Shen Wanjun understood the truth that there are always many people who are eager to get good things, so when he heard that more than one of them met with the seller, he sighed, but he could understand it.
The car stopped in front of a teahouse called Bamboo Forest. The entire teahouse was decorated with emerald green bamboo, which looked refreshing and had a feeling of returning to nature.
After walking in, the waiter led them to the door of a private room on the second floor. The three of them pushed the door open and went in.
Xue Chen followed, and after entering the tea room, he took a look at the people present. He was a thin man with hair in his mid-50s, with a tired and haggard face. Thinking of Uncle Hong's introduction to the seller, he realized , this person should be the seller.
In addition to this seller, there was also a middle-aged fat man present. Xue Chen took a look and felt that he looked very familiar at first glance. After thinking about it for a while, he remembered that he had indeed seen this fat man! It was in Hengchuan. The Wang family had met him, and one of the people who went to buy the Wang family's half-life pearl was this person! He also said that the Wang family's tea was 'highly broken'.
But obviously the fat man surnamed Gao who was drinking tea did not recognize Xue Chen, or had already forgotten it. He did not have as good a memory as Xue Chen. After all, it was a long time ago.
After Uncle Hong's introduction, the two parties met. The seller was a professor from another university in Beijing, and his surname was Tang Xiaoshan.
The tea table was very spacious. Xue Chen and three people sat down on one side. When the seller asked him to wait a little longer, he understood that there seemed to be more than two groups of buyers.
"The Flower God's Cup is really popular." Xue Chen thought to himself that with so many buyers, it will definitely become a seller's market. If he wants to get the December Narcissus God's Cup, he must at least outdo the other buyers. , the price may be higher than the market price.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the door of the tea room was pushed open again.
Xue Chen subconsciously turned his head and looked over, and saw two people walking in from the door. What surprised him was that one of them was actually one he had seen before. He was one of the three young men he met while cutting iron lumps in the warehouse yesterday. One seems to be called Haozi?
Hu Jinhao also recognized Xue Chen and Shen Wanjun immediately and frowned.
"Hello, Mr. Tang, I'm Hu Wansheng." Coming in with Hu Jinhao was a man in his early forties with an elegant temperament. He stretched out his hand to shake hands with Tang Xiaoshan, the holder of the December Flower God Cup, revealing his big smile. A milky white Hetian jade ring on the mother's finger, and a string of phoenix-eye Bodhi bracelets on her wrist.
"Hello, Mr. Hu."
After everyone sat down, the three parties knew that the other party was a competitor for the December Narcissus Cup, so there was no verbal communication.
Tang Xiaoshan was also a relatively reserved person. He seemed to have never experienced this kind of thing, so he seemed a little cautious. He softened and said: "Since you are here, let me get straight to the point. I won't hide anything from you. My family has had some twists and turns recently and I need some money. This time I have no choice but to sell this Kangxi December Narcissus Cup. Please take a look at it first."
When Tang Xiaoshan opened a palm-sized black box placed on the tea table, everyone looked over and saw the narcissus cup placed inside. No need to look further, the lustrous color shimmering on the cup , as well as the rich but not gaudy color, and the vigorous appearance of the poem "The plain snow-condensed tree, the fragrant wind fills the branches" depicted on the cup, you know it is not a fake.
"Mr. Tang, how do you plan to sell it? Bid, and the highest bidder will know?" asked the fat man surnamed Gao.
Shen Wanjun and Hu Wansheng also looked at Tang Xiaoshan.
Tang Xiaoshan was silent for a while and said: "I will only sell this flower cup for one million."
"One million!" This sentence shocked everyone. It was not expensive, but too cheap! According to the market value, the price of a Flower God Cup should be around three million.
The fat man surnamed Gao said slowly: "Mr. Tang, you are not talking about U.S. dollars, are you?"
"No, I'm talking about RMB. However, in addition to this one million, I have two more requests. Whoever can do it, I will let him take away the Flower God Cup immediately."
Tang Xiaoshan took a deep breath and said the other two requests.
"Three of them should know that my wife has a very serious case of uterine cancer. As far as I know, Professor Xie from Ren'en Hospital is the most famous expert in the treatment of uterine cancer in the country. However, he has been retired for more than a year and rarely goes to the operating table for surgery. , I hope to ask Professor Xie to treat my wife."
"Oh, I'm not afraid of you guys laughing when I tell you this. My unsatisfactory son went to the United States to study in California. In order to show off to his classmates, he borrowed US$50,000 from a local illegal loan company to buy a car at a high interest rate without my back. It's normal. The most I could pay back was 100,000, but I was asked to pay back 500,000, otherwise... I hope that I can find a way to help my son, and I think all of you are capable people."
When Tang Xiaoshan finished stating these two conditions, Fatty Gao was the first to speak: "I have a trading friend in California who has some connections there. I think I can help you solve your son's problem."
