Chapter 1033 The washbasin used by the emperor
Li Mo walked out of the shop carrying the packaged porcelain basin, and Tashi Dorje hurriedly followed. He didn't understand what kind of play Li Mo was playing. He wandered around the store, and finally spent 10,000 cash in a fit of anger to buy away the porcelain basin for snacks.
Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be. What kind of person Li Mo is, how could he fight against the owner of an antique shop? Tashi Dorje watched him carefully carrying the water basin, and a thought flashed in his mind, is the most inconspicuous basin the real good thing?
"Mr. Li, let me carry it for you."
"Then be careful, this is a good thing."
"Don't worry, I will be very careful."
Li Mo handed him the things, and then continued to walk forward slowly.
"Duoji, is there any antique shop here that specializes in calligraphy and painting?"
"There is no one that specializes in selling calligraphy and painting, but there are several shops that sell calligraphy and painting. I will take you there to have a look, maybe you can find some good things."
Li Mo smiled, and then asked: "How old is the child?"
"The eldest is eight years old, a daughter, and the son is only three years old. They are both very mischievous. Every day I go home and see them, I am very worried."
"Hahaha, the same."
Li Mo laughed empathetically, and suddenly he stopped and stood in front of a booth. All kinds of accessories are displayed on this stall, including bracelets, bracelets, necklaces, earrings and brooches, including silver products and jade products. The silver is definitely genuine, with some distressing to make it look like it has aged.
And those jade products are more nonsense, they are really made of ordinary ore, and each ornament is packed in a box, which is opened one by one for tourists to choose.
"Sir, choose a few gifts for your family to take back, and I will give you a cheap price."
The boss is a woman. You can't tell how old she is from her rough skin, but from her eyes, it can be seen that she is a bit shrewd, and she can speak Mandarin very well.
Li Mo looked at the booth, and he saw that they were all silver products, but there was no eye-catching style.
"Boss, do you have any other styles? These silver jewelry styles are not too exquisite."
"Sir, all the accessories brought out today are here. I don't like silver jewelry. You can look at these jade bracelets and bracelets."
Li Mo glanced, all stones were made by machines, but the selected stones are a bit tricky, and the texture on the surface of the bracelet seems to be quite beautiful. But this kind of thing has a lot of impurities in it, so some of it also contains a certain amount of radiation, and it is not good for health to wear it for a long time.
"The styles are all average."
Li Mo still used the same reason.
The boss was a little unhappy now, glanced at Li Mo and Duoji who was standing beside him and said: "I still have more than a dozen jade bracelets that have not been displayed here, wait a moment, I will show them to you. "
Soon, the eight boxes were opened one by one, and the items inside were all in sets of two or three. Li Mo's eyes swept away, and there were really good things.
He picked up one of them, which contained a pendant jade tablet and a bracelet, with a yellow and blue luster, relatively pure and transparent. But it is not jade in the traditional sense, but a kind of natural emerald.
"Boss, what material is this? It doesn't look like jade?"
"Sir, some things can't be said nonsense. I have been doing business here for more than ten years, and every piece of jewelry I sell is true. If you say that the quality of jade is good or bad, I can accept it. You If you say it is not made of jade, I really want to talk to you about it."
The boss seemed about to start a fight, Li Mo smiled awkwardly and asked, "Boss, what kind of jade do you think this is made of?"
"A very special nephrite jade, so you feel different from other jades when you touch it."
The nonsense that he said, he didn't even have a few axes to fool people. Li Mo didn't expect her to really tell one, two, three, it's better not to know its origin.
"It makes sense to hear what you said." Li Mo put down the box, thought for a while and asked, "Boss, how much are these two things?"
When the female boss heard him ask the price, a smile finally appeared on her face. She stretched out a hand and said, "Preferential price, five thousand yuan."
"How much? Five thousand?"
Li Mo pretended to be surprised, and his voice was raised a little bit. The tourists passing by looked at them curiously, but unfortunately they could only see Li Mo's back, and with the hat on his head, they couldn't see his true face clearly. Allow.
Tashi Dorji interrupted at this time: "Boss Li, let's go to other stalls, five thousand is too expensive."
