Chapter 138: Longquan Hall
2-chome, Chuo-ku, Tokyo, island country, Cocoonyama Ryusendo
"Baga, a bunch of stupid people, asked you to invite someone to come, and actually tossed yourself into the police station, do I still need to steal chickens and dogs on the street and dig out people's wallets?! What do you want? ”
Kogoro, the shopkeeper of the Cocoon Mountain family, grabbed the blue and white porcelain ashtray in front of him and smashed it, and Takagi Dalang, the leader of the four black-clothed people opposite, turned his head, and the ashtray will wipe the head of this guy and smash it directly on the shoulder of Erlang, the tallest person behind him.
Crackling, a good Ming blue and white pen worth about 200,000 yuan was broken to the ground, Erlang's body was stout, although he grinned in pain, he was actually not hurt much, but San Lang and Shiro behind him were startled.
The boss actually dared to flash the ashtray thrown by the boss, and this Nima didn't say hello to the brothers in advance, if Jiro hadn't stepped forward and resisted the boss's trick with his shoulder, our brothers didn't know whether to hide or not!
"I'm really sorry, Jiro and Shiro fell for each other, and they blame me for not disciplining my brothers strictly, but boss, that pair of men and women from the Maple Leaf Country are just a gentleman and his Xiaomi, who have no contact with our Cocoon Mountain Longquantang, I don't know why I offended the boss?"
Dalang grew up as a little friend around Kogoro.,Dalang's father is the follower and partner of the head of the family on the cocoon mountain.,The ancient director of Longquantang has been handed down.,Originally, it wasn't Kogoro's turn to take over the little son.,Kogoro was leading the four brothers of Dalang at the time.,Mixed in the Tokyo Hita Society.,It's very enjoyable to be a violent group.,I don't want to come back to take over.。
However, the cocoon mountain family has a big business, after all, the antique thing is a very abrasive and patient business, the eldest son and second son of the cocoon mountain family are the masters of the political and economic circles, and the eldest daughter and the second daughter have already married and gone with their husbands, and finally after the cocoon mountain Jiro became a local councilor, he could only let Xiao Goro, who had been expelled from the cocoon mountain family, return, and take over the antique business of Longquantang.
"I told you a long time ago, now is not the time to mix with the gang back then, you have to use your brains to do everything, I received news yesterday that there is a kid from the Maple Leaf Country in the Asakusa Market, who helped the Inoue antique store that is not in the stream, and sold 24 pieces of Ming blue and white porcelain in one go, with a total auction price of 39 million yen!"
Xiao Goro's anger has not disappeared, but the pen wash that Ming blue and white porcelain smashed out just now did make him a little distressed, not that he couldn't afford to squander 200,000 yen, the key is that since he did the antique business, he smashed the Ming Dynasty blue and white porcelain on the ground and listened to the sound, this thing is in the eyes of the boss and the second brother, it is an out-and-out loser!
Cocoon Mountain Longquantang's century-old foundation, the loser can be defeated in looking away, defeated in raising a lover and fooling around in a nightclub, but you can't just smash your own antiques to get angry, besides, the four Takagi brothers have been with them for so long, especially Da Lang, who is almost his most trusted henchman, really smashed the flowers on the brain, and it was out of proportion!
"Could it be that the boss wants to ask that kid surnamed Ye from the Maple Leaf Country to help sell antique porcelain? When I handed the invitation to that kid, it didn't seem that the other party took our Cocoon Mountain Longquantang in his eyes at all! Da Lang scratched his head, in front of his own boss, pretending to be stupid is sometimes necessary.
"Count your eyes, what you said is right, that kid surnamed Ye is not as simple as a gentleman from the Maple Leaf Country, I also got news today, yesterday the female shopkeeper Michiko in the pot spent a lot of money to buy a Yuan blue and white porcelain...... It can't be that coincidental, right?! ”
Kogoro took out a cigar from the cigarette case on the table, and here Takagi Dairo had already stepped forward to play the lighter in his hand, lighting a cigar for the boss was the favor and privilege of Daro, Jiro, Saburo and Shiro did not have this qualification and honor.
When the boss and the eldest brother talked, Jiro Saburo and Shiro were human flesh sets without saying a word, since the four brothers followed Kogoro to wash their hands and beg for a living in the antique shop, the days of fighting and killing on the rivers and lakes are getting farther and farther away, and the four brothers are left with such an enjoyable outfit as a black-clad sunglasses bodyguard.
After all, those who can really afford to buy antiques at a high price, either rich or expensive, are the objects of the owner of the antique shop who concentrate on accepting and stammering, and Cocoon Mountain Longquantang is one of the suppliers of the national gift of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government of the island country.
In other words, if you really want to use undignified means, the Cocoon Mountain family will never let the four Takagi brothers under the shopkeeper Kogoro appear, these four men in black and sunglasses are actually the head of the bank pewter gun, the work of the pseudo-black and astringent society.
"Boss, what do you mean, that kid surnamed Ye is an antique master who can turn stones into gold? I don't look like it, the long oily head and noodles are a playboy, but the assistant next to him, his appearance is absolutely superb, and he looks like he has kung fu, maybe it's a female bodyguard! ”
Takagi Dairo's coping strategy in front of Kogoro is often the first half of each reply is serious, and the second half is to pretend to be crazy and stupid to be the boss's praise, of course, it will also be mixed with a little of his own analysis and judgment......
