Qian Yongqiang said: "I like to sell things clearly, I don't like to be blinded, if you reveal that something is wrong, count it as mine!" ”

"That's good!" 'Little Pigtail Li' brought a basin of water, found a brush, lightly brushed the corner a few times, then lifted a corner, looked at it again, and said, "It's okay, I took it, how much does it cost?" ”

"Why don't you uncover them all?" Qian Yongqiang asked, "Only when it is uncovered can you see it clearly!" ”

"No need!" 'Little Pigtail Li' said: "I don't have time to reveal it all today, and I will slowly reveal it when I have time one day." If you hastily uncover it today and break something, you won't lose it. No problem, make an offer. ”

"Ten thousand dollars!" Qian Yongqiang said.

"Ouch!" 'Little Pigtail Lee' screamed, as if he had been stung by a wasp, "How can this be worth 10,000 yuan?" ”

"Why isn't it worth it?" Qian Yongqiang asked.

"His paintings are not ancient paintings, they have a definite price. His paintings are sold in galleries all over the country in Nanjing and Beijing. There are only 5,000 in a square foot gallery, and you only have two square feet, so you want to sell 10,000. I'm not going to make any money with it! ”

"Then you hurry up, how much can you give?"

"One price, eight thousand. Let me earn some too! "'Pigtail Lee' said, "This is going to be a lot of work!" ”

"Eight thousand is eight thousand!" Qian Yongqiang said, "My own business is done, you should hurry up and ask the experts." ”

"Happy, I like to do business with people like you!" "Pigtail Lee" said with a grin, "It just so happened that a customer recently asked me for a painting of this person, what a coincidence!" ”

'Little Pigtail Li' took the painting, paid the money, and then said politely to a few people: "You really don't wait in the store?" ”

"No!" Qian Yongqiang smiled and said, "You just have to lock the door, and we'll sit outside and wait!" ”

"Okay, I'll come when I go!"

Huang Youcai laughed and said, "How can I listen to the words of Song Jiang in the Water Margin when he was looking for Chao Gai to report the news? ”

"He won't 'repair the plank road in the open and Chen Cang in the dark', right?" Li Qiming asked.

"Don't worry, when the time comes, we will also look at what they say, and we won't say what they say!" Qian Yongqiang said.

After a long while, "Little Pigtail Li" ran back out of breath and said: "At first, the experts didn't agree to let me bring people over, but in the end, I couldn't stand the stalking, so I agreed to bring only one person over!" ”

"Little Pigtail Lee" looked at everyone and asked, "Which of you came with me with a painting?" ”

Everyone looked at each other. Huang Youcai asked: "Why can you only go alone?" ”

"People are experts and big shots, how can anyone see them if they want to?" "Pigtail Lee" said, "Hurry up and discuss it to see who is suitable." ”

"Do you need to ask?" Wang Ziren said, "It must be Qian Yongqiang who went." ”

"Yes. Qian Yongqiang goes! Huang Youcai and Li Qiming nodded in agreement.

"Then let's go." "Little Pigtail Li" said, "It's too late to wait, the expert is off work, and this matter will be in vain today!" ”

"That's good!" Qian Yongqiang said, "I'll drive you there!" ”

"Little Pigtail Li" shook his head and said, "Let's take a taxi, your car, other units may not let you in!" ””

"Phew!" Huang Youcai snorted and said, "What's wrong with our car?" At least it's still four-wheeled, and I'm afraid that someone in their unit will have to ride a two-wheeled car after work, right? ”

"Xiao Huang, don't do this!" "Little Pigtail Li" said, "In fact, taking a taxi is faster than driving, the road money in the city is always unfamiliar, and the taxi drivers are all old oilers, and they will arrive with a squeak." ”

"Then if the business fails, whose money will be paid for the taxi?" Huang Youcai asked "pigtail Li".

"Half a family." "Little Pigtail Li" said with a smile, "It's not easy to do business, so let's be considerate of each other." ”

"I can't figure out that you people are doing thousands of big businesses, why do you still keep worrying about these ten yuan and eight yuan?" Huang Youcai looked at the smiling "pigtail Li" and shook his head.

