Chapter 287

If you can open a shop on the main street, no matter what it is, it will obviously not be as narrow and shabby as the "tree granny" bookstore.

Golden Goat antique shop!

When Tang Qi opened the retro door, he saw a scene that was very in line with the store name. The space inside was large, about the size of several bookstores, but there was not much space for activities and was occupied by a variety of antiques.

In particular, large pieces such as antique furniture can make a spacious space difficult to move.

This scene is obviously not what qualified antique shops should appear.

At this time, in addition to entertaining several well-dressed customers behind the counter, who seemed to be the middle-aged obese man of the store manager, there was only a thin and freckled young man in overalls, sweating through the messy antiques.

Obviously, this is why the Golden Goat antique store wants to recruit apprentices.

In the final analysis, it's still recruiting coolies.

"This guest, do you need...?"

The middle-aged fat man in a handmade suit, monocles and a magnifying glass asked politely, even though he saw Tang Qi's shabby clothes.

"I'll apply!"

Tang Qi was not polite. He pointed to the job advertisement outside the store and said.

Seeing that he was not a guest, the fat store manager put down his magnifying glass, looked at Tang Qi, pinched his two moustaches above his lips, and said in a serious tone: "although I want to recruit an apprentice, I must be a young man who is careful, has read some books and is good at communicating with others."

"This is not a warehouse. If you damage something, you probably can't afford to sell it. In particular, I don't provide salary. In addition to giving some instructions, you must create profits for the Golden Goat in order to get some compensation."

"I think you are more suitable for a simpler job. Maybe I can introduce you to such a job if you need it."

It can be seen that the fat but decent store manager is good at dealing with people.

Even a coolie like Tang Qi can easily get a good impression.

If it was the original John Watson, we should be grateful at this time.

However, this is Tangqi.

He didn't care to look at the fat store manager, then smiled faintly and said, "no, I'm most suitable for this apprenticeship."

"Buzz"

As he spoke, a faint red light flashed from the bottom of Tang Qi's eyes.

A strong hint poured into the minds of the store manager, another clerk and several guests wandering in the store at the same time.

They will think that the next scene is: Tang Qi, a young man, with a serious and careful attitude and unexpected knowledge, was appreciated by the store manager and applied successfully. The name John Watson appeared in the list of members of the Golden Goat antique store.

The classic plot from "shuangwen" easily implanted into their minds.

It didn't even cost Tang Qi much mental power. "Red" was quickly released and recovered.

When the people in the store recovered, they saw that the store manager took out a new set of work clothes, handed it to Tang Qi, smiled and said, "from today on, you are the second apprentice in the Golden Goat antique store. Work hard and you have won the appreciation of big Arthur."

The store manager's name is Arthur Wilson.

At the same time, the fat middle-aged is also the curator of the only museum in Winston town.

According to his resume hanging on the wall, he is also an honorary member of the mihuang state collectors association. Among the top ten collectors in mihuang state, he is an expert in antique furniture, pirate antiques, ancient coins, firearms and works of art.

Just looking at the resume, it's hard to understand.

But considering that he can open an antique shop in Winston main street and run a museum, it is certain that he is a rich man.

The rich soon showed their true colors.

After entering the post, Tang Qi did not hesitate to be instructed to work hard with another apprentice named "Taylor Wilson".

Yes, the other apprentice is actually the nephew of big Arthur's store manager.

It's certainly not difficult for Tang Qi to move and tidy up those antique furniture or other objects. What's more difficult is that he needs to pretend to be very hard.

Fortunately, this can be fooled by the "body control curse". After both of them were tired and sweating, they finally had the opportunity to learn for the first time.

The store manager began to instill some skills in selling antiques into the two people. At the same time, he threw them a thick "complete collection of antiques and related introductions". Then Shi Shi ran left the store and went to take care of his other industry, Winston noble Museum.

The fat store manager was relieved to leave, leaving Tang Qi, an apprentice who had just been recruited for half a day, in the store. In addition to Taylor's nephew, there is another reason that makes Tang Qi speechless.

Almost all the so-called "antiques" in the store are fake.

The only genuine antique furniture can't be moved even if someone wants to steal it.

As soon as he left, Tangqi was going to do something.