Hu Wansheng followed closely and spoke: "What a coincidence, my old man and Mr. Xie from Ren'en Hospital have been friends for many years. I'm going to invite Mr. Xie. I think he won't refuse and is willing to perform surgery on your lover." .”
Shen Wanjun's face darkened, because he couldn't do either of these two things. He was not a local, so naturally he had nothing to do with the old doctor named Xie. He was a pawn shop owner and could not talk in Haicheng. It has some weight, but trying to influence a lending company on the other side of the ocean is a fool's errand.
This also means that he has lost the qualification to obtain the December Narcissus Cup.
"Old Hong, let's go." Shen Wanjun stood up and said. Although he was very disappointed, he had no choice but to think about missing this narcissus cup. He still felt very sad because he didn't know when he would encounter another narcissus cup again. No chance in this life.
Hu Jinhao, who had been silent all this time, saw that Shen Wanjun and the others seemed to be incapable of doing either of these two things. He felt inexplicably comfortable and raised the corner of his mouth because what happened yesterday really made him Feeling very embarrassed.
Hong Yuanqing also stood up, understanding that his old friend couldn't do it, and he wanted to help, but unfortunately, he didn't have the ability.
When Tang Xiaoshan saw Hong Yuanqing and Shen Wanjun preparing to leave, he didn't say much.
But Xue Chen did not stand up. He glanced at Shen Wanjun who looked lonely and depressed, stretched out his hand to pull Shen Wanjun to sit down again, and then said to Tang Xiaoshan: "Mr. Tang, maybe I can do both of these two things." Help you solve it. ”
"Huh?" Fatty Gao and Hu Wansheng both looked over in surprise.
"Really?" Tang Xiaoshan stood up in shock.
Shen Wanjun's expression condensed and he whispered: "Xiaochen, you..."
Hong Yuanqing was also stunned and stared at Xue Chen.
Tang Xiaoshan took two deep breaths, calmed down a bit, looked at Xue Chen, and said solemnly: "Are you sure? You can solve the two things I mentioned? I hope you won't lie to me."
The fat man surnamed Gao looked suspicious and said: "Little brother, the Flower God Cup is a good thing. Everyone wants it, but you must not lose your character because of a Flower God Cup, right?"
"Thank you, Mr. Gao, for your teaching. Of course I'm not just talking nonsense." Xue Chen replied with a smile.
"Hey, how do you know my surname is Gao? I probably haven't mentioned it before." The fat man surnamed Gao said in surprise.
Xue Chen did not explain.
Hu Wansheng, who thought Xue Chen and Shen Wanjun were out of the game, couldn't help but said: "Professor Xie has only performed three surgeries this year, but do you know who he was operated on? Even department-level leaders can't hire him. Old man, are you sure you can persuade Mr. Xie?"
Xue Chen glanced at Hu Jinhao and continued to Tang Xiaoshan: "Mr. Tang, to be honest, I don't know Mr. Xie you are talking about..."
"Ha, since you don't even know Professor Xie, how dare you make such arrogant remarks and think you can get him? What a joke!" Hu Jinhao said with a sneer.
If you don't even know anyone, you dare to say that you can ask for help. Isn't this a joke?
Tang Xiaoshan also had a slightly unhappy look on his face. He looked at Hong Yuanqing, as if to say: Look at the buyer you found, he is so unreliable.
Hong Yuanqing looked a little embarrassed and turned to look at Shen Wanjun.
Shen Wanjun thought in his heart that Xue Chen wanted to get the Narcissus Cup for him, so he had no choice but to say this. He was very moved and said: "Xiao Chen, forget it..."
Xue Chen looked at Tang Xiaoshan and said, "Mr. Tang, what is your purpose in finding Professor Xie?"
"Of course I am performing an operation on my lover." Although Tang Xiaoshan was unhappy, he still replied.
"Then how does Professor Xie perform the surgery? How sure are you of a complete cure?" Xue Chen then asked.
"This... may be a uterine removal operation. The success rate of the cure... is hard to say." Tang Xiaoshan sighed, looking depressed and uncomfortable.
"Actually, your first condition is not to ask Professor Xie, but to treat your lover, right?" Xue Chen smiled lightly, "Unfortunately, I have the ability to treat your lover without surgery. , you can be completely cured!”
"As for the second matter, I have a friend who is the future heir of Eka International Ocean Shipping Company in California, USA. I think your son's matter will be easily solved if he comes forward to speak."
Xue Chen's words shocked everyone present, especially the first sentence, which shocked everyone.
Can uterine cancer be completely cured without surgery?
Tang Xiaoshan looked uncertain and looked at Xue Chen: "Are you sure you are not talking nonsense? You are not lying?"
Xue Chen smiled with relief and said: "Mr. Tang, the Flower God Cup is in your hand. If I can't do it, I don't think you will give it to me. Then what's the use of lying, right? I can promise to cure you. My love, help your son solve the loan sharking problem, but I also have a condition, we will not pay the one million, what do you think?" (To be continued)
