Chapter 180 The Piano Used by Marilyn Monroe



Li Yi posted the message in the group, and immediately some group members responded.

"Wow, it's Boss Wolf! Boss Wolf has been very active in the group lately! Is Boss Wolf planning to buy a piano?"

Li Yi: "Yes, I want to buy a piano, preferably a world-famous one. Price is not a problem!"

"Old Turtle, we've got a job. Come out quick, Boss Wolf wants to buy a piano!"

"Old turtle, a big customer has arrived. Come out and greet him!"

Several group members directly tagged a group member with the username "Music Old Turtle".

Soon, "Music Old Turtle" popped up, tagging Li Yi and asking, "Boss Wolf, I'm here. What are your requirements for the piano?"

Li Yi: "Good sound quality, expensive, the more expensive the better!"

Since Zhou Luoxi's favorability rating is only 94 points now, not yet 95, and the money spent on her now can be returned at 50%, then naturally the more expensive the better.

Li Yi's simple and unadorned language immediately ignited the nerves of the group members.

"Wow, as expected of Boss Wolf, price is no problem!"

"Old Turtle, you've struck it rich! Bring out all your expensive pianos. Let Boss Wolf pick them out like flipping cards."

"Boss Wolf is really generous; he doesn't ask about prices when buying things, he only asks for the most expensive ones!"

"Music Old Turtle": "Boss Wolf, it's quite a coincidence. My music store just received a world-famous piano these past few days. It was consigned by a private collector to be sold in China."

Li Yi: "Oh? Let's chat privately."

The two quickly added each other on WeChat.

"Music Old Turtle" is actually named Zheng Wugui. His friends jokingly call him Zheng Turtle. Because he runs a business selling various musical instruments, he gave himself the online name "Music Turtle".

Zheng Wugui told Li Yi that the piano was Marilyn Monroe's small grand piano, which belonged to the sex symbol Marilyn Monroe during her lifetime. It was auctioned by Christie's in 1999 and successfully bid for by another celebrity for $662,500.

Now that the celebrity is getting older, he no longer wants to collect it and wants to resell it.

Li Yi thought this piano was quite good; Marilyn Monroe had used it before, and Zhou Luoxi would definitely like it.

"Old turtle, how much?"

Zheng Wugui, the "musical old turtle," replied, "Boss Wolf, this piano was worth $662,500 more than 20 years ago. The seller's bottom line is $10 million now."

Li Yi: "Okay, no problem! Are we in Shancheng now?"

"In the mountain city, is Wolf in a hurry?"

"Yes, I need it urgently. It should be delivered to me within half an hour. Deliver it to the Shancheng Yishu villa area."

"Music Old Turtle" Zheng Wugui quickly searched the map and found that the villa area was only a few kilometers away from him. He replied, "No problem! Boss Wolf, I can deliver it in half an hour."

Li Yi: "Okay, send me your card number and I'll transfer the money to you now."

"Music Old Turtle" Zheng Wugui immediately sent over the bank card number.

Li Yi immediately transferred 72 million to him.

Zheng Wugui, the "Music Old Turtle," was stunned and said, "Boss Wolf, why did you transfer so much to me? The exchange rate of US dollars to RMB is currently 7.0185, so transferring 70.18 million would be enough."

Li Yi: "It's alright, the rest is your reward for your hard work."

"Music Old Turtle" Zheng Wugui was overjoyed and said, "Then thank you very much, Boss Wolf! I will arrange delivery right away."

The piano issue was resolved immediately.

Li Yi returned to his seat and continued eating.

Lu Yuxuan said, "Why are you sitting down and eating in peace? Aren't you going to buy a piano?"

Li Yi: "It's already been purchased!"

Lu Yuxuan: "You're done shopping? We've only been eating for two minutes, and you're already done shopping?"

Li Yi: "Yes, I bought it online, it arrived very quickly."

Lu Yuxuan chuckled: "Li Yi, are you kidding me? You bought a piano online?"

Zhu Jiaming: "Buying a piano online? This is the first time I've ever heard of it. Good pianos are usually bought in physical stores."

Li Yi: "That's because you're outdated. Now you can buy everything online."

Lu Yuxuan: "If you buy a piano online, it will take at least two or three days for the courier to deliver it. By then, it will be too late."

Li Yi: "It won't get cold. It can be delivered within half an hour!"

Lu Yuxuan: "So fast? Impossible!"

However, Li Yi just smiled and didn't bother to explain further.

The group had no choice but to eat first; they could wait half an hour, after all.

Zhou Luoxi drank red wine, and she toasted with everyone at the banquet, the toasts flowing freely and blessings echoing throughout.

Twenty minutes later.

Li Yi's phone rang: "Hey, Boss Wolf, this is Old Turtle. I've arrived at the door of your designated location."

Li Yi: "Okay, I'll come out to meet you!"

Lu Yuxuan frowned. Was Li Yi trying to find an excuse to leave?

“Li Yi, I’ll go with you.” Lu Yuxuan followed along.

Zhou Luoxi was worried that Lu Yuxuan would say something inappropriate, so she followed her.

They opened the door and saw several porters carefully carrying a huge object covered with an exquisite cloth.

Zheng Wugui, known as "Music Old Turtle," is a middle-aged man who is easily recognizable by his business shirt and the leather bag he carries.

Li Yi walked over to him and said, "Are you Old Turtle President Zheng?"

"Music Old Turtle" Zheng Wugui was startled and asked, "Are you Boss Wolf?"

Li Yi nodded.

Zheng Wugui, the "Musical Old Turtle," was stunned!

"Seeing is believing, Mr. Wolf, you're so young?!" Zheng Wugui, the "Music Old Turtle," was truly astonished.

Wolf, who was known for his generosity, was someone he thought was quite old, but he turned out to be so young, looking only in his early twenties.

Li Yi smiled and said, "President Zheng is as elegant as ever. Then please carry the piano inside. I'll need President Zheng to introduce the piano to everyone later."
