Under One Person: Starting from the Inheritance of Gods

Chapter 423 We're thinking, we're not gods of wealth!
Yanjing, Panjiayuan.

At this moment, Big Gold Tooth was enthusiastically promoting his antiques, while the other party, blond and blue-eyed, was clearly a foreigner. Standing next to him was a half-baked translator who knew very little about the subject.

"It's true, I'm not kidding you. These are two famous Gods of Wealth in our land. If you can bring them home, I guarantee you'll become rich within two years."

The foreigner looked at the translator, bewildered.

The translator, speaking with a Beijing accent, said, "God of wealth, symbolizing a lot of money, have it, and you can become very rich."

The foreigner nodded: "Wealth comes from all directions, I like it!"

Big Gold Tooth glanced at the translator.

The translator's eye twitched. He glanced at the so-called God of Wealth, then looked at Big Gold Tooth with a resentful expression, and said helplessly, "He really likes this pair of Gods of Wealth!"

So you didn't say a word about "wealth coming from all directions"!

Big Gold Tooth immediately beamed with joy.

To further inflate the price, he pressed his advantage, pointing to the characters on the hats of the two Gods of Wealth and giving a thumbs-up, saying, "Do you see these characters? Hey, peace under heaven, wealth upon seeing them, this is absolutely a good omen!"

"It's extremely rare; even among the God of Wealth statues, it's a top-tier, priceless treasure!"

Yes, who worships the Black and White Impermanence as their God of Wealth?

I reckon even if Xie Bi'an and Fan Wujiu saw this, they'd have to say, "We're not gods of wealth, we don't have that responsibility!"
Seniors, we've made something of ourselves!

Besides, managing the flow of money in the world is Zhao Gongming's job, how could we dare to try and extort money from him!

The translator, standing nearby, truthfully replied: "World peace, and seeing wealth!"

"Good, very good!"

"They are so beautiful!"

The foreigners exclaimed in surprise.

It's just that foreigners don't understand Chinese culture. Big Gold Tooth fooled them like they were his grandsons. If someone else were to sell them the Black and White Impermanence, you'd think they wouldn't beat you up!

A pair of Black and White Impermanence figures, which were just fabricated last week, were sold to Big Gold Tooth for a price of 30,000 dollars.

The foreigner happily carried the Black and White Impermanence away.

Once it was done, it didn't even take half an hour.

The translator is back.

Big Gold Tooth skillfully pulled out ten thousand dollars and handed it to the translator.

The translator counted the money, then put it in his pocket and said, "Next time, can you come up with something more respectable? Good heavens, you've turned the Black and White Impermanence into the God of Wealth. Aren't you afraid they'll come after you later?"

Big Gold Tooth said nonchalantly, "Hey, you don't understand. Foreigners love things that are different and have unique flavors."

“A few days ago, I sold my old chamber pot, which was still covered in yellow stains, to a Japanese person, claiming it was a unique tea set from our China.”

"Guess what? After that Japanese guy bought it, he was so excited that he brewed a pot of tea on the spot, drank it all down, and even savored the taste, saying it was delicious and had a rich historical and cultural flavor."

"What a waste of that one-yuan jasmine tea!" Big Gold Tooth said with a regretful expression.

At that moment, the translator, who was drinking tea, almost spat out his mouthful of water.

"Brother Jin, I must say, you really know how to have fun!"

Big Gold Tooth said smugly, "If he weren't Japanese, I wouldn't have tricked him. When China was on the verge of collapse, so many treasures were taken away by them. And now they're coming back? Bah, grandma!"

Then, Big Gold Tooth pulled out a few bills, pointed his thumb in a certain direction, and said, "Three years without business, but one big win feeds us for three years. I've made a small fortune today, all thanks to you for running around for that foreigner for half a month. Quanjude, it's on me!"

"Okay, shall we go?"

"Let's go!"

However, before the two could even step out the door, they were surrounded by people, one in front and one behind. "Gentlemen, have I offended you?"

With two people supporting him, Big Gold Tooth's legs immediately went weak, and he begged for mercy repeatedly.

The two men, one dressed in black and the other in white Zhongshan suits, took out small notebooks with official stamps from their pockets, opened them, and showed them to Big Gold Tooth.

"Xie Bi'an, Fan Wujiu?!"

"The Ancient Chinese Legends Mysterious Creatures Research Institute? Never heard of it!"

Big Gold Tooth was still thinking that he had just finished selling Black and White Impermanence, and now Black and White Impermanence had come knocking on his door. Was he being punished?

"Our research institute was only recently established, so you probably haven't heard of it, but you should recognize the red stamp on it, right?"

Xie Bi'an spoke coldly, waving his little notebook in front of Big Gold Tooth, who immediately cried out in protest.

"I'm operating legally, just doing some small business. I haven't done anything illegal or disorderly. At most, I've just fooled some foreigners. I've even generated foreign exchange for China. You can't wrong an innocent person like me!"

Fan Wujiu then laughed and said, "It's you, that's right. You are the talent that China needs. Do you want to advance?"

"Progress? What progress?!"

Big Gold Tooth glanced at the red stamp on the little notebook with a timid and snobbish look, then suddenly closed his eyes.

I dare not get involved!

After all, his lineage was inherently flawed, and any investigation would confirm it.

Fan Wujiu laughed, then released the translator and, as if picking up a chick, dragged Big Gold Tooth to the jeep.

"Come with me!"

TRAIN STATION.

Old Hu and Fatty had just reunited and were excitedly embracing each other when they were suddenly surrounded by a group of people.

The fat man frowned and stood in front of Hu Bayi, cupping his fists and asking, "May I ask, gentlemen, what's the matter?"

"Is it Buddha? Fighting cockroaches? Squeezing through train doors? Or killing pigs? We two brothers haven't provoked you for no reason, have we?"

The leader immediately laughed: "So you think we're pickpockets."

Then, it was the same old routine again.

Looking at the notebooks handed to him by those people, Hu Bayi couldn't help but have a complicated expression.

"So, you want us brothers to join this 211 Institute, right?" Hu Bayi asked, as if he were the backbone of the two of them.

“That’s right. And if you refuse, I believe someone will have a good talk with the two old men and try to persuade them.”

The "old man" here naturally refers to the elders of Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang.

Upon hearing the other party's tough attitude, Hu Bayi knew that what was going on was definitely not a small matter. Although he had just returned and did not want to get too involved, what could he do? He was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze!

In terms of the purity of thought, he is no less than anyone else.

"Alright, gentlemen, we brothers will go with you!"

And so, Hu Bayi was immediately recalled to the unit as soon as he got off the train, with a seamless transition in his organizational structure.

Even Hu Bayi had to remark, "It's pretty smooth!"

Compared to Hu Bayi's worries, Fatty Wang was more excited. After all, he had been selling cassette tapes, and now he finally had a proper job, even with a China Central Television (CNC) license. He was overjoyed.
