She doesn't want to pretend anymore

Considering that Mr. Yan is Professor Yan's relative, the person in charge had to remind him.

Perhaps, when the other party finds out that he is living a good life, he will try to curry favor with him by using his relationship as a relative.

By then, the search for relatives will lose its meaning.

"Well, you can help look up the other party's information, and we can ask around secretly without letting anyone know that we are looking for relatives."

Professor Yan made the decision for Yan Zhentian.

The person in charge then agreed.

He asked the person who took over the two items to come over and asked for the information.

However, after hearing who deposited the two items, he did not hide it from them.

"Lao Qiao sent it."

"Lao Qiao is a stall owner in the ghost market. The old man is very powerful, with a sharp eye, and he has a lot of good things in his hands."

"However, you won't be able to find him easily. He has many burrows. Once, someone wanted to rob him and followed him to steal his goods after he closed his stall. Not only did they fail to track him, but the group of people who followed him were also dealt with the next day."

"In fact, it's also in recent years that Lao Qiao has kept a low profile."

"If we go back a few decades, Lao Qiao was quite a remarkable man. He went up to the mountains and became a bandit. Before he became a bandit, someone in his family worked as a clerk in a pawnshop."

"Lao Qiao not only has a sharp eye, but some people also say that he has fought with others before."

The person in charge spoke quietly to Professor Yan.

These are all secrets in the circle.

The person in charge would occasionally entrust Professor Yan to issue an appraisal report, so I revealed it to him.

This is called reciprocity.

Professor Yan's connections are still very useful for those of them who do business.

"If it really passed through Lao Qiao's hands, then it would be very difficult for you to find the owner."

Yan Zhentian frowned. Isn’t this Old Qiao the man from whom his granddaughter bought the Eight Treasure Box?

"we know."

Professor Yan didn't say much, just thanked the person and left with Yan Zhentian.

"Let's go find Lao Qiao tonight. Since we've bought his things, we can take them to him and ask him when the time comes to see if he's willing to talk."

Yan Zhentian also knew that this was not his territory, and he was restricted in his investigation.

While asking Professor Yan for help, he also used his own connections to have someone investigate this Lao Qiao.

He still knows some old comrades-in-arms. Some of them have changed their careers and gone into business, but more of them have entered the system.

Therefore, Lao Qiao's information was soon placed in front of Yan Zhentian.

The person who came to see Yan Zhentian was the captain of a literary investigation team in charge of the Ghost Market.

This man is the son of an old comrade-in-arms.

Coincidentally, this person also investigated Lao Qiao. Although he suspected that he was related to tomb robbing, he could not find any evidence no matter how hard he investigated.

And Lao Qiao is not an unforgivable evil person.

Even though he makes a lot of money, he lives a very simple life.

He has been donating to poor people for a long time and regularly sends warmth to orphanages every year.

He is an old widower without a wife or children.

He would donate to the orphanage, but he didn't often go there to see the children.

I go there occasionally, and mostly just stare at the children in a daze.

The rumor in the orphanage was that Lao Qiao once had a son, but he died during that special period.

So, he was alone from then on.

Because he missed his children, he donated to many orphans.

Those orphans were grateful to Lao Qiao, and some even wanted to take him to live with them, but he refused.

"Such a person, so contradictory."

Manshu accompanied the two old men and listened to their talk.

“It’s very complicated.”

The captain of the literary investigation team is called Zhang Lan. Since he is the old man’s old comrade-in-arms, he takes this matter very seriously.
