Funeral anchor: I have a building in Shanghai

Chapter 118 Old Overseas Chinese

Liu Li narrowed his eyes,

It looks like an orange cat stretched out to enjoy the sun in the back garden full of bougainvillea in the afternoon.

She was really comfortable being filmed by the fans in the live broadcast room.

A group of people lined up, knocking one over and over again,
Who can stand this.

Gu Xi saw Liu Li's intoxicated appearance, and if she met a bosom friend, she quickly filled the glass in front of Liu Li to [-]% full, and said proudly:

"My tea is not common in Shanghai. It is Tanyang Gongfu tea, the first of the three major black teas in Fujian."

"It was sold in Southeast Asia as far as Europe in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. At that time, Tanyang Street was one mile long and there were 36 tea shops."

"My Tanyang Gongfu tea, I made a special trip to Shouning to collect it. The soup is rosy in color and has the aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus."

When Gu Xi mentioned this tea, her eyebrows beamed with joy, and she was even more excited than seeing Da Heishi.

...Uh, are you misunderstanding something?
Liu Li could only nod embarrassingly, and then nodded again: "Good tea, um, fragrant."

She could tell that the soup was ruddy.

This is fine.

What is the first of the three major black teas in Fujian, I didn't drink it;

What sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance, I can't taste it.

Hmm, quite thirst-quenching.

However, Liu Li held back his words and did not dare to say them.

It's not because he's afraid that Boss Gu will be angry, but because he is afraid that if his boss has some underlying disease or the like, it will be hard to sell Da Hei Shi.

After being passively fed with water and all kinds of tea knowledge, an old man with a civilized stick walked in quickly.

The moment the sunlight that squeezed in from outside the shop was blocked, Liu Li turned his head and looked over, and immediately saw that the civilized stick was purely for pretending, the old man's legs and feet were almost faster than hers.

"Old overseas Chinese, you have good legs and feet."

Gu Xi stood up to greet her with a smile, and the teasing meant that she felt the same way as Liu Li.

"Old Gu, stop talking about those useless things, what about the good-looking Da Hei Shi you mentioned?"

It was only when the old overseas Chinese came over that he noticed Liu Li's existence. His footsteps slowed down, and with a bit of annoyance on his face, he gave Gu Xi a hard look.

Gu Xi followed with a wry smile.

Liu Li looked left and right, and when she understood, she covered her mouth and smiled lightly.

The old overseas Chinese showed it eagerly, unless he didn't buy it, how could the seller be soft?

It is impossible to bargain.

Gu Xi sighed: "Come on, let's look at things first."

The old overseas Chinese didn't care too much about being exposed. Hearing this, he nodded at Liu Li, and took out the monocular magnifying glass used by watch repairers. He wished he could lie down on the table and look at the big black pickup,
There is still a sound of tsk tsk in the mouth, repeatedly calling "good appearance".

After a while, he reluctantly put down the equipment, nodded and said, "It's genuine, and it's in excellent condition. There are signs of time and no signs of use. It's very rare."

"And it's a prefix I didn't receive, good stuff."

Gu Xi nodded with a smile, and stretched out her hand: "Come, drink tea."

Fan Er, an old overseas Chinese who chewed peonies, competed with Liu Li. He drank it all in one gulp, said "good tea" perfunctorily, and said to Gu Xi: "When my father went to Nanyang, he exchanged all his belongings for a big black pickle, and brought it with him. Defend yourself."

"At that time, people had never gone out, and they didn't know that they had gone to Nanyang. The money could neither be spent nor bought, so they kept hiding it as a thought."

"Afterwards, we managed to get better, and there was trouble in Nanyang again. Our family ran back to China to seek refuge. After many years, we went to Nanyang and started from scratch."

"My father passed away at that time, and he couldn't find the big black pick that he kept as a thought."

"Since then, I have fallen into trouble. Other antiques are fine, but this big black pick can't be pulled out once it gets into the eye."

At the beginning, the old overseas Chinese still talked to Gu Xi, and then turned to Liu Li.

Liu Li wasn't a stick either, so she immediately understood that this was for her.

"Cough cough."

She coughed dryly, and said perfunctorily in a "good tea" tone: "My condolences."

Storytelling is useful,

What business are you doing?
Just say how much?
Liu Li's attitude conveyed the words silently.

