The two continued to chat happily.
The figures Xu Lang saw were indeed his second uncle Xu Jianwei and second aunt Yan Dongying.
After the two came out of Xu Lang's house, they did not dare to delay.
Xu Jianwei used his connections to mortgage all his houses and cars.
They had a total of three million yuan in their hands, including the money from the mortgage of the RV and their previous savings.
After raising the money, the two rushed to the antique market of the porcelain factory without stopping.
"You always told me that your eldest brother treated you very well! Look at them now, they have become rich, but they won't help you! I think your eldest brother's new home must be worth tens of millions at least."
Yan Dongying complained to Xu Jianwei as she walked.
Xu Jianwei's eyes were also full of resentment.
He was unwilling to accept that the RV he had worked so hard for so many years was being mortgaged.
"Don't worry, I'll go find my eldest brother once I get my son out! Ask him to help us redeem the garage. If he doesn't agree, I'll go to the old man and make a scene!"
Xu Jianwei gritted his teeth.
Only then did Yan Dongying nod with satisfaction.
The two of them didn't know anything about antiques, so they didn't dare to buy calligraphy and paintings at the stalls in the porcelain factory.
You can only go to antique shops where the prices are slightly higher but the quality is guaranteed.
This is also the reason why Xu Lang knew that he would definitely see the two people on the street where the antique shop was.
But Xu Jianwei and Yan Dongying didn't know that their fate was completely changed because of Xu Lang's words.
The two entered an antique shop, and the owner of the antique shop was looking at his mobile phone.
When he saw the two people come in, his eyes lit up.
"Hey! You two distinguished guests! What are you looking at? Our store has just received a batch of calligraphy and paintings, all of which are old items from before the Qing Dynasty!"
After hearing the shopkeeper's words, Xu Jianwei and Yan Dongying looked at each other, and they both knew that they had come to the right place!
"Ahem, let's just take a look!"
Xu Jianwei was still an experienced person. He did not immediately tell Yan Dongying why he came. Instead, he took Yan Dongying around the store.
He even pretended to be very knowledgeable and started commenting on the things in the antique shop.
"This is good, it's old enough!"
“This is almost right.”
Xu Jianwei nodded and shook his head, pretending to be very convincing.
The shopkeeper looked at the two men and tried hard to suppress his smile.
If I hadn't received the intelligence in advance, I would have been fooled by this man, the shopkeeper thought.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Xu Jianwei frowned and looked like the shopkeeper.
Here it comes! The shopkeeper suppressed his excitement.
"Boss, did you just bring back some calligraphy and paintings? Take them out so I can have a look! I don't like the things in your shop very much!"
The shopkeeper was secretly delighted but did not show it.
"Okay, you two go wait upstairs! I'll ask the waiter to get it!"
The shopkeeper personally took the two of them upstairs.
Xu Jianwei did not suspect anything and just thought that he had scared the shopkeeper.
Yan Dongying also looked at her husband with admiration.
The shopkeeper brought the two men to a private room and sat them down, then personally busied himself pouring water for them.
Xu Jianwei's vanity was greatly satisfied.
He didn't know that after the two of them went upstairs, the shop assistant went out, took a pile of paintings from Wang Dongyang's shop, and hurried back to the shop.
"Why are you so slow?" Xu Jianwei pretended to be impatient.
"Just wait!" You will be slaughtered soon.
The shopkeeper's face was all smiles.
The guy brought the painting back breathlessly.
The shopkeeper quickly took the paintings and hung them on the wall one by one.
"Please let this gentleman judge!"
How could Xu Jianwei understand this? He could only see that some of the paintings were of landscapes, some were of figures, and one was of an old cow licking its calf.
"Shopkeeper, please tell me about it!"
Xu Jianwei pretends to be profound.
"This painting is a landscape from the Ming Dynasty and is priced at five million!"
"This is a painting of a beauty from the Song Dynasty, priced at 4.7 million."
The shopkeeper tried his best to introduce the products, but Xu Jianwei and Yan Dongying's brows became more and more furrowed.
Obviously, they can't afford it.
"This painting is from the Ming Dynasty, and it is about an old cow licking its calf. The meaning of the allusion of an old cow licking its calf is obvious, and it best reflects the love that parents have for their children! This painting is worth four million."
This is also the last painting.