"Accumulate a lot, add up a lot!" "Little Pigtail Li" greeted Qian Yongqiang, "Let's go quickly." ”“

"Okay." Qian Yongqiang put Huang Youcai's backpack on his back and asked everyone to wait for him here, and then left with "Little Pigtail Li".

I got in the car, and after a while, I came to the door of an art institution.

"Pigtail Lee" came to the doorman and greeted the security guard inside outside the window.

Qian Yongqiang stood far away, and saw "Little Pigtail Li" nodding vigorously, smiling all over his face, handing out cigarettes and lighting fires.

After some tossing, a chubby doorman came out lazily, opened the side door, glanced at Qian Yongqiang, and said to "Little Pigtail Li": "You guys come out quickly." ”

"Oh yes, yes." "Pigtail Lee" said with a smile, "Excuse me!" ”

The two walked into the office building, and "Little Pigtail Li" whispered to Qian Yongqiang: "Walk lightly, don't look around." ”

Qian Yongqiang nodded and silently followed behind "Little Pigtail Li". After a while, when he reached the third floor, in front of an office door, "Little Pigtail Li" stopped, knocked lightly on the door a few times, and then pushed the door and walked in, Qian Yongqiang followed closely behind with his head down.

Qian Yongqiang felt that the room he entered was particularly large, and when he peeked, the whole room was empty, only a huge desk was placed in the corner of the room, and a pair of sofas and coffee tables were placed in front of the desk.

An elderly man with a slightly bald head and delicate skin sat quietly behind a large desk.

Seeing "Little Pigtail Li" and Qian Yongqiang walking in, the elderly man raised his head slightly and motioned for them to go over with his eyes.

"Old Li, I'm here to trouble you again!" "Pigtail Lee" bowed respectfully to the older man.

Qian Yongqiang stood beside "Little Pigtail Li" stiffly, wanting to open his mouth but couldn't make a sound, wanting to bow but couldn't bend down, his face was red with embarrassment for a while.

"This is Old Li!" "Little Pigtail Li" said softly to Qian Yongqiang.

"Oh, Elder Li." Qian Yongqiang agreed, but he didn't know what to say.

Li Lao glanced at Qian Yongqiang scrutinically and smiled slightly.

"Hurry up and get your stuff out." "Pigtail Lee" reminded him.

"Oh." Qian Yongqiang hurriedly put down his backpack, and then took the painting out of the newspaper tremblingly.

"That's it." "Little Pigtail Li" said to Li Lao with a smile, "You always help with the palm of your eyes!" ”

Li Lao looked at it very casually, then nodded to "pigtail Li", and motioned to Qian Yongqiang to put the painting away.

After Qian Yongqiang put the painting away, he looked at Li Lao blankly, waiting for him to comment.

Unexpectedly, "Little Pigtail Li" whispered to Qian Yongqiang: "You wait for me outside first." ”

Qian Yongqiang frowned and looked at Li Lao, Li Lao didn't make a sound, and looked down at the documents on the table.

Qian Yongqiang walked out of the office slowly, gently closed the door, and then stood stupidly in the corridor waiting for "pigtail Li".

After a while, "Little Pigtail Li" walked out, pulled Qian Yongqiang and left.

"How's it going, Boss Li?" Qian Yongqiang asked impatiently, "Is Li Lao right when he says this painting?" ”

"Shh "Little Pigtail Li" put his finger to his lips and motioned for Qian Yongqiang to silence.

It wasn't until the two of them walked out of the door of the unit that "Little Pigtail Li" let out a long breath and said, "Let's go back!" ”

"Boss Li, your surname is Li, and this old Li is also surnamed Li. What is your relationship? Qian Yongqiang asked.

"Hee-hee." "Little Pigtail Lee" laughed and said, "It doesn't matter, it was one five hundred years ago." Mr. Li used to frequent my gallery and bought a lot of my things. ”

"Then did Elder Li say how about my painting?" Qian Yongqiang still threw out the question he was most concerned about.

"Elder Li said that the thing is right, but it is too broken to pay a lot of money."

"Something is right!" Qian Yongqiang immediately became excited and almost shouted.

"Be quiet," "Pigtail Lee" looked at the people around him and said, "It's out there!" ”

The two took another taxi and returned to the gallery of "Pigtail Lee".

