"You haven't found a room yet, have you? Why don't you go to other hotels to ask? When Wuyang saw them, he asked.

The boss said with a face full of old society: "Where do we dare to go, I heard from people that if we don't do well, we will be kidnapped, and it is better to say if we ask for money, but I am afraid that if we ask for money, we will die." ”

Mao Xiaoshan said: "What you hear is nonsense, which country has no kidnapping case? Not necessarily more in Yangon than anywhere else. It's fine. If you go to the opium-growing areas and encounter a war between the government army and the anti-government army, it will not be safe. ”

"You don't have a backache when you stand and talk, try it at your age like us?" Boss Ji said.

"Bosses, a big boss in Myanmar opened a few rooms for me, I have two people here, as well as President Qin, Director Zhou and Teacher Cao, they bring a few people over and don't know what to do, if there are few people coming, you will have two people in one room, and if there are more people, you will have three people in one room, and if there are more people, I will lay the floor with you. You have too much money, and you don't know the suffering of the people, so take this opportunity to experience it. ”

After Wuyang finished speaking, everyone was sad and scattered, and they dragged their luggage to follow, and Boss Qiu said: "I know that Boss Xiaoli will help." ”

The boss said: "Boss Xiaoli, you are really our good friend." ”

"Boss Xiao Li is willing to work with us on the floor, I really didn't say it." Boss Ji, who has a more grumpy temper, also said. A few people went upstairs to Wuyang's room, and Xiao Zhen said, "Bosses, you have a good rest, and I'll go back." Boss Li, give you the car keys, see you again. ”

saw Xiao Zhen gone. Mao Xiaoshan also went back to the room. Everyone was active.

Wuyang asked, "None of you are members of the Jade Society. How is it possible to participate in the Emerald Fair? ”

The boss said, "Our invitations were bought with money. After we returned home from Pingzhou last year, we started to do the event after knowing the matter, and finally the hard work paid off, and we finally bought the invitation. ”

Wuyang smiled: "You don't know how to select wool, what's the use of going in?" ”

Boss Qiu said: "We don't understand, but with your Boss Xiaoli understanding, we will follow you." You'll definitely help this time and let us go home with a full load. ”

"You're too greedy, aren't you? I also returned with a full load, and even I didn't know if I could buy wool. But let's try to satisfy you. Let me tell you, one me, one Teacher Cao, these are the two people you must follow to buy jadeite. Tell me first, how much money did you bring? ”

"Boss Xiaoli, you have never deceived us, I will tell you the family background, each of us is 1 billion euros, and it is said that we will buy it back from here. The price can be doubled, isn't it true? Boss Ji said.

"Doubling is not necessarily. But the price is definitely cheaper than in the country. But it's also up to you how you do it. We now say that there are 200,000 pieces of wool on the public plate, of which 100,000 are marked and 100,000 are dark, according to the jargon of the jade industry: ten bets and nine losses, then there are 20,000 pieces of wool that can be cut out of the jadeite, even if we cut out 10% of the jadeite on the auction, there are still 2,000 pieces. And there will be no more than 100 people like you who buy jadeite for the sake of collecting, and it is you 100 people who can really afford the price. Therefore, you yourself can't raise the price of each other, so that the price of the jadeite you buy will not be very high, otherwise there will be no way to lower it. ”

"Boss Xiaoli, although what you said is very good, it is still very difficult to actually operate. I don't think so, this time you can simply be our gambling stone consultant. You just rely on your feelings, whether it is an open bid or a hidden mark, you can write us the number of the wool and the suggestion of the price, and we will use this as the basis to bid, or bid in the dark bid box. If the bid is won, or if the bid is won, we won't sell it anyway, and when we go back, we ask the auctioneer to estimate the profit, and we will pay you 10%. The boss said.

