Chapter 129: Little Master (Part 2)

After listening to the end of the phone call just now, the old man winked at the young man: “Call and try.”

The young man immediately dialed the phone and pressed the speakerphone. Before he could speak, he heard an impatient girl’s voice on the phone: “Didn’t you go to play, why do you call if you have something to do? Don’t you know it’s the busiest time for me of the year? I’ll hang up!”

Seeing that the other side hung up the phone neatly, the old man breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, he didn’t want to make extra trouble, and it would be best to have one less thing.

Jiang Wei seemed to have anticipated the attitude on the other side of the phone, and smiled heartily twice: “My little master has a big heart, and no one can stop her from making money.”

Seeing that Jiang Wei didn’t call the police or his family after getting the phone call, instead called Little Master, a girl, it can be said that their relationship was unusual. Hearing him talk about his little master in an affectionate tone, he couldn’t help but feel sore: Young people, why are they so good at playing, and still calling little master? Look, it’s all about romance.

The old man was very satisfied that Jiang Wei did not cause trouble for himself, and his attitude towards him was much better than before: “I see that the name on your ID card is Jiang Wei. From now on, I will call you Xiao Jiang. You can call me Boss Song, these people behind me are all my apprentices.” He reached out and nodded to the middle-aged man who was pouring tea for him: “Boss.” Then he counted down in order: “Second, third, fourth… …” Finally, he tapped the young man who lost his phone: “This is the fifth apprentice. You two happen to be the same age. You probably have something to talk about when you are together. When you are free, let the fourth child and the fifth child accompany you.”

Jiang Wei understood that this meant that the fourth and fifth apprentice would be the ones who would closely monitor him in the future. He glanced at the fourth apprentice, who was less than thirty years old but looked very shrewd, but the young fifth apprentice seemed to be easy to fool, and he looked a bit careless, otherwise, he wouldn’t have thrown the phone at him in the room.

“Now that we know each other, I won’t go around in circles anymore. I have something I want to ask you for help with.” The old man handed the teapot to the big apprentice and took out a small pot from his arms. When he got to the jar, he heard a creaking sound coming from inside, which was the same as the sound he heard on the high-speed rail.

The old man lifted the lid, and there was a beetle-like thing inside, but the lid was golden. Jiang Wei didn’t know what species it was.

“Don’t look at this little thing that doesn’t look amazing, but it is very sturdy” The old man glanced at Jiang Wei and smiled meaningfully: “It can find treasures for me.”

Jiang Wei realized it as soon as he heard it. Isn’t this almost as capable as him? His little master also likes to take him with him when she was looking for treasures, which saves trouble. But this thing doesn’t seem to be very effective, he was not a treasure, what it squeaks at him.

“Is your thing not very effective?” Jiang Wei picked up a straw on the table and poked the little bug’s back twice: “What is it telling me?”

As soon as the words fell, the little insect that was screaming vigorously just now froze suddenly, and then flipped over with a snap, and the few tiny whiskers and feet did not move, as if dead.

Jiang Wei immediately threw away the straw in his hand, raised his hands, and showed an innocent expression: “I touched it twice with the straw, but I didn’t expect its shell to be so easy to break!” The old man glanced at Jiang Wei in disbelief, and hurriedly picked up the precious little bug and put it in his palm, but no matter how he looked at it, the little bug didn’t move at all, and its legs didn’t move.
