Chapter 854: Pretend
"I have my own way." Lin Ran made a V sign to him and drove away.
The next day, Yang Jianlong drove to Lin Ran's house.
Seeing a middle-aged man standing at the door of his house, he asked politely: "Hello, may I ask... Is Lin Ran at home?"
At first he thought it was Father Lin, but when he took a closer look, he didn't recognize him.
But the person in front of me always feels like déjà vu.
The man said in a rich voice: "Jianlong, have you brought everything?"
Yang Jianlong was stunned. Could it be that Lin Ran didn't go by himself, but entrusted someone else to do it?
At this moment, the middle-aged man stepped forward and opened the passenger door.
Yang Jianlong suddenly became angry and said, "Who asked you to open the door?"
How can anyone sit in his car?He couldn't help but reprimanded in an aggravated tone.
Then I saw the middle-aged man bending down and laughing.
Seeing this scene, Yang Jianlong was even more confused and asked, "Are you okay?"
Lin Ran lifted the wig and said in his original voice: "Haha, Jianlong, it's me."
"Godfather?" Yang Jianlong's eyes widened.
The man in front of him had a mustache and round-rimmed glasses. He looked extremely serious and was the same age as Zheng Xueming.
But he didn't expect that it was Lin Ran pretending to be him.
Lin Ran sat down in the passenger seat and said, "I look good in this outfit?"
Yang Jianlong laughed dumbly, "Godfather, you are too funny. Where did you get this equipment?"
Television has not yet become popular, so Lin Ran learned all the disguise techniques he used from television.
I originally thought that the TV writers were stupid, and I couldn’t even tell it like this.
Only now do I realize that it is really difficult to see at a glance.
As long as he lowers his voice, he can pretend to be a middle-aged man of his father's age, and he is worthy of the title of Master Tianlexing.
"By the way, godfather, dad asked me to ask you what your name is." Yang Jianlong asked while driving. He felt that these words sounded like a tongue twister.
"Hmm..." Lin Ran admitted that he hadn't thought of a name yet. He originally wanted to borrow Master Wu You's name, but Wu You was also a well-known master in the capital and might be recognized.
So it's better to pretend to be a new foreign master.
"Just call me Xiang Shaolong." Lin Ran said casually.
"Xiang Shaolong? What a good name." Yang Jianlong said with admiration, "My godfather is really amazing. He is so talented even in casual editing."
Lin Ran could only look out the window, not knowing how to answer.
But now is not the time to care about details. The replacement action must be foolproof.
Yanyuan is actually a community near Beijing University. Those who can build villas here are often highly respected professors of the school.
Gray bought this old house from a professor at a high price and renovated it, which gave it a unique flavor.
At the gate of the community, Lin Ran met Zheng Xueming.
Zheng Xueming and Yang Jianlong had the same attitude. When they saw Lin Ran, they first raised their hands and said, "Sir, who are you?"
"It's me, Brother Zheng." Lin Ran said in his original voice with a smile.
Zheng Xueming showed the same expression as Yang Jianlong, with his mouth wide open and looked at Lin Ran dumbfounded.
Yang Jianlong covered his mouth and snickered.
There were many people talking here, so Lin Ran hurriedly said: "Brother Zheng, business is important."
Zheng Xueming coughed slightly, and then his old friend came over.
"Old Zheng, long time no see. How is your Tianlexing business lately?"
"Okay, okay, boss Ma, how is your pawn shop?" Zheng Xueming greeted him back with a smile.
They seemed to be old friends whom they hadn't seen for many years, and they seemed particularly polite.
But the more polite you are, the more unfamiliar they appear.
Only then did they notice Yang Jianlong and Lin Ran, and asked, "Brother Zheng, I know your son-in-law, but who is this?"
"Oh, this is the master who just came from Yun Province. He just came to Tianlexing. I took him to appraise the treasures." Zheng Xueming said.
"Xiang Shaolong, I have met all the bosses." Lin Ran bowed slightly.
These bosses also brought their own followers. They were obviously not interested in the little guy and even ignored him.
He just put his arm on Zheng Xueming's shoulder and said, "Old Zheng, we can talk about cooperation."
Lin Ran shrugged and followed them into the community.
He was carrying a small bag with documents on the outside and imitations of rap pottery figurines inside.
Soon, Lin Ran met Gray.
Gray is older than Zheng Xueming and the others, and his hair is completely gray.
The group of people with Zheng Xueming looked much more haggard, and they looked like very fierce people.
Seeing Zheng Xueming and the others, Gray was very enthusiastic.
Thank you again and again for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend the party you organized.
Then, he glanced at Lin Ran very inconspicuously, and after receiving Zheng Xueming's reply, he nodded slightly and allowed him to enter the villa.
They sat on the mahogany sofa as soon as they entered, and the servants hired by the family made tea.
Gray sat with them and chatted for a few words. Gray smiled mysteriously and said, "I invite you here today because I want to show you a treasure."
He immediately stood up and made an invitation: "Like everyone, I also have a hobby of collecting cultural relics. Over the past year, I have also collected a lot of good items. Let me share them with you."
Someone behind him said in a low voice, "Yeah, I'm just showing off."
"There's nothing we can do about it. He controls the entire Liuyunbao City, and we are just a broken shop. How can we compare with him?"
The two sang together and spoke without caring about each other's face.
Gray heard what they said, but didn't take it to heart at all.
In his opinion, it was incompetence and rage.
They were just jealous of their own strength. Hearing their jealous tone, Gray felt extremely comfortable.
When we arrived at the collection room, the room was very large, about [-] square meters. It was obviously an exhibition hall created by knocking out all parts except the load-bearing walls.
Glass bookshelves are placed against the wall, with different artifacts placed behind each glass.
Lin Ran took a look. Although Gray was flamboyant, he liked to show off.
But his taste is extraordinary, and there are indeed many treasures in the showroom.
As soon as Lin Ran approached the glass cabinet, he heard Gray shouting sharply: "Please don't touch the display cabinet, please, thank you."
Lin Ran saw a plaster statue of an angel in the glass cabinet, which looked like a work by a foreign master, and wanted to take a closer look.
As a result, he drank and instantly lost interest.
Zheng Xueming glanced at Lin Ran and whispered: "Brother Lin, don't worry, that's just his nature."
"It's okay." Lin Ran naturally didn't take it to heart.
Following Gray's footsteps, they came to the glass cabinet in front of the room.
Displayed inside are the rap pottery figurines that Ge Zhenliang took away from the hospital a week ago.
"Everyone, I snatched this from the auction. Please help me see if there is anything wrong with this pottery figurine."
He looked at everyone with a half-smile.
