Thank you so much for your support! I don't know what to say to thank you. Although the ratings don't seem to have changed much, I still want to thank you! Thank you!
My uncle looked at the card with confusion but didn't take it.
"Yang Jing, what are you doing? You can honor me by buying some good wine and cigarettes for my uncle, but what do you mean by giving me the card?"
"Uncle, please keep it first, and I will explain it to you later, okay?"
The uncle shook his head slowly, smiled and said, "Yang Jing, I appreciate your kindness. But I'm not short of money now. Although the company is not doing well now, it can still bring me tens of thousands of yuan in income a year. Your grandma and grandpa both have pensions, and the family doesn't spend much money. I basically have no place to spend money now. Besides, you just graduated and need to find a job, and you will have to find a partner in the future. There are so many places to spend money. Why are you giving me money? If you have money, why don't you save it yourself!"
Hearing this, Yang Jing felt a pang in his heart.
Tianqu City is not big, with a population of only about 600,000, so the cost of living in Tianqu is not very high. Except for the rising house prices every day, every month, and every year, the cost of living in Tianqu City is not high.
If an average family of three spends more than 2,000 yuan a month on food, they can eat very well.
Before my grandfather fell ill, my uncle's business was pretty good, earning about 200,000 to 300,000 yuan a year, which was considered a high income in Tianqu City seven or eight years ago.
Although the company's performance is not very good now, we can still earn 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a year, which is almost the same as the salary of an ordinary worker.
Although my uncle is not short of money now, he has a house and a car, but the company's performance has deteriorated because of my grandparents. But my uncle has no complaints and still takes care of the old couple at home diligently.
Yang Jing knew very well that as the only male of the second generation of the Li family, his uncle was now the mainstay of the family. In the past, his uncle was also a prominent figure. No matter what he did, he did it well. If his uncle had been developing at the same pace as before, if his grandparents had not been ill, he would not be able to say that he would be over 10 million now, but he should have no problem earning a million a year.
But life is sometimes so helpless. My grandparents’ illness not only tortured the two elderly people, but also made my uncle, who originally had a good future, feel a little ashamed.
My uncle used to be such a proud and high-spirited person, but now...
But even so, my uncle still persists proudly.
Yang Jing stuffed the card into his uncle's hand without hesitation, staring into his eyes and said, "Uncle, you and my family don't know about my recent situation. I will explain it to you slowly later, so don't rush to reject your nephew's kindness. To tell you the truth, there is 500,000 yuan in this card. To be honest, this amount of money is not much for your nephew now. Just take it as pocket money."
"Five hundred thousand? And that's pocket money! Where did you get so much money?" The uncle was shocked.
Yang Jing smiled slightly, raised his left hand, pointed at the Patek Philippe Platinum World Time watch on his wrist and said, "Uncle, take a look at this watch."
My uncle turned his head away, and he couldn't turn it back again.
After a long while, the uncle stammered, "Yang Jing, don't tell me this is a real Patek Philippe, and it's a world time watch?"
It can be seen that my uncle was really shocked and he even swore, which was rare.
My grandfather was an expert in antiques. As his grandfather's only son, my uncle was trained by him when he was young. Although my uncle didn't play with antiques much later, he learned a lot back then. And like his sister, my uncle also likes to study watches.
Yang Jing nodded and said, "Uncle, you are not mistaken, this is indeed a real Patek Philippe."
My uncle's body stiffened for a moment, then he slapped his forehead with an expression of disbelief.
The uncle knew very well that even the most common Patek Philippe watch would cost no less than 10,000 Euros, which meant that his nephew was wearing a watch worth more than 10,000 Euros, which was 60,000 to 70,000 RMB! In comparison, the 6,000 RMB Rado mechanical watch in his hand was nothing.
"Uncle, this watch is not an ordinary Patek Philippe. Let me put it this way. Currently, there are only two watches of this style in the world. Another watch of the same style was sold at the Antiquorum auction in 2002 for a high price of 4.06 million US dollars. Although I don't know how much this watch can be sold for now, it will definitely not be less than 5 million US dollars, or even more."
"Ah..." My uncle let out a meaningless sigh with a dazed look on his face.
Yang Jing continued, "There is also the Duan inkstone and the snuff bottle that my grandfather played with. If they were to be sold now, they could be sold for about half a million. And last month, when Guo Xiaoxiang, the fat guy in my dormitory, and I were out working, we found three Picasso sketches in an ancient castle. Those three paintings were eventually sold for 2.7 million pounds..."
After a long while, the uncle shook his head and asked in disbelief: "Yang Jing, you mean to say that you found some bargains abroad? And you found several big bargains?"
Yang Jing shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yes, I bought those three Picasso sketches for 500 pounds, and as for this watch, I bought it for 10,000 pounds. They are all big bargains!"
