Er Zhu skillfully operated his phone and after asking Wang Xiaomei a few more questions, he looked up at Li Mei and said,
"Sister Mei, will you accompany me to the antique street today?"
Li Mei, who was eating, almost choked. She looked at Er Zhu in confusion.
"Old Mrs. Wang invited me to her birthday banquet, and I need to buy her a birthday gift."
Just as Li Mei was about to ask, Er Zhu spoke first.
"But there are genuine and fake antiques on that antique street. What if you get cheated?"
Li Mei nodded slightly and was about to agree when she suddenly thought of a crucial point.
She had heard that antiques were very expensive. If she bought a fake, it would not be good. Although Er Zhu had money, it was not earned easily.
"It's okay, I won't be fooled."
Er Zhu smiled mysteriously, a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes.
Antiques, by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, would have a layer of spiritual light attached to their surfaces.
This spiritual light was invisible to others, but it was a piece of cake for him!
Because he had the Heavenly Eye!
Li Mei's eyes were full of doubt, but seeing Er Zhu's confident demeanor, she didn't say anything.
After tidying up briefly, Er Zhu and Li Mei went to the village entrance to wait for a car. As soon as they stood still, a tricycle stopped in front of them.
"Where are you two going?"
Villager Wang Pangzi smiled at Li Mei and Er Zhu, a hint of slyness in his eyes.
"To town!"
Li Mei sensed that Wang Pangzi was up to no good. Without even looking at him, she replied coldly.
"Then you don't need to wait. I just saw the bus break down halfway. Why don't I give you a ride?"
Wang Pangzi looked triumphantly at Li Mei and Er Zhu, his gaze glancing at his tricycle behind him.
Their village was a poor village. Forget about cars, there were very few tricycles like his!
He originally intended to take this opportunity to make some extra money, but he didn't expect to encounter Er Zhu and Li Mei!
Today was his chance to get rich!
"Alright, how much will it cost?"
Li Mei was stunned. She had intended to refuse, but thinking of the birthday gift, she had no choice but to get into the tricycle.
"Five hundred each!"
Wang Pangzi smiled, looking like the fish had taken the bait, and extended five fingers with a wicked grin.
"Five hundred each? Why don't you just rob us!"
Li Mei frowned and quickly retracted the leg she had just extended, looking at Wang Pangzi with some anger.
"There's nothing I can do. The town is so far from our village, I have to at least cover my gas money."
Wang Pangzi shrugged helplessly, feigning grievance as he explained.
Five hundred each, this price was specifically for Er Zhu and Li Mei!
Since they were the richest in the village, who else could he extort if not them?
He wasn't afraid of Li Mei knowing, as they had to go to town and would have to rent his car!
Er Zhu, standing by, saw Wang Pangzi's smug look and his calm eyes became a little cold.
Extorting money from him, did he really think he was a fool with more money than sense?
"Then we won't go. Er Zhu, you drive our car over."
Seeing Wang Pangzi's arrogant demeanor, Li Mei naturally guessed that this guy was doing it on purpose. She glanced at Er Zhu and said.
The reason she wanted to take the tricycle earlier was that she didn't want to be too conspicuous in front of the villagers, but she didn't expect these idiots to extort money!
Did they really think they were easy to bully?
"Your car? Hahaha, does Er Zhu have a car? Even if he does, with his intelligence, can he even drive?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Pangzi not only wasn't scared, but he laughed even louder. He glanced disdainfully at Er Zhu, his nose almost pointing to the sky.
A fool driving a car, if this got out, wouldn't people laugh their heads off!
Wang Pangzi laughed so hard that tears almost came out of his eyes, while Li Mei stood beside him, glaring at him fiercely.
"Widow Li, have you been infected by Er Zhu's foolishness? Hahaha... I'm dying of laughter!"
After laughing for an unknown amount of time, Wang Pangzi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and mocked loudly.
Wang Pangzi's voice was very loud, attracting quite a few villagers to stop and watch. Everyone covered their mouths and looked at Li Mei as if she were an idiot.
Li Mei, furious, was about to argue with Wang Pangzi when she saw Er Zhu driving a car at high speed.
"You're the one who's foolish. Er Zhu is so rich, he must have bought a car!"
Li Mei pointed at the black luxury car not far away, her eyes full of pride.
Following Li Mei's finger, everyone was stunned and looked at the scene before them.
A tall and imposing SUV was parked not far away. Although they didn't recognize the car, they knew it must be very valuable!
"My goodness, Er Zhu not only has a car, but he can also drive!"
Wang Pangzi stared with his small eyes, his eyes filled with shock and envy. The others also had grim expressions, looking at the luxury car with horror.
"Sister Mei, get in."
Er Zhu ignored Wang Pangzi and the others. He parked the car in front of Li Mei and smiled at her.
Li Mei got into the car with a smile, her heart filled with pride.
A broken tricycle dared to show off in front of them, how foolish!
Looking at the speeding black luxury car, Wang Pangzi felt a mixed bag of emotions.
Er Zhu was supposed to be a fool!
A fool was not only richer than them, but he also knew more than them!
He suddenly had a feeling that Er Zhu wasn't the fool, he was the one who was foolish!
"Wang Pangzi, why did you bother?"
"That's right, don't you forget, Er Zhu is the leader!"
"You, I think you're more foolish than Er Zhu!"
...
The villagers' words came one after another, like waves, constantly hitting his heart. A hint of regret flashed in Wang Pangzi's shocked eyes, but what was the use of regretting it now?
They arrived at the antique street without incident, Er Zhu and Li Mei soon reached the antique street. Looking at the lively street, Li Mei frowned slightly.
To be honest, it was her first time in such a place.
"Don't be afraid, just follow me."
Er Zhu saw the worry in Li Mei's eyes, he gently held her wrist and walked forward slowly.
Feeling the warmth of Er Zhu's hand on her wrist, Li Mei felt a strange sense of security.
This street was very prosperous, with many people in each shop. Some shops even displayed their antiques outside!
Looking at the clumsy fake antiques, Er Zhu shook his head speechlessly.
No wonder Wang Xiaomei said that the antique street was only suitable for picking up bargains, there were too many fakes!
Er Zhu looked around, searching slowly, while Li Mei was like Granny Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, as if a new world had opened up!
There were so many things here, it was really good to be in town!
After searching for an unknown period, Er Zhu was attracted by an ancient painting. The painting faintly glowed with spiritual light, it was undoubtedly an authentic piece!
Thinking of this, Er Zhu quickly walked towards the ancient painting.
Clang!
Just as Er Zhu was about to inquire about the price of the ancient painting, he was suddenly attracted by a loud noise. He turned his head, and his eyes became incredibly cold!
