Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

Chapter 408 Brother, is this what you do?

"What do you think? Are you willing to give it up?" Zhao Cheng asked with a smile.

"Director Zhao, you have said so much. It would be ungrateful for me to refuse again. But Director Zhao, I wonder if you are interested in the house?" Pian Ye suddenly asked.

"What? You still have a house? Didn't you sell your ancestral home to Xu Huizhen a long time ago?" Zhao Cheng asked curiously.

He remembered that in the original drama, Pian Ye had sold his ancestral property and gone to the Northeast to trade in grain before the wind rose. Could the information be wrong?

"You know about this too?" Pian Ye was really surprised. At that time, only Cai Quanwu and his wife knew about this! How did this person know?

"Haha, if you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself. There is no wall that is impenetrable in the world. In the current situation, even if you dare to sell, I dare not buy! So you'd better give me some antiques honestly! If you can help me get some good things in the countryside, I can also give you 10% as a reward for your hard work! What do you think?" Zhao Cheng said.

"Since you have said so much, you have to give me face and I have to take care of it! I will do it for you! Just wait for my good news!" Pian Ye said with a wry smile.

"Okay, you drink here, I'll go find the Broken Marquis!" Zhao Cheng put the money under the wine pot and said directly to Pian Ye.

"What else do you want him to do?" Pian Ye asked curiously.

"Just like you, let's see if he is willing to give up what he has in his hand!" Zhao Cheng said directly.

"Do you know his home? Do you want me to show you the way?" Pian Ye's eyes turned and he said with a smile.

"Oh? Do you two have a grudge against each other?" Zhao Cheng looked at Pian Ye with strange eyes.

"How is that possible? We are brothers!" said Pian Ye.

"Do you want extra money?" Zhao Cheng said casually.

"Add money? Add what money?" Zhao Cheng's words confused Pian Ye.

"It's okay, there's still a lot of wine, don't you want to continue drinking?" Zhao Cheng asked.

"This wine can be drunk at any time, but you may not know when you can see your brothers again! I'll go with you!" Pian Ye drank the wine in the jug in one gulp and walked to the front to lead Zhao Cheng.

Zhao Cheng looked at Pian Ye's gloating expression, and didn't know whether the two had a grudge or they really had a good relationship. However, this was not what he wanted to consider. Since Pian Ye wouldn't lead the way, Zhao Cheng could just ask more. After all, he was wearing a police uniform, so how could anyone know without telling him?

So Zhao Cheng pushed his bicycle and followed Pian Ye. After walking for half an hour and turning many corners, he finally arrived at Hou Polan's house.

From the outside, this looks exactly like a scrap collector's residence. The front of the house looks very old, so it's probably a run-down residence.

Nowadays, people in Beijing who truly understand the situation know that most of the crops were destroyed by natural disasters, so no one would target these impoverished families. However, they don’t know that a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and these guys have a lot of wealth.

After the two arrived at the place, Pian Ye took the initiative to step forward and started knocking on the door. The door was knocked so loudly that people thought someone was here to seek revenge.

"Who is it? Announcing a death? Knocking on the door like that?" An old man's voice came from inside, and he was obviously annoyed by the knocking sound.

Although they were dejected, they still followed the rules. Knocking on the door so urgently could only happen to announce a death. Or perhaps they were seeking revenge!

Pian Ye was also insidious. He didn't say anything, but continued knocking, and each knock became louder than the last.

"Damn it! I want to see who it is!" As the sound got closer, the door was finally opened.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Pian Ye's mean face, and was so angry that he swallowed back his curse words. Cursing him was like cursing himself, and he couldn't curse at all. This sudden change almost choked Hou to death.

"What? You don't welcome your brother?" Pian Ye still said in a mean way.

"What are you doing here? My family has no shortage of food now!" Hou Polan rolled his eyes and said to Pian Ye in a bad tone.

"I'm not here to buy food from you today. I'm here to introduce you to a noble man!" After saying this, Pian Ye stepped out of the door, revealing Zhao Cheng behind him.

Pian Ye didn’t know Zhao Cheng, but Polan Hou often walked around the streets, so how could he not know Zhao Cheng?

"Director Zhao, if you want to see me directly, why did you come through him? This guy is so talkative. If anything happens to you, he can spread it all over the city tomorrow. This guy is too unreliable!" The Broken Marquis did not show any displeasure to Zhao Cheng, but said with a smile.

Pian Ye saw that his younger brother knew Zhao Cheng. He was wondering when Zhao Cheng spoke.

"What? Do you know me?" Zhao Cheng asked in surprise.

"Hehe, who doesn't know you on the streets of Peking? You are famous throughout Peking!" said Hou Polan with a thumbs up.

"Oh? How come I didn't know that I was so famous in the underworld?" Zhao Cheng asked curiously.

"Hey, you are too modest. After all, you are a public servant who truly serves the people. Your crackdown on criminals has made the entire road much quieter! It can be said that you have given us a great protection! We all remember your kindness!" The Broken Marquis also flattered Zhao Cheng.

Zhao Cheng rolled his eyes and stopped talking.

"Let's go inside and talk! Why are we talking like this at the gate?" Pian Ye quickly said to Polan Hou.

"Yes, yes, Director Zhao, please come in! Let's talk in the room!" Hou Polan quickly made way for the door and extended his hand to invite Zhao Cheng in.

After Zhao Cheng entered the yard, Polan Hou wanted to stop Pian Ye from entering the yard, but unfortunately Pian Ye dodged him with a magical move. Polan Hou had no choice but to turn around and close the gate.

As soon as Zhao Cheng entered the yard, he found that it was just as he had guessed. This yard was full of hidden secrets. Although the decorations inside were not very eye-catching, they were all good things.

Zhao Cheng, led by the Broken Marquis, came to the main house and sat on the kang. The Broken Marquis took out a water bottle and poured a glass of water for Zhao Cheng. He then sat beside him without saying a word.

"Tianlai, Director Zhao wants to purchase some antiques, calligraphy and paintings, antique furniture and so on! I want to ask if you can sell some of them. I don't want your heirlooms, just ordinary ones!" said Pian Ye.

After hearing what Pian Ye said, Hou Polan did not say anything. Instead, he glared at Pian Ye unhappily and then began to ponder.

Since Zhao Cheng was able to find him, it proved that this matter was a must-win for Zhao Cheng. He had to consider whether offending this street cleaner in Beiping City for some ordinary antiques would bring him trouble. Although the police would not care about what he did, if this street cleaner was really determined to cause trouble for him, he would be completely helpless. So he had to think carefully.
