Chapter Ninety-Four: Trying to Build Trust
The guys stood in place for a while, whispering something, and turned their heads to see a teenager looking at the billboard, their kind of people have the most unique eyes, and they can find some details, but from this young man, no matter how you look at it, you can't see anything extraordinary, so they waved their hands: "What are you doing, what about you, don't stand here and delay business!"
Duan Qing turned around, clenched his fists and said, "Everyone, excuse me, I want to meet the appraiser Mr. Huang Houde." ”
The young man didn't have a good impression of Duan Qing's etiquette at all, he just squinted his eyes and said, "Is there an appointment?"
Duan Qing was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile: "This... Not yet... But I can make an appointment..."
"Let's go, don't talk nonsense here, if you want to see Master Huang, let your family write a famous post and send someone to send it, do you think Master Huang can see any kind of local chicken and tile dog?"
Duan Qing was stunned again, the reality was too different from his expectations, but it was only a moment later, he came back to his senses, looked at the impatient looks of several people, didn't speak again, and turned to leave.
"Look at the way I haven't seen the world! really..."Several guys closed the door with a smile, the guy who shouted before said that he had a stomachache and wanted to go to the toilet, and after seeing that his companions had left, he slipped out of the gate again, and trotted all the way to finally catch up with the previous boy, he suddenly beckoned sneakily, Duan Qing knew the meaning of the gesture, and followed him to the alley.
The young man said, "Little brother, you look at you very much, aren't you from the city?"
"Something?" Duan Qing replied to the question, and the huge difference in the attitude of this person before and after made him new and alert.
"Of course there's something, my name is Gao Jian, everyone gives face, and they all call me the third master, oh, I forgot to say it, I am the chief disciple of Master Huang. ”
Gao Jian looked at Duan Qing's face carefully, and thought that he would immediately show a smile and say some flattering words to the other dirt buns, but he didn't expect that this kid was completely different from when he was at the gate, his face didn't change at all, and he had never seen the world at first glance!
Gao Jian sighed in his heart, and said proudly on his face: "At first glance, you are not a local, forget it, I don't care about you." However, you know, Master Huang is the soul of the entire auction house, the people from the City Lord's Mansion want to meet, and the people from the major families also want to meet, and he is very busy all day long, who can see anyone? If the back door is opened for you, we can't refuse the others, what about me..."
Duan Qing said: "Talk about things. ”
This time, it was Gao Jin's turn to be stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that if those family members really didn't dare to talk to themselves like this, that is, this soil bun, who made himself a person with status... Then he sneered and said, "Master Huang, you will definitely not see it, but I am his chief disciple, if you really have something, I can help you pass the checks, rest assured, there is no charge, if you can, I will tell Master Huang in person, you know, this is also for the sake of our auction house's business!"
"Why didn't you say it just now?" Duan Qing looked at Gao Jian expressionlessly.
Gao Jian bared his teeth and smiled, and said: "I'm not afraid of you laughing, Master Huang was angry just now, how dare we disciples make a mistake, doesn't that make Master angry, how dare we!"
Duan Qing was silent, Gao Jian said: "There are many people in this place, and it just so happens that the time is also at the end of the meal, I will be the east, find a restaurant and ask for a private room to talk slowly, I know, you still don't trust me now, and slowly get acquainted, you will know what kind of person my third master Jian is." ”
Duan Qing thought this was good, so he nodded and followed. It's not far, it's on the main street, it's a big restaurant, three floors, seven or eight juniors are busy, and they all greet each other with a smile after seeing Gao Jian: "Yo, the third master is here, how many of you are?"
Gao Jian nodded proudly and said, "Two, I'm entertaining friends, you can't break my face, the box is a must, and good wine and good food are on it." ”
"Look at what you said, the Tianzi box is always reserved for you. Xiao Er went upstairs to speak, and the little thin legs were very attentive.
It's been almost a month since he entered the city, Duan Qing walked into the restaurant for the first time, there were only two or three empty tables in the hall, and there were people in the box, it seemed that this Gao Jian's status was really high, and people who passed by from time to time greeted him and said that they would go up to toast in a while, Gao Jian refused and said that he would entertain friends today, and he had important things to discuss, another day, another day.
The Tianzihao box is very loose, can seat eight people, the elegant tables and chairs exude a unique fragrance of wood, and the porcelain of the dishes is very transparent, showing the high-end.
The dishes were very fast, steamed chicken, sauce elbows, braised pork ribs, scallion roasted mutton, two pots of hot fragrant old wine, Gao Jian personally picked up the wine pot and poured wine for Duan Qing, and said with a smile: "Come, try his dishes." ”
"Every time the third master comes to the store, he specially instructs the cook to do it with his heart, and it is definitely not bad. "The little two farts constantly.
"Okay, you go down. Gao Jian waved his hand and sent Xiao Er away, as if he was an elder who cared about his juniors, he began to give Duan Qing vegetables, kept pouring wine, and asked: "Who is it? What are your plans to come to this Fengdu City? Do you have any relatives or anything? Eat slowly, eat slowly, don't worry, look at you, hehe..."
Duan Qing didn't speak at all, he ate and drank violently, looking at Gao Jian with contempt and pride, and said in his heart that he was worthy of being a country boy who had just entered the city, and he didn't know what etiquette was at all. is proud to find the right person, often this kind of body will have good things, and it is easy to deceive.
When the wine had passed the third round, he asked, "By the way, what exactly do you want to identify?" Now I will help you to keep your eyes long and check the checks, and when you are drunk, you may not be able to see accurately. ”
Duan Qing put down the bamboo chopsticks, paused, and felt an iron lump from his sleeve, and Gao Jian's eyes suddenly lit up.
Trust, two very simple words, but in this world, it has become synonymous with luxury.
Duan Qing is eighteen years old, in this not very long life, there are only two people who can make him trust, it is obvious that this Gao Jian is not in this ranks, but living in this kind of city, he needs a lot, and he is missing a lot of things, this is not in the garbage mountain, so he decided to try to trust.
For example, the proprietress in the Rift Inn, although she didn't say a few words, Duan Qing paid a few copper plates every day, and the proprietress allowed him to live in that room, and she would never drive him out until the time, which was a primary trust relationship.
This Gao Jian in front of him, Duan Qing has never trusted him from beginning to end, but he knows that he must go through a little contact to establish this trust relationship, he has a storage bag, which contains a large number of pills that the monks under the foundation building period need quite urgently, but they can't take it out yet, only when the trust has accumulated to a certain extent.
So, he took out a piece of pure gold that was more valuable than Mithril, it was not so pure, but the content was also above eighty, and from the other party's eyes, Duan Qing also realized that this thing might be more valuable than he imagined.
However, the light in Gao Jian's eyes only flashed, his brows furrowed slightly, he flipped the pure gold, looked left and right, and took out a knife from his pocket to scrape it, and then asked, "This is... Well, a metal, where did you get it?"
Duan Qing said: "How about picking it up, is it worth it?"
Looking at the look of concern in Duan Qing's eyes, Gao Jian's heart settled down for a moment, and said, "Well... It's like the product of several metals fused together, in fact, to be honest, I feel a bit like the residue in a furnace, but the weight is obviously wrong, you know, I'm just an apprentice, I don't dare to make assertions about this unknown object, it's responsible. ”
After speaking, he looked at Duan Qing very sincerely.
