Chapter 55: Waiting
..
I didn't expect things to develop like this, and I didn't expect that the person who traded with Yu Suwan was actually a foreigner.
As soon as I entered the house, the foreign man closed the door from the outside, so that only the old man and a very beautiful foreign woman were left in the room.
The foreign woman wore a beige trench coat and her hair was completely blonde, I don't know if she was British or American, but the old man looked seventy or eighty years old, wearing a black coat, and although he looked old, he was not to the point where he could die at any moment.
Originally, I was determined by Yu Su Wan, and I pretended that the sore throat was all negotiated by her, and I just had to shake my head or nod my head to show my attitude. But now that Yu Suwan has a stomachache and runs, she left me alone, looking at the two people who are looking at me on the other side of the sofa, I feel uncomfortable sitting there.
It was the foreign woman in the trench coat who spoke first, and she said to me: "It's nice to meet you, Mr. Su, I'm Mary, and this one is Professor Chen, who is proficient in antique appraisal." He gestured to the old man beside her.
Professor Chen nodded at me as a greeting, I didn't expect Mary to speak Chinese so well, if I could speak, I would really be able to communicate with her very smoothly.
It's a pity that I can't speak now, after all, I was found by Yu Suwan to impostor, if I speak, I won't spoil Yu Suwan's big thing.
Although Yu Suwan is no longer the potential partner who wants to marry home in my heart now, the posture she put on and the object of the transaction are still foreigners, which let me know that I really want to die when I see some money this time, but I also know that there is no chance for me to refuse now. I couldn't help but curse angrily in my heart: "Damn! "Who knew that a gentle and lovely ICBC waiter could actually transform into a female devil in transnational transactions!
Of course, I really don't want to lean on Yu Suwan, who is so good-looking and lovely, but this feeling of being calculated still makes me very uncomfortable. I now clearly know that I have fallen for Yu Suwan's beauty trick now, and when I get on her thief ship, I can only jump into the sea if I want to, which will definitely be shattered.
So I had to raise my right hand and point to my throat, then cough twice in a low voice, and wave my hand at Mary, as if she were signaling that I was not in a position to speak right now.
Mary was taken aback by my actions and asked me, "Mr. Su, you have a sore throat and can't speak?" ”
I nodded to her. She spread her hands out, made a helpless gesture, and said, "Okay then! Mr. Su, it's okay if you don't speak, but you always bring something! ”
I knew that what she was talking about was the dark green box that Yu Suwan had just handed over to me, but I still hesitated to take out the small box when Su Wan came.
The foreign woman, whose name was Mary, was mistaken, and saw her lift a small silver-white box that lay at her feet and place it on the small wooden table in front of me. She snapped and opened the small box, which I thought would be a slow renminbi or a dollar, but what I didn't expect to see was eight small oval grooves, each of which contained a glass test tube plugged with a small wooden stopper.
The test tube was full of emerald green liquid, and there was only about a centimeter of space between the liquid and the small wooden stopper, if it weren't for the fact that I couldn't speak now, for fear of ruining Yu Suwan's deal, I really wanted to ask Mary what was in this test tube immediately.
I heard Mary say, "Mr. Su, don't hesitate, we must be the real thing, I think you can see it at a glance, quickly take out your things and show them to Professor Chen." The sooner we close the deal, the less risk we have, don't look at us on a small island now, but who knows if there are any other people on this island besides the police. ”
I was shocked when I heard Mary mention the police, thinking that if you are afraid of the police, then this transaction must not be a legitimate transaction. But when I heard her say this, I also wanted to end this transaction as soon as possible, thinking that Yu Suwan had a stomachache and didn't know when she would be able to come up, so I showed them the things first, which saved her time for a while to come and appraise again.
After thinking so, I no longer hesitated to put the small box that Yu Suwan had just handed over to me on the table.
I saw Mary's face happy when she saw the box, but she still pushed the box to Professor Chen and said to him, "Professor Chen, take a good look and see if it is the thing the boss wants." ”
Actually, I'm also curious about what is in this small box, such a small box is not much bigger than the small box containing wedding rings, I really don't know what valuable things can be used to exchange for the eight small tubes of liquid in the small silver-white box.
I don't know what those eight tubes of emerald green liquid are, but since it's all about doing business with foreigners, I don't think it's going to be cheap.
I think since the value of this liquid cannot be estimated, then I have to see how valuable the things provided by Yu Suwan are, it stands to reason that since it is a transaction, the things on both sides should be about the same value.
Professor Chen cautiously opened the box, and I was disappointed by the contents of the box, I originally thought that it should be something jade, but I didn't expect that the thing inside was just a completely irregularly shaped jade piece.
The jade piece is milky white, it is said to be a jade piece, but it is smaller and thinner than the jade piece, and it is difficult to say that it seems to be something that falls from a huge jade stone with a hammer, this size and thickness, I think it can only be described by jade shavings.
But such a piece of jade dust still made the foreign woman almost ecstatic, but she didn't dare to stretch out her hand, she just stared at Professor Chen and poured the thing from the small box to the palm of his hand with thin rubber gloves and looked at it repeatedly.
I'm really speechless, the milky white jade chips are so pure that they don't even have a pattern, which country's antiques are this, is it something they want to know at a glance, why did a foreign woman find such an old professor with profound skills at a glance to see this thing? I saw that Professor Chen actually put his nose on it and smelled it, as if it could smell like cheese.
Finally, Professor Chen reluctantly put the thing back in the small box, and he and the lid of the small box nodded at Mary, and I saw that Mary's expression was one of relief.
Mary closed the silver-white box containing eight glass test tubes, pushed it in front of me and said, "Deal." "I'm even more confused.
Obviously, this is a bartering transaction, and the bargaining chips of the transaction have already been prepared, but why did Yu Suwan tell me something about the bargaining between the two sides in advance?
Mary saw that I was stunned, so she smiled and said to me, "Mr. Su, are you wondering why I only gave you one box after saying that I had two boxes?" ”
"Two boxes? Could it be that this jade shavings should be exchanged for two boxes of this liquid? While I was in a state of confusion, I heard Mary say to me, "The reason we have given you only one box this time is that the value of the other box has been offset by your father's other request." ”
"What requirements?" That's what I asked subconsciously.
I saw Mary slowly stand up, and took out a small silver-white pistol from her bosom, which was pointed at me, and she said to me, "Your father's request is to kill you here!" ”
