Lame Lao San's family background and hundreds of years of ancestral appraisal skills are now fully utilized, introducing the characteristics of this "Han Xizai Night Banquet" in detail. Even the copy collected in the National Palace Museum in the north has been
I took it out and made a few comments.
After the lame old man finished speaking, Xiang Qiang and the three old men were all dumbfounded. The other old man, as soon as Xue Xiang opened the painting, had a growl in his throat, tilted his head, and leaned against the sofa.
Unconscious.
Normally, the old man had fainted, and Xiang Qiang and the other three old men should have been anxious to see what was going on with the fainted old man. But the four of them remained motionless, all staring at the painting with their eyes.
On top, the whole person seemed to be frozen.
Xue Xiang couldn't stand it anymore, so he stretched out his hand and rubbed the old man's jade pillow and jade pillow softly a few times, and then the old man slowly woke up. After the old man woke up, he stared a few times, and suddenly, he rubbed his body.
He rushed towards the coffee table, and just as he squeezed an old man, he grabbed the magnifying glass from another old man's hand. He was so pressed that he wanted to get into the painting.
After a while, Xue Xiang finally became impatient: "Hey, hey, hey, I'm telling you, you guys, I've been reading this for a long time. Isn't there someone among you who understands? The guy next to me explained the ins and outs of the painting, and
The characteristics, style, and even the source are clearly explained, so why are you fussing over it? Let’s be honest, I am short of money right now.
I'll borrow some money from you, turn it around, and let you help keep it for ten days and a half. By the way, I'll let you get the auspiciousness of this national treasure passed down from generation to generation. I don't have time to waste time with you, so I'll give you a price.
No. I'll go to another house and ask if this thing can be pressed out. Damn it, my car is still waiting outside."
While talking, Xue Xiang pulled the old men back to the sofa and picked up the paintings on their own.
Xue Xiang was about to put the scroll into the mahogany box, but Xiang Qiang held him down: "Brother, you are too impatient. You have to give us some time to discuss it." Seeing such a valuable treasure, Xiang Qiang brought it with him whenever he spoke.
Trilled.
But he said that Xiang Qiang has been running this Rongbao Hall for a long time. Naturally, he is somewhat obsessed with antiques, and the old man who fainted just now is an anti-ding figure in Rongbao Hall who appraises calligraphy and paintings, so he fainted again just now.
It's a grab. Xiang Qiang probably didn't add any water to the lame lao San's introduction just now.
Sure enough, Xiang Qiang glanced at the old man who had fainted earlier. The old man nodded tremblingly, and Xiang Qiang felt a big stone fall in his heart.
press us
The rules of this industry are that you can't just treat it as ten and a half months, at least one month, and the monthly interest rate is eight cents. Of course, Brother Xue and I hit it off. Of course it's a different matter. The monthly interest rate is seven and a half. I don't know that Brother Xue is such a treasure.
How much do you want to be?”
"We are not selling things, I am the seller and you are the buyer; we are pawning things, and there is no pawn shop owner who doesn't pay the price. Instead, you call me a pawnbroker and yell at me. Are you thinking that a man is a tycoon?"
Let me kill you with a knife. To tell you the truth, we men are really not afraid of this. You are not afraid of this.
Okay, there is another buyer. Besides, I am pawning, not selling. If you give me less money, I will pay less interest. Anyway, it will only take four or five days for me to have the money. In these few days
God, I want to go to the casino and carriages, you can give it to me, it will be enough for me to have fun."
Xue Xiangyu tried to escape, but Xiang Qiang immediately fell into the trap.
To put it into detail, there is no reason why Xiang Qiang did not fall into the trap. Xiang Qiang now fully understands the level and level of the painting in front of him. Not to mention how beautiful the painting is, it can be hidden by just a copy.
When you enter the Palace Museum, you should know how precious this authentic product is. It is no exaggeration to describe it as a national treasure. In the nearly 30 years since the birth of this Rongbao Hall, have you ever seen such a national treasure?
Because Rongbaotang didn't have a treasure worthy of the occasion, he was secretly ridiculed by many colleagues in the pawn shop for being a nouveau riche. When he came across "Han Xizai's Night Banquet", Xiang Qiang almost thought it was a gift from God. How could he let it go?
past.
Previously, Xiang Qiang was thinking about lowering the price as much as possible, but now he just wants to offer a high price and let the prodigal fool around in casinos and racecourses. As long as the prodigal cannot redeem the money after a month, the treasure will be automatically collected.
Own it.
Of course, it's not that Xiang Qiang has never thought about taking advantage of others, but Xue Xiang's momentum and tone of voice made him confused. Seeing Xue Xiang shouting and visiting casinos and riding horses, he might be from Mainland China.
The red young man next to me, how else can an ordinary young man have such magnanimity?
Don't look at it now, Hong Kong Island is under the jurisdiction of the British Empire, but the day of return is less than 20 years away. These gangs are not wealthy gentry. In 1997, they packed up and ran abroad.
. Their foundation and power all come from Hong Kong Island. After going abroad, they may immediately become a side dish. Therefore, it is reasonable for Xiang Qiang to have such concerns.
