Chapter 126 The Mysterious Buyer
Tofu scratched his head and said, "It seems that the boy surnamed Shi didn't lie to us. The price he gave is really the highest. Why don't we sell it to him."

I had calmed down at this moment, and I noticed something was wrong in my heart, and said: "You are stupid, people die for money, birds die for food, businessmen, there is no way to collect things at a loss, if this thing is really only worth 20, he Why are you willing to pay 50?"

Tofu blinked and said, "Yes, why?"

I was annoyed by him, and said: "Fix your brain, it's all rusty. We walked through so many stores just now, but they couldn't tell you the origin of this brand, so they kept the price very low." , but the stone lump revealed the origin of the divine card." When I mentioned this, Tofu immediately understood, slapped his thigh, and said, "That kid has a problem! So many experts don't know the origin of this thing , How could he see it at a glance!"

Yes, this is the crux of the matter.

I immediately patted Tofu on the shoulder and said, "Let's go to Shijulai Club."

After all our tossing and turning, it was already sunset and we went to Jushi Laishe, and saw Shi Geda sitting on the rattan chair at the door, touching his belly and sighing.As soon as he saw Tofu and me, he immediately jumped up, smiling, teasing, and said, "Hey, you two are back, have you got anything?"

He was asking the question knowingly. Tofu is the one that catches fire when it is lit. He immediately grabbed Shi Geda by the collar and said, "Boy, don't be complacent. Don't mess around with Grandpa Dou. If you don't expose your tricks, you will Really think that others are fools, hurry up and tell the truth, what do you want to do with this thing."

I originally wanted to ask questions slowly, but I didn't know that tofu is so impatient, so I said it all in one breath. Shi Geda smiled, stared at the two of us, and said: "Since I am willing to accept it, someone will naturally be willing to buy it. Trading, buying and selling does not ask about identity, I can't tell you this. The two of you just say whether you want to sell or not."

He looked sure enough.

That's right, after traveling all over Panjiayuan, he has the highest price here, and it's doubled. Under normal circumstances, if you don't sell it to him, who will you sell it to?This kid was determined to eat both of us, so he slapped Tofu's hand away, sat back on the wicker chair, and said, "If you haven't discussed it, then I'll wait." Looking at me, helpless.

Seeing Shi Geda's complacent appearance, I became angry, and said to myself that I, Chen Xuan, have a great reputation, can I still pretend to be your grandson for this 50 yuan?It's not that I'm so poor that I can't afford to eat anymore, what kind of uncle should I be.

Immediately waved his hand and said to Tofu: "Move the place, let's sell the fingers and Ruyi, and keep the god card as a souvenir. We are not short of this money. I heard that there is a famous barbecue in Panjiayuan. The baked goods are delicious, let's hurry up, order an oven, have some wine, have a good meal, and go."

Hearing what I said to eat, the stone lump immediately started to growl. Seeing that Tofu and I were about to leave, he became anxious and said quickly, "Oh, I, Shi Leiluo, have lived most of my life, and this is the first time I have met you so soft." If you don’t take it hard, you don’t make money when the money is in front of you. Can I accept it? I’ll make amends to the two of you. To be honest, there is a big customer waiting behind this."

Seeing that the grandson was finally willing to tell the truth, I asked, "Which big customer?"

Shi Geda looked around and said, "There are so many people in this place, it's inconvenient to talk. Seeing that it's getting dark and it's time for dinner, why don't we go to the barbecue restaurant you mentioned and talk while eating." The kid screamed while talking about his belly, rubbed his belly and laughed, and said: "It's not easy to make a living. I usually don't have dinner until eight o'clock. I can make do with steamed buns and pickles. There is a saying..."

I quickly interrupted him and motioned for him to lead the way.Youdao is gold in troubled times, and antiques in prosperous times. If you are in the antique business, if you don’t have a net worth of more than a million yuan, you will not be regarded as a colleague.

Crying poor with me, he is definitely crying to the wrong person.

