After making a wish, financial freedom

Chapter 138
The parents of this family are honest people and do not want to sell.

"This is left by the child's father. He is used to it, so he is reluctant to sell it like this."

It's normal to not want to sell old objects that you are used to and have feelings for.

Li Zhuo glanced at their son, who was in his thirties and had more active eyes.

Li Zhuo smiled and said to him:

"If you have a place where you need money urgently, this is an opportunity."

The eldest brother immediately became restless. Indeed, there is no such store in this village. It is indeed a rare opportunity for someone willing to spend money on something that doesn't matter to him.

He turned around and asked:
"Dad, how did our pot come here?"

The old man thought about it and said:

"It was early at that time. It must have been four or fifty years ago. Your grandfather bought it in a big store in Hankou. He said it was a good thing, but because he spent a lot of money, he was scolded by your grandmother."

store bought?

This big brother was a little discouraged when he heard it. You can buy it in the store. How good can this be?

But it cost a lot of money back then, so it should be worth it now, right?
The elder brother asked Li Zhuo:

"Brother, do you know what this is?"

Li Zhuo only knew that it was chosen by the parrot, and it was probably worth a lot, but he really couldn't say what it was.

He spread his hands:
"I don't know, it's just a teapot anyway."

The big brother said:
"Why don't you give me a price, brother?"

Li Zhuo asked the old man next to him:

"Master, how much did your father pay for this pot?"

The old man shook his head:

"My grandfather didn't tell me. At that time, my mother scolded me so fiercely that he didn't dare to use it. He didn't mention it until he died."

Li Zhuo nodded and said:

"The uncle also said that this is bought from a store, it cannot be an antique, this is something we usually use, it was expensive at the time, now I will give you a decent price, do you see 10 lines?"

As soon as the price was mentioned, the elder brother became a little excited.

Willing to spend so much money on things for his pets, it is obvious that this young man is really rich.

Who would think too much money?He wants more.

He told Li Zhuo:

"I'll discuss with my parents, brother, wait a moment."

"Okay, you can discuss it."

The eldest brother pulled his parents aside, and the three discussed it.

Li Zhuo picked up the parrot, and carefully held the sand pot in his hand.

This pot is not big, and Li Zhuo can easily hold it with one hand. It gives people the feeling that it is slightly reddish in color and has three legs. It looks a little warm and reflective.

Li Zhuo couldn't see a one, two, or three, so he took a few glances and didn't bother.

After discussing with his parents, the eldest brother over there came over and said:

"To be honest, brother, this pot is definitely not bad, because I spent a lot of money when I bought it. Now I am quite short of money. I bought a house in the suburbs and have a lot of mortgage. If you want it, brother, you can get 30 yuan. Take it away."

This is a wild asking price.

In fact, Li Zhuo is really willing to give 30 yuan. Although he doesn't understand this thing, he understands his golden finger, and it has never been empty.

But at this time, I really dare not give as much as I want, because I am afraid that as soon as I promise, I will immediately change my mind and ask for a high and scary price.

Li Zhuo pursed his lips, looked at the parrot in his hand, and then at the sand pot.

Said:

"I don't mind spending some money for my pet, but there is a basic premise, that is, I feel comfortable spending the money. The price you quoted, brother, makes me feel like I have been taken advantage of. Comfortable."

He handed the sand pot to his elder brother casually, and said:
"It's not worth tossing away my own happiness for the happiness of this little guy. Take it, brother. I'll buy my parrot a gift it likes when I go back."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left without the slightest nostalgia.

Seeing that Li Zhuo was about to leave, the eldest brother hurriedly followed behind and said:

"Brother, don't go, this is a good thing, it's very valuable, how much are you willing to give? Twenty is okay?... Fifteen is okay? Half off, fifteen..."

Li Zhuo hesitated for a moment, paused, then turned around and said:

"Twelve at most, I won't accompany you any more."

"You can give me some more, can the fourteenth line?"

"Twelve, I don't know if it's a good thing, and I don't really care, it's just because my parrot likes it..."

"Thirteen, this has dropped a lot, brother, you are a rich man, and you don't care about this..." The eldest brother dared not be stubborn.

Li Zhuo seemed to be moved, and finally said reluctantly:
"Okay, then thirteen, that's the price."

The elder brother breathed a sigh of relief and felt that he had earned it.

An unknown teapot, a thing that is often used at home and will be accidentally broken someday, was sold for a high price.