The boss's suggestion made Wuyang a little tempted, and he was thinking about how to answer with words, but Boss Qiu thought he was unwilling, and hurriedly said: "Boss Xiaoli, or we will add another 5%, what do you think?" ”

"It's not impossible to suggest this, but I have a few conditions, if everyone can accept it, we will make a deal, if you can't accept it, we will be different. My conditions are: 1, I can only provide each of you with a number of 20 pieces of wool and a price proposal, if this number is bought by someone else at a higher price, then I can supplement it for you, anyway, let you buy enough 20 pieces; 2. I can't tell anyone other than you about the number I gave you, let alone transfer the number to others, and even the number can't be taken out for people to see; 3. After you buy 20 pieces of wool, tell me the total price, and verify the profit after you go back, and you will remit the money to a foundation according to the proportion. What I want to explain is: this foundation is to help those poor children who lost their fathers and mothers at a young age, I will let them issue receipts and honorary certificates, this foundation will be approved by the Red Cross Society of China and the Soong Ching Ling Foundation, your donations can be spent before taxes, what do you think? ”

Boss Ji said: "We don't care what foundation or what expenses, as long as your boss Xiaoli approves it, it's your business to do good deeds, and it has nothing to do with us." But Boss Xiaoli, in terms of the amount of wool, can we add 10 pieces, even if there are 10 pieces without jadeite, can we also harvest 20 pieces of jadeite. ”

Boss Qiu also said: "Boss Xiaoli, we all accept the conditions, you still add 10 yuan to us." ”

Wuyang said: "I'm afraid that I won't win when the time comes, if time permits, it's no problem to add 20 yuan." There is a lot of wool, and you always have to touch a few pieces of jadeite. ”

After a few people finished talking about the serious topic, Boss Ji asked, "Who is the person who spoke just now?" ”

Wuyang deliberately said in a weird manner: "He is the company commander of the army, cunning and cunning. The six of you are not enough for him to fight for a minute. ”

"Company commander? He's coming with you to gamble on stones, too? Boss Qiu asked.

"He's going to come with me to gamble on stones? People started smuggling at the age of 8, and they are very familiar with Myanmar, so they still want to come with me? He was on vacation at home. Come and revisit. Doubles as my volunteer bodyguard. ”

"Boss Xiaoli. What the hell do you have to do with it, even such a person can be invited? Boss Ji asked.

"I'm in a male-to-male relationship with him, he's a man, I'm also a man, that's a male-male relationship. Are we taking advantage of the time we have today, go out and go shopping, tomorrow I will start picking up people, there is no time. Wuyang said.

"Boss Xiaoli. I don't think you care about your own safety at all, you don't care about anything at all. The boss said.

"Let me tell you the truth, the six of you are not enough for the Mao Company Commander to fight for one minute, and the Mao Company Commander is not enough for me to fight for one minute. You say, "What am I afraid of?" Whether you go or not, forget if you don't go, I will go with Commander Mao. ”

"Since you have such good martial arts, what are we afraid of? Go, don't go to see what you want. After Boss Ji finished speaking, everyone was willing to go.

Wuyang said: "Wait for the four of you to sit in the Mercedes-Benz of the Mao Company Commander." Two timid people sit in a taxi with me, and make sure you are safe. ”

I got into a taxi. At noon, he realized that the boss of the car was sweating for something, and the air conditioner in the car couldn't be turned on at all, and in less than 10 minutes, the clothes were stained on their bodies.

Mao Lian Chang drove a gallop to lead the way in front, and soon saw the gourd-shaped Shwedagon Pagoda in the distance. Mercedes stopped in front of them, got off the taxi at noon and saw a lot of tourists touring around the Golden Tower. The resplendent Shwedagon Pagoda gives people a sense of shock, and Wuyang marvels at the ingenuity of human beings from the depths of his heart. He had been to Yueyang Tower, Tengwang Pavilion and other places of interest in his country, and the shock in his heart was also very strong at that time, but it could not be compared with now.

"This is the most famous pagoda in Myanmar, the Shwedagon Pagoda." Mao Xiaoshan parked the car and walked over to say. "I've been to see this pagoda since I was very young, but I didn't know much about it. Before coming out this time, I deliberately browsed the Internet and found that this golden pagoda is a treasure of oriental art along with the Borobudur Pagoda in Indonesia and Angkor Wat in Cambodia. It is recognized by the World Heritage Protection Organization and is a symbol of Myanmar. Shall we go in and see. ”

Boss Qiu took the lead in expressing his approval of going in. Wuyang knew in his heart that Boss Qiu must be the leader in their group, and the others only hated Boss Zheng, Boss Qiu was in favor of entering, and others would definitely not object.

Sure enough, the boss took the initiative to buy the ticket. Several people passed by the Sphinx and entered the door. Wuyang thought to himself, there is a sphinx in Egypt, there is a sphinx here, and Mao Xiaoshan said that it was more than 2,500 years ago, Wuyang wondered if it was a group of aliens who came to the earth at that time and shaped these statues respectively.

