The live-streamed object exploration made me release that bird.

Chapter 55 A Batch of Stolen Precious Rosewood

Chu Tai: "Xiao Yang, a friend of mine had a batch of rosewood stolen, but we have no leads. I recommended you to my friend, Xiao Yang. If you're really capable of helping my friend recover this rosewood, my friend will offer at least 100,000 yuan as a reward. I wonder if you're interested, Xiao Yang, do you have any way to help my friend recover this rosewood?"

After listening carefully, Yang Xun pondered for a moment and replied, "Mr. Chu, thank you for introducing me to the business. As for your friend's rosewood, whether I can get it back depends on whether I can meet with him and discuss it in detail."

Chu Tai: "Okay, Xiao Yang, I'll send you my location. Once you're back in Binhai, just follow the location. We'll be waiting for you here."

"OK."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Xun drove back to the coastal town in less than half an hour and went there according to the location address sent by Chu Tai.

About twenty minutes later, Yang Xun drove to a secluded corner, to the outside of a large residential house.

"Xiao Yang, you're back."

Chu Tai led one person out of the house.

Before he could introduce himself, Lü Yang, standing beside him, looked at Yang Xun in surprise: "Brother Yang, it's actually you?"

Yang Xun looked at Lü Yang in surprise: "Boss Lü, I didn't expect that the person introduced by Elder Chu was you. It seems that we are quite destined to meet again."

Chu Tai stared at the two of them: "Xiao Yang, A Yang, so you two knew each other all along?"

Lu Yang nodded: "Yes, I know him. I even had some money stolen from me by Brother Yang. I have a deep memory of Brother Yang. I never expected that the person you recommended, Brother Tai, would be Brother Yang."

Chu Tai asked doubtfully, "It's impossible for Xiao Yang to steal a sum of money from you, A Yang. Xiao Yang is just a streamer and he's young. He's not as experienced as you, A Yang, and he's not in the redwood business. How could he possibly steal a sum of money from you?"

"Old Chu, don't listen to Boss Lü's nonsense."

Yang Xun laughed awkwardly, "It was a while ago. Boss Lü took a fancy to a rosewood tree, but he was reluctant to spend the money. So I paid a little more to buy the rosewood tree from the owner. Who knew that after it was felled, it turned out to be of excellent quality, so I made a small profit."

"Brother Yang, if it weren't for you that day, the tree owner would definitely have sold that rosewood tree to me for 20,000 yuan."

Lu Yang retorted, "Looking back, I even suspect that you were following us that day, Brother Yang. Why did you arrive as soon as we got there? And why were you not interested in anything else but went in to look at the rosewood tree? In the end, you even tried to take the rosewood tree from me. You bought the rosewood tree for 40,000 yuan, and I ended up taking it from you for 150,000 yuan."

"In this whole ordeal, I lost at least 100,000 yuan, while you, Brother Yang, easily made over 100,000 yuan. Brother Yang, were you really following me that day, knowing I had my eye on a rosewood tree?"

Yang Xun replied calmly, "No, Boss Lü, how could I possibly be following you? If I hadn't happened to be visiting that village and livestreaming the scenery, and hadn't just stumbled upon you all gathered around a rosewood tree, I wouldn't even know you, Boss Lü, so how could I possibly be following you?"

"So that's how it is. So you two had already formed such a deep friendship."

Having learned the whole story, Chu Tai looked at the two of them and laughed, "Then I don't need to introduce you. Ah Yang, it's your fault for not daring to go all in on the rosewood tree you had your eye on, and letting Xiao Yang snag it. You can't blame Xiao Yang for this."

Let's put that aside for now. Ah Yang, I recommended Xiao Yang to you. See if Xiao Yang can help you find that batch of rosewood.

Ah Yang, don't underestimate Xiao Yang. Xiao Yang is very capable. As long as someone asks Xiao Yang for help in finding a missing pet or something, Xiao Yang will definitely have a way to find it.

Yesterday, Xiao Yang even helped someone find a hidden Ming Dynasty landscape painting in their ancestral home. If it's genuine, it's probably worth millions. If I hadn't happened to witness your theft of your rosewood, A-Yang, I wouldn't have introduced Xiao Yang to you.

"No... Brother Yang, you have such special skills? Since Brother Tai praises your skills so much, let's go in and take a look. I'll tell you in detail later."

Lu Yang looked at Yang Xun in surprise, then turned and led the way into the house.

Once inside, Yang Xun discovered that it was a place that combined living quarters and timber processing, covering a large area with living and working areas.

However, Yang Xun did not ask any further questions, but continued to follow Lü Yang into a spacious room that looked like a storage room for timber.

Lu Yang pointed to the room and the violently broken window and said to Yang Xun, "Xiao Yang, look at this room and that window. My precious mahogany pieces were all piled up here, but when I came over this morning, all the precious mahogany pieces in the room were stolen, and the surveillance cameras outside the window were also destroyed, so there are no clues to find the mahogany pieces."

Brother Tai strongly recommended you, Xiao Yang. He said that if you could help me find this batch of rosewood, he was willing to give you a reward of 200,000 yuan. It all depends on whether you can earn that 200,000 yuan from me.

Ding.

[Artifact Exploration Commission: Lü Yang has commissioned the retrieval of a batch of rosewood. Accept? Refuse?]

When the object-finding commission was triggered again, Yang Xun was overjoyed and secretly accepted the commission.

After all, accepting a commission means there will be no loss even if it fails, and the commissioned task won't disappear in a few days.

The mission that Li Si commissioned to find the Yellow Croaker Sea area is still ongoing.

Therefore, no matter what kind of commission it is, as long as it can be triggered, accept it all.

The next second, after accepting Lü Yang's commission to search for objects, Yang Xun immediately opened the system map.

Just as he had predicted, the stolen redwood could not possibly be found within a four-kilometer radius of this location.

Seeing Yang Xun's stunned expression, Lü Yang asked, "Little Yang, do you have a solution? But it's normal that you don't. The police are so capable of solving cases, yet they still have no clue. It's a pity about my batch of rosewood. I should have known better than to bring so much here and leave it."

"Ah Yang, it's too late to regret it now. Just be more careful next time. Only bring it over if it needs processing, and put it in the safest place if it doesn't."

Chu Tai offered a word of comfort, then looked at Yang Xun and said, "Little Yang, it all depends on whether you have the ability to earn the 200,000 reward."

"Old Chu, I also want to earn this 200,000."

Yang Xun replied, then looked at Lü Yang and said, "Boss Lü, I promise to help you look for it, but I won't make any guarantees. Not only is wood not a pet, but it was stolen so long ago, and there are no useful clues left at the scene. Finding your batch of redwood is like looking for a needle in a haystack."

After finishing speaking, Yang Xun took out his equipment, started a live stream, and began to introduce the topic.

"Family members, the host has returned to the coastal town. However, a friend has introduced a big business opportunity to the host. A friend of mine had a batch of precious rosewood stolen, and he contacted me, hoping that I could help him recover the rosewood."

The host made no guarantees and immediately began leading his family to inspect the area where the rosewood was stolen, hoping to find useful clues to help his friend locate the stolen wood.
