The old woman misses people when she sees things.
He picked up the cigar box, sighed softly, and said:
"I can't give this box to you. I keep it as a souvenir. It was originally placed in the Palace of Fontainebleau. My husband used an oil painting and a donation of 100,000 francs to replace it. He likes to smoke cigars when he has nothing to do. Now
Okay, I finally smoked myself out."
"...Lung cancer?" Su Yehao asked.
The old woman from his grandfather's neighbor nodded, sighed again, and said: "I just found out that I have terminal cancer, and there is no way to treat it even if I have money. I guess you won't be able to use this cigar box, and you will spend the rest."
Take it away. In fact, there are many new and old suits. The custom-made suits cost tens of thousands of francs. The style is a bit old-fashioned and not suitable for your age. I plan to donate them all."
Su Yehao was speechless, pointed to the box, and asked, "Give me all the things in the box?"
"Well, watches need to be used frequently, and I can't wear them, otherwise they will break. I originally planned to donate them together with the suits, but when I called the charity staff, they heard that they were clothes and so on, and they were very kind.
It’s so bad that I’m not even willing to come to pick it up. It’s not like a formal institution at all. Although my husband has worn most of them, they were quite expensive when he bought them. Don’t be dissatisfied. They should still be worth some money now.”
The woman just finished speaking.
Mr. Tang came over in a wheelchair, picked up a wooden box, opened it, read it, and said with a smile:
"Patek Philippe 2499, I also have one. It's quite valuable."
Obviously I know it's not cheap.
But the old woman looked indifferent and told her: "It's not needed anyway, and it's a waste to keep it in my hand. Instead of feeding the wolves, it's better to give it to others, lest the charity is not done, but others take advantage of it. I feel sad in my heart."
uncomfortable."
Mr. Tang also didn't take it seriously. Those who didn't have enough money had already taken it lightly.
Tang's hospitals and pharmaceutical companies have annual net profits of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars. If they were listed on the market, they would have a market value of two billion Hong Kong dollars, and more than half of the shares would be in the hands of Mr. Tang.
So he just said to Su Yehao: "Xiao Hao, just take it when Auntie gives it to you. I remember there are some abalones and sea cucumbers at home. You can give them to her later to honor her and make soup for her."
For Hong Kong people, a bowl of soup is always indispensable in life.
The woman said with a smile: "What about filial piety? I think I'm still young, don't call me old..."
I received the "little gift" in a daze and put it directly in the car after returning to my old house.
Invite each other to have dinner together at noon.
Su Yehao happened to have a reason, so he went to find Nong Qingying in the afternoon, went hiking at Longbei, and took a drive to relax.
In consideration of conserving energy, I had to turn around and walk back.
After hiking for more than 40 minutes, the two of them started to go down the mountain. During this period, they received a call from Xiao Nizi. Su Yehao was vague, saying that he had something to do at night and could not have dinner together.
Nong Qingying sweated a lot, and his gray tank top had water stains.
She waited for Su Yehao to hang up the phone, wiped her sweat and joked: "The girl called you and asked you to have a big dinner tonight?"
"My father's partner's daughter is also studying at the University of Hong Kong. You see, I'm so handsome, talented and rich, so it's inevitable that I'm popular. The girls chasing me can line up from here to Tsim Sha Tsui, and I can't stop them.
My matchmaker almost broke the threshold of my house, so you have to be nicer to me."
Interrupted by Su Yehao, Nong Qingying smiled and said calmly:
"Anyway, I've been married before, and it's hard for me to marry a matchmaker again, unless I find an old rich man who doesn't mind this kind of thing. Thinking about it carefully, I might as well live with you, and I'm tired of being criticized.
One day your family forces you to get married and find a beautiful and rich young lady, then I will go to London to live."
The two of them have been together for a while, so it's time to talk about the future.
After Su Yehao heard this, he immediately replied: "Have you thought about it? Didn't you promise me that you would give birth to a child named Tang and snatch my grandpa's property for us? How nice would it be to lie down and count the money together?"
"Haha, are you serious? I thought you were joking. I don't want to have a baby so early and my figure will be out of shape."
It was easier to go down the mountain. Nong Qingying walked briskly, stepping on the dirt path with his long legs, holding hands with Su Yehao.
Su Yehao had never thought about getting married anyway, so he said decisively at this time: "In order to keep you by my side, if they urge me to get married, I will definitely refuse."
Nong Qingying thought that Su Yehao was as young as he looked, so he said: "At your age, you often think that relationships are simple and that whoever you are with will last forever. As someone who has been there, I can only say that as time goes by, relationships will change."
It will always fade, don’t think too simply.”
"Xiaoying, you're not much older than me. Maybe my mental age is more mature than yours. Don't worry, as long as you don't leave, I will definitely not leave you first."
It's hard to avoid feeling a little guilty when saying this.
The main reason is that I have already stepped into several boats now, and I don't know how Nong Qingying will view this matter when he finds out.
So Su Yehao secretly took the vaccination and told him in a joking tone:
"My dad has three concubines, and my grandpa has more than one woman in his family. Maybe I inherited their genes, which caused me to be a little more carefree, but I definitely don't have the personality to forget my old love when I have a new love."
Nong Qingying was smart and sensed something was wrong in these words. He looked curiously at Su Yehao, who had a calm face, and asked:
"Can this thing be inherited? Think about it, when we first met, when you threatened me on the yacht, you really looked experienced. You are completely the second generation ancestor."
