Chapter 138 National Treasure Antique
"Auntie, I'll go back and ask my relative who is a Chinese medicine practitioner to prepare some medicines for you. I think it should help your disease." Mo Liming said without thinking.

"That's really thankful for you! You young man is so kind-hearted. If my stubborn illness is cured, I will be spared the greatest torment." Mr. Dao's wife thanked excitedly.

Mo Liming said with a smile: "You are welcome, it's just a matter of raising your hands. I just hope that you are all in good health."

In this way, the two grabbed the topic and chatted. Fu Yihong, who was sitting next to Mo Liming, watched this scene, and she was very happy in her heart. It would be great if she could get closer to Madam Dao.

Before this, Fu Yihong really didn't expect that Mo Liming won Madam Dao's favor as soon as she came up and opened her mouth. It was blunt, and the two of them were silent after talking, and there was nothing to say.

Who knew that he, Mo Liming, would be able to listen to what he liked, and immediately arouse the interest of the other party, so it seems that there is something behind the scenes.

Originally, Fu Yihong was very disappointed when she saw that Yin Kui was the first to board. Basically, there was nothing to look forward to. Since Yin Kui came prepared, he must have done enough work. Any preferential conditions will be offered, and for the seller Of course, the more preferential treatment the better.

After chatting eloquently for a while, Mrs. Dao suddenly said with a smile: "You guys are going to stay here for dinner later. It's time for dinner now. I'll cook some dishes."

She was full of enthusiasm, but Mo Liming said: "Auntie, you are too polite. We have already had dinner. We just want to talk to Mr. Dao."

"Yes, aunt, we've already eaten, you can prepare your own meals, don't bother." Fu Yihong also said softly with a smile.

"Then sit down." Mrs. Dao said enthusiastically with a smile on her face. "My old man will come out in about a while. Hey, you are one step late. I know you are all from the auction company. If you come first Enough."

"It's okay, come first, first served, let's wait." Mo Liming shook his head as if nothing had happened.

Immediately afterwards, he couldn't help asking: "Auntie, according to what we found out, your family has a pair of ancient lamps, right? Can you briefly tell us the story behind it?"

"Well, we have a pair of ancient lamps, which are very old and date back to the Ming Dynasty." Mrs. Dao explained casually, "That thing originally belonged to my natal family, but after my mother passed away, I bought it from her old house. At that time, I didn't know what the lamp stand was for. Later, the old man asked a friend who knew the business to look at it. The man told us that the lamp was originally a 'moon shadow lamp', which was very valuable, so Afterwards, the old man and I discussed whether we should sell the pair of lamps to raise some money to do that."

"That matter?" Mo Liming thought secretly, "That matter probably needs money? The 'Moon Shadow Magic Lamp' is a rare antique, how could Yin Kuina and others take such a good thing?! Yes, We must find a way to snatch the lamp from him!"

There is competition everywhere in the market, and the survival of the fittest results in the survival of the fittest. Naturally, the two auction companies have racked their brains in competing for customers, and each has their own unique tricks to achieve their goals.

"'Moon Shadow Lantern', we have only seen related descriptions in ancient books before, but we haven't seen it with our own eyes. Hey, I don't know if we have this honor." Mo Liming sighed solemnly.

Mrs. Dao quickly said: "That's very simple. When my old man comes out, I will ask him to take you to see the pair of lamps. To be honest, I would rather talk to you. When that person comes, he only talks about money. Saying how much money they promise to give, I don't feel a little human. Unlike you, I feel very gracious."

The "that person" he mentioned was naturally alluding to Yin Kui, and Mo Liming and Fu Yihong also tacitly understood this.

"Auntie, thank you for being so considerate of us. I don't want to bother you anymore, you can go to work." Mo Liming laughed happily.

"Well, then I'm going to cook. You don't have to be polite, just treat it as if you are at your own home." Madam Dao said with a smile, got up and walked to the kitchen.

"Liming, I really can't tell, your communication skills are really strong!"

After Mrs. Dao turned and walked away, Fu Yihong said to Mo Liming in a low voice with a smile.

"Yihong, I didn't say that on purpose, I told the truth." Hearing Fu Yihong's praise, Mo Liming said happily, "My mother's previous cough had similar symptoms to my aunt's. Those traditional Chinese medicines may be helpful It would be good to keep her condition under control."

"I know, you have a very good heart." Fu Yihong looked at Mo Liming with ecstatic eyes and said, "When you came, I just felt that our situation has changed a lot! Now I have confidence again, at least aunt supports us The key point is that the pair of 'Moon Shadow Lanterns' belong to her natal family, that is, they belong to her. As long as she says a few nice words to us in front of Mr. Dao, then we may become passive in front of Yin Kui and the others. Take the initiative."

