Chapter 0439 – Abdomen has a dry belly (II)
“Brother Zhuang, more than two hundred thousand dollars to buy this thing, is it worth it?”
Yang Hao see Zhuang Rui lovingly rubbed up and down this tooth carving Buddha, some puzzled asked, in his impression, like these tourist attractions sold by the contraptions, most of them are fake, Zhuang Rui this under the shelling out of two hundred thousand, may be that Li Yunshan to slaughter it!
As the saying goes: hometown hometown, a shot in the back, come to Burma travelers, but also counts the most Chinese, to say that Li Yunshan will treat Chinese people differently, anyway, Yang Hao does not believe, businessman by profit, slaughter is their own people.
“Worth, of course it is worth, so big and so complete ivory carvings, in the country are rare, these years the price of tooth carving handicrafts also rose very much, bring back may be able to double it!”
Zhuang Rui did not dare to say more, if he said that this thing test out its age heritage to, can be worth seven or eight million, that will absolutely Yang Hao to the shock, Zhuang Rui heart have a feeling, like such a large volume of objects, some domestic information, there will certainly be recorded.
“Hey, Brother Zhuang, you this eye, really no say, this money is also too easy to make a little ……”
Yang Hao spat out his tongue and said enviously, although he and Zhuang Rui did not know for a long time, and also met so three times, but every time they met, Zhuang Rui’s fortune was like a rocket, bursting upwards.
The two are chatting, Li Yunshan hurriedly ran back, holding a bamboo preparation of rectangular box, the size of just to fit the carved tooth Buddha, this is a Burmese specialty of the bamboo box, a box to thirty or forty U.S. dollars, is Li Yunshan bought with the gift to Zhuang Rui.
Zhuang Rui hand in hand, and Li Yunshan together, carefully will be the tooth carving Buddha, horizontal into the bamboo box, and then stuffed around the sponge and waste newspaper, bamboo box itself has elasticity, in this way, even if some collision occurs, will not damage the objects inside.
“Little brother, you take good ……” after packing properly, Li Yunshan pushed the box to Zhuang Rui, handing over the invoice he had just issued, the above is in Burmese, Zhuang Rui can’t read it, after receiving the invoice, he handed it over to Peng Fei.
Peng Fei took a look at the invoice, nodded, and handed Li Yunshan the 18,000 US dollars that he had already counted just now, and picked up the box from the ground, the bamboo box had a carrying handle on top, making it very convenient to hold.
Carrying this big box, there is no way to shop again, well in the Great Pagoda has finished the tour, Zhuang Rui and Yang Hao and Peng Fei, took a cab back to the hotel.
Myanmar New Year jadeite fair is scheduled to open on January 1, and most of the domestic and foreign businessmen, are today rushed to Yangon, Zhuang Rui into the hotel, and then see a lot of familiar faces, the gambling circle is so big, the well-known jewelry company is that a few, want to run into are difficult.
And from the domestic wool merchants greetings, Zhuang Rui head into the elevator, he feels he has become a giant panda, anyone who wants to come to touch a little, just now even a full of perfume smell of fat women, but also want to give him a hug, but Zhuang Rui gave a shock.
“Peng Fei, your kid is not decent! The boss is surrounded by people, and you don’t say come over to relieve yourself ……”
After bidding farewell to Yang Hao and returning to the hotel room, Zhuang Rui looked at Peng Fei with dissatisfaction and said, just now this guy carried a suitcase and ran fast, but fortunately he knew to guard the elevator door and wait for himself.
“Hehehe, boss, according to my analysis, that woman has absolutely no malice towards you.”
Maybe it’s because his sister got resettled, Peng Fei also talked a little bit more than before in these days, and occasionally joked with Zhuang Rui, he respected Zhuang Rui in his heart, but on the surface, he didn’t call his boss in his mouth all day long like Hao Long did, which is also an attitude of Peng Fei after recognizing someone.
“Alright, cut the crap and take out this tooth carving! I’m going to take a shower first ……”
Zhuang Rui a little impatient to unveil the secrets among the tooth carvings, just this out trip, all sticky and uncomfortable, at that moment went to the bathroom to take a cool shower.
When Zhuang Rui came out, the tooth carving Buddha statue has been placed on the table in the living room, Peng Fei is carefully observed.
“You kid, you actually didn’t sweat much after running for half a day ……”
Zhuang Rui enviously looked at Peng Fei, his first time to see him, it was at several degrees below zero, this kid wears so thin, also do not see cold, now this hot day, but also do not see him sweat.
“Brother Zhuang, this thing can really be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars?”
Peng Fei just circled around this tooth carving a few times, but it is the shape of the special a little bit just, how he can not see, this can not eat or drink the stuff, how so valuable.
