Now reading: Chapter 333: Grasping Wealth, Bringing Good Fortune! from Street Hustler and His Policewoman Wife, a Drama novel by It's just a cricket..

Chen Xiao pondered over who in his mory might be interested in wood carvings.

After so thought, he rembered the expensive wood carvings displayed in Guo Zhengchang’s villa, worth hundreds of thousands.

So he made a call there.

Guo Zhengchang answered, "Oh, you rascal, it’s been a long ti since I heard from you, today you finally rembered ."

"I’ve been busy lately! Besides, I really wasn’t sure if I should bother you unless it’s sothing important, after all, Dragon Cauldron relies heavily on you now!"

"Enough with the flattery, just tell ... what do you need from ?"

Guo Zhengchang inquired, and Chen Xiao didn’t beat around the bush:

"I’ve recently received a wood carving, and personally, I find it a bit bizarre, so I wanted to ask a wood carving master for their opinion."

"Wood carving, huh? How co you’re into that stuff lately?"

"It’s not that, it was sent by an old acquaintance."

Chen Xiao didn’t ntion Lou Xiaodong and certainly didn’t want to discuss Lou Xiaodong’s death with Guo Zhengchang.

Guo Zhengchang didn’t pry too much, and straightforwardly said:

"Okay, why don’t you send so photos of the wood carving from different angles online? I’ll have so professionals take a look." Guo Zhengchang said this, and then added sowhat smugly:

"Besides, I might be considered a semi-expert too. After all, there was a ti when I was quite idle."

Chen Xiao was delighted at heart, "So, Elder Guo, you can spot sothing from it too!"

"Send it to my email first, I’ll take a good look later."

"Alright, then I’ll send it over right away."

As he spoke, Chen Xiao opened his computer, fussing around for a while before sending the photos to Guo Zhengchang’s email.

Guo Zhengchang was likely by his computer, so it wasn’t long before he called back.

His tone was heavier when he spoke again.

"Who is this old acquaintance you ntioned? Why would they have such a wood carving! This piece is incredibly dark-minded!"

Chen Xiao inquired seriously, "The wood carving did give a sense of shock from the darkness, but Elder Guo, I’d like to hear your evaluation of the carving itself."

"When I opened your photos, I could feel its craftsmanship was extrely advanced. The person who carved this piece must be a master-level artist!"

Chen Xiao pondered for a mont and asked again, "Elder Guo, could you help ask so renowned masters in the country if they can see whose style it belongs to?"

"That’s no trouble, but Chen Xiao, be honest with , who sent you this wood carving? Was it sent by those criminals you caught before?" Guo Zhengchang asked.

Chen Xiao chose not to hide anymore, revealing the truth.

Upon hearing this, Guo Zhengchang was silent for a while, then replied:

"I sensed a bit of difficulty in your words, but there’s no need to be so concerned about my feelings. I’m not soone who can’t differentiate right from wrong, Lou Yang is Lou Yang, Lou Xiaodong is Lou Xiaodong. As far as I know, Lou Xiaodong was indeed a good officer."

Before Chen Xiao could respond, Guo Zhengchang continued, "Don’t worry, I’ll find soone to look at that wood carving promptly."

"Thank you, Elder Guo, how are things progressing over in Shencheng City?"

"Very smoothly, good news will co in a few days. Once successful, Dragon Cauldron will firmly establish itself in Shencheng City!"

"That’s excellent, I can earn money while relaxing for the next few years!"

Guo Zhengchang snorted, "Only you can talk to like this! By the way, when do you plan to start what you truly want to do?"

"Soon."

Chen Xiao said only two words.

There was no need to elaborate further to Guo Zhengchang about what he planned to do, as Lin Xi had previously discussed so of it with him during the plans to build a culinary city.

Guo Zhengchang didn’t inquire further; he was more interested in the "Ten Demon Sons" than what Chen Xiao wanted to accomplish.

They exchanged a few more pleasantries before ending the call.

Chen Xiao didn’t call anyone else afterward; instead, he took out sketch paper and a pen.

He thought it better to analyze the matter himself than to wait for others’ feedback.

He started sketching each of the so-called Ten Demon Sons separately.

In creative work, it’s often said that writing reflects the person, literature mirrors the person, and such sayings.

In the wood carving field, Chen Xiao felt this saying might hold so truth as well.

He drew each of the Ten Demon Sons.

In the end, Chen Xiao gazed at his sketches, finding one particular Demon Son’s wood carving notably intriguing.

The Demon Son had a greedy, fierce expression on its face.

In its hand wasn’t a distinct weapon like a knife or axe but rather a gold ingot.

Suddenly, inspiration struck Chen Xiao as he stared at the gold ingot.

The Demon Son holding the gold ingot was positioned centrally, within its abdon.

According to common sense, a central position often implies significant status.

If this ingot-holding Demon Son is centrally placed, does it hint at a connection to wealth?

Perhaps, a case hiding imnse wealth?

As soon as this thought surfaced in his mind, Chen Xiao couldn’t help but bitterly smile and shake his head:

"Seems like I’m overthinking it, not every bizarre occurrence has a case behind it."

Chen Xiao pondered this to himself.

Then he decided to lock the sketches along with the Ten Demon Sons drawings in the cabinet.

Having tidied up, feeling bored, Chen Xiao called Luo Dali.

"What are you up to?"

"Shopping with Xiaoxiu, getting things ready for the engagent." Luo Dali responded happily, then asked, "Brother Chen, did you need anything?"

"No, go accompany your Xiu’Er."

"Doot doot..." Luo Dali hung up imdiately.

Chen Xiao felt a bit frustrated.

Since Xiaoji and Xiaoji Knife Man have been sent out to find talent, he needs to focus on transforming Dongzhou into the safest city!

After so thought, Chen Xiao realized the only person left to call was Liu Dayou.

He picked up the phone, about to call Liu Dayou, but the latter knocked on the door.

"Brother Chen, I... Dayou, are you ho?"

Chen Xiao opened the door.

Outside, Liu Dayou had his hands folded over his stomach, seemingly hiding sothing.

Before Chen Xiao could ask, Liu Dayou spoke with a sleazy expression:

"Brother, isn’t your wife out?"

"She isn’t, what’s up?"

"I just got so good stuff from my friends, bringing it over for you to admire."

Chen Xiao’s eyes lit up, "New arrivals?"

"Sort of! Although I haven’t watched it, based on my years of experience, the cover alone is half a masterpiece!"

"Good buddy! Hand it over, you may leave now!"

Liu Dayou’s eyes narrowed, "Are you sure you want to hurry out like this?"

"What else, want to watch it together?"

"Then forget it, what are two grown n doing watching a film!"

Saying this, Liu Dayou tossed a black plastic bag onto the table and turned to leave.

But the next second, Chen Xiao suddenly asked, "Who delivers this kind of stuff in the morning? Tell , what’s your business with !"

Liu Dayou paused in his steps, then his face turned serious:

"I wanted to bring you so good luck."
