Rebirth: The No.1 Dandy - Chapter 148
The old man smiled bitterly: “it’s not bullying my lonely old man! They took a fake thing to deceive me. I saw through it. They were ashamed and angry, so they fought against me.”
Xiao SA is curious. Are there fake things these days? He said, “Sir, what fake things do they cheat you with?”
Old man: “Hey, it’s not something particularly valuable. It’s just some pots and pans.”
Xiao SA understood that it refers to porcelain. There must be no high imitation porcelain like that in previous lives in this era. The fake things said by the old man should refer to post imitation and have collection value, but they are certainly not as valuable as the original.
Xiao SA asked tentatively, “Sir, it seems that you are familiar with the antique industry?”
The boss smiled bitterly and said, “what’s the use of familiarity? I’m a rag collector. I don’t have money to collect good things, which only increases my troubles!”
Xiao sprinkled his heart with joy: “what do you call me, sir?”
Uncle: “my name is Lai Buyi, but few people call me Lai Qi. I’m the seventh in my family.”
Ah, Lai Buyi, Lai seven, ghost eye seven ha! In the life before his rebirth, he was the leader in antique collection! He is the chief expert appointed by CCTV’s “National Treasure Collection” column. No one dares to have any objection to the antiques identified by him! Such a great God, I didn’t expect to be so poor now! Why call him ghost eye seven, ghost eye ha? What else can escape his eyes? There are too many true and false antiques. In the ghost’s eyes, everything is revealed!
Xiao SA was ecstatic, but he didn’t show his face. He said, “seventh master, where do you live now?”
Lai Qi: “what good place can I live? I live in a compound, right in the alley over there.”
Xiao Sa: “can you take us to have a look?”
Lai Qi: “what’s there to see? Come with me if you don’t mind.”
Xiao SA pushed his bike and followed Lai Qi around the alley with Danlu. He came to a large courtyard. The courtyard is really a miscellaneous yard. There are front yard, middle yard and backyard. There are dozens of people from more than ten families. Lai Qi lives in a wing room in the west of the backyard. When the people in the compound saw Lai Qi, they greeted him with a smile. A charming semi-old Xu Niang walked around with her nose in her face. She scolded while walking: “ghost eye seven, why didn’t you die outside?”
Lai Qi was very angry: “well, you Pan Jinlian! Where do you want to complain? You live in my yard and don’t pay the rent. You expect me to die outside, a wolf hearted bitch!”
I’m afraid this situation is common. The half old Xu Niang is not angry. She replied, “you deserve to ask me for rent? Save it, ghost eye 7. You’d better be honest and collect some junk!”
Lai Qi: “I can’t clean you up. Someone will clean you up one day!”
Half old Xu Niang said, “I’ll wait! I’m afraid of you.” after that, she threw a wink at Xiao Sha and twisted her ass out of the yard.
Xiao SA was funny and asked Lai Qi, “did this woman really call Pan Jinlian just now?”
Lai Qi: “her real name is Pan Jinhua, but people in our compound call her Pan Jinlian. She is full of energy!”
Xiao Sa: “you just asked her to pay the rent. Is this courtyard yours?”
Lai Qi: “isn’t it? The government implemented the policy to return the property right of the big house to me last year, but there are more than ten families living here, but the government doesn’t care about resettlement and let me collect their rent. But where can I deal with dozens of people in more than ten families in the yard? Not only can I receive less than half of the rent, but also I have become their public enemy!”
Xiao Sa: “don’t want to pay any?”
Lai Qi: “I don’t know. As long as one doesn’t pay, everyone won’t pay.”
Danlu said childishly, “why don’t you ask the government for help?”
Lai Qi: “How can the government help? Drive them out? I haven’t looked for them. The people of the government frankly told me that it’s all right to return the property right of my house! There’s no way for the government to help me drive people out? Let me collect the rent myself if I have the ability. If I receive it, it’s mine. Don’t blame the government if I can’t. all the people live in the government. The government is the government of the people. It can communicate with so many people What are the people doing? ”
Xiao SA lived a heavy life, experienced in human relations and insightful in world affairs. Why don’t you understand? I don’t ask any more questions. Except for a bed, Lai Qi’s room is full of rags, scrap iron, old books and newspapers, stacked disorderly, and didn’t see anything good.
Money doesn’t leak. Xiao SA naturally understands. He just doesn’t know where Lai Qi hides good things, and whether he has good things.
Xiao SA thought for a moment and said, “seventh master, you often go through the streets to collect rags. Can I ask you a favor?”
Lai Qi: “you said, as long as I can do it, what can’t? Brother, you just saved me. I haven’t asked your name yet?”
Xiao SA told him his name and said, “seventh master, I’m a student of Beijing University. I want to buy or rent a house near here. I want a bigger one and a quieter one. Can you help me?”
Lai Qi: “that’s great! I’ll pay attention to it for you.”
Xiao Sa: “if there are quadrangles for sale, you can also help me pay attention. No matter how much, I want it as long as the price is right.”
Lai Qiyi was surprised: “brother, do you want to buy a quadrangle?”
Xiao Sa: “isn’t it?”
Lai Qi: “do you want my courtyard?”
Xiao Sa: “do you want to sell this compound?”
Lai Qi: “what else can I do? I’m so old that I can consume more energy than the dozens of scoundrels in the yard? You’re different. You’re so young and have plenty of time. I can sell it to you at a low price. It’s enough to get a coffin!”
Xiao Sa: “how much do you want?”
Lai Qi stretched out five fingers.
Xiao Sa: “fifty thousand?”
Lai Qi shook his head: “five thousand. As long as you take out five thousand yuan, I’ll sell it to you. But I just transfer the property right of the compound to you. I don’t care about anything else. If I could manage it, I wouldn’t sell it to you at such a low price.”
Xiao SA doesn’t know Lai Qi’s mind. Now the compound is nominally his, but in fact it belongs to more than a dozen families living here. They can’t even collect the rent and hate him one by one. What good taste can he have in his heart? What’s a bit like the owner of the yard?
Having figured this out, Xiao SA said without hesitation, “OK, I’ll take it.”
