Chapter 201 The Richest Man’s Private Collection
The next morning, Zhang Yang was having breakfast when his cell phone suddenly rang.
When I picked it up, I saw that it was Master Zou Tianshi who I hadn't contacted for a long time.
However, after the call was connected, the person speaking on the other end of the line was not the old Taoist priest, but a man who claimed to be a policeman from a police station in Qingzhou City.
The police said on the other end of the phone that Zou Zhongyi was detained on suspicion of reselling cultural relics.
Now notify the family.
"Then you may have called the wrong number. I am not a relative of Zou Zhongyi."
Zhang Yang explained to the police:
"My master's name is Feng Yao. He was arrested a long time ago. There are no elders jumping around outside now."
"The person detained this time is not your master, but your uncle."
The police on the other end of the phone was afraid of making a mistake, so they confirmed Zhang Yang's identity again:
"Your uncle said that you are a young man from our city's Good Luck Village who looks like Daniel Wu. Is that correct?"
"That's true, but Zou Zhongyi is not really my uncle. He is an old Taoist priest from Mount Longhu."
"He must have committed a crime and didn't want to bring shame on their temple, so he didn't tell the truth. How about you ask him again, police officer?"
"That's not right. We have already contacted the people in Longhu Mountain, and they also said they don't know Zou Zhongyi."
"real or fake?"
"I'm a police officer. Is there any point in lying to you? You are really Zou Zhongyi's only relative now."
“……” Zhang Yang was silent.
The old Taoist priest must be from Longhu Mountain. Li Zi had paid someone to confirm this. Otherwise, who would dare to ask him for help in calculating Feng Shui?
Zhang Yang guessed that the people at the Taoist temple probably heard what Zou Tianshi had done and cut him off on the spot.
The old Taoist priest is so pitiful. He made money before and bought a lot of things and sent them back to the Taoist temple. Now he is directly abandoned.
Zhang Yang thought about it and agreed to this matter.
Just treat him as a family member, otherwise the old Taoist priest would be too pitiful.
In fact, after the criminal detention, even as a family member, Zhang Yang had little room for maneuver. He could only help hire a lawyer.
As for hiring a lawyer, after Li Zi heard about the situation, she got it done with just one phone call.
At this time, Zhang Yang did not think about what cultural relics the old Taoist priest had sold.
Until the lawyer came back with the news.
He told Zhang Yang that although Zou Tianshi was an undercover agent for the police, whether he had committed a crime or not could only be known after the interrogation.
The current situation is that the old Taoist priest was tricked by tomb robbers, who called the police directly after selling their belongings.
He was caught red-handed.
Moreover, due to the existence of the bronze artifacts, the case was taken very seriously by the Qingzhou City police, so much so that the police in Lin'an, who asked Zou Tianshi to act as an informant, were helpless for a while.
After listening to the lawyer's report, Zhang Yang and Li Zi laughed out loud at the same time.
"Hahahaha!"
"Master Zou is so unlucky, isn't he?" Li Zi said with a smile, "How could it be such a coincidence that the stolen items from the tomb would be bought by him!"
"Do you know what the underground antique emperor of East China is?"
"Look at the business they do."
When Zhang Yang spoke, he couldn't suppress the smile at his mouth.
But no matter how funny it is, we still have to help Master Zou Tianshi to get him out.
If it were in the past, Zhang Yang might have to go to the police station or even the municipal bureau.
But now, Li Zi directly arranged for the manager of the cemetery to take the picture album to the Municipal Bureau to supplement the details of the case, and the old Taoist priest would not be a big problem.
There is no need to Zhang Yang himself.
"I didn't expect that when Zou Tianshi said he was going to stir up trouble in the antique market, he would actually do it like this."
"I can only say it's very reasonable." Zhang Yang said with a smile.
……
There is evidence provided by the cemetery manager, and Zou Tianshi’s contact in Lin’an probably also made some efforts.
