Time passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Wei Cheng and the other three had returned home.
Thirteen days have passed since this 'retreat', and Wei Cheng plans to return to the Three Kingdoms Space and Time tomorrow.
As a result of this retreat, Wei Cheng specially prepared a new set of equipment, intending to give Longxiwei a major upgrade.
As soon as the three of them arrived at Longcheng Airport, Wei Cheng saw a familiar figure standing in the pick-up area.
"Third uncle?!" Hua Qingyu looked doubtfully at the middle-aged handsome uncle who came to pick him up at the airport.
Wei Cheng and Mu Mu were also stunned. They had collaborated with Uncle Hua Qingyu several times. Wei Cheng’s gold ornaments and jade were able to sell for sky-high prices, thanks to Uncle Hua’s connections and circle of friends. .
Hua Wencheng touched Hua Qingyu's head, smiled and stretched out his hand to Wei Cheng, and after they shook hands, he said: "Little friend Wei, I'm here this time because I have something personal to ask of you. If possible, please help me as much as possible."
The third uncle of the Hua family was in the antique circle. When he was young, he was a well-known dandy in Longcheng. He often made Mr. Hua angry. Now he has given up and started collecting by relying on his family connections, and he is also very popular. Water rises.
Wei Cheng had previously exchanged 15 cloth tickets for a piece of Lantian warm jade the size of a watermelon from a mountain man. Thanks to the connections of Uncle Hua Sanshu, he sold it for a sky-high price of nearly 10 million, so the two of them had a certain degree of trust. intersection.
Hearing that Uncle Hua wanted to ask her for help, Wei Cheng couldn't help but look at Hua Qingyu who was standing aside. He also looked confused when he saw Hua Qingyu. Apparently he didn't know why his third uncle suddenly acted like this.
"Third uncle, please tell me, as long as I can help, I will do my best." Wei Cheng hesitated for a moment and then agreed.
After all, others have helped me a lot. As long as it's not too much, I can help him if I can.
Hearing this, Hua Wencheng happily pulled Wei Cheng into the waiting Maybach. As for Hua Qingyu and Mu Mu, they sat in the Rolls-Royce Cullinan arranged by the company and followed obediently.
Two luxury cars drove onto the Ring Expressway one behind the other.
Wei Cheng took the champagne glass from Hua Wencheng and said 'thank you'.
Hua Wencheng also poured a glass of champagne himself, and then said straight to the point: "Actually, you should have guessed it. To be honest, I came here for the jadeite stone you gave to the old man, or to be more direct, I came here for the jadeite stone you gave to the old man. It came from your channel.”
Wei Cheng was stunned, "Shall I give it to the old man?"
Hua Wencheng opened his mouth and suddenly said with a smile: "Oh, I misunderstood. It was given to Qingyu by my little friend, but the old man had his beard cut off. I have to say that the jadeite stone is really the best of the best. Although It has not been polished, but its ornamental value and collection value are no less than the jade Guanyin sold in Shanghai last year."
Wei Cheng was a little impressed by the news and said with a smile: "That piece of jadeite Guanyin was sold for a sky-high price of 146 million."
Hua Wencheng took a sip of champagne, nodded and said: "My friend, are you paying attention too? That's right, your rough stone is also Laokeng Imperial Green, and is larger in size. Its value is no less than the Jade Guanyin. If you leave it to me, it will be at least 1.5 100 million."
While Hua Wencheng was speaking, he had been observing the changes in Wei Cheng's expression. When he saw Wei Cheng narrowing his eyes, he knew something was going to happen.
Sure enough, Wei Cheng took a sip of wine, tilted his head and said to Hua Wencheng: "Third Uncle, actually I still have a lot of high-quality jadeite stones in hand. How about we make an appointment and you can help me taste them?"
Wei Cheng didn't hide his head or deliberately conceal it. Anyway, the old jade pit that Zhang Fei discovered would have to be cashed in sooner or later. Instead of doing it himself, he might as well ask Hua Qingyu's third uncle to help him. Big deal Let him take more commission.
However, Wei Cheng underestimated Hua Wencheng. He didn't care about the measly commission or agency fee. What he wanted was channels that others didn't have, and I, Hua Wencheng, not only had it, but I could also produce high-quality Laokeng Imperial Green.
At his level, collectors no longer care about money, but reputation, connections, and face are the most important things.
If Hua Wencheng hadn't accidentally seen the raw jade stone in the old man's study this time, he still wouldn't have known that his niece's friend had such a strong channel background.
You must know that with the continuous mining of Laokeng in Myanmar and Vietnam, the high-quality Laokeng jadeite is getting worse year by year. This is related to the improvement of consumer standards and the malicious hoarding of capital. Anyway, the raw stone of Laokeng Imperial Green is Almost extinct.
Hua Wencheng knows many master sculptors, and these people also know many wealthy people. However, due to the lack of high-quality rough stones, some transactions that could have been facilitated have been delayed.
