It is strange that since the factory was taken over, other islanders have disappeared at the same time as the factory. No one retaliated, and there was not even a person to check the situation. This was beyond Zhong Lin's expectations.

After several days of succession, there was still no movement, and this matter came to an end.

Luo Xiaoman is busy with graduation defense these days, which really corresponds to the saying that what should come will always come. She is not prepared well, so she can only cram for a moment. Fortunately, her professional courses are solid, but she is also very busy.

At this moment, Zhong Lin suddenly became idle, so he remembered Zhong Lingyue’s antique shop. Mr. Zhang had told him several times that the antique shop had been opened, but there were not many items inside, so he was waiting for Zhong Lin to restock the goods. It was time to go and take a look, after all, he was still a nominal shareholder.

When Zhong Lin came to the antique shop, it was exactly 9:30 in the morning, which should be the time of the day when the passenger flow was the highest. However, this antique shop called Lin Yueju was deserted.

As soon as Zhong Lin pushed the door, Zhong Lingyue, who was originally sitting on the stool, Du Lan and Mr. Zhang who came to patrol all stood up. When he saw clearly that it was Zhong Lin, Du Lan and Mr. Zhang, who originally thought that customers came to the door, sat back in their seats like deflated balls.

Linzi, are you here?

Zhong Linyue did not sit down, but smiled at Zhong Lin. Her clothes had changed from the career outfit she had in the career introduction office to a robe with an ancient charm, which was very consistent with the atmosphere of the antique shop.

Well, my aunt, it just happened to be fine today, so I came to see how the business is now?

Actually, there is no need to ask, Zhong Lin also knows that the business will definitely not be much better.

It's OK. Zhong Linyue said, the expression on her face did not change.

It's not good at all. The store has been open for several days and has not sold a single item.

Duran is a straight person who can't hide his words in his heart. He is the kind of person who says whatever he wants.

Little girl, don’t worry. There is an old saying in the antique industry that says, “If you don’t open for three years, you can eat for three years.” This business is not like the necessities of daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. People come to buy it every day. Antiques are a kind of fate. Only those with destiny will come to our store and buy things from us.

Although Mr. Zhang said this, the expression on his face had already betrayed him. He had made the idea of ​​opening an antique shop. Seeing that the current business was not as good as the career agency before, he was actually more anxious than Zhong Lingyue and Dulan.

Zhong Lin looked at the utensils placed in the store and frowned. The store of more than 30 square meters is equipped with less than twenty antiques, which are neatly arranged, so you can see through it at a glance. Those who know will say that the store has just opened, and those who don’t know will think that the store is going to be cleared and closed.

Zhong Lingyue seemed to see Zhong Lin’s thoughts and said with a smile: These things are all made up for Old Master Zhang’s personal collection.

Yes, Zhong Lin, I wanted you to take us to "picking up bargains" before opening, but I didn't expect you to be so busy. But you just said that you happened to be fine today, so let's go with us to make up some goods. How about it?

Mr. Zhang is very smart and has found the right opportunity.

OK, where did you want to go? I'll go with you.

Zhong Lin agreed readily.

The antique market is full of goods. With your ability, our shop will be full in just one day.

Mr. Zhang stroked his beard, and the expression on his face finally changed, and his smiling eyes narrowed into a slit.

There was no one in the store, so it was enough to leave Dulan alone. Zhong Lin, Mr. Zhang and Zhong Lingyue went straight to the antique market.

It had just rained heavily last night, so the weather today was not very hot, and the breeze blew, making people feel very comfortable. There was nothing to say on the road, and Zhong Lin and the others quickly arrived at the antique market.

Hey, you are here again today!

There were no other people around, and it was obvious that the voice was shouting at Zhong Lin and the others. Zhong Lin wondered in his heart that the only person who knew them in this place was probably the only one who knew them, but Zi Zhu Taoist's shop was on the other end of the street, which was still far away from here.

Zhong Lin turned around and found that the person who called him was really an acquaintance - Grandpa Bi who sells the bird keychain.

Hey, hello! Yes, we are here again, come and go around.

When Zhong Lingyue and Mr. Zhang both turned around, Grandpa Bi was stunned at first, but in just a moment, his face returned to normal.

Let me guess, this beautiful lady should have the word "month" in her name, right?

Grandpa Bi said mysteriously.

How do you know, do you also know how to read photos?

Zhong Lingyue was a little surprised. She was sure that she had never been here before, and she didn't know the person in front of her.

