Chapter Seventy-Three: The Bet
Science has proved that when a person is angry, he often speaks amazingly, which is divided into two categories, the first type is the ignorant type, saying that when I went to school, a man and a woman quarreled in the class, and the girl was weak, and suddenly pointed to the boy in a hurry and said: "I gave birth to you with your father......"
Everyone was stunned, and what was even more desperate was that the boy was sluggish, and immediately said: "Mom, I want to breastfeed...... This is more sinister.
Another type is to lift a stone and shoot yourself on your feet, for example, that day I saw two people arguing on the street, and a certain A pointed at a certain B and scolded: "I spit on you and your face is stinky shit......"
Gu Ye probably belongs to the first type, and 3 million can be seen as a tone of interjection here, but it is conceivable that the old man has been angry with me.
According to my meaning, hurry up and say two good words and leave, how do you know that the old man has to ignore people, the old guy must have practiced internal skills, I can't move the slightest hand when I press the box with my hand, he looked at me and said in a bad tone: "Young man, don't be too greedy, 3 million is a lot, my old master has always been fair to do business." β
Look, you're confused, aren't you?
I smiled and said, "Don't make fun of me, this is someone trying to frame me." β
Gu Ye opened the box again, carefully took out the bottle, and gently stroked the cracks on the bottle with his fingertips, I estimated that he should enter a state of madness after touching all the cracks, and hurriedly said: "This bottle used to be good." β
Gu Ye couldn't take his eyes off admiring the lines on the bottle, and said casually: "Nonsense, of course I know it's good, it's just an ordinary thing before it falls, but it's different after it falls-" Gu Ye looked up at me in astonishment, and said, "Why don't you ask me why?" β
"Oh...... Why? β
Gu Ye continued to immerse himself in the fun and said: "This bottle is not the work of a famous craftsman, even if it is well preserved until now, it will be 2 million, but the person who repaired it is different......" Gu Ye closed his eyes, touched the bottom of the bottle with his fingers, and suddenly said, "This person's name is Jin Dajian." β
I was taken aback: "How do you know?" β
Gu Ye smiled slightly: "Famous craftsmen out of conceit, generally engrave their names on the works, this Jin Dajian I can't think of for a while, but he is definitely a skilled person, he engraved four words on the bottom of the bottle: 'Jin Dajian supplement', the craft of repairing porcelain has basically been lost now, this Jin Dajian should be the same era as this bottle, after he made up it, the significance is extraordinary, this thing is more valuable." β
Damn, it turns out that this is the case, if it weren't for Gu Ye showing off his eyesight, I would still be in the dark, Lao Jin can play big this time, fortunately Gu Ye is a backbone of the old antique knowledge, otherwise I would have to go out sideways today.
After the old master finished cleaning my literacy, he held the bottle and watched it endlessly, and finally praised: "What is rare is that he repaired this crack like a painting-hey, I said you don't sell it or not?" β
"Sell! Definitely sells! "Just now, I was planning to sell the box for three or two thousand, and I was very lucky, and I almost bought it and returned the pearls.
"Xiaoqiang, there is still room for this bottle to reach the hands of people who know the goods, but this kind of person is not easy to find during this period, and selling it to me for 3 million is also worth it for."
I laughed, "That's that." "I decided to drop all the pots and pans at home and let Jin Dajian make up for it, and Gu Ye will be my long-term meal ticket in the future.
Gu Ye reluctantly put the bottle back, close the lid, and then instructed people to prepare money, I heard the tiger tell me, this old man is very rich, his vein is the old China of the people, because most of the turmoil have traveled to settle abroad, and it is very strange, the old Gu family is a seedling like Gu Ye, in the head of Gu Ye 40 years old, he is still a ranger and willful gangster character, suddenly one day from an obituary sent by a capitalist country, Gu Ye's second uncle passed away, Lao Gu left a legacy of $7 million to Xiao Gu. Xiao Gu has not yet broken free from the emotions of not knowing whether it is sadness or surprise, a certain capitalist No. 2 big country sent an obituary again, Xiao Gu's third uncle hiccuped and left Xiao Gu an inheritance of 18 million pounds, Xiao Gu has not yet calculated how much the yuan is, Xiao Gu's fourth uncle in a Southeast Asian country rich in ladyboys died, this time it was far behind, only leaving Xiao Gu 30 million Thai beads - his fourth uncle belongs to the poor class in the Gu family.
