The 76th day of being eavesdropped

At dusk,

Lin Wenxiang was talking to someone when his son came in from outside and said, "Dad, someone is here."

"Here?" Lin Wenyuan stood up from his chair excitedly.

"Second brother!"

Lin Wenxiang looked at Lin Wenyuan unhappily.

Lin Wenyuan had no choice but to sit down patiently.

Lin Wenxiang looked at the man next to him and said, "Brother Wei, I need your help this time. That liar is very calculating and difficult to deal with."

"Don't worry about that. I am not good at other things, but I am good at cheating people." Brother Wei laughed and spoke very cheerfully.

The two brothers Lin Bohu couldn't help looking at him, and they just felt curious and puzzled.

They also met Brother Wei for the first time, but they found that this Brother Wei was completely different from the liar they imagined. Not only was he upright, he spoke frankly and generously, and he even made people feel very close.

Tom, He Fei and others came in. As soon as they entered the hall, Tom smiled and greeted Lin Wenxiang, "Brother Lin, I came at the wrong time."

Lin Wenxiang pretended to be embarrassed and coughed, "Mr. Tom, what are you talking about? I'm very happy that you came, but why didn't you tell us in advance so that we could be prepared."

He said this and glared at He Fei calmly.

He Fei shrank his neck and hid behind the crowd.

Tom smiled and said, "What should I prepare? We have known each other for so long that we are friends. You are being too polite. Are you hiding something from me? I heard from Xiao He that you still have some good stuff."

"Mr. Lin, who is this?"

Wei Yuan stood up. His Zhongshan suit was straight and he had a Hero brand fountain pen in his pocket. He was a little fat, but his bearing seemed to be of great origin.

Tom looked at him quietly and was secretly alert.

Lin Wenxiang quickly introduced each other, and Wei Yuan suddenly realized, "Oh, so it was you who bought the Lin family's antiques. I was wondering why when I came here to buy some goods, Mr. Lin said they were sold out."

"Mr. Wei, isn't this just a coincidence?" Tom smiled, "I also want to buy some jadeite, but I heard that..." He paused and looked at Lin Wenxiang, "Brother Lin left all the goods to you, I wonder if you are willing to give up some? After all, it's not easy for me to go back to China."

Tom said, sitting down in the main seat vacated by Lin Wenxiang.

Lin Bohu and his brother went downstairs to bring up the tea. Tom picked up the cup, sniffed it carefully, and praised: "Good tea, is this Dianhong?"

"Not bad, didn't you say you liked this tea last time?" Lin Bohu glanced at Lin Wenxiang and said: "My father asked someone to buy some and keep it at home. I will send you some when you leave."

"Okay, brother Lin is really thoughtful."

Tom seemed very touched.

Lin Wenxiang smiled and said: "What's the matter, our two families will visit each other frequently in the future. If you are so polite, I will be angry."

Tom smiled, but his eyebrows and eyes showed a look of enjoyment.

Lin Wenxiang cursed in his heart, thinking that when the things are returned, I will kill you!

"This..." Wei Yuan held the enamel cup in his hand and turned the cup lid. The mist blurred his eyebrows and wrinkled his thick eyebrows. "These goods are not enough for me. I wanted to buy some antiques to take back. The antiques are gone. If I can't buy all the goods, how can I do business after I go back?"

Listen to the words and listen to the tone.

Tom heard it. He put down the teacup and said, "From what Mr. Wei said, what if I exchange antiques with you?"

"Mr. Tang..."

Lin Wenxiang sighed and opened his mouth to stop him.

Tom made a gesture not to interrupt and stared at Wei Yuan intently.

Wei Yuan frowned and thought for a while. He stroked the cup and said after a while:

"It's not impossible, but I have to see the goods first."

"That's easy. What about the goods over there?" Tom's heart moved. Although there are many good goods among the antiques given by the Lin family, there are also many that are just for the sake of quantity. They can't be sold at a high price at home or abroad. Instead of taking them out with great difficulty and being careful about whether they will break, it is better to exchange them for jade.

"My goods are still in Mr. Lin's hands."

Wei Yuan said, "If you are willing, then bring the goods here, and we can see if there are any that we like."

Tom couldn't wait to hear him say this, and quickly asked George to take people back to the hotel to move the goods they bought back.

There were seven boxes of goods.

Each box contained at least a dozen or twenty antiques. Tom motioned to George to open the box and said, "Take a look for yourself."

Wei Yuan looked at Lin Wenxiang, who coughed and said, "Bohu, go get our jade."

Lin Bohu went to get the jade.

Wei Yuan stood up to look at the antiques, and Gu Jinshui, He Fei and others also took the opportunity to broaden their horizons.

It's really hard to know until you see it. Gu Jinshui thought he had seen enough good stuff, but when he saw the Lin family's belongings, he knew what it meant to show off in front of Lu Ban.

Three-color ox carts, double fish-shaped pots, five-color fighting chicken bowls, Shanglin copper square stoves, Ge kiln six-curved sunflower-mouthed plates...

It's no exaggeration to say that the things in these boxes are more than enough to build a museum.

Gu Jinshui looked at Tom who was concentrating on looking at the jade. This old guy was really greedy. If he sold any of these antiques, he could make at least a hundred times the profit, but this old guy was reluctant to even take out the original money.

No wonder the Lin family hated him to the core.

