MTL - After Two Lifetimes I Was Reborn Back Inside A Book-Chapter 20 Wear it back on the 20th day (repair)
Jiang Chen nodded firmly: "Seven hundred thousand."
"700,000..." the old man murmured, not coming back to his senses for several minutes, "700,000, can I live in the city, can I give Miao Miao a city hukou, and let her live in the city?" Go to school in the city?"
Jiang Chen didn't know about the household registration, but he was sure about other things: "You can buy a house and go to school."
"Buy a house and go to school, Miao Miao can go to the city to study... She can study hard and be as smart as her parents... Young man, thank you, thank you for telling me this." The old man grabbed Jiang Chen's hand and shook it: "Thank you so much .”
"you are welcome."
The old man wiped his face, put away his excitement, and shoved the ancient coin he was saving into Jiang Chen's hand with some embarrassment: "Young man, this coin is for you, you accept it."
Jiang Chen was taken aback for a moment, and looked up to see the sincere and kind face of the old man. He was surprised for a moment, then suddenly realized, smiled and shook his head and said, "I can't take it."
"Why not?" The old man insisted on giving it to him, and said, "You can take it. If it weren't for you, Miao Miao might have been scratched by the cat, and without you, the money would be useless to me. I'm old, Miao Miao Miao has not studied for a few years, so he may never know the value of this money in his whole life, you can tell us this, it has changed our whole life."
"Grandpa..."
The old man interrupted him, with a kind smile in his clear eyes: "Just outside, you saw the value of the money in Miaomiao's hand at a glance. If you want, you can take the money away directly, or lie to me Miao Miao gave you the money, but you didn’t, not only didn’t you, but you brought Miao Miao back, and told me the value of the money without reservation, you are worthy of me repaying you with this ancient coin.”
"Besides, I'm old, I haven't been out of the village for more than ten years, and I'm not a native of Yan City. Even if I know the value of this money, I can't turn it into cash. I will give you this coin, not only It is to repay you, and I also hope that you can help me turn the money into cash, and doing this through you can be regarded as paying for your hard work."
Jiang Chen was curious: "Aren't you worried that I won't come back after taking your money?"
"What am I worried about." The old man smiled: "I've lived for so long, I can't do anything else, but people believe in yourself. The things you have done are enough to see your character. You are a trustworthy good man. I believe in you, child."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen no longer refused: "I will not disappoint your trust."
The next afternoon, Jiang Chen brought the ancient coins to the largest auction house in Yan City.
The receptionist at the front desk was full of smiles. Even when facing Jiang Chen, who was wearing simple clothes, she was still kind and enthusiastic. She put the water on the small tea table in the living room and said, "Student Jiang, may I ask you which photos you want to send?" What is the lot?"
Jiang Chen took out a math book from his school bag, the receptionist didn't change his face, but the two assistants behind her looked at each other, and after exchanging a look, they looked at Jiang Chen who was flipping through the book without any trace.
The paper pages cut through the air, revealing the things caught in the pages amidst the clattering sound.
"This is..." The receptionist's eyes opened slightly: "...the two bills from the Hubei Official Money Bureau?"
Jiang Chen nodded, the corners of his mouth slightly curved: "This is something I'm going to auction at your bank."
The receptionist put away the expression he just showed, and said with a smile, "Is it this one? Or does Mr. Jiang have other items?"
"More than one."
"You wait."
The receptionist looked at the people behind, nodded, and went out with their mobile phones.
A few minutes later, a young man in a suit and leather shoes came in. He smiled and held out his hand: "Mr. Jiang, I am Zeng Fei, the manager of Shiyang Auction House."
"It was sorted out."
Zeng Fei looked at the young man in front of him without any trace, and said with a smile on his face: "Sit, sit, sit, I heard that you have a double-image bank note printed in the 30th year of Guangxu?"
Jiang Chen withdrew his hand, sat down across from him, and pointed at the ancient coin between the pages of the book: "There are four in total, and this is one of them. If you want to check the authenticity, you can take a look at this one first."
Zeng Fei was not sloppy, as soon as he raised his hand, a person with a full set of tools came forward behind him, wearing white gloves and a magnifying glass to examine carefully.
Not long after, the man straightened up and nodded to Zeng Fei.
Zeng Fei smiled, and said to Jiang Chen: "Mr. Jiang, forgive me, but I want to ask, is this banknote in your family's collection or... It's not that I want to pry into the privacy of the guests, but you are underage. It's not easy for us to explain to your family if you sell the things of the adults in the family."
Jiang Chen's eyebrows twitched slightly. It turned out that Zeng Fei and the others regarded him as the second generation who took him away from the family's elders and auctioned him off. This could explain why the first few receptionists were so enthusiastic when they saw him, although they didn't know about it. Why people are so misunderstood, but it is not bad for him.
Jiang Chen avoided the seriousness and said lightly: "Don't worry, I have the approval of the owner of the silver ticket. If not, I wouldn't take four at a time."
