When Qin Hao walked out of the hospital, his mind was still in a complete mess. Stomach cancer - this word is like a piece of ice directly pressing on the chest. He couldn't understand how his father could suddenly fall ill with such a disease. What made him even more distressed was that his father, in order not to burden the family, was willing to give up the treatment.
His thoughts were surging, and he didn't pay attention to the direction of his feet and the street. A car suddenly rushed over from the side, and the crash sound exploded in the air. He was thrown out of the air and landed heavily on the ground.
A young woman fell out of the car, clearly quite frightened.
"Sir!" Oh my god, I'm sorry! Are you okay? I'll take you to the hospital!"
Qin Hao propped himself up on the ground, feeling dizzy and his vision blurred, but strangely, it didn't hurt as much as he had imagined. He shook his head, and a sense of shock welled up in his heart
The Eye of the Taotie... Has even physical fitness been enhanced?
"I'm fine..." He had just spoken when his phone vibrated. It was his mother.
"Mom?" What's wrong?"
"Your father refuses to be hospitalized no matter what. Come quickly!" "Try to persuade him quickly!" "
"Ok, I'll be there soon." Qin Hao hung up the phone and nodded at the woman, "I'm really fine. I have to go first."
He turned and ran away, leaving the female driver standing by the roadside, her face full of astonishment - after hitting someone, the other party could leave as if nothing had happened. She came to Yuncheng today to acquire an antique shop and really didn't expect to encounter such an outrageous thing.
...
When Qin Hao rushed outside the ward, he heard his mother lowering her voice to persuade his father.
Old Qin, with the advancement of medical science nowadays, your illness is not yet at an advanced stage and can be treated. We can't give up easily.
Qin Daniu was as stubborn as an ox: "Cure?" Over 800,000! I'm in my fifties and have never seen such a number in my entire life. Want me to be a burden to my son? No. I've made up my mind.
"But..." But --"
"Stop it." " Qin Daniu spoke firmly, "Don't tell your son about this." He's already worked hard enough. I can't put any more pressure on him. The neighbors didn't say anything either. I won't be able to help him much in my life, but I can't hold him back either.
Qin Hao outside the door took a deep breath and felt his nose tingle.
When he was a child, he often complained, wondering why he wasn't born into a wealthy family with no worries about food and clothing. But at this moment, he no longer envied anyone.
He pushed the door open and went in, his voice steady and firm.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry." I have money. Dad, you go to the hospital. I'll handle it."
The parents were stunned.
"Son..." You know it all?"
...
After settling his father down, Qin Hao left the hospital. He had originally intended to keep the jade butterfly for a while longer before selling it, but now he had no choice - the medical expenses for his father were the most important.
The antique street became noisy again. Seeing him, the bosses all gathered around.
"Xiao Qin, have you considered making a move with that jade butterfly?" "
"Yeah, this material, this workmanship, you ask for a price!"
Qin Hao walked straight towards Boss Zhang's shop. When Boss Zhang saw him come, he was obviously taken aback for a moment.
"Xiao Qin?" Sit down quickly."
Boss Zhang is a man of sharp vision. He himself couldn't even tell the material of the jade butterfly, but Qin Hao recognized it at a glance - the young man had talent. This was the judgment he had made in his heart.
"Mr. Zhang, I urgently need money." " Qin Hao came straight to the point, "I want to sell you the Jade Butterfly for the time being."
"For sale temporarily?" Boss Zhang raised his eyebrows.
I'll sell it to you for eight hundred thousand. Half a year later, I redeemed it with one million.
The true value of the jade butterfly might exceed ten million. He couldn't bear to sell it all off and could only take a step back.
Boss Zhang was slightly stunned. Clearly, he didn't expect him to propose such a way.
"Ok." You can redeem 900,000 after half a year."
For Boss Zhang, this is a business that guarantees no loss. And there was another reason why he agreed so readily - he was optimistic about Qin Hao. This young man might go a long way in the antique industry in the future and might even give him a hand.
Both parties signed a statement as evidence, and 800,000 yuan was credited to the account.
"Thank you, Boss Zhang." Qin Hao nodded sincerely. Immediately after he left, he transferred 300,000 yuan to his mother, and the rest of the money was to be used to "make money".
...
When he came to Mr. Li's store, there was a man in tattered clothes inside. That man looked like a down-and-out scholar, his face full of exhaustion.
"Boss, this painting is truly an ancestral object of our family, the work of 髡残. My wife is seriously ill and I have to take it out... I can't help it either..."
The man's pleading in a low voice made Qin Hao's heart tighten - the predicaments of fate always come when people are most unprepared.
He looked at the landscape. The scene is clean and serene, with wisps of smoke curling around. The white egrets and the small pavilion interweave a serene charm.
Good drawing. Very good.
Qin Hao activated the Taotie Eye, and a golden light flashed across his field of vision. When he looked at the painting again, he was suddenly shaken.
The painting is full of vitality. Heavy and calm, yet truly existing.
"Oh my god..." He exclaimed in a low voice.
Even more strangely, he could sense that his golden eyes were drawing a breath into the painting, or as if they were "bringing" that breath back into his own eyes.
Then - the spiritual energy seeped through the eyes.
It felt itchy and strange, as if there were tiny things moving in the eyes. But then, the golden light deepened a layer in his pupils, and only he himself could feel it.
Gradually, he could even "see" a faint golden scent floating in the painting.
The numbness and itching subsided, and a sense of relief welled up in me, just like taking a cold shower after a month of exhaustion, feeling refreshed and invigorated all over.
This is the second growth of the Taotie Eye.
