Chapter 81 [Fatty Cloud]
The fat man was wearing a purple brocade dress, with a fat head and fair skin. He had four or five jade rings on his hands, and his condition was excellent. He was a top-notch guy. He was obviously a pampered and wealthy man. He was arrogant and walked into the shop. He sat down on a large vermilion chair with a golden sword, slapped the table, and shouted to drink.
There were also three or four guys in the store. There was an old shopkeeper over fifty years old behind the counter in West Corner. When the fat man came in, the guys turned their heads. However, the old shopkeeper came out from behind the counter with a faint smile and showed a hint of respect: "Yun Dadong Family, our boss is discussing affairs upstairs. If you want to see him, you have to wait!"
"Wait?" The fat man slapped the table and shouted, "Sun Laojiu, I don't have time to wait, let Guan Shaohe come down for me."
He was only about forty years old, and was about ten years younger than the old shopkeeper, but he called him "Sun Laojiu". He had no etiquette and was rude, and he really had no demeanor.
"I don't dare to disturb my boss." The old shopkeeper's expression remained unchanged, and he still smiled, without saying much. He came to the door and bowed deeply to Han Mo, saying, "Don't be surprised, please come in, please come in, take a look at what you need. I can help you find a few good things."
Han Mo secretly praised the Guan family trade business, whether it was the shopkeeper or the clerk, and he was not surprised when he encountered problems. He seemed extremely calm and polite. He secretly praised in his heart. It seems that he was not an ordinary person to look at the fact that his men know his master.
Han Mo held his fists and returned the gift, and walked into the store.
When Han Mo suddenly entered the house, he was shocked.
This is not how big the store is. The Han family house covers a vast land and has many courtyards. He has seen it many times, but the scene in the store is really beyond his expectations.
There is a large counter in the west corner. There are three large wooden racks on the left and three large wooden racks on the right. The wooden rack is sandalwood-purple, which is very simple. There are tables and chairs next to the shelves. The table has a complete set of tea sets, and there are rare fruits and vegetables, giving people a sense of extreme warmth. It is like returning home. The key is that there are various types of jewelry and jadeware on the six large wooden racks, with shining light, jade unicorn, jade butterfly, golden toad, gem gold crown, jade Ruyi, and various rare treasures filled it, which makes people's eyes open.
If these treasures are all real, they are of great value. If they dare to put them out, they will have a great courage.
Han Mo immediately thought that Guan Shaohe was showing the strength of the Guan family trade bank to outsiders, which showed that the Guan family trade bank had sufficient ability to receive various big businesses. He also believed that in the darkness of the Guan family trade bank, there must be a strong protection force, otherwise who would dare to do so blatantly?
Undoubtedly, Guan Shaohe is a very bold person.
...
Seeing that the old shopkeeper left him alone, Dong Dong's family slapped the table even loudly. The servants of the Guan family trade were really well-educated. They were not anxious or impatient, and even kept a smile on their faces, allowing Dong Dong's family to get angry there.
Even Guan Shaohe did not show up immediately.
Guan Shaohe is really calm.
The old shopkeeper ignored the shopkeeper Yun Da, as if he was commonplace with such things. He just called Han Mo to sit down in the tea hall on the left and pour tea himself. He was very respectful and asked with a smile: "What do you need for this young master? Jade, gold or silver?"
He suddenly caught a glimpse of Han Qing standing behind Han Mo holding an antique wooden box, and hurriedly said, "Is it possible that the young master has something to come to the trade shop for sale?"
He also carefully observed Han Mo's clothes. It was obviously the dress of a rich young man. The clothes on his body and the jade belt around his waist were all top-notch in Donghai City.
But he couldn't see the three golden fingers of Han Mo's right hand, so he couldn't recognize them. In front of him was the fifth son of the Han family in Donghai City.
Han Mo's right hand was already wearing a strange glove.
The glove is pure black in color, as thin as a cicada's wing, and three golden fingers are completely covered under it. However, if you touch it carefully, you will find that the black glove is definitely not made of fur silk brocade.
...
This is a great thing that Han Mo found from the wooden box given by the island owner.
He knew that his golden finger was very conspicuous, and he had thought of using things to cover his eyes before, so that he would not bring a mark wherever he went, and would often be recognized.
I just haven't had a good concealment tool. I had thought about wearing silk gloves before, but it felt too weird, and the scarf was easy to get dirty and it was very uncomfortable.
But this black glove is extremely strange.
It is extremely cool and light when worn on the hand, but most importantly, it doesn't feel like fur brocade, but it looks like a rare metal. Han Mo did an experiment and the big knife cut on it was completely damaged. It is really an excellent concealment tool.
This is a specialty of Nanyang. Although I can't figure out what else it has, it has the effect of covering up the golden fingers and not easily recognizing them.
If the old shopkeeper saw Han Mo's golden finger, he would be afraid that he would recognize Han Mo's identity at a glance. However, his finger was covered by black gloves at this time, so he didn't think about it. After all, he would not have thought that the Han family's son would come to sell things.
Donghai City says it is big or small, but it is not small. In addition to the Korean family, there are many other small families, and there are many wealthy families. It is common for some playboys to secretly buy treasures from their families in exchange for money and spend money.
The old shopkeeper asked immediately, and Han Mo nodded with a smile and said, "There are two things for your boss to see, but I wonder if the boss Guan Dafu has time?"
"I have some knowledge. The boss is busy. If the young master is anxious, I can help you see." The old shopkeeper said with a smile.
