The third uncle left in a hurry, so he just picked up a suitcase and left his laptop, clothes and some sundries here.

He was usually very cautious, but this situation showed that he had lost his mind when he left.

In the days after he left, I kept thinking about what he finally understood. In my opinion, there can be no explanation for such a complicated thing, it can only be a mystery. Unless there's something else I don't know.

It's a pity that my understanding of that matter was limited to my third uncle's oral account, which was incomplete and untrue. I really couldn't think of a reason, so I had to give up in the end. Soon, I slowly forgot about this matter.

For the next few days, I stayed in my room watching TV during the day, and went to get foot massages at night. I lived a life as decadent as a fairy. This kind of life was not interrupted until the waiter at the foot washing center of the hotel came up to settle the bill with me.

Although the consumption here is not high, we are used to spending money, and before we knew it, we already owed more than 60,000 yuan.

As a store owner, I can tolerate you owing a debt of 60,000 yuan, which is already a great honor for you. I couldn't refuse, so I had to write a check and settle the bill.

As a result, I suddenly didn't have much money left. I was fine myself. At most, I could move to a decent hotel. But Panzi's medical expenses in the hospital were really a lot of money.

I was walking back and forth in the room, feeling annoyed, when I suddenly saw the gold jade coffin cover still lying in the bag on the side.

The third uncle took great care of this thing and even covered it with four or five layers of oil paper. As I looked at it, I suddenly had an impulsive idea.

I wanted to find an antique market, sell this thing, and use it to save some money for emergencies. But at first, this thing was too hot to touch and not safe to keep around.

Secondly, now that money is a popular word, it's not a big deal for me to be kicked out, but it will be troublesome if Pan Zi stops taking medicine.

I thought about going down to the lobby and asking the waiter for a few place names, then I took a taxi and turned around in Jinan.

The largest concentration of antiques and calligraphy products in Jinan is Hero Mountain. This market is a bit old, there are many people inside, and it is relatively noisy. However, I heard that most of the products are fake.

I got out of the car carrying the heavy jade coffin cover, thinking about finding a bigger shop. This thing is not something ordinary people can afford. Those big stores must have contacted some relatively big customers, and I can ask him to introduce it. .

As for the value of this thing, I know it well. I discussed it with my third uncle on the way back. My third uncle said it was only a million. This kind of thing has a price but no market. First, it is difficult for anyone to buy it at such an expensive price. Unless you are a foreigner, this thing is too big, so don’t take it out of the country.

I was very disgusted with the leakage of national treasures, and I thought it would be best to find a patriotic entrepreneur who could sell half of them and give them away. Of course, the national treasures should be placed in Chinese people's rooms.

I was looking around in the market, and after walking a few steps, I suddenly saw a bronze incense burner in the window of a shop, with figures engraved on it. At first glance, it looked a little weird.

This was the first time I saw this thing, so I lowered my head to take a closer look. At this time, the boss came out and said, "Hey, you know your stuff, but it's a pity. We don't sell this thing. Putting it here is just for show." Yes, where are you from? (friend on the road), why don't you look at others?"

As soon as I heard his accent, he was from Beijing. Judging from the meaning of his words, he should have some connection with Tufuzi, so I patted my bag and packed it in a hint, indicating that I had something to sell.

He looked at me and showed a contemptuous expression. He probably thought that I was too young to be good at anything, so he waved his hand inside and asked me to go in and talk.

After I entered, a pretty little girl poured me a glass of boiled water, and then the boss smiled and said, "Young man,

Is there anything you want to sell? We don't accept this ordinary stuff. "

I took a look at the items in his shop, and it was true. Almost all of them were valuable treasures. I nodded and said, "I have a set of jade. I want to show you, boss, how much it is worth."

He laughed and said: "Jade, it's the same thing. It's really unheard of. Well, there's no business today anyway. Let me take a look."

I wanted to show off, so I took up the jade coffin cover and showed one corner to him. This expert is not an expert. You can tell by looking at his performance. His expression changed as soon as he saw it, and then he almost fell down when he touched it with his hand. .

Without saying a word, I stuffed the jade coffin cover back, looked at him with a smile, and said, "How about this jade?"

He got up and pulled down the rolling shutter door of the shop, sent the waitress away, then poured my glass of water himself, and brought me another cup of tea. When I smelled it, I said, Damn, this is the best Tieguanyin. This treatment comes too fast.

He wiped the sweat from his head and said, "I don't know what to call this craftsman?"

