Chapter 4 Mystery Buyers
Tofu scratched his head and said, "It seems that the kid surnamed Shi didn't lie to us, the price he gave is really the highest, or let's sell it to him." ”
I had calmed down at this moment, and I sensed something wrong in my heart, and said: "You are stupid, people die for money, birds die for food, how can anyone who does business receive things at a loss, if this thing is really only worth 200,000, why is he willing to pay 500,000?" ”
Tofu blinked and said, "yes, why is that?" ”
I was so amused by him that I said, "Fix your brains, they're all rusty." We walked so many just now, but the origin of this brand, they couldn't tell it clearly, so the price was very low, but the stone pimple told the origin of the god card. When I mentioned this, Tofu immediately understood, slapped his thigh, and said, "That kid has a problem!" So many connoisseurs don't know the origin of this thing, how can he see it at a glance! ”
That's right, that's the crux of the matter.
I immediately patted Tofu on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, go to Shijulaishe." ”
After we tossed this time, we had already reached the west slope of the sunset, and after going to Jushi Laishe, we saw Shi Lump sitting on the rattan chair at the door, touching his belly and sighing. As soon as he saw me and Tofu, he immediately jumped up, smiling, and teasing, and said, "Yo, the two of you are back, have you made a move?" ”
He asked knowingly, tofu is the master of a little fire, and immediately tugged at the collar of the stone pimple, and said, "Boy, don't be complacent, don't be crooked with Grandpa Dou here." Don't expose your tricks, you really think that everyone else is a fool, hurry up and recruit from the truth, what do you want to do with this thing. ”
I originally wanted to interrogate slowly, but I didn't know that the tofu was so urgent, and I said it all in one breath, but I didn't smile, stared at the two of us, and said: "Since I am willing to accept it, naturally someone is willing to buy it, antique trading, buying and selling without asking about identity, I can't sue you." The two of them said if they wanted to sell it. ”
He looked like he was nine out of ten.
Also, running all over the entire Pan Jiayuan, the price here is the highest, and it has tripled, under normal circumstances, if you don't sell it to him, who will you sell it to? The boy ate the two of us, so he slapped Tofu's hand away, sat back on the wicker chair, and said, "If you don't have a good discussion, then I'll wait." "This person doesn't eat hard and soft, and the tofu is gone, looking at me, with a helpless face.
I looked at the triumphant appearance of the stone pimple and became angry, and said in my heart that I am famous for the first generation, can I still pretend to be a grandson for you for this 500,000 yuan? Lao Tzu is not poor and can't afford to eat, so I will be an uncle.
Immediately waved his hand and said to Tofu: "Move the place, let's sell the wrench and Ruyi, and the god card will be kept as a souvenir, and we will not be short of this money." I heard that there is a well-known barbecue restaurant in Panjiayuan, and the baked things are called fragrant, let's hurry up, order an oven, have a little wine, have a good meal, and go. ”
The stone pimple heard me say that he was eating, and his stomach suddenly gurgled, and when he saw that I and Tofu were leaving, he was also anxious, and hurriedly said: "Ouch, I Shi Leiluo has lived for most of my life, and it is the first time I have met you so soft and hard that you don't eat, and you don't earn money in front of you, can I take it?" I'm here to make amends to the two, I don't want the wrench and Ruyi, but the god card, I really collect it here, I don't hide it, there is a big customer waiting behind it. ”
When I saw that the grandson was finally willing to tell the truth, I asked, "Which big customer?" ”
Shi Pimple looked left and right and said, "There are many people in this place, and it is inconvenient to speak. Seeing that it was already dark and it was time for dinner, why don't we go to the barbecue restaurant you said and talk while eating. This kid screamed while talking about his stomach, touched his belly and snorted, and said: "It's not easy to make a living, I usually don't have dinner until eight o'clock, and I make do with steamed buns and pickles, and there is a way to ......."
I quickly interrupted him and motioned for him to lead the way. What steamed buns are pickles, there is a way to be the gold of troubled times, antiques of prosperous times, and those who do antiques in this industry, if you don't have a net worth of hundreds of thousands of dollars, people don't treat you as a peer.
Crying poor with me, he is definitely the wrong person to cry.
Not long after, the three of us arrived at the barbecue restaurant, the decoration is very magnificent, there are many people, the stone pimple waved his hand, asked for a first-class private room, quiet, the three of us sat down to order, the waiter put on the baking pot, dipping sauce, cups, saucers and bowls and retreated. The taste of this shop is good, I and tofu have been tossing for a day, I wanted to talk while eating, but I can't stop eating, the three of them blow the air conditioner to drink and eat meat, not to mention how enjoyable.