"In short, this surname Ye is not simple, is it a playboy who is a gentleman for the time being, but it has only been two days, and the Inoue family and Huzhongju have gained great benefits, and my Cocoon Mountain Longquantang is the number one status and identity in the industry, how can I turn a blind eye? ! This time I decided to go out in person, and I must invite this Django! ”
Before Kogoro could finish speaking, a tall female secretary in a professional dress knocked on the door and came in, reporting, "Boss, a gentleman surnamed Ye came to visit the boss with a female companion, saying that he was invited by the boss!" ”
"Aha?! Hahaha, okay, I said, Takagi, it seems that this time the four of you are not a trip in vain, wait for the financial class to receive a special incentive allowance of 100,000 yuan, you go down first, don't wear black suits and sunglasses all day in the future, some guests are very uninterested in your black and astringent dress, give you a holiday today, don't show up if you have nothing to do! ”
Kogoro was in the youth of the mixed crime group, and he was known as a Confucian general in the association, and he can also be said to be a character like a polite and smiling tiger, don't look at it, this is serious and has a bachelor's degree from the University of Tokyo, so the Cocoon Mountain family will force him to change his mind and return to society, and take over the ancient director business of Cocoon Mountain Longquan Hall.
When Jiang Yelin came in with Bai Suzhen, Xiao Wulang had already greeted him warmly, to say, the owner or shopkeeper of the antique shop in the island country is very reserved, under normal circumstances, if you sit in the store, those individual customers who have not made an appointment come to the store to see the antiques, the boss will never take the initiative to greet them, only when the guests show interest in a certain precious porcelain, they will come forward to greet them.
Since Kogoro sent the four Takagi brothers to invite Jiang Yelin to meet early in the morning, people came uninvited at this time, but it was not the time for Kogoro to bring the shopkeeper of Longquantang.
"Contemptible Cocoon Mountain Kogoro, thank you Ye Gongzi and Miss Bai for coming, or I really have to come to the door in person to invite, my subordinates are not doing well, please bear with me!"
Kogoro in a suit and leather shoes is in good shape, a person who is almost fifty years old looks like he is about forty, his hair is meticulous, and his gold-rimmed glasses look like a university professor on the bridge of his nose, and he warmly shakes hands with Jiang Yelin.
"Contemptible Ye Django, a Chinese person, naturalized in the Maple Leaf Country for many years, Su loves to collect, this time I came to Tokyo to travel, I want to see what suitable porcelain, today to visit the cocoon mountain shopkeeper, it is also the long-cherished wish of the contemptible people, this is my personal assistant Miss Bai, responsible for taking care of my food, clothing and personal affairs."
After the two sides exchanged pleasantries in the VIP reception room, the guests and hosts sat down separately, and the beautiful and the maids quickly sent tea and snacks at a low price, but Kogoro did not play a tea ceremony all day like Inoue, and the two sides quickly went straight to the point.
"Ye Gongzi, your assistant is as beautiful as a flower, I don't know if you are interested in coming to work in Longquan Hall in Cocoon Mountain, the salary is easy to say, how about an annual salary of 3 million yen?!" Xiao Wulang was amazed by Bai Suzhen's stunning appearance and frosty temperament, and couldn't help but make a joke, in fact, this was his small means to shorten the distance between the two sides.
"Shopkeeper, my assistant is very eye-catching, but it is extremely difficult to serve with a strange temper, and the annual salary of 3 million yen may not be able to impress her heart, Susu, Kogoro-kun's hospitality, what do you think?"
Jiang Yelin smiled, thanked Xiao Wulang for the cigar handed over, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and installed the cigarette holder.
"Thank you for the invitation, but I'm not interested in the antique business, and I don't plan to stay in Tokyo to work......" Bai Suzhen's answer was lukewarm, obviously not taking Kogoro's words seriously.
Then there was a while of nonsense between Jiang Yelin and Kogoro, and finally Kogoro couldn't help but ask,
"Ye Gongzi, I heard that the Inoue family hired you as a consultant to hold a small auction at the Asakusa Market and became famous in one fell swoop, can you do this?"
"Well, this, the news of the cocoon mountain shopkeeper is really well-informed, in fact, it is not a consultant, but I just helped the Inoue family sell a few pieces of porcelain, this antique trade will not shout, it will definitely not work, the porcelain of the Inoue family has good things, but the boss Inoue is too sincere, this business is a little more conservative!"
Jiang Yelin's words made Xiao Golang's eyes light up, and he couldn't help but wave an olive branch straight forward, "In this way, Ye Gongzi and the Inoue family have also cooperated occasionally in their lives, I don't know if Ye Gongzi is interested in becoming a special consultant of Cocoon Mountain Longquantang, with an annual salary of 10 million yen, plus a 5% sales commission, which I can still do!" ”
"It's too early to talk about that...... I came to visit you today, firstly, I received your invitation, and secondly, I wanted to see if Longquantang had any suitable porcelain to buy! "Jiang Yelin is also telling the truth!
