Chapter 151: Fire Immortal Lotus
Under the arrangement of Tianxing Auction House, Chen Fei waited for others in the private room.
After a while, there was a knock on the door.
"Please come in. ”
The door was pushed open from the outside, and a person who surprised Chen Fei came in, and his expression suddenly became a little weird.
Coming in was a young and beautiful girl, about twenty years old, with a slender figure that gave people a sense of weakness, which was completely inconsistent with the knowledgeable scholar Chen Fei imagined.
"Are you translating ancient texts?"
The woman's confidence in speaking is not very strong, as if it is the first time to do such a thing, and she is very restrained.
"Yes. ”
Chen Fei nodded and motioned for the other party to sit down and speak.
"Can you show me?" the woman sat down and asked him directly, without introducing herself.
"What do you call a girl?"
"My name is Xu Qing. The woman didn't expect him to ask.
"Miss Xu, before we start, can you show your strength?"
Chen Fei didn't give her a chance to choose, dipped his hand in the cup, and quickly wrote three words on the table.
Xu Qing, who was sitting opposite, got up and walked over to him to take a look, and did not answer immediately, but stared at these three words with bright eyes.
"This font structure...... At least five hundred years ago, no, no, no, it's going to be longer than that!Can you ask where you saw it from?" Xu Qing was very excited, and finally asked a stupid question.
"No, you can't. Chen Fei decisively refused.
Xu Qing was stunned, immediately realized his stupidity, smiled, and at the same time used his slender fingers to write the answer on the table.
"Very good, then let's talk about the price, the text I want to translate has a total of 831 words, and it needs to be completed in three months. Chen Fei said.
Xu Qing, who had just sat back, seemed to be sitting on a needle, stood up straight in an instant, propped his hand on the table, and said: "Your Excellency!
She didn't wait for Chen Fei to speak, and said: "What I win is the accumulation of experience, I can translate according to the structure and order of these words, and then check the coherence, if you only have eighty words, you can do it in three months." ”
Chen Fei asked, "How long will it take?"
"It takes at least a year to deliver results. ”
"A year?"
Chen Fei shrugged his shoulders and said, "Miss Xu, it seems that we can't continue to cooperate. ”
"You doubt my abilities?"
Xu Qing remembered Chen Fei's reaction when he saw him, came to his senses, his face turned red, and he said loudly: "I can tell you that the translation of ancient characters, Sanzhou can't find a better translation than me!"
"To prove yourself, I'll give you three months, I don't need you to translate it all, but you have to complete it by a third. ”
Chen Fei didn't believe what the other party said, there was really no way, for so many days, the auction house only found a young woman for himself, which shows that there are very few people involved in this area.
"Good. ”
Xu Qing thought about it, she thought that it would be better if it was a quarter, but the man in front of her was obviously not easy to deal with.
However, she suddenly found that Chen Fei's age was only a teenager, and from the moment she entered the door, her words and deeds were not the same.
"Let's talk about the pay. ”
Xu Qing recalled his performance just now and was very ashamed, so he planned to perform well next.
"Say it. "Chen Fei now has enough money for him to splurge.
"I don't want money, I want something. ”
"What?"
"Fire Fairy Lotus. ”
Xu Qing's expression was solemn when he said these three words, and it was obviously not an ordinary thing.
"Miss Xu, you are a strong man. Chen Fei frowned, looking over unhappily.
"I know, but I really need it! It's the only way I can get it. ”
"Do you think I have a way to get it for you?"
Xu Qing glanced at him, quickly lowered his head again, and said, "Aren't you the young master of the Chen family?"
"Huh. ”
Chen Fei smiled angrily, not knowing what to say.
In his days on Medicine Priest Street, he had already become an excellent pharmacist, so he knew about this Fire Immortal Lotus.
The reason why I know is that I chatted with Xiaohu last time and discussed those extremely rare medicinal materials.
Among them, the Fire Fairy Lotus is ranked first.
Money can't buy it, otherwise Chen Fei wouldn't have reacted like this.
However, the value of the Fire Fairy Lotus fluctuates greatly, because it is a healing herb.
Its value depends on the identity of the person who needs it to heal, and if it is a nobleman, it is naturally priceless.
If it were ordinary people, no one would look for it, not even the wildflowers on the roadside.
The reason why it has such a property is because the Fire Fairy Lotus is difficult to maintain, it must be used up at a certain time, and the faster it is, the better the effect.
Chen Fei really wanted to ask the other party, where would he go to get the Fire Fairy Lotus with you.
But looking at Xu Qing's clenched fists and tangled face, it was obvious that she also knew that it was difficult for a strong man, but she still brought it up, indicating that there was really no way.
"Even if I promise you, you won't be able to believe it all, and if you want to meet the Fire Fairy Lotus before you start, it's too late. ”
Chen Fei is not a saint, sympathetic to people he doesn't know, that would exhaust himself to death.
"I'll start translating first, and wait until you exchange it for the Fire Fairy Lotus. Xu Qing knew that it was excessive, so he took a step back.
Chen Fei frowned, looked at him seriously, and said, "What if I don't find the Fire Immortal Lotus by then?"
"Then let's talk about money then. Xu Qing sighed helplessly.
"Miss Xu......"
Chen Fei didn't know what to say, she said such a thing, and she still expected others to sincerely find the Fire Immortal Lotus for her?
Chen Fei didn't want her to figure it out and regret it after she left, so he said this.
"I know. ”
Xu Qing was clear in his heart, nodded, and said: "I thought that you were the young master of the Chen family, and there would definitely be a way, but since your reaction like this shows that it is difficult for me to be strong, then trade it according to normal money." ”
"Are you sure?" Chen Fei asked again.
Xu Qing nodded.
Immediately, the two agreed on how much a word was, and Chen Fei wrote out the ancient characters again, paying attention to the order and strokes according to Xu Qing's requirements.
Although 'Asking the Sky and Three Awakenings' is not visible to ordinary people, Chen Fei still divides the sentence into many paragraphs, and the order is shuffled to keep it secret.
̄ "Miss Xu, I believe you because of the recommendation of Tianxing Auction House, I hope you don't let me down." Chen Fei looked at her with a serious face before handing over the paper full of ancient characters.
Xu Qing was stunned for a moment, nodded, and did not make any more guarantees.
"I will do my best to help you find the Fire Fairy Lotus, don't worry. ”
Before she walked out of the room, Chen Fei suddenly said.
This was something Xu Qing didn't expect, nodded to him gratefully, and left the room.
Next, Chen Fei found someone from Tianxing Auction House and wanted to entrust someone to find the Fire Immortal Lotus.
However, the people at the auction house told him that no one wanted to ask for a commission of 100 million.
"Grab the money. ”
No matter what, Chen Fei still tried his luck at a price of 30 million. For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
