Chapter 46 The richest man
Li Yongle began to regret, but there was no regret medicine in this world. He did too much before, and even if he asked Lin Yun now, he would still not change the result.
Because the owner of the gambling stone shop was staring at him, Li Yongle didn't dare to have any other thoughts, so he could only pay the money obediently and then left the gambling stone street in a daze.
This situation is common in gambling stone streets, but although some people feel sorry for it, no one comes out to help.
The boss simply decided that after Li Yongle left, he directly joined hands with other owners of gambling stone shops to set a rule, that is, the Li family of gambling stones must not enter gambling stones forever.
When the news came back to the Li family, everyone in the Li family was furious and wished they could kill Li Yongle alive, but now it was useless to do these things. In the end, they could only swallow this breath and wonder if they should continue living in another city?
They are a family of gambling stones. Although they have some other businesses, their main source of income is gambling stones. But now they can’t even enter the gambling stone street. How can they live?
I can only change to a city where no one knows them and can make a living.
At this moment, in the gambling stone shop, Lin Yun finished choosing stones with helpless expressions. He is now choosing stones not only to improve his carving level, but also to add background to the company, so he has high requirements for jade.
But what disappointed him was that although this gambling stone shop had several good raw stones, it was far from meeting his requirements, so he had to give up.
Seeing Lin Yun come out empty-handed, the boss couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He also thought that Lin Yun could cut out a piece of top-quality jade, and his gambling stone shop would definitely become famous. At least in a short time, it would welcome many customers. But now it seems that this wish is destined to be disappointed.
But he didn't think so much. He took the things left by Li Yongle, came to Lin Yun and said respectfully: "Mr. Lin, this is what you won by betting on stones just now."
He was holding a check in his hand and the jade that Lin Yun had just cut out.
As for what Li Yongle cut out, he didn't take it out at all. It was not because he wanted to be greedy for the little money, but because he knew that for Lin Yun, he would not care about that low-quality jade at all.
Lin Yun just glanced at Xu Tan and said in a deep voice: "Save the antique shop for me, keep the other things, remember what I said."
After saying that, he left directly. He had won a lot of things just now, and the total amount was nearly 20 million, but he didn't get a penny and gave it to Xu Tan.
With Lin Yun’s current value, he really doesn’t care about this little money, but he is not as generous as giving it to others directly. It’s just that Xu Tan’s experience is too similar to his, so he wants to help.
After all, after being cheated by Zhao Kang, he was completely disappointed. If someone could help him at that time, Li Youqi wouldn't have to suffer so much.
It’s a pity that he didn’t wait, so now he encounters something similar and wants to help.
I think after this incident, Xu Tan should learn a lesson. Even if he bet on stones, he would not have all his value.
"Thank you, King Shi." Looking at his back, Xu Tan knelt down and cried.
He is the biggest beneficiary today, and all this was given to him by Lin Yun, otherwise he might have to find a place to commit suicide.
So while thanking him, he also made up his mind to work harder in the future and constantly improve his strength and status. He did not want to stand at a high level, but only wanted to help Lin Yun.
Lin Yun did not expect that his unintentional action this time would gain a powerful helper later. When the two met again, Xu Tan gave him a huge surprise.
As soon as Lin Yun walked out of the gambling stone shop, he was about to change his house and continued to search, but a middle-aged man came over and asked tentatively: "Mr. Lin is interested in antique shops. Do you understand this too?"
"Understand a little." Lin Yun responded honestly. He had no research on antiques. He just came into contact with some knowledge when working in an antique shop, and could probably tell the truth.
The middle-aged man looked happy and said quickly: "Mr. Lin, I have a thing that looks very good, but I am a little confused, so I want to ask Mr. Lin for help. I wonder if Mr. Lin is free?"
Palm, this is antique jargon, I just want to ask Lin Yun to help me take a look.
Lin Yun suddenly narrowed his eyes. This middle-aged man was dressed in ordinary clothes, but his aura was very strong. He was obviously at a high position for a long time. Things that could be taken out by such people must be extraordinary.
He also became interested and said, "Please lead the way."
The middle-aged man took Lin Yun into his car and then introduced: "Mr. Lin, introduce yourself. My name is Pei Donglai, and Mr. Lin just calls me Lao Pei."
Lin Yun had long guessed that the middle-aged man had an extraordinary identity, but when he heard this name, he couldn't help but be shocked.
Because of the name Pei Donglai, he is so familiar with it. It can even be said that people in the entire Changqing City are very familiar with it. This is the richest man in Changqing, with assets worth tens of billions of yuan and can be ranked as a name in the province.
But no one would have thought that such a big shot would appear in the antique street and dressed so casually that he didn't even bring a bodyguard around him.
Lin Yun naturally did not dare to be careless about such a big shot and quickly said, "Mr. Pei, I didn't recognize you just now. Please forgive me for offending you."
"Mr. Lin is so polite. I came out alone this time just to relax. Mr. Lin doesn't have to be too reserved." Pei Donglai said casually.