"Moreover, for the paintings sold in our store, you can sign an agreement to guarantee the authenticity of the price quoted! If you violate this agreement, you will be compensated double the amount!"
The shopkeeper patted his chest and made the promise.
Xu Jianwei was very excited. This was the first time he heard of an antique shop that signed an agreement to guarantee authenticity and price.
But the price was beyond my expectations.
"This painting is well done! But the price..." Xu Jianwei pointed at the picture of an old cow licking its calf, which was almost the cheapest one.
"This one! This one is on consignment from someone else. The owner is in urgent need of money. If you pay it all in one lump sum today, I can make the decision. Three million!"
The shopkeeper showed a smug smile, but quickly restrained it.
Xu Jianwei's eyes lit up and he wanted to bargain again, but the shopkeeper spoke first.
"But this is the lowest price. I won't sell it if it's one cent lower!"
The shopkeeper's attitude seemed to be saying that if Xu Jianwei bargained again, he would be asked to leave.
Xu Jianwei wanted to struggle a little longer.
But some people didn't give him this opportunity.
Chapter 75: Borrowing a Knife to Kill
"Go out and ask around, I guarantee you this is the only store like ours!"
The shopkeeper pointed outside the door and shouted.
This sentence was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
"We bought it!" Yan Dongying handed the bank card in his hand to the shopkeeper without waiting for Xu Jianwei's reply.
“So refreshing!”
The shopkeeper was afraid that Xu Jianwei would go back on his word, so he quickly asked his clerk to pack up the paintings.
Completed the deal with them.
I also signed a contract with them in front of them.
At this point, Xu Jianwei had no better choice.
This is the only thing I can do to save the child.
He took the painting and the contract and left the antique shop with his wife.
After they left, the owner of the antique shop looked at their departing backs and smiled meaningfully.
. . . . .
After getting the ancient painting, Xu Jianwei didn't want to wait any longer. He spent so much money just to rescue his son.
If I had presented the painting and apologized earlier, my son would have been able to come out earlier.
The two took a taxi to the address given by Xu Lang, which was the boss's courtyard.
As for the boss’s phone number, it was also given to them by Xu Lang.
Xu Jianwei dialed the phone nervously.
"Hello! Are you home?"
"Ah? Me? My good-for-nothing son Xu Feng had a dispute with your son, and we are here to apologize."
After saying this, Xu Jianwei clearly felt a silence on the other end of the phone.
"Okay, tell the guard that I let you in!"
After a long time, a voice came from the other end of the phone.
Then hung up the phone.
Xu Jianwei breathed a sigh of relief.
"Done!" He looked at Yan Dongying.
Hearing his words, Yan Dongying showed a hint of relief on his face.
"I'm here to see Master Wu!"
Xu Jianwei looked at the security guard of the compound.
The security guard looked at the two of them and nodded: "Okay! Get in the car! I'll take you there!"
The two got into the security patrol car.
This courtyard, the garden in the front hall alone is as big as a football field. You can even see security guards patrolling with wolfhounds.
The two of them didn't dare to look around, for fear of seeing something they shouldn't see.
They were taken by security to a garden, where a nanny in her thirties was already waiting.
Following the nanny through the garden, the two finally saw the person they wanted to see.
The man was wearing a Zhongshan suit and looked to be in his fifties. He had his hair combed back and stuck neatly to his scalp.
He just lay in the rocking chair and listened to the radio.
Although he couldn't see the face, Xu Jianwei clearly felt a sense of pressure.
"Fifth. Master Wu?" Xu Jianwei didn't even know his name.
"Ok!"
The man nodded, sat up and looked at Xu Jianwei.
"Hey! I heard that you like calligraphy and painting. Here is a little token of my appreciation!"
Xu Jianwei's face was all smiles.
His money has already been spent, and whether he can save his son depends on this person's thoughts.
"Yes, we spent three million!"
Yan Dongying said quickly.
Xu Jianwei quickly interrupted her, saying that this woman was more likely to cause trouble than to help others.
People at this level don't care how much you spend.
"It's just a small token of my appreciation. I'm not very good at talking."
Seeing that Yan Dongying wanted to say something, Xu Jianwei quickly pulled her back.
Finally, under Xu Jianwei's expectant gaze, the man slowly stood up, picked up the scroll, and slowly unfolded it from top to bottom.
