The daily life of the fortune teller who was forced to open business

Chapter 104

This bracelet is a good thing, no doubt about it.

Guo Xingxian glanced at it twice: "I'm a little uncertain about the price, I always think this price is too high."

"How to say?" Nan Shi looked at the big screen greedily, and was a little reluctant to look away: "The price of things from the Yongzheng period is not an exaggeration, right?"

"It's hard to say." Guo Xingxian zoomed in on the 3D model made on the tablet, pointed to a small place, and motioned Nanshi to look at the screen, and said, "Look at a giant clam, there has already appeared on it." There is a crack, but it is blocked by the lotus pattern, so you can't see it."

"This kind of bracelet, as long as one bead is broken, it's worthless." Guo Xingxian took out her mobile phone and transferred a few files to show Nanshi. They were all time-consuming bracelets, but Because the beads inside have been replaced, the value has plummeted. The only exception is that there is a string of exchanged beads that is relatively close in age, and the replaced beads are the east beads on the crown of a certain emperor.

But this is a special case. The bracelet was originally unremarkable. The main reason is that this East Pearl has a record in history, so the price has skyrocketed instead.

All the people present were old people who had been in business for more than ten years or decades. It is impossible for Guo Xingxian to see that this bracelet is not right. Someone opened his mouth and shouted: "You Lihua Pavilion is not kind! Yes, right on That giant clam, don’t move the camera away! Zoom in for me!”

The host said calmly: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from all the shopkeepers—but it's also good to let all the bosses know that our Lihua Pavilion never falsifies! Come, aim at the giant clam beads."

The camera zoomed in all of a sudden, the host put on gloves, picked up the things himself and showed them off: "This giant clam had cracks before it was sent to our Lihua Pavilion, it was a thing of the Yongzheng period, after all, If we want to change it, it’s not that we can’t get it out, but we just left it for the bosses to take a look, and we didn’t change it!”

Someone shouted again: "How dare you bid 80?"

The host laughed and said: "The price here, whether it is worth it or not, the bosses know it well! I won't say much, lest you say that I sell myself and boast. If everyone is optimistic, we can start!"

After a while of whispering, the auction hammer rang three times, and the venue gradually quieted down. The host shouted: "Start the auction!"

silence.

This is the first item in the field that no one bids on.

Nan Shi originally wanted to bid, but he didn't want to be too eager. The bidding time is 5 minutes, and it will be genre if no one bids within 5 minutes. He can wait to see if there are other quotations.

His staring action was too obvious, Guo Xingxian asked him sideways, "Did you see it?"

"Well, it's a bit eye-catching." Nan Shi said pretending to be normal.

"80 to buy an eye socket? Nanshi, you are rich too!" After Guo Xingxian finished speaking, he continued: "Wait a minute, don't rush to bid too much, be careful of being overwhelmed."

Buying things is also knowledgeable. If such an unpopular thing is too deliberate in the opening and final bidding, it is best to follow the middle way and bid a price in the middle, so that people can't figure out who the buyer is. What does it mean.

It is necessary to know that treasures have a price, but thoughts are priceless. In this industry, it is never uncommon for buyers to pay a price far higher than the value of the item for something that is pleasing to the eye.

1 minute, 2 minutes, and at the 3rd minute, Nan Shi made a price.

"The boss of No. 36 is magnificent! 80! Is there a higher one?" The host first praised Nanshi, then raised his hands and cupped his fists in the direction of Nanshi. It’s going to be a genre! Our Lihua Pavilion can’t afford to lose this person, haha!”

Immediately, the number on the big screen jumped to 85, and someone laughed and said, "Who is showing such a pitiful whole?!——I'll show you face!"

"Thank you, boss! Boss is generous!" The host waved his hand to the other side again.

Without much hesitation, Nan Shi added it to 88, which is an auspicious number.

Guo Xingxian didn't pay attention, so he asked Nan Shi to increase the price. He hated iron and said, "Why are you so anxious! Now it's over, I know you want this thing!"