He is a local business and is just a hobby of antiques. He doesn't have to rely on Lin Yun to do anything for him, so although he is polite, he doesn't speak too much.
As the two of them talked, they arrived at Pei Donglai's office, but at this moment, there was a beautiful woman in the office holding a baby in her arms and constantly coaxing her.
The baby didn't know what was wrong, and he kept crying, no matter how the beautiful woman coaxed her, he couldn't stop.
"Hong'er still cries?" Pei Donglai asked with concern. He had a middle-aged child, so he was naturally not good at it, but the child didn't know what was going on. He kept crying and no matter how he coaxed him, it didn't work.
But after going to the hospital for examination, the result was that the child was very healthy and had nothing to do.
In desperation, Pei Donglai had to bring the child back and invited some monks and Taoist priests to do it, but it still did not improve.
The beautiful woman shook her head helplessly. Seeing that he had brought the guests, she quickly said, "You guys talk about the matter first, I'll go inside to coax the children."
Pei Donglai's office has a suite, and it seems that it should be a place to rest. The beautiful woman had to go in directly, but at this moment, Lin Yun suddenly said, "Madam Pei, can I let my child hug?"
"This..." Mrs. Pei looked embarrassed. For the sake of this child, she didn't know how much hardship she had eaten or how much medicine she drank. She finally got pregnant and gave birth. She didn't know how much baby she was, but now she didn't even know Lin Yun's identity and wanted to hold the child. This was too abrupt.
Even Pei Donglai frowned and asked in surprise: "Mr. Lin, are you?"
Lin Yun also discovered just now that something seemed wrong with the child, but he couldn't say the specific one, so he could only say helplessly: "I can't say it well, I just want to see it. If Mr. Pei can trust me, let me see it. Maybe I can make the child stop crying."
Pei Donglai's face changed. He didn't know Lin Yun very well. He had heard of Lin Yun's name and was not very clear about Lin Yun's character.
If something happens to pass the child rashly, even if Lin Yun is killed, it will not be enough to vent his anger.
It’s just that the child is suffering so hard that such a small person spends all his energy on it every day. If this continues, even if the child can survive, there will be problems with his health.
He hesitated for a long time before gritting his teeth and taking the child to Lin Yun, "Mr. Lin, I can trust you, please help me."
That being said, after Lin Yun took the child, his eyes were always focused on Lin Yun and he did not dare to be careless at all.
He was even more prepared. If Lin Yun had bad intentions, he would snatch the child first, then call the bodyguard to come in, and tear Lin Yun into pieces.
Lin Yun didn't care. He held the child in his hand, but did not look at it. Instead, he stared at the long-lived lock hanging on his chest, and asked in confusion: "Mr. Pei, is this a Han Dynasty thing?"
"Mr. Lin has a good eye. This is a thing from the Eastern Han Dynasty. It is said that Emperor Shang Liu Long was wearing it closely. I was able to get it by chance. I took it with this child, and I hope he can live a long life."
Pei Dong said that he was modest, but his face was full of pride. The Eastern Han Dynasty was too old and there were very few things left, let alone things in the palace.
But he was able to get what the emperor had worn closely, which was not only financial resources, but also a symbol of power and status.
But Lin Yun's expression changed drastically when he heard this. He grabbed the long-lived lock and threw it at Pei Donglai's feet. He said angrily: "Non-no, do you want him to live a hundred years old, or do you want him to die prematurely?"
Seeing how serious he said, Pei Donglai was not angry and just asked, "Mr. Lin, what do you mean?"
"What does it mean? I am saving your son's life." Lin Yun's face was cold and it took him a long time to say seriously: "Emperor Shang Liu Long, who was raised by the people since he was a child, succeeded to the throne at the age of 100, died before he died at less than one year. He can be said to be the shortest-lived emperor in history."
"And this golden lock is his body wearing item. It has absorbed a strong resentment and was buried with him. I don't know how strong the resentment is, and even adults may not be able to withstand it. But you wear it for a child. Isn't this wanting his life?"
Lin Yun has been a top student since he was a child and is quite interested in history, so he knows so clearly.
When he saw the golden lock on Pei Hong's neck just now, he was just suspicious at first, but after Pei Dong said it, it became confident.
People in the world only know that antiques are good things, but they don’t understand that antiques are divided into categories. If they are unearthed or passed down from generation to generation, there will naturally be no problem.
However, even if you collect these things unearthed from ancient tombs, you must be very careful, because if you are not careful, you may cause trouble for yourself.
But Pei Donglai, Ma Daha, actually put it on his child directly. Fortunately, he discovered it in time, otherwise Pei Hong would probably not live to one year.
"This, this..." Pei Donglai was speechless. He was middle-aged and wanted to get a good start. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen?
Of course, he didn't believe it more. It was an era in which no one believed those superstitious things. It was just that Lin Yun said it was difficult to refute it.
"Hong'er stopped crying." But at this moment, Mrs. Pei suddenly exclaimed and ran to Lin Yun quickly, all of whom were playing with Pei Hong.