The old overseas Chinese choked for a moment, and said with a wry smile, "Miss, how much are you willing to part with?"

"You said."

"10?"

"not enough."

"That……"

"13, buy it now."

Liu Li's tone was decisive, and she reached out to touch the big black pick as she spoke, as if the old overseas Chinese just said "no", and she would turn around and leave in her pocket.

"……it is good!"

The old overseas Chinese complied and gave Gu Xi another look.

This price made him feel uncomfortable.

To be reasonable, at this price, it is not impossible for the old overseas Chinese to receive a big black bag.

The appearance can also be good.

Just spend a little more effort.

But the thing is right in front of my eyes, I let it run away, and then pay the same price to collect another one, maybe it will still be the same one, isn’t that a mess?
This price card has to be called a precise one, and it looks like an insider at a glance.

Liu Li looked young and a girl, so she didn't look like her, so it could only be...

Gu Xi bowed her head and drank her tea silently.

"make a deal!"

"Old Gu has a contract, and we will transfer the money."

Seeing that the dust had settled, the old overseas Chinese immediately got up in a hurry.

The contract was standard, Gu Xi took the initiative to deal with it with a guilty conscience, and the old overseas Chinese sat and drank tea opposite Liu Li.

Being idle is also idle, so we talked about the big black bag.

The old overseas Chinese was surprised: "So, this big black bag is not handed down from Ms. Liu's family?"

Liu Li shook her head: "No, I just picked up the leak from the stall outside."

Just as Gu Xi came back with the printed contract, she heard this and confirmed it: "That's right, when Ms. Liu came in, the big black bag was still sewn into the old clothes, and it was shaken out in front of me."

The two looked at Liu Li together.

Liu Li had no choice but to briefly talk about the process of picking up leaks. After listening, the two thought about it, and the old overseas Chinese said with emotion:
"A loving father and a filial son, what a mistake."

Actually, Liu Li didn't quite understand it. She came here relying on the blood of "Merry Eyes" the whole time, so she had to look inscrutable, and listened to the old overseas Chinese and Gu Xi's analysis one by one.

"Before the old man died, he said that he would not sell books. This is the normal reaction of book lovers and scholars. After all, they are facing the loess and their backs are facing the sky, and turning over is only among the books."

"When he refers to old clothes again, it's probably not to make his son really feel bad. He can sell clothes but not books. He wants to say that there are money sewn inside the clothes."

"It should be. The old man is an educated youth. That big black bag should have been taken with him when he went to the countryside. There is nowhere to spend it in the countryside. My father also wants to leave it to his children as the family fortune."

"If you don't finish a sentence, if you don't say it clearly, people will pass by."

"His son is a filial son. Although he didn't understand what the old man meant, he kept the book and the old man's clothes together, so that it can be preserved until now."

"This... a coincidence."

The old overseas Chinese and Gu Xi looked at Liu Li with envy.

Not for the 13 yuan.

This little money is nothing to the two of them. What they envy is the story of picking up leaks. If it were them, they could blow it up in the circle for a year!
"Go away."

The old overseas Chinese stole Gu Xi's box, carefully put the big black card into it, carried it and left.

Before leaving, he did not forget to leave a contact information for Liu Li, saying that he could contact him if he had any antiques from Nanyang.

Watching the old overseas Chinese leave, Liu Li smiled and said to Gu Xi: "Boss Gu, thank you very much. According to the rules, you have to pay the matchmaking fee."

In the antique industry, matchmaking has its own rules.

There is a saying that three breaks two.

But Liu Li didn't intend to follow the rules. She stretched out her hand and pushed the three yuan and five yuan, which were also the second set of RMB, as well as those miscellaneous coins, and said, "Just use these to pay."

With a turnover of 10,000+, according to the rules, the money for matchmaking is a few thousand dollars less than that.

These are slightly more.

Gu Xi didn't care if it was more or less, and nodded with a smile.

"That's it. I'll go out for a stroll and come back to bother Boss Gu later."

After Liu Li finished speaking, she glanced at the mobile phone whose barrage exploded, and walked out of the store.

"Okay, okay, come and drink tea when you have time."

Gu Xi sent Liu Li out of the store, watched her back leave, and was about to turn around to go back when she reacted abruptly:
"Wait, she said come back later, could it mean..."

"...Can you pick up another leak later?"

Gu Xi smiled self-consciously:
"How is it possible? I really think too much."
