The owner of the antique shop was stunned at first, then he sneered.
In this short moment, the owner of the antique shop had calmed down. At the same time, he understood that in this world, not many people would think of using this method to identify the authenticity of this bamboo stone painting. Therefore, he could keep this Bamboo Stone Painting and sell it to other rich people who wanted to be artsy.
The owner of the antique shop looked at Zhang Yang as if he was looking at an idiot. He sneered and said,""Tear apart this Bamboo Stone Painting? Ha, are you still f * cking asleep? I'm not an idiot. Why should I tear it apart?”
"Since you won't tear it apart, I'll help you tear it apart.”Zhang Yang said. He reached out his hands and grabbed the bamboo painting on the counter. With two sharp swipes, he tore it into pieces.
This Bamboo Stone Painting was originally created by Zhang Yang when he was drunk. If it was for someone who liked to collect calligraphy and paintings, Zhang Yang would not destroy it. However, if there were any unscrupulous merchants who wanted to use it to cheat people and make huge profits, then Zhang Yang would not let it remain in the world no matter what.
" You... you actually dared to tear it up..." The owner of the antique shop was dumbfounded. He had never thought that Zhang Yang would be so bold as to snatch the Bamboo Stone Painting and tear it up right in front of him.
Looking at the torn bamboo and stone painting, the antique shop owner was furious. He shouted at the two workers in the antique shop,""What are you guys still standing there for? Beat him up! Beat him to death!"
When Zhang Yang tore the [Bamboo Stone Painting] into pieces, the two young shop assistants in the antique shop had already approached him from both sides. When they heard the boss of the antique shop, they immediately raised their fists and charged at Zhang Yang.
The two assistants in the antique shop should have rich fighting experience. First, they wore iron fist rings on their fists. Second, they were very familiar with each other. It was obvious that they had been fighting on the streets for many years.
"This idiot, how dare he come to my shop and cause trouble! Beat him up! Beat him to death!”The owner of the antique shop roared and took out a metal rod from under the counter. He was about to jump out and join the fight with Zhang Yang. In his opinion, Zhang Yang was a skinny man with thin arms and legs. He was obviously an otaku who lacked exercise. It was impossible for him to stop the two experienced fighters under him.
It was precisely because this was a sure win that the owner of the antique shop would personally join the battle with his iron rod. He wanted to vent his anger because of Zhang Yang.
However, just as the owner of the antique shop was about to jump out from the counter, Zhang Yang, who had been standing still, suddenly moved.
as still as a virgin, as swift as a rabbit.
When she saw Zhang Yang suddenly turn around, a sentence flashed across her mind.
Zhang Yang took a step forward with his left foot and arrived in front of the shop assistant who was charging at him from the left. He reached out with both his hands and grabbed the shop assistant's wrist. With a light shake, the shop assistant's wrist was dislocated with two crisp cracking sounds. However, Zhang Yang's attack did not stop there. His hands continued to move upwards, and with a series of 'kacha' sounds, he forcefully broke the arms and elbows of the shop assistant.
The waiter's two arms were hanging limply by his sides, looking very strange.
At the same time, the other shop assistant had already rushed behind Zhang Yang. He raised his fist with the iron fist ring and aimed it at Zhang Yang's temple. Even though Zhang Yang's back was facing him, it was as if Zhang Yang had eyes on the back of his head. He could see every single movement of his.
Just as the fist was about to hit Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang ducked his body and dodged the fist. At the same time, he turned around quickly and reached out his hands at lightning speed. He used the same trick and dislocated the joints of the waiter's hands.
Zhang Yang's understanding of human bones and joints was undoubtedly at the level of an expert. It was a piece of cake for him to remove the arms of these two guys.
Just as Zhang Yang was removing the arms of the two workers, the boss of the antique shop had just climbed up the counter. The sudden scene in front of him was obviously beyond his expectations. He was shocked and could not help but feel a little scared. Lying on the counter, he did not know what to do.
Zhang Yang ignored the two workers who were screaming in pain. He turned around and walked to the counter where the owner of the antique shop was leaning against.
