Chapter 48 Scented Shoes

At night, the fat man in the light of a sheet of money, counting over and over again, but is not clear, it is not his fault, I first saw so much money also confused.

Fatty simply do not count, light up a cigarette while smoking and said to me: “Old Hu you let me say what you good it, you are smart for a long time, confused ah, how can you say that this money is borrowed, but good, but also have to that American girl interest, I think it is as good as the two of us to withdraw, withdraw to the south of the old home, so that she can never find, anxious to death her.”

I said: “You are too unproductive, this little money is nothing, in the future I will take you to pour out a few pieces of licensed goods, casually change, but also enough to pay her money, we are now missing is this capital, with money we can not worry about what to eat tomorrow, there are funds, you can buy some good equipment, and now we start to re-patch the other open, well prepared for the preparation, I have to pour a big bucket. ”

The two of us together, the deep mountains and old forests hidden in the tomb is not so good to find, but also not when can find it, these money although more, but also afraid of sitting on the mountain.

Fatty is a more business-minded people, he felt that the big gold teeth that trade is good, dumping antiques is definitely a profitable industry, especially sold to the foreigners, but now often come to China’s foreigners have learned to be more sophisticated, not too good to cheat, but as long as there are really good things, there is no worry that they can not afford to spend money.

Fatty said: “Old Hu you say we invest some money to open a store how? Receive some antiques and artifacts to sell, maybe do a good job to save the dumping, dumping although the money fast, but really fucking not easy to do.”

I nodded and said: “This idea is really good, fat man you this head is still very bright well, now we have the funds, can start from a small place, by the way, learn some knowledge of antique identification.”

So everywhere looking for store, there is no suitable place, and then thought that it is not necessary to find a store, first get something in the Panjiayuan stall it, Panjiayuan is characterized by miscellaneous, ancient and modern Chinese and foreign large and small, what things have, but very valuable Ming ware is relatively rare, that are privately to deal with, and rarely put on the market to sell.

We started by the big gold tooth instructions, in the suburbs to collect some of the former Qing dynasty pots and bowls altar pots, the old money, snuff bottles, old pocket watches and other small pieces, back in the antique market to buy.

Maybe my life is not doing business life, vision is not allowed to collect things when the worthless things as a treasure to collect, to collect valuable things, they are not allowed to see, as ordinary objects to sell, has not been how to earn money, but also lost a lot of money.

However, we received these gadgets, did not spend too much money, the loss of some money is nothing, mainly to practice eyesight, long some learning, in the Panjiaoyuan mixed for a long time, only to know that this line of work is really too much too deep, and even more complex than feng shui, not overnight can learn.

That said, this day, almost to noon, the antique market seems a little cold, not too many people, I and the fat man with the big gold teeth around together to play fast.

Is playing hard, suddenly came to the front of a person, standing in front of our stalls to turn around to turn around to not go, the fat man thought it was to look at the thing, asked: “how, this master, you see what?”

The man stammered, “Not even look, do you accept antiques?”

I raised my head to look at some, see that person thirty-six or seventy-seven years of age, purple skin, it seems to be often in the sun to do farm work, dressed in the dirt, carrying a broken purse, a mouth of loess high slopes accent.

I thought this person can have what antiques, and the big gold teeth looked at, the big gold teeth is a connoisseur, although the appearance of this old township, dirt, but did not dare to underestimate him, so I made a wink, signaling me to stabilize him, asked to understand before saying.

I took out my cigarettes and handed one to the old countryman, lit him up and asked him to sit down and talk.

The old township is obviously not seen anything in the world, and do not know much about socializing, sitting on the matzah I handed him, tightly covering the broken purse, did not say anything.

I looked at his broken purse, thinking that this buddy will not be a bucket of it, as if he did something wrong, or he has something valuable in this bag, I try to put the tone of voice to calm down, asked: “old brother, come on, don’t be polite, smoking ah, this is a cloud of cigarettes, how do you call it?”

The old folks said, “Call a Li Chunlai.” He may not be used to sitting on the horse zipper, push the horse zipper away, squatting on the ground, as soon as he squatted, he looked much more relaxed, and the action of smoking is also a little more skillful.

Dajinya and fat two people pretend to continue to play cards, this line is like this, talk about the time can not be crowded, for one thing, this is the rule, for fear of scaring the patron away, generally want to bid on antiques, are more nervous, for fear of being targeted and robbed.

I smoked while smiling and asked: “So you are your name Li ah, see you older than me, I call you a brother, Chunlai brother, you just asked us to accept antiques, how is it, you have a Mingqi want to go out?”

Li Chunlai puzzled: “What Ming ware?”

I look at the original is a vegetable head ah, so directly ask him: “Is not what antiques and other things want to sell? Can you let me see.”

Li Chunlai looked around, whispered: “Hungry for a shoe, how much money can you give?”

I heard angry enough, your broken shoes still want to sell money, his mother’s reverse post money I’m afraid no one wants, not to say that then thought, here may not be so simple, then patiently asked: “What shoes? Whose shoes?”

Li Chunlai see me as more kind, bold and a little bit, then the purse pulled open a slit, let me look inside, I stretched my neck to see, Li Chunlai’s broken purse there is only an ancient three-inch Golden Lotus wearing embroidered shoes.

Li Chunlai did not wait for me to take a closer look, and then hurriedly pulled the broken bag closed, as if I took a look, the shoe will fly like.

I said you have to, you take it out to let me see, I have not seen it clearly, where did you get this shoe?

Li Chunlai said: “Boss, you want to say a price, other than even do not care.”

I said: “Chunlai brother, you have to let me take a look in the hand ah, do not see clearly how to open the price?” I lowered my voice again and said, “Are you afraid of the crowd? Or I invite you to go to the front of the museum, eat the whole meatballs of mutton dumplings, I often go to that dumpling house to talk business, quiet very quiet, then I see if it is really a good thing, the price we can negotiate, you see okay?”

Li Chunlai heard of eating mutton filled dumplings, gluttony swallowed saliva: “Very good, we do not bask in the sun under the warmth of the day, there is something, such as eating a sour soup dumplings and then talk about it.”