"I also think it's too expensive."
Li Mo nodded, clapped his hands and prepared to leave.
"Hey, hey, two brothers, there is always a bargainer in business. If you think five thousand is expensive, how much is acceptable to you, and you can also pay back the price."
Li Mo looked at Duoji, intending to ask him to make an offer.
"Five hundred."
Tashi Dorje cut to the end.
The female boss probably didn't expect him to bargain so hard, and didn't know what to say for a while.
"Boss, if Wubai agrees, I will take it away."
Tashi Dorje asked a question.
"Are you bargaining? You are killing my life, five hundred yuan, I don't even have enough money." The female boss waved her hand and gave him a few angry glances.
Li Mo unhurriedly took out ten red tickets from his backpack and put them on the booth: "Boss, the price should be about the same. If you take the money, how about I take these two things?"
The female boss looked at the money, then at Li Mo, hesitated for three seconds, and quickly took away a thousand cash.
"Sir, you are still refreshing."
Li Mo smiled: "Duoji, take it away."
Tashi Dorje picked up the jewelry box and followed Li Mo's pace, and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Li, what do you say about these two jewelry?"
"This is not made of jade, but natural amber. This kind of amber was produced in the Fushun coal mine. But this is not a domestic amber, but Burmese gold and blue amber. Normal amber contains impurities, but these two It is very pure and transparent, and it is the best of the golden blue amber, very rare. According to the market price, the two pieces are worth about four to five hundred thousand."
Tashi Dorje was secretly dumbfounded. If you bought it for 1,000 yuan, you would get 40,000 to 50,000 yuan in profit. No wonder he is a super rich man at a young age.
"Duoji, I gave your daughter and son two pieces of gold and amber as presents. But they are still young and don't know the value of these two pieces. You can take them home and give them to your daughter-in-law first. In the future, we will see who is the most filial to you. pass it on to whomever."
Li Mo was joking with him in the end.
But Duoji couldn't believe it. The gold and amber jewelry worth four or five hundred thousand was just given to himself?
"Mr. Li, how can I..."
"Yan Xin asked you to come and receive me because he believed in your character, so please accept this gift."
Duoji hesitated before saying respectfully: "Thank you, Mr. Li."
Then the two visited more than a dozen shops, but they didn't find anything good. Seeing that it was almost noon, the two drove back to the hotel.
"Duoji, go up and have a cup of tea."
"Okay." Tashi Dorji wished to be able to spend more time with Li Mo, everyone around him was amazing, and getting to know him more would only be beneficial.
In Li Mo's room, he had already taken out the porcelain basin and placed it on the table. Chen Xiaoyan and the others looked at it curiously, it must be a treasure that can be bought back by Li Mo.
"Master, this looks like a washbasin."
Fu Liang observed for a while and expressed his thoughts.
Li Mo opened the bottom of the porcelain, and the six-character seal script "Great Qing Qianlong Annual System" is very standard in design, and it is the porcelain of the Qianlong official kiln.
"You really hit the spot. This is the washbasin. It's called the Greenland Painting Pastel Folding Edge Basin. In the past, it was traditionally called Yangcai Greenland. It was the basin used by Emperor Qianlong to wash his hands."
Fu Liang suddenly laughed, he still has good eyesight. As expected of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, even the washbasin is so luxurious.
"Little uncle, how much is the washbasin used by Emperor Qianlong worth now?"
Chen Xiaoyan watched closely and even touched it with her hands.
"According to the auction records of porcelain, a similar one was sold on Hong Kong Island. At that time, it was sold for 8 million. It is estimated that it will start at least 9 million now."
Duoji's throat twitched, no wonder people didn't even pay attention to four or five million treasures. It is estimated that there are no antiques worth hundreds of dollars, so he is too lazy to sell them.
"How are you guys, are you feeling okay?"
"Fu Liang and I may practice martial arts all year round, and our physique is better, so the feeling of discomfort is gone, and we can go out with you at any time."
"Uncle, when are we going to the Potala Palace? I heard that there is gold everywhere. Some people say that it is the largest gold reserve in the world."