Although he had a metal rod in his hand, the boss of the antique shop had already lost all his courage. He did not have the courage to fight back at all. When he saw Zhang Yang walking towards him, he quickly threw the metal rod in his hand into the counter. He tried his best to squeeze out a fawning smile on his face, hoping that Zhang Yang would be magnanimous and let him go.
"You should be punished for losing your integrity in business.”Zhang Yang ignored the currying smile on the face of the antique shop owner and said something that made the owner's hair stand on end.
Just as the owner of the antique shop was about to defend himself, he saw Zhang Yang's right hand reaching out to him.
It was over.
The owner of the antique shop thought of the tragic experience of his two assistants and couldn't help but feel sad. He was so scared that he closed his eyes.
A sharp pain suddenly came from his back.
What surprised the antique shop owner was that the pain was not severe. It was like being pinched by a big ant, which was completely different from what he had expected…
"This…is the so-called punishment?”The owner of the antique shop was surprised and secretly opened his eyes to see what was going on. However, what surprised him even more was that when he opened his eyes, Zhang Yang had already turned around and walked out of the antique shop.
The antique shop owner was confused. He did not understand why Zhang Yang would let him off so easily. However, he was obviously unwilling to accept this favor. Instead, he was thinking about how to take revenge.
The girl was still in shock.
Just as the boss and the two workers were about to beat Zhang Yang up, the girl quickly took out her phone from her handbag and was about to call the police. However, what happened next happened too quickly and surprised her. This seemingly ordinary otaku had actually easily defeated two burly waiters.
Could it be that this otaku had practiced martial arts or mixed martial arts before?
The girl was surprised, but she finally came back to her senses. However, Zhang Yang had already walked out of the antique shop. "Wait for me."
The girl didn't even think and hurriedly chased after him.
The dispute in the antique shop had already attracted many onlookers. So, when the girl chased him out of the antique shop, she was surprised to find that Zhang Yang had already disappeared without a trace. However, she was also a tough person. She took a stool that was placed by the door and stood on it to look around. She actually saw Zhang Yang's back in the crowd.
The girl jumped off the stool without saying anything. She parted the crowd and chased after Zhang Yang.
By the time the girl caught up to Zhang Yang, panting heavily, he had already reached the end of Chu Street. He was about to walk out of this street that was famous for its antiques.
"I really have to thank you for what happened just now. If you hadn't told me that the Bamboo Stone Painting was fake, I'm afraid I would have already bought it.”The girl thanked Zhang Yang sincerely and said,""To be honest, I don't know much about antiques. I only wanted to buy that Bamboo Stone Painting because my grandfather's birthday is coming up and he likes antique paintings. However, he did not expect that the painting was actually fake. Fortunately, you reminded me. Otherwise, if I really gave it to Grandpa as a birthday present, I'm afraid I would be laughed at by the other relatives in the family.”
Zhang Yang smiled and said," Don't be so polite. It's just a piece of cake."”
The girl did not agree with Zhang Yang's words. She shook her head and said seriously,"Not only did you save me from financial losses, but you also saved me from the embarrassing situation of being laughed at by my relatives. How can I not be grateful to you? By the way, you seemed to be looking at jade in that antique shop just now, right? Why? Was there no one that caught his eye?”
Zhang Yang laughed and shook his head,""No, all the things sold in that antique shop are fake.”
"How about this, I'll give you this piece of jade as a thank you for your help.”As she spoke, she took out an emerald green oval jade pendant from her handbag and stuffed it into Zhang Yang's hands. She smiled and said,"I can guarantee you that this jade pendant of mine is definitely real jade and not fake!”
With Zhang Yang's sharp eyes, he could tell if the jade pendant was real or fake at a glance. Not only was the jade not fake, but the quality of the jade was also pretty good. However, he didn't accept it. Instead, he declined,"This jade pendant is indeed authentic, and the price won't be low. However, I can't accept your gift.”
"Who said it was useless? If it wasn't for you, my loss would have been far more than just this jade pendant.”When the girl saw that Zhang Yang wanted to return the jade pendant to her, she quickly took two steps back and said,""I will never take back what I have given out. I've already given this jade pendant to you. If you don't want it, you can throw it into the trash can, but you can't return it to me.”
