MTL - Treasure Hunt America-Chapter 87 The drunkard's intention is not the wine
Ask for collection, ask for recommendation!
****************
Fortunately, there is also a living room in this room, so it is not difficult to accommodate such five or six people.
"Summy Marseille, @#￥￥%...&*("
A few Japanese people entered the living room, and then they made another big bow, and then said a lot in their mouths, and Jin Muchen looked puzzled for a while.
At this time, Xiaobailian hurriedly translated for him and said, "Mr. Jin, Mr. Watanabe and the others said that they are very sorry for what happened yesterday, and hereby express their sincere apologies to you, and hope to get your forgiveness."
Although Jin Muchen also knows that these little Japanese like to play these sweet and belly swords the most, but as the so-called is to reach out and not to slap the smiling face, people put their posture so low, if he is entangled in the things of yesterday, it seems that he There was no more measurement, so he simply waved his hand, said a few scenes, and exposed the incident yesterday.
When a few Japanese people saw Jin Muchen, they said they didn't care about what happened yesterday, and they were very happy, and said a few more words, and then a person behind Watanabe reached out and took out a box and handed it to Xiaobailian's hand. It was sent to Jin Muchen.
"This is a small gift, Mr. Watanabe and the others hope that Mr. Jin can accept their apology...Wait a minute, put away the four in the snuff bottle you bought that day..."
Xiaobaimian's words didn't fit in the preface, and the last sentence was said in a low voice, and while talking, he gave Jin Muchen a wink, Jin Muchen was also stunned, what kind of medicine is this guy selling in the gourd?
He really couldn't figure it out, but since others were willing to give gifts, there was no reason why he wouldn't accept them, not to mention that the gifts came from these Japanese.
Xiao Bailian put the box in his hand, and then stepped aside. Several Japanese people looked at Jin Muchen at this time, and then looked at the box in his hand eagerly. The meaning was obvious. Open it and see if you like it?
Jin Muchen was not polite, and opened the box in person. It seemed that these Japanese people really used their brains in order to show their hospitality.
The contents in the box are just a few of the cola cans collection that he competed with yesterday. The first one happened to be the golden can of Coke commemorating the Beijing Olympics, and the other twelve were made by Coca-Cola specifically to please China. Hey, this is a commemorative jar of the zodiac that was released.
Needless to say, this golden can of Coke is very valuable even in China. After he failed the bid that day, he checked it. Now the domestic collection price of this thing has risen to 5,000 yuan, and this zodiac commemorative can , Although the material is not very special, because only a few thousand sets were released in the capital area at the beginning, it is also of collection significance. It is also very popular in the domestic collection circle.
The price for a set is about 12,000 yuan.
These Japanese people are really generous. They gave themselves a small gift of 20,000 yuan as soon as they came up, and it can be seen that they put a lot of effort into knowing that they are Chinese, so they sent such a gift with Chinese characteristics. Gift.
Bai picked up more than 10,000 yuan, of course Jin Muchen was very happy, he laughed, and the expression on his face was also very happy, and the Japanese people on the opposite side saw that Jin Muchen smiled, and also laughed.
In their opinion, as long as Jin Muchen is happy, their goal will be the first step.
Then everyone started to introduce each other and chatted. These Japanese people obviously know the skills of negotiation very well. They are not in a hurry to say the purpose of their trip. At this stage, they just want to deal with Jin Muchen well, so that Jin Muchen can let go. Be wary of them.
In this conversation, Jin Muchen also probably knew the origin of these guys. Watanabe is a Japanese-American and has immigrated to the United States for more than 20 years, but his lifestyle is to fly between Japan and the United States. The time spent in Japan is longer than in the United States, and even in the United States, he mainly lives in the Japanese-American area in Los Angeles, which is the main reason why he immigrated to the United States for more than 20 years, but his English is still so bad.
He is in the antique business himself, and his clients are mainly Japanese import and export traders who specialize in the United States. Because of the fluctuation of exchange rates and foreign exchange, many Japanese traders like to buy some antiques to hedge the exchange rate and foreign exchange fluctuations. loss.
The Japanese did this more than 30 years ago, but at that time they were too superstitious about the American work ethics. At that time, their antique consultants were all Americans, but they were miserable by the Americans that time. .
The conscience of those American investment advisers is greatly broken. They spend dozens of dollars to buy some oil paintings from those down-to-earth painters in New York, and then tell the Japanese that these paintings are painted by the most promising young painters in the United States. , it has great potential for appreciation. After ten years, the value of these paintings can be increased tenfold, or even a hundredfold.