Entering the door, I saw the base of the Shwedagon Pagoda, turned around and saw the 64 small pagodas and 4 middle pagodas outside, and also saw some barefoot monks walking slowly, and saw tourists, sometimes standing with one palm in their right hands, sometimes nodding slightly to tourists with both hands together.

The rules left by the ancestors of the Li family are to respect heaven and earth, ghosts and gods, and ancestors, enter the temple when you see it, and worship when you see a bodhisattva, but you can't believe it. Therefore, after the afternoon sun worships religiously, there is no interest. Boss Qiu and the others went in to browse, and Wuyang and Company Commander Mao were waiting for them at the door.

Out of the door, a group of people went to the market. Boss Qiu seemed to have forgotten about their own safety, and Wuyang and Mao Xiaoshan had no choice but to follow them and act as guards with them. They seem to be interested in everything, and they want to buy everything they see. Mao Xiaoshan talked a few times, saying that these are handicrafts and are available everywhere in the country, but they didn't listen at all, so Wuyang quietly told him: Let them buy them, it's a big deal for us to be porters.

Soon, it was unfortunately true. First of all, the hands of the two of them, followed by the shoulders, followed by the necks, and everywhere hung all kinds of jewels and ivory carvings. Seeing them sweating profusely, Boss Qiu turned around and smiled apologetically.

Wuyang's eyes were suddenly attracted by the root carvings and wood carvings that were full of houses and stalls, so he stopped watching. The stall owner, a middle-aged man in his 40s, had not shouted, and when he saw them staying in front of his stall, he said: "Two bosses, please take a closer look, most of these things are carved by myself, and the roots of the trees are from all over the world." It's the small pieces here, and the big ones are in my house. ”

Wuyang said: "Boss, I especially like wood carving, root carving these handicrafts, may I ask you here, what is the best wood?" ”

"The wood I know, there are safflower pear, small leaf red sandalwood, etc., these are the best, there are a few pieces sent by others to sell, and there are also a few large pieces at home that are sold by others, and I don't know what wood. Boss if interested. Just check it out. The stall owner said. handed over a small cardboard box, and Wuyang and Mao Xiaoshan packed the handicrafts full of handicrafts into the cardboard box. , concentrate on looking at wood carving and root carving.

I took a wood carving with the same attributes as myself, a black mouse, and looked at it carefully, the shape of the mouse was very simple, and the appearance was already polished very smooth, and I put the mouse in front of the nose and smelled it vigorously. I don't smell anything at all. Another little monkey was taken and the same was the case.

Wuyang suddenly thought, can his true qi penetrate into the wood carving? As soon as he thought of it, he ran the true qi from his fingers into the inside of the woodcarved monkey, and then he smelled a strong sandalwood fragrance.

Wuyang had never seen sandalwood, but had only smelled it in the toilets of some hotels. However, it is known that those are only chemically synthesized. Now you can smell it from the inside of the wood carving, but you can't smell it outside, so it shouldn't be fake.

"Boss, are you also carving these little monkey and puppy handicrafts yourself?"

The stall owner said, "Don't hide it from the boss." One of my neighbors asked me to bring these things this morning. Their family has been neighbors with me for decades and has recently made a fortune. The family bought a villa and was ready to move, so they disposed of these useless things. These things are a set of 12 zodiac animals, I know what tigers, dragons and other good sells, I didn't put them out, the boss is not interested, I will take them all. ”

"Please take it out. Boss, you speak Chinese so well, are you an overseas Chinese? Mao Xiaoshan asked.

"yes, from the forties of the last century." The stall owner said.

"That's when I came from my house." Mao Xiaoshan said.

As soon as the stall owner heard this, he immediately started talking to Mao Xiaoshan in Burmese, and his face was very affectionate. While also taking out the wood carving. Wuyang didn't understand their words, so he carefully examined the wood carving, sure enough, the 12 zodiac signs were carved by a person, and there were several animals that also exuded a faint fragrance, which was the same as the fragrance that was stimulated by the true qi just now, and it was estimated that the family did not have this attribute, so there was no reason for stroking and playing.

"Boss, how much do these things cost?" Wuyang asked, seeing Boss Qiu and them gradually walking away, he was a little anxious, so he interrupted their conversation.

"If you buy them all at once, it's $200 a piece, and if you buy them individually, it's $500 a piece." The stall owner said.