"Good, good, this water head, this luster, are all top-quality."

Tom praised endlessly, holding an imperial green necklace in his hand, playing with it lovingly.

Although it is said that you have to be picky when buying things, the jade in front of him is so good that he even doubts whether it is fake.

But think about it carefully, how is it possible? If I hadn't come here today, these goods would have been bought by others.

Wei Yuan frowned slightly and said, "Mr. Tang, I don't want to give you this one. You should choose something else."

Tom's heart tightened. He looked at Wei Yuan's unhappy eyes and felt happy. He smiled and said, "Brother Wei, you are too stingy. There are so many good things. Why don't you give this one to me?"

He pointed at the seven boxes and said, "I'm willing to give you one box."

It's not that Tom is generous, but he knows that the imperial green is in short supply. Just this one piece can be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars outside.

Wei Yuan was indifferent, "Don't even think about it. Why do I need a box of goods? With this one piece, I can buy several boxes of antiques."

He glanced at the box and said, "Besides, antiques are not easy to sell now. They are far less popular than jade."

"You are wrong."

Tom took great pains to trick Wei Yuan into giving up the goods. "Look at these antiques. They are rare treasures. Although they are not as valuable as this jade, if you meet someone who likes them, you can make a lot of money."

Wei Yuan's face was a little relieved.

He looked at the antiques with a doubtful look in his eyes.

Tom immediately said to Lin Wenxiang, "Brother Lin, I want this thing. What's your price?"

Lin Wenxiang said with a smile, "You asked the wrong person. We all took Mr. Wei's money. Mr. Wei is the one who can decide on these things."

Wei Yuan smiled and said, "Mr. Tom, this is not very kind. I haven't even agreed yet."

Tom was thick-skinned and not embarrassed at all. He said self-deprecatingly, "There's nothing we can do. As traders like us, who wouldn't be jealous of this good thing? Since The things are yours, Mr. Wei, so please name a price. What would it take for you to sell them to me?"

Lin Wenxiang also helped to speak, "Yes, Mr. Wei, you are a friend of our family, and Mr. Tom is also our friend, and Mr. Tom is abroad, so you may need each other in the future."

Wei Yuan was persuaded, and he moved his lips and said, "Okay, if you insist, then leave these seven boxes to me, and I will exchange them with you."

He said this intentionally to make things difficult.

Who knew that Tom actually nodded immediately and said, "Okay, let's make a deal!"

Wei Yuan was stunned, and Tom looked at him and couldn't help but smile proudly, "Mr. Wei, you are a gentleman of your word, and we will not change this deal."

He put the imperial green necklace in his pocket, feeling extremely happy.

Although he felt sorry for the seven boxes, he did not think that the transaction was a loss. After all, he got these things for nothing. If he got the necklace, it would be much easier to sell it later than selling antiques.

"No, no."

Wei Yuan looked at his expression and regretted it in his heart. He hurriedly said, "I was just joking. Why did you take it seriously?"

"Hey." Tom smiled, but pushed Wei Yuan's hand away: "We don't like to joke when doing business. It's a spit and a nail. The transaction is done. Whoever regrets it will be a grandson."

Lin Wenxiang also said, "Mr. Wei, you just admit it."

Wei Yuan's face changed, and his expression was like swallowing a fly alive.

Lin Wenxiang personally sent Tom out. Tom patted Lin Wenxiang's shoulder warmly, "Brother Lin, you are really my brother. I will never forget you after I go back."

"I will never forget you either." Lin Wenxiang smiled and said, "You sound like you are leaving?"

"Yes, I plan to leave

the day after tomorrow." Tom said. He looked around and said, "I have been back for a long time. I miss home a little. Brother, if you have the chance in the future, you must come to me abroad and let me treat you well."

"Of course." Lin Wenxiang nodded.

He watched Tom and his group leave, then went back. When he returned to the house, Lin Bohu and his brothers looked at him.

Lin Wenxiang nodded, "The person has left."

"Dad, that's great. We got our things back!" Lin Bohu was very happy, his face flushed, and his eyes were burning as he looked at the box on the ground.

Lin Wenxiang clasped his fists to Wei Yuan, "Thank you for your help today."

"No way."

Wei Yuan said, "I can't stand this kind of liar. It ruins our reputation as liar. Besides, Brother Lin, you helped me before, this time I can repay you."

Lin Wenxiang smiled and said, "Brother Wei is really polite."

Lin Jiyuan held out a red envelope, Lin Wenxiang took it personally and handed it to Wei Yuan, "This is a little gift from our family. Thank you for your hard work."

He Fei took a look and saw that the red envelope had a bulge, which looked like a small yellow croaker.

He couldn't help but be amazed. The Lin family really has some wealth.

No wonder they can find such a person.

Wei Yuan didn't hesitate to accept it directly, and exchanged a few words with Lin Wenxiang before leaving.

Lin Wenxiang and his son and others looked at He Fei and his group.

Lin Wenxiang looked at He Fei, then at Gu Jinshui, "Little Gu, you have helped our family a lot this time. I heard from He Fei before that you came here specifically to shovel the land."

"Yes." Gu Jinshui nodded.

Lin Wenxiang said to the Lin Bohu brothers, "Go and carry the things over."

Carry them over?

He Fei's ears moved. Could it be some valuable items?
