It was quiet around the indoor swimming pool. There was no one else except me and the woman in the swimsuit. I wondered if she had reserved this place specifically to meet me?
I said in a half-joking tone: "Don't use your hands and feet, let's compete in swimming."
Who would have thought that she only hesitated for a few seconds and nodded in agreement.
Because it involved a payment of millions, I felt a little bit in my heart, thinking that there might be some fraud involved, and that this woman was most likely trying to trick me.
She raised her head, looked at me with watery eyes and said, "How about it? Let's start?"
"Ahem...don't mind if I don't speak nicely."
"Aren't you just a middleman? Can you be such a big boss?"
After hearing this, she smiled and asked me if I could make the decision.
What's the relationship between me and the boss?
As close as a grandson, I said of course I can make the decision.
She nodded and said with a smile: "Brother, we are the same. Don't underestimate me."
"how?"
She looked at the other side of the swimming pool and continued in a slightly provocative tone: "How about having a little fun? I don't use my hands or feet. If you're afraid that I'll cheat, you can tie me up with a rope..." After that, she looked
He covered his mouth and smiled softly at me.
So cool...
I immediately shook my head.
I always feel like there is a trap ahead, there is a scam here, this woman is trying to trick me, so I said I won’t compete with you.
"Brother, you are so boring..." As she spoke, she took out a rubber band and tied her hair.
"I'm not a professional swimmer, why are you, a grown man, so scared? It seems like you have no confidence in yourself at all..."
"Otherwise, little brother, you are cowardly. Instead of betting so much money, how about we just bet with an additional condition?"
"What strings attached?"
"We can't say that yet."
It wasn't really sarcastic, it was just that she kept saying it afterwards, and there were a few words in it that made me angry.
"Come!"
"It's a competition! But the premise is not gambling, just gambling, that additional condition of yours!"
"Come down."
I hurriedly changed into a pair of swimming trunks, jumped into the pool with a splash, and shouted to her to come down quickly.
In the past at the Yinchuan Swimming Pool, Xiaoxuan and Douyazai both taught me the standard swimming style. She didn't move her hands and feet, but I could use them. After visually measuring the distance to the finish line, I felt very confident.
five minutes later.
The competition is over, I lost...
She passed me while I was still on the road, paving the water.
I can't figure it out...
Why can I swim so fast?
I watched helplessly as she passed. This woman's hands and feet were really useless! She only used her waist!
How maggots crawl is how she swims, exactly the same way.
If you ask me, this is "maggot swimming."
When I got ashore, without wiping my soaked hair, I said with a dark face: "I lost, I've been fooled by you, what are the additional conditions, you tell me."
She wiped her hair, with a smile on her face, handed me a glass of juice with a straw, and at the same time stretched out her hand and said, "Shi Xiuping."
"Xiang Yunfeng."
We smiled and shook hands, and we went to the table to talk.
After asking around, I found out that this person named Shi Xiuping was not an ordinary person. Each of her bags cost at least tens of thousands of dollars. She was considered the third daughter of the boss in Hong Kong. Although there was a big age difference, I heard others say that they were indeed in that kind of relationship.
That's why Shi Xiuping dared to say that she could make the decision. Otherwise, how could a middleman dare to play such a bet on behalf of the cargo owner?
A well-connected insider can check. In those years, several domestic auction companies sold a lot of bronzes. There was always someone named "Ms. Shi" on the consignment list, and she won a lot of bids. Just recently, Xileng Seal Society auctioned a lot of bronzes.
This woman also participated in the placard-raising ceremony for the Western Zhou bronze vessel "Xijiapan".
Here is a piece of common knowledge: Shang, Zhou and Warring States bronzes are indeed prohibited from being sold and auctioned in China, but there is a loophole in the regulations, that is, "those that have been circulated in an orderly manner can be auctioned and are not subject to the restrictions of the Bronze Cultural Relics Auction Law."
This "circulation in an orderly manner" means that the rubbings have been included in catalogs and collected by someone before.
In this regard, as long as the connections are in place and the money is in place, fraud can be solved and it can be done by specialized companies.
Gululu took a sip of juice, put it down and said with a smile: "Brother Feng, I actually have my own hobbies and my own career. This time I happened to be in the mainland, and Lao Li asked me to come and meet you."
"Isn't the other sponsor you are looking for Gui Wanli? You told him not to come."
"If he asks about it later, just say that Ms. Shi wants it. If you are not convinced, let him come to me."
"Your asking price is very high, and I won't counter-offer. Anyway, it's Lao Li's money, not mine. But I won the bet we made just now, so you must agree to my additional condition and help you, Sister Shi."
I'm going to do something privately."
She always calls me brother, but she asks me to call her sister Shi. I don’t understand the relationship.
She spoke softly, exhaled like orchid, lay in my ear and blew: "As for your sister, I originally wanted to find someone else, but now I think you are better and more suitable. I am definitely suitable for you."
It’s a piece of cake, here’s how it goes…”
After talking for three or four minutes, she leaned back on the recliner and crossed her legs to see my reaction.
I digested this information for a long time, and then asked in confusion: "If I understand correctly, you want us... to dig out ancient porcelain shards for you?"
"Yes, absolutely correct."
"Brother Xiang, is this not difficult for you professionals?"
"It's not a question of whether it's difficult or not. What do you want those broken porcelain pieces for? Are you saying that you can't buy them because you're not short of money?"
"You should know this."
She sat up suddenly, pointed to the floor of the swimming pool and said, "The best things are always underground. Please help me, and I won't treat you badly."
I looked around, walked up to her and asked in a low voice: "To be honest, you are not a policeman, are you? Are you fishing?"
She looked at me for a moment, then burst into laughter!
Then she covered her mouth and laughed wildly, causing her upper body in a swimsuit to rise and fall.
With my mind on my mind, I left the swimming pool with my bag on my back.
There was noisy traffic on the street, and I kept thinking about this matter on the way, whether I could help her do it, and what benefits it would bring to us, because I was still thinking about going to the mountains to see millet in the near future, and I missed her.
Do you know the ancient Jianyang Long Kiln?
In Nanping, Fujian, behind a village, there is an ancient Tongtianlong kiln that is over 100 meters long.
Fuhao Li loves to collect bronzes and jades from various ancient small countries. The Chen State was not a big country at that time, so I naturally have fewer cultural relics from the Chen State. This woman named Shi Xiuping Shi mainly collects porcelain and steppers.
Shakes are the hairpins on women's plugs in ancient times. She has collected many exquisite gilded walking shakes from the Tang Dynasty, many of which are not found in museums.
She started this tile project six years ago. In her own words, it is called the "Star House Project".
She said it was a dream she had when she was a child. Now that she has the ability, she has been trying her best to collect and complete it.
Sister Shi showed me some photos on her mobile phone. She has a big house. The house is surrounded by large pieces of highly transparent glass, and various lights are installed on the ceiling.
Blue and white porcelain, Ru Ge Guan Junding, the five famous kilns of the past dynasties, various beautiful single-color glaze official kilns, these porcelain pieces were polished and polished into the shape of stars and moons, and hung with invisible thin threads.
There are so many people in the room that you can't see them all at a glance.
At night, close the curtains and turn on the special lights on the roof.
These thousands of ancient porcelain pieces are like stars in the sky, shining brightly and in various colors.
When people walk in the room, they should feel like they are walking in history.
