Lin Qingqing carefully wiped the bicycle with clean water, and found something wrong as she was wiping.
This bicycle was different from all the bicycles she had seen because she saw the Three Guns trademark on the handlebars. Lin Qingqing's heart suddenly started beating faster. Emma, could this be the famous foreign brand Three Guns bicycle?
She hurriedly took a closer look at the body of the bicycle and was basically sure that it was a Sanqiang brand bicycle.
Because in her previous life she had visited a foreign museum and had seen cars of the same brand there.
It is said that the materials used for this brand of bicycles are extremely special, all coming from weapons left over from World War I!
It is also for this reason that this brand of bicycles is priced extremely high and produced in very small quantities. It can be said that each one is a limited edition and has a very high collection value. In later generations, some people even speculated that this brand of bicycles was worth several million each, which is equivalent to the value of a sports car!
She remembered hearing about it in the museum. This brand of bicycle was sold for about 80 silver dollars at the time. One silver dollar was roughly equivalent to 500 yuan in later generations. That means the bicycle was worth more than 40,000 yuan at the time. It was truly an expensive luxury product.
But how could such a rare treasure be in the hands of that salesman? Could he have other treasures in his possession?
In order to find out the truth, Lin Qingqing and Zhou Zhuo went to find the salesperson again.
When the salesperson saw Lin Qingqing coming back, he thought she regretted her decision and quickly hid himself, asking the fat woman to tell them that he was not at home.
Unexpectedly, Lin Qingqing just asked where the bicycle came from. She said that there was a part missing from the bicycle, and she wanted to ask the owner if the part could be replaced.
The salesperson was relieved when he heard that she was not there to return the car, and told her that the car was purchased from a family named Zhao in the neighboring village.
Lin Qingqing found the Zhao family overnight and found out the truth.
It turns out that the great-grandfather of this Zhao family once served as a eunuch in the imperial palace. Later, the last emperor named Aisin Gioro was forced to abdicate, and eunuch Zhao was also sent back to his hometown. Before being sent away, eunuch Zhao transported a large amount of jewelry from the palace, including this bicycle.
Eunuch Zhao was rich. When he came back, he brought back a singer named Hongxiu from a brothel in the capital. Eunuch Zhao was not a real eunuch. He retained his fertility when he was castrated. After returning to his hometown, he and Hongxiu had several sons and lived a comfortable life for many years.
Later, Eunuch Zhao and Hongxiu died, and their children and grandchildren experienced war, famine, and land reform. The treasures left by their ancestors were lost or handed in, and in the end, only this worthless old bicycle was left, and no one wanted it. It has been idle at home as a waste.
It wasn't until recently when someone in the family fell ill and needed a large sum of money that someone thought of buying this bicycle.
It just so happened that the male salesperson was asked by Lin Qingqing to help her get a bicycle last time, so he bought it.
Eunuch Zhao's grandchildren did not know the value of a bicycle and thought that it was good enough to sell it for ten yuan, which was better than selling scrap metal.
The male salesperson's idea was that even if Lin Qingqing didn't want the bike, he could repair it and ride it himself. After all, ten dollars was not a burden for him.
If both parties are happy to buy and willing to sell, the deal is done.
After Lin Qingqing found out the origin of the bicycle, she was sure that the one she bought was the leftover thing from the emperor named Aisin Gioro!
This means that in a few decades, this car will be sold for millions!