Gu has 7 uncles......
Every few years after that, as an elite of the Gu family crossed, there would be a large amount of money in the Gu Ye's account. Gu Ye's experience made him feel so emotional that he reached the realm of pampering and not being shocked, as long as his experience was recorded truthfully, it was a YY novel. The current Gu Ye is like a stop in water, and he takes pleasure in pretending to be a blind man to cheat a little money, and occasionally collects some antiques, and lives a very fart life.
I don't know why I suddenly remembered a lyric: Suddenly one day sloppy he changed, sloppy king he is not sloppy we all like him......
But after a long time, the people who sent out haven't come back, and I wonder in my heart that Lao Gu shouldn't play any tricks, a conservative estimate is that there are two or three hundred million people who have transferred 3 million for so long? I was thinking about it, when two big men came back with two big suitcases, and at the suggestion of the old man, they put the boxes on the table and opened them: inside were full of clear old man's heads!
It is said that the funds that have flowed through my hands are also millions, but they are all transfers, just a string of digital changes, and it is the first time to really see so much money, the bundles of RMB, like bricks neatly stacked in the box, half of the room is red, no wonder many things worth 10 million can be bought with 9 million cash, this visual impact is too great!
I sweated and said, "Master Gu, don't be so exaggerated, just hit my account." β
Gu Ye said: "Our Jianghu gentlemen want to be real, don't you even buy a popsicle when you go to the street with money in your account?" β
I said, "I can't buy popsicles with these two boxes of money." β
Gu Ye smiled: "Order." β
I directly buckled the box: "Order, the money given by Gu Ye will only be more, not less." β
Gu Ye rolled his eyes and said, "Little dog, you don't talk to me, I don't recognize it when I go out of this door." β
I walked out with a suitcase in one hand and said, "If you don't recognize me, I won't bring anything less than one or two million and ask for anything more from you." β
Gu Ye sighed: "Your shameless appearance has the charm of my youth. β
β¦β¦
It's hard for me to go out, where should I go first with the 3 million? Go home? Just say that you picked it up with buns? I guess she probably won't believe it......
Save it? That's even less cost-effective, how convenient is cash, and will the bank target me and sue me for a huge amount of property from unknown sources when I go to withdraw money?
If I think about it, I'd better go back to the bar first, at least there's a sense of security there - now I see that my legs are longer than mine, and I don't know the bottom of my heart, as long as they snatch one of my boxes, I will lose at least 1.5 million, because if I want to catch up with them, I have to put down the box in my hand, and I don't do that if I know the law of the bear breaking the stick.
I didn't take a taxi, but hired a motorcycle, and that's where I'm smart, not only does the motorcycle have a wide view, but no one would ever think that the person sitting on the motorcycle has 3 million cash in his hand.
I arrived at the door of the bar in a panic, and saw that the large vat I had newly bought was surrounded by workers, each holding a paper cup in his hand, and a migrant worker wearing a hard hat crawled on the mouth of the jar, scooping up the water and wine in the vat with his own large enamel jar and pouring them to drink one by one. People coming and going on the road glanced at this place as if they were rare.
I didn't care about it so much at first, and when I entered the bar, I first found the key to the safe where Zhu Gui and he wanted to go to the manager's room, put the money in, and suddenly felt relaxed. The whole bar was filled with a strong aroma of wine, and the Chinese were drunk, Yang Zhi and Zhang Qing couldn't help but go out to the street, and took Li Jingshui and Wei Tiezhu away.