The calculation was settled, Xiang Qiang pretended to be bold, slapped the table and said: "Brother Xue, you and I are destined to meet today. How can I let you make this trip in vain? According to what you people in the capital say, it's a good deal."
, three million, brother, what do you think?"
"Isn't it a bit much? I can't spend these four days, how about a little more?" Xue Xiang suppressed the excitement in his heart, frowned slightly, and made a reluctant expression.
"Not much, so much, so much. In these four or five days, your brother must have fun. Are you afraid that the interest rate will be too high? Why don't you do this? I will give you another point, no, let you
One and a half points, I'll make up a lucky number, and I'll give you six points of interest, so that your brother can have a smooth success in the casino." Xiang Qiang said happily, but in his heart he wished that Xue Xiang would lose everything.
"What are you talking about? I seem to care about such a small profit. The interest is still worth giving up. I don't have to make people laugh." Xue Xiang made up his mind, since he was regarded as a
Now that he is a dandy, he simply pretends to be a dandy to the end.
"Brother can't speak. Brother Xue Haihan, it's settled. Just wait a moment and I'll have someone write a check for you. It's a check from Standard Chartered Bank, payable on sight..." Xiang Qiang was talking enthusiastically.
Xue Xiang frowned, patted his mouth lightly, and said with a smile: "Brother, I am too talkative. I forgot that I have seen the big world..."
Xue Xiang waved his hand, as if he didn't want to listen to his nonsense.
Xiang Qiang was so embarrassed that he accused Xue Xiang and asked the four old men to follow him into the backstage. Not long after, he walked back alone with a cheerful face, holding two tickets in his hand. When he got close, he stretched out his hand and handed it to Xue Xiang.
Towards.
Xue Xiang took it and saw that it was a check filled with three million yuan. He was not polite and stuffed it into his shirt pocket. Then he pushed the wooden box over and told Xiang Qiang to be happy.
He kept it, said hello to the lame old man, and strode away.
"Third brother, I've been holding back these words for a long time."
As soon as we entered the hospital lobby, the lame old man started talking.
"What are you talking about?" Xue Xiang turned around.
The lame old man came up to Xue Xiang, covered half of his face with his hands, and whispered: "That's right, that short guy who discussed business with us earlier, is there something wrong with his mind?"
"How do you say this?" Xue Xiangqi asked.
Lame Lao San sneered: "I have seen pawnshops like this when I was a kid. How can they bother to pawn things and give them higher prices? They just get a bare board, no hair, and a tattered coat."
"The only thing you should treat as a thing is that you took the phoenix crown of that old lady Cixi. You could also call it a chamber pot. I have never seen that dwarf do anything like this."
When Xue Xiang heard this, he patted Lame Lao San on the shoulder, laughed, and walked upstairs without saying a word. Lame Lao San was puzzled by what he saw.
In fact, Xue Xiang's heart has never calmed down since he left Rongbaotang. I remember the first time he felt this way was when he took the repaired porcelain to Chen Kaizhen and exchanged it for 2,000 yuan. At that time, Xue Xiang was really
He was so happy that eating meat all day long was no longer a problem. Later, after selling antiques, collecting huge amounts of New Year's money, and receiving special allowances, Xue Xiang gradually lost interest in money.
It was not until Dabao was about to see a doctor that Xue Xiang felt embarrassed about money again!
At this moment, although Xue Xiang had already guessed almost exactly what Xiang Qiang had in mind, he still couldn't help but be overjoyed. He never expected that a painting could be exchanged for three million yuan.
Even though it has always been said to be a national treasure, the price is too astonishing!
You must know that these three million Hong Kong dollars are equivalent to one million yuan!
One million yuan, what is the concept of a republic at this time, is nothing short of an astronomical figure!
In fact, the reason why Xue Xiang is so excited is because he does not understand the development situation of Hong Kong Island's economy at this time. If nothing else, the taxi driver who drives him has a monthly salary of more than 1,000 yuan. When converted into RMB, it is more than him.
This super hero earned even more, more than ten times higher than the salary of ordinary mainland workers at this time.
Maybe it’s not intuitive to use the salary analogy, so let me take the familiar Hong Kong movie as an example. The comedy movie "Half a Category" by the three brothers of Xu Guanwen, which was just released this year, grossed nearly 8 million in box office. And this one
Compared with the monetary value of China's top ten famous paintings and the box office revenue of a movie, this three million does not seem so impressive.

Xue Xiang came upstairs and saw Gu Changdao standing outside the ward with his arms folded. When he came closer to ask, he found out that Dabao's operation had been completed and it was extremely successful. After receiving another good news, Xue Xiang felt happy and patted Gu Changdao.
He pushed his shoulder and pushed open the ward, but saw that Dabao was still sleeping on the bed, but the oxygen mask on his face was taken off. On the side, Liu Ying'er was wiping Dabao's body.
Vice-President Wang was giving Dabao a massage to smoothen his blood vessels and avoid bedsores. Even though the ward was air-conditioned, Vice-President Wang was still sweating and his front shirt was soaked. It was obvious that he had put in all his efforts.
