Chapter 58: Money comes from all directions, Lao Qin, come quickly!
As for gold ingots with collection value, netizens suggested to Tu Huan that she should try her luck at antique markets. If she is lucky, she can get good prices.
Tu Huan didn't know whether she was lucky or not, because after she pushed open the door to wealth coming from all directions, there was no one in the store.
Only a parrot, perched on a hanging by the window, saw someone coming into the store and called out joyfully, "Welcome! Where are you from? What do you want to buy?"
Tu Huan paused, looked up and saw a parrot speaking human language, and couldn't help laughing.
The emerald-feathered parrot turned its head and yelled frantically, "Guests are coming! Guests are coming! Lao Qin is out to greet the guests!"
Tu Huan almost laughed out loud when she heard this; she'd never seen anyone so talkative. She found Bafang Laicai's antique shop quite interesting, and since no one was there to greet her, she didn't leave, so she simply looked around.
The shop is divided into two floors. When Tu Huan came in from the outside, she felt that the shop was not small. But when she came in, she found that the main antique area was not very large. A curtain door in the middle divided the first floor into two areas, the outside was for business, and the inside seemed to be the owner's private rest area.
Money comes from all directions, and the fame is very materialistic. But when you come in, you will find it very literary, with incense, running water, and quiet Buddhist chants. Once the door is closed, the noise outside seems to have nothing to do with the tranquility inside.
But in such an elegant place, there was a very down-to-earth and noisy parrot. Seeing her wandering around the store, it patiently repeated its signature words: "Welcome! Where are you from? What do you want to buy?"
Tu Huan teased her: "If you don't buy it, you're not welcome?"
The parrot's brain crashed: "..."
It seemed like it didn't understand, but that didn't stop it from continuing to shout: "Lao Qin is coming out to greet customers! Lao Qin is coming out to greet customers!"
Tu Huan laughed for a long time.
The owner of this shop must be a very interesting person, as it appeals to both the elite and the masses.
H City is considered a semi-tourist city because several neighboring cities were also considered a large region in ancient times, with similar cultural customs. So today, under the guidance of policies, they jointly create tourism resources. The history and unique geographical resources of H City have created a certain popularity.
Antiques are a lukewarm business in H City, not as prosperous as first-tier cities in terms of heritage and bustle, but they also have their own unique regional features. Relying on the famous mountains and rivers, many enthusiasts from other places come here every year to pick up bargains.
Tu Huan really didn't know these things before, but today she decided to try her luck and search for relevant information on the Internet. Some things are like this. You never come into contact with them before and you think they don't exist, but once you come into contact with them one day, you will find in the future that you can always see related things wherever you go.
Tu Huan was looking at antiques downstairs, while in the leisure living room on the second floor, four people were playing mahjong around a table.
"Bang! East wind." A low voice.
The dealer was feeding the cards, and the guy next door couldn't help but kick him, "Damn, do you know how to play cards? You're feeding them!"
"That's right, why don't you feed me a card? Seven of a kind!" The man opposite the dealer threw a card, picked up the wine next to him and took a sip. He happened to see a figure swaying in the picture downstairs on the monitor next to him.
"Lao Qin, someone is coming to the store."
Qin Lang finished his cards, took a puff of cigarette, looked up, and said, "Don't worry."
The man on the right raised his head slightly when he heard this and said calmly, "Let's go down and take a look."
Qin Lang knocked off the ash from his cigarette and said, "Alright, then you guys go ahead and have fun, I'll go down and take a look."
After saying that, he stood up and gave the other two a look: Take good care of my third brother.
Qin Lang put out his cigarette, picked up a bottle of drink and went downstairs to entertain the guests. As he turned the corner, he heard the new guest talking to his silly bird.
"Old Qin is here to receive customers!"
"Shut your stinky mouth."
Qin Lang lifted the curtain and couldn't help cursing.
That bastard Lei Zi never says anything nice to it.
Tu Huan heard the noise behind her and turned around to see the owner of the store. There was some surprise in her eyes. She thought that with such old-fashioned decoration style, the owner would be an older person, but she didn't expect him to be a young man.
Qin Lang also looked at her, with not much change in his eyes. Every day, more and more people came in and out of his shop. The experienced ones would directly send messages to him, and most of the new faces were just passing by and checking in.
However, the appearance and complexion of the woman in front of him could not help but make his eyes light up. She was a pretty girl.
As a professional habit, Qin Lang glanced around and paused for a moment on the jade necklace on her wrist.
He put down his drink, walked to the tea table and sat down. He nodded slightly to Tu Huan and greeted her without saying much, letting her look around.
However, the smile in Qin Lang's eyes was much kinder and gentler than when he just came downstairs. The girl was not very old, and the things she wore were really nice. She seemed to be a powerful customer.
There are many antique shops on Zhenbao Street, some good and some bad. Generally, the shops sell a mix of real and fake goods, and the transactions are based solely on the owner's preferences.
The shop owner usually doesn't greet customers who come in, and it all depends on the buyer's eyesight. Some people come in and take a look around and leave, while others study the things carefully for a long time. Qin Lang, who was upstairs, noticed that she was walking leisurely downstairs and didn't seem like someone who was in a hurry, so he put out his cigarette and came down to greet her.
The Qin family has an unwritten family rule in running this business: either don't entertain guests, or do your best and don't neglect them.
Since he came down, he didn't care what the brothers upstairs did.
Boil water and make tea, waiting for buyers.
Tu Huan hadn't come to buy antiques, she had come to sell gold ingots. Seeing the shop owner come out, she stopped browsing and sat down at the tea table. She asked directly, "Are you buying things here?"
Qin Lang, holding the teacup, suddenly realized that he was here to ship the goods.
He nodded and smiled, "I'll take it, but it depends on what it is. I won't take anything that comes from an unknown source."
Tu Huan frowned, how could he be of unknown origin?
Qin Lang felt a pang of anxiety when he saw her like this, but since she was obviously a novice, he reminded her, "It's illegal."
"Where's the gold?"
Qin Lang was amused. He was startled, but gold was still easier to deal with.
"Have you brought anything? Let me take a look first. I'll have to see the situation with the gold as well."
If he dug out gold from under the tomb, he would have to weigh it carefully.
Tu Huan took out the gold ingots and placed them on the tea table. Qin Lang's eyes lit up instantly!
Hey, this little thing is really rare.
"Wait a moment." Qin Lang turned around and took out a pair of white gloves from behind, then carefully took Tu Huan's gold ingot in his hand and looked at it carefully.
While the shop owner was studying, Tu Huan looked around and found that on the shelf behind the shop owner, there was a dagger with ancient carvings, which was very eye-catching.
The first time she saw the dagger, she thought of Xie Yuchuan.
"Could you please tell me where this ingot of yours comes from?" Qin Lang asked out of habit.
"My family gave it to me." She is the Xie family's household god, and they are currently considered a family, so there is nothing wrong with that.
