Chapter 11 The Great Fortune
The three lame families have a lot of knowledge and hundreds of years of ancestral appraisal skills. They have been fully demonstrated at this moment. They have introduced the characteristics of this "Han Xizai Night Banquet" in a very detailed way. Even the copy collected in the Palace Museum in T North was taken out and commented on it.
After the lame third said that, Xiang Qiang and the three old men were all stunned. The other old man, as soon as Xue Xiang opened the painting, had a roar, his head tilted, and he leaned on the sofa, unconscious.
In theory, the old man fainted. Xiang Qiang and the other three old men should have rushed to see what was going on with the fainted old man. But the four of them did not move, and they all stared at the painting with their eyes, as if they were stationary.
Xue Xiang couldn't see it anymore, so he reached out to the old man's Jingmen and Yu Pillow, and then rubbed his hands for a few minutes. The old man woke up slowly. After the old man woke up, Mi glared at the eyes a few times, and suddenly, he rushed towards the coffee table. As soon as he squeezed an old man, he snatched the magnifying glass from another old man, and he was so full that he could not get into the painting.
After a while, Xue Xiang finally became impatient: "Hi, I said, "I've been reading for a long time. There's no one who understands you. The person next to me said clearly the ins and outs of the painting, the characteristics, style, and even the source. What are you doing? To be honest, I'm tight now, so I'm borrowing some money from you and turn around, and let you help keep it for ten days and half a month, and by the way, you can also enjoy the auspicious aura of this national treasure. But I don't have time to procrastinate with you. I can't do it here. I'll go to another house to ask, there's no worries about not being able to suppress this thing. I'm still waiting outside."
While talking, Xue Xiang pulled a few old men back to the sofa and picked up the paintings on his own.
Xue Xiang was about to put the scroll into the mahogany box, but Xiang Qiang held it down: "Brother, you are too anxious, you have to let us discuss it some time." Seeing such a treasure, Xiang Qiang spoke with tremolo.
But Xiang Qiang has been running this Rongbaotang for a long time. Naturally, he is somewhat immersed in antiques. The old man who fainted just now was the anti-cave figure in Rongbaotang's identification of calligraphy and painting. He was dizzy and robbed the old man just now. Xiang Qiang estimated that the introduction of the third brother just now was not mixed with water.
Sure enough, Xiang Qiang threw a glance at the old man who fainted before. The old man nodded his head tremblingly. A big rock fell to the ground in Xiang Qiang's heart. "I heard from Brother Xue's tone just now. It seems that he wants to live. According to the rules of our industry, we can't just be ten days and half a month, at least one month, and the monthly breath is eight minutes. Of course, Brother Xue and I hit it off at first sight. Of course, it's a different matter. Even if the monthly breath is seven minutes and five minutes, I don't know how much this treasure of Brother Xue wants to be?"
"We are not selling things, I am the seller, you are the buyer; but as things, there are no pawn shops that don't bid. Instead, I'm calling me like a guy, Kaizi, and I want to kill him. To be honest, our guys are not afraid of this. You can't do it here, and you still have a next house. Besides, I'm doing it anyway, and I don't give it any money. I'll pay less interest at that time. Anyway, it's only four or five days, and my money will arrive. In the past few days, I'll go to the casino and the carriage. Just watch it, just enough for me to play."
Xue Xiangyu took advantage of the pretext of capturing, but Xiang Qiang immediately fell into the trap.
To put it in detail, Xiang Qiang could not miss the trap. Xiang Qiang is now fully aware of the level of the painting in front of him and which level. Not to mention how beautiful the scroll is, he can be hidden in the Palace Museum by just a copy. You should know how precious this authentic product was originally. It is not worth mentioning to describe it as the four words "The Great Treasure of the Country". If you want to say that the Rongbaotang has been born in the past thirty years, has you ever seen such a valuable treasure among such a national treasure?
Just because Rongbaotang does not have a treasure that can suppress the scene, he was secretly sneered as a nouveau riche by colleagues from many pawn shops. Today, when he encountered "Han Xizai Night Banquet", Xiang Qiang almost thought it was a gift from God, so how could he let it go?
Previously, Xiang Qiang was thinking about trying to lower the price as much as possible. At this moment, he only wanted to offer a high price to make the prodigal son mess around in the casino and the horse farm. In just one month, the prodigal son could not pay the money and the treasure would be automatically taken over to himself.
Of course, Xiang Qiang was not thinking of taking advantage of tricks, but Xue Xiang's momentum and tone of speaking made him unable to express his gratitude. Seeing Xue Xiang shouting that he was visiting the casino and getting off the horse farm again, maybe he was the red young master on the mainland, otherwise could ordinary big circles have such a state of mind?
Although Hong Kong Island is under the British Empire at this time, it is less than twenty years after its return. These mixed clubs are not rich and powerful people. When they reach 97, they will go abroad with a bag. Their foundation and power all come from Hong Kong Island. After going abroad, they may immediately become side dishes. Therefore, it is reasonable for Xiang Qiang to have such concerns.
