Chapter 66 Before the Exchange Meeting
The appraisal went quite smoothly. Brother Long and his team didn't do anything weird. The antiques they brought were all genuine ones from ancient tombs. Even the high-quality counterfeits brought by Zheng Wen's two schools were lucky enough to pass the inspection and be regarded as genuine. As soon as the appraisal was over, Consultant Liu hurriedly said goodbye and left, even Wang Erxiao wanted to see him off but he refused. One can't help but wonder if he made a mistake in judging an item in order to get away from Zhang Dadao as soon as possible.
As soon as Consultant Liu left, Zheng Wen, who had been keeping his head down and pretending to be low-key, became more active and sighed repeatedly: "Fortunately, fortunately, if I had been recognized by Teacher Liu, my life in school would have been difficult!"
Wang Erxiao glanced at him and squinted his eyes and said, "It seems that Teacher Liu doesn't teach in many schools? But don't worry, Lao Liu is a smart man and never talks too much ."
Zheng Wen smiled awkwardly, and Zhang Dadao interrupted, "I guess he wouldn't recognize you if you were more honest. After all, you are different from me. I have a unique temperament and stand out like a pearl on the beach. People like you probably have a low presence in school, so don't worry about it at all."
Wang Shanshan stood up and shook her neck, then waved her hand at Zhang Dadao, "You guys keep talking nonsense! I didn't sleep well yesterday, so I don't have time to bother with you. I'm going upstairs to rest for a while!"
Zhang Dadao quickly came up and asked, "What about the card application? I just introduced so much, can't we just let it go?"
Wang Shanshan glanced at Zhang Dadao and pointed at Ye Hao and said, "Let him pay the money and bring it to me when it's done!" Then she turned to Ye Hao and said, "Do you have any objections?"
Ye Hao shook his head quickly: "No, no, I'd be more than happy to do so! I'll definitely get you the best one!" If Ye Hao were to apply for the card himself, he probably wouldn't be so generous. Although Zhang Dadao was indeed quite capable, in Ye Hao's opinion, it was not worth spending so much money, but it was different when it came to picking up girls. To pursue Wang Shanshan, Ye Hao was really willing to spend the money, and decided to get the best one without blinking an eye.
Wang Shanshan snorted, revealing an expression that was hard to tell whether it was a smile or anger, and said, "You have a lot of money! Just get an ordinary card and top up 2,000 yuan to use first! I don't even know what's the point of calculating? Why get something better? Who knows if this little Taoist priest is cheating us out of our money?"
Zhang Dadao quickly raised his palm and swore: "I have the best reputation in the martial arts world. I am honest and trustworthy. I guarantee that I will pay you ten times the amount if you cheat me."
Wang Erxiao rolled his eyes and said, "Even the liars say they are not liars. We will have to wait and see what they are really like. Anyway, I won't apply for a very good card. I'll top up a thousand yuan and see what kind of person you are!"
"Damn it!" Zhang Dadao was furious. "You think you can test my character with just one thousand yuan? You underestimate me. Add another five hundred! Look at your cousin. He's only a little short of becoming a lifetime member! Why doesn't he learn something good?"
Zheng Wen and the others did not join the discussion, but they were listening on the side. After hearing what Zhang Dadao said, Zheng Wen whispered to Brother Long: "This Taoist priest is becoming more and more unreliable. His character is worth fifteen hundred yuan. We have to be careful not to be sold out by him."
Wu Datou and Liuzi nodded repeatedly to express their deep agreement.
After hearing what Zhang Dadao said, Wang Shanshan suddenly stopped at the stairs and turned around to ask, "Cousin? Is he the cousin from my second uncle's family who runs a hotel?"
Wang Erxiao nodded and said, "That's the one. I called him this morning and he was talking nonsense. He also said that this Taoist priest was a real master and asked me to be careful in entertaining him! It seems that he was fooled and spent at least tens of thousands of dollars!"
Wang Shanshan angrily cursed, "Damn local tyrant!" and went upstairs. Although she was the son of an official, Wang Shanshan, who had not graduated, would not have much spare money even if her family was powerful and well-educated. On the contrary, Wang Erxiao, who was smart, had built some businesses and lived a very comfortable life.
Zhang Dadao didn't care how much money they had, as long as he could cheat them out of their money, he would be satisfied. Zhang Dadao had made quite a lot of money now, at least for ordinary people, it would take more than a few days to make so much money. His speed was actually not much different from that of a fraud.
If Zhang Dadao hadn't known that he needed to get an ID card and that he had to prepare more money to do so, he would have found a place to hide with the wealth he had now given him given his usual laziness.
The few of them argued about Zhang Dadao's character for a while, and Wang Erxiao finally said, "The exchange meeting will be tomorrow, and the place is right here. You can stay here today or find a place to stay. I don't care. Anyway, it will start on time at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. I will find someone to move your things away now, and you can send someone to record it later. It doesn't matter whether you come tomorrow or not. If the auction is successful, I will transfer the money to your card!"
Brother Long nodded repeatedly and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Young Master Wang!"
Ye Hao curled his lips and said to Wang Erxiao: "I won't live with you anymore. I have a few classmates over there. I haven't talked to them for two days. I have to go back to see them! Lend me a car later."
Wang Erxiao nodded and said, "There's one in the garage at the back. The key is on the equipment table, but there's no good car!"
Ye Hao waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, as long as I can move! By the way, Taoist priest, are you going to stay here or come and play with me?"
Zhang Dadao was stunned. He didn't expect Ye Hao to invite him. After a moment's pause, he asked, "Are your classmates rich?"
When Ye Hao heard this, he felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and quickly shook his head and said, "They definitely won't apply for a card! But if it's fortune-telling, I guess a few people with spare money would give it a try."
Zhang Dadao thought for a while before saying, "Then I'll go with you to have a look! It's better to have something than nothing, and every penny saved counts."
Brother Long and the others lowered their heads and discussed in a low voice for a while, and then Zheng Wen came out and said, "Young Master Ye, do you mind taking me with you? I've been studying in Hangzhou for a few years, so I can be your tour guide!"
Ye Hao was stunned and looked at Zhang Dadao, but Zhang Dadao didn't care at all and opened the refrigerator to taste the remaining bottles that he hadn't tasted. Ye Hao then said, "Hey, Taoist priest! You are also a local, right? Do you know any fun places?"
Zhang Dadao was stunned, thinking: "The Seventh Courtyard is quite fun! It's a pity that I don't dare to go back." He was distracted for a moment , and then said: "I don't know, I usually have to practice meditation, how can I have time to play around!"
Ye Hao then nodded to Zheng Wen: "Okay, just follow us! But don't talk nonsense to my classmates, they don't know what my family does. If they knew, it would be difficult to get along with them."
Zheng Wen was stunned, then smiled and shook his head, "We don't know what your family does either. Don't worry about that!"
Ye Hao nodded in satisfaction, took Zhang Dadao to the garage, found a car, drove out of the wetland and headed towards the city.
