10. My sister's pet shop
Huaxia, Shanghai market.
On the banks of the Huangpu River, a high-end residential community. The community is called Riverview Garden and has seven super high-rise residential buildings.
At this time, on the 52nd floor of Building 3, in a duplex suite. In a small cubicle, on a narrow bed, a figure suddenly appeared.
Shi Lin opened his eyes, looked around, and stretched.
"It's finally home. ”
Shi Lin got up and got out of bed and threw his backpack to the side of the bed.
Inside the backpack was the spoils of his trip.
Misha thought he hadn't taken anything out of the bathroom slot.
In fact, she was wrong, he took it in advance, and it was all in this bag. The black woman was also slapped unconscious by him.
Inside the backpack were a crystal clear gemstone, two diamond necklaces, two sculptures, and three paintings.
These were the most precious things in the hidden groove of the mechanism, but he didn't break his promise, he did only take a third, he didn't take one more thing, he just took the most precious thing.
For example, Van Gogh's paintings.
He could tell that the paintings were genuine.
When he was 7 years old, the 19th skill he acquired was "Treasure Identification Skills". He can distinguish the authenticity of any antique painting with just one glance, and even accurately tell the age.
It is precisely because of this, coupled with the treasures that he has traveled many times, that he played with antiques in high school.
In fact, he is quite famous in the Shanghai market collection circle.
But because of his age, they all think that he is just a waste of fame.
……
Walking out of the compartment, the door of the compartment closes, and there is a decorative wall of roses carved from 'golden silk nanmu'.
Ordinary people can't see what's going on inside.
Outside the compartment is a bedroom in predominantly grey tones, luxuriously furnished. Outsiders don't know that some of the decorative paintings hanging in the room, as well as some furnishings, are all treasures.
The bedroom was luxurious, but the place where he slept at night was in that cubicle.
There's no way, who told him to say crossing, and he crossed it.
Usually where he wears it from, when he comes back, he goes back there.
If it's in the bedroom, if it happens that his family comes in to look for him, and he suddenly jumps out out of thin air, then he can't frighten his family!
So, he had to sleep in that uncomfortable, hidden cubicle.
Not anymore, though.
In the future, he will be able to control the time of the crossing, and he can be completely prepared to find a suitable place to cross.
In the future, you can sleep in a big bed.
Shi Lin jumped onto the bed, squinted and laughed.
……
Glancing around the bedroom, he came downstairs to the living room. I swept around and saw a note on the coffee table.
Picked up the note and looked at it.
There were two lines on the note, the first of which he wrote: "Don't read ...... on a business trip"
He lives alone in this house, and his parents live on the outskirts of Shanghai, and they don't come home often because they are busy with work. Sometimes, though, family members come over to take a look.
And when his sister came home, she often came over.
In order to prevent his family from finding himself worried, he left a note in advance.
There is also a line of delicate small print under the note,
"Make a call when you get home, Manager Zhao from the auction house will look for you. ”
- Shi Qiu
Seeing this line of small characters, he smiled, it was left by his sister Shi Qiu.
As for the auction house!
Over the years, he has amassed a lot of wealth by crossing again and again.
In high school, Stone Forest began to use this wealth to develop slowly.
During this time, he also worked in an antique shop.
High school students play antiques, haven't you seen them?
After going to college, he sold an antique shop and set up an auction house.
Regarding the auction house, he did not deliberately run and develop.
Counting the time, it will soon be the 3rd anniversary of the opening of the 'Autumn Forest Auction House'. Not to mention nationwide. Even in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, it only belongs to the scale of the third line.
However, although the scale of 'Qiulin Auction House' is not large, it has a small reputation in the Shanghai market. Who made him throw out a fine piece or two from time to time?
In the past 3 years, he has come up with a total of 2 fine products, and he has established his current reputation.
However, in the past three years, except for 2 pieces of fine products with a total price of 390 million RMB, the other lots are too rubbish. None of the transactions of a single lot have exceeded 2 million, and there are even many unsuccessful auction records.
However, he has never been very concerned about the development of auction houses.
All the operation of the auction house is entrusted to the professional managers.
In fact, if he wants, he can take a random painting from the wall of his bedroom, or a random sculpture for decoration, and he can make a sensation in the Shanghai collecting world.
After pondering the note for a while, he returned to his bedroom.
I opened my bag, took out the trophies I had brought back from South Africa, stuffed one of Van Gogh's "Sunflowers" into another bag, took a shower, changed my clothes, and walked out of the house with my bag.
……
Leaving the Riverview Garden, Shilin walked towards the pedestrian street, which is about two miles away from the community.
Walk out of the community, walk south along a road in front of the community, walk about a mile to the intersection, turn a corner and walk about a mile to arrive.
Sister Shi Qiu opened a pet shop on the pedestrian street.
Usually my sister stays there.
Soon, he came to a shop called 'Qiulin Pet Shop'.
The pet store is not large, and there are only two storefronts.
The name 'Qiulin Pet Shop' is also taken from the name of him and his sister, which is the same as the name of his auction house.
"Woo Woo ......"
"Wow! Wow ......"
Before he could enter the store, Shi Lin heard a husky cry. Accompanied by panicked, anxious shouts, and the thumping of heavy objects falling to the ground.
Shi Lin was stunned, what happened?
He hurriedly pushed the door open and walked in.
Inside the store stood three young women dressed fashionably and looking a little anxious, anxiously looking at the three huskies who were chained to their stakes.
On the side, there were two girls in white coats, looking anxious.
There was also a 25- or 6-year-old girl. She wore a shawl with long hair, a classic and durable black and white checked shirt underneath, a white knitted undershirt, black leggings, and a pair of high heels on her feet.
"Sister. ”
Shi Lin walked in and shouted to the girl.
This girl is none other than his sister Shi Qiu.
Shi Qiu's appearance is exquisite, with a melon seed face, which is somewhat similar to Shi Lin. When you go out, even if you don't need to be introduced, you will be recognized as a pair of sisters and brothers.
"Stone Forest, you're back. ”
Seeing Shi Lin, a flash of joy flashed on Shi Qiu's face.
Seriously, their family is not happy.
Needless to say, Shi Qiu left home since he was a child.
And Shi Lin, although he has been at home since he was a child, his parents are busy all day and night, and they rarely accompany him. Before the age of 4, my sister was still there, and I was accompanied by my sister. After the age of 4, he was an orphan.
"Mmmm, sister, this is ......"
Shi Lin asked, pointing to the chaotic pet shop.
The three crazy huskies startled some cats and dogs to bark wildly. There were also three young women on the side who shouted anxiously at the husky, Erbao, Nini, don't be afraid, and so on.
The two staff members in white coats also looked like they didn't know what to do.
There were also a few chairs and a few broken vases falling on the side.
The whole store looks messy.
