The man came to the door and didn't do anything. The door opened automatically. But this is not surprising. After all, sensor doors are so common now. But this house always makes me uncomfortable.
"Everyone, please come in." After he entered, he waved us in sideways. We also went in under his guidance. The space inside was very small and there was nothing. There was only a counter facing us. It was a pawn shop.
, it’s not a hotel, so it definitely doesn’t need a big store. But it’s too narrow, and we can hardly move.
"Your place is not very spacious. It's a bit crowded for the few of us."
"Oh, our pawn shop is a bit small. Actually, there is nothing wrong with it. I think you must have something good to show me. Let's move inside."
"Okay, let's go inside, and we'll give you a good look." He invited us to go inside, but that's okay, our things are definitely not too safe outside.
We followed this man into the back. It was quite spacious inside, and the hall looked very grand, but there was no one here, not even a staff member could be seen. I took out the jade pendant and let him see it.
"What do you think of this? This is a good thing. If you know the goods, you should be able to tell whether this is a treasure. I don't know what you call it?"
"Hey, this jade pendant of yours must be a few years old. I think its color and transparency, especially its shape, are not from the past one or two hundred years. I think it is from the Song, Ming and Yuan dynasties. It's really worth it.
How much money do you have, where did you get such a treasure?"
"Oh! This is really valuable. It has been passed down to me by my ancestors. It has been a family heirloom from generation to generation. I don't know what kind of treasure it is. I thought it should be valuable. Don't I need money urgently now? I don't want to give it away.
If you sell it, won't it touch you? I can redeem it later if the pawn shop is not in good condition."
I made up a random lie, and I couldn't tell him that I saw a sunken ship at the bottom of the sea, and two ghosts gave it to me. This might make him think I'm a psycho.
"So that's it. How could ordinary people have such rare antiques? But do you want to pawn this thing? I really like it anyway. If you are willing, just give me a price."
He is very cheerful, and of course he is also someone who knows the goods. Otherwise, he would not directly ask me to give a price, which means that he is also interested in it. I pawned it for him. If I have a chance to come back, I will definitely redeem this jade pendant.
.I don’t know how much I should say. I estimate it is worth more than a million, but in this small county town, it is a small pawn shop. I am afraid that I will scare him when I ask for money.
However, I then thought about it. It was my idea how much I wanted, but he might not give me that much. I had to ask for more first, and then see how much he was willing to give based on the situation.
"By the way, you can just call me the third child. I am the third child."
"Third brother, you also know that this is a family heirloom and there is no urgent matter. I will not pawn it, so I want this number." I gave him a two.
"How much, two million?"
"Well, it's two million. What do you think, third brother? This jade pendant of mine is really a treasure. Do you think you can accept it?"
"Okay, my shop doesn't make a living from this. It's just my hobby. I'm a big fan of antiques, so I thought you would bring me what I like. I'm not wrong, right?
, if you have any good treasures, I can buy them for you. Aren't you just short of money?"
Why is this man so rich? Although pawnshops are generally small in appearance, they are hidden. The people who go to pawnshops are different from those in ancient times. They are all valuable and good things. If the pawnshop does not have enough funds,
It is not easy to run a pawn shop.
I asked him for two million for our jade pendant, but he agreed to it without any ambiguity. It can be seen that his pawnshop is quite powerful, but he still asked me like this, and he planned to buy it if he still had it.
If I asked for something, he would give it to me immediately. Two million had already come out, and he was still so stubborn, which meant that he could still easily come up with a few two million.
In this small county town, it can be considered powerful, but the name also has its own personality, 'People's Heart Pawnshop', which is really strange, indicating that this boss is really not an ordinary person. This makes me think about this
The boss was very curious. I was originally very suspicious of this place. I always felt that the atmosphere here was not right. But looking at it this way, it is a pawn shop that likes to be mysterious.
"We only have this heirloom. I would like to have a few more treasures, but how can ordinary people have so many treasures? If I had them, I would give them back to you, Third Brother. But Third Brother, you are the third eldest child, you have so many treasures."
How many brothers?" I changed the topic to avoid saying more useless words.
The money I sell for this jade pendant is enough for our living expenses in the recent period. We can't be greedy when buying another car. These things of mine are treasures and can indeed be exchanged for a lot of money, but I still need a lot.
, just treat it as something, don’t be jealous just looking at the money.
"Okay, I'll give you the money when I get back. How do you want to collect the money? Should I give you cash now? I have many brothers, I can't count them. They are all one with me. I am them and they are me.
"
"Then you and your brothers have a really good relationship, and there is no distinction between you and me. As for the money, let's do it now. We don't have anything to do anyway. If it's convenient for you, Third Brother, just give it to us now.
If it’s inconvenient, we can change the date.”
"Okay, I'll give you the money right away."
This third brother gave us the money very readily, but in a very rich way. He directly packed a box of RMB and gave it to us. I will tell him later that he wants to transfer money to us. After all, our XX treasure is so popular, so how about transfer payment?
Isn't it a matter of minutes?
"Third brother, do you usually keep so much cash in the store? Isn't it dangerous and inconvenient? Today's technology is so advanced that you can just transfer money on your mobile phone. It doesn't have to be so troublesome.
"
"I don't like new methods. This primitive feeling excites me. You know, technology is advanced now, but people's hearts are getting more and more sophisticated. They don't have a sense of belonging, so I still like this feeling.
Things like mobile phones don't exist for me. Speaking of danger, I don't think anyone can come here casually, let alone take anything here or he will be punished.?
"
"So that's it. Third brother, you are really a special person. But if you don't have a mobile phone, how can others contact you? For example, if they want to pawn off you, wouldn't it be very troublesome if they don't have your contact information?"
"I told you from the beginning that as long as someone wants to find our pawn shop, we can feel it and be in front of the customer instantly, but it doesn't necessarily have to be who?"
"Then you came to us because you felt that we were trying to be a thing. I thought, what a coincidence. Just when we were about to be a thing, you came over and stopped us."
"Ah, you guys are an exception. I just happened to see you when I was passing by. I smelled the smell of antiques, and it was very strong. I thought you might have a good baby, so I tried my luck and called you
Come on, we unexpectedly guessed that you are really looking for a pawn shop. You are not the main source of customers for our pawn shop. What kind of human beings do we need? You are completely different from them."
"Oh, I know that your guests are all the kind of extremely rich people who then went bankrupt for some reason or people who are in urgent need of money. But we are still destined, otherwise how could we meet together? You are right.
Come on, third brother."
"Well, it makes sense to say so. It is indeed fate. Okay, brother, I will remember you. If I see you in trouble in the future, I will help you."
