Chapter 158 One Million

Looking at Huang Boyuan, who has aged much in an instant, I suddenly discovered that this man who has been involved in the business world and spent twenty years from a small salesman to an executive director of a listed company also has his own fragile side.

He is not always strong, and his broad and strong shoulders are slowly being bent by the burden.

After a long time, Huang Boyuan got up from the ground. He put the scroll away, wiped the corners of his eyes gently with his fingers, looked at me and asked: "How did you know the scroll was hidden here? Even I can hardly remember what happened twenty years ago. Cleared."

I didn't answer directly, but said softly: "Your daughter Huang Xue told me that she had a dream last night about something that happened twenty years ago."

"Huang Xue..." At the mention of this name, Huang Boyuan's eyes showed a bit of pain.

"You should spend more time with her when you have time. After all, you are her father." I don't know why Huang Boyuan named his daughter Huang Xue, but the meaning does not seem to be what Huang Xue said himself.

Seeing Huang Boyuan nodding, I tried to say to him again: "If you trust me, I hope that this painting will be kept by me. The Double-Faced Buddha has been looking for it. Those people are unscrupulous, and some methods are beyond your imagination. "

After being silent for a long time, Huang Boyuan finally spoke: "What do you want? Money? Status? Real estate?"

He didn't mention anything about the scroll, but talked about other things.

"You've already paid me, so..."

"You won't refuse. I will give you ten times the reward, one million! Find those people and find the Double-Faced Buddha!" ​​He was a little excited, but the hand holding the scroll was very gentle.

"I only want this painting." I had already seen Huang Boyuan's thoughts. He seemed unwilling to hand over the painting to me.

The room filled with shabby furniture became quiet, and Huang Boyuan's hands touched each piece of furniture: "Some of the things in here are made by myself, and some are gifts from relatives and friends. They are all old things, but I just can't let go of them." Throw it away, when I see them, I seem to think of Wanjun."

"Perhaps you should move on. Protecting the living is what you should do."

Huang Boyuan shook his head and put the scroll in his arms: "You don't understand this feeling. You don't know how to cherish it if you haven't lost it. Go ahead and tell Secretary Zhang what you want. Our agreement is still valid until the commission is completed. I will pay you ten times more later."

"You still don't understand." I knew in my heart that this scroll was of great significance to Huang Boyuan, but those who were spying on the scroll were extremely vicious fanatics, and their methods were beyond Huang Boyuan's ability to guard against. If I let him keep it, he would probably end up... Stolen by Lu Xing.

"You are the one who doesn't understand. You don't know Wanjun's position in my heart at all." Huang Boyuan waved his hand to interrupt me: "Secretary Zhang, send him away and cancel all the afternoon's schedule. I want to be alone. Be quiet for a while.”

Secretary Zhang, who was standing outside the door, came in with two bodyguards: "Mr. Gao, please."

"You will regret it." I glanced at Huang Boyuan, who was sitting alone in the back of the room, sighed and left with Secretary Zhang.

Secretary Zhang drove Bai Qi and I directly back to Tingtang Road. When we got off the car, he stopped me again: "Mr. Gao, wait a moment!"

"What's wrong?"

I looked back and Secretary Zhang took out two bottles of hard-covered liquor from the trunk: "The recipe for your Tongxian wine has been cracked, but because some of the medicinal materials are relatively precious, it has not been put into mass production yet. This is I made it on a trial basis, Director Huang specially asked me to leave two bottles for you."

"Thank you."

After taking the liquor, my hand was grabbed by Secretary Zhang again. He took out his mobile phone and a check from his pocket: "On the way here, Director Huang sent a message specifically asking me to give you this 200,000 yuan to help him." The reward for finding that painting.”

"I'll accept the wine. You take back the check. That painting doesn't belong to him. He will understand it in a short time." I took the liquor and entered the shop without looking back, leaving Secretary Zhang beside the luxury car in a daze. .

He looked at my peeling advertising sign, then at my rattling rolling shutter door, and finally his eyes fell on the check in his hand: "This is two hundred thousand."

After entering the store, I put down the bottle of wine and took a shower. After taking a shower, I sat cross-legged on the second floor and practiced the Miaozhenxin method.