So the Japanese bought those paintings back, but when they needed money, they didn't know they were fooled until they were sold.
Or those American investment consultants, who found some Western fakes, junk antiques, bullied the Japanese, and sold those things to the Japanese at high prices, which ended up making the Japanese miserable.
It is said that in the art investment, the Japanese were cheated by the Americans at least billions of dollars.
So after that, the Japanese no longer trust these investment advisers in the United States, and people like Watanabe have become the objects they can trust.
"By the way, I heard Chen Sang mention that the day before yesterday, Jin Sang, you received a collection of snuff bottles in the market. We heard that we liked it very much, so I took the liberty to come here today, just to see this exquisite set. Jinsang wonders if you can show it to us? To tell you the truth, we failed to complete this task due to a mistake yesterday. If your snuff bottle collection is suitable, we are willing to provide it Buy at a high price.”
The previous preparation and warm-up were almost the same, and Watanabe started to get straight to the point. At this time, the little white face who was standing beside him as an interpreter for him was translating while winking at Jin Muchen, reminding him not to forget what he told him before.
When Jin Muchen saw this little white face's action, his heart moved: "Okay! Wait a minute, I put those snuff bottles in the safe in the bedroom, I'll go get them."
After he finished speaking, he got up and went back to the bedroom, but he left a crack in the door of the bedroom. When he entered the door, he didn't rush straight to the safe, but hid behind the crack and looked out.
As soon as he entered the bedroom, the expressions of those Japanese people changed. Watanabe pretended to get up inadvertently, and then approached the door of his bedroom, staring at the movement here.
As for Komatsu and another guy, they fell down in a single step. He placed it next to the black lacquered gold wooden box in the living room, opened the box lid at once, and then looked for it inside the box lid. Soon they found those signatures, and then nodded ecstatically at Watanabe here.
Seeing the virtues of these Japanese people, Jin Muchen sneered in his heart, it really was the drunkard's intention not to drink!
In fact, when he walked from the market yesterday, he never forgot the look that Komatsu stared at the wooden box in his hand. That guy was like a wolf who saw meat.
When the Japanese came today, he probably guessed that these guys were coming for this wooden box. He didn't expect that they would pack it when he arrived. He also knew that he was going in circles with himself, and actually brought up his own set of snuff bottles first.
snort! I'll see what tricks you're up to.
The box was placed there, he didn't worry that they would see it bad, and the box was fifty centimeters long and thirty centimeters high, either big or small. Make them look good.
However, those snuff bottles are not easy to handle. The little white face told himself that he wanted to put away the four by himself, which showed that he was also knowledgeable about this snuff bottle. This must be a kind reminder.
Those snuff bottles were in the small wooden box that Phil gave him, with foam shock-proof layers inside, and these shock-proof layers were all cut out to some fixed shapes. If you took them out to the Japanese, they would be empty. location, that's not good.
He simply put all these snuff bottles out~www.novelbuddy.com~, put them in a paper bag, and took them out of the bedroom.
But when he came out, the Japanese had all returned to their original positions, and they were all sitting upright, and it was impossible to see that they had just been murmuring around the black-painted gold box for a long time.
"Well, that's all, look at it!"
Jin Muchen put the paper bag on the coffee table, Komatsu and two other Japanese people carefully opened the bag, and then took out all the snuff bottles one by one.
A few guys pretended to look at it with glasses and a magnifying glass. Anyway, they looked very carefully, but Jin Muchen saw how they got started and knew that they must not be very proficient in snuff bottles.
The little white-faced translator who was standing on the side was relieved when he saw clearly that the four snuff bottles he had mentioned before were gone, and then quietly raised his thumb like Jin Muchen, indicating that the Japanese were not paying attention. He did it right.
Although this Komatsu and the other two appraisers are experts in antiques, they specialize in the art industry. This time they came to the United States to conduct appraisals, so their specialties are all related to Western antiques, oil paintings, or miscellaneous items.
Although they also have a little knowledge of Chinese antiques, they can understand a little about porcelain or ancient paintings, but this snuff bottle is a small branch of Chinese antiques and miscellaneous items, and they are really not particularly specialized.
So after pretending to look twice, they waved and called the translator Xiaobailian over, but they didn't know that this little whiteface had secretly turned against the water. . .
