Chapter 449 - 449 Danger
449 Danger
Three days later, Xia Tangxin called and said that the fruit store was open for business. She even asked Qin Xi how she did it.
Qin Xi said simply, “I just gave Wen Chen a new mother!”
Although Xia Tangxin did not know what this meant, she did not care because she knew that there was nothing Qin Xi could not solve.
Qin Xi stayed in Yangshan City for three days and b.u.mped into someone in a high-end restaurant. It was Xu Guochao, the president of a famous a.s.sociation in the antique world and the old man who had once spoken up for her.
Elder Xu also saw her. At that time, he was talking to a man in his forties. He subconsciously looked over. When he saw that it was Qin Xi, his smile became much more sincere.
Since they had already met, Qin Xi had no reason to pretend not to see him. She stood up and walked over to greet him politely.
“Elder Xu, we meet again. I didn’t expect to see you here!”
Xu Guochao stood up with a smile. “I thought you had forgotten about me. Hahaha, why are you in Yangshan City?”
Seeing that Xu Guochao had stood up, the man sitting opposite him was slightly surprised. He quickly stood up and asked, “Elder Xu, this is…”
“Oh, this is a young friend I know in Luoping City. Her surname is Qin. Don’t underestimate her. She’s an expert at appraising raw stones.”
Elder Xu turned to look at Qin Xi with an amiable smile. “Qin Xi, this is the leader of the Cultural Bureau. His surname is Jiang. You can call him Uncle Jiang.”
Qin Xi called him Uncle Jiang humbly.
Jiang Baili quickly nodded with a smile. “Miss Qin, are you from Luoping? What brings you here? If there’s anything you need, feel free to ask me.”
Of course, he was just being polite in front of Elder Xu.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, Elder Xu immediately retorted, “There’s no need to look for you. If She needs anything, she can look for me.”
Jiang Baili was stunned and smiled awkwardly. “Yes, yes, yes. Elder Xu is right.”
Elder Xu waved his hand and said, “Alright, don’t just stand here. Miss Qin, let’s eat together. Order whatever you want to eat.”
Qin Xi thought for a moment and sat down.
At this moment, Elder Xu thought of the raw stone he had bought from Qin Xi and smiled.
“Miss Qin, the raw stone you sold me last time turned out to be a jade. It’s a very pure green jade. My wife likes it very much. She said that I’ve finally bought the right one after buying raw stones for so many years. Miss Qin, did you specialize in appraising stones? Why are you so good at it? The accuracy is almost 95%. If you go to stone gambling next time, remember to call me. I like stone gambling the most.”
“I didn’t expect Miss Qin to be so capable. If there’s a chance, I want to go too,” Jiang Baili said casually.
“That’s right. Last time, Miss Qin even got a golden silk red jade, spring ribbon, and a fist-sized imperial jade. She is very impressive.”
Just as the three of them were chatting, Qin Xi suddenly felt an extremely dangerous aura. She subconsciously shouted, “Get down.”
After all, Elder Xu was old. How could he react so quickly? On the other hand, Jiang Baili bent down and hid under the table.
At the critical moment, Qin Xi quickly pressed Elder Xu down. A steel arrow pierced into the back of the Elder Xu ‘s seat.
