Chapter 156 Buying Stones(1/2)
I am a person who can't bear it. Although it was already at the hotel last night at what time, I got up from the bed and rubbed my eyes at 8 o'clock in the morning. Instead of brushing my teeth and washing up, I stayed in the warm quilt and hugged the back of my head facing the ceiling. It was four million. I would never dream of seeing so much money. For a moment, I felt a little confused.
When I got up and went to the bathroom to wash my makeup, I stuffed my toothbrush into my mouth, and the phone still next to the pillow suddenly started to chirp.
I spit out my toothbrush and threw it into the teeth. I went back to the house and picked up the phone and saw that it was my mother who called me, mom."
"I'm still playing with Hangzhou? My mother's voice was a little unhappy: "What are you doing when you are slow? Didn't you say you'll be back in a few days? Hurry up. How many days are there today? School will start in two days. I don't know!"
Before I could take a picture of the bloodstone, I naturally couldn't go back, so I said, "I'll be in Beijing in two more days."
"Two days left? You won't pay your tuition back to school? Are you looking for a beating?"
"Oh, don't worry, you must go back before this anyway." After a few perfunctory words, I hung up the phone and continued to go back to the bathroom to brush my teeth. After calculating, time was indeed a bit tight. I am afraid that as soon as I finish my business, I will go to Beijing, and maybe I will be able to catch up with the return to school or the opening ceremony. After washing my face, I shook my head, alas. No matter, making money is important, let the rest of the matter be put aside.
I took out the security ticket under the pillow, which was wrinkled by me, put it in my arms, opened the door and turned to the room where Yan Wanru and Lianlian were, and knocked on the door gently. Dongdongdong. Dongdongdongdongdong, but there was no reply. I knew that they were still sleeping and did not disturb them anymore. I walked to the Industrial and Commercial Bank near the square, transferred the check money to the bank card account, exhaled, and then I felt at ease.
Based on the time I came back last night, I guess Yan Wanru will sleep until noon before waking up. Well, can I do something in the morning?
Before I could think about it, I had breakfast by the roadside, and walked to the bouldering pavilion near the square. As soon as I opened the door, I saw the owner and his wife busy greeting the three guests. I nodded to them, but didn't say anything, and looked at the bloodstone in the house.
Alas, it's so beautiful, not just ordinary beauty.
I feel that since I came to Lin'an City, I have been obsessed with this kind of blood-colored stone, especially the large blood-loaded carvings or seals that attract me the most.
Young man, are you here?" There was only one customer left there. Boss Yan freed up his time and said, "Where is Teacher Yan?"
I put down a seal in my hand and turned around and said, "Sister Yan is sleeping. It was too late to go back yesterday. But you got up so early."
Boss Yan pointed to the store: "There is no way; it's not common for us to get up early and go to bed late in business. Well, who are you here?"
"Oh, I just want to ask, when will the next auction in Guoshi Village be opened? Yesterday, Wei Bin and Liangzi made a fuss and made a fortune. I almost forgot the purpose of this trip. On the way back, I remembered that I hadn't asked the local villagers when the next auction will be.
Boss Yan was stunned and smiled and said, "You have made a lot of money this time, I thought you would leave today. Well, next time, I don't know much about this. Generally, auctions in Guoshi Village are every ten days and half a month, but there are also three days and five days. The key is to look at the situation in the mining area. If there are too many chicken blood raw stones on the mountain in the past two days, maybe they will be auctioned again tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and it may not be necessary.
I said it would take so long."
Boss Yan smiled: "The day before the auction starts, there will be villagers posting advertisements in the village. People like us who open shops in Lin'an also call us. If you and Teacher Yan still want to go, they are the same as before, I will call you to notify you, and it will not be delayed."
"Thank you so much."
"You're just a little help, don't be polite.
"By the way, if I bought the raw chicken blood stone and didn't want to open it on the spot with Guoshi Village, where would I go?"
Boss Yan thought: "Oh, you don't want so many people to see it, right? There are processing rooms in Guoshi Village and Lin'an, which are specially used to polish and carve stones for people, but a certain fee will be charged, which is usually calculated based on the size and weight of the stone. Well, if you want to calcify, you can actually come to me. Although there is no large cabinet-type cutting machine, there are ordinary cutting equipment in the studio behind my store. Haha, I don't charge you any money."
I smiled bitterly: "How can you be so sorry
"It's not a small matter, cutting a stone will take much time."
At this time, I saw two more customers coming to the store. I was afraid of delaying the business, so I thanked me and said goodbye and left.
On the way back, I remembered that Lianlian asked me to buy her a car. I knew she was joking, but it was also worth buying her some gifts. From Beijing to Xijiang, it was all thanks to Yan Wanru, gas money, hotel accommodation money. Not to mention that she was even scratched the car because of my relationship. Then, buying some things for her daughter would be considered a disguised change of love.