Suddenly, something in his arms began to get hot, and Sally's voice came faintly.

One way iron!

Sally used the "soul spell" to change it into a soul phone.

Her message was very simple. Winston high school really didn't have to continue classes, but all teachers and students were called to the past.

It is said that mihuang Prefecture sent a powerful "detective" to ask teachers, students and staff, or some people who attended the party last night to cooperate in the investigation.

To this end, the official is also preparing to send a radio to find passengers entering the campus that night.

Murder, it's fermenting.

Although he was in the antique shop, Tang Qi could still vaguely feel that some housewives on the main street, passing guests, or store managers and clerks in other stores were talking about the same content.

Taylor is also very interested and ready to move. He seems to want to go out and inquire.

However, he obviously got his uncle's private advice and couldn't let Tang Qi, the new apprentice, be alone.

Tang Qi can detect this and still doesn't care.

Because it's useless.

Even at the professional level, you may not be able to see through Tang Qi's illusion curse or "red", let alone just an ordinary apprentice in an antique shop.

Tang Qi put a little illusion at will, but his body turned into a shadow and appeared in the warehouse of the Golden Goat antique store in an instant.

To be exact, it's the second warehouse.

The first warehouse is also fake. After a hidden door on the wall, it is the real storage place of antiques.

Although he is not an antique expert, Tang Qi can still see that the properly placed and orderly antiques in front of him have a different texture from the outside world.

But no matter how different it is, it has nothing to do with Tangqi.

He doesn't care about antiques. What he cares about is the "strange things" that may be hidden in antiques.

This is one of the reasons for applying for an apprenticeship.

Are there many strange things hidden in antiques?

This is an illusion.

However, the probability of strange objects in antiques is indeed higher.

In particular, gold goat, an antique shop in Winston Town, not only sells some fake goods to tourists, but also collects antiques. Most of the sellers are local people in Winston town. The antiques they took out may have something to do with the Earl's collar.

This association, Tang Qi appears here, is very normal.

"Buzz!"

While walking silently in the warehouse, he opened some covered antiques, glanced and operated with special ability.

Although there are many antiques in the warehouse, it can't resist Tang Qi's glance.

As a result, it soon appeared.

The first and only strange thing came into Tang Qimu at this time.

The faint light is flickering.

That's a rusty but well preserved anchor.

It was placed in a wooden box with no rope and heavy metal texture. The anchor was engraved with some skeletons and sea monsters. Under the rust, some strange black stains could be seen, which seemed to be blood preserved for many years.

Tang Qi's eyes converged, and a strong big resentment, which seemed to be fused by many small grievances, was being released.

This smell is very similar to that of the "sword of tebart" before.

Sure enough, some familiar pictures are generated at the next moment.

[wonder: the anchor of the blood deer.]

[status: scrapped.]

[information fragment 1: it belongs to a pirate ship that was active in the coastal waters of the Federation in the old calendar era. When it is in good condition, it has some extraordinary abilities such as calming the tsunami and stabilizing the hull, but now it is just a broken iron and an antique that can sell some prices.]

[information fragment 2: the crew of the "blood deer" hidden in the anchor. Although they were frightening and cruel pirates, they were secretly loyal to Samuel Winston, who was a naval officer at that time. Their looting and killing were all to help Winston accumulate original wealth, but they were abandoned and killed in the end.]

[information fragment 3: the crew of the blood deer know some secrets about count Winston, but after soaking in the sea for many years, the information fragments contained in them have long disappeared, and there is nothing but resentment.]

……

"Another secret?"

When only one or two pieces of information left flowed along with resentment, Tang Qi's eyebrows wrinkled.

Once again, he saw words like secret and silence.

If it was the sword of tebart last time, we can find some explanations.

What was revealed in the anchor in front of me was enough to prove it.

Immortal count!

There is a clear gap between Samuel Winston and the description of the witch leader in the cartoon.

In the cartoon, Earl Winston is a brave, powerful and righteous soldier and explorer.

But what Tang Qi saw at this time was a ruthless owl.

In the old calendar era, it was not uncommon to have an owl.

But there is a problem here, that is, what we know about Samuel Winston's human design is beginning to be wrong.

If you ask Tang Qi whether he believes in comics or his special abilities.

The answer, no doubt.
