Chapter 1315 (1/2)
Amay Island, 1 p.m.
”Golog!” assan stood outside the fence, waved and shouted.
Guoluo, who was watering the flowers, raised his head and blinked: ”assang, what's up?”
”Come here!” assan waved again. ”There's something good for you.”
”God nagging...” Guoluo shouted, put down the shower, turned and walked slowly to the fence, ”what good thing?”
”Hi.” assang grabbed the fence with both hands and stretched his neck. ”I heard your husband is very interested in calligraphy and painting?”
”Yes.” the housekeeper Guoluo nodded and put down his rolled up sleeve. ”Why did you suddenly ask this?”
Assang grinned and said mysteriously, ”my young master has a friend who has a famous painting in his hand. What's the name... He's going to sell it anyway...”
Before he finished, the housekeeper Guoluo waved his hand again and again: ”forget it, don't mention this to me.”
”Eh? Why?” assang couldn't help looking at him suspiciously. ”I heard that your husband is a big buyer, so I came to ask you.”
”Antique calligraphy and painting, who can tell the true from the false?” the housekeeper Guoluo raised his hand and stroked the moustache on his chin. ”Let's be servants. Don't help the master's business. It's not cost-effective if we don't reward the meritorious service and punish the guilty.”
Assang gently skimmed his mouth and said solemnly, ”you should know the background of my young master. With him as a guarantor, you can still pit you?”
The housekeeper Guoluo narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at assang carefully: ”your young master asked you to come?”
”Yes.”
After a little hesitation, the housekeeper Guoluo shook his head: ”that's not good. Since young master Du wants to make up for it, let him talk to Mr. Jiang in person. We two servants don't mean what we say, so we're stuck in the middle.”
”That's it. Mr. Jiang has something to do today. I'll buy you a drink after I'm busy another day.” the voice dropped, and the housekeeper Guoluo turned and wanted to leave.
”Hey! Golog!” assang quickly stopped him and shook his arm through the fence. ”My young master doesn't know your husband well. I want you to help. Golog, you're paid this time. You want to send your son out to school and make a difference. Don't you need money?”
The housekeeper Guoluo stopped and looked back at assan: ”is there any reward?”
”Yes, and don't worry. My young master is generous. As long as the business can succeed, he can't treat you badly.” assang said quickly, ”we have a good relationship. I recommended you to the young master. Don't hit me in the face.”
Golog stood there hesitating for a moment, then came back and asked, ”assan, are you sure?”
”Don't worry, the other party is an old friend of my young master, and it's absolutely reliable. Moreover, my young master also said that he guarantees it. If there is a fake, he will bear it on his shoulder and compensate in full, don't you worry?”
The housekeeper Guoluo nodded reassuringly, and then asked, ”where is the boss?”
”He didn't arrive until three or four o'clock this afternoon, and then he has to go to other places. He doesn't intend to stay in ah Mai for too long.” assan replied, ”so I hope your husband can pick up the ship and make a decision on the ship.”
”Oh, in such a hurry, the credibility is not high.”
”Don't worry. Although the gentleman is very busy, isn't there still my young master? Your husband can take it first if he is satisfied with the painting and pay the money to my young master later.”
”Oh, well, but...” the housekeeper Guoluo said again, ”Mr. Jiang is going to pick up the boat later this afternoon. I don't know if the time can be arranged...”
Assang advised, ”I have to pick up the boat anyway. It's nothing to put it together.”
After thinking for a moment, the housekeeper Guoluo nodded, ”well, I'll talk to Mr. Jiang and listen to his opinions. I'll inform you later.”
”Well, hurry up. It's a little more. I'll wait for your news here.”
”Well, I'll find Mr. Jiang now.” the housekeeper Guoluo waved his hand, turned and strode away.
Staring at his leaving figure, assang raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his neck due to tension, and gently breathed out his breath.
After parting with assang, the housekeeper Golog went around to the front yard and quickly stepped up the stairs.
He took two steps and suddenly stopped. He turned his head and asked the servant who cleaned the yard, ”is Sir up?”
”Ah, not yet.”
”Strange...” Guo Luo frowned gently. ”It's already past noon. Sir, I've never slept so late. Are you sick?”
With this in mind, Golog went into the house and walked down the stairs to the second floor.
He stopped in front of the bedroom door, raised his hand and knocked on the door: ”Mr. Jiang? Mr. Jiang?”
”Cough...” a violent cough came out of the room, followed by a hoarse voice, ”what's the matter?”
”Are you sick, sir?” Golog reached out and pushed the door, but found that the door was locked from the inside and did not open.
He couldn't help looking anxious: ”Mr. Jiang, can you open the door? I'll call a doctor for you.”
”No, it's just that my voice is not comfortable.” the voice fell, the door opened from the inside, and Jiang Qiyuan, with a dark face, appeared at the door. ”What's the matter with you?”
Guoluo felt that Jiang Qiyuan's voice today was a little different from that in normal days. It was obviously very ill.
