Guo Yunshen's Descendant
At this moment, the young man saw that Shen Xu did not seem to have picked a book he liked.
He couldn't help but say,
"Boss, these books are genuine treasures. They are all my family heirlooms!”
The young man looked very strong and muscular, like an athlete. He sat on a rock by the roadside.
However, his eyes seemed a little empty, as if he had something on his mind.
When Shen Xu heard the young man's words, he asked,
"Since these books are your family heirloom, why are you selling them?”
Hearing Shen Xu's words,
The young man said sadly,
"I was also forced to do so. Logically speaking, these books were left behind by our ancestors and should be properly kept.”
"But my mother suddenly fell ill and needed surgery. My father passed away a few years ago, and I didn't have that much money. Thinking that the books at home were worth some money, I set up a stall to sell books to treat my mother's illness.”
Only then did Shen Xu know that the young man had such a story behind him. However, there were many scammers in the antique shop, so Shen Xu did not comment on it.
Then, he asked cautiously,
"Then how much do you plan to sell these books for?”
The young man was stunned. He did not expect Shen Xu to really buy these books.
To be honest, the young man only wanted to sell the book to raise money to treat his mother's illness. He really did not think about how much he wanted to sell it.
The young man stammered,
"This... I really don't know the price. I just want to sell these books to raise money for my mother's treatment.”
This time, it was Shen Xu's turn to be stunned. This was the first time he had seen someone who didn't know the price when doing business.
Looking at the young man's honest appearance,
If this was a liar, Shen Xu felt that even an Oscar was not worthy of his acting skills.
Shen Xu pondered for a while and asked the young man,
"Oh, then how much does it cost for your mother to see a doctor?”
"The doctor said at least 500,000." When the young man said this, his voice gradually lowered and his face turned gloomy. He also knew that 500,000 yuan was not a small amount.
Shen Xu weighed the value of these books in his heart. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said,
"It's impossible for you to sell these books for 500,000 yuan. The most I can offer is 100,000 yuan!”
When the young man heard Shen Xu's words, his expression turned even worse. He muttered to himself,
"A hundred thousand? 100,000 yuan isn't enough to treat my mother's illness. What should I do?”
Shen Xu nodded secretly when he heard the young man talking to himself. Martial artists like him were usually not bad. They did not take the opportunity to raise the price at this time, but they still had to observe further.
Looking at the strong young man in front of him, Shen Xu suddenly had some other thoughts.
After thinking for a moment, Shen Xu continued,
"Don't be anxious. How about this? I'll go to your house with you to see your mother later. If the situation is true, I'll help you pay the 500,000 yuan!”
"These books are priced at 100,000 yuan. I'll lend you the remaining 400,000 yuan. Write me an IOU and return it to me when you have money in the future.”
Shen Xu was not a good person.
He had been influenced by his grandfather since he was young and had seen many traps in the antique circle.
On one hand, Shen Xu was only lending money to the young man because he pitied him and wanted him to work for him in the future to pay him back.
On the other hand, he felt that although he had the system and could directly learn Old Guo's martial arts, he could buy these books and use the martial arts of other sects as a reference.
To learn kung fu, one had to learn from others. Perhaps in the future, Shen Xu could form his own faction!
Regardless of whether the young man was telling the truth or not, Shen Xu would definitely make a profit from this book, the "Book of Form and Will Fist".
These books were useless to most people, but in the eyes of martial artists, they were priceless!
Since this kind of thing had happened, it was not impossible to help Shen Xu under the premise that he had the conditions.
Shen Xu only wanted to live up to his reputation!
When the young man heard Shen Xu's words, he became excited.
His calm demeanor had disappeared. His breathing was rapid, and his face was flushed.
She stood up and grabbed Shen Xu's arm tightly. She said anxiously,
"Is what you said true? Are you willing to lend me 400,000?"
Shen Xu felt that his arm was hurting from being pinched. The corners of his mouth twitched as he said,
"Be gentle, you're hurting me!"
When the young man heard this, he let go of Shen Xu's arm and said incoherently,
"I'm really sorry. I'm too…too excited!”
Shen Xu felt the pain on his arm. He lifted his sleeve and saw that his arm was bruised.
With such great strength, this young man should be a martial artist.
Thinking of this, Shen Xu gritted his teeth and asked,
"You have such great strength in your hands. You must be a martial artist. What kind of martial arts do you learn?”
The young man scratched his head and said embarrassedly,
"Yes, I have been practicing martial arts since I was young. I have learned the Xingyi Five-Element Fist that was passed down from my ancestors.”
Inherited kung fu?
Shen Xu was a little suspicious when he heard the young man's answer. He thought of the scene he saw in the video just now.
Shen Xu had some guesses in his heart, so he asked,
"Ancestor is?"
"Guo Yunshen!" The young man replied seriously,
This young man was Guo Yunshen's descendant!
"What about these books?"
Shen Xu continued to ask,
"These books are the martial arts of various sects copied by my great-grandfather after my ancestor challenged the martial arts masters of various sects in the pugilistic world and won!”
Shen Xu was enlightened. He finally understood why only the "Book of Xingyi Fist" was the real thing among all the books.
When ordinary people heard the young man say this, they would definitely think that the young man was bluffing.
However, Shen Xu had the system and knew that the young man in front of him was telling the truth!
However, what he did not expect was…
Guo Yunshen was a grandmaster of his generation, but his descendants had fallen to such a state.
Speaking of which, he was unlucky. In this society, what was the use of knowing martial arts?
The current martial arts world was plagued by internal and external problems. The people in the underworld felt that Chinese martial arts were just some routine and did not have any real skills.
Moreover, there were still Taekwondo from Korea, Karate from Japan, and so on for people to choose from. For various reasons, Chinese martial arts gradually declined.
Now that we're in a society ruled by law, so what if we can fight?
Even being a bodyguard required professional knowledge, not just because you could fight.
The situation was like this, and this was not something that could be changed by human strength.
Thinking of this, Shen Xu said to the young man,
"Put away the stall. Keep these books first. We'll go to your house later. If what you said is true, I'll take all these books.”
The young man nodded in agreement.
Next,
Shen Xu helped the young man clean up the stall, put the books on the cart, and walked in the direction of his house with the young man.
