Chapter 1375: A Fake Pocket Watch

It's a lot of fun to talk to Fat Ding on the phone, there are some English words mixed in Meow Meow, and Han Xuan can actually hear that it is complaining that the director is too harsh...... Even scolded Bichi a few times, but she didn't have to guess to know that only the director in the crew would make her so angry, and the other crew members were very good to her.

After the New Year, Fat Ding went to California, stayed alone in the crew, and it was normal to call and complain.

At first, it thought filming was interesting, and after going home to play for a while, it was reluctant to go again, and was forcibly sent away by the owner, doing things only three minutes of heat, how comfortable it was to lie down, don't expect the cat to be dedicated.

Han Xuan turned on the TV, watched "Wilderness Survival Secret Technique" while listening to it, in order to show his existence, he also said "um" from time to time, telling him that he would rush over in two days, and then quickly hung up the phone, this chatter never took the initiative to stop, he has long been experienced in this.

When I heard the voice of the stranger talking, I looked up and found that my father was leading an old man in his fifties with gray hair walking in.

The old man was obviously here for the first time, and was looking at the interior of the room with his eyes, full of envy and amazement.

For ordinary people, everything in the living room is shocking enough, there are several pieces of dog head gold on the shelf, and selling one piece is enough to make ordinary people worry about food and clothing for a long time, not to mention those antiques that are very valuable when they look at them, no one will believe that the family uses fake antiques to decorate.

Han Xuan could see at a glance that this was a craftsman, the old man's hands were full of wrinkles, his skin was rough, and his leather clothes were very old.

Daddy didn't introduce him, and went straight to the small door that led to the basement, where there was a vault, really a vault, and there was a lot of gold in it.

Han Xuan looked at the old man, personally poured a glass of water, and asked him, "May I ask who you are?" ”

"Hello, my name is David Eaton, a carpenter from Augusta.

I once came to your house to build a cowshed, and the wooden house next to the pets lived in was also built by my team. ”

The old man seemed a little nervous, and when he spoke, he looked at the passage that Daddy Han entered twice, Han Xuan nodded, and said in his mouth: "I went to the cabin next to me to see it, the craftsmanship is very good, my pets like it very much, even in winter, it will not leak."

By the way, do you have anything to do today, help me fix the wooden door? The attic door is loose and makes a creaking sound when it is opened. ”

The old man smiled, "I'll help you fix it when I'm free, but I don't have time today."

Recently, something happened at home, and I didn't pick up the job, so if I'm in a hurry, I can ask my friend to come over and help.

I came here because I sold a watch to your father, a Vacheron Constantin gold pocket watch, which I brought back from the battlefields in Vietnam.

No one in the town wants to buy it, it takes time to go to the big city to sell on consignment, and I'm in a hurry to use the money. ”

"Oh? How much does he spend, can you show me? ”

It is said that playing with watches is addictive, hurts money and energy, Han Xuan is not afraid of addiction, he can buy everything he wants, he was a little interested in quite cheap antique watches when he was a child, and now he has too much, and he has no love.

As for Dad, he usually doesn't even wear a watch, let alone a pocket watch, thinking that it is a treasure, so he made a request to watch it.

The old carpenter replied, "Of course."

Your father was willing to pay me six thousand three hundred dollars, but he didn't have enough cash on him, and there was a tax on the use of checks, so he came back and got the money.

That money is nothing to you, but to me it's a few days' wages. ”

The corners of Han Xuan's mouth turned up, and he joked: "It's better to save or save, anyway, our Montana has a small population and the financial expenditure is not heavy, so I will treat it as if I don't know......"

When he took the gold pocket watch that his father wanted to buy from the old carpenter, he immediately sensed that something was wrong.

As an antique watch that has been around for a long time, the dial of this Vacheron Constantin pocket watch in my hand is too new, there is no trace of time at all, the surface may be gold, but the scratched place reveals black inside.

I haven't heard of any company that uses a gold-plated case, especially the top brand Vacheron Constantin, even if my dad doesn't understand the watch, he should be able to tell that this is a fake, it's not even a copy, you will know that something is wrong at a glance......

