Chapter 4 - Chapter 4 Occasionally, I get a financial ring (1)

Li Qing answered the call. Her clear and charming voice sounded like a nightingale." Zhang Yang, where are you now?"

"I'm wandering the streets, thinking of finding a hotel to stay in..." My face is gloomy, my words are full of bitterness,

"Come to me. My colleague has just returned the rent and moved to her boyfriend's place. There is a vacant room. You can stay for one night. Besides, we can also chat. I'm still full of doubts about what happened today…"Li Qing said.

Because of her work, she often flies all over the world, and she has not recognized A Qiang yet, so she has never moved to live with A Qiang and has been living alone in her rented house.

"Okay, I'll be right there."

My face lit up with joy.

Go to Li Qing there to borrow a night, you can save dozens of nearly a hundred yuan, for the cash-strapped me, is undoubtedly a timely rain.

Besides, Li Qing is so beautiful and sexy, and she is also a stewardess. She has long attracted me deeply. Now I have no girlfriend, and she will soon break up with A Qiang.

"I don't think so."

If we can seize the opportunity tonight.

Maybe.

I shook my head, shook the delusion out of my head, hung up the phone, and after a moment, I found Li Fa's location.

It's not far from here, and it's about half an hour's walk away. To save money, I gave up taking a taxi and chose to walk.

Unknowingly, I have already walked most of the way. When I passed Wenwan Street, I was shocked by the sight in front of me. The streets were brightly lit, as if it was daytime, and there were a wide variety of antique stalls on both sides of the street.

Crowds gathered in front of the stall, customers were interested in picking among the many "antiques" and haggling fiercely with the stall owners. This place was Zhonghai, China's premier antique capital. According to incomplete statistics, about 30% of the people in the city make a living by antiques. Not only antique lovers from all over the country come to look for things they like, but even many foreigners have a special liking for this city. They often come to buy some favorite cultural relics and take them back to China.

This is also the reason why I came to China to fight.

When I first arrived, due to lack of experience, I first got a job as a fitness instructor with my love of fitness. At the same time, I am eager to learn antique industry knowledge, consolidate their professional knowledge in cultural relics appraisal. On weekdays, I also often shuttle to the antique market, with the idea of "picking up the leak", hoping to find the real main shell, but most of the time I see the eye, buy are fakes. Even though I earn ten or twenty thousand dollars a month as a fitness instructor, having girlfriends and buying those things always makes money hard to make ends meet. My heart was desperate to make a fortune, and the antique business always offered opportunities for instant riches. So I decided to quit my job as a fitness instructor and devote myself to antiques. After all, only by focusing on other things can I make a difference in this field. After all, it is difficult to succeed in the amateur industry.

However, he didn't expect that his girlfriend would almost cheat on him today.

As I walked, I unconsciously looked at the stalls.

To a stall before, I slowly squatted down, picked up a stall on a ceramic Taotie, in the hands over and over to examine.

The ceramic Taotie was heavy in the hand, its color was simple, and it looked quite old.

Nine times out of ten it's an antique.

This must be a leak!

Despite my excitement, I still calmly looked at the stall owner and said,"How much is this thing?" The stall owner was a man in his thirties. His eyes were shrewd. When he saw me pick up the ceramic food and ask, a trace of imperceptible excitement flashed across his eyes. He was like a hungry wolf who saw his prey and immediately bragged seriously! "No," he said. It was the most beloved item of Ba Qing during Qin Shi Huang's era. Ba Qing relied on this Taotie to become the richest man in the country at that time. Come on, you want me to tell you something? Your words and knowledge are simply too poor…"I heard, immediately full of black lines. I graduated from cultural relics appraisal major, so I know Ba Qing like the back of my hand.

Ba Qing, the famous widow Qing in history, also occupies a lot of space in Huang Yi's Records of Searching for Qin Dynasty.

After her husband's unfortunate death, she did not follow the convention of women remarrying at that time, but with extraordinary courage and wisdom, resolutely shouldered the burden of family property.

She faced countless obstacles in an era when women were inferior and the business world was almost completely monopolized by men.

However, she fully exploited the long-term accumulation of cinnabar mining and refining technology advantages of her family, continuously improved the process, greatly improved the output and quality of cinnabar, and made the family cinnabar products famous in the market and became popular with everyone. As the scale of the industry continued to expand, Baqing built up a huge commercial network, and its businesses spread all over the country. In order to ensure the safety of cinnabar transportation, she carefully built a professional logistics system and trained a trainable escort team. According to relevant records, Ba Qing accumulated an astonishing amount of wealth, about 800 million taels of silver and 5.8 million taels of red gold, making him the richest man at that time. During the period when she was studying and managing the family business, there were as many as 1,000 servants in her family, and more than 10,000 dependent people. In addition, she also had a private bodyguard team of more than 2,000 people, which showed her strength and influence. After Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms, Ba Qing succeeded in attracting Qin Shi Huang's attention because of his outstanding commercial achievements and lofty social status, and was summoned into the palace. In the palace, she and Qin Shi Huang in-depth discussion of governance and business development policy, with their own knowledge and wisdom, won the respect of Qin Shi Huang, was honored as "Zhenfu."

Listening to my eloquent and clear narration of Widow Qing's life and brilliant deeds, the stall owner was stunned and his face was full of disbelief. Obviously, he did not expect to meet an expert. Finally, I added: "If the widow is rich by this ceramic gluttony, then you have this treasure and have long become the richest man in the world. What are you doing here?" "This…I am not lucky enough to discover the use of this treasure. However, you know so much about Widow Qing that you must have a predestined relationship with this baby. 100,000 yuan, you can take it away. It's definitely worth it." The stall owner was also a good talker. He instantly came back to his senses and skillfully rounded up his words.

"Ten dollars." I was expressionless and coldly threw out two words.

"At least ten thousand. This is already a skyrocketing price." The stall owner gritted his teeth and seemed to have made up his mind.

"Twenty." I was unmoved and my tone remained flat.

" 1,000 yuan. Take it. This is the lowest price. I really can't go any lower." The stall owner's face was filled with anxiety, and his eyes were filled with anticipation.

" Fifty. This is the highest price I can afford. I won't give you a penny more." As I spoke, I pretended to put down the ceramic Taotie and stand up to leave. However, what dumbfounded me was that just as I put the ceramic Taotie back into the stall, one of its legs broke inexplicably.
