Chapter 370 Making a Game
After many twists and turns, Tang Qiu followed Mr. Li to a street that looked more retro.
On both sides of the street are shops selling calligraphy, paintings and antiques.
Mr. Li brought Tang Qiu to an antique shop. As soon as they entered, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties walked out from the counter: "Mr. Li, you are here? Please come in."
Mr. Li smiled and said to the middle-aged man, "Xiao Wang, is the person you called me about yesterday still here?"
The man said cheerfully, "Yes, shall we go inside and take a look?"
Mr. Li waved his hand: "Don't worry, I brought the younger generation to your store to take a look."
Then Mr. Li said to Tang Qiu, "Come, girl, take a look and see if there is anything you like. Your Grandpa Li will buy it for you."
Tang Qiu looked at it and finally shook his head: "Forget it, the things here are obviously not cheap, I won't let you spend money."
Mr. Li thought she was embarrassed, so he pretended to be angry and said, "Just go if I tell you to!"
Tang Qiu had no choice but to look around the shop and then randomly picked a stone seal.
"That's it."
Mr. Li took a look and knew that Tang Qiu was just trying to deal with him, but he didn't want him to spend money, so he smiled helplessly.
"Xiao Wang, how much is this? Put it on my account."
The middle-aged man hurriedly said, "Look at what you said. Since it's your descendant, and it's just such an insignificant little thing, it doesn't matter what money it has. Give it to your niece to play with."
Mr. Li said cheerfully, "I've bought a lot of things from you, so it's not a loss for you to give me one. Okay, take me to see the treasure you mentioned."
The middle-aged man immediately said, "Okay, you two follow me."
Tang Qiu followed Mr. Li to the inner court.
Inside is a set of pearwood chairs that are about a hundred years old. Judging from the degree of patina, it is obvious that this set of furniture has been well preserved.
"Please take a seat first, I'll get the things out."
As he said that, the middle-aged man went to the next room.
Less than two minutes later, the man came out holding a box.
He carefully placed the things on the table. Mr. Li could no longer sit still. He stood next to the man and looked inside nervously.
The man wearing gloves carefully opened the box, and inside lay a Buddha statue.
Mr. Li took a breath and looked at this thing. Just as he was about to say something, a group of people suddenly walked in.
"Hello, we have received a report that cultural relics are being traded here. Please cooperate with our investigation."
Tang Qiu saw that Mr. Li and Boss Wang's faces turned ugly in an instant and knew that they might have been cheated.
Several men in black Zhongshan suits walked in, looked at the Buddha statue on the table, looked at each other and nodded.
The policeman next to him immediately said, "Please come with us."
Then he said to the people behind him, "Take them all away."
As he said that, he took out handcuffs and walked towards the three people.
"Wait a minute! Who said this is a cultural relic?"
Tang Qiu suddenly spoke up, drawing everyone's attention to her. However, she calmly repeated, "You said this is a cultural relic. Do you have any evidence?"
One of them was a man in his thirties wearing a black Mao suit and glasses. He looked at Tang Qiu and said, "We are from the Cultural Relics Bureau. These have been identified as artifacts unearthed from the Han Dynasty. If you have any concerns, you can also ask a professional appraiser to come and confront us."
Tang Qiu shook his head: "This is indeed unearthed, but it is not an antique."
After Tang Qiu finished speaking, everyone looked at her with different expressions.
Old Master Li opened his mouth and wanted to say that this was indeed a cultural relic, but he brought her here originally to teach her a lesson, but he didn't expect that she would be implicated and arrested as well.
He was so ashamed that he couldn't speak. If Lao Yan knew about this, he would definitely scold him to death.
Boss Wang, who was standing by, was hoping for the best. He had called someone when the group of people came. At this time, Tang Qiu wasted some time by saying a few more words, and it would be easier when the people he called came.
But the people from the Cultural Relics Bureau would not believe it: "It's impossible, our appraisal cannot be wrong."
Although Tang Qiu could not identify, she herself was from ancient times, and her witchcraft was sensitive to things with a historical atmosphere. The older the history, the greater the witchcraft's reaction.
The key is that she has perspective, and she had seen through it when she was curious about what was in the box just now. She knew exactly what was inside.
Tang Qiu walked over, picked up the Buddha statue, turned it over, and the base was exposed.
He took the flashlight they had just used and shone it directly inside: "Did you see it?"
The bespectacled man from the Cultural Relics Bureau suddenly looked unhappy.
It clearly says: Replica of the year 2000
Tang Qiu put the thing back and said, "So it seems like we don't need to go with you, right?"
The leading policeman took away the handcuffs upon seeing this and said, "It seems we have misunderstood. In that case, we will leave first. Sorry for disturbing you."
Except for the man with glasses from the Cultural Relics Bureau, everyone else looked normal.
Watching them leave, Mr. Li was so scared that he sat on the wooden chair next to him.
Boss Wang wiped the sweat off his forehead and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I spent a lot of money to buy this thing. It looks like I have wasted my money."
Tang Qiu looked at the two and said, "I don't think this matter is that simple. Why did these people come as soon as you took out this thing? Do you two want to think about whether you have offended anyone?"
Boss Wang suddenly thought of something and his face turned pale. He bowed to Mr. Li and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Li. I was careless this time. This kind of thing will never happen again in the future."
Mr. Li waved his hands and said, "Forget it, you didn't mean it." After all, if he got into trouble, it wouldn't just be him.
After Tang Qiu and Mr. Li came out, Tang Qiu said, "Grandpa Li, do you really think that this matter is a problem with Boss Wang?"
Mr. Li didn't care much and said, "Well, what else can I do? I haven't offended anyone."
Tang Qiu shook his head: "Grandpa Li, it's obvious that someone figured out your preferences and set up a trap for you. And if I'm not mistaken, Boss Wang is just a pawn."
From the look on Boss Wang's face that Tang Qiu just saw, he didn't look angry or upset, but rather desperate. It was clear that he knew that he was a pawn deliberately lured by the higher-ups.
The purpose of the seduction is naturally Mr. Li.
Mr. Li still felt that this was unlikely: "I don't have anything that people would care about except some antiques. Who would frame an old man like me?"
