Merry ghost doctor

Zhang Xiaofan coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment, and asked seemingly casually, "Mr. Gao just said how much the house is going to sell for?"

"I think it will cost 700 million anyway. Brother Gao already has 650 million." Gao Daquan said with a philistine look on his face, "This house is really good. You can buy it for people to live in or open a shop. 700 million is not enough. expensive."

Zhang Xiaofan pondered for a while, looked at the full ashtray and asked, "Where is the wastebasket, this ashtray is full."

Gao Daquan turned around and took a plastic bag, and said, "Just put it in, it doesn't matter so much."

The corner of Zhang Xiaofan's mouth twitched lightly, poured out all the soot in the jar, and looked at the thing in his hand silently. [

This ashtray looks like a wooden material, about a palm high, with floral patterns engraved on it, the sun is hot, a child with braids points to the sun, and smiles at an official in court clothes behind him what is said.The scene of this cup is exquisitely carved, the characters are vividly portrayed, and the hollowness is vividly carved, which can be seen from its superb skills.

"This cup is so beautiful, it would be a pity to use it as an ashtray." Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and said.

Gao Daquan waved his hand and said, "It looks pretty good, but it's not worth much." He said angrily, "I asked a buddy to look at it, and he said it was made of ordinary wood, and the carver is not worth it." Yes, but it’s not worth much, at most it’s about seven or eight hundred yuan. There’s another one in the old man’s study, and I’ll give it to you if you want it.”

The Zhang family brothers looked at Gao Daquan with the eyes of a fool, and secretly sighed in their hearts, this guy was a typical beggar with a golden bowl, and he was home by the second. "Things are beautiful, but I wouldn't buy this 700 million house for a few hundred dollars, would I?"

Gao Daquan smiled awkwardly and said: "Isn't this a business talk? We can negotiate the price. But I can tell you, if you don't hurry up, Brother Gao will make a decision. We have already agreed, Tomorrow morning, take your notebook to the Housing Management Bureau to trade."

"620 million, no more." Zhang Xiaofan said in a deep voice.

When Gao Daquan heard that there was a door, he laughed and said: "It's only 20 more, why should I spend so much work, I don't even have enough interest money... It must be 700 million, and I can't do less."

Zhang Xiaofan sneered: "700 million, 700 million I can buy a villa in Donghai, do I need to buy an old house from you? 640 million, 40 more than that brother Gao, is this interesting enough?"

Gao Daquan smiled and said: "I think you really want to buy it, so we're not kidding. I definitely won't sell it for less than 650 million. If you really want to, give me 680 million, and I'll save so much money." Talk to you about the price."

Zhang Xiaofan pretended to ponder for a while, and said: "680 million is no problem, but it must be traded today." He looked at the time and said, "It's two o'clock in the afternoon, and the unit will go to work after a while, let's hurry up and go through the formalities Yes, it’s better to deliver early.”

Gao Daquan was eager to get the money as soon as possible. He said this in his heart, and he was so happy that he smiled and said, "No problem. I'll let someone bring over the household registration book."

Zhou Mingxuan said: "Would you like me to say hello? The director here in Donghai is also familiar with me, and it will be faster to issue a new certificate."

Zhang Xiaofan said with a smile: "Then I will trouble you, brother. I haven't gone through these procedures yet, so I have to trouble you for a while."

"Hehe, Brother Zhang was just joking. You helped me so much today, but I was worried that I couldn't find a chance to thank you." Zhou Mingxuan confessed: "I have brought all the documents, and left the other trivial matters to me. .”

Zhang Xiaofan thanked him repeatedly, saying that he wanted to call to transfer money, so he dragged Zhang Xiaotang out.

"How is it? Is it real?" Zhang Xiaotang hurriedly asked in a low voice as soon as he came downstairs.

Zhang Xiaofan said with certainty: "It's true, it's similar to the old man's, but much prettier."

