Volume 1 Chapter 71 The Statue of Shakya
"Boss Don. Are you looking down on me, Wang Gui?"
Wang Gui saw that Tang Hao asked Xiaogang to put away the pennant and went directly to the courtyard, his face became a little ugly, and his face was embarrassed.
"You are the father of my sister's classmate, I can't exaggerate to call you Uncle Wang. β
Tang Hao saw that the other party nodded, and continued: "I'm in the antique business." It's not about saving lives and helping the wounded, your pennant is hanging here, if others think I'm dedicated to charity, what do others think? There's no need to cause unnecessary trouble. β
Wang Gui understood as soon as he heard it, there have been endless forced donations in recent years, and there are countless strange things, Tang Hao should be careful, it's not wrong, he misunderstood Tang Hao.
"Boss Don, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you. β
Wang Gui said, hehe smiled, and said: "But you have helped me a lot, and this pennant can't be offset, I just want to repay you well, this is not a chance, I have an old watch, in the suburbs, to sell his family's ancestral things, found several, but no one took over, if you are interested, I will take you over, let's take a look." If it's a good baby, I can still help you pick up a leak, right?"
"Ancestral?"
Tang Hao was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Uncle Wang, what is the ancestral heirloom?"
"I can't tell you clearly, it seems to be a stone statue, I asked him to take a picture and send it to me, I helped him contact the buyer, and he sent me a photo, but the picture was so unclear that I couldn't see it clearly. β
Wang Gui said, took out his mobile phone, called up the photo, and showed it to Tang Hao.
I saw that the photo was a stone Buddha statue, hazy, the details of the carving, completely unclear, but the length of the look was about one meter, and the specific other details were completely unclear.
"Uncle Wang. Nowadays, smartphones have a strong camera function, so they won't shoot so badly. β
There is no one else in this photographic technology, Tang Hao is speechless.
"Boss Don. I'm an old watch. said that his mobile phone was flooded, the camera was broken, and the shooting was not good. β
Wang Gui said speechlessly: "So I still want to take you over to see, if it's a good thing, you can accept it, if it's not a good thing, let's come back." I'll pull you there. You don't have to drive. It's a lot of trouble. β
Tang Hao thought about it, yes, anyway, it's okay this morning, it still takes some time to go to Pingzhou Gongpan, it's idle and idle, it doesn't hurt to go on a trip, just like Wang Gui said, if it's a good thing, it's a good thing, it's not a good thing, let's come back, and we won't lose anything.
You can't park here on the antique street, and when you get to the place where Wang Gui parked, Tang Hao found that it was a taxi and was very surprised, "Uncle Wang." You're renting it out?"
"Yes. It's a taxi, but this year just opened, I was laid off before, it took a lot of money to drive a taxi, they said that the taxi is not as good as a day, I don't know if it's lucky, but earn more than them, maybe it's too lucky, it took luck, my daughter soon had an accident, and all the money I earned went in. If you hadn't donated my 80,000 yuan, I really wouldn't have been able to hold it. β
Wang Gui waited for Tang Hao to get into the car, determined the route with Tang Hao, and started the car.
"The second surgery will cost a lot. β
Seeing that Wang Gui was under such pressure, Tang Hao guessed that the second operation fee would only cost a lot.
"Hmm. The second operation was more complicated, and the hospital suggested inviting big experts from the capital, and the surgeries were all first-class experts in the industry, with a total of 180,000 yuan. β
Wang Gui said: "But it doesn't matter, I can still hold on, and when I recover, the 80,000 yuan will definitely be returned to Boss Xiao Tang." β
"I said it was donated to you, and naturally it was donated to you. β
Although my sister didn't mention Wang Gui's career, she also knew that his family was very difficult, although she made some money by renting, but her daughter's first surgery fee was all taken in, and more than half of the compensation costs for laid-off workers were spent on parents who lost their ability to workγ
Wang Gui Lao Biao is in a village called Xiao Li Zhuang, after driving in, I found that the construction of this village is very good, antique, green bricks and green tiles, every family has a car, the village environment is very clean, and there is a car parked in front of the door.
"Boss Don. Xiaolizhuang is a civilized village in the city, a typical tree, and the development is very good. β
Wang Gui explained.
After Wang Gui stopped in front of an old-fashioned bungalow and a yard without a gate, Tang Hao was very surprised, compared with other new-style buildings, this is simply shabby, not to mention cars, even the electric three-wheelers that are now popular in the countryside are not, the yard is even more messy, chickens, ducks and geese are running around in the yard in a hurry, at a glance, there are, duck feces and goose feces everywhere, in this weather, this smell of stinking and stinking is comparable to nuclear weapons, the taste, not to mention how sour it is.
