Chapter 179 178. Past Events

Wang Gui had a bad temper and wanted to leave on the spot.

Of course, when he said he was quitting, he definitely didn't mean quitting his job, but rather switching to another company that runs the antique business.

He has been in this line of work for so long and has gained considerable fame, so there is absolutely no problem in him changing to another related company.

Du Chuan still didn't feel much about this, as he wasn't short of people, but he was actually a little curious about what was going on between them.

"Lao Wang, don't be so bad-tempered. Let's talk nicely." Liu Lifeng held him and said.

Wang Gui glared at Uncle Ge and said, "What else is there to say? I can't possibly work with someone like that. It's shameful."

Lou Yu was a little at a loss. The new leader had just come today and caused such a thing. He didn't know what to do for a moment.

The main thing is that although he is nominally the leader of Liu Lifeng and Wang Gui, in reality he has no control over these two people at all.

At this time, Uncle Ge took a deep breath and slowly said, "Wang Gui, what happened back then is not what you think."

He actually didn't want to explain, and even more so didn't want to explain to Wang Gui. If it weren't for Wang Gui and the others, he wouldn't have ended up like this.

It’s just that Uncle Ge didn’t want to make things difficult for Du Chuan, and it was also a way of giving Du Chuan an explanation.

After all, Wang Gui had already said words of betrayal to his teacher and ancestors. If he didn't give an explanation, Du Chuan probably wouldn't trust him.

In fact, at the beginning, Du Chuan was going to hand over this unit to Liang Gang, but Liang Gang gave it to Uncle Ge, after all, Uncle Ge was Liang Gang's master.

Before Wang Gui could speak, he was stopped by Liu Lifeng. Then he heard Liu Lifeng say, "Well, you tell me, this matter is also a thorn in our hearts. I have investigated a lot over the years, but it is like seeing flowers in the fog. I can't see the truth of the facts clearly."

Wang Gui was anxious, "Old Liu, how can we believe his words?"

"I can't even listen to it."

"Okay, Ge Mingquan, I want to see what you can say."

Uncle Ge was in no hurry to recount his past events, but sat down at the table first, and Du Chuan and the others also took their seats.

Then, Grandpa Ge said, "Someone gave two valuable national treasures to our master and asked them to help hide them. Is that correct?"

Liu Lifeng nodded, and Wang Gui sneered, "So you became greedy, killed your own master, and stole two national treasures."

Du Chuan was slightly stunned when he heard this. It seemed that the things here were even more exciting than he had imagined, and it even involved murder.

But if you think about their age and the environment they are in, killing is not something that is difficult to understand.

Of course, these were just what Du Chuan was thinking, and he had no intention of speaking out loud.

Not only him, Liang Gang was the same at this time, sitting aside and listening silently.

Uncle Ge's expression dimmed a little, but he still said, "I didn't kill the master. I didn't mean to kill him at the time. I just knocked him out."

In their line of work, they deal with the lowest class of people every day, and they know a little about many things, including drugs.

Wang Gui wanted to speak more, but was interrupted by Liu Lifeng, "Listen to what he has to say first."

Wang Gui suppressed his anger, kept a sullen face and said nothing.

Uncle Ge didn't even look at him and slowly told him everything.

He described it in great detail, probably specifically for Du Chuan to hear so that he would understand.

To put it bluntly, the reason why Uncle Ge told all this was for Du Chuan to hear.

Now he has the opportunity to go back to his old business, and he is the owner of ten stores, so he naturally doesn't want to go back. He doesn't really want to stay in the scrap recycling station until he dies, but he had no choice before.

Now that I have the opportunity, I naturally don’t want to stay there any longer.

As Uncle Ge continued to tell the story, Du Chuan finally understood the whole story.

During the war years, the country was in danger and many capable and righteous people stood up to defend their country.

In such an environment, many cultural relics were stolen and destroyed by invaders.

Especially those beastly Japs, they are even more cruel and insane.

The master of Uncle Ge and his friends was well-known in the entire antique world at that time, and had good connections in both the white and black worlds.

At this time, someone came to them and entrusted two national treasures to them.

"But I discovered their secret. They actually made two imitations. The kind that ordinary people can never tell."

"I originally thought that they wanted to better protect the two national treasures. Even if they were discovered, they could cover it up with replicas."

"Or maybe he got greedy and wanted to embezzle the national treasure."

When making these two guesses, Uncle Ge looked calm, and he did not seem moved even when he heard that his master had embezzled national treasures.

Even Wang Gui and the others were the same. It was obvious that they all knew what kind of personality their master had.

"But they are my masters after all, so I didn't think much about it."

"But suddenly one day, I found that my master was actually connected with those beasts. Then I became suspicious and carefully collected information, but I found that they wanted to sell the two national treasures to those beasts."

When he said this, a look of pain flashed across Uncle Ge's face.

"Impossible! No matter how bad they are, they would never do such a thing." Wang Gui stood up and glared at Uncle Ge, as if he was about to take action.

"It's fine if you betrayed your master and ancestors, but at this time, you actually framed me."

Uncle Ge ignored his meaning and continued, "I didn't believe it at the time, but when they brought the beasts back at night to check the national treasure, I discovered it."

"Two nights later, I saw them sneaking over again, ready to trade."

"You know what happened next. I knocked them out and stole two national treasures."

"But in the end, Master and the others still died. It should be those beasts who killed them."

After saying this, Uncle Ge said nothing.

Liu Lifeng suddenly seemed to have lost all his energy and collapsed on the chair.

"It is true." Liu Lifeng murmured.

Wang Gui was angry, "Old Liu, do you really believe what he said? He is talking nonsense."

Liu Lifeng smiled bitterly and said, "What he said should be true."

"I have actually had doubts in my heart over the years, especially since my master suddenly seemed like a different person and became suspicious."

"The most important thing is that my master has the habit of writing a diary. You should know this. I found his diary. Although it doesn't clearly point out, there are some clues."

"According to the information I have collected and investigated over the years, what he said should be true."