After a few great weeks, I feel refreshed, the Du Channel is unobstructed, and the energy is flowing among the hundreds of meridians. What’s even more gratifying is that my thoughts are inexplicably strengthened, and it is very easy to introduce the energy into the body. This may also be related to falling into a dream.

After I finished practicing, I put on a brand new suit and tied my tie awkwardly. I looked at myself in the mirror and touched the tip of my nose in embarrassment: "Why are you still a little nervous?"

At 6:50 in the evening, a Buick Regal parked outside the door. Tie Ningxiang, wearing casual clothes, walked into the store and immediately saw me, who was restless and walking around the house.

"Hey, what's going on today with the calm detective? Are you shy?"

"Walking helps me think. You think I'm upset right now, but I'm actually very calm." I found a good-looking bag and put a bottle of trial Tongxian wine in it: "Are you going now? "

"Don't take the things, there's no need." Tie Ningxiang saw that I was still holding the gift in my hand, covered her mouth and laughed.

"How about that? Let's go quickly, don't keep your family waiting."

I walked out of the store with Tie Ningxiang. Before getting into the car, she stopped me again: "Gao Jian, you rarely wear suits, right?"

"What's wrong?"

"That's not how a tie is tied." Tie Ningxiang covered her face helplessly, walked up to me, put a pair of jade hands on my chest, untied the tie and tied it again. Her movements were very gentle, like a virtuous wife, Full of femininity: "Well, it looks much more pleasing to the eye."

I was speechless all the way. When I arrived at the community where Tie Ningxiang's parents lived, I suddenly felt a little regretful.

I always thought that Tie Ningxiang should be considered a working-class person, but when I went to where her parents lived, I saw that this was one of the few high-end residential areas in Jiangcheng, and Jiang Chen and Ye Bing's new house was here.

"Senior sister, what did your family do before?" I followed Tie Ningxiang and walked together in the empty underground parking lot.

"They are all policemen, but each generation is not as good as the last." Tie Ningxiang smiled playfully: "Grandpa is from the Provincial Public Security Bureau. Before my dad retired, he was the deputy bureau of Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau. But now I have become an ordinary person. Captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade."

"No wonder you became the captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade in your twenties. Your background is a bit scary!"

"Gao Jian, what do you mean? Do you want to spar with me?"

"Forget it..." I had heard the story of Tie Ningxiang when I was in the police academy. She could knock down the instructor in three minutes in unrestricted free fighting. She ranked first in the school in mid-range shooting and her bullet hole deviation was zero. Point within three centimeters.

"I was born into a family of police officers. No wonder I was ordered to lead Xing Shensha."

Tie Ningxiang and I walked in the community for five or six minutes before arriving at the door of her parents' house. We pushed the door open and entered. The smell of food floated in the house, and the voice of Tie's mother nagging Deputy Director Tie: "You Move quickly, the fragrance will be condensed and you will be back with someone soon, you are so annoying, you really don’t look like a man."

The Deputy Railway Bureau had no temper at all in front of his wife. He was busy and brought out one or two dishes from the kitchen from time to time.

The dining table was fully arranged, and Yiyi sat next to it and watched TV.

"Mom and Dad, I'm back." It didn't matter what Tie Ningxiang said. Tie's mother, Deputy Director Tie, and Yiyi all stopped what they were doing and ran over.

"It's you! The guy who went to the wrong house!"

"At first I thought you were looking at our daughter wrong, that's it!"

"Uncle, come and sit down. What do you want to drink?"

Surrounded by three people, my muscles were so stiff that I didn’t even know which leg to move first: "Hello, uncle and aunt..."

Tie Ningxiang’s parents were very enthusiastic and kept bringing me food as soon as the food was served. They seemed to have misunderstood my relationship with Tie Ningxiang.

During this period, I touched Tie Ningxiang lightly, but she completely ignored my request for help and looked at me with a look of excitement. Sometimes she couldn't help but snickered a few times.

"Gao Jian, you saved Yiyi before, and you saved Ningxiang this time. It's a great favor to our family. I'll drink this glass of wine first."

"Don't dare, don't dare." I quickly stood up and clinked glasses with the deputy iron bureau chief, but I was used to drinking Tongxian wine and drinking other wines didn't feel right.

I saw that the deputy iron bureau was also a good drinker, so he took the opportunity to take out the bottle of Tongxian wine he was trying to make.
