Chapter 31: The Phoenix Singing Kite

"Are you generous, we are stingy?" Xie Jiuli sneered and then slid his hand lightly over the strings of a guzheng beside him, stared at him, and said, "Then do I want to thank you well, thank you for helping me replace all the strings for free?"

Xie Jiuli's words froze in the shopkeeper's heart like ice, making him shudder. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info But for now, he could only continue to pretend to be stupid, and said with an aggrieved face: "Hey, what are you talking about, sir." I just broke one and replaced it. Changing strings is also very expensive, how can I change so much for you. You think, I'm not doing charity, I'm also a small business, how can I do this!"

Xie Jiuli listened to his defense and said unimpressedly: "Small business? I see that the shopkeeper has not made less money, right? Of course I know that you will definitely not do charity! You are a businessman, so you are naturally more shrewd than us, if there is no profit to make, why do you want to change all our strings for me?" Before he finished speaking, his face turned fierce, and he said coldly: "Take out all the twelve strings for me, if you have one less, I will smash your shop!"

The shopkeeper had a fine cold sweat on his head, and said, "I don't know what you're talking about? If you mess around like this again, I'll call the police!"

Mo Tutu stepped forward and pointed at him and scolded: "You still call the police?

The shopkeeper stiffened his neck and shouted, "You have no evidence, be careful that I sue you for slander!"

"Proof?" said the squirt walked behind him, holding the strings that the shopkeeper had not yet hidden, which he had taken from the table in the inner hall. He walked past the shopkeeper and looked at him head-on, saying, "You mean that?"

The shopkeeper's expression froze, his thin and unslit eyes suddenly widened, and his eyes were full of astonishment. He said hesitantly: "You, you, you...... When?"

Fearing that they would forcibly break into the inner hall to find the strings, his fat body stood in the way to the inner hall, and anyone who wanted to enter had to let him dodge. But he never moved from where he was, and when did this man cross himself and enter the inner hall?

It's over, it's hard to get stubble......

The shopkeeper's face was incredulous, and his body began to tremble involuntarily.

Xie Jiuli looked at him and said in a fierce voice: "Come on, why did you change all my strings?"

The four of them surrounded the shopkeeper, who watched their depressed bodies go limp, and sat down weakly holding on to the table next to them.

Xie Jiuli didn't want to watch him be silent to delay time, so he stepped forward and twisted his collar, lifted him slightly, and said, "Tell me quickly, why did you change my strings?"

The shopkeeper's face turned red, and he said urgently, "You let go of your hand! I can't breathe!"

He pressed Xie Jiuli's shoulder, and then pulled him away. "Don't be rude. ”

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This brother is so right, don't be so rude!"

Xie Jiuli glared, "You stole my strings, and you dare to call me rude?" I won't smash your black shop today, I'm sorry for what you said!"

The shopkeeper retracted his neck with a frightened expression, "If you dare to smash the store, I will call the police!"

Xie Jiuli rolled his eyes, raised his foot and wanted to kick over. Qian Qian stopped him and said seriously: "Don't waste time, you asked what we want to know, it's not too late to move." ”

The owner of the "......" store originally thought that this man in sunglasses was a good person, but after listening to this sentence, he could almost imagine his crooked brain because of these strings, and he estimated that he really wanted to lose his store. Immediately, he hurriedly said: "Oh, what are you trying to ask, I just say." It's just a few deer tendons, do you still have to smash my shop?"

Mo Tutu knocked on his head and snorted: "We are all stingy people, who let you provoke us!"

Wei Xiao'an and Qian Ji glanced at each other, and then asked the shopkeeper, "Didn't you say that our piano is an ordinary piano, why did you change our strings?"

The shopkeeper was a little overwhelmed by the misfortune that happened today, and said weakly: "In addition to being an antique, your one is indeed an ordinary zither. ”

Xie Jiuli looked at him sideways and said angrily: "Normally, you still change my strings!"

The shopkeeper looked at him and explained, "Listen to me!" He paused before continuing: "Guzheng, even if it is an antique, only famous pianos will be collected." What's more, the older the guzheng is, the more it will be eroded by time, and it is difficult to preserve it at all. So even your piano doesn't have any special value to us at all. ”

When he said this, he raised his finger and pointed to the strings in his hand, and then said, "This string is made of deer tendons, and it can be used to this day. I haven't seen it on the market for a long time, so this one is more valuable. I just see that you don't know anything about the guzheng, so I deliberately broke a string when I borrowed it to play, and took it to the back hall for you to change. ”

He waved his hands and explained: "We are also very particular about the guzheng in this industry, although we have replaced the strings made of your deer tendons, but I have replaced you with nylon strings, which is a good thing." It's much stronger than your deer tendons!"

Wei Xiaoan sneered: "No matter how expensive the nylon strings are, if they can compare to our strings made of deer tendons, why should you change them?"

The shopkeeper sighed, and then said, "The strings made of deer tendons are similar to the strings made of horsetails, and they are relatively easy to break. And it doesn't make a lot of sound when playing, and I love to go out of tune. It's no longer used by anyone. What's more, the process of drying the tendons of animals such as deer tendons into strings is still not understood by many people. You also know that technology is so advanced. ”

He sighed again, slapped his thigh, and said helplessly: "If someone hadn't asked for this, where would I have changed your strings!"

Xie Jiuli raised his eyebrows and asked, "Someone paid for this string at a high price?"

The shopkeeper shook his head with a sad face, "Yes, if someone hadn't bought the strings made of deer tendon at a high price, where would I have done such a thing!"

Qian Qian pondered for a while, and asked at the same time as Wei Xiaoan, "Who wants to collect this string at a high price?"

The shopkeeper looked at them and said, "Even if I tell them, you don't know each other?"

Mo Tutu said angrily: "Don't we know each other when you say it!"

The shopkeeper's face was frustrated, so he had no choice but to say: "The big boss of the Lin Group! If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to buy the deer tendon strings at a price of 500,000 yuan, who would be eye-catching with your phoenix zither!"

When the four of them heard him say this, they all looked surprised. In the confusion of the shopkeeper, Qi Shushu asked, "Feng Ming Zheng?"