It's right to give him this feeling, so that if he knows that this thing is expensive, he will feel unbalanced later.

In fact, Li Zhuo could have offered a few thousand yuan at the beginning, and with a little more price, he would have won the pot.

The reason why he asked for [-] yuan was also because he still had a bit of conscience, and he didn't want them to lose any benefits.

So from the point of view of doing business, he is not qualified this time.

But his personality is like this, if it is a normal business, such as producing products, or getting paid for providing services, no matter how much he earns, he thinks he deserves it.

But in this situation, he is still willing to keep the bottom line.

After transferring 13 yuan to the eldest brother, Li Zhuo was about to leave with the sand pot. At this time, the elder brother's parents came out and gave him a strong cloth bag for easy filling of the sand pot.

Li Zhuo thanked him, put the sand pot into the cloth bag, and then took the parrot and left with the bag.

Walking out of the col, passing the paddy fields, he returned to the side of the road.

Opening the car door, Li Zhuo got in, and the parrot also became a chatterbox at this time:
"Okay, you, turn around and leave after you say you don't want to buy it, I've been cheated before..."

Li Zhuo found that this bird was very smart. For example, when Li Zhuo bought the sand pot just now, it didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, and it didn't even bark.

Li Zhuo nodded, this bird can clearly distinguish the occasion and has a sense of proportion.

Now he was the only one left, babbling on and on.

Li Zhuo was quite happy, and said with a smile:
"Come on, let's go back. What do you want to eat? I'll get someone to buy it for you when I go back."

The parrot smacked and said loudly:
"Give me some millet. I used to eat it when I was young, but I haven't eaten it since. I still miss the taste."

It's so simple, I didn't expect the parrot to be easy to feed.

Eat fruits and vegetables, nuts, and millet and rice, which is really good.

After returning to the hotel, Li Zhuo called the housekeeper and asked her to buy some millet.

The butler was also unresponsive, and asked confusedly:
"Mr. Li, do you want millet porridge? I'll ask the kitchen to make it for you and bring it to you?"

Li Zhuo waved his hand and pointed to the parrot on his shoulder:
"Bought it!"

"Oh, I'm sorry, I understand, okay, Mr. Li, I'll go buy it right away." She left in a hurry after speaking.

cockatiel said:

"It doesn't look very smart."

Li Zhuo smiled and said:

"That's right, not as smart as you."

"Ha, what are you talking about?" the parrot was unhappy, "Are you discriminating against me?"

It jumped off Li Zhuo's shoulder and began to vent its anger on the fruits and nuts on the coffee table, pushing them all off the table.

Li Zhuo: ...

This guy is also a person who loses his temper when he disagrees with him, so he is not easy to serve.

Having a headache, Li Zhuo made a video chat with Xiaobai.

She was working in the company at the moment, and she was startled when she received the video chat, and hurried to the tea room.

"Hey, why are you calling me all of a sudden." Xiaobai's pretty face appeared in the video, and his gentle voice quickly came over.

Li Zhuo said:

"I'm in Hankou now, and I bought a parrot by chance, but I'm busy, running around every day, so I don't have time to take care of it, so I just want to ask if you can take care of it for me?"

Xiaobai smiled and said almost without thinking:
"Okay, find me a companion, let me see it."

Xiaobai has a really nice personality and has always been gentle.

Li Zhuo smiled gratefully at her, then turned the camera to face the parrot, and said in his mouth:
"It doesn't have a name yet, you can give it one. In addition, this guy has a bad personality, and he was still losing his temper just now."

The cockatiel turned his head at this moment and saw He Xiaobai on the phone.

"Wahhahahahaha~, beauty!"

Li Zhuo: ...

By the way, your laughter is like a pervert.

Li Zhuo turned the phone around and said to himself:

"See, it is this kind of parrot with a broken mouth, do you think it can be raised?"

"Yes, I think it's pretty good. It can talk, is lively and interesting, and likes to interact. How nice it is."

The parrot flew to Li Zhuo's shoulder, happily put its head into the camera range, and nodded to Xiaobai, obviously it liked Xiaobai very much.

Xiaobai also likes this beautiful cockatiel with a pinch of yellow feathers, so he takes the initiative to say hello to it.

Li Zhuo exhorted:
"You help me raise it, but it has a strong ability to imitate sounds, so we still need to pay attention to privacy."

Xiaobai smiled and said:

"okay, I get it."

After making arrangements, Xiaobai hung up the phone and went back to work.