"88! Fafa! Thank you, boss No. 36, for your kindness..." Before the host finished speaking, the price jumped to 90, and then it started to jump up to 95, and it didn't stop until [-]. .

Nan Shi responded, "I really want it."

Guo Xingxian patted him on the shoulder: "How much do you plan to take?"

Nan Shi glanced at his mobile phone deposit: "Within 500 million?"

"Oh, it's all right." Guo Xingxian took the tablet, and the old god was still there, waiting for the time to pass by every minute and every second, until it reached the median, and then slowly paid 96, showing that he had already started If you hesitate, if you raise the price again, you won't do it.

Sure enough, after this price, no one bid again, and the time quickly jumped to the countdown. The host said: "Is there really no boss who is interested in it? Without me, the hammer will fall!"

The auction hammer rang again and again, and at the second sound, Nan Shi also heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

He had actually thought about it, with Qingying Qinglan serving by his side, he wanted to wear this bracelet every day, and it was impossible to hide it from Chi You.But what if Chi You found out?It's just a similar bracelet, and he said lightly, "wearing the same bracelet will let others know that we are from the same family" and it passed, and Chi You couldn't catch any strange problems.

No one will find it strange to learn from one school and use the same accessories.

The host raised his hand, as long as the hammer fell, the thing would belong to Nan Shi.At this moment, the number on the big screen suddenly jumped, and this jump directly jumped to 200 million.

The host was also shocked: "Hey? Boss No. 66, you didn't even tell me, it scared me!"

A slender figure appeared beside the railing of Box 66. It looked like a beautiful woman, but she was not young at first glance: "If your hammer fell any faster, I would have missed it."

The woman raised her voice and said, "No. 36, let me have this thing. I need it urgently. When I get a good one later, I will inform you to pick it up."

"So it's Boss Gu?"

"Boss Gu is generous, it seems that he is really in a hurry."

There were voices of discussion below, Guo Xingxian looked at Nan Shi, and just as he was about to say something, there was a knock on the door of the box, and Lao Zhang's voice came in from outside: "Mr. Nan, Mr. Guo?"

"Come in." Guo Xingxian yelled, and Lao Zhang came in. He glanced at Nan Shi, closed the door of the box with his backhand, and reminded: "I just wanted to remind this boss Gu when he made a move. , Boss Gu's tricks are very powerful. Since she said so, it seems that she really needs it urgently. Why don't you two gentlemen let her..."

He hesitated for a moment, and added a sentence pointedly: "...to save trouble."

This was said sincerely, Guo Xingxian asked Nan Shi, "How is it? Do you want to add more?"

"Add it, add 66." Nan Shi frowned, and called the waiter sideways: "Please go to Box [-] and give your business card to Boss Gu, and say that you want Boss Gu to show you some face. If it works, I'll make it up to her later."

When Lao Zhang heard this, he whispered, "How about I go for Mr. Nan? I'm afraid she can't tell."

Nan Shi thought for a while, then handed the business card to Lao Zhang: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

Next, Guo Xingxian added 300, and the other party followed directly to [-] million. Nanshi was not in a hurry, and waited for Lao Zhang to notify the other party. When the time was almost up, he asked Guo Xingxian to add [-] to continue the time.

But this time, the other party didn't add 100 million one, but just like Nan Shi and the others, only [-] was added, and it seemed that the time was the same as the continuation time. It should be that Lao Zhang had arrived.

The host is an old expert, and he smiled when he heard the words: "Yo! It seems that the two bosses have discussed it!"

Everyone was also puzzled, and once again wanted to take care of the boss's business, they stopped talking.

Gu Haizhu is a well-known person in the antique business in W City. Although he looks innocent now, he is the owner of a big building, but everyone knows how the other party started his business. It is not very clean. Such troublesome people do not get involved Best of all, it can be regarded as giving Boss Gu a face.

"Wait! Old Wang! Let someone serve a plate of snacks! The food is cold!"

The host said: "Okay, okay! Wait for the bosses, come and give the bosses a box of eight treasures, I invite you!"

