Golden Teeth once again showed Zhang Ziyang how experienced he was in dealing with people. In a short sentence, he not only brushed aside the matter of the jade pendant, but also talked about friends with the two of them, leaving Zhang Ziyang speechless.
"Alright, I see that you, Big Golden Tooth, are also a wonderful person. Let's sit down and have a drink together!”Zhang Ziyang did not reject people like Big Golden Tooth. Instead, he invited him readily.
"Hmph, I'll make sure you eat until you're broke today. I'll let you know if you still dare to cheat me in the future!”Wang Kaixuan was still angry and said unhappily.
It had to be said that it was easier for men to make friends at the wine table. After a few glasses of wine, the three of them gradually became familiar with each other. After Big Golden Tooth drank three glasses of wine as punishment, Wang Kaixuan also completely threw the matter of the jade pendant to the back of his mind. Instead, he was attracted by Big Golden Tooth's story about the antique business.
"What? A broken urinal earned 60,000 yuan just by selling it?”Wang Kaixuan suddenly shouted in disbelief.
"Hey, Kaixuan, you better keep your voice down. You can't let me know about your brother's family background!”Big Golden Teeth quickly suppressed Wang Kaixuan and gestured for him to lower his voice.
"Brother Kaixuan, you don't know this. The antique business usually doesn't open for business for three years, and it takes three years to open for business. What Master Jin said just now was just superficial. Those who can survive in this business are not ordinary people, right, Master Jin?”Zhang Ziyang finished the wine in his cup and said.
"Hey, you flatter me, Dao Master. I'm just trying to make a living!”Big Golden Tooth chuckled, but his expression was rather smug. He was indeed very confident in his craftsmanship.
"Hey, that's much better than selling tape!”Wang Kaixuan's eyes rolled as he muttered to himself, seemingly thinking of something.
Zhang Ziyang smiled but didn't say anything. It was obvious that Wang Kaixuan was moved. He was not a law-abiding person. It turned out that Hu Bayi's journey to the Gold Hunting Lieutenant was not without his urging. It was just that it was brought forward now.
The meal lasted for two hours before it ended. The three of them had a good time and could be considered to have made friends. They had a good meal and left their contact information before leaving. Zhang Ziyang naturally followed Wang Kaixuan to his residence.
"Come, Priest Zhang, come in. This is where I live. You can make do here first. The conditions are simple, so don't mind!”Wang Kaixuan brought Zhang Ziyang in and laughed.
"Alright, I won't stand on ceremony. However, I still have to pay the rent!”Zhang Ziyang took out a stack of old yuan and handed it to Wang Kaixuan. He had just pawned a mechanical watch. Although there were mechanical watches in this era, they were incomparable to the craftsmanship of the previous world in terms of workmanship and aesthetics. Moreover, the watch that Zhang Ziyang pawned was given to him by Lu Linglong, so it was naturally sold at a sky-high price.
"Hey, Priest Zhang, you're being too polite. How about this? I'll be responsible for providing a place to stay, and you'll be responsible for our food.”
"Alright, let's do that!"
"You're indeed a straightforward person.”In a few words, the two of them had clearly defined their respective roles, and their relationship had also taken a step forward.
In the following days, Zhang Ziyang would follow Wang Kaixuan out to sell the tape. It was all to get closer to the two of them. The two of them became more and more familiar with Big Golden Tooth. Zhang Ziyang also understood Big Golden Tooth's thoughts from his words.
It turned out that Big Golden Tooth valued Zhang Ziyang's skill and Wang Kaixuan's generous character, and wanted to encourage the two to do grave robbing. At this time, the grave robbing skills passed down from the old people had long been lost. Now, grave robbing was basically done by some laymen who broke into the tomb. In Big Golden Tooth's opinion, Zhang Ziyang and Wang Kaixuan were just right.
Fatty naturally had his own plans in mind, but he was still hesitating until one day he received a letter.
"Priest Zhang, this is great. My brother Hu Bayi is coming back!”