Although the back and forth was only a short little more than an hour, Huang Youcai and the others waited anxiously, as if several days had passed.

"How?" Several people surrounded Qian Yongqiang and asked anxiously.

"Come into the house and say." Qian Yongqiang suppressed the excitement in his heart and led a few people into the gallery of "Little Pigtail Li".

"The painting is right!" Qian Yongqiang closed the door and said loudly.

"The painting is right!" Huang Youcai and Li Qiming were jumping around with excitement, and Wang Ziren's eyes also had tears flashing.

"Great! How can I let go of my heart! Wang Ziren said.

"'Little Pigtail Lee', how much does it cost?" Huang Youcai looked at the worried "pigtail Li" on the side and asked. "Why do you seem a little upset?"

"Happy, happy!" "Little Pigtail Lee" said, "Calm down, let's discuss the price." ”

Qian Yongqiang and a few others gradually quieted down, waiting for the bid of "Little Pigtail Li".

"When I was on the road just now, I told Qian Yongqiang that this painting is too poor to sell for a very high price.

"If you don't sell it at a high price, you sell it at a regular price." Qian Yongqiang said.

"How much do you want to sell?" "Pigtail Lee" asked tentatively.

"Didn't I tell you about it last time I came? At that time, Lao Wei and Boss Chang were there. Qian Yongqiang said, "You forgot it only for a few days?" ”

"Nonsense," "pigtail lee" said, "how can it be worth so much money!" ”

"So how much is it worth?" Qian Yongqiang said, "Pay it back." ”

"Little Pigtail Li" said very embarrassedly: "Don't tell my brothers, I really like this painting!" Today, Elder Li helped me palm my eyes again, and I will give you a lot-"

Several people waited with wide eyes for the numbers in the mouth of "Little Pigtail Lee" to come out.

"Fifty thousand!" "Little Pigtail Lee" held back for a long time and finally said it.

"How is this possible!" At that time, Huang Youcai was fried, "'Little Pigtail Li', you are too dark!" ”

After "Little Pigtail Lee" said this number, he was a lot more relaxed, as if he had unloaded a big package. He said: "Brothers, this price is not low!" ”

Qian Yongqiang shook his head and said: "Compared with the price in our hearts, it is too far behind. I'm afraid it's hard for us to get this business done! ”

"'Little Pigtail Li', you didn't give a price!" Huang Youcai said, "How much can I give?" ”

"Just 50,000!" "Pigtail Lee" said.

"You're such an iron-mouthed steel-toothed man!" Li Qiming said, "Otherwise, we won't sell it to you and find someone else to take a look." You're not the only gallery in Nanjing! ”

"It's not that I give less, just now Li Lao said, this painting is very troublesome in the later stage, and it requires a high level of technology to repair. That's a lot of money! "Little Pigtail Li" heard Li Qiming say that he was looking for someone else, and his brows furrowed.

"Boss Li, you count these as costs, we understand, but your price is too far from our expectations. How can we talk about this business? Qian Yongqiang said embarrassedly, "This painting was appraised by you from an expert, and if we don't sell it to you, we will definitely not be happy in our hearts!" ”

"Then I'll add a little more, fifty-five thousand. This is going down, right? "Little Pigtail Li" looked at Qian Yongqiang and said.

"Boss Li, can you let us discuss?" Qian Yongqiang said.

"Okay, I'll go out first, everyone, please." As he spoke, "Little Pigtail Lee" was about to walk out the door.

"No, Boss Li, let's go out to discuss, you wait in the house for a while." Qian Yongqiang said, "How can I let you out?" Aren't we anti-customer-oriented? ”

"It's okay, it's okay!" "Little Pigtail Lee" said, "You just have to discuss in the house, it's a big mistake to get tens of thousands of dollars outside!" ”

"Little pigtail Li, don't scare me, just a few of us, not bragging, not to mention this painting, even ten of eight, we dare to walk on the street with our backs. Do you believe it or not? Huang Youcai said.

"Yes, of course I did!" "Pigtail Lee" said, "It's better to be careful!" ”

"Boss Li, since you are assured that we will discuss it in your store, then please avoid it, sorry!" Qian Yongqiang said.

"Okay, okay. Let's hope we can make this business! "Pigtail Lee" walked out step by step.
