Chapter 413: New Year's Wealth
The owner of the photo studio thought that the so-called "heavy reward" was in vain, but it was not bad to get a thousand yuan after a few moves, so he hummed a little song and went back to the store.
The middle-aged man left the photo studio and did not go to Gu's house immediately, but sat in the car and used his mobile phone to contact people: "...... That's right, Kyoto Gu family. This trip to Kyoto was not in vain, at least I found the stupid bird, but I don't know if that thing was excreted with bird droppings, and I will talk about it when I bring it back and dissect it, but I hope that the stone will grow in its body......
That's impossible! At that time, I watched the stupid bird swallow it with my own eyes, but it was so troubled by the Chinese special police, and the stupid bird actually took advantage of the chaos to steal away. When I get it back, see if I don't torture it......
Isn't! The last time the heavy blow caused our ten years of hard work in vain, and there is no living body left that we have finally accumulated......
Well, then you continue to stare at Huaguo's side, and I'll go back after I'm done here...... By the way, Ah Chang, you don't have to worry about it, he was arrested by the Huaguo police, and it also saved us from cleaning up the portal...... It is said that he sold illegal drugs in private, and was also involved in a murder case, which is not the death penalty but also life imprisonment, so there is no need to spend energy on him. Laugh at! People who don't have the ability are useless anywhere, and they want to make a fortune sitting on the ground and dreaming by stealing 'one second down'! ……”
The middle-aged man chattered, hung up the phone and drove to the vicinity of Gu's house, and stayed in the Jiasheng Hotel, which is located in the southwest across the street from Gu's house. The hotel has a maximum of 13 floors, which can be said to be the tallest luxury hotel in the vicinity.
The man threw out a gold card and asked for a suite on the thirteenth floor facing the east. The kind with floor-to-ceiling windows. Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, he took out a high-powered telescope, and through the telescope, he could see the whole picture of the Gu family's courtyard. But after observing for several days, there was no trace of the stupid bird.
Although the bird prefers hot and humid environments. But no matter how cold it is, you always have to go outside to get fresh air throughout the day, otherwise you will easily get sick. Judging from the photos, the stupid bird looks good, and is obviously fatter than four years ago, which shows that its small life is very good.
So he guessed that the Gu family should have a temperature-controlled birdcage. But he watched through the binoculars for so many days, but he didn't see the Gu family carrying the birdcage out for a walk. What went wrong? Could it be that the photo studio owner was lying to him? That bird doesn't belong to the Gu family at all?
The middle-aged man grimaced, once again looking through the high-powered telescope. He stared at the Gu family and looked at it again and again, but still didn't see any trace of the stupid bird, and threw away the binoculars in frustration, wrapped himself in a coat, and put on sunglasses. Holding back his anger, he went to the photo studio to find the greedy boss and ask for an explanation.
The owner of the photo studio thought that the other party had reversed course and wanted to get the 1,000 yuan back. insisted that the bird belonged to the Gu family, and if I didn't believe it, I came back to wash the photos and asked the Gu family.
Seeing that he couldn't ask for any useful information, the middle-aged man had to loosen his collar, squint at him through his sunglasses, and said word by word: "Okay, when the Gu family comes to wash the photos again, you can ask me clearly." Is the bird in the Gu family, if not. Whose hands are it all about. If you do this, whether you can find my bird or not, I will give you 10,000 yuan. ”
The owner of the photo studio nodded vigorously and said, "Okay, good", and received 10,000 yuan in a few words, so the fool didn't do it.
Only then did the middle-aged man let him go and returned to the hotel along the same road.
It is said that He Wei was indeed at the Gu family that day, how could the middle-aged man not see her carrying a birdcage in and out?
Coincidentally, when this person was checking in in the hotel lobby, Gu Xu came back and said that he had opened a new private restaurant not far from Huada. The room invited Prince Xu, Luo Zhi and He Xidong, and this room picked up four women and went out to a private restaurant for dinner.
The small buns are too small and the weather is cold, so I don't take them out of the house, and leave them at home for the nanny to take care of.
What? Afraid of a babysitter? Gu's father and mother, who love their grandson very much, are not decorations.
He Xidong saw Prince Xu and Luo Zhi on the day when his sister and Lu Yanjin and Tang Baoyin married their sisters, although this was the second time they met, but with his sister, he, a good brother of twenty-four filial piety, concentrated on picking vegetables for his sister, and occasionally chatted with Gu Xu next to him, but he didn't feel too restrained.
After lunch, Prince Xu asked them if they were interested in jade, saying that his cousin's jade shop was celebrating its anniversary in the past few days, and it was better to go to the antique street in the afternoon.