Thinking of this, I nodded slightly and walked to a nearby Fu Department Store.
It is worthy of being the origin of chicken blood stone. Several counters on the first floor of the commercial building sell stones, including chicken blood, Tianhuang, and the moist lera stone carvings in the pond.
Instead of stopping, I took the elevator to the area where the clothes were sold on the third floor, and I picked up and chose a few more expensive fashionable women's clothing, dresses, suspenders, and baseball caps. I bought two large bags according to Lianlian's body shape and figure. I paid the bill. I went downstairs with a plastic bag to prepare to go back to the hotel.
"Don't you sell bloodstones? Why don't you buy it? This was bought by my old man several years ago, and it's definitely true."
"Auntie, it's not a question of whether it's true or false. It's because the mall does not have this business and only sells it but does not charge it."
There was a voice coming from beside me, and I glanced casually without regard. I retracted my gaze and continued to walk towards the revolving door. But after a step, I suddenly braked under my feet, turned in shock, and looked tightly at the saleswoman and the old lady in her sixties. I saw that the old lady was holding a black box in her hand. She was covered with a layer of satin gauze on the outside, and inside the box was actually a square seal, with a lot of blood. It roughly took a look, which accounted for about 80% of the overall seal, which was definitely considered a medium-grade big red robe!
The old lady frowned and said, "Then where should I go?"
The salesperson thought for a moment and pointed to the square outside: "There is a bloodstone store there, you can go there and ask, they will definitely collect it.
The old lady said oh, took a pack of silk cloth, and left with her seal.
I followed without saying a word, waited for the department store, and walked to the old lady: "Auntie, ask me something, please
The old lady looked at me, and the policeman was stunned and clasped the box tightly. What should I prepare?”
I said, "You want to take action on this seal, right? I want to buy it. Can you let me take a closer look first?" Yan Wanru came to Lin'an and looked for Dahongpao day and night. However, the price was too outrageous. If you had the chance to collect one for her, I would certainly not give up.
"Do you want it?" Husband saw that I was still a student. The old lady was stunned. Do you have any money?
I smiled and said, "If you don't have money, I won't ask you that anymore."
The old lady looked up and down at me a few times. She looked around and finally fell to a row of chairs in the square, pointing to it and said, "Go and see." There are many couples taking children around the chairs. I think the old lady is afraid that I will steal her things, so it is safer if there are many people.
I said goodbye, walked over with her, and helped her sit down slowly.
"See, let's see." The old lady didn't leave her hands, but just held her hands.
I lifted the silk cloth, pulled off the buckle on the box, gently lifted the lid with my fingernail, touched the curtain of the bloodstone with my fingertips, and then looked over and over again. Well, I can't make it wrong. The serious Changhua chicken blood Dahongpao, but the blood volume was a little different from what I saw just now. One side of the seal was very bloody, accounting for more than 80%, but the blood on the other three sides was slightly worse. Overall, this is Dahongpao with 75% blood volume. The chicken blood was very thick, much better than Boss Yan's square. The pool was thinner and better than Boss Yan's piece. Well, it was a fine product and a good thing.
"Are you going to pay for it?" I was also afraid that someone was interested to see me and after seeing it, I quickly covered the box and asked the old lady to put it in her arms.
The old lady looked at me with uncertainty: Little classmate, do you really want to buy it? I said, "Yes, can there be fake?"
"Then." The old lady thought for a while and said, "You give me one million, please give me one million."
I had thought that the old lady was not good at it, and she was thinking of picking up bargains. As a result, when I heard her price, I knew that she should also know a lot about bloodstone. Or someone had pointed out the price to her. Well, one million is the average market price. However, since Dahongpao is really rare, this price is not expensive, and this chapter is pretty good. Why do you think of selling it?"
"Hey, my eldest grandson is going to get married. Isn't it? The house price is too high and I can't afford it. Later, I thought of the seal my old man bought. If I sell it, a house will be settled." Lin'an's house price is obviously much cheaper than Beijing.
"That's it," I bargained: "Can you be cheaper?"
The old lady shook her head firmly: "I have a good house, one million yuan, I can't afford it if I don't know if what she said is the truth.
After grinding for a while, she saw the old lady saying she wanted to go to the Bloodstone Shop to ask, and I said, "Okay. One million is one million, well, you go to the bank to transfer money with me." This chapter is indeed not expensive. If she went to another place to ask, it would probably be mine.
The old lady smiled knowingly: "Okay."
When I came out of the bank, I had an extra black box in my hand, put it in my pocket, and I walked back to the hotel.
In the corridor, I found that the door of Yan Wanru's house was half open, so I didn't go back to my room and walked over and knocked on the door.
