Three o'clock in the morning.
The entire Dacheng County was quiet, but the small courtyard on Yongding Street was bustling with activity.
In the main room, people were drinking and drinking.
Wan Xiaotian was leading his group of brothers and Mazi's group to drink wine in a shouting manner. No one of the two groups was convinced by the other. You drank one glass at a time and I drank one glass at a time. At this time, half of the people fell on the bed and screamed. Huda sleep.
Chu Heng thought it was boring to drink with them, so after just two drinks, he returned to the east room early on the pretext that he had something to do tomorrow. Yan Muze was thinking about the bronzes and left with him.
At this time, both of them were awake, squatting next to the stove and studying the bronze vessels.
"I think these bastards must have used forklift truck techniques to make these objects!" Yan Muze gritted his teeth and held a bronze plate while looking at it, looking bitter and resentful.
Those who play antiques like them hate the group of counterfeiters the most, especially those with such superb skills. Now in New China, if it had been before, he would have dared to gather people and ransack the house of old man surnamed Bao. !
The 'forklift' that Old Man Yan calls is a means of making fake bronzes.
The general meaning is to use the remaining pieces from different old vessels to build a new one, or when a part of the real vessel is missing, use the remaining pieces from other vessels to repair it.
This kind of real and fake method is quite deceptive, and many people and experts have experienced it.
"impossible!"
Chu Heng did not agree with his opinion. He pointed to a room full of bronzes and said, "You want to say that one or two items are possible, but now there are so many items, and he can still be a forklift? Where can he go? How to get so many leftover weapons?"
"How did that mother-in-law do it so realistically?" Yan Muze pulled back his thinning hair with a frown on his face. For a moment, he even wanted to smash the thing to pieces and study it carefully.
But he just thought about it. Chu Heng would be very useful with these things. Not to mention breaking them, he would have to beat someone even if they were broken!
Old Yan frowned and put down his things, rolled his eyes, and encouraged Chu Heng: "Master Chu, how about we arrest the old man named Bao and question him? That old man is so cowardly, I guess he can just scare him." I can put my bottom down!"
"You should stop thinking about this as soon as possible. What I want is a chicken that lays eggs!" Chu Heng immediately warned with a glare.
When he was at the old man's house, he also made some insinuations and wanted to ask about the production methods and problems of these bronzes, but the timid old man Bao had a rare hard time and pretended to refuse to tell him. , saying that this is an ancestral craft, even if you die, it cannot be passed on to others.
When Chu Heng saw this, he didn't ask any more questions. After all, he still expected the old man to make more bronze wares.
"Why!"
When Old Man Yan saw this, he sighed helplessly and said sadly: "I'm really scared, Mr. Chu, if I don't ask what's going on, I won't be able to sleep or eat well!"
"Who knows how many fakes they have made, and do we have these things in our hands?"
"So what if there is?"
Chu Heng stood up, stretched his waist, and said with a strange smile: "Since you can't see it, I can't see it, and everyone can't see it, then it is real!"
What the hell is this?
Old Yan looked at him speechlessly, and for a moment he didn't know how to refute.
Chu Heng looked at the time and saw that it was already past three o'clock. He yawned and said, "Okay, it's getting late. I have to go back to Sijiu City later. Let's go back to the house and sleep."
"Hey, you can rest." The old man reluctantly glanced at the things in the room, and walked out with three steps. At the same time, he secretly planned in his heart that he would definitely find the old man who died when he had the opportunity in the future. Find out!
"Ah sneeze!"
In the small courtyard next to the shantytown, Old Man Bao woke up from his dream after just falling asleep. Then he smacked his mouth in a daze, stretched out his hand to grab his grandson's bird, and fell asleep again.
…
Eight in the morning.
Chu Heng washed up and came out of the house. At this time, Wan Xiaotian and others were still sleeping soundly in the house. The thunderous snoring in the yard gave him the illusion of falling into a pigsty.
He went over and took a look, and saw that the house was in a mess, with vomit everywhere, so he pinched his nose and backed out. In order to hide it from others, he quietly carried the bronzes in the house into the car, and then left a piece of paper. Tiao, told them that he was leaving, and drove directly out of the big city.
When he left the city and reached a deserted place, he put the things in the car into the warehouse, then took out some food, made a fool of himself, and continued on his way without packing.
It was almost two o'clock when he returned to Sijiu City after a long journey.
"We've finally arrived!"
Chu Heng looked at the tall city gate tower in front of him with a tired face, turned the steering wheel, and drove directly towards Little Lihua.
He didn't get much sleep at all last night, and with the bumpy journey, he was already exhausted. Now he didn't want to think about anything but just wanted to go home and have a good rest.
Chu Heng, eager to return home, drove all the way and returned to Xiaolihua in just over 20 minutes.
After parking the car and entering the alley, he was in a bad state and said hello to the neighbors a few times, and soon wandered to the front of his house.
The courtyard door was unlocked, so he opened the door directly and entered the courtyard. He kicked away the two dogs wagging their tails and quickly entered the main room.
Xiao Ni didn't go to work today. When Chu Heng came in, she was sitting on the kang chatting with her eldest cousin. There were a lot of things on the side, including snacks, supplements, and some things sent by that old madman Ying Pingshan. Objects such as brocade and double-sided embroidery.
"You're back, brother-in-law." Seeing him enter the house, the eldest cousin greeted him cheerfully and handed over a big product.
"My cousin is here." Chu Heng nodded with a smile, reached out to take the cigarette, and curiously asked his wife, "Why didn't you go to work today?"
"Shen Tian'er brought the tickets yesterday. Grandpa and the others left at midnight today. I asked for a day off." Xiao Ni looked at him with a gray face, stood up with a distressed expression and walked forward, taking the military coat he took off. : "Sit down and take a rest, I'll get you some water to wash your face."
"Let's wash it later. I'll take a nap first while you chat, cousin." Chu Heng smiled tiredly, said hello to his eldest cousin, then turned around and entered the house. Take off your clothes and get on the bed. The quilt was sleeping soundly.
After a while.
Xiao Ni came in with a basin of warm water, her belly held out, and she came to the bedside with gentle hands. With a tender face, she carefully wiped his feet with a warm wet towel, and then wiped him again. Face.
"belch!"
The eldest cousin who had filled a bowl of dog food at the door looked disgusted and burped, and reminded her silently: "Little sister, wipe your face with the towel you just wiped his feet with. Don't worry about the stains on his face." Athlete’s foot?”
"Ah! I forgot!"
Xiao Ni exclaimed and took back her hand. She leaned over and smelled her husband's face. A strong smell of foot odor penetrated into her nose. She blushed and straightened up. She quickly said to her eldest cousin: "Don't wait for a while." Tell Chu Heng about this!"
"Hehe, don't worry, I won't tell you." The eldest cousin said while suppressing a smile.
"Well!"
Chu Heng, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes and rolled his eyes at his wife. He was too sleepy to say anything, so he turned over and went back to sleep.
I am asleep, not dead!
How can I not hear you making such a big noise?
