Chapter 46: The Best of Both Worlds
Because of the previous table, several people present were enthusiastic about Lin Dong, and they chatted with Lin Dong on topics they were interested in, although Lin Dong didn't talk much every time, but the ideas he said were very right, which not only exceeded their cognition, but also opened their eyes, which made the people present have a much higher evaluation of Lin Dong. There were even two girls who looked at Lin Dong with wrong eyes, including the girl Lin Dong met first, her name was Li Yuanyuan, she was in her third year of high school, and her title for Lin Dong had also become Lin Dong's brother.
Except for Ye Qiong, several other people introduced themselves one after another, which made Ye Qiong very depressed, and finally left the scene early.
Hu Zhengming never mentioned why he called Lin Dong over, and Lin Dong didn't ask, this kind of thing is better for the other party.
"Brother Lin Dong, it's boring to stay in this club, let's go sing, shall we?" After tasting the perfect taste and chatting for a while, several people present began to be impatient, and after getting together to discuss, Li Yuanyuan was pushed by the public to come to Lin Dong and said coquettishly: "People haven't heard you sing yet!" ”
Li Yuanyuan's voice is very soft, a little coquettish, but not pretentious at all, and it sounds very comfortable. Lin Dong turned his head and glanced at Hu Zhengming, but did not answer.
Hu Zhengming said for Lin Dong: "You go first today, I asked Lin Dong to come over but I have something serious to discuss." Besides, it's going to be a holiday soon, Lin Dong has a lot of things to prepare, so let's have time later! ”
Although Li Yuanyuan was a little reluctant, she still nodded sensibly and said to Lin Dong: "Brother Lin Dong, can you give me your phone number?" I'll have time to play with you later! ”
Lin Dong exchanged numbers with her, and Li Yuanyuan said goodbye to Lin Dong sweetly and left with her friend.
Sending people away, Hu Zhengming said straight to the point:
"I invited you over this time, in fact, I really have something to ask you."
Lin Dong waved his hand: "Don't ask for anything, if there is anything, as long as it does not violate the principles, as long as I can do it, I will do my best." ”
Lin Dong's impression of Hu Zhengming is still good, the first time they met, he helped himself testify, regardless of whether he had other purposes at the time, but it is undeniable that he helped Lin Dong. And he has a good reputation at school, although he is a rich second generation, but that kind of thing that starts and ends up abandoning has never happened, and he is also very low-key and very righteous.
Hu Zhengming's eyes flashed with a hint of joy, and he said with a smile: "I knew that you would definitely help me." Here's the thing, something happened to me recently at home and I need to get help. The person I'm looking for is not short of money, he just likes to collect, and he is on Hong Kong Island, although my family asked me not to meddle in this matter, but I am quite familiar with this person, so I am ready to buy some antiques in private and send them over. ”
Speaking of this, Hu Zhengming touched his nose and explained a little embarrassedly: "Because I didn't want my family to know, I didn't have a lot of funds at my disposal, so I didn't think about going to those antique shops - after all, although the things in those places can be authentic, the price is too expensive...... That's why I thought of you. ”
Lin Dong pondered for a moment, this matter is not very difficult to do. It's just more troublesome, because he has been to several antique markets in Haishi, and it is not so easy to really pick up and get something, it takes luck and time.
"When do you want it?" Lin Dong asked Hu Zhengming, "Are you in a hurry?" ”
"I'm in a hurry, I want to go this holiday!" Hu Zhengming rubbed his hands, "I also know that this matter is a bit troublesome, and it will make you suffer, but I promise, as long as this matter is done, I owe you a big favor, no matter what you need my help in the future, just say it!" Also, you also saw those people just now, except for Ye Qiong, the relationship between others and me is very iron, and their families also have some energy, if they want to do something in the sea market, it's easy! ”
Hu Zhengming said it clearly, and Lin Dong couldn't help but admire it a little. These rich second generations are not all as sloppy and bullying as Ma Hongjun, many of them are affected by the environment, and their vision and way of doing things are very much in line with the current general trend.
Lin Dong's heart moved, and he said to Hu Zhengming: "I do have a few things in my hand, and they are all true. I also went to a few streets to find it some time ago, because the money spent is not much, it is nothing for you, but the origin of these things is a little inappropriate, are you sure that they are sent to Hong Kong Island? ”
When Hu Zhengming heard that Lin Dong had the goods in his hand, he was overjoyed and said, "Sure, sure!" I'll send it over myself! Don't worry! ”
"It doesn't seem like the artifacts can be cleared, right?" Lin Dong was a little worried.
Hu Zhengming shook his head: "There are many names such as sending photos and gifts, and besides, Hong Kong Island is not a foreign country, and the person I am looking for is also a typical patriot, give it to him, don't be afraid." He thought that Lin Dong's things might come from the ground or from an unclean source, and that he might be worried about this matter for others, but Hu Zhengming didn't have the slightest idea.
Lin Dong nodded: "Okay, if you have time, you can take the things away today." ”
Hu Zhengming's face was slightly embarrassed: "I have to wait, tomorrow, I didn't bring my card today." In this way, tomorrow at noon, I will invite you to dinner, and we will do this by the way! ”
Lin Dong nodded in agreement.
Leaving the club, Lin Dong took a taxi back to Haida and went directly to the house he rented.
He Dongcheng was not there, Lin Dong went directly into the back room and took out a few antiques from the basement.
In fact, Lin Dong had been worrying about the whereabouts of these things before. After all, these things were bribed by the corrupt official, and there must be a source. If you want to take it out and sell it, I am afraid that someone will be traced, and I am afraid that there will be trouble. Although the information in Lin Dong's mind, the corrupt official didn't confess these things in the end, but he was not afraid of 10,000, he was afraid of what happened.
Now, as long as it is sent to Hong Kong Island and entered a private collection, it only takes a long time, even if someone finds out, there is no trouble.
After carefully wiping these things clean, and then wrapping them and putting them in the bag, Lin Dong sent the information of the things to Hu Zhengming, so that he could prepare himself.
At noon the next day, in the box of Shunjiang Restaurant near Haida, Lin Dong put out three kinds of porcelain one by one. He didn't take out the master's painting, and was going to keep it for himself.
"I checked it yesterday, if these three things are at auction," Hu Zhengming was obviously prepared, pointing to the things one by one and said: "It should be able to fetch a price of about seven million." ”
Lin Dong waved his hand: "Not so much." I didn't spend a million in total, so you can just give me a cost price. By the way, you'd better find someone to get it identified. ”
Hu Zhengming said: "Although I want to buy things cheaply, I can't do this, so let's do it, I'll transfer you one million first, and then after the appraisal, I will transfer another two million to you." How about I buy your stuff at half price? ”
His original reserve price was four million. In fact, four million is already all his private money. However, after knowing Lin Dong's "cost price", he "peace of mind" dropped it by one million.
Lin Dong nodded indispensably, this was originally a windfall, a little more or less, it didn't have much impact for the time being.
The two of them completed the transaction smoothly.
