Chapter 76 was mistaken for 5...
It's no secret that Feng Chaoyang held a small auction at the store a few days ago.
Moreover, in order to promote it, he deliberately posted a message on his WeChat Moments.
I shared the auction items from that day on my WeChat Moments so that all my friends and regular customers could see them.
That same day, many of his long-time customers called him, asking him to contact them again next time.
This is a marketing method used by Feng Chaoyang to promote and retain old customers.
As a regular customer, Li Hao naturally saw the post on WeChat Moments and even secretly drooled over it.
For an antique enthusiast like him, he pays close attention to what's happening in the industry.
Unexpectedly, the person who supplied the goods was this ordinary-looking young man in front of him.
He thought to himself, "No wonder he bought so many bulletproof vests. This young man's methods are pretty wild too!"
Chen Huai'an smiled and said, "Brother Li, you saw those collectibles too? That Ming blue and white porcelain plate was bought by President Zhou of Jiuding. If you're interested, I'll send you a message."
Relationships are built over time, and naturally, the two became friends.
If I ever want to get my hands on any contraband in China in the future, this guy in front of me will definitely be of help.
This is also why Chen Huai'an took the initiative to talk about antiques and found a common interest.
When it comes to antiques, that's his domain.
Li Hao scratched his buzz cut awkwardly: "I don't have the money to participate in collections of that level. But if you ever have any small items worth a few hundred thousand in the future, you must give your older brother a chance to participate."
Everyone was a seasoned professional, and before they knew it, the two of them had started calling each other "older brother" and "little brother."
"No problem!" Chen Huai'an readily agreed.
At the same time, he revealed his true intentions and offered a bait: "I happen to have a Qing Dynasty porcelain brush holder, valued at 100,000. If you're interested, we can ask Brother Feng to act as an intermediary another day."
To put it bluntly, it means having Feng Chaoyang act as an intermediary, having him conduct the appraisal, and charging him some consultation fees.
This also helps avoid buying counterfeit goods.
Li Hao was overjoyed upon hearing this: "Interested!"
Before I could even ask when I would be able to see the goods, a faint voice reached my ears.
"Judging from your demeanor, you must have been in the military for many years, right? The calluses on your hands suggest you're not an ordinary soldier, are you?"
A hint of doubt flashed in Lin Hao's eyes, wondering why the topic of joining the army had suddenly come up.
"Yes, I served as a reconnaissance soldier in the army for several years."
"Then I'd like to make a deal with you, brother."
"What kind of deal?"
"I'd like to trade my pen holder for a reconnaissance soldier training manual, not one of those roadside cheap ones!"
"Um?"
Li Hao frowned, carefully examining the young man in front of him, a hint of wariness and doubt flashing in his narrowed eyes.
Trading antiques for reconnaissance training manuals would seem strange to anyone.
In the past, the training subjects for reconnaissance soldiers would certainly not be disclosed to the public.
But after so many years, true military enthusiasts can learn about most of the facts through various channels.
These things are not disclosed to outsiders, but they are easy for spies to obtain.
It's safe to assume that intelligence agencies around the world have already thoroughly mastered the training subjects for reconnaissance soldiers.
Moreover, reconnaissance soldiers are just regular troops. Even if a spy wanted to steal military secrets, they should have inquired about special operations forces at the campaign level, such as "Jiaolong" and "Leishen".
That's why the proposed deal puzzled him more than surprised him.
Chen Huai'an noticed the doubt in the other person's eyes and explained with a smile: "My client in Africa wants to strengthen his armed forces and asked me to find some training methods."
I guess they saw our apprentices sweeping across Africa, so they wanted to learn from them.
We certainly can't give away the training secrets of our most elite troops, so I was thinking of finding some that aren't available on the market, but that can be found with a little effort.
"Won't this threaten national security?"
After hearing the explanation, Li Hao's vigilance lessened somewhat.
This requirement doesn't really pose a threat to national security.
After all, foreign countries now have a deeper understanding of our military training methods than these requirements.
If you put in a little effort, you can actually find it.
Even if all else fails, you can get it from Rwanda by paying a high price.
It's not exactly a secret.
Even if the other party is indeed a spy, they cannot threaten him with something that is not exactly a secret.
He also wanted to test the waters and see if the other party would make any unreasonable demands.
If they actually made a request to steal state secrets, that would be wonderful.
What's the point of exchanging it for an antique worth 100,000? If you're going to make money, make 500,000!
Not only is it legal, but you can also get a certificate of merit issued by the National Security Bureau.
Hanging it in the store will definitely make you look very prestigious!
After carefully considering the matter for a moment, Li Hao extended his palm: "Deal. I can get it to you in seven days at most!"
Beneath his seemingly warm smile, he was already waiting to go fishing.
"Deal!"
Chen Huai'an shook hands, gave a few instructions about tomorrow's delivery, took a night vision device as a sample, and left.
Sitting on the bus home, I felt a little excited.
For warriors from another world, a systematic training manual is invaluable.
Even the reconnaissance training subjects that are now almost readily available would have been top-tier training manuals in 38.
That training method is the result of 76 years of continuous refinement and the extraction of its essence.
Following this training method will definitely improve the combat effectiveness of reconnaissance soldiers.
Chen Huai'an wasn't greedy; he was content with getting his hands on things that weren't exactly secret, but were still difficult for ordinary people to access.
Otherwise, it will arouse suspicion.
He had taken in Li Hao's wary look just now.
Little did he know that Li Hao had already taken notice of him, treating him as a bonus and a medal of honor!
If anyone is suspected of being a spy, they will be invited back for questioning by the National Security Bureau.
However, the purchases have been finalized, which has finally relieved me of the knot in my heart.
There's no longer any need to worry about soldiers lacking protective gear and sacrificing themselves on the way to the front.
"Wanwan will be so happy when she sees all this gear!"
As Chen Huai'an watched the scenery rushing past the car window, that beautiful face came to mind, and he couldn't help but smile knowingly.
I glanced at the time on my phone, got off the bus, and ate a bowl of knife-cut noodles near my neighborhood, with an extra egg.
After finishing my meal, I bought a small cake and a cup of orange-flavored fruit tea, then hurried home.
"Xiao Chen, buying your girlfriend bubble tea again?"
"Xiao Chen is a thoughtful young man; he'll definitely be a good husband in the future."
"This young couple is so sweet!"
The elderly people in the community garden couldn't help but tease him when they saw him carrying cakes and milk tea.
His eyes still gleamed with a strong gossip-loving air.
Chen Huai'an responded politely, quickly climbed to the sixth floor, and rushed home before eight o'clock.
After quickly tidying up the living room, I kept my eyes fixed on the bedroom door.
Click~.
Suddenly, a soft sound came, and the bedroom door was slowly pulled open.