To say that Grandpa Bi is poor enough, what if Zhong Lin brought him here today is not Zhong Linyue but someone else? But his memory is very good, and he really guessed it right.

Hey, the handsome guy next to you bought my homemade bird keychain here before, and I bought three of them. One of them was the Guanyin avatar, with the word "Lin" engraved on it, which should have been worn by him; the other two were Maitreya Buddha, one was engraved with the word "Man" and the other was engraved with the word "Yue". The man wore Guanyin and the woman wore Buddha, and the two Maitreya Buddha's bird keychain must be given to the two girls. I know the girl with the word "Man" in her name, which is from Southeast University, so I guess, you should be the girl with the word "Yue" in her name, right? These three bird keychains are unique.

Grandpa Bi shook his head and said it was reasonable and well-founded.

Zhong Lingyue unconsciously touched her shoulder bag. At this moment, her shoulder bag was filled with the bird keychain with the word "moon".

However, at this moment, a hint of sorrow climbed on her face without any notice.

After leaving Grandpa Bi's little bird keychain stall, Zhong Lin and the others began to browse the antique shop one by one.

According to Mr. Zhang, antique shops do not necessarily have completely placed antiques, but also have to place some modern artworks. As the saying goes, "Yangchun Baixue, Xiaoliba people," because not everyone who enters antique shops goes to buy real antiques.

Zhong Lin and Zhong Lingyue both agreed with this, so Zhong Lin called Zong Qiang over with a phone call and asked him to drive the car and wait aside. After buying the right thing, he put it in the car. In this way, he would not be tired of carrying large and small bags, nor would the store consider it to be here to sweep the goods, so he would start the price.

With Zhong Lin checking the bargain, it is inevitable to pick up bargains. However, whenever he encounters a bargain, Zhong Lin often does not bargain and directly pays as much as the other party wants. Only when he encounters a relatively good modern art work, will Zhong wink and Mr. Zhang bargain. After all, the asking price of these modern art works is higher than the price of genuine ones.

Because it was not just a quick look, but was really shopping. It was not until almost noon that Zhong Lin and his group transferred to the Wumingzhai of Zizhu Taoist.

When the Taoist Zizhu was naturally very happy when he saw Zhong Lin and Mr. Zhang coming. After asking about his purpose, Taoist Zizhu slapped his thigh and said: Hey, why didn’t you tell me earlier when you opened a store? I should have called some colleagues to congratulate you. This way, you can choose three things in my store and just treat it as a gift I gave you.

Although his peers are enemies, Taoist Zizhu has no such feeling at all. It can be seen that his words are from the heart.

Really, brother, then I'm better obey my duty than respect.

Even though he said that, Zhong Lin didn't choose a valuable thing. He just found some items that looked fancy and actually didn't have a valuable item. Simply put, they were all modern handicrafts.

Zhong Lin, aren’t you slapping me in the face? Can you choose something better?

Since Zhong Lin bought something in his store last time, Taoist Zizhu knew that Zhong Lin was an expert in this industry, and it can also be confirmed by the fact that he opened an antique store. Therefore, Zhong Lin could not tell the difference between good and bad. The reason for choosing this is that he did not want to take advantage of him.

Old brother, I have received your wishes. Besides, these three things are quite good.

Zhong Lin expressed his gratitude sincerely.

Let's do this, I'll give you another item and you'll wait.

After saying that, Taoist Zizhu reached out and took off a small wooden box from a shelf. The material of the wooden box was very ordinary, it should be just ordinary mixed wood, and there was a layer of dust on it. It can be seen that at least one month had not been moved. Because the placement was very inconspicuous, Zhong Lin did not pay attention to it when he came last time.

The Taoist Zizhu opened the wooden box and took out a black iron lump from it and said: "My friend Zhong Lin, it's useless for me to keep this thing, so I'll give it to you!"

After seeing the iron lump, Zong Qiang frowned and thought to himself: This person speaks very nicely, and he gives away and picks casually. Why do I take out this thing now? I don’t think it’s as good as the three items Zhong Lin picked before! Could it be that this guy regrets it, don’t want to give those three items to others?

Zhong Lin carefully took the iron lump and immediately noticed a trace of ancient aura. He felt that the iron lump was far older than the auspicious and inauspicious compass where Ding Ling lived before, but how could such an ancient piece of iron not rust?

Zhong Lin thought to himself, but said: No, this thing is too expensive, I can't take it!

No matter how valuable the thing is, it is just a lump of iron to me. I think it may be useful to you. As the saying goes, a hero is given a sword. You can donate those three things, but you must accept this one.
Chapter completed!