Gu Xu and the others asked a few young people to go shopping together, and he and his wife didn't mix. As soon as the little bun woke up, he wanted to drink milk. Second, the two of them are not as interested in jade as embroidery, and instead of appreciating those cold stones, it is better to play kissing at home.
"Isn't Fuyuko more interested in this? Take your sister to go shopping, with Brother Xuan and Ah Zhi here, don't be afraid of the store slandering you. Call me when you're almost done, I'll pick you up and take you home for dinner......"
"What's the matter, since you went, you must have eaten on the antique street, my cousin's store is next door to a restaurant, the reputation is very good, you two are okay to come over." If you can't bear the xiaolongbao, then bring it. Anyway, it's your own car in and out, what are you afraid of. Prince Xu lazily interrupted Gu Xu's words.
Gu Xu shook his head: "Xiaolongbao is still forgotten, it's freezing this day, and he's a little kid who doesn't understand anything, and he sleeps when he comes out, so take him out when the weather is warm." As for me and Lele, depending on the situation, if my parents go out, we won't come out. You guys have a lot of fun, and you can get in touch anytime. ”
The two groups then parted ways at the door of the private restaurant.
Prince Xu's cousin's jade shop anniversary celebration will launch a batch of all-gambling wool every day in the past few days, some cheap and some expensive. The stone dissolving machine is placed on the steps next to the store, and the on-site calcite always attracts many tourists to stop and watch. If it is green, the scene will be boiling, and more or less it will always prompt some tourists with the mentality of picking up leaks to enter the store to pick up wool.
As long as you enter the store, it is a potential customer, and if the sales promotion is done well, the potential customer is more likely to convert into a buyer. Therefore, many jade shops will always launch similar activities on anniversaries, New Year's Day and other festivals, even if they do not sell wool themselves. In the final analysis, it is a means of publicity and marketing.
As for the odds of the wool opening jadeite. That's hard to say. If you're lucky, you'll be able to keep coming out of the green. Bad luck, sometimes it takes half a day to make a stroke. It's still a dry bean seed. There are even shaved heads, sold wool, and a piece of emerald is not included.
"Cousin." Prince Xu smiled and called out to the young man standing in front of the stone dissolving machine, "How is the anniversary business?" I've brought your brother and sister to cheer you on. ”
"Cousin." Lu Yan glanced at her fiancé, but she still stepped forward to greet her with dignity.
"Yo, rare guest, it's rare to come to see me collectively." Prince Xu's cousin saw that it was them. Hurry over and say hello.
Luo Zhi and Tang Baoyin are very familiar with him, but it is the first time he has seen the two brothers and sisters of He Xidong, and they were introduced by Prince Xu. Nodding politely, he invited them in to sit down.
"It's noisy outside, and you have to shout when you say something, but it's still quiet inside...... I don't care if the business is good or not. But it's quite popular. As soon as it opened in the morning, someone solved a piece of water with a good head of full green, and the two calcifiers have not stopped until now. Didn't a buyer just pick up a piece of material weighing a few tons, and asked the master to solve it, I saw that there was a play, so I squatted aside to join in the fun...... You came just in time, this batch of materials is really good, and I will pick a few pieces in a while, which is a New Year's gift from me. ”
"Thank you, cousin. Then we're welcome. Prince Xu rubbed his hands. After a few sips of tea, I had to pull my fiancée to pick wool. Because he is in a military and political family. You can't just have fun. Even if you are interested in jade, the road ahead will not be this one. So I can only take advantage of my spare time to come to my cousin's place to satisfy my hunger.
"There are a lot of people outside, so you can go directly to the warehouse to pick it up. Let Lao Zhang lead you there, and find Lao Zhang if you want any tools. I'll have to go outside and watch, and if it's really green, it's going to have to be won at a fair price. Fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields. ”
Prince Xu's cousin led the group to the wool warehouse, called his assistant Lao Zhang to accompany him, left a sentence of "good luck to you", and hurried outside. I'm thinking about that big piece of material.
Prince Xu was not used to it, turned around and waved his hand at everyone: "I said that it was a New Year's gift, everyone just picked, and whoever you pick is whoever." Why don't we compare whose luck is it? ”
He Wei originally wanted to find an opportunity to take out the gourd-shaped wool to solve it, but she didn't expect Prince Xu to take them to the antique street wool, so she asked the system to emit a magnetic field to see if there was any emerald material in the warehouse. It's best to pick a piece that is not eye-catching, and solve it on the spot, which can not only make some extra money, but also add some wealth to Prince Xu's cousin's jade shop.
Roll up your sleeves and do what you say!
Although He Xidong didn't know much about gambling stones, treasure appreciation was his hobby, and he chatted and chatted with Prince Xu. Suddenly, it was like seeing each other late, and the two brothers hooked their shoulders well. Still lying in front of a large piece of material, one held a flashlight to shine, and the other counted the locks on his head and whispered something.