"Of course it can be hereditary, and there are also family problems. When I was a child, I even thought that it was normal to have several wives and that everyone should live under the same roof. Later I realized that it was not always like this. I fell in love several times in high school.
The results were not very good. I once gave up on myself, was sad and despaired, and was a bit shadowy. So I vowed that whenever I meet a good woman, I will be considerate and take good care of her seriously."
Su Yehao calmly dumped the blame.
I have no choice but to pretend to be a good man, and I am also worried about capsizing the boat and exploding the pond. I need to get all the vaccinations I need as soon as possible.
It was a rare opportunity to talk about their relationship while walking. He was busy guiding Nong Qingying's ideas, taking the opportunity to plant seeds and brainwash her.
We walked and chatted together and returned to the car.
Nong Qingying opened the trunk to store sun protection clothes, water bottles, etc. When he saw the suitcase inside, he put his head around and asked, "What's in the box behind the car? Are you going on a long trip?"
"Huh? Oh, no, it was a gift from my grandpa's neighbor. Her husband passed away and left behind a bunch of watches, cufflinks and the like. Take your pick if you like anything."
Su Yehao said casually as a favor.
After opening the box and looking at it, Nong Qingying picked up the box of cufflinks and said in surprise after reading it: "Wow, who lives next to your grandpa? Could this De Beers cufflink be a real blue diamond?"
It looks like it weighs four to five carats, and it’s a pair!”
Cufflinks are something that ordinary people cannot use.
Many high-end shirts have no buttons on the cufflinks, so this is where the cufflinks come in handy.
This thing mainly plays a decorative role, and can often inadvertently make a man's originally monotonous dress and suit more beautiful.
Su Yehao used it during the graduation prom. Nangong Tian helped to hire someone to customize the clothes. He didn't know how much it cost.
When Su Yehao heard "four to five carat blue diamonds" and "De Beers" company, his ears immediately stood up and he said in surprise: "I seemed to be an old rich man when he was alive, how do you know it is a product of De Beers Diamond Company?
"
"Nonsense, it says, De Beers. Some of the cufflinks seem to be very old and have badges on them. They are probably from ancient Europe."
Nong Qingying continued to check other items and found that most of the boxes were old Patek Philippe watches, including an oversized Patek Philippe pocket watch. The brand new pocket watch was made of gold.
She read it briefly and said with envy: "Why don't I have such a neighbor? The total value of this box of things is probably more than ten million, and you actually just threw it in the trunk like this."
Su Yehao doesn't know how to do it.
When I first heard that it was worth tens of millions, I was shocked on the spot.
He picked up a gold pocket watch that was half the size of his palm and read it. He suggested on the spot: "Come with me to find a company and have them appraised. Do you know where to go? I haven't had time to look at most of the things. If there is such a thing,
Expensive, this gift is a bit hot, I need to say hello to my grandpa."
Nong Qingying didn't know much about it. After thinking about it, he frowned slightly and said, "Find a big shopping mall, go to Emperor Watch or Oriental Watch Company, there will definitely be someone there who can help with the appraisal, and many pawn shops should be able to do the same."
…
Just leave.
When I went to the Emperor Watch Company in Tsim Sha Tsui, Nong Qingying was responsible for helping guide the way.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Su Yehao parked his car on the side of the road, carrying his suitcase and explaining his purpose to the clerk.
The salesperson in the store didn't see what kind of car Su Yehao drove, so he didn't care at first. After all, they were responsible for selling watches and were not a professional appraisal company.
However.
When Su Yehao opened the box, he took out the oversized gold pocket watch.
These salesmen, who have been dealing with watches all year round, were collectively dumbfounded.
A customer who loves watches was trying on a Vacheron Constantin, but his attention was instantly attracted by the pocket watch in Su Yehao's hand, and he blurted out: "Damn! This can't be the king of Patek Philippe pocket watches! It's the 150th anniversary of Patek Philippe.
Special commemorative edition!?”
"I don't know. It was a small gift given to me by my elders, so I came here to have it appraised."
Su Yehao didn't know what the King of Pocket Watches was, he just thought the name sounded...a bit expensive.
A female clerk at the Emperor Watch Store quickly took out the product brochure and began to skillfully search for the corresponding introduction.
There are many varieties and styles of watches, and no one can remember them all. These agents usually count the well-known styles and organize them into books to facilitate customers to choose. Whether new watches or second-hand watches, as long as there is demand and they can make money, they can think of them.
Method.
When she found the exact same style, the female shop assistant was so surprised that she was speechless. It was exactly the same as the picture!
The store manager asked tentatively: "Sir, which family are you from?"
"When you come to appraise the watch, you also need to check your ID?"
Su Yehao had already realized that something was wrong and did not take it seriously. He immediately replied: "Earl Medical Group, Tang Boxiao is my grandfather, and my father is Su Sihai from Sihai International."
"Ah~ Master Su, please come this way. I will take you to the VIP room."
The store manager was immediately respectful and added:
"Ordinary people can't get this kind of watch. The King of Patek Philippe pocket watches launched eight years ago is said to be the most complex mechanical watch in the world, weighing 1.1 kilogram. Only five pieces were produced in total, four were released, and the remaining one was
At the Patek Philippe headquarters, I was lucky enough to see it once through the glass. No matter how many people held the money in their hands, they couldn’t buy it..."