Wuyang's backpack never left his body, and he immediately took out a stack of dollars from his backpack and counted 24 to the stall owner. "Help me pack it, and it's better to get a small cardboard box to pack it too."

"Xiao Li, we are not in a hurry. Boss Qiu, they have been the boss for a long time, but they only know that Lu Dao is self-centered, and when they find out that we are not together, they will come back to us. Mao Xiaoshan said.

"But we promised to protect them, and it's not good to break their promises."

"It's okay, there's no problem in Yangon, it's good for them to scare themselves." Mao Xiaoshan said with a smile.

"Boss, I have some wood carvings of similar material here, are you interested in taking a look?" The stall owner asked.

"Where, take it out and see." Wuyang said.

"At the back where I stayed. In the morning, it was carried in by several people, and I couldn't move it alone. Boss, are you going to come in with me and have a look? ”

Wuyang handed over the backpack to Mao Xiaoshan, and he went into the room with the stall owner. Sure enough, there are 8 or 9 pieces of wood carvings piled up in a mess, there are old birthday stars, Tie Guan Li, Lu Dongbin, Maitreya Buddha, etc., the height is about 1 meter high, both hands tried it, and the weight is more than 100 catties. Wuyang lost a small amount of true qi into it, and there was still a sandalwood fragrance.

"Boss, how much do these things cost?" Wuyang asked.

"These things are very old, my neighbors and ancestors are not willing to throw them away, we don't understand it now, but each cannot be less than 20,000 US dollars." The stall owner said.

Wuyang raised his legs and came out. I know in my heart that the price of these things is worth this per kilogram, but if you can spend less, you should spend as little as possible.

"Boss, don't worry, let's talk again?" The stall owner said.

Wuyang said: "You don't know what kind of material these things are made of, first of all, the price is not easy to determine, besides, such a big thing, we tourists buy it is not easy to take away, especially if the government of the Union of Myanmar determines that they are cultural relics, then not only spend money in vain, but also may be in prison, you can't tell people, you don't know what Lu Dao is." ”

"Boss, you rich people must have a way to transport it back, aren't all missiles smuggled now? You make an offer, and we'll talk. The stall owner said.

"For $5,000 each, I'll buy them all." Wuyang said.

The stall owner sells it for others, and the owner offers $5,000, so he has no profit. "Boss, my neighbor still has 9 pieces, a total of 18 pieces, let's press 10,000 US dollars for 1 piece."

In the end, the two bargained and negotiated $8,000 a piece. The stall owner called his neighbor to send the other 9 pieces, and Wuyang also called Xiao Zhen to send a large truck to help him transport the wood carvings.

Boss Qiu walked and walked, and the two of them disappeared from Wuyang, and they searched back and forth in the business area several times, but they didn't find it. So that's how it is to panic, I don't even remember to call someone.

Wuyang negotiated the price, made a phone call, and was still worried about them in his heart, and when he came out, the boss was running in front of him like a lost dog, so he shouted: "The boss, what are you running?" ”

The boss immediately seemed to see a savior, "My boss Li, my Uncle Li, where did you go?" ”

Wuyang smiled: "I'm going to sell you, and I haven't received the money yet, so I'll let you run around freely first." Call them and call them. After speaking, he gave him the cardboard box containing their belongings, and tied the cardboard box containing the 12 zodiac wood carvings with tape. The boss took out a wood carving before Wuyang was tied up, and Wuyang snatched it over, "Hurry up and call." ”

The boss called, and five people came over one after another. Wuyang pulled them aside and whispered, "I bought some wood carvings here, and some will be sent over later." You can't fight with me, whoever fights with me is in a hurry. ”

"Boss Xiao Li, you are breaking the rules of this industry, there are things that should be obtained by the highest price, you can't monopolize it. I see that your object just now seems to be something from the Ming Dynasty, and it is sandalwood, which is worth a lot of money. ”

"It's all mine now, so you don't have to worry about it. If you fight with me, Jade will buy it yourself, I am not threatening you, I promise to do what I say. "Wuyang has not paid for 18 things, and he is really afraid that the boss will fight. That's what the boss is doing in this business, and nothing good can escape his eyes at all.

"Alright, stingy, I'm just talking. You bought it as an ornament at home, I just wanted to make money, you helped me buy wool to make money, I don't fight with you for these things. It's always okay to help you palm your eyes, right? The boss said.

"The palm eye is okay, you can only see here, you can't say it, except for the fake one, of course." (To be continued......)