Throw away this jade pendant? Zhang Yang could not bear to part with it. "Alright then, I'll accept this jade pendant.”Zhang Yang placed the jade pendant into his pocket.
"That's more like it." The girl laughed.
The jade pendant was indeed very expensive, so Zhang Yang decided to help her with another favor.
"I heard you say that you wanted to buy that Bamboo Stone Painting because you wanted to give it to your grandfather as a birthday present, right?”
"Yes, my grandfather likes to fiddle with antique calligraphy and paintings.”The girl nodded and replied. Then, she sighed in disappointment and said,"Unfortunately, I finally found a painting that my grandfather liked, but it was fake. Sigh, if it wasn't for my grandfather's birthday being next Monday, I would have gone to Beijing's Panjiayuan to take a look…This time, I'm afraid it'll be very difficult for me to find a birthday present that my grandfather likes.”
"Oh, I see." Zhang Yang nodded and said,""How about this? As a reward for giving me this jade pendant, I'll handle this birthday present for your grandfather.”
"Really? That's great!" The girl was overjoyed and almost cheered. It seemed that she had been tormented by this matter recently. Otherwise, she would not be so agitated. "I'll leave this matter to you. I believe that with your eyesight, you'll definitely be able to find a genuine treasure. It's just that time is a little tight. There are only four days left until next Monday…"
"It won't take four days." "Tomorrow, you can come to Suqian College's hospital to find me and get the birthday present for your grandfather."”
"Can I get it tomorrow? That's great!" This news made the girl extremely excited. She said happily,"How much does this birthday present cost? Tell me. Tomorrow, I will give you this money without a single cent missing. I will definitely not let you suffer a loss.”
Zhang Yang laughed and shook his head,""I don't need money."
"You don't need money?" The girl was stunned and looked at Zhang Yang in surprise.
"Yes, I don't need money." Zhang Yang smiled and nodded." You and I are fated. Consider this as a gift from me. If you want to talk about money, you are too polite."”
When she heard Zhang Yang mention " fate ", she could not help but suspect that he was trying to get close to her in such a way. However, after seeing the sincere expression on his face, the girl couldn't help but feel ashamed of her second guess."Someone offered to help me out of goodwill, but I still doubted him. Is it really because I've schemed too much that I'm no longer willing to trust others?”
Sticking out her tongue, the girl blushed and said,""This…How can I do this? Although I don't know much about antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, I know that these things are expensive. You've already helped me so much today. How can I ask you to spend more money?”
Zhang Yang smiled and said," Alright, this matter is settled. Remember to come to the school hospital to look for me tomorrow. I still have something to do, so I'll be leaving first."”After saying that, Zhang Yang turned around to leave.
" Hey, wait…" The girl did not expect Zhang Yang to really leave. She was stunned for a moment before she called out to Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang stopped in his tracks and turned around to ask,""Is there anything else?"
"You haven't had dinner yet, right? Why don't I treat you to a meal?" This was the first time the beautiful lady had taken the initiative to invite a man to dinner, so she was a little nervous.
If anyone who knew the girl saw this scene, they would definitely be shocked and unable to believe what they were seeing. Because, with her beautiful face and high status, the girl was never short of bees and butterflies. These bees and butterflies were undoubtedly rich and powerful young men, but to these people, she had never shown them any mercy. But now, she actually took the initiative to invite an ordinary man to dinner. If such a thing were to spread out, it would probably make many people's jaws drop.
However, something even more shocking was yet to come.
"No need for today. Let's talk about it in the future.”Zhang Yang shook his head and rejected the girl's invitation.
The girl stood rooted to the ground, unable to come back to her senses for a long time. She had never expected that the first time she invited a man to a meal, the result would be so unexpected. She could not help but wonder if she had heard wrongly. However, when she saw Zhang Yang's back, she knew that she did not hear wrongly. This ordinary-looking man had really rejected her invitation.
Is my charm that bad?
The beautiful lady was very depressed.
