Why did he say that they were like Yellow Ox's toddlers?

Because what they did was just do a single business and change a single place. In other words, the two people in front of them were not locals of Lu Zhou.

He turned the two walnuts in his hand two times before saying, "Young man, this old man has come already, how can we easily go back? Moreover, you haven't sold anything yet, so why don't you show it to this old man. If this old man really likes it, buying it isn't out of the question."

Hearing the old man's words, the little sixth son was immediately overjoyed, smiling as he flattered and fawned over him. He even winked at Brother Ma, signalling him to quickly make up his mind.

Moreover, he could already tell that the old man in front of them was a rich man. The jade pendant in his chest alone was enough for the two of them to work so hard for several years.

How could the Brother Ma not know about this? However, he still wanted to catch some big fish and continue to fish for the old man's appetite, so he said with some difficulty: "Old sir, we are open for business here, don't you think doing this would break the rules of our business? Furthermore, Boss Zheng has already agreed to come in the afternoon to take the goods for payment, how will I explain this to him?"

The elder turned the walnut in his hand two times and revealed a disappointed expression. He sighed, "In that case, it really is this old man's fault. I won't disturb your business any longer."

Seeing the old man about to leave, Lil 'Six was extremely anxious, the fat meat in his mouth was not something he could just throw away like that. He stood in front of the old man to block his way, and said: "Old sir, don't be anxious, that's really a good treasure. It would be such a pity if you didn't take a look."

With that, he turned to look at Brother Ma, and complained: Brother Ma, who would treat customers like this, are you still going to do business? This old mister has come here with so much difficulty, so what if I show it to him?

The old man stopped in his tracks and turned around with a smile on his face, as if he was waiting for Brother Ma's decision. Brother Ma also became flustered when he saw that the old man really wanted to leave, and his expression softened a little, but he still pretended to be serious.

The Brother Ma hesitated for a while, as though he was in the middle of a huge mental battle. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said resolutely: "Alright, since old sir wants to take a look, then I will let you take a look first, but I have words to say first, looks are fine, but if you want to buy it, you have to wait a bit, I promised Boss Zheng, I can't break the rules and tell me to go back on my word, after all, I still have to open my shop in the future."

Lin Xi watched with interest from the side, he really wanted to know what was going to happen next, but the stall owner shook his head, as though he was sighing with emotion, and laughed disdainfully: "Two little hoodlums that can't even be considered as part of the martial arts world, they actually want to play the double play with the President Zhang, I'm afraid they don't even know the direction of the door, how ignorant!"

When Lin Xi heard the artifact dealer's disdain, his heart stirred. He turned around and asked while smiling: "Boss, are you talking about that old man?

Hearing Lin Xi's doubt, the booth owner knew that he was an amateur, otherwise how would he not know about President Zhang. However, since Lin Xi had asked him, he did not mind, and said: "That's right, that old sir is the chief adviser on Ba Chuan, the famous Zhang Senxu, President Zhang."

Lin Xi was suddenly enlightened, and he became even more interested in the commotion over there.

Otherwise, how could the Antique World, which was hidden within the Ba Chuan all year round, not recognize Zhang Senxu? Or else, unless they were outsiders.

However, could it be that this President Zhang really did not see through the fact that the two of them were playing a double trick on him, or that this President Zhang had some other motive?

It could be said that they had just arrived here, and all they wanted to do was make a big deal before they quickly left. They had long gotten used to this kind of living.

Not long after he left the stall today, the little six who was pulling customers coincidentally saw President Zhang. Seeing that he was dressed in luxurious clothing, they would walk around in front of every stall and didn't buy anything at all.

Furthermore, although the President Zhang was spirited, he was already very old. Based on his many years of experience, this old man should be the best to fool. As long as he succeeded, he would immediately leave.

Even if the old man found out afterwards that he had been cheated, he would still hold it in for the sake of his face. Since he was old and had money, wasn't it a little too much of a face?

It had to be said that the two of them had a very thorough understanding of the human heart. If it were any other person, they might have fallen for it, but today, they had encountered the true King of Hell.

Seeing that the liveliness was still ongoing, Lin Xi took the opportunity to ask the vendor for guidance, and asked: "Boss, what is this Jianghu Sect you speak of, a gang of Jianghu, how come there are gangs of Jianghu?"

Therefore, he did not expect Lin Xi to be able to earn any money from him and straightforwardly said: "The so-called martial arts library refers to those people who specialize in inverting genuine antiques and running antique calligraphy and painting. Later on, some people who stole tombs by looting gold also joined in and even stole from people, taking advantage of everything else. They even went back to their ancestors and accepted the thief as their ancestor, giving themselves the title of the martial arts library. However, since I have just entered the list of martial arts world, it is fine to fool others who are not very knowledgeable. However, if I want to deceive the President Zhang, I will need to return and train for another twenty years. "

Actually, he had only said half of the information about the martial arts world's bookseller. The other half might not even be known to him.

Since ancient times, three mountains and five seas, from the top of the temple hall to the bottom of the well, were all known as the martial arts world.

In ancient times, there were eight great doors to it. At that time, there was a saying that went, "The Three Sects and Nine Streams, The Eight Great Lakes".

Almost everyone knew about it, but those who knew about the eight great rivers and lakes were extremely rare. In general, it referred to the eight main categories of livelihood in the society, including shock, exhaustion, floating, reading, wind, fire, viscount, and so on. These eight types of livelihood were one of them.

It was worth mentioning that the old society was very different from the current martial arts world. At that time, the martial arts world was focused on studying the modern and ancient knowledge, and the founder of the martial world was Shi Sheng Si Ma Qian.

How could he be like today? He was a man who roamed the world, selling real antiques, managing calligraphy and paintings, and even a tomb robber. He could call himself a member of the sect, and he even bullied his master into exterminating his ancestors.

After listening to the stall owner's explanation to the Jiang Hu Sect, Lin Xi had a vague understanding of the situation, and then, he smiled as he thanked the stall owner. The stall owner, on the other hand, was a straightforward person, and left with a smile.

At that time, Brother Ma took out a porcelain bottle from the tightly closed rattan chest with a shocking caution. He then slowly touched it in front of President Zhang, afraid that this porcelain bottle would shatter like tender tofu.