If Hua Wencheng delivers a large amount of rare jadeite to his door at this time, he will earn not only money, but also the favor and face of these big shots, which is much more important to him than money.
Hearing that Wei Teng still had a large amount of raw jade stones, Hua Wencheng turned around excitedly and said, "Little friend, please don't fool me."
Wei Cheng recalled it and felt that the supply ship going south should have returned to Dahan. It would take overland transportation from southern Jingzhou to Luoyang in seven or eight days at the fastest, and he thought it would arrive in about the same day.
"Let's see, on the second day of February, the dragon raises its head. At about that time, I will have someone send a batch of rough stones. Then my third uncle will help me with the product. It would be even better if I can find a buyer. I happen to be in need of money recently. of."
Hua Wencheng didn't expect Wei Cheng to be so efficient. February 2 was only more than half a month, so he could still afford to wait.
"Okay, then let's make an agreement. When the time comes, I will bring a few nationally famous jade masters to support you."
When Wei Cheng heard this, he rolled his eyes. Speaking of Master Yuzuo, there should be many master-level figures in the Three Kingdoms time and space. Looking back, he can ask Mr. Jin to recruit among the people.
That night, Hua Wencheng personally took care of Wei Cheng and the others. This third uncle Hua was indeed a former dandy. There was no one he didn't know in Longcheng. He introduced many local famous people to Wei Cheng over a meal. The big boss.
When he learned that Wei Cheng was a master of traditional Chinese medicine and had a lot of rare medicinal materials such as tiger penis and century-old ginseng, Hua Wencheng was even more shocked and speechless. He pulled Wei Cheng and insisted on asking him to help him make a tiger penis and bring it back. .
Wei Cheng was made to laugh and cry by Uncle Hua. Finally, he actually agreed to help him get a tiger whip, but it had to be made with wine. After all, if the thing was fresh, it would be too much punishment.
A night of silence.
When he got up the next day, Wei Cheng kissed Mu Mu goodbye and left home with a big backpack on his back.
Mu Mu stood in the yard and looked at Wei Cheng who was walking away. Hua Qingyu didn't know when she came to her side.
"Mumu, why don't you ask what this guy is doing outside?"
When Mu Mu heard this, she shook her head with a smile and said, "He said he went into the mountains to collect herbs and liked the feeling of returning to nature. I believe him."
Hua Qingyu curled her lips and wanted to say something, but thinking about Wei Cheng's ex-girlfriend Ye Zhixin, it seemed that she was dissatisfied with Wei Cheng's lazy temperament and finally broke up with Wei Cheng.
Looking back now, Yeats did not lose too much. Wei Cheng relied on the resources left by his grandfathers and is now prosperous. Not only is he unique in the field of Chinese medicinal materials, he also occupies the high-end market, including jewelry. The field cannot be underestimated either.
And I heard from Mu Mu that Wei Cheng has been secretly engaged in charity work, often purchasing winter clothes, old grain, combs, mirrors and other things on a large scale, presumably to provide warmth to needy households in the mountains. From this point of view, this man is quite Not bad.
What the two of them didn't know was that the man they thought was supposed to go to the bus station to take a bus out of the city turned a corner, hid in the bushes, and disappeared.
···
Three Kingdoms time and space.
Wei Cheng changed into Hanfu and a mink cloak in the warehouse, and the old god appeared in front of Cai Yan.
Seeing Wei Cheng, Cai Yan rushed towards him with tears in his eyes.
When Wei Cheng saw this, he hurriedly shouted: "No, be careful about the child in your belly."
Cai Yan didn't care so much. In just over ten days, she had already missed him so much that she couldn't let go of Wei Cheng. She was hanging on Wei Cheng's body and couldn't get down.
After learning that Wei Cheng had ended her retreat, Hao Niang, Xie Yu, and Zhong Chan rushed back as soon as possible.
The three women all have their own things to do, and it is not because they have to stay at home to raise their children after marrying Wei Cheng.
Wei Cheng also encouraged them to do what they wanted to do. No matter from which point of view, it is better for women to get busy with something than to stay at home and think about it. What Wei Cheng is most afraid of is that the drama of Gong Dou will happen to her. On women.
Therefore, he supports Hao Niang's career, supports Xie Yu to continue to train palace female guards, and supports Zhong Chan to teach music theory at Heluo College. Even if he is a powerless teacher, it is better than being an idle little woman at home. many.
As for Cai Yan, she is busy enough with a lot of things in the harem, so she is not called "Mrs. Jun" for nothing.
Wei Cheng looked at the girls, greeted them fondly to sit down, and said: "I have made a lot of new beauty creams for you during this retreat, as well as some pills that are good for your body. You must take them on time in the future. ,beneficial."
Hearing this, Zhong Chan said excitedly: "There is another beauty cream. Hurry, take it and hide it first, but let the aunts share it again."
Everyone covered their mouths and laughed. Cai Yan pulled Zhong Chan to sit down and said, "Okay, don't make a fuss. They want to give some of the plaster away. If you really want to hide it and use it yourself, how can you use it all?" ."
