Early on, it's about family matters, and later it becomes about the daily life of farming and living in the mountains. The space isn't that large; it can only store supplies, grow vegetable...
His friend owns a fairly large antique shop, which can be considered a succession of his father's business. Although he has not yet made a name for himself in the antique world, his father has a considerable reputation in the antique world. He is a senior antique appraiser who often participates in archaeological activities and treasure appraisal programs on TV. He has seen many rare and precious items.
It seems that the ancient coin is not only genuine, but also quite valuable.
The man on the other end of the phone cried out, "Dude, don't! My old man said that this is probably currency from the late Tang Dynasty. Back then, warlords ruled the country and the world was in chaos. There aren't many of these kinds of currencies left in existence, so they are extremely precious. No matter how many the master has, he has to take them all."
"Besides, someone who would get you, Young Master Shi, to personally intervene, I naturally have to show them respect. Don't worry, the price I'm offering is definitely the highest in the entire industry. Fifty thousand per piece, how about that? Not low, right?"
"It's not up to me to decide this, let me ask around for you first." Shi Guang was quite satisfied with the price.
"Alright, alright, then hurry up and ask him! The old man is waiting for my reply. Also, if it's inconvenient for the master to come to Haishi, I can fly there anytime..."
"Nonsense." Before the other person could finish speaking, Shiguang hung up the phone.
As dawn broke, the hospital, which had been asleep, gradually awoke.
Inside a VIP ward.
Lin Momo, who had been drinking porridge all day, was woken up by the urge to urinate. The caregiver helped her to the bathroom and gave her a quick wash.
After coming out, Lin Momo didn't want to go back to her hospital bed, so the caregiver helped her sit down on the sofa by the window.
"Girl, what's your relationship with that Mr. Shi? Are you boyfriend and girlfriend?" The caregiver, who was in her forties, had a gossipy heart.
Lin shook her head and denied it: "No."
The caregiver imagined, "You two don't look like siblings. Oh, I know, Mr. Shi is pursuing you, right?"
Before Lin could speak, she continued to mutter to herself, "Your boyfriend is so good to you. Not only is he willing to pay for your hospital stay and put you in such a high-class ward, but he also comes to the hospital almost every day to stay by your bedside, hoping that you will wake up soon. His family must be very rich."
"Let me tell you, these days it's hard to find a man as good as him even with a lantern. You're so lucky to have met him, you'd better hold on tight."
"Yes, he is indeed a nice person." Lin replied vaguely, then subtly changed the subject, "It's getting late, Auntie, why don't you go to the cafeteria for lunch? Bring me back a bowl of millet porridge and a steamed bun."
I guess I can eat a little more today.
Reminded by Lin Youqing, the aunt glanced at the wall clock, slapped her thigh, and exclaimed, "Oh dear, it's almost eight o'clock! The doctor should be making rounds soon. Okay, okay, I'll go right now."
With that, he got up and walked towards the outer door.
Lin Momo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
To everyone's surprise, a cheerful exclamation came from the doorway the next moment: "Oh, Mr. Shi, you're here! You even brought lunch for Miss Lin, which she hasn't eaten yet."
As she spoke, she subconsciously turned around and glanced at Lin Momo on the sofa, then looked at Shiguang at the door and laughed happily, "Then you two chat, I'm going to eat."
"I brought steamed buns and soy milk for Auntie." Shiguang showed her the bag she was carrying in her other hand.
Witnessing all this, Lin Momo couldn't help but mutter to herself: No wonder this auntie likes him, she's quite good at dealing with people.
Today, he is radiant and his eyes are shining.
His dark shirt, with the collar slightly open and the cuffs casually rolled up, made him look even more dashing and handsome, exuding an aura of a business elite with every move.
He was completely different from the person he was when he was dressed casually.
I must say, this person looks great in shirts.
Clearly, he himself was well aware of this.
Lin Momo couldn't help but find it amusing. He wasn't here to work, so why did he have to dress like this?
Weren't you here on a trip?
Why did you bring this whole outfit in your suitcase? Don't you think it takes up too much space?
Of course, although Lin Momo has never been in a serious relationship, she has never lacked suitors from school to the workplace; in addition, she has a certain innate ability to understand straight men, and she can tell the subtle thoughts of the boys who get close to her at a glance.
At this moment, time seemed to her like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.
Moreover, this person made no attempt to hide his little schemes from Lin Momo.
If Lin Momo had previously dismissed Shi Guang's confession as half-hearted, she could no longer deceive herself at this moment.
Lin Momo pretended to be calm and looked out the window.
Meanwhile, at the doorway, an old man and a young man were still having a friendly and cordial conversation.
"Oh? You brought some for me too! Here, give it to me. I'll go back and eat it. I won't bother you young people anymore." The aunt was overjoyed and even more satisfied with the young man, consciously creating opportunities for him and not being an annoying third wheel.
Time smiled politely, offering no attempt to hold me back.
The aunt happily accepted her breakfast and then happily left.
Shi Guang smiled as she glanced at Lin Momo, who was pretending to admire the scenery, closed the door, and walked straight towards her: "Did you sleep well last night?"
"Hmm, not bad." Lin Momo replied after adjusting her mindset, and casually asked, "Why did you come so early?"
I want to see you as soon as possible.
Lin Momo almost choked on her own saliva.
This person is way too outgoing.
Suddenly, she had a strange feeling that he must have overheard her conversation with her aunt and was deliberately testing her.
Shi Guang sat down on the single sofa next to her, placing the breakfast she was carrying on the small coffee table between the two sofas, and said gently, "You must be hungry. Eat first. I bought you millet porridge and vegetarian buns. The nurse said you can eat more today."
Lin Momo was indeed starving, so she readily picked up the steamed buns and devoured them.
To get her to eat more slowly, Shiguang told her the results of the ancient coin appraisal and said, "My friend is planning to buy the ancient coins you have for 50,000 each. He's asking if you're willing to sell them?"
"Yes, yes!" Lin Momo, whose mouth was stuffed full of buns, was overjoyed and swallowed the buns in her mouth, responding repeatedly.
Fifty thousand one.
It's like becoming rich overnight! Happiness came too suddenly.
This price far exceeded her expectations; she originally thought she could only sell it for 20,000 or 30,000 at most.
Of course, if she were to take it to an antique shop to sell herself, those profit-driven merchants would never offer such a high price.
This shows just how important connections are.
Shiguang handed her the bowl of porridge and smiled gently, "No rush, have a sip of porridge first, be careful not to choke. We can chat slowly after you've finished eating."
"Mmm." Lin Momo felt reassured and gave Shi Guang a bright smile.