Han Mo did not refuse, and reached out from his shoulder and said, "Pick something out and show it to the old shopkeeper."
Han Qing immediately opened the wooden box and took out the animal skin painting carved by the knife.
Han Mo took it, handed it to the old shopkeeper, and smiled and said, "Sir, see if this thing is rare?"
The old shopkeeper hugged his fists, carefully took the animal skin painting, looked at it, and nodded repeatedly, "Good things, good things!" He did not show any shock. After all, he was the big shopkeeper of the Guan trading company. He was knowledgeable and had seen countless jewelry. Although this animal skin picture was very novel, it would never surprise the old shopkeeper who was well-educated.
Yun Dadong's family, who had been furious, saw that something was wrong here, turned their eyes. He also saw that Han Mo's brocade clothes and jade belts were not rich, but he thought he was a big customer. He tiptoed over and snatched the animal skin painting with his hand.
The old shopkeeper suddenly changed his color and said, "Dong Yun, are you?"
Han Mo seemed to be fine, picked up the teacup and took a leisurely sip. This tea is also a top-notch tea.
Yun Dadong's family glanced at the old shopkeeper disdainfully and said, "Sun Laojiu, can't I see this thing? This young man wants to sell goods, so he can't let you, a cunning old guy, cheat you." He looked like a good person.
The old shopkeeper said lightly: "Dong Yun, this is not the goods of my trading company, but the treasure of this young master. If you want to see it, you also need the consent of this young master."
Han Mo immediately smiled and said, "Old shopkeeper, it's okay. Since this Yun Dadong family wants to see it, let him see it!"
Yun Dadong's family glanced at the old shopkeeper with smug glances, sat down on the chair next to Han Mo, looked carefully, with a greedy look on his face, and turned to Han Mo and said, "Young Master, how much money do you plan to sell for this thing?"
The old shopkeeper immediately coughed and said, "Dong Yun, you are not in accordance with the rules!"
This is Guan's Trade Bank. If Yunda Dongjia negotiates prices with the guest of Guan's Trade Bank, it would violate the rules of the business and would be unreasonable.
This is the act of blatantly robbing business, and it is also the most taboo thing in the business world.
Yun Dadong's family gave a blank look and cursed: "Old guy, which eye do you see me breaking the rules? If you say bad rules, Guan Shaohe is breaking the rules. What about others? Why haven't you come out yet? Could it be that you dare not see me?"
The old shopkeeper said calmly: "The Yun Dadong family should understand that our Qingshang can trade in the four directions of the Central Plains, which is honest and trustworthy. If you are in such a dilemma, it's just a bad thing."
The old shopkeeper didn't know whether he was well-cultivated or was a little afraid of this Yun Dadong family. Although there was a little anger between his eyebrows, he did not have anger.
"Everyone is asking for money, don't hurt the harmony." Han Mo laughed, picked up the teacup and tasted it again, and asked Yun Dadong's house with a squinted eyes: "Yun Dadong, in your opinion, what price should I buy?"
Dong Dong Yun ignored the old shopkeeper's gaze and said with a smile: "Where does this thing come from?"
"It was passed down from ancestors." Han Mo said: "It's a good thing."
In fact, the Yun Dadong family can also see that the animal skin picture is made of leopard skin, and the picture on it is also lifelike. The most rare thing is the knife skill that is portrayed, which is not something that ordinary people can carve. The texture is clear and the starting point is even. It is really a good thing.
The most important thing is that things are precious because they are rare. This is the first time he has seen such a thing. Although he cannot tell the true value of it for a while, he also estimates in his heart that even if he receives twenty or thirty taels of silver, he will be sure to make a profit without losing money.
However, he knew better that it was a taboo for merchants to come to grab business. No matter how he had a backend, he could not resist such a bad reputation. He only planned to lead Han Mo out of the Guan family trading business and then win over Han Mo to buy it at a low price.
"Actually, such a good thing is very valuable." Yun Dadong's family exclaimed, his eyes rolled, and he leaned closer: "Brother, please listen to what price this Sun Laojiu can give you first, I'll show you."
He made up his mind to destroy the deal.
Han Mo was calm and thoughtless, and took the animal skin picture from Yun Dadong's house and handed it to the old shopkeeper again. He asked with a smile: "Old shopkeeper, please give me a real price."
The old shopkeeper carefully held the animal skin picture and looked at it for a short time before he said seriously: "Young Master, I dare not hide it. This thing is a good thing, but it is not a priceless treasure. Please look at it. This animal skin is leopard skin, which is not a difficult thing to find in the Central Plains. Although the portrait is carved vividly, the artistic conception is not the mainstream of Central Plains culture. The best thing is that the knife skills are meticulous and extraordinary." After a pause, he glanced at the malicious Dong Dong next to him, and said in a deep voice: "Yun Dong Home, our buying price cannot be known to you, but this young master is present. In order to show the sincerity of my Guan Family Trade Company, I am willing to pay twenty-five taels of silver to buy this item."
A smile appeared on Han Mo's lips.
This animal skin map is in Nanyang, and the market is worth two taels of silver, which is not low. The old shopkeeper offered twenty-five taels of silver, which was more than ten times higher, which is a relatively sincere price.
Sure enough, Dong Dong Yun laughed and pointed at the old shopkeeper and said, "Sun Laojiu, Sun Laojiu, I knew you would fool this young master. Your Guan family trade business is really seeking fame. I, Yun Shilan, can't stand it anymore!"