After a while, Lao Zhang came back, and he said: "Mr. Nan, I'm sorry, the matter can't be done. Boss Gu said that she understood, but she has to take the things first, and wait for you in the box after the auction is over. "

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Nan Shi responded with a calm face, and he didn't see any emotions. He took the tablet and directly increased the price to 500 million. As expected, the price was immediately chased to 800 million.

In 10 minutes, the price of this bracelet doubled tenfold.

At this price, Nanshi will not pursue it anymore. After 5 minutes, the three hammers settled, and the bracelet returned to Boss Gu.

Guo Xingxian patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, don't be so sullen, you're so ugly... If you like it, I'll go home and find materials for you to make a bunch of, isn't it just a lotus pattern? Carve this, I will carve you a nine-story lotus flower, it will definitely look better than this string."

Nan Shi didn't speak, and Guo Xingxian said again: "Then I asked my grandfather to be the head office for you? My grandfather... oh, you can't invite a friend of my grandfather. It is absolutely no problem to carve twenty or thirty layers of beads."

The grandpa who passed Xingxian passed away a long time ago. He was the one who held the Tai Chi sword to fight south last time. His father couldn't teach him, so he went to offer incense, and Xingxian would be entrusted with a dream after midnight, and he would take a master-level one-on-one class.

Later, he dreamed a lot, and his grandfather brought his friends to teach Xingxian. He was a big man who could be called a national player. Of course he passed away, but it doesn't prevent him from teaching some tricks in his dreams!

"Thanks, brother." Nan Shi twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a smile.

Guo Xingxian was a little baffled, Nanshi usually didn't have such a big temper, why was he so upset today?

Anyway, since the Chinese New Year, he seems to be not quite right, so he won't tell me if I ask him.

Hey, the child has grown up and can't help his father.

***

When it came to the finale, naturally there was no room for the two of them to join in the fun.The waiters put fruit plates on all the tables, indicating that today's auction is over.

Nan Shi sat in the private room without moving, thinking whether it was worth it for such a big deal to waste the bracelet, he got too angry and figured it out, isn't it the same style? Xingxian can make dozens of skewers for him - as for whether they have been consecrated or not, what does it matter?Did he want to buy it just because the bracelet had been opened?

It's just a little low.

He knew that he was asking extravagantly, and he had forcibly endured it so as not to show his feet in front of Chi You, and he felt that he could continue to endure it until the clouds were calm and the wind was calm.But now that he is so greedy, there are side effects.

Maybe he was warned in the dark, he shouldn't even have this bit of greed.

Forget it, no offense.

Nan Shi smiled slightly, and said sideways: "Okay, let's go back."

Guo Xingxian was surprised: "Aren't you still looking for that Boss Gu?"

"A broken bracelet, is it worth my effort?" Nan Shi got up, and said to him with a smile: "That's it, you can make me an exactly the same one later, and I'll go home and find it." I will give you some materials, and I will pay you as labor if you have more."

Guo Xingxian raised his eyebrows and said: "That's not necessary, there is no shortage of materials, just find me a piece of ancient jade and it will be done!"

"Are you robbing? Are you worthy?" Nan Shi sneered disdainfully: "Wait a few decades later, when you become famous and your things can be put in the National Museum, then tell me this!"

"You don't understand now, do you? This is called early investment!"

Nan Shi just ignored him, turned his face and greeted Lao Zhang and said goodbye. The two went out talking and laughing. The parking lot was not far away. As soon as Nan Shi took out the keys, there was a man in black The man in the suit came over and said very politely, "Mr. Nan, our boss Gu is waiting for you."

"Tell you, Boss Gu, that this is not a big deal. I don't want anything." Nan Shi shrugged and walked away from him. Unexpectedly, the other party also took a step back, just blocking Nan Shi's way: "Mr. Nan, our boss Gu is waiting for you."

"Are you looking for something?" Guo Xingxian wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Nan Shi: "Don't pay attention to him, he doesn't dare to do anything—you have the ability to stand in front of my car and bet if I dare to step on it." accelerator."

