Chapter 72 Pre-ordered Buyer
The parrot was quite obedient. Before entering the house, it said "Congratulations on your prosperity" to Xu Youyou. After Xu Youyou bought the orchid, it changed its words to "Beauty, prosperity".
Xu Youyou thought this little thing was quite interesting. Anyway, she already had a dog at home and there were so many housekeepers, so she didn’t lack a parrot.
The boss didn't expect such a pleasant surprise, and he raised the price with the same old excuse: "Beauty, my parrot is not ordinary. It can be said that it is the smartest parrot on this street. It can talk as soon as it is taught. Last time, a boss offered 50,000 yuan but I didn't sell it to him."
Xu Fang rolled his eyes when he heard this and said, "Your parrot is the most common monk parrot, and the market price is only three or four thousand."
The boss was not embarrassed at all when he was exposed. Instead, he said, "I can tell you've never had a pet. I've had this parrot for half a year. It's like a family member to me. How can I sell off a family member so easily? It's a priceless treasure to me."
Xu Youyou: "I'll give you 100,000."
The boss immediately changed his tone: "Congratulations, beautiful lady, it's your family now!"
Xu Youyou: ...
Xu Youyou knew that this was a businessman who was greedy for money, but she almost couldn't hold back when she heard this.
She still remembered the innocent lady persona she had created: "Great! Today I bought both the flowers and the birds I like!"
The boss said: "What a beautiful day!"
The boss hopes to meet such a sucker every day.
When Xu Youyou and Xu Fang left the store, carrying a pot of flowers and a bird, the boss kept waving at Xu Youyou from behind: "Beautiful lady, come back next time, I'll leave all the good flowers for you!"
Xu Youyou did not leave the flower and bird market immediately. She asked the bodyguard to send the spoils back to the car, and she continued to stroll around the flower and bird market.
[Congratulations to the host, you have completed the task of picking up leaks, and received the reward: Intermediate Porcelain Appraisal Technique. ]
After receiving the reward, Xu Youyou shopped more enthusiastically in the flower and bird market.
Xu Fang didn't quite understand what Xu Youyou was doing today. She whispered, "Boss, I lost money on those flowers."
Xu Youyou nodded: "I know."
Seeing that Xu Youyou had no intention of continuing to explain, Xu Fang did not dare to ask any more questions and followed behind in silence. She only asked to join in the bargaining when Xu Youyou needed to bargain.
"This pot of Phalaenopsis is pretty good. I bought it."
"What is this? A money tree? Very inspiring, I want it."
"Kalanchoe? It's a good omen. Give me two pots."
Xu Youyou bought things as she walked. If she hadn't brought so many people with her, she would not have been able to carry all these things.
In less than half an hour, almost all the shop owners in the entire flower and bird market knew that a sucker had come. As soon as they saw Xu Youyou, they doubled the price of flower pots and flowers. But Xu Youyou actually took all the credit.
When leaving the flower and bird market, the two cars were filled with more than a dozen pots of flowers, large and small. Xu Youyou was holding a large bouquet of flowers in her arms, which made her look more like a rich lady who was detached from the world.
But as the car returned to the hotel, the innocence on Xu Youyou's face disappeared completely.
"This pot, this pot, and these three pots, send them to my room." Xu Youyou casually pointed to five pots of flowers in full bloom, including the pot of Jianlan that she bought at first.
After closing the door and leaving the room alone, Xu Youyou carefully observed the pot of Jianlan.
To be precise, she was not looking at the orchid, but the flowerpot.
She wiped the dirt off the body of the flowerpot with a wet towel, revealing the rose-purple luster of the pot. The mouth of the flowerpot was in the shape of a crabapple, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, with four legs. The overall look was like a purple morning glory with dew on it on a summer morning.
Xu Youyou couldn't help but sigh at the high level of craftsmanship of the ancients, it was so beautiful.
After admiring it for a long time, she raised the flowerpot above her head and looked at the bottom of the pot.
As she had guessed, the bottom of the basin was pitch black with old mud, making it impossible to tell what the original bottom of the basin looked like.
Xu Youyou still carefully wiped the bottom of the basin with a wet wipe. When she saw the words "Chonghua Palace" and "Jin Zhao Yucui Yong" on the bottom of the basin, her eyes instantly burst into amazing light.
No matter how much she liked the flowerpot, she had no intention of keeping it, but picked up her cell phone.
"Jun kiln flower pots, are you interested?" Xu Youyou asked.
She doesn’t have many WeChat friends, most of them are classmates. Among the few, one of them has his WeChat account pinned to the top of her list.
The remark is "Lu Datou".
Lu Datou: "Is it from the Song Dynasty?"
Xu Youyou looked at Lu Jingyao's reply speed and almost suspected that this man was always guarding his phone. Then she thought that he was a big boss who was busy with all kinds of things, so she put this strange idea behind her.
In the Lu Group's conference room, a room full of group executives were listening to Lu Jingyao's scolding with their heads down, but suddenly the voice stopped.
They carefully raised their heads and looked towards the man at the head of the conference table, and immediately saw a scene that they would never forget.
Lu Jingyao, who always had a cold face, now raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
"Is this a smile?"
"The living devil can actually laugh?"
Executives make eye contact.
Then they saw Lu Jingyao, who never replied to any text messages during meetings, actually picked up his phone to send a message.
Such unprofessional behavior actually happened to a workaholic like him! Xu Youyou didn't expect that Lu Jingyao was still in a meeting so late. She could only answer regretfully when faced with this question: "No, it's the craftsmanship of the Qing Dynasty's Imperial Household Department, from the Qianlong Palace. It's really beautiful."
Xu Youyou took a few photos and sent them over.
Lu Jingyao was indeed a person who appreciated others. He said, "Keep it for me first. The price is negotiable. Let's meet tomorrow, okay?"
Xu Youyou didn't think much about it and said casually: "I can keep the things for you, but I'm not in Shanghai. It will probably take a few days for me to return. We can only meet next week."
Lu Jingyao's eyes narrowed.
When the meeting was over, all the participants left, leaving only Assistant Liu.
"Why didn't you tell me that Miss Xu was going to Gansu Province to visit the set?" Lu Jingyao asked.
Assistant Liu was startled when he heard this, and said helplessly: "Boss Lu, this is a society ruled by law, it's not right to randomly investigate other people's private schedules."
Assistant Liu could actually send a private detective to follow Xu Youyou. He did this many times when investigating the company's competitors.
But he didn't do it this time. He knew that once they became a couple, the private detective issue would become a thorn in their side, and he didn't want to become a stumbling block between the couple.
Although Lu Jingyao asked Assistant Liu to investigate Xu Youyou before going abroad, his investigation only checked some public information and did not involve Xu Youyou's privacy.
Lu Jingyao was rarely left speechless, so he could only say helplessly: "Forget it this time, but if you do the same when investigating other things, I will doubt your ability to do your job."
Assistant Liu nodded and said, "Boss Lu, Miss Xu's company has only one crew in Gansu Province, directed by Ouyang Ouyang, starring Song Zhibai..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw Lu Jingyao's face darken, as if he had heard something extremely disgusting.
"Looking at my recent schedule, I have postponed everything that can be postponed, and dealt with things that cannot be postponed in advance." Lu Jingyao said.
Assistant Liu asked, "Mr. Lu, are you going to take a vacation?"
Lu Jingyao glanced at him and said, almost gritting his teeth, "I'm going to Gansu Province to see the porcelain I ordered in person."
I found a picture of the museum. The real objects are really beautiful~ (End of this chapter)