"Speaking of which, seeing is believing. If you are all fine, then we will set off tomorrow. Today, we will just walk around the neighborhood. It is a rare visit to the snow area, so we can learn more about the local customs and gain a lot of knowledge. , When I go back, I will have the capital to brag with others. Brown bear, this green field famille rose basin made in the Qianlong period is well kept."
There happened to be a food street near the hotel. In the afternoon, Li Mo and the others walked there under the leadership of Duoji. Along the way, I also saw a lot of foreign tourists, and they all seemed to come for the so-called food.
When we were about to reach the food street, the smell of cumin was in the air, which should be emitted from the big meat skewers.
"Mr. Li, there are people fighting in front." Duoji looked, "The five people on one side should be Ah San, and the ones fighting with them are merchants on the food street."
Li Mo also saw that they were fighting each other five-on-five, but there was too much movement, and a group of people rushed out from the food street, some with benches, and some with various tools for making food. They gathered around and greeted the five Asan without saying a word. The situation was immediately different. The five Asan were beaten and screamed. They wanted to rush out of the encirclement, but there were too many people surrounding them. Also ruthless, he beat them abruptly and lay on the ground, holding his head and screaming.
The folk customs here are so tough?
Li Mo stood watching from a long distance, and the others watched with great interest.
"Duoji, no one cares about this?"
Tashi Dorji scratched his head, the smile on his face was a bit stiff and ugly: "The people from the police station should be here soon."
"There won't be any deaths, right?"
"No, absolutely not. Don't look at them being so ruthless in attacking each and every one of them. In fact, they knew it well, and they didn't even say hello to their vital parts. I guess it must have been caused by those five asses. The two sides fought a lot, some of the owners of the food street are local, most of them are foreigners, if they are not united, life here may not be easy."
Li Mo saw that they had given up, and the five Asan curled up on the ground screaming, even if they didn't kill them, it would definitely hurt their muscles and bones after this greeting.
"Look, they're all gone."
The beating group disappeared quickly, and after they had all left, a policeman emerged from a corner not far away.
"There's nothing to see, let me go."
The corner of Li Mo's mouth twitched, counting them as unlucky to meet a group of tougher opponents. As soon as the police car arrived, the tourists watching the show dispersed one after another, so as not to be dragged over by them to ask questions and delay their good time.
There were a lot of tourists coming and going on the food street. Li Mozhen was about to buy a few skewers of barbecue to try, when he saw six Ah San squeezed out from the crowd and rushed towards the entrance. They should have come for reinforcements, but unfortunately they were late So many steps.
Li Mo just looked at it, but Duoji, who was beside him, had a gloomy face, looking at the back of one of Ah San with hatred in his eyes.
"Duoji, do you know them?"
Tashi Dorje nodded, and said in a deep voice: "One of the young people is the youngest son of a super rich man in Asan. Our family's business was ruined by them."
"what happened?"
"Hey, this matter is beyond words."
"If you don't know what to say, let's not talk about it. Everyone can buy whatever they want."
Li Mo greeted, and then looked at the backs of those Ah Sans who were about to disappear in the crowd. According to the information Yan Xin gave him, a group of Ah Sans came here to invest. Broke. They were unwilling to reconcile and wanted to take revenge on the group of Asan, so they secretly collected information, and they caught some dirty tails.
"Brown bear, go say hello to the people at the police station, and find a way to get some more information from those Ah San. Anyway, don't let them get away easily, find some excuses to control them for a few days, and then interrogate them carefully. "
"Understood, I'll go right away."
Brown Bear is also a member of the Security Bureau, with a work permit on his body. If he shows up and makes any excuses, the local police will definitely cooperate fully.
Except for a few local characteristics, the food on the food street is similar to other pedestrian streets, especially the stinky tofu, which must exist in a place to visit.
"Little uncle, try these kebabs. They are full of ingredients, and they are tender and fragrant when you take a bite." Chen Xiaoyan handed him a few kebabs, which were sprinkled with white sesame seeds, and he really wanted to smell them. But when Li Mozhen was about to taste it, he suddenly looked at Duoji and asked, "What kind of meat is this made of?"
