Siheyuan: Smiling at the Birds

After nightfall, the city is still bustling with activity. After all, for the Xia people, the New Year is not over until the Little New Year is over.

Li Tianyou drove to a warehouse in the suburbs. After arriving at the warehouse, Li Tianyou waited for Sun Jiacai and Wang Defa to arrive.

Time flies. Li Tianyou glanced at the watch on his wrist and saw that the time they had agreed to meet, 11 o'clock, had already arrived.

Li Tianyou opened the warehouse door and looked into the distance. He could already see someone pulling a cart slowly coming towards the warehouse.

When everyone arrived at the door of the warehouse, Li Tianyou opened the door completely and let them all enter.

Wang Defa looked at Li Tianyou and said, "Chief Li, all the things have been brought here."

Li Tianyou looked at the boxes on several cars and some items that were too large to fit in the boxes and were therefore wrapped in cloth.

After Li Tianyou opened the Eye of Truth and checked them one by one, he did not find any fakes, and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, let someone unload the truck."

Wang Defa nodded and asked people to start unloading the truck, then said to Li Tianyou: "There are a few things. The owner said he doesn't want big black croaker, but wants to trade with yellow croaker."

Li Tianyou nodded and said, "Brother Sun told me, did you bring the things?"

Because when Li Tianyou used the Eye of Truth to check just now, he did not see the things that Sun Jiacai said.

Wang Defa said: "Those items are still outside. If you want them, Chief Li, and you can afford them, I'll have someone call them over now."

Li Tianyou smiled, walked directly to a corner of the warehouse, took out a black bag and said, "Here is the money for these things, Mr. Wang, please count them."

Wang Defa took the money, opened the bag, took a look at it and said: "Chief Li, I still trust you, so there's no need to count it." Then he closed the bag.

Sun Jiacai said: "Chief Li, do you need me to call someone over?"

Li Tianyou smiled and said, "Let Mr. Wang talk about the price first! Let's see if what I have prepared is enough."

Wang Defa said: "There are seven pieces in total, and the owner wants 100 large yellow croakers."

Li Tianyou nodded and said: "What are they?"

Wang Defa said: "There are two paintings by Tang Bohu, a jade cabbage, a night-shining pearl from the East China Sea, a pair of jade luminous cups, a Liao tri-color Arhat statue, and a Ru kiln azure-glazed tripod jar."

Li Tianyou was shocked when he heard this. These were national treasures that would be lost abroad in the future! The value of these things could no longer be measured by money.

Li Tianyou went directly to another corner and took out a hundred large yellow croakers from the space. He came to Wang Defa and said, "Here are a hundred large yellow croakers. Mr. Wang, please click on them."

Wang Defa looked at the leather bag and said in a trembling voice: "Chief Li, do you want all seven?"

Sun Jiacai also looked at Li Tianyou in shock. These were 100 large yellow croakers! Li Tianyou took them out as he said.

Sun Jiacai asked: "Old Wang, are those things you mentioned worth so much money?"

Wang Defa looked at Sun Jiacai and said, "Tang Bohu's paintings cannot be measured by money, what do you think?"

Sun Jiacai smacked his lips and said, "Antiques from prosperous times, gold from troubled times, the value of these things in the future can be imagined, so Chief Li, did you really collect them yourself?"

Wang Defa also looked at Li Tianyou, who said calmly: "Brother Sun, Mr. Wang, I can assure you that I collected all these things myself." Then he looked at Sun Jiacai and said: "I believe, Brother Sun, you have also seen the relationship between me and Yanran, right?"

Sun Jiacai nodded and said: "That female businessman from Hong Kong is actually your woman."

The reason why Li Tianyou knew that Sun Jiacai knew about the relationship between Zheng Yanran and himself was that when Li Tianyou told Sun Jiacai about Zheng Yanran's identity, Sun Jiacai did not ask what the relationship between Li Tianyou and Zheng Yanran was.

At first Li Tianyou was a little confused, but after Yu Haitang's reminder, Li Tianyou concluded that Sun Jiacai knew about his relationship with Zheng Yanran.

Sun Jiacai nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go call someone over."

Wang Defa was confused by what he heard, but he knew that he would not ask too much about things that he shouldn't ask about.

Not long after, Sun Jiacai and another man pulled a rickshaw into the warehouse. Li Tianyou looked at the items on the rickshaw.

He opened the Eye of Truth directly and found that they were all authentic. Li Tianyou was so excited that he was speechless.

These are all national treasures! And they are national treasures that will appear abroad in the future. (Some of them have been abroad for a long time, but Zidong wants to make up for it, so he added them to the book, so please be gentle with your criticism.)

At this moment, Li Tianyou suddenly remembered a museum abroad, where all the exhibits were cultural relics from the Xia Kingdom.

Whenever Li Tianyou thought of the exhibits in the museum, he would feel an inexplicable sadness in his heart. After seeing so many of them, his nose would always feel sore and he could not help but shed tears.

Li Tianyou looked at the seven national treasures in front of him, and he still felt a little sad. If it weren't for him, these seven pieces would have appeared in a museum abroad in the future.

How would the Chinese people feel when they saw these national treasures at that time?

