The conversation went on for almost an entire night. The three brothers finally fell asleep when the first light of the morning arrived. This sleep lasted until around 2 PM! Faang Cheng woke up from his hunger, he squinted his eyes and looked around, only to realize that the three of them had already scavenged everything he could eat last night. He was so hungry that he could only put on his clothes unwillingly and walk out of Zhang Xiaotian's shop.

There were a lot of small vendors selling snacks in front of the Antique Market gate. There were cold skins, meat buns, Thousand Layers Pancakes, Viscous Noodle Soup and so on, maybe because he was hungry, Faang Cheng wanted to eat anything! He bought 6 meat buns, 3 servings of cold skin and 3 servings of wet noodles and put them into the bag, then casually went to the trunk of his car and took Zhang Xiaotian and her 2 heavy backpacks back to the bookstore!

When he returned to the house, Zhou Yan and Zhang Xiaotian were already awake. The two of them sat on the side of the bed and stared at the "breakfast" in Faang Cheng's hands, while Faang Cheng smiled and threw everything he had to the two of them. He then picked up a meat bun himself and started to bite on it!

"Those things... "What should we do?"

While Zhang Xiaotian was eating, she pointed to the backpack on the side and asked Faang Cheng.

"I didn't know that when we were on the mountain, I had already promised to give them to you!"

Faang Cheng shrugged his shoulders indifferently and intentionally teased Zhang Xiaotian.

Hearing that, Zhang Xiaotian suddenly remembered the greedy look she had when she was at the mountain, he could not help but scratch her head in annoyance.

"That... Cheng, stop ridiculing me. I know, it's because I was too greedy, that caused us to be almost killed by those Grave Robber! If I wasn't so greedy, I would have left when you told me to leave. Maybe we wouldn't have met those Grave Robber! "

Zhang Xiaotian was truly ashamed. She normally acted like a man who could support the heavens and the earth, looking down on this and that, but when she looked at those worldly possessions, she actually became so vulgar and greedy.

"Loving money is a good thing, but being greedy isn't necessarily a good thing. Think about it, since ancient times, how many people have been destroyed by the word 'greed'!?" "Actually, seeing so many antiques appearing in front of us, I was trying my best to resist my greed. This is very normal, but after experiencing this, if there's a situation like this in the future, we must distinguish between the best and the best!"

Faang Cheng could hear the truth in his words, but he also understood the meaning behind them.

"Un, next time, I will take a few and run …"

These words made Zhou Yan burst out in laughter.

"Then now... What about these things? "

Zhou Yan looked at the two big backpacks that were bulging out.

"Mm …" Let's first take a look at how much he brought back, and then I'll go and contact the Fourth Master Qi. He knows a lot of people, so we should be able to find a place to make a move! "

Without waiting for Faang Cheng to finish speaking, Zhang Xiaotian jumped up from the bed and rushed towards the two bags!

There were a total of thirty-three of them, which included all kinds of jade artifacts of all sizes — thirteen of them, one big and two small, three Tang Three Colors, one gold and silver bowl each, four gold ancient treasure coins, seven bronze ancient coins, a three-colored pottery pillow, and three lotus flower bowls!

It was precisely because they had listened to Faang Cheng's opinion that the things they brought back in their bags, other than the large Tang San Cai and the relatively large three-colored pottery pillow, the rest were all middle-sized items. It was also because of this that they were able to carry a total of thirty-three items!

Zhang Xiaotian placed the things on her desk one by one, her face filled with pride. On the other hand, Faang Cheng, who was at the side, was tightly clenching his fist, secretly suppressing the happy spirit energy. He had already confirmed that his fingers could already feel the existence of spirit energy through the air!

"Cheng, these things... "How much can it be worth?"

Zhang Xiaotian's eyeballs were almost turned into two pink hearts. She glanced at Zhang Xiaotian's mischievous look and couldn't help but pout her lips.

"A lot!"

Then he got up and picked up the phone. He went to the outer room and made a phone call!

The call was to Fourth Master Qi, where Faang Cheng explained that he had some old items from the Sui Tang Dynasty that he wanted to help with, and asked Fourth Master if there were any more reliable buyers! Of course, he did not say a single word about the origins of these things. All he said was that he had found them in the countryside during his hike! When Fourth Master heard this, he did not probe any further, but when Fourth Master heard the quantity of the items, he could not help but think for a moment, and then he told Faang Cheng to wait, and then hung up!

Hearing the abnormal tone of the Fourth Master Qi, Faang Cheng couldn't help but feel guilty. After all … This thing did not come out in the open! He began to feel upset. Leaning against the back of a sofa in the bookstore, he lit up a cigarette and started smoking! Fortunately, the suffering did not last for too long. About ten minutes later, Fourth Master Qi called.

"Faang Cheng, this thing... I can't eat it! "

The words of the Fourth Master Qi made Faang Cheng's heart hang in his throat.

"Fourth Master, you …"

"Hehehe, don't worry. I can't eat it, but someone can! However … "This person is in Beijing. You need to make a trip to Beijing!"

Fourth Master Qi gasped for breath.

"Beijing?"

Faang Cheng could not help but be taken aback, but what he was thinking about in his mind... That beautiful face!

"Don't worry, I'll go with you. He'll be ready for everything, there's no need for you to worry!" Those buyers are also well-known people in the capital. Money is not a problem. What they want is face, as long as your goods are genuine, you can earn a lot of money! "

Fourth Master Qi knew that Faang Cheng was worried. After all, it was unavoidable to take so many valuable things into his own unfamiliar environment.

"Okay, thank you Fourth Master Qi!"

Hearing Fourth Master Qi's words, Faang Cheng did not have any more worries, and straightforwardly agreed.

"Alright, I'll inform you when that side is ready. Let's set off together!"

"Alright!"

After hanging up, Faang Cheng threw the cigarette in his hand onto the ground, used his legs to crush it, and turned back to enter the house!

"Little Dog, Zhou Yan, get ready, we might be heading to the capital in a few days!"

He said to the two of them,

"Enter the capital? What are we doing in the capital? "

Zhang Xiaotian was still appreciating the antiques, as if she could not see enough no matter how she looked at them. In her eyes, the things on the table were not antiques, but bundles of red bills.

"Take things with you?"

After all, he had been to a whole new world. Zhou Yan looked at the items on the table and understood what he meant.

"Un, Fourth Master Qi said that he would not be able to finish his food and had to go to Beijing. We need to set up a conspiracy, but in any case, we just need to be prepared, nothing bad should happen, Fourth Master Qi shouldn't have any problems! "

As Faang Cheng said that, his eyes glanced at the bandage on Zhou Yan's shoulder which was already oozing blood. He turned around and went into the bathroom.

"Zhou Yan, get up and wash up. Come out with me in a while!"

His voice came out from the bathroom in a muffled manner!
