PS: Brothers, the monthly ticket list is about to fall out of the top 100, ask for a monthly ticket, and you have to ask for a recommendation ticket, and the ranking of the recommendation list has been falling down recently, ask for a recommendation ticket.

When Gao Yang said that Yelena was his girlfriend, the clerk who received Gao Yang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Maybe I'm wrong, you are the lucky one to have such a girlfriend." ”

Gao Yang smiled and said, "It's really lucky to be favored by a beauty, but can you tell me that this violin can't be sold to me?"

The clerk said apologetically: "Sir, we can't sell you this piano, not for you, in fact, we are not for anyone, let me first introduce you to this violin, this piano is the Italian luthier Stradivari's work in 1724, as a layman, you may not have heard of this name, but let's put it this way, Stradivarius's piano is every violinist's dream, and Stradivari's piano is not only a musical instrument, but also a highly collectible antique,

Stradivari's works, as long as they are well preserved and can still be played, are worth at least one million or more, and this piano was auctioned by violin master Isaac Stern in 1963, and since then this piano has been Isaac Stern's playing instrument, and when Mr. Isaac Stern died, he made a will to give this piano to our store to sell, and it was sold at the original price when he bought this piano.

The proceeds from the sale of this instrument will be donated to a charitable fund, but the condition for buying this instrument is that the person who uses it must be a young artist, and the artistic attainment must be able to match the instrument, sir, if this instrument is auctioned normally, the starting price should be more than $1.2 million, and I personally expect the final price to be at least $2 million. And in our shop, it only costs 620,000 dollars, and the famous masters can't buy it, and the young people can't be qualified or can't get the judgement of the masters, so this instrument has been here for a long time, and now we can't sell it unless you can prove that you are worthy of it. ”

After listening to the clerk's tirade, Gao Yang felt that people did have a reason not to sell it, after all, buying this piano is equivalent to picking up a big bargain or secondary, and more importantly. Anyone who can buy this piano is equivalent to being recognized by the music industry.

Although there is a reason why this store can't sell it casually, Gao Yang still remembers Yelena's eager eyes when she looked at this piano, and Gao Yang made up his mind in an instant that this piano must be bought. If you really can't sell it, you have to grab it.

"Sir. If you want to evaluate whether a purchaser is eligible? ”

The clerk smiled. "It's very simple, it's just that you can be recognized by both violin masters, and the two gentlemen standing next to you are qualified, which gentleman is a professor at Juilliard, he is absolutely qualified to make the evaluation, and the other is definitely qualified." It's rare for the two of them to get together, but today is just the right time for you. ”

As the clerk spoke, he pointed to the two old men who had been chatting and saw the two old men. Gao Yang was speechless, no wonder Yelena greeted people excitedly, what kind of master are these two inconspicuous old men.

But what makes Gao Yang depressed is that even if the two people who are qualified to judge are here, there is no way, if he had known that things were so coincidental, he would have to let Yelena try that piano, although it is unlikely that Yelena is qualified to buy it, but he has to try it.

After a long sigh, Gao Yang said with a depressed face: "I was going to surprise my girlfriend, but now it seems that I should have stopped her just now and let her try this piano." ”

The clerk shrugged his shoulders and said with a look of helplessness, "You should indeed let your girlfriend try it, but it's a pity, Jack?" Mr. Kangtou Houfu is leaving the United States today, and he is just changing a string in our shop, and the piano is about to be repaired, so I think your girlfriend will probably have to apply to our boss in advance if she wants to have another chance to try that instrument, and then wait for another chance, but luckily, it's close to the Lincoln Center, and there should be a chance, but it depends on luck, you know, the chances of getting at least two violin masters together at the same time are really rare. ”

Gao Yang regretted it, and he immediately said urgently: "It seems that it is impossible for me to surprise her, but can I give my girlfriend a chance to try? I will go and chase her back immediately." ”

"I'm sorry, sir, but it's up to Jack Kangtou Houfu to agree, and I think you can ask him yourself. ”

Just when Gao Yang was about to ask the old man named Jack Kangtou Houfu if he could wait for a while, Jack Kangtou Houfu suddenly said: "Young man, you said that girl just now was your girlfriend?"

Gao Yang nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, sir, you may have heard our conversation, can you give a very talented girl a chance, would you like to wait a little longer?"

The old man, who was also a violinist, was standing next to Jack Kangtouhoufu, suddenly said, "What's your girlfriend's name?"