Chinese people like to eat first when they do everything, whether they recognize each other or not, whether they have hatred or not, sit down at the dinner table, eat three glasses of wine, and the relationship immediately becomes intimate. I was also dazzled by the drink, cheered up, and asked the stone pimple: "It's time to get down to business, right?" The stone pimple was drunk, his tongue was big, he patted Tofu's shoulder hard, and said: "Xiao Dou, Dou Ye, Brother Dou, you are my own brother, we are late to see each other...... Oh, Brother Chen, you ask the buyer? That's a long story. ”
At the end of the meal, the three of them were already brothers, and the stone pimple was no longer full of nonsense, wiped his mouth, burped and drank tea, and then looked at me and Tofu, with a stern expression, the pimple on his face was as if he was glowing red, cleared his throat, and said: "This matter has a lot of origin." To tell the truth, the wrenches and jade ruyi in the hands of the two are unpopular, not a good thing, and the really good one is the 'Black Wood Square Earrings God Card'. This thing, I bet, the entire Pan family, no one knows except me. The specific origin of this matter has to start from two years ago. ”
Since Shi Pimple's father's generation, he began to take root and settle in Panjiayuan, don't look at the small storefront, in fact, the whole world is in the dark. Shilai Jushe does not do ordinary people's business, it has its own set of relationship networks, and the people who come and go are all old customers. Most of the time, the stone pimple is set up on the stall with some fakes, which looks no different from ordinary vendors, in fact, it is just to let people 'see Ming'er'.
The so-called seeing Ming'er is also looking at the code. When he set up his stall, a white cloth folded into a triangle would be placed on the stall, and at first glance ordinary people thought it was a rag, but in fact it was a bright one. The white cloth is folded into a triangle to symbolize the filial piety of a person after death, which means to receive the things of the dead. Most of the people who can see the way are people in the industry, and when they see Ming'er with stone bumps, they will naturally contact him.
One day two years ago, a strange patron approached the stone pimple.
How strange is this patron?
He's a masked man.
If this thing is put in a TV series, it is not unusual at all, but in modern times, it is very strange, who is stunned on the street, if you see a person with a covered face, it is estimated that you will be surprised, and the return rate is definitely 100%.
The man went into the stone lump shop and took out a piece of A4 paper, on which he sketched a pattern in pencil, an animal pattern. It looks like a fox, but it has multiple tails and claws, and its eyes are a triple ring, which looks like it has three pupils. With such a strange shape, the stone pimple had never been seen before, so I asked the man for any advice.
The man didn't leave his name, but only asked him if he had ever seen anything with this pattern, and when he saw that he was not here to do business, his attitude cooled down, and he said that he had not seen it. The man waited a little longer, then left the drawing, and said, "Whatever you come across with this pattern, you will accept it all, and pay the bill three times the amount of money received." "In other words, if my 'Shenmu Square Earrings Divine Card' sells for 500,000 yuan, then after the matter is completed, that person will buy it from the stone pimple for a price of 1.5 million.
Of course, the stone pimple has been lowering the price before, probably because he wants to buy it low, and then report it at a high price to the person who receives the goods.
How can there be such a good thing in the sky, at first Shi Pimple was suspicious, but when the man removed the corner of the mask, Shi Pimple saw his face clearly, and felt that the God of Wealth was coming.
What does this man's face look like? Can make the stone pimple so shocked?
Speaking of this matter, we have to mention the three major warlords in the old Beijing inverted fighting circle.
Why is it called a warlord? Because it is said that these three families were all born as warlords. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, when the warlords were separating, those who had some power and financial resources rose up one after another to form their own armies. Warlords, you beat me today, and I will kill you tomorrow, in short, the big fish eat the small fish, and the small fish eat the shrimp.
Among them, there were three warlord forces, all of which were based in the capital at that time, and later fought elsewhere in order to develop their power. In this world, the most expensive thing is not to eat, drink, and visit the kiln, but to raise the army. No matter how great the financial resources are, they can't support the consumption of an army day after day. What to do? Dig up the grave.
At that time, the situation was chaotic, although these three families did not know each other, they all chose to learn from Cao Cao and Xiang Yu, and dig graves to replenish military salaries.
In fact, there were many warlords in this part of the north at that time, but because the three of them took a dark path, they survived to the end and formed three major warlord factions. Later, it was subordinated to the Beiyang warlords, and when the Beiyang warlords collapsed, Yuan Shikai lost power, and these three families also withered, but the business of tomb robbery was retained, and today, it is already the three underground tyrants in the north.
These three are Duan, Guo, and Yuan.
Among them, the people of the Duan family, the base camp has moved overseas, and they have gone abroad to engage in the return of cultural relics.
The Guo family will not show it for the time being, because they are not in charge, they have given birth to five women in a row, and they have not yet cultivated a successor, and the five eldest ladies are all delicate girls, where are they willing to deal with the dead, flying around Paris and New York all day long, dating rich sons from all walks of life, forgetting all about their old business, and seeing that day by day is not as good as day by day.
