Chapter 593. Adventure

After entering the bathing area, Lin Yi and others knew what the "bathroom culture" in old Beijing is.

The bathing place is a dome-shaped building with a brick structure. The wall is square, with a circular shape above two meters high and a hemispherical shape. The arched dome window of the curved corridor is decorated with eight pieces of colored glass, which plays the role of lighting during bathing. The design is very exquisite. Whether it is the rising sun or the setting sun, there can be sunlight inside.

There is a drain on the ground in the northeast of the room, which is a low point in the room, which can drain the bathed sewage. There is a water inlet pipe with a diameter of 50 mm on the north wall. Outside the wall is a yurt-shaped water boiling equipment, with an insulation layer outside. The water comes from the sink of the well pavilion. This is heated and sent into the wall for bathing.

At this moment, the big men in the bathhouse were surrounded by towels, swaying leisurely, including pedicures, acupuncture, cupping, lying on the bath bed to slap bones and massage, drinking coffee and chatting, playing Go and joking... to discuss.

An atmosphere like this is absolutely invisible in other places. Not to mention not seeing it, even if you tell them, they may not believe it.

I soaked in the pool comfortably, and the hot water wrapped around my body. I imagined the cold wind outside, and I felt my blood was comfortable all over my body.

This is the best time to talk and chat.

Lin Yi poured water on his face and said, "It feels so comfortable, Lao Cao, you have found a good place this time!"

"Haha, it's rare that you praise me once. If you take so much advantage of you, you should do something!" Lao Cao wiped his face with a towel.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "What's wrong, the capital was not here in vain this time?"

"I have gained a lot. I won't talk about me anymore. My cousin has made so much, so I want to thank you." Old Cao was so moved.

He Dabao next to him smirked.

They really want to thank Lin Yi. It is not a small amount to earn 500,000 at once. People like He Dabao don’t know how long it takes to earn it.

Of course, Lin Yi understood what they meant and didn't say much. For him, don't forget his friends at any time, let alone those who have helped you. Although Lin Yi has not known He Dabao for a long time, he is a person who is willing to put in his efforts and is willing to work hard for Lin Yi.

"Cousin, don't hold it in your mouth. Say it to Brother Lin if you have anything to say." Lao Cao touched his cousin He Dabao in the pool.

He Dabao smiled silly and said, "Well, I didn't say anything. Thank you very much, Brother Lin, oh, Boss Lin."

Lin Yi smiled: "What's the name of the boss? Or call me a brother and feel comfortable."

He heard Lin Yi say this, He Dabao was full of excitement. It was so rare that a billionaire was willing to call him a brother and brother to him, a coolie. He was so excited that he couldn't speak.

Next, Lin Yi remembered the Bohai Auction and asked He Dabao intentionally or unintentionally that he knew these things.

I thought He Dabao was in a low status and could not be exposed to high-level auctions in this area. Unexpectedly, when He Dabao saw Lin Yi asking, he actually said that he knew very well.

This surprised Lin Yi.

It turns out that although He Dabao was a man who worked in Panjiayuan, he had his own way of doing things.

When he had nothing to do, he would wait with a large group of people near Panjiayuan, and drink a few beer in summer and Erguotou in winter, and gather together to chat.

The chat content is very complicated, which involves the Bohai auction. A companion said that Bohai Auction is the most high-end auction in Beijing. Generally, the auction items are millions or tens of millions. However, in order to ensure the smoothness of the auction, Bohai Company will preview the artworks to be auctioned in advance, so that those interested in participating in the auction can distinguish the authenticity.

At this time, the photographers will gather some appraisal masters and calligraphy and painting masters to identify and evaluate the authenticity of those items in the preview.

This link is very important because each other's valuation is secret. If your valuation is leaked, it is likely to fail in the auction.

After saying this, He Dabao revealed another news to Lin Yi, saying that he heard that Bohai was preparing to auction a batch of calligraphy and painting works from the Ming Dynasty, including Wang Duo's calligraphy, etc. Therefore, those famous calligraphy and painting appraisers were very popular, and almost all were hired by some large consortiums and capital-friendly bosses to be consultants.

After hearing this, Lin Yi understood why the three big men of Pan Jiayuan were so keen to ask for help.

Although I am a seventh-grade collector and a senior appraiser of Hong Kong New Century Company, I am probably not yet a good place in a big place like Beijing. However, the other party can look down on me so much, so I must have focused on Wang Duo's calligraphy in this group of calligraphy and paintings, and I am just the strength in this regard. According to the energy of those three, since I can understand my background, of course I also know my ability to appraise Wang Duo's calligraphy.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi suddenly felt enlightened and many doubts were solved.

When he was in a happy mood, Lin Yi stopped thinking too much. He chatted with everyone for a while. The old Cao said that he had arranged for the master to help rub the back and massage.

So the four of them went to the rubbing area and lay on the bed with a towel.

Lin Yi had just lying comfortably on the bed, and then an old masseur in his fifties came over. He didn't talk much, but his hands and feet were sharp, pushing, pressing, grabbing, pinching, pounding, and hitting. He was skillful in his craftsmanship. He heard a burst of whirlwinds, and after a drowsy period, his whole body became much more comfortable.

Next is the focus of massage. After the masseur's hand massaged Lin Yi's waist a few times, he asked: "Boss, how do you think the strength?"

Lin Yi said, "It's better to heavier."

In fact, the masseur had already used all his strength at this time, but Lin Yi's spiritual energy protected his body. Although the old masseur was very strong, he still couldn't penetrate his waist.

He wiped the sweat from his head helplessly. The old masseur was embarrassed to say that he was not strong enough. At this moment, the rich man who had met outside came over and waved to the masseur, signaling him to get out of the way first, and then massage Lin Yi himself.

At this time, Lin Yi would not have thought that the masseur had changed people, and buried his face in the bed and said, "This is the right force, well, the master has good skills."

The rich man didn't say anything and continued to massage him very seriously.

In a daze, Lin Yi felt a comfortable feeling of softening the bones in his waist. He hadn't felt this feeling for a long time.

He couldn't help but look up and praised, "What a good craft... Hey, why did you change someone?!" He realized that the person who helped him do massage was actually another person, and his face showed great surprise.

The rich man smiled slightly, "How about it, my friend, is my technique okay? I haven't practiced for many years, but fortunately I haven't been unfamiliar yet."

"You are..." Lin Yi felt that this person was extraordinary.

The man smiled and said, "I am the boss here!"