"Yelena. ”

"Full name. ”

"Yelena, Yura, Ivanova. ”

"What's your name?"

After Gao Yang hesitated for a moment, he still said honestly: "My name is Gao Yang." ”

The old man nodded and said, "It seems that you are his boyfriend, a Chinese man, called Gao Yang, there is nothing wrong." Few of Yelena's classmates know her full name, because she is reluctant to tell her classmates her full name, but her classmates, especially the male classmates, know that her boyfriend's name is Gao Yang, are you engaged?"

Gao Yang's mouth opened wide in surprise, and he lost his mind and said, "Ahh

The old man shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile on his face: " I'm Yelena's teacher, I deliberately looked at her admission record, so I only knew her full name, and the reason why I know about your existence is because you are a celebrity, let's put it this way, Yelena has been in two fights since she entered school, or she has sent two poor suitors to the hospital, and the reason is because of you, because the person who pursued her mentioned you, haha, you are a public enemy that only exists in legends, especially when Yelena officially announced that she is engaged to you, and she will get married when she graduates, I estimate that the people who want to beat you can stand in a long line。 ”

Gao Yang was completely stunned, he opened his mouth wide, but he couldn't say a word, and looking at Gao Yang's sluggish look, the old man chuckled again: " Yelena is the most gifted child I have ever met, and the hardest working child I have ever met, and one of the things she often says is that her father and boyfriend earned her tuition fees with life as capital, so she didn't allow herself to slacken, I don't know what kind of work you do, and I have no intention of inquiring, but I think you must be engaged in a very dangerous job, young man, you and Yelena are very lucky, you are really lucky to have each other. ”

Gao Yang nodded subconsciously, but he quickly reacted and said urgently: "Sir, since you admire Yelena very much, can you give her a chance?" I really want to buy this piano and give it to her, because I know that she is eager to get this piano, and I also think she is qualified for it. ”

Yelena's teacher nodded and said, "I think so too, if I am qualified to choose, then it will be Yelena, I am very sure of this, and I vouch for my personality." ”

The clerk who entertained Gao Yang immediately said, "Of course you are qualified, but we need two masters to make a choice at the same time. ”

Yelena's teacher smiled and looked at Jack Kangtouhoufu beside him, but Jack Kangtouhoufu pointed to the violin and said to the clerk, "If you are sure that I am also qualified to judge, then sell him the piano, in fact, I was about to say this." ”

Yelena's teacher looked as if he had known that Jack Kangtou Houfu would make such a choice, but the clerk who received Gao Yang was stunned and said, "Sir, of course you are qualified to judge, but have you ever heard any girl play?"

Jack Kangtouhoufu nodded, and said loudly: "Of course, I have heard it twice, once in the Juilliard Student Band, once in her solo, I am old, but I can remember this girl's name firmly, because I am extremely impressed with her, she is the biggest gain of my trip to the United States, her sound has a soul, as long as it is honed, she will be a generation of masters, as far as I am concerned, I don't think anyone else is more qualified to get this piano than her." ”

The two masters made a judgment at the same time, and the person who was judged was not even present, and the clerk who received Gao Yang immediately nodded and said, "I understand, although the boss is not here, I am qualified to make a decision, if the two gentlemen can make a written statement, this piano belongs to Miss Yelena, of course, provided that this gentleman has to pay six hundred thousand dollars." ”

Gao Yang was overjoyed, nodded again and again, and said, "Of course, of course I want to buy it." ”

After Gao Yang finished speaking, he remembered that he didn't have enough money now, he now had $360,000, which was exactly half of it, but there could be no Swiss bank branch there, but New York would definitely have it, and it must be on Wall Street.

"Sir, I don't have enough money on me right now, but I can get it back soon, can I pay half of it as a deposit first?"

The clerk smiled: "Don't be so troublesome, as long as your girlfriend doesn't give up, then just pay within a month, after all, we have to leave time for young people to fundraise." ”

Gao Yang immediately said: "Wait for me, it won't take a month, I will bring the money back soon, by the way, is it okay to pay in cash?"

"Sorry, because it is a large payment, we can only accept cheques or credit cards, of course, transfers, if needed, we can provide you with an account number. ”

As soon as Gao Yang heard about the transfer, he remembered that he only needed to dial a phone call and report his account number and password to transfer the money to any account, so Gao Yang immediately said: "Transfer, transfer immediately." (To be continued......)
