149: Chapter 149 Your sister will keep it safe for you
"Whether you want to sell it or not, you have to sell it this time!"
The fire in Song Shu's heart could no longer be contained.
Seeing that the shop assistant had already locked the door, he pulled out a cane from the side and gave those two men a sound beating.
"How dare you dig up my Song family's Ancestral Grave! And sell it to me, of all people! See if I don't beat you to death!"
In terms of fighting ability, Song Shu's obese figure was definitely no match for these two Tomb Raiders.
But he had caught them by surprise, and for a moment, he even had the upper hand.
Just as the Tomb Raiders were reacting and about to fight back, Lin Xiao shouted loudly from the side: "The police are here!"
The Tomb Raiders were startled; they immediately stopped caring about the treasure and turned to run.
Unfortunately, the door was already locked.
By the time they frantically managed to open the lock, the police and market administrators were already waiting outside.
Song Shu rushed over to the police and market administrators and launched into a ten-minute-long accusation.
Actually, in places like this, many people turn a blind eye to the origins of treasures just to make money.
Unfortunately, those two Tomb Raiders were just too unlucky this time; they had run straight into the actual owner.
Soon, they were taken away.
"Benefactor! You..."
Song Shu returned to the shop, grabbing Lin Xiao's hand with tears of gratitude.
But he realized that when he wanted to ask about that voice from just now, his throat felt like it was blocked by something, and he couldn't make a single sound.
He was a smart man, and he quickly realized something.
He switched to a different way of phrasing it.
"Benefactor, if you hadn't shouted that the police were here just now, I'm afraid I would have been beaten quite badly, and those treasures from my Ancestral Grave would likely have gone missing!"
"Ah, it's a small matter, a small matter."
Lin Xiao waved his hand dismissively.
"This is no small matter. How about this: pick whatever you like in the shop, and take everything you fancy!"
Song Shu was going all out this time.
This time, Lin Xiao hadn't just helped him save a mere 1.7 million; the point was that he had caught the Tomb Raiders!
After all, he didn't know how many things the Tomb Raiders had brought out from his Ancestral Grave. If he had let them get away, the other items would never be recovered!
Seeing Song Shu being so generous, Lin Xiao couldn't help but rub his hands together.
"Brother Fatty, then I won't stand on ceremony!"
"No need to stand on ceremony with me!"
Song Shu was still in an excited state and clearly hadn't realized the severity of the situation.
Lin Xiao directly integrated the Appraisal Card from the system and began to look at the treasures in the shop one by one.
He soon discovered that although Song Shu was very confident in his shop's items, there were still fakes among them.
It wasn't Song Shu's fault; these fakes were imitated exceptionally well.
If it weren't for the Superpower enhancement that Lin Xiao had, it would probably be very difficult to identify them.
[This one is real, this one too, ah, this one is no good, this whole row is no good.]
[Heh, if I take all the genuine items, Brother Fatty will probably cry.]
Indeed, after hearing Lin Xiao's words, Song Shu was first surprised that he had misjudged so many items.
Then, seeing Lin Xiao picking out all the genuine items, his heart began to bleed.
But he was a dignified man; of course, his word was his bond, and he kept his promises!
No matter how much it pained him, he absolutely could not go back on his word.
Soon, Lin Xiao had picked out all the genuine items in the shop.
"Except for this one and this one, the others..."
Lin Xiao deliberately kept him in suspense, "Put them all back."
Song Shu subconsciously waved his hand, "Wrap them all up for my brother... Huh? You don't want these?"
"If I take them all, how will you do business? As for the others I didn't pick, you should verify them carefully; those don't seem quite right."
Lin Xiao had been watching Song Shu's expression and could see his heartache.
At the same time, he admired his character; he was a man of his word.
So, how could he possibly rely on a small favor to fleece this sheep completely in one go?
"Brother, Benefactor, you really are..."
Song Shu's eyes turned red with emotion, and he couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time.
He personally and carefully wrapped up the two items Lin Xiao had selected and solemnly handed them into Lin Xiao's hands.
"Benefactor, if you have any needs in the future, I, Fatty, will certainly go through fire and water for you!"
...
After leaving Song Shu's shop, Lin Xiao took Lin Chuge to wander around the antique market some more.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Appraisal Card was still effective, he picked up quite a few bargains at many stalls and shops.
After walking around for half a day, he had a bountiful harvest.
Lin Chuge specifically had someone drive over a van to carefully load all the items inside.
Lin Xiao looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated, "Big Sister, where are these being sent to?"
"Some to the company, some to the house," Lin Chuge said frankly.
"Ah? Then, aren't you going to leave some for me?"
Lin Xiao twitched his mouth awkwardly.
He had originally planned to take a few of the items he'd picked up as bargains, have Song Shu help resell them, make a big profit first, and fill up his little treasury.
Lin Chuge chuckled, patted his shoulder, and said earnestly: "A-Xiao, you are still young. Big Sister will keep them safe for you, and I'll give them to you when you grow up."
Still young?
Lin Xiao opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to squeeze out a sentence.
"Sister, you aren't even willing to humor me anymore."
