The moment he saw the large piece of gold placed on the table, Shen Wanjun stood up in confusion. His three steps turned into two steps and he stepped over and picked up the gold with both hands.
"What a big piece of gold!"
Facing this piece of gold, Shen Wanjun also sighed like this. It was also the first reaction of a normal person. A two kilogram piece of gold was placed in front of him, which was indeed very shocking.
Touching the pits on the surface of the gold piece with his hand, Shen Wanjun sighed: "This piece of gold should be old. It was cast in an earthen furnace by the people in the early days. Small pieces of gold were melted together. Xue Chen, Where did you get it from? If you can tell me, I'm quite curious, haha."
"I found it in a Taoist temple..." Xue Chen roughly told the story in detail.
After hearing this, Shen Wanjun couldn't help but sigh: "Xue Chen, your luck is really enviable. This thing sounds like a story in a book. If you hadn't told me, I might not have believed it. , there is such a suspenseful and real thing.”
Later, Shen Wanjun found an electronic scale and weighed it. The weight was similar to what Xue Chen measured by hand. The gold nugget weighed 2.03 kilograms.
"Fifty thousand, just a lot more." Shen Wanjun raised his head and looked at Xue Chen, "The gold market is very good now. If you want to sell it, it's very easy. I happen to have a friend who does gold. He will definitely be willing to sell it at a high price. past. "
"Then it's troublesome, Uncle Shen."
Shen Wanjun immediately made a phone call, and the discussion was settled quickly. After hanging up the phone, he asked Xue Chen to take the gold to a gold store with him. In the car, he told Xue Chen that the person he contacted was Huang Jin. The general manager of three gold stores opened by Fu Chain Gold Store in Haicheng City.
The car drove to a busy road and stopped in front of a gold store. The two got out of the car. As soon as they walked into a gold store decorated with glittering gold, they were greeted by a short, fat, middle-aged man in a black suit. He came up and hugged Shen Wanjun with a very warm smile on his face: "Old Shen, you haven't come to me for tea for a while."
"Old Wu, you are too busy at work, so I can't disturb you. Come on, let me introduce you. This is Xue Chen. Xue Chen, and this is Mr. Wu Qingyun." Shen Wanjun introduced with a smile.
"Oh, Xue Chen, I've heard of his name. He is the youngest and most capable antique appraiser in Haicheng City. I have admired him for a long time." Wu Qingyun shook hands with Xue Chen kindly.
"I don't dare to take it seriously, it's just some small skills." Xue Chen nodded politely.
"Old Wu, now Xiaochen is not only an appraiser, but also the vice president of Yunteng Auction Company, a subsidiary of the Ning Group. He was the one who mentioned on the phone that I wanted to sell gold," Shen Wanjun said.
Wu Qingyun glanced at Xue Chen in surprise: "Young and promising people, great people. Let's go to my office to talk, please."
After arriving at the office, the three of them sat down separately as the guest of honour. Wu Qingyun asked someone to bring tea, and then they started talking about business.
"Mr. Xue, do you want to sell some gold? Is it a gold necklace or a gold ring?" Wu Qingyun asked casually, without showing much enthusiasm on his face.
He manages three gold stores, and the daily throughput of gold is a huge number. Even if there are door-to-door sales of gold, the people below will handle it.
Even a relatively heavy gold chain is only worth tens of thousands of dollars, and it is not his turn to deal with it personally. If it were not for Shen Wanjun's face, he would not take time out of his busy schedule to deal with these trivial matters.
.
"No, it's a golden ball." Xue Chen replied seriously.
"ball?"
Wu Qingyun was stunned for a moment, what the hell was a golden ball? He had never seen gold jewelry made into a ball shape.
"Bang!"
Xue Chen lifted up the canvas bag in his hand and placed it on the crystal coffee table. It made a loud noise, which made people worry that the tempered glass covering the coffee table had been smashed.
"What's inside is the golden ball you mentioned?"
Before the bag could be opened, Wu Qingyun looked at the outline of the bag and couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked in surprise.
He originally thought that the golden ball in Xue Chen's mouth was a sphere about the size of a ping pong ball, but now it seemed to be much larger than he imagined.
"Please take a look at Mr. Wu." With a smile on his face, Xue Chen opened his canvas bag and pushed it in front of Wu Qingyun.
When Wu Qingyun saw the huge golden ball in his pocket, he took a deep breath, opened his mouth, and his eyes almost fell out. He looked at it in disbelief, crossed his legs and put it down, stretched out his hand and slowly picked it up.
.
It's not that he has never seen so much gold. He sees dozens of kilograms of gold every day, but he has never seen such a shocking piece of gold!
Although the pitted surface looks rough, it has an indescribable and shocking impact. Compared with the regular gold bars that are cast, it is even more eye-catching.
"I know that Lao Wu, you have many things to do every day and are busy with work. If it were ordinary gold, why would I come to you? How about this piece of gold?" Shen Wanjun asked with squinted eyes.
Wu Qingyun slowly put it down and looked up at Xue Chen: "Mr. Xue, can you tell me the origin of this piece of gold?"
"Mr. Wu, I can only tell you that there is absolutely no problem with the origin." Xue Chen replied.