Sun Sixin held his chin and watched the workers drink our self-made water and wine through the glass, and he suddenly said, "It's broken!" Mr. Chen is here. β
"Which Chen ......" I immediately reacted halfway through the question: Chen Kejiao is here.
Chen Kejiao walked out of her small Peugeot, looked around suspiciously, probably thought she had stopped in the wrong place, and when she saw the words "reverse time", she was sure that she had not gone wrong, she saw the big vat at the door at a glance, and walked a few steps to the front of the high heels, and looked up and asked the migrant worker at the mouth of the tank: "Hey, what are you doing?" β
"Drink," said the worker, who leaned down and patted the "free tasting" note posted on the cylinder, "Would you like a drink?" β
At this time, Sun Sixin and I came out, Chen Kejiao pointed to a group of workers, looked at me, was so angry that he couldn't speak, and repeated one after another: "You...... You ......"
"Go in, say it, go in." I gave her a flattering smile, pushed her in, and asked the migrant worker, "Dude, how does it taste?" β
"Delicious! It's sweet and spicy, and it's cold, and it's especially good to drink it. β
Sun Sixin introduced to them: "This is our person in charge. β
The one on the mouth of the cylinder said, "Thank you, brother, will you drink it for nothing in the future?" β
I said, "As long as someone drinks, I'll go inside." β
The man hurriedly said: "Some people drink and some people drink, we are from the construction team on the street next to us, and we will change it after we leave, and drink it in shifts." β
Sun Sixin and I walked inside, and he said, "Brother Qiang, in the future, I am afraid that a group of migrant workers will be affected by the door every day, okay?" β
I said, "What's the solution, we have to let them get rid of this tank first, or it will stink and the impact will be even worse, and it will be a big deal to mix more water for them to drink later." β
Sun Sixin thought for a while and said: "I think it's serious to pour more wine, they are sleepy after drinking, and the foreman won't let them come." I was so angry that I said, "You kid has a lot of bad intentions - hey, why don't you go to accompany you Mr. Chen?" β
Sun Sixin glanced at me and said with a pun: "I came out with you." β
Chen Kejiao no longer has the elegance and arrogance of the past, she sat on the stage with a wine jar around her, looked at this angrily, pushed that, I handed her the small wooden spoon that was ready to scoop the wine: "Try it, this time I really invited you." β
Chen Kejiao knocked off the wooden spoon, pointed to the jar full of pits and valleys, and said a little excitedly: "This is what we said?" β
"Miss Chen, I strictly followed the contract, and I didn't move your layout here, but I just set up a big vat at the door and put some small vat in it." This excuse is something I have come up with a long time ago.
Sun Sixin said cautiously: "Mr. Chen, these are our newly launched five-star gins, which were just tested in the market yesterday and the response was very good......
"Then you're going to make me look like a night market stall?" Chen Kejiao interrupted him and said, "Are you still going to set up a barbecue grill on the dance floor?" β
"That's not going to work." I said with great certainty, "But if you agree, I'm going to tear down the bar and make a long wooden counter with a lattice in the back with our five-star juniper and six-star juniper...... Do you agree? β
Chen Kejiao seemed to be angry, she stood up suddenly, sneered and said: "Okay, I'll wait today to see if your five-star gin is hot or not-Manager Xiao, let's make a bet, the average turnover of this bar is about 10,000, and we'll see in a while, if your five-star gin can sell for 5,000 yuan a night, even if I lose, you will have the final say in the bar in the future." Speaking of which, she suddenly raised her voice and said sharply, "If you lose, I'll take the bar back if I break the contract!" β
I said, "Then how can we be, if we can't sell 5,000, our peace will be automatically dissolved." β
I said with my mouth, but I didn't know the bottom in my heart, although Yang Zhi sold 3,000 yuan in half a barrel of wine yesterday, but it's hard to say about popularity, yesterday people followed in the fun, and a glass of wine sold for more than 100 yuan on average, and it was hype.