Seeing this, the corners of the others' mouths twitched. Having a hand in appreciating treasures and having a strong interest in jade does not mean that gambling on stones can hit great luck!
These two don't think that gambling stones are equal to one plus one, right? ――How many people are wealthy?
It is estimated that among all the people, Luo Zhi is the most decent one to pick wool. Anyway, Lu Yanjin and Tang Baoyin don't understand it at all. The rest of He Wei is also walking and stopping, touching and taking a look at them one by one, just like picking out the gadgets of interest in the night market.
The accompanying old master Zhang couldn't stand it anymore, and stood aside to give some advice, but was disgusted by Prince Xu, "You are always blocking my light", and he was completely speechless to the relatives of these bosses. Simply help take care of the birdcage brought by He Wei, whistle with his mouth, stand at the door and tease the birds, look up to the yard outside the warehouse, or those enthusiastic tourists picking wool is more interesting.
"Weiwei, how do I think this one you picked looks so much like a pumpkin." Tang Baoyin looked at a few pieces of the stone, and couldn't see the difference between this one and that one at all. On the contrary, he made his back ache. Straightened up, walked around the old waist, and saw He Wei holding a small pumpkin-shaped stone and looking over and over, so he leaned over and asked curiously.
"I won't pick it, I think this stone looks like a pumpkin, maybe it can hit the luck." He Wei stuck out her tongue and smiled coquettishly. He handed the stone to Tang Baoyin for study, turned around and continued to pick up leaks in the wool pile.
"That's right!" Tang Baoyin's eyes lit up, "Or Weiwei is smart, she doesn't understand left and right, why don't you pick a piece that is pleasing to the eye?" ”
So, she also began to pick pumpkins, winter melons, and nest melons...... In the end, he held a wool with a big head and a small tail and asked everyone: "Do you think it looks like a round eggplant?" Or is it more like a mallet? ”
The crowd was collectively speechless.
In short, Tang Baoyin pulled all the comparable shape stones out of the wool pile one by one.
Lu Yanjin watched her pick at first, but when she saw that she was unconsciously interested, she also picked up.
After sensing it, the system found that the wool shaped like various melons, fruits and vegetables picked out by Tang Baoyin and Lu Yanjin was not low. Three of the eight pieces had jadeite. As for the texture, probably one piece is better, one piece is average, and one piece is slightly worse. The good one is similar to the pumpkin material He Wei picked.
When everyone had almost picked up, and the sun was almost dusk, Prince Xu announced the end. Lao Zhang called two guys from the front to help carry it. Looking at the wool picked out by the three women, I couldn't help but twitch the corners of my mouth.
Not to mention, these wool materials are scattered in the wool pile and I don't feel it, but I find it after picking it out separately, which is really quite vivid. Do you dare to say that this piece doesn't look like a pumpkin? That doesn't look like an eggplant? And the melon-shaped, radish-shaped...... If you don't know that this is jadeite wool, I'm afraid you will think that it is a strange stone deliberately carved into vegetables and fruits.
These wool materials are sold in kilograms, and the external price is 888 yuan/kg. It was originally launched for the store celebration, and it was auspicious, you have to say a thousand yuan a kilogram, as long as you can open jadeite, there will be an endless stream of tourists to patronize.
Prince Xu's cousin asked them to pick a few more pieces, "New Year's gifts, Sensei will save me money." ”
"Who saved my cousin money? No, although Dongzi and I picked a piece together, the weight is heavy, and we can catch up with the total amount of Xiao Jin's picks. Hurry up, untie it and show it to me, if it's green, I'll wrap it for dinner today, and you can eat whatever you want. ”
"The most expensive private restaurant is fine?" Tang Baoyin asked casually.
"Okay-" Prince Xu replied with a long smile.
Prince Xu's cousin instructed his men to load the wool he picked up on the calciner, and scolded with a smile: "If you can get green, you want to send us away for dinner?" After eating, you have to go to the clubhouse to have some fun! ”
Prince Xu coughed and glanced at his fiancée with an embarrassed expression.
The cousin's "fun", can he still not know the famous hall. Even Tang Baoyin understood, glaring at him and Luo Zhi, but his fiancée was still talking to He Wei with a smile, which made him breathe a sigh of relief at the same time, but he couldn't help but feel a little lost. It is said that women are easily jealous, but she reacts like this, does she not understand or does she not care? (To be continued.) )
PS: Happy Chinese New Year's Eve! I was too tired last night, and I gave myself a day off, but in fact, I didn't have a holiday, because it was eight o'clock in the evening when I arrived at the hotel, and I washed it and ate something, and then I started to code words. As the title suggests, I wish you all good luck and fortune in the Year of the Monkey!