In this way, the old man's anxious expression can be justified, he clearly knows that the watch is wrong, and he is worried and empty-hearted.

Just as he was about to speak, the old man took a new stack of dark green bills, walked out of the basement, handed it to the old carpenter, and said, "You count, I won't sign a contract with you, if you can, I'll make a deal, right?" ”

When Han Qianshan saw his son holding a pocket watch, he deliberately patted him on the shoulder, and reminded his son with a look where the old man couldn't see.

Han Xuan knew in his heart, held the words back into his stomach, and didn't say much, the old carpenter shook his head again and again: "Don't count, thank you."

Then I still have something to do, so I'll go first. ”

"Okay, I need you to do some work after the spring, and I'll call you then."

Hearing Han Qianshan's words, the old man fled away......

After he left, Han Xuan lazily lay on the sofa again, threw the pocket watch at random on the coffee table, and asked his father: "Say, why spend money to buy a fake watch, how do I feel that you are deliberately giving him money?" ”

"As long as you're smart, fortunately you don't talk much, otherwise it would be embarrassing.

Last week, his grandson got into an argument with someone at a bar and shot him in the leg, and I heard Barton say that if he didn't settle privately for $70,000, he would go to court to sue his grandson.

This old man is quite pitiful, he recently borrowed all the relatives and friends who could borrow it, if he hadn't been forced to the point of no choice, I believe he wouldn't have done this kind of thing, he had dealt with David before, this is a good person.

It's just more than 6,000 dollars, if I hadn't deceived me with this watch, I would have lent him money to borrow money, and after meeting in the afternoon, he said that he wanted to sell me a watch, and it was a fake, which made it difficult for me to speak, so I could only follow his wishes.

David said that it is a mortgage, and it will be redeemed when you have money, so you should assume that you don't know, and don't tell others.

In case the news spreads, this old man will be tormented in his heart, and he will be as virtuous as old Patton, and it will be worse to lose face than to kill them......"

Daddy Han was deceived, but with a beautiful expression, he beckoned Joanna and asked her to put away the fake pocket watch.

For some reason, Han Xuan believed that the old man would one day scrape together enough money to redeem the watch.

This is Montana, where the vast majority of its inhabitants are still pure, and in this birthplace of the cowboy spirit, deception is more disgusting to the locals than to shoot someone......

Han Xuan opened his mouth and said: "How many good people have been driven to a dead end by future generations, commonly known as pit fathers and pit grandfathers, and even principles can be discarded for the sake of future generations."

In fact, it's good to let his grandson suffer a little, and he has to use a gun to solve things that can be solved with his fists, and the nature of the two is too far apart, so it's okay to sue him for attempted murder. ”

"That's right, if this happens to you one day, don't expect me to raise money to save you."

"You're kidding, right, who is richer than me?

If even I can't solve it, then I don't need you to save it, it must be a big case. ”

Han Xuan didn't save face for his father at all, and after looking at the time displayed on his watch, he stood up and said, "Prince Saeed of the Emirate of Dubai, just sent me a message, he said that he has arrived, and I will pick him up at the airport now." ”

"It's not like I've been talking about it for a long time, I remember hearing you talk about it last year." I crossed paths in the Maldives a few years ago, and my dad still remembers the prince.

"I guess something was delayed, I called to explain it, saying that I was going to discuss a business a few days ago, and I was going to come to play, but I met a group of real estate developers who wanted to go to Dubai to engage in development at the airport.

He was trained by his father as a successor, and there was a lot of competition between several brothers, so how could there be real time to rest.

I guess I came here to discuss business matters, tourism is just incidental, I bought so much land, but it has not been developed, it may make Prince Said anxious......"

Han Xuan put on his coat and came to the garage to drive a Hummer out in person, the road is covered with ice and snow in winter, this kind of powerful big guy is more convenient than Rolls-Royce and sports cars.

When he arrived at the airport, Prince Said had already gotten off the plane and waited, a half-blue, half-white Boeing 747 belonging to Emirates Airlines, the prince was wrapped in a white robe, standing in the cold wind and night, standing tall and urinating far away.

Turning his head to see Han Xuan's Prince Said, he was extremely embarrassed at the moment......