"I can prove this. It's only a few hundred thousand, and Xue Chen won't get into trouble just for this little money." Shen Wan made a guarantee for Xue Chen.
Wu Qingyun glanced at the two of them and pondered for a moment: "Well, I will keep this piece of gold. Lao Shen and Mr. Xue, you two will wait for a while to identify the specific content of the gold and then discuss the price.
"
Wu Qingyun took the golden ball out of the office and returned about half an hour later. At the same time, he handed an appraisal report in his hand to Xue Chen.
"This is the appraisal report that has just been done. The composition of gold accounts for 95%, and it contains a small amount of copper and silver. The weight of pure gold is 1,985 grams. If Mr. Xue is right about the appraisal,
If you have any objections, you can also go to other appraisal institutions for inspection in person."
"No need, I believe Mr. Wu." Xue Chen glanced at it casually and put down the report.
Wu Qingyun nodded. Being trusted always makes people feel comfortable.
After discussing for a while, both parties reached a transaction price that they were both satisfied with, which was 520,000 yuan. Wu Qingyun immediately transferred the money to Xue Chen.
Looking at the bank's receipt text message and seeing an additional 520,000 yuan in the account, Xue Chen raised the corner of his mouth.
"Happy transaction." Xue Chen stood up and shook hands with Wu Qingyun.
After having dinner with Shen Wanjun, Xue Chen returned to Jinguancheng's home and opened the door. He saw Xue Qi watching a movie with a big furry bear in her arms.
"Brother Chen, you are back." Xue Qi turned around and saw Xue Chen, immediately stood up and greeted with a smile, and then excitedly talked about the interesting experience of playing with Han Xinyao today.
"Xiaoqi, do you have a bank account?" Xue Chen smiled and chatted for a few words, then asked after sitting down on the sofa.
"Well, I applied for one a while ago, because now the university tuition fees are paid by credit card and no cash is accepted." Xue Qi seemed to have roughly guessed the reason why Xue Chen asked about the bank account, and felt nervous and uneasy.
"I sold that piece of gold. When I said we would meet each other, you would give me your bank card number and I would call you and use it as pocket money."
"Uh, Brother Chen, no need, what's the good intention?" Xue Qi lowered her head nervously.
"Are you sorry? You are my little sister. It's not right for a brother to give you pocket money. Give me your card number." Xue Chen stroked the top of Xue Qi's head, rubbed it lightly, and said with a smile.
After Xue Qi finished telling her card number, she received a receipt text message from the bank on her phone in less than five minutes. Her black and white eyes widened and she counted zeros several times. After making sure she was not dazzled, her face turned red.
, looking at Xue Chen, he was a little tongue-tied and said: "Brother Chen, this is... fifty thousand?"
"Didn't you major in accounting? How come you can't even count simple numbers?" Xue Chen joked and got up to take a shower.
Xue Qi read the text message again, bit her lip, and cheered happily: "Brother Chen, I love you so much."
Xue Chen turned around and smiled: "Silly girl."
…
Xue Chen decided to build a new house in his hometown, which would not only keep his parents away from their hometown, but also improve the quality of life. In the afternoon, he planned to contact Wang Dong’s father Wang Tianhai and ask him to help find a construction team, but
Before Xue Chen could call, Wang Tianhai took the initiative to contact him.
On the phone, Wang Tianhai's voice was deep and heavy. He asked Xue Chen to go to the Zhuoyue Antique Shop because he had something important to say.
Xue Chen had a vague feeling that something big had happened, so he didn't dare to waste a moment, and immediately drove to the Zhuo Zhuo Antique Store.
What was a little strange was that the shutter door of the antique store was ajar. When he bent down and got in, he saw that the three clerks in the store were not there, and the lights were turned off, making the store dark, and he was confused.
Behind the second floor, I saw Wang Tianhai and Wang Dong and his son sitting silently.
Xue Chen saw that Wang Dong's face was very ugly, with dark circles under his eyes and greasy hair. He looked like he hadn't rested for a long time.
Seeing Xue Chen coming, Wang Dong's face became darker and he said in a hoarse voice: "Old Xue, you are here."
Wang Tianhai's face sank like water. He suddenly stood up and glared at Wang Dong. He roared angrily: "You prodigal son, kneel down."
Wang Dong's face was ashen, the flesh on his cheeks was trembling, and he was holding the chair with both hands, as if he was really about to kneel down.
Xue Chen hurriedly stepped forward to support Wang Dong and asked hastily: "Uncle Wang, what happened?"
"Let this scoundrel speak, I have no shame." After Wang Tianhai sat down, he sighed heavily and turned his head to one side.
"Dongzi, tell me, what happened?" Xue Chen knew that something big must have happened when he saw the scene in front of him, but he had only been away for a few days, what would happen?
After Wang Dong sat down, he held Xue Chen's arm with both hands. His eyes were red and he choked with sobs: "Old Xue, I'm not a thing. I lost our antique shop..."
After half an hour, Xue Chen finally figured out what happened. To put it simply, Wang Dong mortgaged the Excellent Antique Shop at the gambling table and lost it.
"Old Xue, go ahead and beat me and scold me. I should have listened to your advice in the past, and I wouldn't be here now." Wang Dong grabbed his hair with both hands and said with great regret. (To be continued)