“Hundreds of thousands? Oh, Peng Fei, there’s a zero to add after ……”
Zhuang Rui smiled triumphantly, as the saying goes, the chaos of the world of gold in the world of antiques, in the time of war and chaos, these things are worthless, with are too cumbersome, but in the present day, that can be priceless, in short, Zhuang Rui will not be able to sell this thing out.
“A few …… millions?”
Peng Fei lips hemmed and hawed a bit, a little unbelievable look at this Buddha carving, he kind of know Zhuang Rui’s money is how to come, this is simply more profitable than drug trafficking ah! And there is no risk, at this time even Peng Fei heart, are pondering, they should not also learn the knowledge of antiques, after all, this security can not do a lifetime.
“Well, but this thing I’m not for sale, domestic estimates are panned to get out a few pieces ……”
Zhuang Rui at this time has put the attention to the tooth carving above, he was thinking, how can that piece of repair into the “door” and then open, will be inside the wax pill to take out, of course, Zhuang Rui do not want to damage the Buddha carving, or directly thrown on the ground to listen to a sound, something will come out.
“Zhuang old brother, I heard that you went out a good object back? You also do not say shouting old brother together to go ……”
Zhuang Rui is fully concentrated on this tooth carving when the ear suddenly sounded Song Jun’s voice, looked up, but found that Song Jun and Fatty Ma do not know when into the house, just rang the doorbell and Peng Fei opened the door sound, Zhuang Rui actually did not hear at all.
“One of you two is afraid of heat, one is afraid of walking, I can’t shout at anyone!” Zhuang Rui laughed bitterly, but he did not say that he would still be afraid of insecurity!
“Good stuff, really good stuff, such a big tooth carving, really rare, and look at this shape and tooth quality, should be the contraptions of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Zhuang old brother, you pick up this leak is not small ah! How what good things, are you encountered ah!”
Song Jun took a magnifying glass, around the tooth carving of their own look half a day, and with the eyes to measure up to Zhuang Rui, their little brother is simply God, wherever you can encounter good things, this tooth carving is obviously the old domestic objects, actually can also be his in Burma to find.
Zhuang Rui was Song Jun said to cry and laugh, no good reason back: “That is you lazy, this thing is not to say that I, is to be you see, will certainly buy it, Song brother if you first go to shop the Great Pagoda, maybe this thing is nothing I do!”
“Time and fate, it should be yours, no one can snatch it away, but Zhuang old brother, how about you transfer this thing to me? The old man will definitely like it when he sees it ……”
Song Jun eyes turn, would like to let Zhuang Rui sell this object to him, seven or eight million for Song Jun, is nothing, some time ago due to the old man’s health, Song family’s industry made some adjustments, a lot of investment are collected back, now Song Jun hands of free money, at least there are a few hundred million.
“Brother Song, you can’t even think about this, my courtyard still lacks these things! By the way, Grandpa Song likes calligraphy and painting, it has nothing to do with this! Don’t pull the tiger’s skin to make a big flag ……”
Zhuang Rui nonchalantly rejected Song Jun, he now regretted that manuscript and Tang Pak Fu’s “Li Duan Duan Tu” sold to Song Jun, Zhuang Rui now realize that, want to get those objects is how difficult, the domestic antique market, all filled with fake things.
“You this kid, forget it, but you promised me that jade, but must find ah!”
“When did I promise you ah? You are not being unreasonable!” Zhuang Rui some helpless, this Song Jun are more than forty years of age, it is estimated that the children are in high school, but also a princeling, playing a rogue, they can not eat.
“Come on, can come across a quasi to you to stay still not good?”
Zhuang Rui mouth said good words, the two sent out of the room, he now has no heart and Song Jun fight mouth, tooth carving in the mysterious wax pill, let him really a little itchy.
“Boss, this place doesn’t look like it’s touched, otherwise it wouldn’t be so regular, right?”
Seeing Zhuang Rui was vigorously surveying the armpit area of the tooth carving figure, Peng Fei also came over to look at it, his eyes were also very poisonous, although the mending traces were already very faint, but Peng Fei still saw that the shape didn’t seem like it was bumped out.
“Hm? You can see it too? This indeed does not look like a crack that was bumped out, rather it looks like it was dug out, kind of like a small door that was intentionally opened out, ancient people often like to hide treasures inside the belly of the enshrined statue of Buddha, do you think there will be something inside this as well?”
Zhuang Rui glanced at Peng Fei, deliberately taking the language to guide him, Zhuang Rui did not want to hide the things inside from Peng Fei to take them out, so he had to have a suitable reason.
