Chapter 12: Selling the Gold Bars
"You're a dog, and you're a Laipi dog!" Zheng Peilan said with some anger in her heart.
She heard Zhou Fan say this again, the last time was when she was at Zhou Fan's table in high school, and she heard Zhou Fan say this to her many times, but it was all fake!
Zhou Fan looked at the beautiful face in the video with a confused expression! What he said was true, it was indeed the first time to praise a girl like this.
What does this girl say about changing her face, she will change her face, she will be angry when she says she is angry, and she laughed just now!
Looking at the angry and good-looking face in the video, Zhou Fan could only apologize to Zheng Peilan: "I'm sorry, Lan Lan, I was wrong......
"What's wrong with you?" asked Zheng Peilan reflexively.
Zhou Fan looked constipated, he knew that he couldn't continue this topic, if he continued to talk, he would die miserably, he had to change the topic, he didn't want the goodwill he had just established to be destroyed!
"I shouldn't have you off, I said the wrong thing. ”
"By the way, when are you going to go back to W City, I'll pick you up when I have time. Zhou Fan changed the subject.
"I had to get my graduation certificate in about a month, and I got it and went back. Zheng Peilan looked at Zhou Fan's helpless but helpless look, and felt a little proud.
"And you're not one of mine, why should I ask you to pick me up? Zheng Peilan looked at the stunned Zhou Fan with a smile and said.
"Didn't you say I could chase you, you have to give me a chance to chase you," Zhou Fan looked at Zheng Peilan and said flatteringly.
"We'll talk about that then. Zheng Peilan said with a slightly red face. She felt that she had made progress with Zhou Fan a little fast, as a girl, she was not very reserved, although she had known Zhou Fan for many years......
Subsequently, after Zheng Peilan asked some about Zhou Fan's daily life at home, the two ended the video.
Looking at the big king and Xiao Wang who were playing in the courtyard of the middle hall, Zhou Fan felt that he still had to continue to strengthen his attack against Zheng Peilan, and he couldn't relax, although the other party had a good impression of him. But if you can't continue to deepen it, this goodwill will slowly disappear.
............
The next day, Zhou Fan, who got up early in the morning to go to the town to buy vegetables, began to wait for the arrival of the biggest deal in his life so far, if the transaction is successful, Zhou Fan's worth will soar to 6.5 million, which is also a lot of money in a big city.
After a while, a silver Mercedes-Benz GLE coupe drove into Zhoujiawan and stopped at the door of the east wing of the old house, and a middle-aged man in his forties got out of the car, and an old gentleman in his sixties, and a man in a suit of about 30 sat in the Mercedes-Benz and did not get down.
Zhou Fan hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, "Which one is Boss Zhang?"
A middle-aged man in his forties stepped forward to shake hands with Zhou Fan and said, "My name is Zhang Zheng'an, I am a buyer, and this old gentleman is Mr. Zhou Xiaochuan, an antique appraisal master I invited!"
Zhou Fan hurriedly shook hands with the old gentleman and said, "Boss Zhang, this old Mr. Zhou is still my family, my name is Zhou Fan to welcome the two distinguished guests!"
After speaking, he turned sideways and invited: "The two distinguished guests came from afar, let's have a cup of tea in the first room and then chat, and the eldest brother in the car will also enter the house together, right?"
Zhang Zhengan replied with a smile: "He is my driver, so he won't enter the house." ”
Zhou Fan then led Zhang Zhengan and Zhou Xiaochuan into the house from the main entrance of the old mansion and led them to the main hall to sit down.
After the two sides sat down, Zhou Xiaochuan looked around, smiled at Zhou Fan and asked, "Zhou Xiaoyou, you must have been in this house for more than a hundred years, right?"
Zhou Fan looked at Zhou Xiaochuan and said: "The old gentleman is really knowledgeable, this house was built by my great-grandfather in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China!"
The old gentleman smiled and waved his hand and said, "Where, it's just that I have seen too much." ”
Then he said: "It seems that Zhou Xiaoyou's ancestors are also rich and noble, and when I see this three-in-five old mansion in the late Qing Dynasty, I think the gold bars sold are also inherited by the ancestors, so there is nothing to worry about." ”
"Well, before I came, I was a little worried that Brother Zhou, there was a problem with the origin of your gold bars, but now after listening to Master Zhou, my heart will be relieved. Zhang Zhengan answered.
Zhou Fan looked at the two opposite and said with a smile: "Both of them are so much older than me, just call me Zhou Fan." ”
Then he continued: "That batch of gold bars was accidentally found by me when I was cleaning the old house recently, you can be completely assured that you are absolutely innocent! ”
Saying that, Zhou Fan got up and said goodbye and walked to the back hall.
Watching Zhou Fan walk away, Zhou Xiaochuan turned his head to look at Zhang Zhengan and said, "Is Mr. Zhang interested in buying this old mansion?"
"What do you say, Master Zhou?" asked Zhang Zheng'an with an eyebrow.
"First of all, the shape of this house is rare in this central region, although I haven't seen it in the back, but I also roughly know the pattern of this house, and secondly, the materials are exquisite, the beams and pillars of this main hall are all golden silk nanmu, if you guess correctly, the middle hall, the main house of the rear house should be golden silk nanmu!
"Master Zhou, are you sure?" asked Zhang Zhengan in a low voice.
"Mr. Zhang doesn't believe in my vision, although this house is broken, as long as you invest some money and find a designer who understands ancient mansions to renovate it, it is no worse than those princes' mansions in City B!" Zhou Xiaochuan looked at Zhang Zheng'an and questioned, and continued without anger.
