Even if he was a human being in two lives, he became a Xuan Xiu by chance in this life, and Xu Zhengdao still believes in the principle of being a low-key person. There is no shortage of smart people in this world, and those who lead the tide of the times are not simple characters.

After Xu Zhengdao came out of the Qian family, from the day he acquired the old furniture, he knew that sooner or later someone would discover the hidden wealth in it. But being low-key doesn't mean being bullied, and he doesn't want to live too aggrieved in his life.

Again, the old furniture he bought was not that it couldn't be sold, but that it depended on whether the other party was sincere. Take the right path, buy at a high price above board, and make money, why should he refuse?

If he wants to force him to sell the old furniture he acquired in a low-key manner through intimidation or other abnormal means, then Xu Zhengdao will also let the other party understand that if he is annoyed by the tiger, the consequences will be very serious!

But what he never expected was that on the second day after he returned to Beijing, a few uninvited guests came to the courtyard house, which was rarely frequented. Looking at the middle-aged woman who finally got out of the car, he was really a little surprised.

In these days, people who can really own a private car are basically either rich or expensive. And the woman in front of her, judging from her face and state, should be at least thirty years old. But the maintenance seems to be good, so it still looks very young.

And the three men around her, two of them seem to be not low in cultural literacy. On the contrary, it was the leading man, whose humble appearance somewhat reminded Xu Zhengdao of the appearance of traitors in film and television dramas.

"It's a bit interesting, I just went to Qian's house yesterday to pay New Year's greetings, and today these people came to the door, which is worthy of being a local snake!"

It is said that the person who comes is a guest, whether it is a distinguished guest or a bad guest, in the first month, people come to visit, and it is somewhat impolite to refuse to see it. So much so that after the other party knocked on the door, Xu Zhengdao said unhurriedly: "Who?" It's coming, wait a minute! ”

Because he lives alone, he usually doesn't have much contact with his neighbors in the alley, and Xu Zhengdao is used to closing the courtyard door every time he stays at home. In this way, even if a stranger wants to come in, he must knock on the door first.

As the courtyard door opened, looking at the three men and one woman standing at the door, Xu Zhengdao pretended to be confused and said, "A few are you invited, who are you looking for?" ”

"Mr. Xu, we have come to visit you. I heard that you like to collect old furniture, we always want to talk to you, I wonder if Mr. Xu can make it convenient? Oh, this is our Mr. Jin, the guest of honor from Xiangjiang. ”

Listening to the words of the person who called the door, Xu Zhengdao said very calmly: "Mr. Jin, a guest from Xiangjiang? I just returned to the city yesterday, and Mr. Jin knew that I was back, and it seems that Mr. Jin is also a caring person! ”

Jin Lijia, who heard this, heard the ridicule in her words, but she was not angry at all and smiled: "Mr. Xu, please forgive me for taking the liberty of disturbing." Because I love to collect old furniture, I learned that my husband also likes this thing, so I came to visit and ask for advice. ”

"In the first month, everyone who comes is a guest. Since Jin is always a guest from Xiangjiang, it is reasonable for me to serve a cup of tea. It's just that the humble house is shabby, and I hope that Mr. Jin doesn't mind, a few of them are please! ”

After stretching out his hand to invite everyone into the hospital, he did not close the door, but left it open. The middle-aged man who took the initiative to talk before, saw that Xu Zhengdao didn't pay attention to him, his expression was a little unhappy, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Walking into the courtyard and looking at the renovated Erjin courtyard, Jin Lijia seemed to be interested and said, "Mr. Xu, it seems that the ancestors of your mansion have quite a lot of shade." It's really rare that this Kyoto Erjin Courtyard can be preserved so well! ”

Mr. Jin smiled! I'm a flat-headed people, what kind of house, what ancestors, that's all you hold. This yard was purchased at my expense last year. At that time, the yard was hollowed out by termites, and I paid to tear it down and hire someone to repair it again.

Because the master invited has good craftsmanship and uses old wood, it looks a little old. But I'm a person who likes old objects with a historical background. Of course, this courtyard is definitely not comparable to the Xiangjiang mansion villa. ”

Xu Zhengdao, who smiled back, immediately invited everyone to the east wing room for tea. After learning that this courtyard house was demolished and rebuilt, Jin Lijia was stunned for a moment, but she didn't say anything more.