"Boss Don. My old cousin was okay, but he was good at gambling, gambling if he had money, and his mother-in-law would not be able to run the house, he was lazy to do it, and the two of them had money either gambling or eating and drinking, where could they have the money to renovate the house, originally after the above regarded this as a civilized village, they offered to help them renovate the house, they only needed to take out 20,000 yuan, and the rest of the above subsidy was used to build a house, but they didn't take 20,000 yuan, and the village took out 20,000 yuan to lend them, and guess what? As a result, they took the 20,000 yuan in the village, and the two of them gambled and smashed in, and after that, no one cared about them. β
After Wang Gui finished speaking, he yelled, "Old cousin, I brought people here, hurry up and get things out." β
Although the yard is large, it is full of...... There was not even a place to put his feet, Wang Gui thought about it, it was better not to go in, just outside, and let people get things out. β
"You're yelling, that thing is so heavy, how can you let me get it?
The sound of the old watch urn and the sound of the urn came out.
"Let's go. Let's go inside. β
Tang Hao said.
Avoiding, I finally got to the yard, and saw a middle-aged man squatting under the eaves smoking a cigarette, and saw Wang Gui bringing Tang Hao over, looking him up and down, and then moved his eyes to Wang Gui for a while, "How is your daughter?"
"It's going well, those two thousand. Thank you. I'll pay you back when I pay you this month. β
Wang Gui said with a smile.
"You still have the heart to laugh, it's because of my jokes. I think you're not as good as me, you have to serve two old people, and now you have a small accident, a butt of debts, enough for you to pay off, if you want to live an easier life, just learn from me, be an old man, have debts and no debts, the so-called debt-free body is light. β
Wang Gui said.
Wang Gui smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said to the old watch: "Don't talk about these useless things, the tree needs a skin, and the person lives with a face." I still want to have a face. But thank you anyway. No, I brought Boss Xiao Tang here, if your ancestral heirloom is really a treasure, Boss Xiao Tang will definitely not treat you badly. β
"This boss is really young, doing antique business? Although I don't know this business, I also know the depth of antiques, is your level enough?
Wang Gui said.
"I didn't make any money, I was fooling around. β
Tang Hao was talking when his phone rang.
Hurriedly took out his mobile phone, and when he saw the call, it was Zhen Yuexuan calling, "Xuanxuan." β
"Xiao Gang said that you went to Xiao Li Zhuang. You went to Xiao Li Zhuang to see the baby, what kind of baby? Is it really a treasure of real value?"
Zhen Yuexuan said.
"I haven't seen it yet, I'm not sure, but I'll tell you when I do. β
Tang Hao said.
"Good. β
Hanging up the phone, Tang Hao said, "Let's go and have a look now." β
"Hmm. β
Wang Gui took off his cigarette and took Tang Hao and Wang Gui to the earthen house connected to the main house, the house was a few years old, longer than the stone house, and the layers of soil fell down, as if it would collapse at any time, which was very scary.
Pushing open the wooden door, I saw that Wang Gui's old watch didn't know where to grab it, just listen to the click, the lamp turned on, the lamp is the kind of old-fashioned incandescent lamp, the light is limited, the whole swarthy earthen house seems to be lit with a large version of the candle.
"Got a flashlight?"
Wang Gui asked the old watch.
"What am I going to do with that?"
Wang Gui shook his head and said, "Anyway, this is handed down from the ancestors, if you like it, take 100,000 yuan, and you can take it away." β
"Boss Xiao Tang, I'll go get a flashlight. β
Wang Gui said and ran out, and he had it in the car.
At this time, Tang Hao, completely attracted by this painted stone carving, this is a statue of Shakya, only to see the Buddha's eyebrows and eyes, smiling, both hands fearless and wishing seal, robe, inside the long skirt, stomping feet, Tang Hao saw its faint glow of treasure, only this statue of Shakya is real, but look at its details, Tang Hao heartache, because of improper protection, the house is damp all the year round, the statue of Shakya is "moldy", and in some places the painting is very serious, so that its value is greatly discounted.
If this is a well-protected statue of Sakya, the valuation must not be low, he now understands that he has found several antique dealers to see, why people don't want it, it is seriously damaged, and it is completely thrown in the mud house like garbage for many years and soaked in damp moisture, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it is a treasure, preconceived, and it has a certain impact on their identification, and in the end they can't look down on it, which is not surprising, but in the final analysis, it is also not strong enough, and it is eye-catching.
"Old watch, how did you get it, the damage is so serious. β
When Wang Gui came back, he took a flashlight and was dumbfounded, he didn't expect this stone statue to be moldy, and what was even more exaggerated was that the lower half of his body was covered in green hair. You point to this moldy stone statue with green hair, and tell others that it is a treasure, who will believe it?
"Less nonsense, anyway, it's a treasure handed down from the ancestors, Boss Xiao Tang. If you like it, hurry up and give a price, I will give you a discount for Wang Gui's sake, a 50,000 discount, 50,000 yuan, if you really want it, 50,000 yuan you can take away. If you don't want it, you can come from where you come from. β
Wang Gui's face was embarrassed, and he felt that the price of 100,000 yuan was too high, Tang Hao might not buy it, and immediately took the initiative to lower the price.