"Master Zhou, do you think that young man knows that this house is so valuable?" Zhang Zhengan hurriedly replied.
He felt that if this young man didn't know the value of this house, he might be able to pick up a big leak, how expensive the golden silk nanmu is now, Zhang Zhengan knows it clearly!
"I shouldn't know, Mr. Zhang will test it. Zhou Xiaochuan suggested.
"After that happens, the benefits of Master Zhou are indispensable," Zhang Zhengan promised in a low voice.
Zhou Fan didn't know the content of the conversation between the two people in the main hall, he opened the box in the bedroom and took out 16 gold bars from it, Zhou Fan didn't sell all the gold bars, he wanted to keep 3 gold bars as family heirlooms.
After Zhou Fan wrapped the gold bars in old newspapers, he took them to the main hall, put them on the table and smiled at Zhou Xiaochuan: "Master Zhou, everything is here, take a look!"
Hearing this, Zhou Xiaochuan got up and took out a magnifying glass from his side, approached the table and checked it.
Zhou Xiaochuan, who had been looking at it for a long time, straightened up and said to Zhang Zhengan: "Mr. Zhang, it is a thing from the end of the Qing Dynasty, it is in good condition, has a style, and is well preserved!"
Zhang Zhengan got up with a smile and said to Zhou Fan: "Brother Zhou Fan, since Master Zhou has identified it as a good thing, this batch of gold bars will be according to the price we proposed before?"
Zhou Fan replied with a smile: "Of course!"
"Okay, refreshed! You give me an account, and 6.3 million will be on your account immediately, haha!" Zhang Zhengan said with a smile.
After Zhou Fan wrote the bank account number to Zhang Zhengan, he invited the two to stay in the old house for a light meal, and Zhou Fan wanted to thank the two.
Zhang Zhengan and Zhou Xiaochuan glanced at each other, and tacitly said that they wanted to taste local specialties.
After Zhou Fan led the two of them to the middle hall and sat down, the mobile phone transfer text message arrived after a while, and after handing over the gold bars to Zhang Zhengan, he took the gold bars and walked towards the Mercedes-Benz.
Zhou Xiaochuan continued to talk to Zhou Fan about some things about the old house, and after Zhang Zhengan returned to the old house, Zhou Fan was ready to cook.
After Zhang Zheng'an sat down, Zhou Xiaochuan whispered: "Mr. Zhang, this young man doesn't know the value of the old mansion, this mansion is the same as I estimated, the pillars and pillars are all golden silk nanmu!"
Zhang Zhengan nodded at Zhou Xiaochuan to indicate that he understood, and then wanted to go to the kitchen.
"Brother Zhou Fan, it doesn't matter if we look around in this courtyard, right?" Zhang Zhengan asked Zhou Fan at the kitchen door.
"No problem, Mr. Zhang, you can watch it casually!" Zhou Fan said enthusiastically.
Zhou Fan was not afraid that the two of them would see something they shouldn't see, and he locked and hid some important things.
Zhang Zhengan and Zhou Xiaochuan, who had Zhou Fan's consent, looked left and right in the house, touched them with their hands from time to time, and whispered in a low voice.
Zhou Fan in the kitchen was cooking in his hands, but he was thinking about the six million and 3.3 million in the bank account, he was very happy, although this money was obtained by mistake, but it was also an inheritance left to him by his ancestors.
Zhou Fan made 5 local specialties in the kitchen to prepare to entertain Zhang Zhengan and Zhou Xiaochuan, the dishes are perfectly matched with meat and vegetables, and they are all big dishes for drinking!
An hour later, Zhou Fan, who had prepared the dishes, beckoned Zhang Zhengan and Zhou Xiaochuan to the table.
Zhou Fan took out the rice flower fragrance that he bought for more than 400 yuan in the town in the morning and poured a good wine for Zhang Zhengan and Zhou Xiaochuan, and then poured himself a glass, and wanted them to introduce him: "Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhang, these dishes in front of you are our Shennongjia specialties, let me introduce them to you!"
"Mr. Zhang, this dish in front of you is called "Stir-fried Wild Boar Bacon with Zha Guang Pepper", the wild boar bacon we have here has a strong taste and delicious taste, and with our Shennongjia traditional characteristic Zha Guang Pepper, after eating bacon, there will be a fragrance in the mouth!
Zhang Zhengan is usually a glutton, so after hearing Zhou Fan's introduction, he hurriedly got off the chopsticks and tasted it.
And Zhou Xiaochuan next to him laughed and said: "I usually don't care much about food, I can't taste good or bad, let's drink." ”
After Zhou Fan toasted Zhou Xiaochuan with a glass of wine, after helping Zhou Xiaochuan fill it, he turned his head to look at Zhang Zhengan and said, "Mr. Zhang, how is it, it still suits your taste, right?"
Zhang Zhengan gave Zhou Fan a thumbs up, put down his chopsticks and said, "Zhou Fan's little brother has good skills!
Zhou Fan toasted Zhang Zhengan with a glass of wine and said: "The main thing is that the ingredients are good, Shennongjia is not polluted, and the food is all natural." ”
"Like this dish next to Mr. Zhang, wild chestnut braised wild boar trotters, eat it until the mouth is full of gelatin, the taste is unique, and the wild chestnut has the effect of nourishing the kidney and aphrodisiac!"
"Oh, then I'll taste it carefully," Zhang Zhengan picked up the chopsticks and tasted them, and Zhou Xiaochuan was not far behind, following Zhang Zhengan.
