The four people ran in four directions, conveying the message to the people following them: We have to take action!
If someone really follows them all the way, in addition to calling for reinforcements to help, they must also keep an eye on the main target at all times.
Among these four people, the one who needs the most attention is none other than Lin Yi.
He is the core of the team. As long as he doesn't leave, others shouldn't be able to make much of a splash.
So he chose to wait where he was and see what medicine the other party was selling in his gourd.
Just before everyone dispersed, Lin Yi and Wang Qiang conducted an analysis of the surrounding observation points.
Most of the surrounding B&Bs are bungalows, some of which are two-story buildings. There are parasols in front of coffee shops. There are basically no condescending and excellent observation points.
In addition to the bar, there are various Internet celebrity shops next to it, with people coming and going.
In addition to stores, if there are tourists stopping but not spending money, it will be very awkward.
After looking around, in addition to the milk tea shop diagonally opposite and the small shop selling flower cakes, tambourines and live music, it is a more suitable observation point.
Lin Yi now only needs to scan these two points from time to time, and then find the person who keeps looking towards him.
There was an endless stream of tourists around him. Wukong was sitting on the table eating nuts, attracting many passers-by to stop and watch and take photos.
Everyone wants to watch the excitement, but if someone only stares at people but doesn't have much interest in this rare marmoset, you can basically judge the other person's identity.
Sure enough, in the milk tea shop diagonally opposite, through the glass exterior wall, Lin Yi could clearly feel a pair of eyes glancing this way from time to time.
Several times of eye contact, intentional or unintentional, he deliberately avoided.
He must be right.
When there were fewer people around him, Lin Yi simply waved to the other side.
It means, stop hiding, I have seen you.
The person opposite was caught by Lin Yi, and he immediately felt that he had made a mistake, but now he had no choice but to go over and say hello.
Not long after, a dark-skinned and thin young man walked out of the milk tea shop.
Wearing a sun protection suit, a peaked cap, jeans, and sneakers, he looked inconspicuous.
Crossing the street, he sat across from Lin Yi.
He took off his hat, straightened his hair, and smiled at Lin Yi, showing his white teeth.
The cheekbones are slightly high and the forehead is slightly raised. He looks like he is a local and has a certain ethnic minority ancestry.
"any drinks?"
Lin Yi handed over the water bill on the table.
"No need, I brought my own."
As he spoke, he took out a thermos cup from the bag behind him, unscrewed the lid, and poured out a cup of fragrant Pu'er tea.
"Try?"
"No thanks."
Lin Yi smiled and waved his hands, then extended his hands to gesture with each other.
"Do we know each other?"
The young man shook his head.
"Then why are you following us?"
"I want to cooperate with you."
After speaking, he picked up the lid of the cup and took a sip of tea, then stared at Lin Yi.
"Cooperate? Then you must know what we do! Does the home need to check Feng Shui, find auspicious soil, or find a ghost house to house the deceased?"
"No, we just want to do business with you."
Lin Yi smiled and scratched his head, then reached out and gently stroked Wukong's back.
"What I'm talking about is business, and that's what we do. Or do you want us to help you bring goods? Sell fruit and agricultural products? That's okay. Although we haven't brought goods in our live broadcast room, we can help you. We are quite happy to help with this aspect of farming.”
The young man opposite smiled.
"Boss Lin, we are all smart people. You don't need to say certain things clearly, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other party took a piece of jade carving from his hand and placed it in front of Lin Yi.
This piece of jade is about the thickness of an adult's index finger. It is a type of glass, with a strong water content and exquisite carving, fully revealing the advantages of the raw material.
The shape is like an old wild ginseng, and the carving is lifelike.
Lin Yi could tell the special nature of this thing at a glance.
First of all, ginseng is not common in the southwest. It is mainly distributed in the northeast, especially the Changbai Mountain area, and wild ginseng is the most precious.
Therefore, this type of vessel is definitely not made by craftsmen from southern Yunnan.
Secondly, the charm of this thing is wrong. It has a strong earthy smell and a gleaming gleam. At first glance, it looks like an artifact that was scavenged from the ground.
Moreover, living people rarely use ginseng as the subject of handles. Those who can afford such funerary objects must have an unusual status.
To sum up, the person opposite should be considered a peer.
As for which sect they belong to, it is still unknown.
"This piece of jade is really nice, and the carving is beautiful. It's really a rare good thing. But I'm not very interested in jade. I won't accept it. You'd better keep it."
Lin Yi pointed to the jade handle on the table, pretending not to understand what the other party said, and deliberately changed the subject.
"Boss Lin, please stop being modest. Let's all be more decisive. This time our boss is eyeing a deal from next door. If Boss Lin is willing to reward us and make a fortune together, the cost will be easy to negotiate."
"Next door? Next door is not peaceful recently. I heard that if you go there, you will lose your waist, and you will be hung up and beaten, forcing you to engage in electronic fraud. We are all good citizens who abide by the law. We must not touch this kind of business."
Lin Yi pretended not to understand what he said, continued to talk about other things, and put the topic aside.
The young man opposite smiled and put away the jade pieces on the table.
"Our boss also appreciates Boss Lin's craftsmanship and knows that Boss Lin has always been very cautious. However, it doesn't matter. In business, once you get used to it, you will get familiar with it. We just need to deal with him a few more times. I will let Boss Lin see our work." Sincerely.
No need to interrupt, I wish Boss Lin a happy trip to southern Yunnan! "
After that, he put away his thermos cup, closed the lid, bowed slightly to Lin Yi, turned around and left.
Lin Yi also smiled back and watched him leave.
After a while, he sent a message to the group to ask about the other three.
The three of them all said that they had not found any signs of being followed, and the other party should have only sent one person out this time.
"Okay, come back. I've already met him. According to my judgment, he shouldn't be from the southern faction, but a bit like a local 'peer'.
Let's go back to the B&B first and ask the two gentlemen about the situation here. "
After sending the message and patting himself on the shoulder, Wukong jumped up and sat firmly.
When Lin Yi put his cell phone into his jacket pocket, he took out a business card from his pocket.
Today, he and Qian Sheng received a business card from a taxi driver. He stuffed it into his jacket pocket, but the card was made of coated paper.
Now by the touch of my hand, I can clearly feel that this is a metal card.