But today is today, and even if you felt good about drinking it yesterday, you may not be able to come today. Don't even scare away the guests who come to drink beer when they see the bar, then I'll be completely planted.
Chen Kejiao took herself a drink from the bar and sat at a table with an angry face. I brought two glasses of wine, put one in front of her, and said earnestly: "Xiao Chen, don't be angry with yourself, you will know in a while, we have to have an out, if you lose, it proves that our bar will get better and better, if I lose, we are not sincere and benevolent, why bother the boss with a face." β
Chen Kejiao pushed the glass of wine away from the distance, her anger decreased slightly, and she said calmly: "Mr. Xiao, it seems that you are not the partner I am looking for, except that you are sometimes like a hooligan, you simply have no business acumen, it is all naΓ―ve ideas." β
I wanted to say a few words to her, and I found that she was quite right.
Chen Kejiao was puffing and puffing, and her breasts were also bulging, this woman has always covered herself tightly, but this does not affect her sense of surname at all, especially her breasts, which are always so tall and flat, giving people a little suffocation, as if it is difficult to breathe, I really want to help her untie her clothes and breathe, of course, I don't know if it is out of kindness, anyway, I am not.
"It must have been a bra pad," I thought viciously.
At this time, the migrant foreman at the mouth of the cylinder looked through the glass, knocked on the edge of the cylinder with his enamel cup and shouted: "Hey, I can't reach it." β
I said to Sun Sixin, "You can find him a stick." β
Sun Sixin looked left and right for a long time, dragged down the Indian spear in the background of the stage and ran out, Chen Kejiao glanced at him, endured it and didn't say anything, today I am going to get out, and Xiao Sun will be able to be laid off with honor.
The laborers tied their dicks to their spears, drank for a while and left, leaving the enamel cup as a reward for me.
After the workers left, in addition to their water glasses, they were left with a huge suspense: did the contents of the tank really taste good?
After waiting for about 5 minutes, a rich middle-aged man finally mustered up the courage to climb the wooden ladder, picked up the cup on the edge of the tank, leaned in and scooped a full cup, and then poured it into the paper cup and drank it all.
"That's it." The middle-aged fat man poured another glass as he spoke. Someone else asked: What does it smell like?
"Hey, it's actually cold water." The fat man poured another glass and drank it. There are shrewd people in the crowd who ask: Do you still drink cold water one by one?
"Can you handle my thirst?" Pour, drink. At this time, people reacted and shouted: You go down, it's our turn. The fat man drank two more glasses before burping away.
This time no one is polite, all huddle to the wooden ladder, at this time there is a girl in red standing on the ladder, willow eyebrows and cherry blossoms, people squeezed forward, the girl's slender figure could not help but swing twice on the ladder, almost fell into the tank, I looked straight to the heart, just wanted to go out to the hero to save the beauty, who knew that the girl raised a spear, aimed the tip at the crowd, and said loudly: "Whoever comes again, the old lady gives him a heart-piercing cold!" Everyone was cold, and they retreated backwards, and the girl lifted her spear upside down, drew a small circle around the ladder with a pole, and glared at everyone: "Death to those who enter the circle!" Then he scooped up the wine leisurely, drank a glass and floated away.
After this, the small circle around the ladder remained, and the custom of drinking here was not exceeded, and as for who the girl was, people guessed in every way but finally did not know where to go, so that it later became a beautiful legend......
After half past five, the staff of the bar gradually came, and they squeezed through the crowd before enteringβby this time there were already a few people gathered at the door of the bar.
After 6 o'clock, the people who had come out for a walk after eating were also attracted to them, and they stood in the distance, and here was their conversation: A said, "What's the matter?" B: I don't know, let's see......
Later, more and more people gathered at the door of the bar, but ...... None of them came in, only a few of them were at the front of the tank who knew what they were doing, and the back and across the road were blind dogs watching the stars, just like when I was a child, the sand turned his back and walked forward with tears in his eyes, and then he followed the back of his ass and bowed his head and touched it.