Seeing the old furniture placed in the east wing, Jin Lijia's expression instantly brightened. Especially when I saw those dark red armchairs, the whole person became energetic. It can be seen that she really likes these old furniture.

After sitting down, looking at Xu Zhengdao, who began to make tea for everyone, she said with emotion: "Mr. Xu, I heard Xiao Zhu say before that there is a big collector in Kyoto who likes expensive old furniture, and I still don't believe it a little.

Now that I see all this old furniture in your house, I really believe him. I've heard about this set of royal rosewood carved passionflower armchairs before. It's just that I didn't expect this set of armchairs to be collected. ”

"It can be seen that Kim is always a genuine fond of these kinds of antiquities. It's just that I personally like these old things. Compared with other people's collection of antiques, I think wood is more real, and the historical value is equally heavy. ”

"That's right! Although this set of armchairs should not have come from the hands of the palace craftsmen. But the master who built this chair must have been skilled in his early years. The important thing is that the condition is still so well preserved, it's really rare! ”

When it comes to old objects, Jin Lijia seems to be very interested, and Xu Zhengdao doesn't mind chatting with her. From the accent of her speech, he could also tell that this female boss should not be from Xiangjiang, but more like a Kyoto native than him.

After three rounds of tea, Jin Lijia also said directly: "Mr. Xu, although it is a little abrupt, I like these old furniture in your collection very much." I would venture to ask, can Mr. Xu cut his love? Of course, price is not an issue. ”

Xu Zhengdao, who was holding the tea, did not refuse but said with a smile: "Mr. Jin, listening to your accent, you must have grown up at the foot of the imperial city, right?" If you can find this, I believe you should also know something about my situation.

I don't deny that when I ask someone to buy these old furniture, I also think that they have a lot of room for appreciation in the future. Although I am not short of money, who would have too much money? How much do you think this armchair is worth? ”

Jiansha did not refuse to sell, but Jin Lijia seemed a little hesitant. Although from what I have learned, it seems that the young man in front of him is a rural person with a household registration on the outskirts of the city. The problem is, the temperament doesn't look like it at all.

After a moment of silence, Jin Lijia gritted her teeth and said, "If Mr. Xu is willing to cut his love, I am willing to bid 10,000 yuan." ”

"A handful or a set?"

As soon as the words fell, Xu Zhengdao still calmly asked. Before she could speak, the man carrying the briefcase next to her suddenly spoke: "Mr. Xu, the price we always offered, of course, is a set." That's a fair price! ”

Hearing the man interject, Xu Zhengdao smiled and said, "Mr. Jin, your secretary or assistant?" Xiangjiang people? ”

"My assistant! A handful of 10,000, the price is indeed exaggerated a little. ”

But what surprised Jin Lijia even more was that Xu Zhengdao still smiled and said, "Is this expensive?" If this set of rosewood chairs appears in the auction house of Xiangjiang, how much do you think this set of chairs can be auctioned?

Although I'm just a flat-headed ordinary person, I'm still familiar with Xiangjiang. If Mr. Jin sincerely wants to buy it, and the price is sincere, then I am willing to cut my love. But Jin always thinks that I haven't seen anything in the world, so I still don't have to open my mouth.

I won't tell you the truth, although my parents are dead, I still have a second uncle in Xiangjiang, so I don't usually have much contact. But when I have time, I will also go to Xiangjiang to live for a while. It's just that I prefer to stay in Kyoto. ”

Xu Zhengdao, who said this, seemed to casually reveal the watch hidden in his sleeve. Seeing the watch he was wearing, Jin Lijia and the male assistant carrying the briefcase didn't say anything more for a while, because they knew the value of the watch.

How can someone who can wear such an expensive watch have no money?

It seems to be a sky-high price of 10,000 yuan, but for Jin Lijia, if there is no money to make by buying this set of rosewood chairs, how can she be willing to spend a lot of money? The person who wears a watch worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, will she be short of 10,000 yuan?