"That way I can rest assured." Zeng Fei smiled. Anyway, the things are in their hands, and the money and goods are cleared. If someone comes to make trouble, they will take it for granted. In fact, if the boss hadn’t come here to catch up on sleep on a whim today, and just happened to meet this scene and asked him to come and see, he would never have done more. This question.
"To tell you the truth." Zeng Fei continued: "Actually, we have a regular customer here who loves to collect ancient coins. If you are in a hurry to ask for money, you don't have to wait until our auction on the 15th. Take the lead and help you contact that collector, if he wants it, he will most likely accept your four double portraits in a package."
Jiang Chen: "I want to know Zeng Li's estimated price, auction price and transaction price."
"If it is an auction, I personally estimate the highest transaction price to be about 850,000 yuan, but the premise is that it is a single shot, and rare things are more expensive. I believe Mr. Jiang understands this, but I can guarantee that these four double portraits will We will help you with all of them within half a year."
"If it's a private transaction, that person has always been generous. I believe that if you want to sell it as a package, it is the most cost-effective to find him."
Jiang Chen pondered for a moment, then raised his eyes and said, "I need some time to discuss. If it is a private transaction, how will the auction house's commission be calculated? There is still time."
"Five percent, three days at the latest."
"I'll give you an answer tomorrow."
After sending Jiang Chen to the door and watching him leave, Zeng Fei turned around and got on the elevator, which stopped on the top floor.
He knocked on the door: "Boss, Young Master Li."
"Come in." The man who opened the door had peach blossom eyes, three buttons of his wine red shirt were unbuttoned, and his hair was messy: "Little Fatty, how many times have I told you, the knock on the door should be louder, it's just that guy Shi Fengyue I can hear your knock on the door."
Zeng Fei nodded with a smile, and walked over him to the man in black who was lazily nestling on the couch with his eyes closed.
"Boss, Mr. Jiang Xiao downstairs is auctioning two silver bills from the Hubei Official Money Bureau in the 30th year of Guangxu. He has four in total. It doesn't look like he needs money urgently, but according to my observation, He may be leaning more towards a private deal."
Shi Fengyue didn't open his eyes, grabbed a pillow and put it in his arms, and said lazily, "I'll take it if there's no problem."
"OK."
Li Nanfeng sat down by his armrest, pulled out the pillow from his arms, and asked before he lost his temper: "Who is that kid? Last time you got off the car at the hospital gate because of him, right? There is not much difference in age, which one?"
Shi Fengyue pulled back the pillow, hugged him loosely in his arms, and said in a hoarse voice full of tiredness, "The son of a patient."
Li Nanfeng shook his head while clicking his tongue: "I don't know, we are a great doctor at that time, and we still have warm feelings of caring about patients' families, but..."
"You keep disturbing me to sleep—" Shi Fengyue's slender fingers pinched Li Nanfeng's neck, and he opened his misty eyes, and said darkly, "I'll let you feel my warmth."
"Come on!" Li Nanfeng opened his arms and fell into his arms: "Brother is willing to sacrifice himself for you."
Shi Fengyue couldn't help laughing, turned over and kicked him off the sofa: "Go away."
"Okay, I'm leaving." Li Nanfeng stood up rubbing his buttocks, and said with a smile: "Let's have dinner tonight, sleep well, and brother will pick you up later."
When Shi Fengyue threw the pillow away, Li Nanfeng laughed and avoided it, and went out with Zeng Fei.
As soon as the door was closed, the man on the sofa closed his eyes. He was lying on the sofa with tall legs and long legs. He could only curl up and hug the pillow and fell asleep on his side. He breathed evenly within a few minutes.
When I woke up again, the sun was already setting.
Shi Fengyue was too lazy to get up, just lying on the sofa, looking halfway down at the orange-yellow outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The sound of knocking on the wooden door was barely audible, his eyelashes moved, and his voice was a little hoarse after waking up: "Come in."
"Boss." Zeng Fei walked in, stopped three steps away from the sofa, and reported: "Mr. Jiang's ancient coin is not a problem, but it does not match my guess. He collected it from an old man in Donghua Village. Yes, it is said that he went to Donghua Village for an outing, and accidentally met the old man’s child playing with ancient coins, so he sent the child home, and told the old man in the child’s family the value of the ancient coins. Thanks to him for realizing the ancient coin at the same time, so that the scene in the morning happened."
Shi Fengyue raised his hand, his bony fingers covered his eyes, covering the orange sunset, and said in a low voice, "Zeng Fei, you have to change your habit of finding out the truth when you encounter new things, you have to change."
"I thought the boss would be interested." Zeng Fei smiled, without the strict restraint just now, leaning on the sofa and said: "Li Shao said that you look at Mr. Jiang Xiao differently, of course I am also curious, and since you want to trade, it is natural to know yourself and your enemy." good."
Under the slender fingers, the eyes slowly opened, Shi Fengyue suddenly remembered the conversation between the mother and the child that he overheard in the hospital, and the young man's smile like a bright and bright moon could still appear in front of his eyes among the clusters of flowers. He bent his eyes suddenly: "Just to remind you, Jiang Chen is not as harmless as you imagined, it's best not to play tricks on him."