After 7 o'clock, I couldn't sit still, usually the bar should be served, but today, even if they came to drink, they were blocked by the crowd at the outermost level, but they didn't leave, these people came to have fun anyway, and they didn't care about spending a few more minutes to see what was going on.
Chen Kejiao sat there, sneering more and more, there were only a few of us in the huge bar and waiters, and there were three waiters standing stupidly next to the wine jar with wooden spoons, which I deliberately arranged to sell wine. The headlights on the top had been turned on, and the light was shining on a few of us, as if we were filming an absurdist stage play.
Sun Silicon was going to bring a few people in, and I said, "Don't go, I don't believe in this evil!" Then I stood in the doorway and looked at the people outside, and the people outside looked at me, and I crossed my waist and stared at them with serious expressions, and they all looked back at me in silence.
Deadlocked...... Silent...... Even the people drinking around the water tank did not speak, and left silently after a drink, and the bar was surrounded by nearly 1,500 people, and everyone seemed to be inspired and infected by some kind of silence, which was quite a strange scene! Pretty spooky!
At this moment, four vigorous figures struggled to separate the crowd, and one of them pushed the door open, shouting, "Die of thirst, take the wine and drink." It was Zhang Qing, he pushed the door, but he didn't see me standing behind the door gloomily, shooting me out of the way.
Zhang Qing looked left and right, jumped directly to the stage, grabbed a bowl and poured wine and drank, followed by Yang Zhi behind him, and then behind him were Li Jingshui and Wei Tiezhu, who were giggling, and they all picked up the bowl and poured it, no one found that poor me was slapped at Chen Kejiao's feet, and she looked at me with a cold smile.
The four of them rushed around like this, and many people were swept in, and Sun Sixin said in a timely manner: "Welcome everyone to taste our five-star gin......"
A man with glasses asked stupidly, "How much?" He sniffled vigorously as he spoke.
"Five ......"
"Five pieces a bowl!" Without waiting for Sun Sixin to finish talking about the cross in the back, I hurriedly shouted.
"Then I'll taste it...... A bowl. The man with glasses pinched the five dollars, handed it to the waiter who copied the spoon, and after he took a sip, he slapped the fifty dollars on the stage and shouted mercilessly: "Ten more bowls!" The people who were squeezed in with him also gathered around the stage, eager to try.
Once the stalemate was broken, the flow of people from behind continued to pour in.
Today, the 1,500 people surrounding the anti-time bar, they have inherited the Chinese people's longest-standing surname of fun, when the first 500 people rushed into the bar, the back 1,000 people launched an attack similar to the impact of the suicide surname and squeezed in, and when 300 of the first 500 people surrounded the stage, the second 200 people did not bother to go elsewhere at all......
The hall on the first floor, which usually receives 200 people, is now full of more than 1,000 people, they are all crowded under the stage, the people in the front are holding up the money and bowls, and the people in the back are holding the money, Zhang Qing and Yang Zhi They can't get down, the surname Suo holds the jar to pour wine for people, with the jar being sold out, the rich aroma of wine is even more tormenting.
If the first people started because they joined in the fun, then the people who came later were because they smelled the wine. This included a small group of people who tried it yesterday, who smelled the familiar smell and began to work as free propagandists, so that these more than 1,000 people got out of the collective unconscious, and finally understood why they were scraped in: five-star gin!
In this chaos, there are many things that cannot be explained, such as some people gave money but did not drink alcohol, and some did not give money to drink several bowls, and with the joint efforts of Zhu Gui and me, we finally opened the bar into a porridge factory.
The brand of the anti-time bar, the five-star gin, became famous all over the world overnight, but its legendary history is built on a big bag on a man's head.
I looked at the fanatical crowd a little dizzy, and slowly turned my head to find Chen Kejiao, only to see that she finally picked up the glass of wine I poured for her, slowly drank it all, stood up and said something to me:
"The kind of long wooden counter you mentioned, hurry up and do it."
(To be continued)