Not long after, the three of us arrived at the barbecue restaurant. The decoration was quite elegant and there were many people. Shi Geda waved his hand and asked for a first-class private room. It was quiet and quiet. The pots, dipping materials, cups, saucers, and bowls were withdrawn.The taste of this restaurant is good. I have been tossing with tofu for a day. I wanted to chat while eating, but I couldn’t stop talking. The three of us were blowing on the air conditioner, drinking and eating meat, not to mention how enjoyable it was.

Chinese people like to eat first no matter what they do. No matter whether they know each other or not, no matter whether they have hatred or not, once they sit at the dinner table and drink three glasses of wine, the relationship will immediately become intimate.I was also dizzy from drinking, so I cheered up and asked Shi Geda, "Should we get down to business now?" Shi Geda was drunk, and with his tongue out, he patted Tofu's shoulder vigorously, and said, "Little Dou, Lord Dou , Brother Dou, you are my real brother, we met each other late... Oh, Brother Chen, you asked the buyer? This is a long story."

After a meal, the three of them were already brothers, and Shi Geda stopped talking nonsense, wiped his mouth, burped and drank tea, then looked at Tofu and me with serious expressions, and the pimples on his face were all gone. As if glowing red, he cleared his throat and said: "This matter has a lot of background. To be honest, the finger puller and Yu Ruyi in the hands of the two are unpopular items. They are not good things. They are really good things. Yes, it is the 'Black Wood Square Earrings'. I bet no one in the entire Panjiayuan knows this thing except me. The specific origin of this thing has to be told two years ago."

Shi Geda started to take root in Panjiayuan since his father's generation. Despite the small size of the store, in fact everything is in the dark.Shi Lai Jushe does not do business for ordinary people, but has its own network of relationships, and the people who come and go are regular customers.Most of the time, Shi Geda brings some counterfeit goods to the street stalls, which looks no different from ordinary hawkers, but in fact is for people to 'see clearly'.

The so-called "seeing the light" means reading the code.When he set up a stall, there would be a piece of white cloth folded into a triangle on the stall. Most people thought it was a rag at first glance, but it was actually Minger.The white cloth is folded into a triangle, which symbolizes the filial piety after death, which means to collect the things of the dead.Those who can see the way are mostly people in the industry, and when they see Shi Geda Ming'er, they will naturally contact him.

One day two years ago, a strange customer approached Shi Geda.

How strange is this customer?
He is a masked man.

If this matter was put in a TV series, it would not be unusual at all, but in modern times, it would be very weird. If anyone is on the street, if he sees a person with his face covered, he will probably be surprised. The rate of turning heads is definitely hundred percent.

The man entered Shi Geda's shop and took out a piece of A4 paper, on which he drew a pattern with a pencil, which was a pattern of an animal.It looks like a fox, but it has many tails and multiple claws, and its eyes are a three-ring pattern, which looks like it has three pupils.Shi Geda had never seen such a strange shape, so he asked the man what advice he had.

The man didn't leave his name, but just asked him if he had seen anything with this pattern, Shi Geda saw that he wasn't here for business, so his attitude turned cold, and he said he hadn't seen it.The man waited for a while, then left the blueprint, and said: "As long as I come across things with this pattern, I will accept them all, and I will pay three times the amount received." That is to say, if I The selling price of this 'Shenmu Square Earrings' is 50 yuan. After the matter is completed, that person will buy it from Shi Geda for 150 million yuan.

Of course, Shi Geda had been lowering the price before, probably because he wanted to buy at a low price, and then report a high price to the person who received the goods.

How can there be such a good thing in the sky, Shi Geda was skeptical at first, but when the man took off a corner of the mask, Shi Geda saw his face clearly, and felt that the God of Wealth was coming.

What does this man's face look like?Can Shi Geda turn pale with fright?
Speaking of this matter, I have to mention the three masters in the old BJ Dao Dou world.

The three families are Duan, Guo and Zhuan.

Among them, the Duan family's base camp has moved overseas, and they have started to return cultural relics abroad. Now, the biggest business in the capital is the Guo family and the Zhuan family.

The Guo family will not show it for the time being, because they are not up to date, and they have given birth to five women in a row. They have not yet cultivated successors, and the five young ladies are all delicate girls. How can they be willing to deal with the dead? Flying around Paris and New York all day long, dating rich men from all walks of life, forgetting all about my old profession, seeing that every day is getting worse.
