MTL - America’s Treasure King-Chapter 34 shopping on the street
In the evening, the relaxed Li Xiaoshuai spent $1,600 in a five-star hotel in Boston to invite his girlfriend and two assistants to a feast.
Lobster is indispensable when you come to Boston. You can eat raw Parma ham and try it. As for steak and the like, it is not a problem.
If you don't eat it, you don't eat it for nothing. Anyway, this money was picked up during the game for nothing. It's a full 130,000. Some people ate it in the big hotel.
Satisfied, both Frank and Bo Yang left early, so that Li Xiaoshuai and his wife could have a two-person world.
In the middle of the night, the sound of the shaker next door made it so noisy that Frank and Bo Yang, who lived next to Li Xiaoshuai, could not sleep. Frank dragged Bo Yang to the outside of the hotel, saying that we were going to help the stray women, and we would ask Boss Li for reimbursement tomorrow, who asked him to disturb the people.
The next day was the weekend. After breakfast, under the unanimous condemnation of Frank and Bo Yang, Li Xiaoshuai, who was forced to helpless, gave the two assistants 500 yuan each, and he was so angry that he cursed: "How far, as long as Just go back to the hotel and have dinner together in the evening.”
With their fingers intertwined, Li Xiaoshuai and his wife started a routine weekend tour.
Perhaps because of the good weather, Li Xiaoshuai saw that there were a lot of people setting up stalls on the street.
Li Xiaoshuai also said that Boston is his blessed land. Last time, he bought the top red agate that is comparable to the Rabbit Country, and also bought a Black Star pistol. By the way, the large lobster shell is also bought here.
"May the luck always be there!"
"Will do!"
The couple cuddled together, wandering from booth to booth, Li Xiaoshuai saw mostly second-hand clothing, jeans for three dollars a pair, and hats for two dollars apiece.
There are also potted flower sellers. The business is quite good. The stalls are filled with all kinds of blooming flowers, which are very attractive. Many middle-aged women are surrounded by bargaining.
"There are so few good things," Li Xiaoshuai couldn't help lamenting.
With a face of reassurance, he said that the best is at the end, and there is time, let's just stroll around slowly.
Li Xiaoshuai said affectionately: "As long as there is you, I am willing to accompany you to the ends of the earth."
"Yeah." Elaine's heart melted when she was moved, and she snuggled even tighter.
This scene happened to be seen by Frank and the two who happened to be here. He said with jealousy that on such a hot day, the two of them were not afraid of getting sick from the heat. That woman, doesn't she just walk around, she's all hanging on Boss Li's body.
Bo Yang joked, why do I think your words are full of sourness?
"No, absolutely not!"
Passing by a small stall selling silver jewelry, the stall owner aunt shouted to Li Xiaoshuai and the others, come and buy a pair of commemorative silver rings, and also help you to engrave your name for free, it can bless you in love for a lifetime.
Li Xiaoshuai waved his hand, indicating no need.
But for the sake of business, the aunt ran out with a pair of silver rings and stopped the young couple.
Li Xiaoshuai had no choice but to lift Elaine's hand up, revealing the pink tourmaline bracelet he had given her on her Bai Nen wrist, saying, "Look what this is, it's worth 30,000 US dollars.
The aunt who sold the silver ring was suddenly dumbfounded, and instantly turned into a smiling face and complimented, "Bless you, Rabbit Boy, I can see that this beautiful young lady likes you very much."
After walking for a long time, Li Xiaoshuai saw a dagger-like fossil at a booth selling stones, and he became interested.
The stall owner said that this is the tooth of a saber-toothed tiger.
Li Xiaoshuai also scanned it with X-ray eyes, and determined that it was a treasure from ancient times, so he picked it up and took a closer look.
The canine teeth of this saber-toothed tiger are curved like a knife, about 17 centimeters long, thick on one side and thin on the other side. It has been petrified to the naked eye, but it is very well preserved and there is almost no damage.
He said in his heart that this is the most suitable thing to give to the old man. He began to ask the stall owner, "Is this just one, and what's the price?"
"Just this one, sincerely ask for $200."
Elaine said first, we are sincere to buy it, but you are a black-hearted businessman. This fossil is not worth 200 yuan at all. I think 50 dollars is enough.
Li Xiaoshuai couldn't be more beautiful in his heart. He secretly said that this is my wife. They have the same mind and don't need to speak.
In the end, after some bargaining, the big tooth of the saber-toothed tiger was won by Li Xiaoshuai for $100. He also told his girlfriend that he would like it for your father.
"thanks."
After walking around, luck seems to be gone, and there is nothing worth seeing.
After a full lunch at the market, the two went to another flea market.
At this market, Li Xiaoshuai came back with good luck. He spotted a bohemian-style sugar jar at a booth.
Bohemia in ancient Europe is now the Czech Republic. In ancient times, it was a prince of the Holy Roman Empire and was qualified to elect an emperor.
The jar is 15 cm high even with the lid, and is engraved with a rhombus-shaped grid pattern all over the body, and there is a fringe under the grid.
The top is a bead button, and there are corrugated stripes running down from the top bead.
The entire utensils are exquisitely carved, with sophisticated techniques, and there is no sign of sloppy water. It is definitely a master craftsmanship. Li Xiaoshuai saw it at a glance.
After the fluoroscopic examination, Li Xiaoshuai asked the price: "What's the price of this candy jar?"
The young stall owner glanced at Li Xiaoshuai and his wife and said, "This is an antique~www.novelbuddy.com~ very expensive."
"How expensive is a sugar jar made of glass?" Elaine started talking nonsense again.
The stall owner argued that it was made of high-grade crystal glass, handed down by the grandmother in the family, and it was absolutely antique. The price is naturally more expensive, 1,000 US dollars.
"Too expensive, too expensive." Elaine still expressed dissatisfaction with the price.
Li Xiaoshuai is even more trusting. He said to the young young stall owner amiably, "Your thing is made of crystal glass, not crystal. The difference between these two words is big."
I can understand how you feel about your grandmother, but that doesn't justify your wild price. "I think 200 yuan is very suitable."
Elaine: "Yes, we won't buy any more."
Even after beating and pressing, plus the power of the two male and female venomous snakes, in the end, this little young stall owner who didn't know the goods finally bought this antique for $450.
Hiding this valuable candy jar in his backpack, Li Xiaoshuai decisively pulled Elaine away.
After walking away, Elaine asked if the sugar jar was valuable?
"Of course! It's a jar carved from natural crystal, something from the Ducal Palace of Bohemia in the 17th century."
"God, I really thought it was crystal glass, and I thought it was probably a Swarovski product."
Li Xiaoshuai smiled and said, look; even you yourself can't tell what is natural crystal and what is crystal glass, and the same is true for others. The purpose of my shopping is to slaughter laymen. Only in this way can I make huge profits.
The owners of antique shops are all connoisseurs. These old men bid so high that I can't make money, and I can't kill them.
"Great idea, I support you!"