After hearing this, the man in black took another step back, not daring to block Nanshi any more.

The two went back to the hotel smoothly, and each freshened up, but Nan Shi felt hungry again—oh, it wasn't hungry, it should be said that he was hungry.In fact, the meal at Lihuage was quite good, but at that time, all the attention was on the auction, so I felt lonely after eating.

There is an egg-popped toast around the hotel that is delicious. The scrambled eggs are tender and smooth. The well-fried fat beef is paired with the toast slices made of pure milk. Nanshi was shocked after eating it once. Now I want to eat it. I woke up and ordered two more, one for today and one for tomorrow's breakfast.

About half an hour later, the voice of the robot delivering food came from outside the door: "1506, your food has arrived—!"

Nan Shi went to open the door, and saw a group of people standing outside, led by the charming Boss Gu, who saw Nan Shi open the door, and smiled sweetly: "Mr. Nan, what a coincidence."

"Boss Gu? Coincidentally." Nan Shi took the takeaway from the robot, then turned around and closed the door.

Gu Haizhu, who was slammed at the door, didn't realize it for a while. There are basically no people who dared to do this to her in these years. She looked sideways at Lao Zhang: "What's going on?"

There were two black suits standing next to Lao Zhang, sticking them very close, Lao Zhang smiled reluctantly and said: "You...you know that everyone in that line of work pays attention to rules, it's too late, if you don't care about the boss tomorrow Come again? Seriously make an appointment with Mr. Nan, it’s easy to handle things, isn’t it? They are all in business, harmony makes money! Peace makes money!”

Gu Haizhu sneered, and her heart was filled with anger, but she had to admit that what Lao Zhang said made sense, she suppressed her anger, raised her eyebrows and looked at Lao Zhang: "Then I will leave this matter to you, will it work? "

Lao Zhang couldn't help regretting, why did he patronize Mr. Nan at that time and forget that this person in front of him is also a evil star?Mr. Nan seems to have a good temper, but he is not like an ordinary person, and he is not sure if he has the face to ask Nan to agree.

Apart from being entrusted by Li Wenbai and Mrs. Li, he also deliberately wanted to curry favor with Nan Shi - he was a land shoveler, specializing in buying and selling. Who knows what unclean things he would receive someday? ?With someone like Nan Shi here, that's the protection he just needs!

But in the current situation, Boss Gu is not a good-natured character, and he doesn't accept negative results very much.

When he didn't know how to answer, the door in front of him creaked open again, Boss Gu put on a smile again in an instant, before he could speak, he saw Nan Shi in front of him and said: "Mr. Just in time, come in."

"Hey! I'll come." Lao Zhang subconsciously took a step forward and entered the door, and then the door closed again with a snap.

Completely ignored Gu Haizhu.

When Lao Zhang entered the door, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then was frightened by the sound of closing the door: "...Mr. Nan, why are you doing this?... Forget it, thank you, Mr. Nan."

Nan Shi had already sat down on the sofa. He gnawed on his fried egg toast and said, "You run for me. I haven't had time to thank you yet. Why are you thanking me? Come on, sit down!" I bought two more, do you want to eat some together?"

"Okay, thank you." Lao Zhang sat down, only sitting on half of his buttocks, and heaved a sigh of relief.Just at this moment, Xingxian also came out smelling the fragrance. Seeing Lao Zhang sitting, he asked, "Why is Mr. Zhang here?"

Nan Shi waved his hand, and handed him a toast: "It's not about what happened at night, it's all my fault, what kind of spectacle is it, it hurts people."

"Not to mention, not to mention!" Lao Zhang said hastily.

"Oh." Guo Xingxian also sat down, gloating and said: "I told you to stop pretending, after all, you will be struck by lightning."

Nan Shi: "...Eat yours! Close your anus!"

Lao Zhang didn't dare to intervene, he lowered his head and took two mouthfuls of hot food. With something in his stomach, he calmed down, and he couldn't help persuading him: "Mr. Nan, why don't you schedule a time to see him tomorrow Boss Gu, right? Boss Gu is not easy to offend, and she only came on request, you see... it's better to settle an enemy than to make a knot, isn't it?"