Li Tianyou didn't dare to think about it. He was afraid, really afraid. Li Tianyou looked at Wang Defa and said, "Mr. Wang, if you continue to collect, I promise you that I will build a personal museum in the future. All the things today and the previous ones will appear in my personal museum and will never flow overseas."

Wang Defa was stunned when he heard this, and quickly grabbed Li Tianyou's hand and said, "Chief Li, are you telling the truth?"

Sun Jiacai also looked at Li Tianyou in shock. You know, if a museum was really built, it would be impossible for Li Tianyou to sell these things.

In that case, Li Tianyou would not get back the money he spent today and before.

Especially since Li Tianyou asked Wang Defa to continue collecting these things, how could Sun Jiacai not be shocked?

Li Tianyou nodded and said seriously: "Mr. Wang, everything I said is true."

Wang Defa said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, okay, I will help you continue to collect them, and I will also try my best to help you lower the price, Chief Li."

Sun Jiacai also said: "Chief Li, I will continue to keep it a secret for you."

Li Tianyou understood that Sun Jiacai was talking about himself and Zheng Yanran.

Li Tianyou nodded and said, "Brother Sun, Tianyou believes in you." He turned to Wang Defa and said, "Mr. Wang, as long as it is authentic, don't worry about the price."

Wang Defa and Sun Jiacai also nodded. Li Tianyou said a few more words to them, and they left with their people.

After everyone left, Li Tianyou put all the antiques and national treasures into the system space, locked the warehouse door, and drove the truck to the steel mill.

When Li Tianyou was about to reach the steel mill, he put the supplies on the car and drove directly to the steel mill.

Li Tianyou drove the car to the warehouse and asked the workers who had been waiting for a long time to start unloading the car, while he rode his bicycle back to the courtyard.

After Li Tianyou returned home, the two girls were still awake. When they saw Li Tianyou coming back, they quickly got up and poured water for him to wash his face and hands.

After Li Tianyou finished washing, Gao Meiyu asked, "Brother Tianyou, is everything going well?"

Li Tianyou excitedly hugged Gao Meiyu, took a bite and laughed: "It went better than I thought, and the food is better than I thought."

Zheng Yanran also said happily: "Brother Tianyou, what are these things? What makes you so happy?"

Gao Meiyu's face turned red when Li Tianyou suddenly bit her. But she still looked at Li Tianyou curiously.

Li Tianyou smiled and said, "National treasures! They are all national treasures! They can no longer be described as priceless, because they can no longer be measured by money."

Zheng Yanran was shocked when she heard this: "Brother Tianyou, can I take a look?"

Gao Meiyu was also shocked and her mouth slightly opened. The thing that could make Li Tianyou say that must be a rare treasure.

However, Li Tianyou shook his head and said, "Not yet. I have put them in a secret place. I will let you see them later if you want."

Gao Meiyu did say: "Those who deliver the goods will inevitably have some thoughts. Brother Tianyou, have you hidden all the things?"

Zheng Yanran also said: "That's right, since ancient times, money has moved people's hearts. Brother Tianyou, have you hidden those things?"

Li Tianyou restrained his smile and said, "Don't worry, no one can find the place where I hid it except me, and even if others know about it, they can't take it out."

What Li Tianyou said was the truth. He hid it in his own system space and they couldn't find it even if they worked themselves to death.

After hearing what Li Tianyou said, the two women felt relieved.

Zheng Yanran said: "Brother Tianyou, then we are ready to go to Hong Kong."

Li Tianyou nodded and said, "Well, there is nothing else to do. We just have to wait to go to Xiangjiang."

After hearing what Li Tianyou said, Zheng Yanran jumped for joy and said, "Great, I can finally go back to Hong Kong and finish my wedding with Brother Tianyou."

Li Tianyou looked at Zheng Yanran and smiled. He suddenly felt a little sorry for Zheng Yanran. After all, he left Zheng Yanran alone in Hong Kong.

Li Tianyou pulled Zheng Yanran into his arms and said, "Yanran, I have wronged you for a few years. After a few years, I will go to Hong Kong and make it up to you."

Gao Meiyu curled her lips and said, "Brother Tianyou, you go to Hong Kong for a week every month. Why do you make it seem like a life-and-death separation?"

Zheng Yanran also smiled and said, "Yes, Brother Tianyou, it's not like you haven't come for several years. Don't be like this. You can feel sorry for Yanran, and Yanran will feel sorry for you too. Yanran doesn't want to see you sad, Brother Tianyou."

Li Tianyou smiled when he heard this, and hugged the two girls at the same time and said: "Let's try hard tonight and see who gets pregnant first."

Gao Meiyu blushed when she heard this, and thought to herself, I must have been pregnant first, as I am the eldest wife.

Zheng Yanran's eyes lit up when she heard this. She looked at Li Tianyou and said, "Brother Tianyou, you can't be partial to one person at night! Otherwise it's unfair."

Li Tianyou understood what Zheng Yanran meant and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will treat you fairly tonight."

Gao Meiyu snorted coldly and said, "Maybe I'm already pregnant. After all, I've been with Brother Tianyou the longest."

Li Tianyou suddenly felt overwhelmed and picked up the two women and walked towards the inner room.

The two women also screamed in surprise at Li Tianyou's sudden action.