Li Zhuo put down the phone, when the butler knocked on the door and came in, she came in with a small bag in her hand.

"Mr. Li, I just bought a bag of millet produced in Qinzhou, which is recognized as the best in China."

Li Zhuo nodded and said:
"Well, thank you for your hard work. Help me take care of my parrot, and be careful not to feed it too much."

"Okay, Mr. Li."

Li Zhuo entered the study room, and after closing the door, he began to think about how to ship the goods.

Now the things he finds are more expensive, and the price is in the millions, and the only one who can eat them normally is probably Zheng Heng.

After all, he is doing intermediary business, and he will sell it soon after buying it.

Teacher Jin Zixu is different, he is a collector, no matter how rich he is, his digestion ability is limited after all.

After thinking it over, he called Zheng Heng and invited him to hang out.

Zheng Heng is also a wonderful person, he knew what he wanted to do as soon as he heard it, and said with a smile:

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow, brother, do you have any goods to ship recently?"

Li Zhuo smiled and said:

"By the way, it's not only for fun, but also for business."

"Haha, you're right. Then I'll drive there. I guess I'll arrive tomorrow night. See you then."

"it is good……"

hang up the phone.

Here comes the headache. Air consignment for parrots is very troublesome. Animal inspection certificates, health and immunization certificates, etc. are required, and applications must be made in advance, and the time is too late.

But there is a way, Li Zhuo asked the housekeeper to invite the manager of the car dealer who rented a car to the hotel.

The manager of the car dealership was surnamed Liu. After being introduced to the presidential suite, it was the first time he entered the presidential suite of a five-star hotel. He immediately became a little reserved and respectful.

Li Zhuo took him to the balcony to sit down and drink tea, and asked the car dealer to send two drivers to take turns to escort his parrot back to Hangzhou.

The fee was very generous, and the manager immediately agreed repeatedly.

Li Zhuo smiled and said:

"I know it's hard work to drive a long distance. How about this? After the two masters arrive safely in Hangzhou, I will each give a bonus of 2000 yuan to express my gratitude."

"Thank you Mr. Li! Don't worry, I will send the most experienced and prudent driver to ensure that your parrot returns home safely and smoothly."

"Okay, after you choose the driver, let them come here, and I'll treat you to dinner."

The reason why I invited them to dinner is also to meet the driver and see how they are.

Li Zhuo was worried that they would not do their best and would abuse his birds along the way.

He can't stand this.

It was time for dinner, the manager went to the balcony and made a few phone calls.

Half an hour later, with the parrot on his shoulders, Li Zhuo led the three of them to the hotel's Bentley Mulsanne concierge car to eat at Wuhan Western Cuisine Ceiling Heitale Restaurant.

The two drivers, Li Zhuo, have already seen it. One is in his 40s and looks relatively stable; the other is very young and seems to be quite honest.

The candidate was okay, Li Zhuo didn't say anything.

After arriving at the hotel, Li Zhuo ordered Maine Lobster with Cheese Sauce, Aged Tuna, French Roasted Chicken and Duck, Salmon with Fennel Head, Black Angus Filet, New Zealand Crawfish Soup and so on.

They are all expensive, things that they don't usually eat.

……

It cost more than 7000 to eat a meal.

It was nothing to Li Zhuo, but to the few people in the car dealership, it should be the ceiling for them to go out to eat.

Li Zhuo said at this time:
"Inviting you to dinner, I want you to do your best. My parrot will ask you on the way, and I will give you bonuses when I arrive in Hangzhou."

The older driver was more knowledgeable and said:

"Don't worry, boss, we will definitely take good care of your parrot and ensure that it will be sent to Hangzhou safely and comfortably."

The younger ones nodded again and again:
"Don't worry! There will be no problem."

The drivers agreed to pick up the parrot at the hotel at 7 o'clock the next morning and set off. They would arrive in Hangzhou in the evening.

Li Zhuo agreed.

So, from that night, there was a rumor in Hankou:

A rich second generation in Hangzhou spent tens of thousands of dollars just to let his pet bird return to Hangzhou safely while enjoying the best service...

The rumor was accurate at the beginning, until later it evolved into——

A certain rich second generation in Hangzhou spent millions of dollars, hired the best driver in Hankou, sat in a Bentley Mulsanne worth tens of millions, and hired seven or eight beauties to accompany him, just to give his big bird Provide the best service……

Three people become a tiger, and it becomes a bit weird at the end...