"Yihong, it's not possible, but absolute." Mo Liming said firmly, "We must win the lamp from Yin Kui! I can't let you make this trip in vain. You used to Going out to do things is basically successful, and this time is no exception! What's more, our competitor is Yin Kui. You should know better than me what kind of person he is and how he treated us before! If this time If he wins, it means that we are being suppressed by him, and I will be very unconvinced!"

"Liming, don't get excited." Fu Yihong said in a comforting tone, "Just try your best. Of course, I also really want to make this deal. After all, it is a 'Moon Shadow Lantern'. This magical antique is not worth much. Fei, if you have the opportunity to collect it yourself, it will be a real pleasure."

"I think there is a chance!" Mo Liming replied thoughtfully with piercing eyes.

After a pause, Mo Liming suddenly changed the topic and asked: "Yihong, you have a lot of knowledge in the antique shop, have you ever seen such a thing?"

"What?" Fu Yihong asked.

Mo Liming frowned slightly and said: "A small bottle, only about ten centimeters high, is completely white and flawless, and its texture is as delicate as fat. Related, have you heard of this kind of thing, it should be very famous. I can’t name it.”

"'Jade Fat Bottle'?!" Fu Yihong wondered, "Could it be 'Caoxi Jade Fat Bottle' you mentioned? It's somewhat similar to what you described."

"'Caoxi Yuzhi Bottle'? What is this, is it famous?" Mo Liming asked doubtfully.

It's the first time he's heard the name "Caoxi Yuzhi Bottle", but it sounds resonant and has that flavor.

Since Fu Yihong said that, then there is indeed this thing, but it is unknown whether it has anything to do with the bottle that the mysterious man in the peaked cap is carrying.

"If you really mean 'Caoxi Yuzhi Bottle', then it will be terrible! Liming, where have you seen that jade fat bottle? Why did you suddenly mention this thing?" Fu Yihong said solemnly.

Mo Liming squinted his eyes and smiled, "I just asked casually, and I was very interested in something I heard from others, so I couldn't help but ask you."

"Oh, that's it." Fu Yihong nodded and said, "Actually, I don't know much about the 'Caoxi Jade Fat Bottle'. I heard the master say that the jade fat bottle is a national treasure among national treasures. It's a pity. The saddest thing is that it was later looted by the Japanese, and since then no one has heard of it, and no one has seen it again."

"Is it really that powerful?" Mo Liming pursed his lips and said, "You said that 'Caoxi Yuzhi Bottle' is a national treasure, so does it have any legendary background?"

"I don't know much about this, I just know that it is more profound and fantastic than the 'Moon Shadow Lantern'. There are rumors that, when the sun sets, if you hold the 'Caoxi Jade Fat Bottle' to face the light of the setting sun, then, The shadows of gods and Buddhas will appear on it, it is really hard to believe!" Fu Yihong said seriously, "Liming, if you want to know more about the 'Caoxi Yuzhi Bottle', then I will ask again later. Master Huo, he knows best."

"Well, thank you very much." Mo Liming said with a smile on his face.

"Why are you being polite." Fu Yihong greeted in a low voice suddenly, "Here, someone has come out."

Following the direction she pointed, Mo Liming subconsciously turned his head to look around, and he caught a figure at a glance, that was Yin Kui.

As soon as he saw Yin Kui, Mo Liming couldn't help feeling disgusted in his heart. He really couldn't figure out, who in the "Jiuding Company" would tell such a small person such important information.

There are spies in "Jiuding Auction Company", which Mo Liming and Fu Yihong analyzed just now, but they couldn't guess who the insider would be.

I saw Yin Kui, who came out of the study with Mr. Dao, smiling happily, as if he was very happy, and he dared to make a difference.

And Mr. Dao had a solemn expression, as if he was lost in thought.

Mr. Dao looks to be in his sixties, and he is very tall. One can tell that he is the kind of serious person.

Mo Liming and Fu Yihong stood up abruptly, greeted Mr. Dao politely, and explained their backgrounds.

As for Yin Kui standing aside, they turned a blind eye and regarded him as transparent air.

Yin Kui also ignored them, but looked at Mo Liming with indifference and disdain from time to time, with an air of superiority and arrogance.

"Miss Fu, Mr. Mo, please go back too, let me think carefully before making a decision." Mr. Dao issued an order to evict Mo Liming and the others as soon as he opened his mouth.

Hearing that Mr. Dao was going to ask Mo Liming and Fu Yihong to leave, Yin Kui was gloating beside him.

But Mo Liming resolutely said: "Mr. Dao, please spare some time, let us have a talk with you, okay?"

"No, I'm very tired today, I want to rest, please go back too, both of you." Mr. Dao waved his hand relentlessly and refused.

"Fusheng, what are you doing? The two of them are my distinguished guests, and I want to keep them for dinner, why do you let them go?!"

Just at this moment, a high-pitched echo came from the kitchen door.