Seeing Zhang Yang's back getting further and further away, the beautiful lady did not have the time to be depressed. She quickly stood on her tiptoes and put her hands on both sides of her mouth to shout, asking,"Hey, I still don't know your name.”
Zhang Yang did not even turn his head around. He raised his right hand and replied,""My name is Zhang Yang."
The beautiful lady muttered his name twice in a low voice and then said,"My name is Wang Xiaoqiu. Remember my name.”
Zhang Yang still did not turn around. He only raised his right hand and waved it, indicating that he had heard her clearly.
"What a strange person." Wang Xiaoqiu shook his head and said softly as he watched Zhang Yang disappear into the crowd.
Just a few minutes after Zhang Yang and Wang Xiaoqiu left the antique shop, six burly men wearing Chu Street security uniforms, with a face full of muscles, violently parted the crowd and walked into the antique shop.
When the six security guards saw the two waiters who had their arms taken off and the owner of the antique shop who had already come down from the counter and was panting heavily on a stool, a trace of surprise flashed across their faces. They hurriedly surrounded the owner of the antique shop and asked,
"Boss, what's wrong with you?”
"What happened? Is someone here to cause trouble?"
"Who the f * ck is so bold to come to our boss's shop and cause trouble? Where was that person? Where did he go? I'll kill him!"
"Damn it, why are you idiots only here now? I've lost all my face today!”The owner of the antique shop was furious. He cursed and told the six security guards what had just happened.
At this moment, the six security guards had the same identity as the two workers in the antique shop. They were all the underlings of the owner of the antique shop.
The owner of the antique shop was not a legitimate businessman. He had always been in the underworld and was a slightly famous big brother. Ever since his debut, he had committed almost all kinds of crimes, such as prostitution, drug gambling, collecting debts, hiring assassins, and hacking people. This antique shop was also collected from an antique merchant who had been tricked by him and won all his money. Before this, there were indeed some real antiques in this antique shop. After selling the real goods, he tasted the sweetness and simply sold the fake goods as the real ones to make a bigger profit. In any case, the customers who came to his shop were basically all snobs who wanted to learn from others after they had a little money. As long as he had these so-called appraisal reports, he did not have to worry about being seen through.
However, in order to prevent his peers from causing trouble, and at the same time to prevent those who had bought fake goods from causing trouble, he simply used his connections and money to arrange for a few of his subordinates who could fight to be security guards in the west street of Yong City. It was convenient for them to rush over in time to help when something happened.
After listening to the story of the antique shop owner, the six security guards were instantly enraged. They all cursed,
"F * ck, someone actually dares to come to Boss's shop to cause trouble. Isn't this f * cking courting death?”
"Boss, don't worry. We'll go after him now. We won't let that guy escape.”
"When we catch up to him, we must beat him half to death and avenge you, boss!”
The six agitated security guards turned around and rushed out of the antique shop to chase after Zhang Yang.
" Wait!" The owner of the antique shop suddenly stopped them.
The six security guards quickly stopped and turned around to ask,""Boss, is there anything else you want us to do?”
The owner of the antique shop pointed at the two waiters who had their arms cut off and said,""You guys don't know that bastard who came to cause trouble, but the two of them know each other. Take them and chase after him, and teach that bastard a lesson. Oh, right, don't beat him up in a crowded place. The police have been a little strict recently. If you get caught by the police, it won't be good. I remember that there is a remote dead end nearby. Think of a way to drag that bastard there and beat him up. It would be best if he could remove one of his hands or feet and leave him with a permanent memory!”
"No problem, Boss. Don't you feel at ease with us brothers handling things? We'll go after that kid now!" The six security guards nodded in unison. They pulled two poor workers who had their arms and legs dislocated and rushed out of the antique shop, chasing after Zhang Yang.
"You little bastard, you actually dared to come to my shop and cause trouble. You even dared to humiliate me. Watch how I kill you!”After the six security guards left, the owner of the antique shop sneered. In his opinion, even if Zhang Yang had some martial arts training, he would not be able to defeat the six security guards who were experienced in street fighting.