Zhong Chan was speechless and retorted: "Who said I can't use it all? I apply it three times a day. If not, I apply it six times a day."
Cai Yan stretched out his hand and pinched her tender little face, and joked: "Your little face is already so cute. If you don't believe me, why don't you ask your husband to touch it for you?"
Zhong Chan was startled when he heard this and looked at Wei Cheng expectantly.
Wei Teng coughed slightly in embarrassment and looked at Cai Yan angrily. He looked around and said, "If the aunts also want these plasters, you can give some of them to them. I have prepared a lot this time. It should be enough for a while.”
Ignoring Zhong Chan's resentful gaze, Wei Cheng turned to Hao Niang and said, "I haven't taken a bath in a few days. Let them boil more water tonight. I want to take a good soak in the hot water to feel comfortable. "
Cai Yan and the other three looked at the shy Hao Niang.
Cai Yan and Xie Yu had aunty smiles on their faces, while Zhong Chan was a little jealous and resentful.
Hao Niang blushed with embarrassment and did not dare to look directly at Wei Cheng. She nodded and agreed softly.
Seeing this, Zhong Chan didn't understand. She pursed her lips, snuggled into Cai Yan's arms, and said, "Really, why do you have to wait for eighteen? The place where I should be big is not smaller than yours." , Aunt Niu said I must be a good childbearer."
Cai Yan covered his mouth and giggled: "You, you still have to wait, you are only seventeen after the Chinese New Year." As he spoke, he reached out and patted Zhong Chan's buttocks, making the girl's eyes full of coquettishness.
Wei Cheng glanced at Hao Niang, coughed slightly in embarrassment, and said, "It's okay, you guys just chat for now, I'll go take a look in front, I don't know if those people have caused any trouble during the days I've been in seclusion. "
Hearing this, Xie Yu raised her embroidered eyebrows, pulled Wei Cheng to the door, and said in a deep voice: "Husband, you don't know yet. A few days ago, many people in the court proposed to terminate the expedition plan, saying that this was too laborious for people and money, and was against the law. Tianhe."
"Oh?" Wei Cheng sneered. Sure enough, there are people who can't change the habit of eating shit.
What wastes people and money, what goes against the harmony of nature, do you really think that someone in my defense doesn’t read history books?
"Since you like dancing so much, I will add some fire to you and make you dance more cheerfully."
Wei Cheng narrowed his eyes. He just happened to have purchased a lot of big guys this time. They all say that political power comes from the barrel of a gun. I want to see who is desperate and wants to die.
···
Qingzhou, come east.
After more than half a month of rushing slowly, Liu Fan and his party finally arrived at their destination.
Spring is not far away at this time, a lot of ice and snow have begun to melt, and the water is gurgling in the mountain streams, which is just right for a rest.
The wisps of green smoke are particularly conspicuous in the snow-white mountain forest, and their whereabouts can be clearly spotted even from dozens of miles away.
Not to mention Xu Shu standing on a high hill, holding a telescope.
"It looks like they are going to spend the night here tonight. Let's take a rest as soon as possible."
Sima Yi and others behind him looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
A big man took out a lunch box from his backpack and operated it briefly. Steam came out of the lunch box, but there was no open flame.
This is a self-heating lunch box specially prepared by Wei Cheng for the secret guards. He is worried that the secret guards will not be able to eat a hot meal after tracking the target for a long time. This shows how much Wei Cheng attaches importance to his own people.
Several people ate hot self-heating meals and looked around with binoculars from time to time, for fear of alerting others.
"Governor Xu, Mr. Sima, your heating patch should have lost its effectiveness. Hurry, replace it with a new one."
Xu Shu and Sima Yi happily ate the self-heating rice with pickled meat and vegetables. When they looked up and saw the warm baby in the man's hand, they couldn't help but marvel at the magic of Wei Cheng's methods.
This time when they went out with the secret guards, they not only saw self-heating lunch boxes, but also experienced the magical heating patches. Not only that, but there was also a magical sleeping bag that when used with the heating patches, they didn't feel cold at all even if they spent the night in the wild.
Xu Shu took the heating patch, put two pieces on the lining of his stomach, and sighed: "Every time Mr. Wei comes out of seclusion, magical things come out. I heard that this time Mr. Wei said he would go into seclusion for more than ten days. It’s been a long time, and I don’t know what kind of strange things have been discovered.”
Sima Yi's admiration for his master deepened, and he said proudly: "Based on the results of master's past retreats, after this retreat, there must be something amazing that will shock the world. To be honest, I already regret being with you." Get up in Qingzhou."
Hearing this, Xu Shu burst out laughing, "Don't forget, you promised yourself in front of Lord Wei that you would get to the bottom of everything."
Boom~
At this moment, an all-too-familiar explosion sounded in the forest.
Xu Shu and Sima Yi stood up and looked over at the same time. As expected, it was Liu Fan and his party who caused the problem...
"It seems they have found Xu Fu's secret hiding place!" Sima Yi was overjoyed.
