Chapter Seventy-One: I Seem to Have Seen It
Jiang Taichuan nodded in agreement, but there was a hint of calculation hidden in his eyebrows: "I can sell these shoes to you, and I am not short of money, I can sell them to you at the original price of eight hundred and ten thousand, but I have one additional condition." ”
"What conditions? Tell the story. ”
"Then I'll be blunt, I fell in love with another second-hand shoe, the work of the late master Tang Hu, which means a lot to me. There are only three pairs in the world, one pair in Dongying Kyoto, one pair in New York, and one pair in our magic capital. As long as you can help me get those shoes, I don't need money to give you these [future shoes]. ”
Jiang Taichuan said, showing the photos of the shoes to Xia Wei and Su Xiangyang.
This is a pair of handmade custom cowhide leather shoes, with a Brogue British pattern on it, the style of the shoes looks a little old, it doesn't seem to be the most popular shoes recently, the style looks average, but the most striking thing is that the body of the shoes is inlaid with fine diamonds all week, and even the tongue is inlaid with a sapphire, which can be described as gorgeous.
The designer seems to have even taken into account the sole, which has a big Tang character written on the sole, and the dots on the "Tang" character are also inlaid with small broken diamonds, without worrying that it will fall out.
With such luxurious shoes, the price is bound to not be cheap.
Xia Wei asked, "Can I ask how much this shoe is worth?" ”
"There are three pairs in the world, and one pair is worth about five million. As long as you can help me find it, I'll pay for it myself. ”
Xia Wei asked, "Then do you know where the shoes are?" Museum or is it in a private collection? ”
Jiang Taichuan sighed: "I only found out that there is a pair in the magic capital, as for where it is, I don't know...... Otherwise, I wouldn't need you to find it for me, would I? But for sure, it's not in an art gallery or museum. ”
With a population of 25 million people and more than 10 million families, this is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. Where do they go to find it all this time?
"Mr. Jiang, you are really a bit of a strong man...... "I can't find it, so I want to find them for free?" This wishful thinking is also too loud.
Xia Wei bit her lip and thought, "That's okay, I'll pay three million to buy your [Future Shoes], and we will continue to help you find out the information about the shoes you want, how about it?" ”
"I said, I'm not short of money." Jiang Taichuan showed a determined smile.
The reason why Jiang Taichuan was willing to let Su Xiangyang try on shoes was nothing more than to let Su Xiangyang experience the beauty of "future shoes" in advance, as long as he tried them, he would definitely love them.
And he was sure that Xia Wei would try her best to buy this shoe from him for the sake of Bosu Xiangyang's favor, and then finally help him find the whereabouts of the lost shoe together.
Whether he can find it in the end or not, he will not suffer.
Xia Wei gritted her teeth hatefully, this damn Jiang Taichuan was actually pinched by him.
Su Xiangyang, who had been staring at the photo for a long time, whispered: "Xia Wei, I seem to have seen these shoes somewhere......"
Jiang Taichuan and Xia Wei's eyes looked at Su Xiangyang in unison, almost in unison: "Really? ”
Su Xiangyang nodded, and pointed to a position in the picture of the soles: "I'm not very sure, but I remember very well that there was a mark under the sole of this pair of shoes, and the neighbor's brother accidentally cut a horizontal with a knife, and in order to cover the scratch, his grandfather carved his surname below, Tang." But I remember the shoes were very ordinary, not set with diamonds or gemstones......"
"If I'm not mistaken, the neighbor's grandfather is called Tang Hu......"
"Yes, it wasn't set with gems at first, and it was processed later." Jiang Taichuan was very excited, and held Su Xiangyang's shoulders with both hands: "Xiangyang, I didn't expect there to be such a fate, if you can help me find these shoes, this pair of [Future Shoes] is yours." ”
Xia Wei and Xu Zimo were also stunned when they heard it, they didn't expect such a coincidental thing.
Su Xiangyang shook his head regretfully: "It's a pity that my neighbor's brother's family moved away from my hometown ten years ago, and we also cut off contact, and now I don't know where they are......"
"It's okay, there's a big breakthrough now. You don't know, maybe your dad does? Xia Wei opened her mouth to comfort.
Su Xiangyang nodded in agreement, maybe his father really knew.
Su Xiangyang took out his mobile phone and immediately called his father: "Dad, are you free now, ask you something." ”
Su's father quickly picked up the phone and responded, "I'm free, your sister just fell asleep, what's the matter, son." ”
Su Xiangyang didn't beat around the bush anymore, and asked directly: "Dad, do you remember the neighbors in the village, where is Brother Xiao Tang and his family now?" ”
Dad Su scratched his head puzzled: "I don't know much about this, I haven't been in touch for many years." ”
Su Xiangyang sighed, sure enough, he thought there was a glimmer of hope.
Just as he was about to hang up the phone, Sudad's hesitant voice came from the other end of the phone: "Eh, I remembered." Their family will go back to their hometown to sweep the grave every Qingming Festival, the village chief should know the current situation of his family, do you need your father to help you inquire? ”
Su Xiangyang's voice became very excited: "Really? That's bothering Dad! ”
"What kind of polite words do the father and son say, I'll call you back when I ask!"
Dad Su hung up the phone after speaking, and at this time, the waiter knocked on the door and served a few exquisite Japanese molecular dishes.
Looking at the exquisite molecular cuisine, the four of them were in no mood, no matter how delicious and exquisite, they felt tasteless in their mouths, and everyone was looking forward to Su's father's phone reply.
The meal was extremely silent, and only Xu Zimo occasionally said a few words to enliven the atmosphere.
Finally, when the meal was about to end, Su's dad called.
"Xiangyang, I asked! What a coincidence, your little brother Tang's family actually came to live in the magic capital. Su's voice sounded very happy, and it seemed that he also wanted to meet his neighbor, whom he hadn't seen for many years.
Also living in the magic capital? That happens to be the same as what Jiang Taichuan said earlier, the whereabouts of the third pair of shoes are the same as in the magic capital!
If everyone was still skeptical of Su Xiangyang's words, at this time, almost 80% sure that the little Tang brother in Su Xiangyang's mouth was the descendant of Tang Hu, then he was very likely to have those treasure shoes!
There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them. Jiang Taichuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he didn't expect that he had been looking for treasure shoes for several years without success, and this boy in his twenties actually knew his whereabouts......
Su Xiangyang swallowed his saliva and asked, "Then did you help me ask for my address and contact information?" ”