Just three days later, Zhang Yang received a text message from the old Taoist priest reporting that he was safe.
But he still didn't come back.
Zhang Yang guessed that the old Taoist priest had not completed his mission, so he went back to work undercover.
But now, he has no time to care about Master Zou Tianshi's problem.
Because there was a bigger thing in front of him, that was - Mr. Li was gone.
He passed away in the middle of the night. Fortunately, Zhang Yang was a light sleeper, otherwise Li Zi might have missed the call from her eldest brother. Although she had guessed this day would come, she was still stunned when she received the news of her father's death.
Zhang Yang was worried about her condition and personally sent her over.
When the two arrived at the entrance of the sanatorium, the other five brothers of the Li family were standing at the gate, looking at them eagerly.
When they saw Zhang Yang park his car, they immediately surrounded him.
"Old Six, you are finally here."
"The notary is waiting inside. He won't announce the will until you arrive."
"Sixth sister, don't worry. Dad passed away peacefully. The people at the funeral home are putting on makeup for him. After the will is read, we can see him for the last time."
"Let's go. Don't just stand there. Zhang Yang, don't go in. Please wait outside for a while."
"Yeah, I know." Zhang Yang nodded and stood there without moving.
But so is Li Zi.
After being urged by a few other people, she even simply hugged Zhang Yang's arm, as if to go wherever Zhang Yang was.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Yang asked her in a low voice.
"I am afraid."
"Ah? What are you afraid of?" Zhang Yang was a little confused.
"I'm afraid that my father left nothing for me in his will. You won't want me anymore."
"Huh?" Zhang Yang looked at Li Zi in shock. The latter's face was pale and she was staring at him without blinking.
Not kidding, I really care.
Words of comfort were no longer useful at this time. Zhang Yang thought about it and handed over his cell phone.
"Take it!"
"What for?" Li Zi took it puzzled.
"There's an ID card on the back of the phone case, and inside the phone there are photos of both of us, as well as chat history."
"If I abandon you after having an affair with you, you can take these things and expose me harshly."
"You are version T0, you should have more confidence in yourself."
"Zhang Yang——"
Li Zi called out his name in a drawn-out voice, and suddenly, in front of her brothers, she stood on tiptoe and pecked Zhang Yang on the face.
"Ahem, Sixth sister, please be careful about the occasion." Li Hong couldn't help but remind her.
Li Zi ignored the elder brother and handed over her cell phone like Zhang Yang.
exchange!
Nowadays, men and women who dare to exchange mobile phones definitely have a relationship that surpasses 90% of couples and have almost complete mutual trust.
After exchanging the phones, Li Zi finally let go of Zhang Yang's arm.
At the same time, his eyes revealed a look that was not there just now.
Li Hong and Zhang Yang on the opposite side looked at each other and said silently with their mouths:
"Okay! You kid!"
It seemed as if he was approving of Zhang Yang's behavior just now.
But in fact, Zhang Yang regretted it after Li Zi followed the brothers in.
Because he was sitting in the car, without a cell phone, he had no idea what to do.
Just when he was about to die of boredom, suddenly an old man in a suit knocked on his car window.
Zhang Yang recognized that this was Professor Qin from before, who had a close personal relationship with President Li.
Professor Qin said to Zhang Yang through the car window with a smile on his face:
"Zhang Yang, Li Zi's father wants you to do him a favor."
"Huh?" Zhang Yang's alarm bells immediately went off: "Didn't Mr. Li leave?"
"Faked death?"
It seems reasonable for a rich person to fake his own death and then see how his children react.
"Uh... you have a really big imagination."
Professor Qin wiped the cold sweat from his head and slowly explained:
"Mr. Li has some personal collections that need to be properly disposed of after his death. My skills are not good enough, so he asked me to ask you for help."
The private collection of the richest man?
Zhang Yang's eyes suddenly lit up.
