Opening game, American Tycoon

Chapter 2 Do you know keel? (Second update, please accept, please push, please spray)
It comes from the imperial palace in China!

Turning the shogi box around, Zhu Xianhai pointed to the words on the box and said.

"Look, these are Chinese characters..."

China's……

Palace!

Opening the chess box, Zhu Xianhai looked at Alfonso and said.

"Of course, the most special thing is its chess pieces, you can take a look..."

Take a pawn and hand it to Alfonso.

"Ivory?...It doesn't seem like it. It's lighter and doesn't have the texture of ivory."

Ivory is a very common material, and Alfonso is no stranger to it, but it is different.

"Of course not ivory, it..."

Zhu Xianhai deliberately paused, pretending to be mysterious.

"It's made of keel, dragon bone!"

"Dragon bones?"

In fact, it's just plastic, of course, right now, it hasn't been invented yet!
Not to mention these old hats in Argentina, even in Europe, this thing can fool a lot of people.If you want to sell something at a good price, you must first make up a story.

"Yes, the dragon, the dragon flying in the sky, that's why he is so light..."

Like all cemetery sales, Zhu Xianhai began to tell a story.

"This chess set was made by the Chinese emperor two hundred years ago. He ordered the craftsmen to make it out of the treasured keel in the palace. It was originally intended as a gift for the Pope..."

In Zhu Xianhai's story, this chess set that cost [-] yuan per post has become a rare treasure, and the plastic has become a keel. Not only that, it is even directly related to the demise of the empire—the Yongli Dynasty .

As a storyteller, Alfonso's eyes lit up.

A gift from the Chinese emperor to the Pope!
Dragon bones!

There is a story here...it is clearly money!

Of course, stories are really good stories.

For the old hats in Buenos Aires, they have heard such wonderful stories, not to mention the distant Zhu Xianhai, and the rise and fall of the empire.

Such a wonderful story, not to mention that Alfonso listened attentively, even the other customers in the store were also attracted by Zhu Xianhai's story.

To tell a good story is to sell it for a good price. In Zhu Xianhai’s mouth, the story even became the adventures of the prince of Ming Dynasty, what barbarians invaded, what prince was exiled among the people, etc. Of course, the emperor of Ming Dynasty The prince has always embraced this chess set.

The wonderful stories made the audience mesmerized, and it was the first time that Zhu Xianhai discovered that he had such a talent for storytelling!

"...In the following two hundred years, this chess set has been floating among the people."

It took a long time for Alfonso to come back to his senses.

"That's how it got into your hands."

"Well...that's another story."

Closing the chess box pretending to be deep, Zhu Xianhai looked at it, his eyes seemed to be full of reluctance.It's reluctance, this is supposed to please the client - it is said that the old man liked to play chess the most during his lifetime, and that place is definitely the back garden of the CBD in the cemetery, where housing and entertainment are integrated.

Now, it's cheap for you white skins!

"How much do you think it is worth?"

How much is it worth?

Staring at the chess set, Alfonso swallowed.

"Sir, I can go out..."

How much money is suitable?Just as he was hesitating, Qingli's voice sounded from the side.

"Five hundred pesos!"

The voice behind him made Zhu Xianhai turn his head to look, and a pleasing foreign girl came into view.

This foreign girl's appearance is very outstanding, with fair skin, exquisite facial features like sculptures, a head of golden hair coiled into a delicate and towering hair plate, and a pair of big blue jewel-like eyes, all put together , is a big beauty.

What was more eye-catching was the dress of this foreign girl, a light blue low-necked rococo dress that exposed her slender neck and most of her plump breasts.Her bodysuit and tutu made her look like a swan straight out of a vintage painting.

This foreign girl is not bad!

And this foreign girl's appearance is actually a little familiar, as if she has seen it there?
This is obviously unlikely!
Alfonso, who was cut off, shut up the moment he raised his head, his expression was a little stiff, and a smile appeared on his face in an instant.

"Hello, Miss Bellucci."

"Mr. Alfonso, I am very sorry to interrupt your conversation. You know my father likes to play chess. His birthday is coming up. I have been thinking about what to give him. He will definitely like this chess very much. Chess."

The seemingly apologetic words were full of doubts, and she never gave Alfonso a chance to choose.

"Look at what you said, Miss Bellucci, as long as the major likes it."

Alfonso said quickly.As a businessman, he is absolutely the lady in front of him, a character he can never provoke.

"Thank you."

After a slight nod, Marlena's big eyes flickered at the oriental man in front of her.

"Sir, is 500 pesos okay?"

The wonderful story he told also attracted her. Of course, what attracted her was this chess set besides the story.She needs this chess set!After all, Dad's birthday is coming up.

500 pesos?

How much is it worth?

Although the value of the year-month peso is not known.But Zhu Xianhai still guessed its value from the gold jewelry displayed in the glass cabinet.That big gold chain, as thick as a dog's chain, was only worth a hundred and ten pesos.

It should be a lot!
Indeed, the silver peso was the most common currency in circulation in South America in the 19th century. Well, the Mexican Eagle Ocean, also known as the silver peso, is equivalent to the US dollar.Ordinary people only earn two or three pesos for a month of hard work.

"Can you, sir?"

The soft female voice interrupted Zhu Xianhai's thinking.

"Of course, miss."

There are people who are destined to sell goods!

500 pesos...

It should be a lot!
It's not in vain that I spent half a day talking.

"But, sir, I only have 300 pesos here."

Taking out a few banknotes from the bag, Malena said.

"The remaining 200 pesos, can you come with me to get it at home?"

"certainly,"

When he said these words, Zhu Xianhai took the banknotes.

A few thin bills are light.

But it still made him a little confused, so...he has money?
At the same time, he only felt that there seemed to be something more in front of him...

what?
It seems to be a panel, it is suspended in the air, through the panel, Malena's beautiful face seems to be no longer attractive.

"Congratulations on activating the life simulator."

Life simulator?
Although he was a little confused, Zhu Xianhai thought to himself.

This should be the so-called golden finger.

Benefits for travelers?

But, what is this golden finger?
"Do you want to start a life simulation?"

Looking at the words on the panel in confusion, Zhu Xianhai was a little confused.

What does it mean by "life simulation"?
Even though he was in the jewelry store and Malena and the others were still looking at him, Zhu Xianhai couldn't wait to click "Yes".

After a while, Zhu Xianhai found himself walking out of the jewelry store and getting into the carriage.

How did you get here?
When the carriage was driving on the street, Zhu Xianhai was full of doubts.He found himself in a strange state, as if he was experiencing something, and seemed to be a bystander.

The carriage continued to drive along the road.

While the carriage was driving, he chatted with Marlena, most of which were related to China.Xiangche Meiren naturally had a good chat on the road, but not long after leaving the city, amidst the exclamation of the horses, at this moment, Zhu Xianhai felt as if he could fly.

How is this going?

In doubt, Zhu Xianhai, who turned into a human shell, watched helplessly as he crashed into a stone on the side of the road...