When I saw it, I saw that this man was indeed not a simple antique dealer. He reacted so quickly. I could tell at a glance that this thing was poured out. I couldn't help but express it with a polite smile: "My surname is Wu. What is the boss's name?" Then The man said, "You can just call me Lao Hai. Then Master Wu, are you going to take action, or do you want me to take a look?"

I said: "Of course I will take action. This thing is a bit hot to hold around."

He walked back and forth in the room a few times and asked, "Is it all?"

I nodded: "You won't miss a piece of it. It's fresh out of the pan and it's still hot."

He sat down and said softly: "Master Wu, I am a cheerful person. I dare to say that you are the only one who can take away this whole Hero Mountain, but I will never argue with you seriously about this thing." It’s necessary. You can’t tell me the price for a baby, so just tell me what’s in your heart. If you’re willing to give it up, I’ll call you and ask my friend.”

I thought about it for a moment, and I thought I would come and ask for one million at any cost. Da Kui's family would have to give him 300,000, and Pan Zi would have to pay at least 200,000 for hospitalization. The fat man had already left a message, and I would remit the money to him after selling the things. In the past, such a person could only get a little over 100,000 yuan. Thinking of how much he had fought for his life, he couldn't help but feel that it was too little. But the third uncle said, pouring buckets is like this. Otherwise, why would they pour one bucket after another and pour you a bucket? No matter how precious the things you can bring out are, no one will buy them, they are still garbage, so he doesn’t want anything that is too good. Take it, you can’t sell it even if you take it.

I estimated that it was almost 1 million, and made a one gesture to Lao Hai. He couldn't help but feel happy, and nodded hurriedly and said no problem.

I felt a little depressed when I saw it. Could it be that the price was too low?

He asked me to wait, then he hid in a corner and made a phone call softly. After the call, his face turned red with joy and said, "It's done! It's done! Master Wu, you're lucky, there are really people waiting for this thing." , this 1 million is not high, and 2 million is not low, I quoted you 1.2 million, what do you think?"

When I heard that it was 200,000 yuan more than I expected, I had nothing to say. I had to say that I had brought the loss on myself, so I nodded and agreed to close the deal, and asked him how the introduction fee was calculated.

He smiled and said: "To tell you the truth, they have prepared a little more for me over there. Just keep the 1.2 million. This is our first transaction and we treat it like making friends. Next time we have something like this, Don't ask other people, just send it to me. Whatever price you want, I'll give you a 20% increase. You know, the customers behind me are very rich. Things that others don't dare to accept. , he dares to accept it.”

Seeing that I was a little anxious, he hurriedly said: "Sit down for a while, and I will prepare some money for you. This 1.2 million, even though my shop is small, there is still enough money in my account, so I will give it to you first."

I was worried about how to collect the money. Seeing that he was so cheerful, which was exactly what I wanted, I nodded and said, "That's good. I need money urgently. That will be troublesome."

Lao Hai nodded, called out, called the little girl outside, and sent her to pick up the 1.2 million cash check.

The girl looked at me in surprise and ran out without saying much. Lao Hai said again: "Master Wu, it's impossible for you to pour out just this one thing this time. Is there anything else you can do?" Do you want to keep the things? If you don’t mind, show me a few of them, Lao Hai.”

I didn't want to talk to him about this anymore, but when I said it, I remembered the two copper fishes owned by my third uncle, so I described them to him. When he heard this, his face changed, and he lowered his voice and asked me: "You really have This thing?"

I saw the change in his expression, thought it was a joke, and quickly asked: "Of course, boss, do you know the origin of this thing?"

Lao Hai shook his head with a strange expression. He thought for a while and said: "Master Wu, you must not tell anyone what I told you. Although I don't know the origin of these two fish, I do know There is a person who is offering a very high price to buy. You can never imagine how high the price is. Even a person like me who makes tens of millions in transactions a year would not dare to take his business. If you really have this I advise you not to do this, as it will only burn you if you are rich."

After hearing this, I asked, "Do you know who that person is? To be honest, I just want to know what this thing is used for. I don't really mind the rest."

Lao Hai shook his head: "I've never seen her before. She's a woman. Her surname is Huo. I don't know anything else about her. Moreover, according to our rules and regulations, even if we know the customer's information, we can't tell anyone about it."

Seeing how determined he was, I knew that asking further would only hit a wall, so I had no choice but to give up. The two chatted about other things, and then the check was delivered. After I checked that it was correct, I stood up and left, and the business was completed.
