Upon hearing this, Ye Chen was even more surprised.
This Zhou Liangyun only went to work at Jiqingtang two months before the incident. All these signs indicate that he seems to have gone to Jiqingtang just for himself!
Thinking of this, Ye Chen quickly asked: “Wanting, was it you who recruited him?”
“Yes.” Song Wanting said: “At that time, I was not taken seriously in the Song family, and I was squeezed out by my uncle and cousin, so the family gave me the business of Ji Qingtang. At that time, Ji Qingtang could not make ends meet, and internally It was also very chaotic, and the collusion between internal and external employees was very serious, so I fired all the people and replaced them with a new group of people. It was at that time that Zhou Liangyun came to apply for the job;”
Ye Chen felt that his brain was short-circuited at this moment.
Now it seems that Zhou Liangyun is most likely to appear in Jinling because of arrangements, and the person who arranged him is probably his father who has been dead for twenty years.
This also made Ye Chen feel an inexplicable tension and oppression. What happened to his parents back then? Not only did they lead to death, but they even had to plan so far and so much for themselves before the accident happened.
Back then, when something happened to his parents, Tang Sihai immediately protected himself in the orphanage. This was the arrangement that his father had made long ago. But unexpectedly, he actually arranged for this person named Zhou to stay in the orphanage for nearly twenty years. Then he went to Jinling to set up a game for himself…
Thinking of this, he picked up the phone again and called Wanting Song. He had another question that he urgently needed to confirm with Wanting Song.
When the call was connected, Wanting Song asked respectfully on the other side of the phone: “Master Ye, have you read the information I just sent you? Do you have any questions?”
“I saw it.” Ye Chen said, “No problem, I just have another thing I want to confirm with you.”
Song Wanting said quickly: “Master Ye, please speak.”
Ye Chen said: “It’s the jade pot and spring vase that my father-in-law accidentally broke. Do you still know how it got to Jiqingtang? Did Jiqingtang take it back by itself, or did someone else put it on consignment in Jiqingtang?”
Song Wanting thought deeply: “That jade pot and spring vase… If I remember correctly, it should have been recovered by Manager Zhou. In the first month after he joined the job, he helped Ji Qingtang recover many antiques, but most of them were not very impressive. , although it is not eye-catching, it is an ordinary item and there is not much profit margin. The jade pot and spring bottle is the best antique he recovered. ”
Ye Chen murmured: “It turns out he took it back… Then did he say where he took it back from?”
Wanting Song thought for a while and said: “At that time, he said that a friend of his who used to make antiques changed hands because he was short of money, and the price was indeed quite suitable. The market price could be about four to five million, and even some I got a shot with a potential of five to six million, but that person’s quote at that time was less than four million, so I thought it was a sure profit, so I asked him to take it back.”
“I understand.” Ye Chen nodded to himself. This result was not beyond his expectation. It seems that Zhou Liangyun went to Jinling specifically and applied for a job at Jiqingtang, and also introduced the jade pot spring bottle at a low price. Ji Qingtang, everything is done so that he can obtain the “Nine Mysterious Heavenly Scriptures”.
So the question is, was this “Nine Mysterious Heavenly Scripture” left to me by my father?
If my father had already obtained the “Nine Mysterious Heavenly Scriptures” at that time, why didn’t he practice the techniques in it?
Thinking of this, Ye Chen couldn’t help but feel trapped.