With trembling hands, Zhang Xiaotang carefully took the "ashtray" in his hand, inspected it carefully, and said fondly: "The rhino horn cup of the old man is from African rhino horn, but this is from Asian rhino horn. There is a difference between the two." Quite large. The length of Asian rhinoceros horns is generally about one foot. The fibers of rhinoceros horns are thick, and the epidermis and inner flesh present thick filamentous fibers like sugarcane fibers. The cut surface of the bottom fracture is also similar to the section of sugarcane, with relatively dense fine grains , known as 'caviar pattern' or 'milk pattern'. The horns of Asian rhinoceros horns are relatively flexible, brown like dark honey, and opaque. There is a groove on the upper part of the front of the horn, which can often be seen on the edge of the bottom of the cup A section is recessed, and there is a bulge directly behind the horn, so that the mouth of the cup is not a regular oval. This phenomenon is commonly known as "tiangoudigang", also known as "horseshoe shape". Compared with African rhino horn Long and large, with two horns, one front and one back, the front is long and the back is short, the longest can reach [-] feet [-] inches in length. The horns of African rhinoceros horns have a strong gelatinous texture, relatively fine fibers, and the inner flesh is translucent The horn is not as flexible as the Asian rhino horn, it looks brittle and hard, and it will crack when it is affected by dry and wet climates, and the mouth of the cup is saddle-shaped. Look at this cup, it is obviously the long-extinct Asian rhino horn, and it is painted with..."

Zhang Xiaotang's eyes widened when he said this, and he said in a trembling voice: "This is a fucking picture of 'Rising Sun', my dear, this cup may be worth several million...Gao Daquan It makes ashtrays...”[

The two looked at each other, and both could see the deep contempt in the other's eyes. This damn prodigal has been defeated to a certain extent, which is beyond comparison.

Rhino horn is one of the most valuable ivory materials in the world. Rhino horn is rarer than ivory, and Asian rhino horn is the most precious. In ancient times, it was compared with luminous jade and moon beads. "Warring States Policy Chu Ce" once recorded that the king of Chu "sent envoys with hundreds of chariots to present the rhinoceros of chickens and horrified chickens, and the luminous jade to the king of Qin"; One of the Eight Treasures is rhino horn, but rhino horn carvings before the Song and Yuan Dynasties are extremely rare.

The reason why rhino horns are so precious and famous is that the ancients had the custom of worshiping the image of rhinoceros, such as patterns in bronze casting and porcelain carvings.In addition, there is another more important reason. Rhino horn itself is a kind of precious medicinal material, and its price is much more expensive than gold. The market price is at least a thousand yuan per gram, and more than ten thousand yuan for good ones.Of course, rhino horn has been a precious medicinal material since ancient times. If it is made into an exquisite handicraft, the materials consumed will be very large, and the value of its body will not be the same.

Take this Zhiri Gaosheng cup as an example. It is exquisitely carved and has profound meanings. It is a rare treasure, and it is also the best gift to give to people in the officialdom.If it is auctioned at an auction house, it will cost at least 400 million to get it.What's more, according to Gao Daquan's mouth, there is another rhino horn cup in the study. If you can make a pair, the two things add up to tens of millions.

As early as the 60s, not many people knew the real value of this thing. Even if someone got it, they would sell it in the pharmacy, and would not collect it as an antique. The old man of the Zhang family owned it The Rhino Horn Cup was also obtained in this way. During the turmoil in the 70s, I bought it for 500 yuan, and I still hold it as a treasure.

At this time, Gao Daquan led Zhou Mingxuan downstairs, and said with a smile, "How about it, when can we go to trade?"

"You can do it at any time." Zhang Xiaofan rolled his eyes and said, "But let's explain in advance that after you sell this house to me, you must leave the house cleanly, that is to say, every brick and tile must be left to me and cannot be taken away."

Gao Daquan thought about it, nodded and said: "No problem, I just want to take that colored pot away, it is a valuable thing." He bought all the antiques at home, so he would not care about other things, even a few Millions of rhino horn cups are used as ashtrays, what else can't be done.

Zhang Xiaotang said in a hurry: "I bought that color pot, how about 10 yuan?"

This guy Gao Daquan narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "No problem, the houses with millions of dollars have been sold, and they are not short of that stuff."