"Enter, the door is not locked again. Yan Wanru and Lianlian are playing cards on the sand. I saw two white notes on Sister Yan's forehead. Eighty time he lost to her daughter. She threw down a spade. Yan Wanru looked at the bag in my hand suspiciously. Hey, no one agreed to knock on the door just now. I thought you were sleeping and going out?
I closed the door, "Well, I went out and bought something.
Yan Wanru pulled off the note on her face: "Don't play anymore, you can watch TV with your brother Jing.
Lian Lian refused and said angrily: "Mom is cheating and can't afford to lose. Oh, you should put the note back and continue playing." After that, she turned around and waved to me: "Brother Jing, you are here to play too. Whoever loses and who sticks the note? Wait? What are you holding in your hand? Didn't you go shopping and buy clothes? Ahhh, don't you call me? You're so bad!"
I smiled bitterly: "I knocked on the door in the morning, and you two are still sleeping, but I didn't hear it."
Lianlian jumped out of bed and ran over in slippers: "What clothes did you buy for yourself? Let's take a look."
"Lianlian, don't mess around, can you be honest for a while?" Yan Wanru glared at her.
I smiled and handed her two bags of bags, "It's okay, let me
Lianlian screamed in surprise: "Ah? I bought it for me?"
Yan Wanru looked at me with a blame: "Xiao Jing. What are you doing? Spend money indiscriminately."
Lianlian was very happy. She grabbed the bag and then turned her back and jumped onto the bed, making a big flick. She took out the clothes from the bag one by one and spread them onto the sheets, "Wow! This is the latest model this year! Mom! I saw it when I went for a walk with my grandma in Beichen last time! I wanted to buy it at that time, but my grandma thought it was expensive. I disagreed, ah, it's great, this is my favorite style, wow! And this skirt is also a famous brand! It seems to cost more than a thousand. "Oh! This suspender is also a big brand."
I really don’t know whether the brand is or not. Anyway, I’m picking up the most expensive ones in the mall to buy.
Lian Lian waved her finger and calculated, and she was shocked, "How much does it cost to have so much clothes?" I said, "I don't have much money, you can try it later. I'll ask them to change it if it fits. If it doesn't work, I'll ask them to change it."
Yan Wanru sighed and touched her daughter's head: "Isn't thank you Xiaojing yet."
Lianlian smiled, "Thank you, Brother Jing. You are so generous!"
Yan Wanru looked at me complainingly: "Don't buy things randomly next time. You are still in school, so it's not easy to make some money." After a while, seeing Lianlian trying her new hat in front of the mirror, she said: "You play with Xiaojing, I'll go out to find Dahongpao. Oh, I haven't seen it for two days, I guess there's no chance.
I remembered that I forgot something, "Sister Yan, stop being poisonous
Yan Wanru blinked strangely: "What?"
I took out the black box in my pocket, and I lifted the silk cloth on it and opened it, "I bought it for you. Do you think this one is OK?"
"Big Hong Pao!" Yan Wanru was stunned, raised her arm and held it in her hand, looking at it repeatedly: "How could it be? I have been looking for it for so long but I haven't been willing to take action. Where did you get it from?
Lianlian also looked over blankly: "I'm good, Dahongpao?"
I said, "According to this, when I was buying clothes for Lianlian, I saw an aunt holding a seal and wanted to sell it. The salesperson didn't accept it. So I went over and asked the price. The price was quite appropriate, so I bought it. Well, do you think this chapter is OK?"
Yan Wanru took a breath, "It's not just okay. Whether it's blood volume or pool, it's close to the top-grade Dahongpao. It's many times better than Boss Yan's light-colored blood seal. It's also brighter and wider than ordinary seals. Well, okay, it's great. We've been following Lin'an for so long, and this seal is the best."
"Haha, as long as you like it, I'm afraid that if you buy it, it won't be your appetite."
"To be honest, I didn't expect to buy such a good seal before I came. I would be content with Boss Yan's side. Thank you. By the way, how much did I buy it?" Yan Wanru looked up and stared at my eyes: One hundred two? One hundred three? One hundred five?"
"Uh, not that much, just a million
Yan Wanru was stunned: Can't it be so cheap, right? It's only one million?"
I nodded and said, "The aunt seemed to be in a hurry to buy a house. Besides, this is a private transaction, no store rent, no water and electricity bills, and no taxes, so it is naturally much cheaper than a blood stone shop." We and I saw a similar-quality Dahongpao seal in a store in Lin'an. The other shop owner Lion opened his mouth and asked for one million and a million yuan when he came up.
Yan Wanru was not very sure: "It's really one million? Don't miss your Sister Yan?"
I smiled helplessly: "It's true."
Yan Wanru smiled and said, "The main reason is that you are too polite. Do you remember the paperweight last time? You have to sell me for free. Haha, I'm scared now. Let's go to the bank first to pay the money. Well, I'll give it to you for one million and a hundred million. This thing is worth the price."
I looked stern: "Sister Yan, are you so sad about me?"