Nan Shi sneered when he heard this: "There is no such rule. Asking for help should look like asking for help. I don't think Boss Gu is here to ask for help, but he seems to come to seek revenge—Mr. Zhang, just go home and live your life. Nothing will happen."

This is to give Lao Zhang a reassurance that Nanshi is responsible for this matter, and it will not be his fault, so he can rest assured.

The matter of Mrs. Li has already reached Lao Zhang's ears. He has a lot of trust in Nan Shi. He nodded and said, "Thank you, Mr. Nan. With your words, I feel relieved."

Yes, there is also Mrs. Li!With this level of relationship, Boss Gu would not dare to mess around.

***

On the third day, Nan Shi and Guo Xingxian moved separately, Guo Xingxian took his father's order to visit a relative, because it was too early to wake up, Nan Shi was too lazy to follow, and asked Ling Qinglan to follow Guo Xingxian , so as to avoid the trouble that Boss Gu turned around to find Xingxian yesterday.

He himself fell asleep in the hotel and had a casual lunch, then took two changes of clothes and went downstairs to soak in the hot spring.

There are several types of hot springs in the hotel. There are large bathhouses and single-family ones. Those who live in VIP suites like Nanshi can naturally enjoy separate hot springs. Although they are not big, they are surrounded by Separated by bamboo fences, privacy is relatively strong.

Nanshi often soaked in hot springs at home, and he didn't feel uncomfortable when he went in, so he sighed comfortably.Qing Ying came out and packed things for Nan Shi: "Master, do you want to press it for you?"

Nan Shi was lying on the edge of the pool, and just smiled when he heard the words: "Forget it, with your skill, if you crush my bones, who am I going to cry with?"

"Master!" Qingying glared at Nan Shi angrily—she is indeed not as good as Qinglan in serving others, but she is not the one who serves the internal affairs in the first place!If it had to be counted, if Qing Lan belonged to the nanny, she would be the bodyguard.

"That's all right, it's rare to come out, if you want to soak, come down quickly." Naturally, it is impossible for Qingying and Nan Shi to soak in the same pool at home, and it doesn't matter so much outside, anyway, Nan Shi Wearing a bathrobe specially designed for bathing in hot springs is not unattractive. As for Qingying wanting to take a bath, it doesn't make any difference whether she takes off her clothes or not.

The clothes were not real in the first place, and Nan Shi himself had been a ghost before, so he didn't know anything about it.

Qingying is also polite to Nanshi, and she is used to Nanshi's style when she is around Nanshi during this time, the closer she is to Nanshi, the less she likes them being too respectful and well-behaved. Just let go.

Of course, it's only in private, and when there are other people, you must abide by the rules meticulously.

The two soaked quietly for a while, and Qingying suddenly said: "Someone is here."

Nan Shi said softly, "Come on."

Not long after, the bamboo fence was opened, and it was indeed Gu Haizhu who came in.

Nan Shi said lightly, "Boss Gu, it's not the custom to come here without invitation."

Gu Haizhu's complexion remained unchanged: "I've been paying three visits to that thatched cottage, Mr. Nan really doesn't want to give me face?"

"You don't have that much face yet."

Gu Haizhu looked cold, "Shame on you."

As soon as she went back yesterday, she received a call from Mrs. Li, telling her not to embarrass Mr. Nan, and to beat and beat him, with a hint of threat in it.Who is she, Gu Haizhu?Heh, she doesn't care if Mr. Nan, who is in his twenties, has any extraordinary abilities, what she wants to do must be done.

"Mr. Nan has to give this face today even if he doesn't want to."

Nan Shi closed his eyes slightly: "Oh?"

When the wind blows, the water vapor on the hot spring condenses and blows towards Gu Haizhu's face.

The fog is in the air.

Gu Haizhu's eyes were covered by a white mist, and it was frighteningly cold.