After the decision was made, Xiang Qiang pretended to be generous, slapped the table and said, "Brother Xue, you and I meet today, just because I am destined to meet you. How can I let you go for a waste? According to the words of the people in the capital, I have to make a price of three million at a time. What do you think, brother?"
"Isn't it a bit too much? I can't spend these four days, so it's a little bit?" Xue Xiangqiang suppressed the movement in his heart, frowned slightly, and made a reluctant expression.
"Not much, what more, so much more. In the past four or five days, your brother always has to have fun. Are you afraid that the interest rate is too high? Otherwise, I will give you another point. No, let you get a little bit, make up a lucky number, calculate your six points, and make your brother have a great chance in the casino." Xiang Qiang said happily, but he was eager to lose all his energy.
"What do you say? I seem to care about this little bit of profitable person? The interest is worth giving up, and it's not a joke." Xue Xiang made up his mind that since he was a playboy, Suxing's playboy was just pretending to be the end.
"Brother can't speak, Brother Xue Haihan, that's all. Wait for a moment, I'll ask someone to write a check for you, Standard Chartered Bank tickets, pay the tickets at the time of seeing the tickets..." Xiang Qiang was so excited that he saw Xue Xiang frowned and patted his mouth gently, and smiled: "Brother, I'm talking too much, I forgot that I've seen the world..."
Xue Xiang waved his hand, as if he didn't want to listen to his nonsense.
Xiang Qiang was shameless and accused Xue Xiang of guilt. He called four old men to go into the backstage with him. Soon, he walked back alone with spring breeze, holding two tickets in his hand. When he got closer, he reached out and handed them to Xue Xiang.
Xue Xiang took it and saw that it was a check filled with three million yuan, one as a ticket. He was not polite, so he stuffed it into his shirt pocket. Then he pushed the wooden box over and told Xiang Qiang to keep it well. He called the lame third brother and strode away.
"Brother Third, I've been holding back all the way."
As soon as he entered the hospital hall, the third lame brother spoke.
"What do you mean?" Xue Xiang turned his head.
The lame third brother approached Xue Xiang, covered half of his face with his hand, and whispered: "That's right, is the short guy who talked to us about business before, is there any brain problem?"
"How did you say this?" Xue Xiangqi said.
The lame third son sneered: "I have seen this pawn shop when I was a child. I can't help but give it to the price higher. I've used 'bare boards and no hair, a torn coat' to deal with it. Even if you took the phoenix crown of Cixi, the old lady, and it can be said to be a chamber pot, but I have never seen that short man like this."
When Xue Xiang heard this, he patted the lame third on the shoulder, laughed, and walked upstairs without saying a word, making the lame third inexplicable.
In fact, since Xue Xiang left Rongbaotang, his heart has never calmed down. I remember the first time I felt like this, I used the repaired porcelain to exchange for 2,000 yuan for Chen Kaizhen. At that time, Xue Xiang was really happy and felt that eating meat all day long was no problem. Later, he bought antiques, collected huge amounts of New Year's money, and had special allowances, and Xue Xiang gradually lost interest in money.
It was not until he was about to treat Dabao that Xue Xiang felt embarrassed about the money again!
At this moment, although Xue Xiang had already guessed that Xiang Qiang had made a big mistake, he still couldn't help but be ecstatic. He never expected that a painting would be exchanged for a huge sum of three million yuan. Even though he kept saying it was a national treasure, the price was too amazing!
You should know that these three million Hong Kong dollars are equivalent to a full million RMB!
What is the concept of a million yuan in the Republic at this time? It is tantamount to astronomical numbers!
In fact, the reason why Xue Xiang was so excited was because he didn't understand what the development status of Hong Kong's economy was at this time. Not to mention anything else, the monthly salary of the taxi driver he drove was more than 1,000 yuan. It was more than ten times higher than that of him, a special hero, and it was more than ten times higher than that of ordinary mainland workers at this time.
Perhaps it is not very intuitive to compare salary. So let me take the familiar Hong Kong movies. The comedy movie "Half a Cat" by the three brothers of Xu Guanwen, which was just released this year, has been sold for nearly 8 million yuan. Compared with the box office revenue of a movie, the monetary value of this top ten famous paintings handed down in China, and compared with the box office revenue of a movie, these three million yuan is not so eye-catching.

Xue Xiang came upstairs and saw Gu Changdao standing outside the ward with his arms in his arms. When he asked, he realized that Dabao's operation had been completed and was extremely successful. Another good news was obtained. Xue Xiang was happy and patted Gu Changdao's shoulder and pushed open the ward. However, when Dabao was still sleeping, the oxygen mask on his face was taken off. Liu Ying'er was wiping Dabao's body.
Vice President Wang is giving Dabao massage to facilitate blood circulation and avoid bedsores. Although the ward is equipped with air conditioning, Vice President Wang is still sweating, and the front lapel is wet, which shows that he is desperate...
